Chapter Twenty-Eight: Walk on Fire
After receiving the news of the dragon beast's attack on the village, both Moria and Nostradamus put aside their work for a while, preparing to visit the warriors in the main city of Moldavia. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As a result, in the hall of the lord's mansion, they saw Joshua who was ready to go out, as if he was going to go out directly, and he didn't know what to do.
"Joshua, what are you doing here?"
The first to arrive was Moria, who lived in an inn not far from the center of the city in the main city, and was working on the architectural blueprints of the Rune Factory, when he learned that a village had been attacked by dragons, killing and wounding many people, he immediately came to visit Joshua.
Originally, the old dwarf thought that he would see a warrior who was thunderous or dull and angry, but he never expected that Joshua would actually have a calm face, just put on a battle suit, and his body was full of various props, looking like he was going out to do a big job.
He was not a novice, as a dwarven warrior who had lived for more than a hundred years, Moria could certainly see that this was the most formal and serious battle uniform of a warrior on the Mycrof continent when he was lightly armoured and armoured.
On the side, Ying and Rin stood behind Joshua, the two whispered in a low voice, and the silver-haired girl also asked the same question in her own underground confusion: "What is this going on, master?" ā
And Rin looked at the calm warrior with a helpless face, and said softly: "Sister, don't look at the master who looks calm and rational now, in fact, he is already mad...... Since I was in the study just now, I have been saying that I want to go to the Northland Ice Fields to slay dragons, and I can't stop ...... at all."
No matter how whispered the conversation between the two gods was, it couldn't hide from the ears and eyes of the gold-level warriors, Moria was not far away, and naturally heard the conversation between the young men and girls, he was startled, the metal ring on his beard kept trembling, and the old dwarf immediately stepped forward and said to Joshua in surprise: "My friend, you're not joking, are you?" I know you're angry about the attack on your territory, but how did you come up with the idea of slaying a dragon? ā
His voice was puzzled, and at this moment, Nostradamus also came to the hall, he could be regarded as catching up with the tail of this conversation, and hearing the conversation between Ying and Rin, the white-haired elder also immediately opened his mouth to persuade: "Yes, Joshua, although it was the dragon beast attacking the village this time, it has nothing to do with the group of white dragons on the Northland Ice Field. ā
"Moreover, there are at least a dozen adult dragons in the White Dragon Peak of the Northland Ice Field, and at least one dragon leader is entrenched, although there is no old dragon of the Extreme Intention Rank, but if you act rashly and impulsively like this, there will definitely be problems."
And Joshua, who was originally standing at the door and was about to go out, helplessly watched so many people blocking the door, came to persuade him, and couldn't help sighing, he calmly explained: "Master Moria, Master Nostradamus, I'm not mad, I'm not impulsive, I think about the follow-up before I go." ā
All things considered, you shouldn't go out!
Although he didn't say this, the expressions of the old dwarf and the old mage undoubtedly meant it.
Nostradamus was silent for a while, then frowned, and said with some hesitation: "Joshua, as far as I know, although this dragon beast attack has a wide range, including the four realms of the Northland, it is not without similar incidents in history, just like in the winter of more than two hundred years ago, there were five consecutive Black Tide attacks in the Northland, and that time there were also dragon beasts flying around the fortress to raid the village...... Why did you spot the white dragons on the ice field and have to trouble them? ā
And the old dwarf nodded in agreement, which was also the problem that bothered him.
And Joshua touched the huge nail straddling his waist, this nail was the length of a man's arm, and countless runes were engraved on the tip, flashing with strange colors, and there were obvious traces of poison in the long blood groove. These nails are specially used to bleed large creatures, in a sense, equipment designed to slay dragons.
He turned his head to look at the old mage, thought about the wording for a moment, and then shook his head and said, "Master Nostradamus, maybe Moria, they don't know the cause of this incident, but you, you should know. ā
He paused, then said heavily, "Abyss tokens." ā
Without waiting for the old mage to reply, Joshua raised his head, his red eyes looked at the ceiling, and he continued: "Last time in the Black Tide, I took out a derivative of the Abyss from the body of the mammoth beast, that thing has obviously been transformed by Chaos, and one of my subordinates has confirmed to me that this chaotic creation has an obvious and incomparable Northland White Dragon Breath, and combined with the rumors of the five-colored dragon clan colluding with Chaos that circulated in the far south at this time, the matter is already obvious. ā
The warrior lowered his head, looked directly into the eyes of the silent old mage, and sneered, "How can a dragon beast be idle and attack humans? Their intelligence is higher than that of the average beast with only instinct, and how can a human, a creature that suffers from endless suffering, be better than the natural pieces of meat like the mammoth and the herbivorous dragon? If you say that there is no one behind this dragon beast attack, I can't believe it. ā
"How do you know...... Obviously, the Royal Mage Association is still researching, and this information is a top-secret ......"
After listening to Joshua's words, the old mage subconsciously asked a rhetorical question, but Nostradamus also quickly recalled Joshua's profession.
The Chaos Warden, the most obvious class in the world that senses the aura of chaos, also has the Azure Orb on him - this makes sense.
However, the old mage still had some doubts...... Joshua is a lord in the northern part of the Northern Empire, and there is a whole continent distance between him and the Far South Kingdom in the southernmost part of the continent, even if he knows some information about the Far South Five-Colored Dragon Clan, it is also the credit of the information network operated by the royal secret agent for many years, an earl, it is impossible to know this.
How did he know about these things?
But even if he was very confused in his heart, he still had to try to persuade Joshua: "But my friend, Joshua, what you said is indeed very possible, but maybe this thing can only be speculation, not evidence." ā
Speaking of this, the old mage couldn't help touching his beard, and said with some sorrow: "The white dragon is different from the general race, the five-colored dragon is a whole, they have civilization and wisdom, there are words and inheritance, there are even giant dragon cities on the Dragon Island, they live in territories all over the world, it is the result of the negotiation between the dragon king of the Dragon Island and the countries, you rush to attack, it is to destroy the relationship between the two, the empire has just defeated the orcs in the Northwest Plain, and they urgently need to recuperate, and they don't have the energy to confront Dragon Island head-on......"
"There's a fart relationship."
Roughly interrupting Nostradamus's persuasion, Joshua expressed disdain for this: "The dragon calamity is about to appear, and at that time, you must want to kill the five-colored dragon more than I do." ā
At this time, the warrior was not in a hurry to leave, he said in a deep voice: "Listen, you are just bound by past relationships and have scruples, but in fact, this is also part of the layout of those dragons, these dragons from other worlds have been planning for this for tens or hundreds of years, and have an incomparably detailed plan, as long as this plan is launched, the human country will suffer heavy damage...... The fall of the orc god made the five-colored dragon gods feel a sense of crisis, and they chose to let their plans unfold in advance, and the current dragon beast attack was just an accidental accident caused by the early unfolding. ā
He said it aggressively, as if it were the truth, and Nostradamus and Moria, who were present, glanced at each other, and didn't know whether to believe it or not.
Joshua wasn't the kind of person who liked to lie, but it was a little difficult to get the two to believe what he said.
"However, I don't plan on asking you to help me, you know, this kind of detailed plan is most afraid of accidents."
Joshua waved his hand, motioning for Ying and Rin to follow him, and then prepared to bypass the two, and the warrior said as a matter of course, "And my existence is the biggest surprise. ā
"I'm different from others, I don't care about the contract between humans and dragons, the relationship between Dragon Island and the Empire, I only know that dragon beasts killed my people, and those white dragons are behind the scenes - dragons kill people, I kill dragons, what's wrong?"
It's a matter of course.
"Although I have overlooked some things before, but it is not too late, it is none of my business how detailed their plans are, as for the evidence, I just need to slaughter these dragons and find evidence from their lair, and you will naturally believe my words and assist me."
Speaking of this, Joshua had already walked to the silent old mage's side, he looked directly into the eyes of the white-haired mage, and said solemnly: "Listen to me, Nostradamus, go back to the imperial capital now, and tell the emperor that your majesty, if you start mobilizing the strong to hunt down those five-colored dragons now, the loss of the empire in the dragon disaster in the future will be much smaller." ā
After saying that, he took Hotaru and Rin and walked directly to the door.
"Need help? Joshua. ā
Moria was silent for a moment, and then asked before the warrior opened the door and left, the old dwarf's eyes full of sincerity: "You can take me back from the other world, or I can accompany you to the ice field to slay dragons, don't have to worry about anything." ā
"As long as you speak, I will bring some of the strongest warriors in the rune dwarf clan to help you."
Hearing this, Joshua's back paused for a moment, and then the door opened, and before his figure disappeared, a reply with a smile came: "No need, Master Moria, all you have to do now is to hurry back to the dwarven gathering area and strengthen the defenses underground." ā
"Dragons aren't just flights."
And after Joshua left, Nostradamus and Moriath looked at each other, and the old mage sighed softly: "I am really old...... There are also many scruples. ā
After finishing speaking, he shook his head, and his body was also shrouded in bursts of dark blue ripples, and the old dwarf hurriedly stepped forward at this time and took the mage's hand: "Friend, take me for a ride, send me back to Black Steel Town first!" ā
"Then hurry up."
As soon as the words fell, after a wave of time and space, the two disappeared into the lord's mansion.
At this time, Joshua was in the stable.
He came to the stable, and saw the black that was still like a dragon, lying up and sleeping in place, and then he simply kicked it in the stomach, and the dragon-blooded war horse, which was originally sleeping in a daze, felt that someone was kicking his stomach, and immediately opened his eyes in anger, but after an instant, it saw the face of its master, and after an embarrassing snort, the horse immediately became disciplined and stood up honestly.
"After sleeping for so long, it's time to exercise."
Touching the black skin, which had formed a hard carapace and some raised spines, Joshua felt the burning heat in his hands, laughed, and then took a special stirrup and saddle for him, and turned over and mounted.
Ying and Rin also each rode a war horse on the side, and without any hesitation, the three masters and servants simply rode their horses and galloped towards the outside of the city.
Running on the black frozen land of the Northland, Hei let out a hiss excitedly, it has been sleeping for so long, and now it can run freely in the vast world, and its heart is naturally very happy, in this agitated mood, the power of the blood force in Hei's body also began to pulsate slowly, providing it with sufficient physical strength.
The power of the bloodline became more and more vigorous, and under the hooves of this war horse, countless fire elements began to gather, and slowly, as the gallop accelerated further, a crimson flame began to burn under the black hooves. (To be continued.) )
