Section 228, Red Dragon Legion
At Dante's repeated requests, Grandet reluctantly lent his company's airship to the Demon King's army. Since the Kingdom of Gilneth has collapsed, and the Griffin Kingdom is busy exterminating the undead monsters, the pressure on the Demon King Army has been greatly relieved. A blank corridor appeared at the junction of the Griffin Kingdom, the Hammer Kingdom, and the Demon King's Army, and the land jīng airship could easily pass through it to the "Red Dragon Wetland" located in the mountains west of the Hammer Kingdom.
The Red Dragon Wetlands are a mix of swamp and land, shrouded in clouds and mist all year round, and contain the lair of the Red Dragon Legion led by Crassus, the King of the Red Dragons.
The airship was fast, and it only took a day to fly from Cogwheel Town to the skies over the wetlands.
Dante stood on the deck of the airship, excitedly watching everything below. This is the second time he's gone far from his own territory, and this time, he'll face Crassus, the king of the red dragons, who is said to be on a par with the Black Dragon King Netsario.
"Dante......" Ash and Lisa come to him from the cabin to the deck. Dante saw the two beauties come out and said to them, "Now that the fog is thick and the temperature is low, you two should keep warm and don't catch a cold!" ”
"Hmm!" Ash nodded with a smile and looked at Lisa. Lisa seems to be very fond of reading forbidden encyclopedias, and she now carries them with her all day long.
“……”
Lisa didn't speak, but showed a nervous expression. She didn't seem to realize that she had a lot of magical powers. These things were told to her verbally by Dante and Ash, and she had no idea of it herself.
"Doesn't Lisa know how to use magic yet?" Dante asked, looking at Lisa.
"Ah...... I ......" Lisa became nervous when she heard this, and hurriedly shook her head and took a step back. She probably hadn't even thought about being a powerful magician.
"Dante, don't be in a hurry!" Seeing that Lisa was getting nervous, Ash hurriedly rounded up and said, "All this happened too fast for Lisa, give her time to take a break!" ”
"That's right." Dante nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Lisa is only qualified to be a magician now, but she needs a set of equipment to become a truly powerful magician." ”
With that, he turned to Lisa and asked, "Lisa, forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, Ash and I killed your mother's monster before. Do you resent us? ”
"Mama......" Lisa began to feel depressed when she heard Dante ask herself this question, as if remembering that terrible night.
"Dante!" Ash seemed a little annoyed, pouted, pulled Lisa to his side, whispered comfort, and then said to Dante, "What are you doing?" Why do you still say such things? Did you deliberately break Lisa's heart? After that, she seemed to be emotionally affected by the pain of Lisa's loss of her mother, and when she thought of her parents, her eyes began to glisten with tears.
"Lisa, I'm sorry." Dante knew he was going too far, he touched his head and said, "I just wanted to make it clear to Lisa, we were here to save her." Right? ”
"Lisa won't blame us!" Ash smiled and took Lisa's hand and said, "Although the two of us haven't known each other for a long time, we're already good sisters!" ”
"Oh......" Dante replied, continuing to ask, "where is Lisa, your father?" How's it going? ”
Unexpectedly, when Lisa heard this, she hurriedly said, "Ah, my father, he has died!" He is no longer alive. I don't want to mention him again! ”
“……”
Dante saw Lisa's reaction so strangely and guessed that her father might have done something sorry for their mother and daughter, but it was not easy to say.
"Master!" At this moment, Gade walked over and whispered to Dante, "The Red Dragon Wetland has arrived, just under the ship. You see, what do we do now? ”
When Dante heard this, he hurriedly walked to the edge of the ship's deck and looked down. Sure enough, it was foggy below, and the ground below could be vaguely seen as a mix of puddles and bushes. Then go to the bow of the boat and look ahead. There seems to be a hill ahead, not very high, but there are buildings to be seen on the hill!
Are those buildings perched on the hills the territory of the Red Dragon Legion?
"Whew...... Call...... Call...... Whew......"
Just as Dante and Gade craned their necks to look out, they only heard the sound of flapping wings in front of them, getting louder and closer, and it seemed that there should be a few dragons coming towards the jīng airship!
It's the Red Dragon!
A large red dragon with a few smaller dragons appeared around the airship. The big red dragon opened his mouth and shouted to the airship, "I am the chief general of the Red Dragon Legion, Valastaz!" Listen to the creatures that invade without permission, and leave the territory of the Red Dragon Legion immediately, otherwise, we will destroy you without mercy! ”
"Looks like the red dragon isn't as fierce as the black dragon? You would like to talk to us first. Seeing this, Dante asked Gade in a whisper.
Gade nodded and said, "Yes." The red dragon's xìng grid is much more docile than the black dragon. Master, we're here to ask the red dragon for help, be careful with your words, don't irritate them! ”
"Hmm!"
After listening to its reminder, Dante agreed, and then replied loudly to the big red dragon: "This Mr. Red Dragon, my name is Dante, and I have led my subordinates to visit the king of the red dragon, Crassus, and I have something very important to tell you. I hope you can help convey my words. ”
"Ridiculous!" Unexpectedly, the big red dragon was very unceremonious and directly pushed back his words, and rebuked loudly, "Mr. Dante, let me remind you again, please leave the red dragon territory immediately, otherwise I and my subordinates will be welcome!" We of the Red Dragon Legion have no interest in mortal affairs, and we will never interfere. Please come back! ”
"Huh" "What? ”
Before the big red dragon could finish speaking, Dante had already jumped up from the deck of the airship with the Demon King's sword in high and flew towards its back!
With a "snap", Dante landed on the back of the big red dragon with lightning speed, raised the demon king's sword, and plunged it into the dragon's back! The sharp blade pierced the dragon scales on the dragon's back and pierced into the red dragon's muscles, splashing blood!
"Whoa! What are you doing? The big red dragon was unexpected, he was so hard thrust by Dante, he turned left and right in pain, and even turned his body upside down, trying to throw him down, but Dante did not back down, grabbed the demon king's sword tightly, and no matter how the big red dragon rolled, he was dead on the dragon's back!
All the people on the airship and a few other red dragons were dumbfounded when they saw this!
"Intruder, you need to know what you're doing!" Enraged, the big red dragon opened his mouth at the airship, and black smoke began to rise from his mouth, as if he was about to spit fire!
"Smack"
Dante didn't let it spew fire, and hurriedly held the Demon King's Sword in his hand, and stirred the blade inserted into the dragon's body with all his might, stirring the muscles inside into flesh and blood! He was standing on the dragon's back, very close to the dragon's neck, and it was not impossible for him to cut off the head of the big red dragon with a sword now!
"Whoa!"
The big red dragon was obviously not hurt by such humiliation, and screamed in pain. It wanted to get rid of the big demon king by turning over, but failed, and wanted to attack the airship directly, but it was also stopped, and there was no way for a while, so it could only flip its body while flying, and Dante was in a stalemate.
"The other dragons are not allowed to move!" Dante stood on the back of the dragon and shouted at the other red dragons, "If you dare to move the airship, your head will be beheaded by me!" If you want to see it, just try it! ”
This was quite effective, and the powerful momentum of the Great Demon King suppressed all the red dragons at once. The big red dragon was injured very badly by him with the Demon King Sword, and he had no choice but to say: "Mr. Dante, you have something to say, you will fight and kill as soon as you meet, isn't it okay?" ”
"Hehe......" Dante didn't eat it, and said directly, "Take me and my people to Crassus!" I didn't want to embarrass you, but who told you to fight yourself? ”
Dante takes control of the Red Dragon in a blink of an eye, and it all happens so suddenly that Ash, Lisa, and Gad are stunned.
So, Dante rode on the back of the dragon, led by the big red dragon, and advanced deep into the territory of the Red Dragon Legion. (To be continued.) )
