Emperor Dragon

White Oak Island, Coconut Island, Thorn Island, Coral Island, Mangrove Island.

These five large islands are located in the Ocean of Storms, in the northwest of the Whirlpool Sea in the ocean. They are relatively close to each other and form an uneven ring-shaped island outline in the rough waters of the Whirlpool Sea. Together they are called the Four The island has a total land area of ​​about 700,000 square kilometers and belongs to the Rosen Kingdom.

As for why there are five islands in the Fourth Ring Island, it is because at the beginning, the relatively remote coral islands were not discovered.

After the fifth island was discovered, the name of the Fourth Ring Island has been called for a long time.

So there were no further changes later.

There are many biological groups inhabiting the Fourth Ring Island.

There are large beasts, undead, ferocious species, magical creatures, intelligent creatures and more.

Among them, the most powerful one is not the Ember Nest.

The Nest of Ashes refers to the true dragon army headed by the Red Dragon Lady. Because any enemy who dares to offend here will be reduced to ashes by the ferocious fire of the legendary red dragon and its retinue, it is called the Nest of Ashes.

Of course, although the power of Ash Nest is not the largest, it is undoubtedly the most difficult to offend.

Before the Red Dragon Lady came to Thorn Island from the Yaer Continent, the Four Ring Islands including Thorn Island, as well as the scattered small thousands of islands around the Fourth Ring Island, all belonged to the Rosen Kingdom, a kingdom of intelligent creatures.

The Kingdom of Rosen is also known as the Kingdom of Thousand Islands, but because most of the islands are very small, or even slightly larger rocks, the name does not live up to the name. The four ring islands are the most important component of the Kingdom of Rosen, and their importance is self-evident.

Later, Thorn Island, one of the four ringed islands, was occupied by the Red Dragon Lady, and all the Kingdom's garrison stationed on it were wiped out.

In order to recapture Thorn Island, the Rosen Kingdom launched three cross-island battles against the Red Dragon Lady.

Rosen Kingdom, a country with a thousand islands, has a small territory. After losing Thorn Island, it only has more than 500,000 square kilometers of land, but its national strength is quite strong, with a population of nearly 100 million.

Its overall strength is much stronger than that of Ember Nest.

But the victory of the battle cannot be determined by one factor. The Kingdom of Rosen still has other enemies and cannot concentrate its forces to deal with the Ash Nest. Moreover, because the war is launched across the sea, there are still troublesome issues such as troop transportation and logistical supplies, and The Red Dragon Lady is extremely powerful individually, and the leaders of her subordinates cannot be underestimated either.

In the end, the three battles ended with the Rosen Kingdom's three defeats.

This created the reputation of the Red Dragon Lady and the Red Flame Queen.

Due to many failures and the hostile threat from the Arvo Kingdom, the Rosen Kingdom temporarily gave up its crusade to the Ash Nest.

However, giving up the crusade does not mean leaving the Ash Nest completely alone.

The Thorn Island was occupied by a red dragon and had no choice but to make the Rosen Kingdom the laughing stock of many countries. After the conflict and friction with the Arvo Kingdom ended, the Rosen Kingdom would take back the Thorn Island at all costs. After all, It is a land they have inherited for more than two thousand years, and it is of great importance.

During this period, the Rosen Kingdom issued bounties through the Adventurer Association, hired adventurer teams from all sides, and continuously came to Thorn Island.

The purpose is to collect intelligence information about the Ash Nest for future attacks.

The total number of adventurers who died in the Ash Nest has reached hundreds.

However, the most indispensable thing on Planet Saka is adventurers with adventurous spirit. After some of these annoying guys die, there are still others.

At this time, another team of adventurers broke into the Ashnest territory.

This team is quite good, consisting of six people in total.

A spellcaster who is the core of the team, a ranger who is a scout, a low-level priest who can use healing, two burly warriors, and a mechanical warlock who has a special but not rare profession. A unique mechanical weapon.

Except for the Mechanic Warlock, who is a well-proportioned woman, everyone else is male.

These people form a standard adventurer team. Although the average strength level is not high, they can deal with a lot of troubles when they work together.

The caster is a young and rough-looking man, a spell caster from the Char Empire.

For an adventurer team, there are two completely different levels with spellcasters and without spellcasters.

Even if it's just a spellcaster who only knows some low-level spells.

Rustling. Waves of breeze blew by, and the branches and leaves between the dense tree crowns rubbed gently, making a rustling sound.

The six-man team moved slowly and cautiously through the dense forest, approaching the towering volcano in the field of vision.

Although it is called the Nest of Ashes, around the Red Dragon Queen's territory, extending from the Yakan Volcano as the center, is a deep and leafy forest, densely covered with low shrubs with spikes and vines that can suck blood. , man-eating flowers. Of course, there are also many valuable magical plants with special effects.

Even though the ground is covered with snow and covered with snow, these magical plants are still full of vitality.

In addition to spying on the information about the Ash Nest, if you can find some of the magical plants here and sell them, the adventurer team can also gain a lot of wealth.

A few minutes later, the moving adventurer team stopped.

The caster looked delighted and squatted down gently in a bush covered with a layer of snow.

Each thumb-sized red fruit exudes a faint luster and hangs in the branches and leaves of the bush.

"Red berries are low-level magic materials that can be used to make weak healing potions."

The lower caster did not have space props. After picking the red berries, he put them in a simple cloth bag and carried them with him.

"Not bad. These red berries can be sold for about two silver coins."

After counting the number of red berries, the caster said with a smile.

Just setting foot in the dense forest will bring you something, which is a good sign most of the time.

but.

In a dangerous territory where the legendary true dragon inhabits, it is normal for magic materials to grow vigorously and densely under the influence of the radiation from the true dragon's breath. They are basically not afraid of severe cold and grow very well in the ice and snow.

In the deep dense forest, several adventurers walked and stopped all the way, walking slowly and lightly. They were alert to the surrounding situation while picking various kinds of rich magic materials in the Ember Nest territory.

after a while.

In a place where the leaves are lush, the crown of the tree is thick, and the branches are covered with frost and snow crystals.

Looking at the clusters of grass swaying in the wind, with a faint flame-like luster in the plain white ice and snow world, and the strange dragon scale-like texture, the caster's face showed a look of surprise.

"I encountered Dragon Blood Grass. It's great. If we can successfully create the Dragon Vein Awakening Potion, countless people will pay a big price for it."

Dragon's blood grass is a magical material that only grows in the territory where real dragons live, and the probability is not high.

The caster's hands lit up with a faint elemental glow, and he began to carefully pick the dragon's blood grass, while other teammates were alert to the surroundings.

The dragon's blood grass must be intact to preserve the trace of dragon aura, and due to the imbibition of the dragon's aura, the dragon's blood grass is relatively fragile and requires very gentle movements. If it is accidentally damaged, it will lose its due value.

at the same time.

Just above the treetops where the ranger was, among the dense canopy of trees.

Using the light-twisting stance to become invisible and locking the smell, the color of the dragon scales completely blended with the surrounding light, and the breath converged to the point that even the rangers who were only a few meters away didn't notice it. The little dragon's eyes glanced at the people below in a strange way.
