Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire

"Where did this come from?"

Noah watched with great interest the picture projected on the image stone. It was an extremely terrifying scene of death, enough to stop a child from crying. People who were too weak to bear it might also be frightened to death.

The ice and snow flying down from the sky were eroded and assimilated by a far-reaching force, turning into a gray-white color symbolizing death. Under the gray-white snow mist, one can clearly see a blasted-out tower. Giant sinkhole.

This sinkhole is being continuously filled. From a high-altitude perspective, you can see countless densely packed, ant-like giants digging into the ice and snow, digging into the rock formations, and then transporting boulders to the sinkhole for construction.

At first glance, it doesn't seem to be scary, but if you look a little closer, you can find that the giant craftsmen who are building the city using the sinkhole as the foundation are clearly one after another with shriveled flesh and blood. In the pale eyes, A dead soul burning with soul fire.

This is a group of undead frost giants. According to their respective strengths in life, they were made into different levels of undead such as giant skeletons, giant zombies, giant ghouls, etc. for people to drive and enslave. In this regard, they They are the same, there is no difference.

"This is an image from the northern polar ice sheet. It is said that after an extremely rare meteor shower fell there, an undead natural disaster broke out. What we see now is a city of the undead under construction. ”

Sifreya, who came to report as soon as she received the news, answered solemnly.

Because this is a disaster that can affect the situation on the mainland, just like the abyss chaos and hell disaster that broke out previously.

"North? That's okay."

Although they were on the same continent, Noah immediately lost interest after hearing that it was a disaster caused by the explosion of the northern polar ice sheet.

In terms of geographical distance alone, the polar ice sheet is 60,000 to 70,000 kilometers away from Elisim, making it almost impossible to harm him.

Morally speaking, Noah could not find any reason to go to the northern ice plain. Although the undead disaster broke out there, what kind of races were the undead disaster causing?

It depends on what is on the ice sheet. The two most famous races on the ice sheet are the frost giants and the white dragons. They are natural enemies and have been fighting each other for countless years on the ice sheet.

Of course, apart from these two "powerful races", there are still some other races active on the ice plain, such as the crystal dragons among the gem dragons and the silver dragons among the metal dragons.

However, these two types of dragons are rarer than the other. Although the silver dragon is a cold dragon, it does not like to live in bitter cold places such as ice fields. The traces of civilization there are too weak.

Therefore, the dragon clan in the ice field is still dominated by white dragons. Although white dragons have the reputation of being the shame of the dragon clan, it is precisely because their bloodline is the weakest that the number of white dragons is quite large, far exceeding Any true dragon species.

In addition to these two powerful races, there are also ice and snow races living in the ice field that adapt to the environment, such as frost trolls, subraces of humanoid races, ice elves, northern barbarians, etc.

Therefore, Noah really couldn't find a reason to go to the north, because races that are extremely adaptable and can adapt to the environment within a few generations are often classified as monsters by the Dragon Clan.

Needless to say, there are a few exceptions, such as the ice elves, and the northern barbarians, to be honest, although they are human beings, their environment has created bad qualities such as being irritable, irritable, and arrogant and unreasonable.

And because of environmental factors, although there are resources, they are difficult to exploit. Therefore, the northern barbarians like to go south and enter regions and countries with warmer climates to plunder.

These races will naturally be classified into the evil ranks by the golden dragon. It would be great if the golden dragon does not cause trouble for them. Do you still want support? dream!

"Your Highness, this undead disaster is no small matter. According to incomplete statistics, there are more than thirty undead cities under construction now. In the deepest part of the ice field, there is also a Lich King who is awakening."

Seeing Noah's attitude of not having anything to do with him, Xifreya reminded him.

"knew."

Noah's response was still very lazy and he didn't intend to intervene at all.

The eastern and southern parts of the continent have been destroyed. What will happen if the ice sheet in the north is destroyed? He didn't believe it. The native creatures would be so wasteful that they would be completely wiped out by a meteor shower.

Even if there are some powerful undead spirits from outside the world contained in the meteors, under the suppression of the instinctive consciousness of the world, the more powerful the existence, the more difficult it is to move.

This is also the best time to counterattack. If there are strong enough people who are decisive enough to take action, they can directly strangle these undead souls that have not adapted to the environment and cannot exert their full combat power, causing them to die of suffocation.

However, at the moment, there is no such decisive strong person in the ice field. Those old guys who have lived through countless years and witnessed a lot of history seem to be waiting and watching.

Are there any powerful creatures in the ice field?

There must be some. Those white dragons that are distributed across the ice fields and appear at any time accompanied by snowstorms are the best symbols. Such a basic number of white dragons will definitely give birth to ancient dragons.

Although the ancient white dragon still belongs to the trash level, and Noah can now press it to death with one claw, the ancient dragon is only the starting point of a certain stage of the dragon's life, and there is a higher realm.

Ancient white dragon!

Above the ancient dragon, there is a higher realm

Noah felt that it was not surprising that there were several super old climbing dragons popping up in the vast ice field that covered tens of thousands of miles.

Of course, those super old dragons may not have woken up. Even with such a big commotion, they are still sleeping. For dragons, no matter what kind of disaster, a short nap will basically make it go away.

The material world is not so easy to fall. Even if the plane really falls and turns into a dead zone where no living creatures are allowed to live, they can change places to continue sleeping.

Dragons who can live for thousands of years basically look down on everything. They have long regarded the territories and wealth that ordinary dragons fight for as nothing. Except for the necessary material needs, they can ignore everything.

So, those old antiques in the native ice field are not in a hurry, so why should he, a young dragon separated by tens of thousands of miles, be in a hurry?

"The most anxious people now should be those elves, not us!"

Seeing that Xi Fuleiya wanted to say something, Noah interrupted her before she said anything.

If the old antiques on the northern ice field do nothing and watch the dead spirits that came with the meteor shower adapt to the world environment and grow stronger, then when the undead army takes shape, the first to bear the brunt is Middle-earth.

Among the several kingdom-level forces in Middle-earth, which one is closest to the north? The Elf King's Court!

That's why Noah didn't bother to care. With the foundation of the elves, is it a big deal to suppress a natural disaster of undead?

Of course it's not a big deal. They are so prominent that they can make seven gods descend incarnate in succession to bless the royal family of another country tens of thousands of miles away. With such a heavy foundation, why does he, a golden dragon, need to meddle in other people's business.

Although Noah sat on the high platform and watched the storm after receiving the news, the undead disaster that swept the ice field still indirectly affected him three months later.

Mainly in the city of Elishim, all orders for war-related factories soared, but the most severe increase was not military orders, but related magic products to restrain the dead.

The prices of magic products related to holy light and other attributes have skyrocketed one after another, followed by fire and thunder attributes, which have slightly weaker effects but also have restraining effects.

As the saying goes, demand determines the market. When there is a huge demand, the prices of related products will naturally rise accordingly.

Merchants are frantically pushing up the prices of goods. Such behavior should be sanctioned by the code. However, after a little investigation, it was found that most of the relevant orders came from the Elf King's Court. A dragon fairy serving the holy dragon directly said,

"Why set the price so low? Look down on the distinguished Middle-earth guests? They are not short of money, and you don't need to pity them."

Therefore, the price of an ordinary holy amulet can soar to 20 times before the outbreak of the Undead Plague. If it is a spell scroll used for attack, the price will be even more expensive.

This is a feast for merchants, but no matter how much they eat, they can't eat as much as a certain dragon, because more than 70% of the weapons factories in the city of Elishim are under its control.

In short, with the outbreak of the Undead Plague, Noah, who owns the first city in the East, has become rich!

The elves who are purchasing weapons all over the continent for war preparations, although they are so angry that their teeth are about to break, have to pay the bills obediently, because there are not many companies in the entire continent that can meet their needs.

The entire Middle-earth is preparing for war. Except for some small forces who want to make a fortune, no one will sell them at all. The South has been beaten to pieces and is still in the recovery stage. There are hundreds of countries in the West, and there is no force with strong productivity. They can buy the goods they need, but the quantity is not enough to satisfy them.

Therefore, even if the East puts on an arrogant attitude of buying or not, the elves can only grit their teeth and pay. Of course, it is mainly to pay on behalf of others, and they will not show up themselves.

"The Centaur Khanate on the grassland went south and requested to be attached to the Kingdom of Atlas."

Although the elves were slaughtered by the disaster, these are insignificant matters. What is really important is the impact of the Undead Plague on the continental situation after it gradually takes shape.

Life will find a way out. When a disaster is about to break out, the surrounding creatures will naturally know to escape.

The north is not only ice fields, but also infinite grasslands and highlands. Orcs, half-orcs, and many centaur tribes live on the grasslands.

Those grassland forces, facing the disaster that is about to break out in the north, resolutely chose to go south. The war broke out in full force before they were caught off guard.

The grassland tribes that went south this time did not just plunder, they also wanted land, which the original owners of the land would never agree to. This is the land of survival.

So, the war burned across the border between the north and Middle-earth, and the flames also burned to the east. A centaur Khanate migrated here with their entire clan, wanting to enter the east to seek a place to survive and develop.

Faced with such a centaur Khanate that actively sought to be attached, Urnos, as the monarch, was originally prepared to accept it. It was not a big problem to accept a centaur Khanate with a scale of two or three million with the land of the east.

Unfortunately, the Centaur Khanate that went south was not a civilized tribe. After migrating thousands of miles to the east, they lost a lot of people along the way. In a state of hunger and cold, they saw rich cities and towns, and without the order of the Great Khan, the many small tribes that made up the Khanate spontaneously looted.

Therefore, the Augustus royal family, who were rewarded with the king's order, saw cities and towns slaughtered by the Centaurs one after another after they arrived at the border.

Things have developed to this point, so there is naturally nothing to say. The predecessor of the Augustus family was a frontier noble, and any act of slaughtering the human race was not allowed by them.

Extermination order!

After learning that the sixteen border cities were massacred and all the property was robbed by the Centaur Khanate, which claimed to be affiliated with them, Urnos was furious and ordered the formation of a crusade army on the spot. He appointed his eldest son Alexander as the commander of the army and four legends to accompany the army to completely exterminate the Golden Horde.

Facing the counterattack of the Kingdom of Atlas against their slaughter, the Centaur Khanate, which took the initiative to surrender, was puzzled.

Their value was far higher than the mortals and lowly people they killed. Since the King of Atlas was ready to accept them? Why not clear out some land by themselves?

Unfortunately, no one answered the questions of these centaurs. Any messenger who begged for peace and mercy was beheaded on the spot. As the commander of the crusade army, Alexander's principle was to not see any centaurs who could breathe.

"In the first battle, we annihilated 300,000 enemies, in the second battle, we annihilated 100,000 enemies, and in the third battle, we annihilated 50,000 enemies. The gains are getting smaller and smaller. This battle report looks a bit ugly!"

Looking at the frontline battle report sent back from the capital, Noah looked at the performance of Augustus, whom he personally trained, on the battlefield, and smiled at Gwen beside him.

"That's because Alexander defeated the Golden Horde in one battle, and those legendary Khans led their respective tribes to flee in different directions."

Gwendolyn picked up the battle report and glanced at it. She was not confused by the decreasing numbers, but saw the information contained in the battle report at a glance.

It was not that the war was unfavorable, but that the front line was advancing too fast, so that the centaurs were completely defeated. Without morale, they did not dare to form an army to fight against them, and they collapsed at the touch.

Facing the centaurs who were all over the mountains and only cared about escaping, it was very difficult to fight an annihilation war.

Because what Alexander wanted to destroy was not a legion, but a country, a nomadic group that could migrate the whole country in extreme cases.

"What a pity! This Centaur Khan is still a fool. He can't even control his subordinates. He could have set a good example, but now he has set a bad precedent. From now on, the Kingdom of Atlas will no longer accept any tribes from the north."
