Ice and Fire: Reign of the Dragon

Chapter 16 The Missing Legion (Please read on)

Not feeling the blood fluctuations of worm-like monsters in the city, Longzel signaled everyone to follow him to the ruins.

The road to the ruins is not far. After all, in the heyday of Valyria, although the dragon kings often did not do anything anthropomorphic, the public facilities were still well built. Although the Doomsday Catastrophe destroyed everything, the remaining Valyria roads are still very flat.

If it weren't for the fact that horses could not survive in the toxic air of the ruins, they might be faster.

"Longzel, I can feel the effect of the magic fading." Valar could feel his mouth and nose getting a little hot, which was a sign of the gradual ineffectiveness of the protective magic.

"Drink the second potion if you feel something is wrong." Longzel also felt some changes in the blood in his body. It seems that he can't go too deep into the ruins. When he got here, the magic was on the verge of ineffectiveness.

Everyone took out the potion and drank it. Some of them could still hold on, but they took the potion out of caution.

"The magic can last for about seven days." Longzel gave an order. "Our search range is this city. Lynn, you and Ago follow us. Sebastian, Aslan, Amos, and Hoffa, each of you will lead a team. We will camp in the abandoned tower and act separately. Try to search for valuable items. Don't touch anything that glows or heats up. Return to the camp and report together after finding anything. Do you understand?"

"Yes, sir."

The red-robed monk stood beside Longzel without saying a word, with an extremely excited light in his eyes.

The crowd set up a simple camp at the designated location in an orderly manner, and then Longzel and his party set off first. They have the strongest magic protection in the team, and are responsible for expanding the search range and determining the safe area.

"My Lord, it can be seen that this is most likely the missing legion." Marah has studied in the Great Temple for twenty years. He is not only familiar with theological knowledge, but also has a certain understanding of the basic knowledge of the East Continent.

The red-robed monk carefully observed the human-shaped rock in front of him, and called Longzel, who was carefully searching in the ruins on the side, to come and see his discovery.

"Master Malach, what is this?"

Malach did not touch the rock, but pointed to the two protrusions on the top of the humanoid rock. "If I'm not mistaken." His voice recovered shortly after entering the ruins, and Longzel attributed it to the effect of the rich magic elements in the ruins.

"These are the black goat cavalry of Qohor." Malach continued. "The dragon kings will not allow the soldiers of the colony to appear at their doorsteps, so these soldiers must come from the outside world."

"Gods." Longzel looked at the densely packed humanoid rocks in the ruins and couldn't help but sigh. "What exactly happened here?"

"It's too long." Malach was a little regretful. "Magic can no longer work on rocks."

"Have you found anything here?"

Longzel shouted to the few people who were still looking for things in the ruins.

"Brother!" Rey shouted in response. "Come and help, there are good things!"

Lin En and Valar were also there to help, and Ago carefully supported the strange thing that could not be seen originally, but still had a human shape.

"This is." Longzel saw what Lin En and Valar were picking up at a glance.

It was a set of black plate armor that looked like a mirror.

"Valyrian steel armor, a complete set of Valyrian steel armor!" Valar was very excited, because even the Varezes family did not have a complete set of Valyrian steel armor.

"This should be the commander beside Emperor Orion at that time." Marah judged. "It is likely to be a branch of the Varezes family. With the arrogance of the Dragon King family at that time, it was a very common thing to equip the confidants around them with Valyrian steel armor and weapons. So."

"Brother, look at this." Ray dragged a long sword to Longzel as if asking for credit.

"Valyrian steel sword?" Longzel took the long sword that had been sleeping in the ruins for hundreds of years. The sword body was filled with strange red and black traces. It should have been invaded and polluted by magic elements when this legion was destroyed, but it did not affect the sharpness of this magic weapon at all.

A griffin, also carved from Valyrian steel, roared at the sword guard, with rubies for eyes, amethysts for teeth, and traces of gold on its wings.

"It seems that even if we can't find any clues to the dragon eggs or dragons this time, we can still make a fortune." Longzel smiled and helped several people take off their armor. Continue to search for a circle.

The harvest is quite rich.

Ago picked up a simple arakh scimitar made of Valyrian steel next to a cavalryman whose body was completely blown apart.

Rey's good luck brought the team a set of Valyrian steel lamellar armor and a spear head made of Valyrian steel. The spear body has long disappeared.

After searching around the periphery of the ruins, everyone began to search in the direction of the dragon.

When several people came under the dragon's skeleton. They realized how big this dragon's corpse, which had been torn into pieces and incomplete, was.

Even though it was already dilapidated, it was still like a mountain.

"According to the family history books, Emperor Orion's dragon is a cunning 140-year-old red dragon. Our ancestors rode it to wipe out the remnants of the Rhoyna people and won 12 dragon fights with other families." Longzel stared at the dragon in amazement. "I didn't expect it to be so big."

"Maybe our ancestors are still on the dragon's back." Valar joked.

"It seems to be real." Ray pointed at the back of the dragon with a trembling voice.

There was a mass of ashes that could not be seen clearly, and it was barely maintained in shape by a set of still shiny scales.

A pure silver Valyrian steel longsword was inserted beside the ashes, and two dragons roared on both sides of the sword guard, with their wings overlapping. A huge ruby ​​was inlaid, and a red mark like blood dripped on the sword body.

The family sword "Silver Blood" of the Varezes family.

There was also a lance that was also inserted on the dragon saddle whose appearance could no longer be seen.

It was also made of Valyrian steel.

"Ancestors, please forgive me, please forgive me." Longzel prayed silently. "Everything is for the family."

Then several "robbers" climbed up the dragon corpse like monkeys and stripped the ashes of Emperor Orion.

"Didn't you find the dragon eggs?" After climbing down from the dragon's back, Ray asked one by one without giving up.

"The ancestors wouldn't be stupid enough to bring dragon eggs with them when they rode dragons into battle." Longzel held his forehead with a bitter smile. "Let's look around again."

"Lord, we can switch to the next group." Malach reminded. "Everyone needs to rest, and you also need time to recover your magic power."

Longzel then realized that the blood in his body had become slightly cold.

This is not a good sign.

So he readily agreed to search for the dragon corpse again and then go back.

In an invisible corner.

A not-so-smooth stone suddenly flashed a ray of light.

Then it fell silent again.
