Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords

#123 - When I woke up, the sky fell

Sophia Onser Ledescao was a pure silver dragon. She ran away from Dragon Island, sneaking out so she could collect her own treasure.

If she could obtain the title of Silver Dragon Queen, that would be even better.

Then she could strut back to Dragon Island and slap that old woman's face with the golden soles of her shoes.

Just thinking about it made her excitedly bubble from her nose.

"Sophia, that day is coming!" she encouraged herself. When she scanned the treasures she had collected in the wilderness, her dragon eyes were filled with infatuated delight: "Hehe, my little darlings, let me count and see if any are missing."

The memory of a dragon naturally goes without saying. With just a glance, Sophia could tell if their positions had changed.

"I wonder if Gorgon is secretly collecting treasure for me as I instructed."

Satisfied, Sophia turned her thoughts to other things.

Living on Dragon Island, her parents had instilled in her the idea that the human world was very dangerous, and that humans loved to become dragon-slaying heroes to prove their bravery.

One of her distant uncles, already a middle-aged dragon, went out to adventure before she was born and never returned. It was said that he was captured by humans and imprisoned in the palace, toiling day and night until the dragon lost weight.

So she stayed in her lair without going out, fearing that she would be discovered by these dragon slayers.

Fortunately, she discovered a kobold with dragon blood. Just seeing her magnificent and heroic figure, the kobold bowed down, and she then smoothly appointed it as the commander of the dragon legion, ordering it to gather followers in the name of the dragon and secretly collect treasure for her.

"This wilderness is chaotic and disorderly. As long as I don't wander ostentatiously in the sky, I definitely won't attract the attention of the surrounding kingdoms. Once I've collected enough treasure, I can return to Dragon Island and buy my own lair."

Thinking this, Sophia walked outside. After sleeping for so long, it was time to get some fresh air. If Gorgon performed well, she could take the opportunity to praise him.

Arriving at the cave entrance, it was blocked by a boulder. The silver dragon muttered a dragon incantation, and the boulder turned into a pile of yellow earth and scattered on the ground.

As a silver dragon, magic was like an instinct engraved in their blood, and Sophia controlled a type of earth manipulation magic.

The warm morning sun shone on her dragon scales, and the breeze caressed her face. Sophia couldn't help but squint comfortably.

Looking at the vast sky, an unspeakable feeling burst forth in her heart. Sophia couldn't help but open her huge dragon wings and roar in a low voice:

"Come out, my servants!"

Since taking in the wild natives who had surrendered, this group of followers couldn't wait to stay by her side every step of the way. Whenever she came out, they would flock to her, praising her strength and magnificence.

At the same time, the lord, hiding on the top of the hillside, looked blankly at the slender silver dragon below.

"Have we been discovered?"

"Shouldn't be, right?"

Zat, who was also lying on the hillside, subconsciously scratched his butt, only to realize that he was wearing iron armor and could only give up helplessly.

"It's possible that it has detection magic. Our disguise is as laughable as an ostrich burying its head in the sand in its perception."

"It already considers us its servants before the battle has even begun. This dragon is very confident in its strength. This is an unprecedentedly powerful enemy!" The lord's face was serious. After only a moment of hesitation, he made a decision, jumped up from the ground, and raised his arms and shouted: "Hogg, pull out our big babies!"

To be honest, this silver dragon was much weaker than Li Wei had imagined.

Generally speaking, the legendary dragons are mostly four or five hundred feet long (one foot is 0.3 meters, five hundred is 150 meters) or more, with a wingspan of more than three hundred feet. It can be said that they truly blot out the sky and sun, and just looking at them makes it impossible to resist.

Not to mention the distant ones, even the "Thorn Queen" who is active in the dark swamp. It is said that this black dragon is three hundred feet long and is the real behemoth in this world.

And what about the silver dragon in front of us?

Its body is slender and graceful, and its dragon scales gleam with beautiful silver light, but it is at most one hundred feet long and has a wingspan of eighty feet. Perhaps it is still huge compared to humans, but compared to those famous dragons, it can only be considered a young dragon.

Swish swish swish!

As the lord stood up, a group of orc barbarians lying on the ground jumped out one after another.

Sophia looked at the row of dark heads suddenly protruding from the surrounding hillsides, and the fully armed ironclad warriors were dumbfounded.

Wait, where are my followers? Where are my servants?

What are these big iron cans?

With a creaking sound, seven giant ballistae were carried up the hillside by a group of ogres. The huge crossbow bolts were already loaded, and they could be fired instantly by pulling the trigger.

They were only a hundred paces away from the dragon. For a ballista, this distance was like putting the crossbow bolt on the dragon's head.

Looking at the huge arrowheads facing her, gleaming with cold light, Sophia's legs weakened with fear, and her heart was filled with tears.

I just took a nap, how did the sky fall when I woke up?

The posture of this group of people clearly showed that they were here with ill intentions, and they were clearly here for her, even preparing seven ballistae specifically for dealing with dragons.

Could this be the dragon-slaying squad that the old woman spoke of, specializing in slaying dragons?

Sophia didn't give up. She roared sternly, waving her huge dragon wings to make her body look as large as possible.

"I am the Silver Dragon Queen, mortals, you have successfully provoked..."

Unfortunately, the next second, a huge crossbow bolt whizzed past her ear, scaring her to retreat several steps, and she couldn't say the last words.

Glancing back, the crossbow bolt pierced through gold and cracked stone, and was already embedded in the mountain rock to the root.

If this had hit her, would she still be alive?

"Who the hell shot that!"

The lord's nose was crooked with anger, and he roared, "You crooked handle, when we get back, His Lordship will have you practice crossbow shooting every day!"

It was one thing to shoot in advance without orders, but it was also crooked.

"Boss, my hand is shaking," an orc warrior said somewhat embarrassedly.

He had grown up listening to stories of dragons since he was a child, and now he couldn't stop his excitement when he saw the real thing.

"Useless," Li Wei said, disappointed.

Fortunately, the silver dragon didn't know if it was frightened or was being held down by the ballistae, and stayed in place without daring to move at all, let alone fly into the sky.

If it dared to do so, it would definitely be shot into a sieve in the next moment.

Originally, according to Li Wei's idea, if the dragon was really terrifyingly strong, then he would have to kill it even at a price.

But this silver dragon made the lord have different thoughts - capture it alive!
