Red dragon: in charge of natural disasters

Outside Beifeng Castle.

One after another noisy noise filled the surrounding areas.

"For the Burning Nest!"

"Occupy Beifong Castle!"

The swarming flying dragons covered the sky like turbulent dark clouds, and the crowded kobolds and goblins covered the earth like turbid tides.

The sky and the earth outside Beifeng Castle were all occupied by the dependents, and to everyone in the city, this scene looked like the end of the world.

"Oh my God."

The city guard standing on the city wall looked up at the sky and muttered to himself.

The dragon knights of the Ember Nest flew over the city, dropping leaflets persuading them to surrender like snowflakes.

The leaflets were filled with the favorable treatment promised after surrender, a replica of the contract they were loyal to, Duke Brad Luckman, and even images of blood slaves from Northwind Castle.

Finally, there is a heart-wrenching sentence——

[Do you really want to be loyal to a vampire until death? 】

Never-before-seen bards from the School of Anecdote appear in the city, and these bards use their talents to mesmerize the audience. By the time the applause ends, viewers will likely find themselves questioning everything they hold dear, from their faith in the clergy of their local temple to their loyalty to their monarch.

What these poets narrate are all the dark past of the Luckman family.

Before these anecdotes and poets could finish telling them, they were taken away by the guards and even hacked to death on the spot, in order to serve as a warning to others.

But the poets were not afraid at all, and shouted before they died:

"One life can be exchanged for thousands of contributions. This life is worth it!"

"For the Burning Nest!"

For example, at this moment, a bard player with the ID "Lonely Like Snow" was dragged by the guards and shouted loudly: "I will smile to the sky from my horizontal sword to save my liver and gallbladder!"

Although people couldn't understand the meaning, they could hear the impassioned tone.

He was then taken to the street and beheaded on the spot.

With a swish sound, a head rolled down and blood splashed everywhere, scaring many timid people to tremble.

Soon, some different sounds appeared in the city, perhaps deliberately induced by someone, or perhaps naturally.

People soon came up with a terrible suspicion - those "traitors" who were captured may have really become so-called blood slaves and sacrifices to Duke Brad Luckman. Thinking of the previous devil's contract case, , it all became logical.

But no one dares to speak out such thoughts, which will only lead to death.

They can only silently hide this speculation and fear in their hearts, but when the time is right, they will eventually explode.

At the entrance to the Ceremony Hall of Beifeng Castle and on the Eagle Square, the panicked citizens were called together.

Perhaps they learned the lesson from Earl Dawson's death in shelling, so they did not set the meeting place close to the city wall.

The general military commander of Beifeng Castle and the apparent supreme commander - Earl Brandon looked around.

In the square under the high platform, there are nobles in gorgeous clothes, soldiers in armor, beggars in ragged clothes, and peasants covered with patches. They are all gathered here at the moment, their eyes full of fear and uneasiness.

"The Duke said that time must be delayed at all costs."

"As long as you complete the great ritual, everything will be solved."

"We must bring out the last possible use of these people."

Thinking of this, Brandon spoke slowly.

"Citizens, I understand your fears."

"After all, the enemy you are about to face is the legendary 'Purgatory Scourge'. The evil dragon that once destroyed 30,000 coalition forces may be the most terrifying, powerful, and evil monster that has appeared in Anzeta in the past hundred years. Our entire army together is probably not a single enemy of that monster.”

The crowd was in an uproar.

Even though the army of Ember Nest has besieged Northwind Castle, and even though the news is flying all over the city, there are still quite a few people who don't know the authenticity of the rumors. Some even regard the so-called purgatory natural disaster as a way for the coalition generals to shirk their responsibility. Pretense.

But now, everything has been revealed.

"Yes, I have no intention of hiding it, and I can't hide it. The red dragon and their evil descendants have descended on Beifeng Castle and besieged our entire city. But are we going to surrender, surrender, and become slaves of the monster? Are you going to accept the cruel rule of the evil dragon?"

The crowd fell silent.

Earl Brandon looked around and looked at a middle-aged soldier in the audience.

"Soldier, yes, I'm talking about you."

"Please answer truthfully, do you have any children?"

Seeing the count personally asking the question, the soldier was a little nervous, but he still stumbled and answered: "Yes, yes, it's a daughter."

Brandon nodded slightly: "Daughter, it's very good."

"But as far as I know, that red dragon is the Dragon of Slaanesh, the Dragon of Fury. He once transformed into a ferocious human form more than four meters tall, bullied a beautiful girl wantonly, and then cruelly swallowed her. , This is a real case witnessed by the righteous people lurking in the dark.”

He paused deliberately, then stared closely at the soldier and continued:

"Think about it, when this evil dragon rules Beifong Castle, what will he do to your daughter? Can you watch your daughter suffer inhuman torture and eventually lose her life tragically? Can you? Can you bear to come home and open the door only to find your home in a mess, with only your daughter’s severed body and bloody remains?”

"No! Can't!"

As if thinking of such a terrible scene, the soldier's eyes suddenly turned red and his veins popped out.

Earl Brandon nodded with satisfaction, then turned his gaze away from the soldier and turned to a vendor.

"Excuse me, do you have a wife?"

"have."

It's the same routine again, with the same ending, but under the guidance of the count's exquisite words, this conversation makes the speech more inflammatory.

"It's almost time to heat up."

Brandon thought to himself.

Seeing that people's emotions were in place, Brandon finally looked around, looked at everyone present, and raised his sword high.

"Everyone here, no matter what your status is, whether you are a noble, a sergeant, a farmer or a merchant. At this moment, there is no noble duke, only an ordinary person. You, like me, are just children. Fathers, husbands of wives, and children of parents are all just people who want to protect their loved ones. So I would like to ask everyone here, can you allow your loved ones to be treated inhumanly and fall into the clutches of the evil dragon? "

"cannot!"

"Can't! Can't!"

The crowd was silent for a moment, and then started to rise and fall in waves.

Among the more than 30,000 citizens of Beifeng Castle, many people were indeed infected by the Earl's impassioned spirit, but there were also people who sneered at it and were simply swept away by the general trend of the crowd.
