Red dragon: in charge of natural disasters

Schroeder's speech finally ended, and the crowd became angry and started to protest.

"That evil dragon must pay the price!"

"The tyranny of the Ember Kingdom must end!"

"Justice and order in the North cannot be destroyed!"

"One day, his dragon head will be chopped off and used as decoration!"

Schroeder looked around and saw that the atmosphere was almost complete, and then said in a deep voice:

"Now, I have found a special way to trap that red dragon, but I am weak and need your help."

"."

Suddenly, there was silence in the hall.

The people who were so generous just now are now silent in unison, as if a group silencing technique has been cast on them.

After all, it's one thing to say it, but it's another thing to do it in person. That giant dragon is a terrifying existence that can destroy 30,000 coalition troops on its own. Although everyone says they want to slay the dragon, no one is stupid enough to do it. risk.

Schroeder noticed everyone's silence, but there was no look of disappointment on his face.

These low-level spellcasters were not the targets he came to win over this time.

His peripheral vision glanced at the "starry" lady.

I saw displeasure in the other party's beautiful blue-gray eyes, with no intention of responding at all.

Schroeder, who is good at observing people's emotions, has long noticed that although this Ms. "Stars" has strong spellcasting ability, she is obviously not experienced in the world and is a bit indecisive. In terms of dealing with people, she can even be described as "immature".

——This is why Schroeder dared to interrupt her just now. If it were a powerful senior spell caster, he would never dare to do this.

However, the "Stars" lady just expressed doubts that she had lost face, and she was obviously not Schroeder's target.

Thinking of this, he looked at Mr. Yu Huo.

The noble young man with black hair and golden eyes, his handsome face was full of indignation at this moment, as if he couldn't wait to kill the brutal red dragon.

Yes, it's him.

With powerful spellcasting ability, power behind him, and a sincere heart for pursuing justice, isn't this the perfect villain that Schroeder expected?

In fact, not only Olivia, Schroeder also discovered the "flaw" in the transformation technique, and his unconcealable arrogance in the subsequent exchange process, which made him guess that Mr. "Yu Huo" was most likely a golden dragon. .

Justice is the creed engraved in the blood of every golden dragon. These paranoid guys spend most of their time in disguise to "fish for law enforcement." Many of the killers and robbers who prowl the world's desolate lands meet a swift end when their seemingly helpless victims are revealed to be golden dragons in disguise.

Golden dragons will not rest until the evildoers have been defeated and killed or judged, and they are not satisfied with anything less than complete victory over evil.

Schroeder did not hesitate to offend the senior spellcaster, but also wanted to create this desperate atmosphere of evil coming, just to make this guy who was suspected of being a golden dragon take the bait.

Sure enough, Mr. "Yu Huo" took action.

"Snapped!"

He looked around contemptuously and said loudly:

"Is the justice that everyone here just kept talking about just a joke?"

"Mr. Gray Eagle, I, and the forces behind me, are willing to give all the help we can to help you subdue that brutal red dragon!"

"Your Excellency Yu Huo, thank you for coming forward and contributing to justice and order in the North."

"Your Excellency Gray Eagle, there is no need to say more. Slaying the evil dragon is only what I should do, and it is also the duty of any person with a righteous mind.

"You, you...I don't know what to say anymore."

Schroeder rushed forward, held Cassius's hand tightly, and looked grateful.

"What a golden dragon that is easy to deceive. When they both lose, I can catch them all in one fell swoop. By then, I will become the hero of the entire Northland."

Schroeder thought to himself.

"I will definitely do my best to 'help' you."

Cassius also thought to himself, an imperceptible hint of amusement flashing across his golden pupils.

The two hands clasped together and agreed to fight together against the brutal red dragon that was ravaging the Northland, and to do so at all costs

——This scene is like the beginning of an epic story told by a bard, full of strong heroic spirit.

However, the true face of this scene is that the evil mage under the vampire shook hands with the incarnation of the red dragon, and agreed to defeat the cruel red dragon himself. The reason was to fight for justice.

Seen this way, it seems extremely absurd.

In this way, everyone was happy with the meeting.

People all praised the righteousness of His Excellency "Yu Huo" and wished them a successful crusade against the red dragon, bringing peace to the people of the North. Of course, the more important thing is to maintain their high aristocratic status.

The meeting ended and people left.

Schroeder left a teleportation coordinate and invited Cassius to a secret place specially prepared by the Principality of Bosque tomorrow morning to discuss specific cooperation matters.

Cassius did not leave in a hurry, but stayed where he was and waited. Sure enough, the "Silver Star" Olivia stopped him again.

She hurriedly chased after him, with a hint of worry in her blue-gray eyes.

"Angel, you can't trust that human easily. He is lying. My prophecy spell tells me that he is probably the subordinate of the vampire duke. He is definitely not a good person."

"Of course I know."

Cassius replied calmly.

Olivia was a little confused: "Then why did you agree to him?"

Cassius looked at the sky, with a touch of determination in his golden pupils: "Because now there is a greater evil hanging over Anzetta. I must unite all the forces I can to get rid of the raging red dragon."

He looked at Olivia and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Don't worry, I won't let any evil go. When Gray Eagle helps me kill the red dragon, I will get rid of him without hesitation."

"I will bring true justice and order to the entire Anzeta, and even the entire Erezege. This has also been my goal all along."

"you……"

Olivia was stunned.

In her only more than seventy years of dragon life, she had only a few contacts with golden dragons, and most of the people she got along with were silver dragons of the same race.

Compared with the paranoia of golden dragons, silver dragons usually do not take it as their mission to eradicate evil. They prefer to live in a gathering place of humanoid creatures and enjoy life. Unless they face aggressive enemies, they will not take action easily.

Although Olivia had fought against the Dragon Witch Cult, he had never seen an existence as dedicated to eradicating evil as the "golden dragon" in front of him. This made her feel a little strange, but also inexplicably moved.

Seeing that the silver dragon was being frightened, Cassius used the [Smooth Talker] characteristic to fully activate his firepower.

"My father, Castro, once said this to me fifty years ago: With great power comes great responsibility."

"This world has given us metal dragons incomparable power. We must also shoulder the great responsibility of eradicating all evil. This is the rule of the world."

Olivia couldn't help but sigh: "Angel, your father is really a great and wise golden dragon."

Cassius looked into her eyes and said in a serious tone: "Olivia, I have investigated it a long time ago. That red dragon is very powerful, beyond your imagination. It can even cast nine-level spells."

Olivia's beautiful eyes suddenly revealed a look of surprise.

"How can this be?"

As an advanced spell caster who has studied spells for more than fifty years, few people understand the difficulty of casting nine-ring spells better than she does. It is a dream that most mages cannot achieve in their lifetime.

But a red dragon that is not good at casting spells, or even a red dragon in its youth stage, can cast nine-ring spells. This is really bizarre.

"Nothing is impossible."

Cassius's tone became more serious.

"So, if I don't participate in the Arcane Hermitage next time, it's probably because the operation has failed. At that time, I will leave a message on the battlefield of Beifeng Castle to tell you that I have discovered the secret at the cost of my life. Information about the red dragon.”

"When the time comes, I hope you can search for it and hand it over to the righteous."

"good……"

Olivia was silent for a while before answering softly.

"Angel, don't always think of things so bad. His Majesty Bahamut will protect you. I hope I can see you again at the next Arcane Retreat."

"I hope so."

Cassius replied nonchalantly, as if he had already put his own life and death aside.

He stared at Olivia's faintly twinkling blue-grey eyes, thinking that he had finally been fooled by this silver dragon, and he was just waiting for her to deliver the goods to his door in the future.

…

Strafburg, Avengers Vault.

This is a secret base specially prepared by Archduke Leo of the Principality of Bosque for Schroeder and other people who have lost their country. The location is extremely secretive. Even the snake spies of the Kingdom of Burning Ember are unaware of its existence.

Schroeder and six former Lachman court mages gathered here, waiting for the arrival of collaborators.

The space was distorted and a portal opened.

The noble young man transformed by Cassius walked out. He looked around and stared at the mages.

In his eyes, these were all level four mages, not worthy of his attention.

Schroeder quickly led people to greet him, with a flattering smile on his face: "Your Excellency Yu Huo, welcome to your arrival. We homeless people have been waiting for this moment for too long."

Cassius said calmly: "The situation is urgent now. You don't need to say anything. If the red dragon is not removed, the countries in the North will be in crisis all the time."

He paused, and a look of suspicion appeared on his face.

"I just want to know, what confidence do you have to compete with that red dragon? Is it just you court mages?"

"Of course not, please don't be anxious, Mr. Yu Huo."

Schroeder said with a sneer.

He took out an old parchment scroll from the secret cabinet in the secret room.

Cassius's eyes narrowed slightly, and he suddenly became alert. He could feel the dangerous aura on it - it was a forbidden secret method for the dragon clan.

[Wagnard Dragon Binding Array]

8th level conjuration

"Dragon Mad Black Mage" Wagner developed this spell out of his endless obsession with dragons in order to study them forever.

Because the power of the dragon is too powerful, this spell needs to be cast by more than twenty spellcasters, or by a legendary caster, and uses the blood and scales of the real dragon as a primer. It can bind a dragon whose life level has not reached the ancient dragon stage.

Wagner, Cassius knew this name, this was also the famous boss of Anzetta in his previous life.

A hundred years ago, he was kidnapped and became a member of the Cult of the Dragon, forced to serve the evil dragon and the Dracolich. That was until a hungry red dragon devoured his wife alive, driving Wagner mad.

From then on, Wagner became crazy and obsessed with the power of dragons. He captured Anzetta's white dragon, built the Night Demon Tower, and even transformed his own daughter into a half-human, half-dragon monster, becoming the so-called "dragon". Crazy Black Mage".

Cassius frowned slightly, with anger in his tone.

"Is this something from the Night Demon Tower?"

"How dare you cooperate with that lunatic Wagner?"

Schroeder obviously did not expect that the other party would know about the mysterious mage, and quickly defended: "No, we don't know the origin of this scroll, we just want to use him to deal with the red dragon."

Cassius said coldly: "Your Excellency Gray Eagle, I think you should be able to guess my identity."

Powerful pressure spread out, and cold sweat fell from Schroeder's forehead. He trembled and said, "Of course, you are a golden dragon, guarding the existence of justice and order."

Cassius snorted coldly, displaying the arrogance of the golden dragon.

"It's good to know. Human beings, I will cooperate with you, but don't try to take advantage of it to do any tricks."

"Yes, Your Excellency Yu Huo."

Schroeder took out his handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Your Excellency Yu Huo, our plan is this. You will transform back into your true form, confront the red dragon head-on, lure him to a place we have agreed upon in advance, and then I will activate the magic circle to bind him."

"certainly……"

"I also need your scales and blood."

He secretly glanced at "Yu Huo" and felt relieved when he saw that there was nothing unusual about the other person's expression.

Cassius questioned again.

"You mages alone are not enough to cast this eight-ring spell."

Schneider replied respectfully: "I am calling on spellcasters from all over, but there are very few responders, and it may take several months of preparation."

Cassius said bluntly: "We don't have so much time. The people of the North are always in danger."

Schroeder said helplessly: "But there are really few spellcasters..."

Cassius interrupted without hesitation: "I have dozens of spellcasters who can be summoned immediately. I also have coordinators in Beifeng Castle who can provide a safe area for you to place the magic circle. ”

"So, when can we start taking action?"

"A month."

Schroeder answered honestly.

"It takes at least a month for an ordinary mage to learn to draw a part of the magic circle. This magic circle is too high-level and can only be drawn once. Once it is drawn, it will be completely forgotten. And I will be the master controller of the magic circle. "

"Very good, I will send his casters here one after another. I hope you can succeed in a month."

"Yes, Your Excellency Yu Huo."

…

North Wind Castle, where the [Magic Coin] Guild resides.

"Five hundred and one, five hundred and two..."

"We recently posted it!"

The guild leader of Magic Coin, Charlotte, who is already a fourth-level mage, is happily counting the gold coins in the guild warehouse. Their guild has recently taken on tasks in the city and earned a lot of gold coins.

Suddenly, a camp mission appeared on his panel.

【The Hidden Mage】

[Schroeder, the court mage of the former Rachman Principality, is planning to take revenge on Cassius, the King of Embers. Please summon 20 players, disguise themselves as relatives of the golden dragon Angel, and sneak into the Avengers secret room in the Principality of Bosque...]

[Reward: Each person in the camp contributes 15,000, totaling 2,500 gold coins]

"Why is it the mission of the second and fifth boys again?"

Charlotte was still complaining, but when she saw the mission reward column, her eyes suddenly widened.

"Damn, the reward is so high?"

Their guild originally started out as a young man, and they are very skilled in various businesses. I am afraid they will make a fortune directly this time.

"Wuhu, take off!"

"Brothers, hurry up and keep up!"

"Magic coin, come with me to the battle!"

Ignoring the crazy looks from ordinary residents, Charlotte yelled in the guild station.
