Food Reserves on the Dragon's Back

Silas woke up sweating profusely, seeing the unfamiliar darkness in the familiar dwelling before him, and he couldn't sleep anymore.

He always thought that a mortal like him would surely die before Sarannar.

He also thought that maybe before he died, Sarannar was already tired of his aging body, after all, it was normal for the nature of dragons.

He even thought that maybe one day he and Sarannar would die together on the air battlefield of Andorcia, just like many dragon knights before, as long as there is war, such death is inevitable after all.

But in any case, they shouldn't end up like this. As usual, he fell asleep peacefully beside Sarannar with the satisfaction of love, but when he woke up, he suddenly couldn't see him again. Sarannar is dead, and I can't find even the slightest clue.

For a moment, he even wished that Sarannar was dead, clean and painless, instead of suffering some terrible torture somewhere he didn't know.

He himself was frightened by his own thoughts, and then he decided that even if he spent his whole life, he must find Sarannar, whether he was dead or alive, he must know what happened to Sarannar.

Regardless of the fact that it was still dark, Silas got up with his clothes on and went to Silver Stream City again.

By the time he got home, it was almost daylight.

Since Mom moved away, several members of the Smiling Hand, including Barristan, have lived here permanently, using this place as the headquarters for the special task of finding Sarannar.

Seeing Silas with a pale face, Barristan said in surprise: "Master Silas, I was just about to find you. We have found Lord Saranar's whereabouts."

"What?" The dizzy Silas almost thought he was dreaming. He had dreamed of such a scene several times recently. He pinched himself, and the real and clear pain immediately revived him. "Tell me, what did you find?!"

This is the No. 13 day when Sarannar disappeared. Silas himself had no hope, but hope suddenly fell from the sky.

Barristan said that the members of the Smiling Hand faction in other countries finally sent back the news they had inquired. On that day, Sarannar flew northwards, flew over the northernmost country on the continent, and then flew out of the sea. No one has seen his whereabouts since.

The ocean to the north of the mainland is called the endless sea, because no one knows whether that sea area has an end. All the residents on the mainland have always believed that the unreachable sea level is the edge of the world. Brave sailors tried to explore the world on the other side of the ocean. As a result, most of the ships that went deep into the endless sea never returned. Only after many years, the occasional debris washed ashore by the waves showed that one ship after another was destroyed. tragedy.The sailors who survived by chance all sang the vagaries and ruthlessness of the endless sea. They narrated the huge thunderstorm cloud like a mountain, the moving fog and the strange song when it fogged, the dangerous undercurrent under the sea surface and the eternal sea. The endless hurricane, and the huge sea monster that could split the ship in two with a single tentacles.

If Sarannar really flew into the Endless Sea, then no one can guarantee his fate.

Silas eagerly returned to the top of the dragon. He had to tell Xue Feng about the situation. If he wanted to go to the vast sea to search for traces of Sarannar, it would definitely not work without the help of the dragon clan.

For a long time, the attitude of the leader of the dragon clan has been the weathervane of the dragon group's actions.When Sarannar was still there, most of the dragons and their knights lived in peace, but in the past few days, except for Xiancel, whose walls are full of decorations, she is reluctant to bear her hard work and willingness to fight. The dry knight Yelan, and most other dragons who don't like humans have expelled their own knights, showing their intention to occupy the top of the dragon and never allow humans to enter.

As a result, the entire Dragon Summit panicked. When Silas took the cable car up to the barracks area, he was immediately overwhelmed by various inquiries.

"Master, what does the Dragon Clan mean? Are you planning to stop cooperating with humans?"

"Will the Dragon Knights be disbanded?"

"We are not allowed to enter the lair area today, and maybe even the barracks area will be occupied tomorrow. Will we simply attack Silver Stream City the day after tomorrow?"

"You are the leader of the Dragon Knights, you have to think of a way!"

Silas was not in the mood to pay attention to them. He pushed aside the noisy crowd and came to the entrance of the lair area. The young red dragon Casco was still entrenched there with a few young dragons, blocking all humans who wanted to enter the lair area. Fortunately, they also recognized Silas, the leader of the dragon knights, and let him in.

Xuefeng's cave was also very lively today, many dragons that had turned into human forms gathered together, as if they were having a meeting to discuss some important matter.Seeing Silas approaching, they both stopped talking in unison.

Silas shared the news about Salanar in public, and he looked at Xuefeng eagerly: "Only the strong wings of the dragon can be fearless of the undercurrent and storm of the endless sea, please send the dragon to search immediately, Xuefeng grown ups!"

Xuefeng remained silent.

"What's wrong?" Silas looked at her with a bad premonition suddenly rising in his heart.

"If the wings of the dragon clan are really able to fear the storm, why didn't Saranar come back again?" The human-shaped Xue Feng lowered her beautiful eyes and said with a sad tone, "Even if the never-ending hurricane on the endless sea It is also very dangerous for the strong dragon clan, I am their leader, and I cannot let them take such a risk for an unrealistic purpose. Sorry, human."

Silas was stunned: "...I originally thought that only human beings hoped that he would disappear forever. It turns out...you don't want to find him back..."

He raised his eyes and scanned all the dragons present: "Do you all think the same?"

Those dragons caught by his sight couldn't help turning their faces away, avoiding the human's gaze.

"What you said is extremely rude and offensive, but I can understand the anxiety and sadness in your heart, and I don't blame you." Xuefeng looked at Silas lightly, and said calmly, "Maybe you are used to seeing It is an ugly situation among human beings to fight each other for power and position, but this position only means a burden and responsibility to me. I hope that he can return safely and take on this heavy responsibility for me more than anyone else. If we can confirm that Sa Lannar is still alive, so he should be rescued no matter what, but he has been missing at sea for so many days... Accept the reality, humans, the number of dragons is so rare, you can't give up for the search that is doomed to be fruitless. members, each of whose life is as precious as Sarannar's."

"...I understand." Silas let out a breath, and said in a surprisingly calm tone, "Sorry for disturbing you, Master Yukikaze, farewell."

Then he turned around and walked out of Xuefeng's lair. Xuefeng looked at his back and sighed softly.

Contrary to what Xue Feng thought, Silas did not intend to resign himself to his fate and calm down, but calculated in his mind how much money he could raise in the shortest possible time.

Saranar gave him a lot of assets back and forth, but unfortunately most of them were not in cash. He didn't have time to think about how to sell those treasures and manors for the best price. If he sells it urgently within the time limit, at least he can exchange it for a few thousand gold coins. This money should be enough for him to go to the Kingdom of Illus in the northernmost part of the mainland and hire a ship.

Although Barristan was temporarily persuaded to work hard to help him find the trace of Sarannar, but for such a search that obviously has little hope and no return, he cannot guarantee that Barristan and the smiling hand will be willing to give No matter how much support you give, you can only try to find a way to win it. After all, if you can get assistance from the smiling hand, it will be much better than fighting alone.

While thinking this way, the red dragon Harrog, who had changed back to his original form, flew over with his strong wings and stopped him on the mountain road in the lair area.

"Humans, stop," said Harrog, in dragon form, magically speaking in a human voice.

"Lord Harrog, what's the matter?" Silas had to stop and look up at him.

"Tsk, I have to say, as a leader, there is nothing wrong with Xuefeng's actions." Harrog's virtual voice was like thunder, "But I just don't like her cold attitude, go and put my Put on the saddle, and I will take you to the endless sea."

Silas was stunned for about ten seconds, until Harrog couldn't help urging him, he suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly said: "...Thank you so much! I'll go right away."

As he spoke, he immediately ran to Harrog's cave.

"Make no mistake, stupid human, I didn't do this to help you." Harrog grunted dissatisfied.

Harrog's knight Cassan had already been driven out of the lair area by him, and when Silas started to tie up the largest saddle in the entire Dragon Peak, Harrog immediately flew out of the dragon pinnacle.

Unlike Sarannar, Harrog didn't care much about the feelings of the knight on his back when he was flying. Silas had to lower his body, hold the windproof helmet with one hand, and learn to adapt to this wild and unruly way of flying .

Even a dragon as strong as Harrog had to fly for several hours before crossing the coastline of the Kingdom of Illus and flying into the sky above the boundless endless sea.

Closer to the coastline, the Endless Sea still looked mild, but when they were about to lose sight of the coastline, the storm on the sea became astonishingly powerful, and Harrog had to flap his wings with all his strength to protect Will not be blown into the sea.

As for Silas on his back, he was completely speechless by the violent wind.But he still tried his best to open his eyes, which were almost closed by the wind, and searched for possible clues on the sea level, but no matter how far he looked, there was only a boundless deep blue below, and the endless sea was rolling A huge wave tens of meters high is enough to smash any ship made by humans into powder.
