Chapter 248 Take Away Hope (Additional Update, Please Give Me a Monthly Vote)
The narrow and long pupils reflected Russell's tall and tall figure, and the Shadow Flame Dragon opened its eyes without warning.
"I'm sorry to disturb you, His Highness Shadow Flame." Lord Welch quickly bent down and bowed, apologizing to the Shadow Flame Dragon.
Russell followed closely behind and bowed: "Sorry to bother you, Your Highness Ying Yan."
The Shadow Flame Dragon did not respond, but only Russell's figure was reflected in its narrow vertical pupils. It was obviously staring at Russell for inspection.
this moment.
Russell felt a tingling sensation on his back, and a suffocating feeling of being oppressed by the mountain. For a moment, cold sweat broke out all over his body.
"Too careless!"
"You shouldn't think that the Shadow Flame Dragon has been seriously injured, so you should approach the Shadow Flame Dragon so recklessly!"
Thousands of thoughts flashed through Russell's mind, and he truly regretted getting so close to the Shadow Flame Dragon and putting himself in a dangerous situation.
Perhaps this journey has been too smooth.
When he went to see Archduke Kunstan in the Red Keep, he didn't reveal his secret. Then when he greeted the Shadow Flame Dragon in front of the headquarters camp, he also didn't reveal the aura of the Little Dream Dragon. So much so that now, he dares to look at Shadow Flame openly. A giant dragon.
Although a phoenix that sheds its feathers is not as good as a chicken.
But if you really think that the Shadow Flame Dragon will no longer possess the majesty of the dragon after suffering heavy damage, you are obviously a bit naive.
At this moment, Russell even wanted to call the unicorn Baoli, and then activate the Dream Escape Technique to escape from the Shadow Flame Dragon.
But he held back.
Because the Shadow Flame Dragon made no further movements, and he couldn't feel anything unusual about the M-shaped mark on the palm of his left hand, Little Dream Dragon might not really be exposed.
Moreover, even if exposed, Russell did not think that the Shadow Flame Dragon would harm himself and Xiao Menglong. It can accept the assistance of the torrent dragon, so why can't it accept a new dragon and develop secretly under its protection.
The worst case scenario would be to be driven away.
A dragon is never heard of hunting another dragon.
This is also the reason why Russell swelled. He felt that no matter what, he was on the side of the Shadow Flame Dragon. In any case, the Shadow Flame Dragon had no reason to attack the friendly forces - he and Xiao Menglong had no reason to do anything. Stealing the resources of the Shadowflame Dragon.
It was just a matter of borrowing a place, and the resources for the development of the little dream dragon were the two of them making enough food and clothing by themselves in the dark dreamland.
Without any grievance or enmity...
As expected, the Shadow Flame Dragon just stared at Russell for a while, and then stopped paying attention to Russell. Instead, it raised its head and looked at the Torrent Dragon flying in the sky.
Then.
Let out a majestic roar: "Roar!"
The sound was deafening. Lord Welch covered his ears and bowed to the Shadow Flame dragon: "Your Highness, Shadow Flame, we are leaving."
Then he quickly pulled Russell away from the Shadow Flame Dragon: "Don't disturb His Highness."
"Yes." Russell nodded, and the sweat on his body felt cold when the wind blew it away.
Suddenly, the torrent dragon flying in the sky roared not to be outdone, and its breath was long and tenacious: "Hum!"
The roar of the two giant dragons quickly alarmed the entire camp.
But soon, the Shadow Flame Dragon lowered its head in the confrontation between the giant dragons, and fell asleep on the ground again.
The Torrent Dragon no longer continued to hover, but flapped its wings triumphantly and flew towards the volcanic oasis.
Russell quietly retreated to the vicinity of the camp. Although the Shadow Flame Dragon did not harm him, he did not dare to sneak under the opponent's nose anymore - he was not afraid of ten thousand in everything, just in case the Shadow Flame Dragon looked unhappy with him. , gave him a mouthful of dragon flame...
At this time, he had already reached the coffin of Archduke Kunstein.
Passing by a tent, I happened to hear the voice of Swan Baron Quimbiff: "Marquis Arnaud, does it have to be like this!"
"Marquis Arnold, is that Arnold Lieyang of the Lieyang Royal Family?" Russell knew this person, the reinforcements sent by the Kingdom of Blazing Torrents. Of course, the real reinforcements were the giant dragons of Torrents. Marquis Arnaud was responsible for the outside of the battlefield. diplomatic.
He quietly paused and heard Marquis Arnold in the tent say lightly: "The Shadow Flame Dragon has compromised, and I can't stop the Torrent Dragon. Besides, this is what Archduke Kunstein promised when he sent someone to ask for help. condition."
"But you didn't put in any effort at all."
"If it weren't for the arrival of the Torrent Dragon and I, how could the Snow Giant Da have escaped? Mr. Kunbifu, although you have obtained the Shadow Flame surname, you have finally left the Shadow Flame Dragon Blood Family identity, so why should you care about this."
"That is His Highness Yingyan's hope after all!"
"No, that's not hope, that's just extravagant hope." Marquis Arnold said calmly, "Having hurt the origin twice, the Shadow Flame Dragon has... Sorry, I spoke a bit bluntly... In short, you should make plans in advance. "
With that said, Marquis Arnold opened the tent.
Russell hurriedly quickened his pace and left here, but he couldn't help but murmur in his heart: "What do you mean, what hope...Does the Torrent Dragon want to take away something? Is it the hope of the Shadow Flame Dragon? What on earth are you talking about?"
Before he could think clearly, the person had already arrived near the coffin.
Many knights quietly saw off Grand Duke Kunstein in front of the coffin. Although the coffin was simple, the scene was very solemn.
Russell saw his grandfather, Earl Merlin, with his snow-white hair, which shocked him inexplicably.
Then his eyes caught sight of Archduke Kunstein in the coffin.
The wounds from head to tail were hideous and horrible. In addition, his neck, arms, torso, and legs were all cut open and separated by wooden boards. There were also several kinds of gems inlaid around them to prevent him from resurrecting.
He thought of the fact that he had just met Grand Duke Kunstan not long ago and sent him a hundred boxes of Bailu series Yulong cigars.
He even had dinner with Grand Duke Kunstan.
He also thought of the pre-war speech given by Grand Duke Kunstan in front of the headquarters tent to boost morale.
Looking at the torn corpse in the coffin again, Russell suddenly felt a little suffocated and even broke out in a cold sweat again. Even the king of a country could die in a battle, so what about him, just a mere fantasy beast knight...
"I am so foolish to rashly participate in a war!"
At this moment, Russell not only sighed for the death of Grand Duke Kunstan, but also reflected on his past actions.
With his mind in a mess, like all knights, he stood silently in front of the coffin.
I don't know how long it has been.
Russell felt someone tapping his shoulder, turned around and saw that it was Baron Roman, and then followed Baron Roman and quietly left the coffin.
He went straight back to the camp of the Knights of the Valley of the Dark Light.
"Huh." Baron Roman untied the opening of his armor and loosened the armor on his body. "Among the twenty knights, our knights suffered less losses. The knights of Poplar Gobi and Golden Plains were almost crippled."
"This is thanks to the protection of Lord Ross." Russell said.
"But the problem is that your grandfather issued an order to rescue Shadow... rescue the dragon, but Lord Ross did not follow it." Baron Roman sighed, and was unwilling to mention the name of Shadow Flame Dragon, fearing that Shadow Flame Dragon would hear it, "When the reckoning comes... Alas, it doesn't matter, even the Grand Duke died."
Russell frowned: "Did Lord Ross not follow the order to rescue the dragon?"
He suddenly thought of what his uncle Rosen said on the night of Dragon's Birthday, Lord Ross was so scared that he dared not face the snow giant again.
Perhaps, this guess is right.
But he didn't think much about it. He didn't get along with Lord Ross, so he just asked: "I just heard Baron Kunbiff talking to Marquis Arno... Father, the Torrent Dragon wants to take away the shadow... What is the dragon's hope?"
"I don't know." Baron Roman shrugged his shoulders, "That's a dispute between the Dragon Blood Family. It has nothing to do with us. Listen, Russell, keep these things to yourself."
He poured himself a glass of ice wine.
On the snowy plains, you have to drink ice wine like fire to enjoy it: "You are already a fantasy beast knight, and you have enough strength to protect yourself. After this battle, the Grand Duchy will be in a difficult situation. Use all your strength to make achievements."
"I will, father." Russell nodded.
But he still has a lot of questions to ask: "Grand Duke Kunstan died, father, who will succeed the Grand Duke next?"
Not only Russell wants to know the answer, Baron Roman, and all the nobles of the Grand Duchy of Shadow Flame are seeking this answer.
