Chapter 299
The only...Dragon rider?
The silent Loren pondered the meaning behind this sentence.
Seeing the confusion of the black hair wizard, Brandon’s mouth showed a somewhat "so" smile: "I’m afraid you don’t know much about the history of the dragon Wang Family?"
"There is also the once weak, infantry and city wall and centaur cavalry, Byrne Knight, Lothar's divine archer, these...all directions The kingdom of Gusackland, which is fighting fiercely with the powerful enemy, how is it so short? In just five or six hundred years, has become the nation of choice for the world?"
"I know a little bit, Wimpal Academy does not have many history books." Loren eyebrows raised: "My instructor also thinks History is of little use to the wizard."
"so that's how it is, it’s no wonder..."
His Royal Highness with a smile on his mouth, Unexplainedly, he took a deep look at Loren, and walked to the center of the Silver Hall and pointed to the direction due to the north: "Today's Sacklanders, especially those who were born in the Prince of Sackland or Imperial Capital Golovin, the so-called The "Pureblood" Sacland people all like to call themselves the "Citizens of the Dragon King" and are deeply proud of it!"
"But many of them have forgotten that hundreds of years ago It's still a shameful title."
"Shame?" the black hair wizard asked with interest.
"Yes, it was less than six hundred years ago, but the scholars of the empire prefer to call it the "last era" thousands of years ago. Now there are only the remnant giant dragon kingdoms in the northern part of the empire-they are the descendants of the strong Northen and the overseas Yasul elves. This once powerful kingdom also has a tradition of hunting giant dragons!"
"If you don’t bathe in dragon blood, you can’t be the king—this is an old saying passed down by them, can you imagine? No...it should be said that in this world there really is such a nation, such a strong warrior, who can use one person A tall sword and a three-meter long, thick-armed javelin hunting giant dragons?"
"And the weak, humble and worthless kingdom of Sackland, in the era of the roar of giant dragons It’s just a servant who provides them with infantry, food and weapons."
Suddenly there was a bit of sarcasm in the smile of His Royal Highness: "Citizens of the Dragon King? Hehehehe, hey..."
"But they are dead, and there is not even one survivor left." Loren spoke softly, and took Brandon's words: "In this world, there are no remnants of the giant dragon kingdom."
"Yes, because the demons are here."
Brandon was nodded, and continued with interest: "The proud giant dragon kingdom refused when facing the enemy. All foreign aid, alone against the sudden Evil God, and the army of monsters transformed and mutated by them."
"The dragon flame of the giant dragon burned the body of Evil God, the sword and The javelin tore the monster into pieces;
And Evil God will never stop hunting, the dead warrior stand up and fight with their companions;
The proud warriors won the battle.
Victory, but fear is permeating the north day by day;
Finally, the dragon folds its wings and the dragon king is dead, they know that the more fear, the stronger the enemy;
So, proud Kingdom of giant dragons, died under their pride!"
Listening to this shit doesn’t make sense, but it has become a very heavy "poetry" in the melodious voice of His Royal Highness, black hair The wizard's expression was rather serious.
In ancient times when words were not yet formed, poetry was history, and history was poetry-and the "truth" I was pursuing was hidden in these seemingly absurd "history".
Brandon dragged a long tone, still with a bright smile on the corners of his mouth: "Every time I hear this long poem, I cannot help being very'malicious' besides feelings. I wonder if the tragic war that year was really because they were too proud, or...
The rest of the kingdoms, including Sackland, were deliberately... watching them being destroyed. What?"
Loren's expression was slightly stagnant, and he didn't expect Brandon to be so...evaluating his ancestors.
“What’s so strange about this? Without the destruction of the giant dragon kingdom, the Kingdom of Sackland will always be impossible and truly independent, and will unite the surrounding ancient kingdoms with the threat of the north to achieve a once-only The empire that appears in fantasy, dominates the central empire."
Brandon still smiled brilliantly, with a bit of appreciation in his eyes: "It would be better to say that my despicable ancestors made a It was a very correct decision and won the throne for the Desalion family."
"And the giant dragon." Loren shrugged, "Am I right?"
"Yes, there are also giant dragons-although there are countless sacrifices in that war, after being severely weakened by the giant dragon kingdom, the Evil Gods who came and their monster army were finally blocked to the north of Duanjie Mountain."
Brandon nodded, smiling softly: "The rest is the'truth' that most people can't see-the last giant dragon Queen Brunhild, a seven-year-old girl , Was sent to the Kingdom of Sackland before the last dragon king died in the battle, and married my ancestor who was so lucky, and the "dowry" together with twelve remaining giant dragons, and communication with the giant dragon "The secret of the world."
"From that day on, the Desalion family has become the'Dragon Wang Family'."
"According to the Desalion family and the giant dragon Between the "vow", each generation of Dessa Leon can go to Jufeng Mountain once, where he can meet the giant dragon at least once, if he can be recognized after communication, this giant dragon will do it for him Serve until the day this person dies."
"Forever?" Loren eyebrows raised.
"Don’t look at these terrifying monsters from a human point of view. The lifespan of giant dragons is long and unimaginable. The longest lifespan so far has lived for nearly five hundred years!"
Brandon chuckled and shook his head: "According to what I understand, the concept of time between giant dragons and humans is completely different-in the case of overwhelming majority, it is just a blink of an eye to them all day long!"
“In short, every generation of Dessa Leon will go to Jufeng Mountain once, and the situation is slightly different-sometimes six people may be recognized by six giant dragons at the same time, sometimes only eldest son Success with the last son of the same luck; in any case, the crown prince of each generation almost never fails."
"But this time..." Brandon smiled playfully. Come out: "I am the only one."
"oh?"
Loren also slightly raised the corner of his mouth: "Can you tell me what happened?"
The silver room is empty and there are only two people, but the atmosphere has become a lot more subtle inexplicably.
"At the beginning, it was the same as the tradition of each generation-my dear Imperial Brother Connaught was sent to the dragon lair of Jufeng Mountain, and I was thrown at the foot of the mountain by the guards. When climbing the mountain, I was almost swallowed by Milassis, my giant dragon, as a rabbit!"
"But ah... I don’t know why, I ended up as the'dragon rider' It's me, not my dear Imperial Brother."
Brandon's face gradually lost his smile, and the corners of his mouth became colder and colder: "It was originally just a test, until the end But it has become something terrifying that can evoke other people’s ambitions."
"They said...recognized by the giant dragon is the proof of Desalion’s bloodline; they said...something A humiliating son of the emperor who has never been obedient, he must have used some unknown means to make his big brother, his future emperor, his majesty, wanting to be loved by the Imperial Father in this way..."
"I said...all shit!"
Loren slightly smiled.
It is indeed the style of the prince.
"I don't care what others think of me, and I don't plan to live for others... It's too tired and too boring. But do you know which one is the most chilling and scares me the most?"
"It's my big brother, your Royal Highness, the future emperor of the empire. I don't know why...he started to think so too."
The two fell silent at the same time.
"...Can I think so?" Loren lowered his voice, and stared at Brandon: "You look like this, in fact, to avoid suspicion?"
"Well...for more than ten years, I have been pretending to be crazy, wandering around, never making a decent noble friend, and being watched all the time." Brandon shrugged:
"What else is it for?" "
Loren was expressionless, he was about to guess the answer.
But he still wanted to hear the prince speak out.
"And now...I'm starting to get bored." Brandon, who was slightly smiled, also stared at Loren: "And I think they should be getting bored too."
"So, let's meet the Imperial Father's mission together!"
