Chapter 472 Smoke Bomb
Frost Troll did not appear again until March, when the Blazing Scale Tower south of the Netherlight Valley was built, and neither the Frost Troll nor the Snow Giant invaded the territory again.
Only the rioting Snow Demon had some impact on various warm enclaves.
But it was also a carnival. The knights who had not seen the Snow Demon for two consecutive years participated in the hunt crazily, just to accumulate some military merit and get the title of knighthood. Including the knights under Russell's command, they also actively went to fight in the snowfield.
Red Fort.
In Earl Merlin's small independent castle, Russell was smoking and drinking with his grandfather in his grandfather's study.
Lord Merlin smoked a frost cigar, while Russell sipped Pendant wine.
"Russell, you and His Highness Shadow Flame are ready to leave. When King Ares arrives and activates the Blazing Scale Tower, you will follow King Ares to the Kingdom of Blazing Torrents. After activating the four Shadow Flame Scale Towers, Ari King Si will escort you back again.”
The attack on the Torrent Dragon made the dragon dare not fly alone in the snowy field.
In addition to the dragon knight, the torrent dragon and the shadow flame dragon need to fly together to prevent being attacked again.
"Grandpa, I suddenly thought of a question."
"you say."
"I once said in front of the torrent dragon that I don't know dragon language... How can a flying dragon knight who doesn't know dragon language accompany the flying shadow flame dragon?" Russell suddenly thought of a blind spot, which made him It's a bit embarrassing.
At the beginning, Xiao Menglong did not dare to expose himself in front of the giant dragon, so he could not provide him with an interpreter.
He could only pretend that he didn't understand the dragon language in front of the torrent dragon.
"Then do you know dragon language?" Earl Merlin squinted his eyes and looked at his grandson with a smile.
"I do now."
"That's enough." Earl Merlin shook out the ashes of his cigar, "If the Torrent Dragon has any doubts, let him figure it out on his own... You and His Highness Shadow Flame have communicated alone several times. This news may be of great concern to the kingdom. It’s no longer a secret.”
"Well, it seems so." Russell nodded. Every time he came to see the Shadow Flame Dragon, he came to communicate openly and did not deliberately avoid anyone.
The more Earl Merlin thought about it, the more interesting he became. He smiled and said, "If you can understand the dragon language of the Shadow Flame Dragon, but can't understand the dragon language of the Torrent Dragon, what do you think King Ares will think?"
"have no idea."
"You know, but this kid is being naughty and doesn't want to say anything." Earl Merlin laughed, "He will think that your relationship with His Highness Shadow Flame is unusual... This is a good thing, isn't it? The Grand Duchy needs inspiring people. News.”
obviously.
Russell's close relationship with the Shadowflame Dragon will cause King Ares and the Torrent Dragon to misunderstand him and regard him as the knight chosen by the Shadowflame Dragon.
A giant dragon's combat effectiveness will be completely different with or without knights.
"Maybe, Grandpa." Russell smiled.
In fact, the Shadow Flame Dragon is also deliberately creating this kind of atmosphere, making people feel that it is cultivating Russell. When it considers how to deal with the relationship with the Shadow Flame family, it will make a contract with Russell.
But this is just smoke and mirrors.
The Shadow Flame Dragon just wanted to use this to cover up the news about the little Dream Dragon, so that this unborn ally could develop safely. In the future, I will join forces with Little Dream Dragon to regain the hope that the Torrent Dragon took away.
The information gap caused a big misunderstanding.
Naturally, Russell would not expose this misunderstanding. On the contrary, he had to show his ambiguity with the Shadow Flame Dragon at all times.
Neither admit it nor deny it.
So much so that Earl Merlin was somewhat certain that Russell would most likely become the next generation of Shadow Flame Dragon Knight.
"This mission to the Kingdom of Blazing Torrent is not a formal mission. You and His Highness Shadow Flame do not need to go to the Palace of the Sun to pay a visit. After activating the four Shadow Flame Scale Towers, no matter how King Ares tries to persuade him to stay, you and His Highness Shadow Flame will Return as soon as possible."
"I will, Grandpa."
"What I fear most is that the Kingdom uses a honey trap." Earl Merlin seemed to be sighing, but also seemed to be complaining, "Mer, a useless boy, has been fascinated by Anne of the Adelaide family. I can't help but I hope you are also fascinated by someone’s lady.”
"Haha." Russell laughed, "Grandpa, you are worrying too much."
"I hope I'm worrying too much. Go ahead and pack your bags and let me know when you set off with the Shadow Flame Dragon."
"OK."
After leaving the Red Castle, Russell did not go to the Shadow Flame Mountain to say hello. He and the Shadow Flame Dragon already had a tacit understanding, so there was no need to waste any more words.
After returning, Russell first inspected the territory.
Then I went to the Green Capital Snow Forest, where I saw the harpy dragon Hape, and also meditated on that stupid hair at the cold spring in the Green Capital Garden.
"Happy, I have to go on a trip. It may take a week."
"Go ahead, Russell. I'm going to be here to gain some insights. Without personally experiencing the horror of life and death, it's not easy to fully digest and absorb the experiences left by our ancestors."
"Yes, I understand. You can figure it out in peace." Russell waved his hand and left a bag of roasted rat meat.
Subsequently.
Russell went home again and sent the Extreme Ice Sacred Artifact and the big metal stone to the Shadow Flame Volcano: "Your Highness Shadow Flame, I thought about it and I don't want to give the Extreme Ice Sacred Artifact to King Ares yet. I plan to keep it. Fishing Shuangda.”
"What are you sending Shadow Flame here for?" Shadow Flame Dragon didn't open its eyes.
"Store it in the Shadow Flame Volcano for a few days. When we come back, I will take it away. You and I are gone, and the Black Fire Land is only protected by two scale towers. I am worried about preventing Shuangda from taking it away secretly. ”
Shuangda twice avoided the surveillance of the Torrent Scale Tower and smuggled into the Nuan Enclave, which made Russell seriously doubt the role of the Scale Tower.
If he hadn't been very lucky these two times and was bumped into by him riding a little dream dragon, I'm afraid the Jibing Sacred Artifact would have been taken back by Shuangda.
"The Scale Tower is indeed of limited use." Shadow Flame Dragon said, "Put down the Extreme Ice Sacred Artifact, and be careful not to let the seal open... This breath is too disgusting, and Shadow Flame doesn't like it."
"good."
The Extreme Ice Sacred Artifact has been placed.
Not long after, King Ares rode the blazing dragon with billowing smoke and arrived at the Grand Duchy of Shadowflame again.
He didn't move to Shadowflame Volcano, nor did he visit the Red Keep.
King Ares went directly to the four blazing scale towers in the southeast, northwest, and after activating the scale towers, waited for a while in the fire ant swamp.
"Roar!"
With a dragon roar, the shadow flame dragon flashing red light flew quickly from the sky.
Beside the Shadow Flame Dragon, Russell, with the mark of the Lord of Thunder on his head, followed closely on the black oil dragon Rossai. It's a pity that the Dragon Knight is too small. Compared to the huge Shadow Flame Dragon, the Black Oil Dragon is just a small black dot.
Russell on the dragon's back could not even be seen.
"Although I am small, King Ares is not that big either." Russell comforted himself.
Although the dragon knight is not riding on the back of the dragon, but sitting on the throne with raised scales on the dragon's head, it is also invisible from a distance.
and.
The blazing dragon was covered in black smoke, and King Ares was obscured by the black smoke. Even if he was close, it was still difficult to see clearly.
It loses the elegance of the dragon knight.
"Roar!" The blazing dragon responded, and then it carried King Ares into the sky and flew side by side with the shadow flame dragon.
Fly quickly towards the blazing torrent kingdom in the northwest.
The normal flying speed of the giant dragon is not much faster than that of the flying dragon. There is no need for Russell to use the thunder boosting technology, and the black oil dragon Russell can keep up steadily.
After a while.
Russell felt something in his heart and had crossed the national boundary of the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy.
He couldn't help but look back and saw that the fire ant swamp had disappeared, and there was only the boundless snowfield in the whole world.
