Chapter 625: Becoming a Tree

Chapter 625: Becoming a Tree

"On the morning of April 17th, the volcanic oasis of the Grand Duchy of Junling in the Ancient Dragon's Back Continent was captured, and the giant dragon of Junling died..."

During the Lei Sheng meeting, another bad news came.

The Grand Duchy of the Mountains had not yet joined the Thunder Conference, so when it was destroyed by the Frost Troll Legion, no one knew about it. It was not until messengers rushed to the surrounding countries that they learned that another human country had failed to hold on three days ago.

"My deepest condolences!"

"My deepest condolences!"

"My deepest condolences!"

Countries across the country sent condolences one after another, but they didn't feel much emotion anymore. Six grand duchies were destroyed one after another, so they had long been accustomed to it. And the current situation is destined to destroy more human countries.

"Hurry up industrialization."

"I have studied "The Path of the Human Dragon" and I have a lot of feelings. I hope that the talented knights from all over the world can calm down and practice hard, and strive to have a few more talented fantasy dragon knights like Archduke Russell to fight for the living space of mankind."

"The method of sacrificing the three-headed dragon really doesn't work, and our country's experiment also failed."

"It's a pity that the giant dragon can't leave the volcano. Otherwise, how could we humans huddle together and be defeated by the frost and snow trolls one by one!"

"This is nonsense. If humans stick together, the Frost and Snow Trolls will also stick together. Although the three snow giants will tear apart the snowfield when they gather together, the Frost and Snow Trolls can destroy us humans even without the snow giants."

"But if you do that, the frost and snow trolls will also suffer heavy losses. We humans become more courageous with every setback, and with a steady stream of descendants, we can always defeat these alien invaders!"

"Okay, let's stop arguing. It's only right to train a few more talented knights."

"Yes, give Leisheng's resources to the industrial conference. If there is nothing important, we won't waste Leisheng's resources."

“Industrialization is important!”

"Hurry up and study "The Road of Humans and Dragons", and share the results with you as soon as possible."

After the short thunder meeting, Russell left the Red Fort Thunder Station and came to the side hall where he worked daily.

On the radio, music is playing.

The Thunder Broadcasting Station jointly established by Princess Anxia and Marquis Arnaud has spread broadcasts to noble families of all sizes. Many nobles even installed large speakers in their manors so that the broadcasts can accompany the serfs in their work.

"We need to work hard for industrialization, and we need to work hard for Renaissance." Russell picked up the tea cup and drank this year's new tea, feeling comfortable.

I want to make the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy prosperous and strong.

So industrialization is an inevitable choice to enhance national power, but at the same time, he also feels that the Renaissance is equally important, firstly to liberate the mind, and secondly to unite the people. National strength and popular support are all indicators of strengthening the Shadow Flame Dragon.

"Your Highness, the Minister of Industry wishes to see you."

"Please come in."

Soon, the eldest brother Roland walked into the side hall with joy: "Your Highness, the Northern Underglacial Railway has been successfully opened! The trial train successfully crossed the underglacial railway and arrived at the Arctic Station at the northernmost point of the country."

"Very good!" Russell said excitedly.

“Next, the Ministry of Industry will make every effort to promote the ‘refugee line’ from the Arctic station to the north, striving to realize a 500-kilometer under-ice railway within one year, and a 3,000-kilometer refugee line within three years, shortening the difficulty of migration!”

"Okay, at this stage, the Kingdom of Blazing Torrents will provide the required nickel silver ore, but next year, the Kingdom of Blazing Torrents will also lay its own under-ice railway, and we will have to look for nickel silver ores from the Silver Mountain Province."

"Your Highness, please rest assured. I am communicating with Luo Ze at all times. As long as the nickel silver mine grows, we will open the mine as soon as possible!"

Luo Ze is the nickel silver dragon contracted by Roland.

After spending a morning, Russell finished all the official duties, left the Red Castle in the afternoon, and returned to the Cigar Palace.

The conversation with the will of the world in his dream last night had already affected his mind too much, and now he just wanted to wait for Xiao Menglong's volcanic eruption.

"Morris."

"Master, I'm here."

"There's nothing important, don't let anyone disturb me."

"Yes, sir." Butler Morris accepted the order, bowed and exited the room, and closed the door tightly.

Standing at the door, Butler Morris waited for a while. Sometimes he couldn't tell whether his master was the Grand Duke of the Red Castle. Although I rarely see the master during the day, he comes back to the Cigar Palace to sleep every night.

It feels as if the master has never left this castle.

He originally thought that the Cigar Palace would be deserted when the master went to the Red Castle, but the fact was exactly the opposite, the Cigar Palace was still lively.

Mrs. Ingrid and Mrs. Robby often come here. Lord Charles, who used to like to come here for dinner, is hard to see anymore, but Lord Eric, who serves as the governor of the Blackfire Land Province, still comes frequently.

Everything is not much different from usual.

"This feels so good." Butler Morris turned around and slowly left Russell's room, "I just don't know how Leona is doing in the Red Castle... Maybe in a few years, she will become The butler of the Red Castle, right?"

As night fell, Russell lay on the bed early and fell asleep.

He wanted to know if he could continue to dream about the will of the world tonight, about the sky beyond the sky, and about the little dream dragon that was breaking out of its shell and sprouting.

"My ice cream turns out to be the seeds of the Tree of the Universe...it's so amazing!"

In a daze, he fell asleep, and his consciousness seemed to be separated from his body, floating and flying towards the sky, straight to the sky.

A seed was struggling to break out of its shell in the outer sky, rippling out circles of bright ripples, spreading around the planet of Longmian Continent. The shell was covered with cracks, and even the amber light shining through it could be seen.

Crack.

Russell clearly heard the sound of the shell breaking, and he stared at the seed of the cosmic tree, looking forward to the birth of Xiao Menglong.

"What kind of volcanic eruption will it be?"

"Growing up like a tree, or erupting like a real volcano?"

"If there is a tree and a volcano in this outer sky, where is the volcanic oasis that belongs to me and Xue Gao?"

He had many questions in his mind, and then he slowly turned his head and looked at Longxing. On Longxing, which was covered by clouds, the snow-covered Longmian Continent could be vaguely seen, with spots on it, which was the human country.

He looked at the distant starry sky again, and a broken planet was particularly eye-catching.

It maintained a basic circle, but the cracks were bottomless and could fall apart at any time. It flew towards Dragon Star at a high speed, but Russell watched it for a long time, and its position seemed to have never moved, mysterious and unpredictable.

"Strange!"

Russell retracted his gaze.

Click, there was another crisp sound, and the seeds of the cosmic tree were completely shattered, and then, the endless eruption of amber light engulfed Russell's vision.

"Is the volcano erupting?"

Russell looked at the bright light around him, and his consciousness was trance and floated to the farther outer space with the eruption of light.

Then.

He saw an unforgettable scene in his life.

It was an amber volcano erupting, but the magma it erupted was particularly different, like countless amber starlights spewing out from the crater, and then these starlights condensed in the starry sky, condensing into an amber tree.

The starlight on the tree that had not merged in time floated and dripped towards Dragon Star, fell on the atmosphere, and hit a circle of bright ripples.

Then the starlight grew into a small sapling.

Rumble!

The silent volcanic eruption shook Russell's heart. The amber starlight became more and more, and the tree it formed became clearer and clearer.

"Could it be... that the ice cream really turned into a tree?" Russell thought dizzily.
