Black Dragon Code

When the black dragon entered the unknown dark region, on the other side of the north, the young nobleman Roy Brando also returned to Kaji, the border of the Principality of the Rhine, and arrived at Earl Brando's mansion.

The Brando family suffered heavy losses during this trip to the wild. As the son of the earl and the commander in front of the battle, he should bear the main responsibility for this fiasco.

So after witnessing the escape of the black dragon teleportation, Roy only had time to explain some necessary matters, and then set off non-stop to rush back to Kaji. to the Rhineland.

The count is waiting for you in the study, said the butler.

After handing over the stained and dusty light knight armor to the maid, Roy put on a velvet aristocratic suit and walked quickly to the depths of the mansion.

He stood still outside the earl's study, coughed, organized his words, and then lightly knocked on the nanmu door: My lord.

After getting permission, Roy walked in.

Earl Brando's appearance is ordinary and ordinary. Like other Rhine nobles, there is nothing outstanding, but there is a deep gloom in his eyes, which adds a bit of coldness to the temperament of the Kaji lord.

You look tired.

The count glanced at him, then lowered his head to look at the book he was reading earlier, with a low and reassuring voice: It seems that the taste of failure is not good.

You know all about it.

Roy nodded and squirmed his lips: That dragon is special, it doesn't conform to our previous inherent perception of black dragons, and during the course of the war, it continued to grow stronger, until later, it didn't even fear the poisonous mother Sylvie Ya's magic.

So what?

The count raised his head from the table, with a thin gleam of light in his eyes, and said in a low voice: There are too many strange things in this world, unknown things from prehistoric eras, those absurd and weird dreams, those indescribable things. Is the existence of it rare within your cognition?

With that said, the Earl stood up, poured a cup of hot tea for his child, and put it in front of Roy: Experience can only be used as a reference. The truth that people say is often different from the truth.

Failure is failure and cannot be argued against.

I know.

Roy looked at the steaming, rippling and swirling cup of tea, and whispered.

The count sat down on the iron chair again: How about the loss?

Grandmage Anthony was killed in battle. There are 123 remaining in the main battle force, including 11 knights. All ten armor-piercing bed crossbows were destroyed, and the rest of the ordnance was lost...uncountable.

The earl looked at him with a smirk, and added: There are countless resources that are wasted.

Roy didn't make another sound.

How about this……

Earl Brando pondered for a while: You first hand over the business at hand to Naina, go to other places, and bring back two thousand slaves. Be careful, don't be noticed, and don't cause trouble again.

The dragon you mentioned may return for revenge at any time. Our strength needs to be replenished and we must prepare in advance. Earl Brando waved his hand, indicating that Roy could leave, and at the same time he stood up slowly.

Father, you...

Roy was a little uneasy. The body that didn't even move when the black dragon rushed to his face was trembling slightly: Do you want to pray for its existence again?

That's not something you should ask.

The count turned around gloomyly, his eyes were covered with a strange gray mist, and his voice became overlapping, which was extremely strange: Everyone should have enough awe for the incalculable great existence.

In the solitary apartment on the Rhine, during the long years of waiting, even death will die... The count didn't look at him again, but lowered his head, muttering in a low voice in the study.

Incomprehensible words, grotesque tones,

The young nobleman felt cold all over his body, and he couldn't help shivering after hearing only one sentence.

He never knew what his father had come into contact with, and that thing never gave them a response, but just by chanting its name, he could gain unfathomable power and accomplish things that even gods could not do.

Such as contracts.

The young nobleman didn't dare to watch or listen anymore, for fear that he would go crazy in the next second, he ignored the court etiquette, resolutely moved, and fled the earl's study in embarrassment.

After running all the way to the garden and being baptized by the sun, Roy felt a little relieved. When he touched his back, it was already covered with a layer of cold sweat.

...

Unexpectedly, it will rain in the underground world.

This rain has been falling for many days in a row, covering the dark area, the lingering rain, from a distance, seems to have cast a layer of tulle on this gray-toned world.

Moreover, the rain is actually acidic.

Although the black dragon is very happy about the strong acid rain, his blood is naturally close to this corrosive rain and smell. When he comes here, he feels like he is at home, the air is moist and the smell is pleasant.

But this can't calm the doubts in his heart——

Under such harsh conditions, the nearby plants and ferns are still thriving, making the black dragon suspicious of the environment in the Underdark region, suspecting that the native products of this place are highly toxic.

This is a black dragon who likes to ponder, so he started his own human experiment again. After continuous trials, he found that most plants are indeed poisonous, but the effect is not outstanding, and cannot affect the strong orcs. Not to mention any damage to dragons.

There is only one kind of fern that can cause animal frenzy, and it is still satisfactory.

Write it down first, it may come in handy in the future. Black Dragon thought.

In the twinkling of an eye, Caesar had been staying in the Underdark with his family members for a month. During this time, he did not immediately start his plan to collect them. Instead, he cautiously stretched out his tentacles and silently looked at this strange man. world.

After a month of familiarization, judging from the current situation, this underground world is vast, with many tribes and monsters, enough for the black dragon to build a powerful revenge army.

However, the north and south of the Underdark Region present two completely different ecologies.

In the area where the black dragon is currently located, the monster clans are like an imaginary mess of scattered sand, fighting each other and fighting each other. In the south relatively far from him, Hogg found that there are a large number of undead running rampant, and the people who live in it Tribes also have their own scope of activities and rarely interfere.

Even Hogg's Gnolls discovered during their investigation that the clans there even had traces of common hunting.

This is very unusual. Under normal circumstances, the indigenous races in the Underdark are difficult to get along with each other, and endless battles are the norm.

However, in the south, the clans there have even cooperated, and the relationship between them is not as tense as in the normal situation.

There are only two possibilities. One is that a powerful local lord was born in the Underdark Region, and he is in the south to integrate and collect the tribes there. The other is that other five-color dragons will come first and enter the underground world before the black dragon.

Caesar is more willing to believe the first speculation.

But no matter what, he has to start his own integration plan. After a month of exploration and collection, he already has enough understanding of the situation in the Underdark. So far, Caesar has not found a creature stronger than himself—— At least in the unoccupied north, no.

It's time to get started.

In 1627, the third era of Elradia, the black dragon showed its minions.
