Chapter 1,000: The Council of Elders
The ancient bronze dragon entrenched in the center and on the highest mountain said, "It's here, now let's begin!"
Although the seven peaks are about the same, there is still a slight difference in height, obviously low on both sides and high in the middle.
In this way, it is easy to show their status and inferiority.
The identity of the bronze dragon who had just spoken was naturally self-evident, it was the patriarch of the bronze dragon clan, Gregory.
As Gregory's words fell, cyan light rushed up from the peak of the mountain they sat on, and then merged into a circular light shield in the sky above, enveloping the entire council.
Protective magic shield.
It has the effect of isolating the inside and outside, and has a certain defensive effect against long-range physical and magical attacks.
However, this magic cover is used here, and the defensive function is secondary, and the main function is to isolate the sound and play a role in secrecy.
The bronze dragons gathered in the middle, even if they were noisy, they couldn't hear the slightest movement outside.
After all, dragons are naturally loud and loud, especially when they quarrel, it is even more difficult to control their voices and tempers.
When talking about it, it is not impossible to spew out a few breaths of dragon breath to cheer up.
caused accidental injuries, but they didn't take it seriously.
The point is that what they discuss on the front foot, and the back foot is well known, then it is not beautiful.
"Bring those three little ones up, and we'll ask for the situation on the islands ourselves. Patriarch Gregory spoke again.
"I've seen the patriarch, I've seen the three great elders, I've seen the three elders. Kaul and the other three bronze dragons soon came in, their voices trembling with a tremor that they didn't even notice.
Even Kaul, who has a relatively wide range of knowledge, has not gone through this kind of formation, and the coercion is too strong.
These strong men, on weekdays, each guard one side, thousands of kilometers away from each other, in the past, they were extremely lucky to be able to see one, let alone see all of them now.
Kaul means that once he comes to Bronze Dragon City, he can alarm a great elder to return and summon him, which is already high enough.
Unexpectedly, all the staff arrived, and a special meeting of elders was held.
This council of elders is certainly not for itself, but for the force that brings news for itself.
This is self-aware, and Kaul still has it.
It's just that that force, there really is such a powerful force, and it deserves so much attention from the patriarchs and elders.
"We need to know more about the situation on the other side of the islands, and we need to read your memories later, the process may be a bit painful, do you have any opinions?" Gregory Patriarch's gaze fell on Kaul.
"It's our pleasure. Kaul and the others replied in unison.
In such an occasion, even if there is an opinion, there is no courage to say it.
"Very good!" Gregory Patriarch had a look of satisfaction in his eyes, and with a finger of the dragon's claws, the three adult bronze dragons felt a tingling in their heads, and their memories flowed back like a tidal wave, going back to the moment before they launched an attack on the fleet of the Eternal Night Army, before it was replayed in the form of a curtain, and lasted until Sean finished talking with them.
"The undisciplined attack has completely abandoned the cloud and mist technique that our Bronze Dragon Clan is best at, and tried in vain to launch an attack from the bottom of the sea like a sea beast, and what are we waiting to do without waiting to be beaten? The best way to deal with this kind of long-range artillery fire is to use a large area of clouds and mist! The descendants of the archipelago are too deficient in combat, so they should send a few excellent warriors over to train them, and after they go to the battlefield, they should learn everything from scratch. β
"Great Elder Hobert's words are a bit extreme, those juniors who have never left the archipelago are not rich in combat experience, but Kaul is an excellent warrior in our clan, he has experienced several battles, and his combat experience can be called rich, the reason why they don't use cloud and mist techniques is only because of the geographical environment, the element concentration on the island side is far lower than that of the Golden Continent, and they have already gone out of the range of the archipelago at that time, close to the Ashane continent of the magical desert, the effect of cloud and mist magic is only afraid that it will be greatly reduced, if it is just to shroud themselves, they will still become live targets from the artillery fire shown by the other party, and defeat is still inevitableγ β
"Victoria, you don't have to argue for them, even if there are environmental factors in it, but it is a fact that they are useless in this battle, and they have a heart of contempt for the enemy from the beginning, so it is no wonder that they ended up with a lost dog. β
"Although the mouth of the Great Elder Hobert is a little poisonous, it is also out of good intentions, it is a fact that the young dragons on the islands lack well-trained, and the war on our side has shown a significant expansion in recent years, and it is possible to transfer the younger generation behind at any time to replenish their strength and let them learn some combat experience in advance, which is a good thing for them, not a bad thing. β
"This issue, let's postpone it, there is no more business for you here, you go down and rest. Gregory Patriarch said to the three adult bronze dragons who were a little sluggish, "You have done a good job, and the clan will give you corresponding rewards afterwards." β
"Thank you, Patriarch, and we'll retire first. Kaul and the others said in unison.
They were no longer in the mood to consider the question of whether to reward or not, and they felt that if they stayed here, they would not be crushed to death by the living dragon power, but would also be killed by the ridicule and shame of Grand Elder Hobert.
Their previous battle with the Eternal Night Captain was criticized for being useless.
Looking back now, they did make a series of mistakes at that time, such as underestimating the enemy's rash advance, not being well organized, and not planning well.
"Brother Kaul, how could there be such a big commotion, I thought it would be great if this matter could alarm a great elder!"
"You ask me, who do I ask? Is that the leader of the invaders really such a big deal?"
"Fortunately, fortunately, we followed the advice of Brother Kaul and came to Dragon City, otherwise the honor of missing meeting several adults in person is small, and the big thing in the clan is great. β
The three adult bronze dragons were in mixed feelings such as palpitations, excitement, and excitement, mixed with a hint of happiness, glad that they did not come by their own temperament, otherwise they would have missed a lot of things that they would regret for the rest of their lives.
"They just came out of the Dragon Valley, could it be that they were summoned by the patriarchs and elders?"
"What are the patriarchs and elders doing when they summon a few of them who are not fully physical?"
"I've seen them, they seem to have flown over from the breeding area just a few days ago, and I heard that they had brought news of the breeding area, and they were anxious to see the elders, did you say that this meeting of elders had anything to do with them?"
"It's possible, listening to those dragons who came back from the breeding area, the situation in the breeding area is a bit chaotic, there is a group of invading pirates who are very rampant, and they don't take our bronze dragon clan in their eyes at all, the breeding area is our foundation after all, and it is not surprising to alarm the clan elders and elders. β
"In this case, it makes sense, if it is really the news that these fellows have brought back, and the meeting has been caused, they will be lucky, Gregory Patriarch, but he is known for his rewards and punishments. β
The whispers and gazes along the way made the three adult bronze dragons flutter, and they all forgot the sting of the soul caused by reading the memory, and even forgot how to return to the temporary residence.
The three young bronze dragons with letters left, and the Council of Elders of the Bronze Dragons officially began.
Gregory Patriarch's gaze turned to an ancient dragon on the right, "Grand Elder Annonres, you have personally met the fleet of emissaries and met with their fleet, is that fleet the same as this one?"
"Whether it's a battleship or a language flag, they can be on the right number, they must be one. Grand Elder Anunles replied in the affirmative.
Kaul and their arrival in Bronze Dragon City to meet the elders of the clan was just an inducement.
Another reason why the Bronze Dragon Elders really convened a meeting of elders was that the emissary fleet sent by Sean to find the Golden Continent sailed into the coastal waters of the Golden Continent a month ago.
Their sudden appearance among the major forces in the Golden Continent caused an uproar.
Those half-finished magic warships led by the Eternal Night Army are naturally not worth mentioning in the Golden Continent, where magic is widely used, and the elves are even better in this regard.
But in terms of artillery technology, it was unique, throwing off the dwarves for several streets.
Although the dwarves also had artillery, they were still in the initial stage of arquebuses and breech guns.
The gnomes have mechanical equipment, but they are dominated by steam.
Although the magic of the elves flourished, it was mainly based on plant magic.
The situation of the Eternal Night Army Leader fusing mechanical manufacturing, magic runes, and metal together, and even posing a great threat to the dragons, is unprecedented, and naturally needs to be taken very seriously.
When they heard that they were from the Ashane Continent, the Bronze Dragon Clan was even more concerned, after all, their breeding area was closer to that side.
"It seems that we are all swayed by inertial thinking, and we have always thought that the Ashan Continent is a magical desert, a wild land, and there is not much development prospect at all, so even if we know that the breeding area is over there, in recent years, there have been frequent intruders, and even some children have been injured because of this, I still simply think that it was caused by their carelessness, and I didn't expect that the other party has developed to this extent, I have a lot of responsibility for this matter, and I want to review and apologize here. "Patriarch Gregory analyzes the ins and outs of the matter.
"This matter is not the responsibility of the patriarch alone, all of us here are responsible, not only the patriarch did not pay attention to this matter, but we also did not pay attention to it, fortunately they have a sane lord, otherwise, our breeding area has suffered a heavy blow, and we can wake up. Grand Elder Victoria also took the initiative to ask.
"What do you think of the proposal of the Lord of the Eternal Night, is the other party really seeking peace and development, or is it setting a trap to kill us in order to occupy the East African archipelago?"
"The former is more likely, he has been exposed to the power of the law, he knows what the threat to our world is, if he starts a war with us, he is only weakening the power of his own world, and when the time comes, only they will face the invasion of another world, as long as they are smart, they should not do such stupid things. β
"As for what he and Kaul said, there have been plane rifts and plane invaders on their continent, is this true or false?"
"I think it's eighty percent true, you should have felt the plane fluctuation three months ago, and since then, the fallen elves have become active again, and we have been speculating that new rifts have appeared, bringing the two planes closer together.
However, we searched the entire continent, and even the surrounding seas, and found no new traces of the rift, although it was once speculated that this rift was probably not in our continent, but the objects of suspicion were concentrated in the territory of the green dragon and the black dragon, but ignored the continent of Ashan.
The other party is reasonable, and the causal relationship makes perfect sense.
And there is no need for him to tell a lie that is so easy to debunk, we will find out when the time comes. β
"Last question, do you think the theft of the dragon egg is a coincidence, or is it another way for the other party to show off their strength?"
"It's all possible!, but I think the dragon eggs have been brought back safely, as long as you don't make up your mind to start an all-out war with them, there is no need to continue to investigate, just treat it as a pure coincidence!" Victoria Yass was the first to say.
"What about the other elders?" Gregory was asking for the opinions of many people, but his gaze involuntarily turned to Archelder Hobert.
Because his temper has always been the hardest of them all, and he is the most likely of them all.
"See what I'm doing?" Hobert said in a sullen voice, "Even if I am belligerent, I will not open a second battlefield for my people in this situation, since they have released a signal of peace, we might as well contact them to see their specific plans, and then talk about whether it is war or not, after all, we know too little about this force, and making any decision now, although it is not necessarily wrong, is definitely reckless." β
"Then who do you think is the most appropriate person to send to deal with this matter?" Patriarch Gregory asked a new question.
"I'd like to go to this magical desert to see it for myself, but the situation on my side is very tight, and the Fallen Elves may attack at any time, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to leave for a long time. Grand Elder Victoria said apologetically and regretfully.
"There has been no war on my side for a while, but I think that the messenger fleet is another line, and I want to open a gap nearby and learn from them about the situation on their side. "Grand Elder Anunel also has his own business.
"It seems that there is only one between you and me, and it just so happens that the defense zone between the two of us is relatively close, so we can take care of it. Patriarch Gregory's gaze turned to Archelder Hobert again.
