The sudden departure of Saratha, the daughter of the dragon, was somewhat surprising, but it seemed to make sense.

Think about it, just by killing one or two lives, it is so "simple" that your own strength can be without bottlenecks, without stagnation, and instantly improve by leaps and bounds...... What a wonderful thing that is.

Zuo De asked himself, if he could be allowed to cross the sixth-order barrier and go straight to the seventh-order, let alone one or two sons and daughters, what would it matter if he let his relatives die. And if he was able to rush to the eighth order, he was even willing to sacrifice everything he had, even if it was for his soul.

Saratha's sudden escape was the best choice for granted, and the next move of Saphiras, the son of the dragon, seemed to further confirm everyone's speculation.

"Wait, Sarasa, listen to me!" Saphirath also took the form of a wyvern, and chased after his sister. At the last moment before entering the passage, his eyes couldn't help but glance at Goron's side. When he found that Goron didn't care about him at all, and his attention was all on the jade dragon Ysera, there was a hint of helplessness in his eyes, and then his gaze collided with the eyes of the eldest lady Armenis full of resentment and contempt.

"You'll wait for me!"

The eyes of the two of them revealed the same unforgettable hatred.

With the help of the crowd, Goron finally came to the side of the emerald dragon Ysera, and the sword saint Alex wielded the blade of fighting energy, and in three strokes, he severed the chains that bound the dragon's body. Ysera's massive dragon body slammed to the ground.

The dragon was already covered in bruises, and the most glaring wound on his body was undoubtedly the location of the reverse scale under his neck, and Michelle was trying to plug the bubbling wound with both hands, but it was useless.

Goron struggled to his feet, took out the long-unused magic cannon two-headed snake from his tattoo, and pressed the healing wave magic bullet into the chamber of the gun. Although he can't perform shamanic magic in his current state, he still has the strength to pull the trigger.

After several rounds in a row, the tender flesh under the scales finally stopped oozing blood outside, and of course, it was also possible that the blood in Ysera's body had dried up......

The people on Golon's side were scrambling to rescue the dying Holy Dragon, but General Zuode's side fell into an eerie silence.

Of course, the general wants to wipe out the blood-stained bastard and his unfilial daughter, peel off the skin and bones, and let out the evil anger in his heart. However, Prince Dior and his royal guards stood not far away. A strange expression was looking at him.

The meaning of this royal spokesperson, how could he not guess with Zuode's cunning and cunning. He just wanted to save the last layer of face for himself and the royal family, so as not to tear his face on the spot.

Ostensibly, after the disappearance of Retusus, Zod was already the last pillar of the Imperial army, the last sword that the Dread Emperor Durontar could rely on. The Emperor needed this sword to deter those who had bad intentions against the Empire.

However, only the real core people know that General Zuode is simply the patriarch of the "Skull and Bones Society", the oldest aristocratic association in the empire. The contradictions between the emperor and the generals, or the "imperial power" and the "Skull and Bones Society", are even above the contradictions between countries.

For example, in this large-scale war, even if the empire loses, Durotar will be able to resolve the crisis through political means such as land reparations and recognition of the other party's territorial claims. Even if the situation develops to the worst and the country is ruined, the emperor can still escape, even if he is caught by someone, there is hope that he will not be killed, after all, his identity still has a certain use value. If you're lucky, you'll be raised for a lifetime with good food and drink.

However, if Durotar is defeated at the hands of the Skull and Bones Society, there will be no second possibility except for one death, and he will die a terrible death, and his immediate family will be buried with him.

Vice versa.

As the oldest and most potential secret society in the empire, the Skull and Bones Society, which represents the interests of the most ancient nobles dating back to the founding of the country, will never allow a "terror emperor" who is completely out of his control, ignorant of the rules, and who kills and tyrannically regards himself as his enemy.

In fact, the open and secret struggle between the Emperor and the Skull and Bones Society has been going on for many years, and all kinds of assassination, kidnapping and other shady methods are not mentioned for the time being, and both sides have suffered heavy losses in the political struggle alone. And Count Amanda, who has always been active in Montenegrin officialdom as a sensitive person, his public execution is the most severe blow suffered by the royal faction recently.

However, the emperor's new marriage is imminent, and in this sensitive period, despite the heavy military pressure of all countries, those celebration missions are still staying in the imperial capital of Montenegro, while observing, while calculating how much the empire still has to come. This will directly affect the next course of action of the huge legions behind them, and affect the size of their king's ambitions.

In other words, if there were any major changes in the imperial capital of Montenegro during this time, such as the last iron wall of the empire, and the bad news such as the sudden treason of General Zuode, then the empire would really be over.

This is also why Prince Dior still disguised himself as a bystander after realizing that Zuode had already killed him, as long as Zuode did not do something desperately, he was not in a hurry to tear off this last layer of face.

And similar concerns, General Zuode also has.

He didn't want to completely turn his face with the royal family so early, otherwise he wouldn't have invited Prince Dior to come to the Snow Lion Castle for a banquet on behalf of the royal family.

The preparation of the Skull and Bones Society is not yet in place, and the "Emperor of Fear" Durontar is not a fuel-efficient lamp. And now the "Dragon Slaying Feast" has become a joke, and the blow to him and the Skull and Bones Society is not small, and now he has a complete falling out with the royal family, and Zuode himself can't bear such a bad result. At worst, he'd be cut off like a lizard's tail by the old immortals of the Skull and Bones Society, smashing all the black cauldrons on himself and becoming the tyrant's punching bag...... Just like the previous members of the Skull and Bones Society.

The dragon slaying feast held by the general with full confidence and fanfare this time was undoubtedly completely messed up. The Holy Blood of the Reverse Scale was taken away, the banquet hall was smashed, the guests suffered heavy casualties, the Son of Talent was reduced by nearly half, and his own daughter betrayed him...... In the glorious life of General Zuode, there is no such shameful thing.

To make a "dragon slaying feast" that could have been recorded in history and written into the epic for 10,000 years to be done like this, it is naturally impossible to say that Zuo De is not angry. In addition to anger, there is also a little regret, but more, there is still helplessness......

The reason why he would adopt such a provocative and playful way, openly slaughtering the Jade Dragon and seizing the Reverse Scale Holy Blood, was certainly not out of the nobles' showmanship...... At least that's not the main reason.

The chain of interests hidden behind this dragon-slaying feast, as well as the killing game laid in it...... With him, the general of the empire, he is just a chess piece in this, and he is not the most important one among them. It was originally a feast of death for the dragoon Rethuses, and its preparations date back decades, when the previous emperor was still in power. It was only later that as the situation continued to change, this feast of death changed again and again, and finally when all the conditions were in place, it was discovered that the main owner of the banquet, Rethuss, had "disappeared", and according to reliable information, he could never return......

As a result, the final and most important part of this feast of death was eliminated early, and all that remained was to deprive the jade dragon Ysera, the stupid and cute female dragon, of the most lucrative benefits, and prepare for the ultimate plan later.

Originally, everything was foolproof, but this little ogre who was accidentally killed, a ** righteous son who was adopted by Ysera at will on a whim, would jump out and fight against himself, and the strongest military force in this empire. What's even more ridiculous is that he was able to do this. If it weren't for this blood-stained bastard who lured himself away from the emerald dragon Ysera, how could the two wild mongrels of Saphiras and Sarasa have a chance to steal the Scale-Reverse Soul Blood and mess everything up.

Like Zod, Goron is in a bad mood right now, and although Ysera's wounds are no longer bleeding, he can still feel life speeding away from this beautiful dragon body.

This was partly due to the fact that Ysera's Scales Essentials had been battered and her precious blood had almost been drained, but also because the poor mother had lost the will to live.

Mourning...... It's more than the heart dies......

Looking at the little ogre who was busy around his seriously injured body, the stiff eyes of the female dragon finally revealed a trace of tenderness, the dragon's mouth moved, and a voice sounded directly in the depths of everyone's souls.

"Enough, kid, you've done enough for me, for me...... In the end, I finally have a child who does not dislike me, does not resent me, and is willing to stay by my side until I am about to return to the arms of the dragon god...... Me, I have no regrets......"

Hearing Ysera's last words, Michelle's eyes were a little moist. is also a woman, although she has not yet married and had children, she can still somewhat understand Ysera's mood at this time.

What could be more painful than being betrayed by the person he loves the most, especially when that person is the biological son of Ysera who is willing to sacrifice herself to save. If the children really need their mother's blood to grow up, I believe that Ysera will be like her sister Juhaishen, willing to give everything she has, because this is mother's love, the greatest power in the world.

However, Safiras and Sarasa have chosen the worst and most forbidden path of no return. This blow not only killed Ysera's body, but also directly killed her soul.

Anyone could tell that although Ysera's words of comfort to the little ogre seemed to have no regrets, it didn't mean that she had really let go of everything. Although the appearance of Goron, the righteous son, was the last beam of light cast in the abyss of despair, it did not mean that this light could illuminate the entire abyss.
