The dragon's crusade is certainly not smooth sailing, and there will inevitably be a large number of warriors who will die at the hands of the dragon, but the warriors who have already embarked on the journey have already realized this, and it can even be said that as a warrior, when they pick up the weapon in their hands, they are ready to die on the battlefield one day.

However, it doesn't matter, death is not something to be feared, and their death is not meaningless, since they died on the battlefield for the good of the Empire, then according to the rules of the Empire, their loved ones will be well taken care of.

Their children will be given free schooling, their wives and parents will be given enough money to get them out of trouble, and the land allocated to them will be enough to make the family worry about living.

Of course, if they can come back alive from the battlefield and bring victory to the empire, they will receive a lot of treatment, not to mention the distribution of the spoils, the empire naturally has a perfect spoils distribution system, ensuring that the spoils obtained from the battlefield can be fairly distributed to the hands of each warrior.

A fair and perfect spoils system is necessary, after all, only in this way will the soldiers fight the battlefield, and there will be no unfairness and the phenomenon of fishing in water.

If the distribution is uneven, then it is absolutely fatal for an army, which will cause most of the soldiers to be reluctant to fight, after all, if you don't fight, you can get the distribution of the spoils, and you don't need to pay anything to get the harvest, so who is willing to fight with their lives.

Dragons are arrogant, arrogant to the point of stupidity, their brains have been taken over by treasure, and they have completely abandoned their fear of Alice, even thinking that what they have done is not enough for Alice to do it.

They only killed ordinary people, they destroyed only ordinary villages, and they didn't think that Alice would spend a lot of effort and time to crusade against them for the sake of these so-called ordinary people.

Having said that, they are dragons, but they can fly, and they have extremely terrifying mobility, and they can choose to retreat when Alice comes, and retreat to a safe place that Alice can't reach.

They even thought that such a method would leave Alice in a hurry, and that after suffering a serious loss, Alice would bow to them and return to them the treasure she had plundered from them.

When they found out that the armies of the mortals were in their territory, they looked at them with a joke, and they ordered their gnolls and monsters like goblins to attack them.

They thought that this was enough, after all, it was only an army of mortals, and if they let the powerful dragon attack, even if they won the victory, they would be ridiculed by the other dragons, which the arrogant and arrogant dragons did not want.

However, the unorganized gnolls and goblins were easily routed by these armies, without even inflicting any losses on them, and it was absolutely desperate to be able to clash with the most rudimentary bone, stone, and wood weapons in their hands, and equipment made of metal.

The dragon was furious at the defeat of his army, but in his anger, he looked greedily at the enemies that appeared before them, and they recognized them as they were.

Gnolls, werewolves, humans, rhinoceros people and a little harpy, there is only one Baltic Empire that can have so many races mixed together in the Northland, and the other Scandinavian Empire and the Attila Empire, although they are also mixed with multiple races, but each of them is very distinct, the gnoll army is the jackal army, and the centaur force is the centaur force.

Unlike the Baltic Empire, those who are good at using bows and arrows enter the bow and arrow unit, those who are good at throwing stones enter the slinging unit, and those who are tall and powerful enter the heavy infantry unit.

The armor and weapons must have been very preceding, and the well-trained warriors must have been the goods recovered by the slave traders at a high price, and in the southern arenas, warriors like this were valuable slaves, because a strong warrior could bring extremely good profits to the owner of the arena.

"What arrogance, dragon. ”

The spellcasters hidden in the army gathered and discussed.

They didn't reveal their identities in the first place, because they had a certain understanding of the dragon's arrogance, and in the case of unequal intelligence, the presence of these spellcasters would definitely surprise the dragon, and maybe they could inflict heavy damage on the opponent with a single blow.

"Don't be too obvious, those dragons are arrogant and arrogant, but don't underestimate their intelligence. ”

The others reprimanded them, they didn't want this mission to be messed up, victory was a sure victory, they believed that it wouldn't take much effort to defeat these ignorant dragons, but they needed to preserve their strength in order to win.

If a crusade against a dragon inflicts huge losses on the army, it is definitely not the victory they want, and it can even be said that it is not a victory at all, and it is not what they want to achieve at all.

What they want to present to the Empire is not a just passing answer sheet, but it must be excellent grades to match their status as a spellcaster, so that the Empire can recognize their value.

The caster's research requires a lot of materials, the magic towers they need to build also require a lot of materials and funds, and the caster needs to gain sufficient knowledge if they want to improve their power, and this also requires money, or they need to prove their worth like the Empire.

None of the things provided by the empire are free, whether it is materials or knowledge, when the caster grows to a certain extent, it will not be supplied for free, and it can even be said that those that are supplied for free are no longer needed by the caster, and they cannot meet the needs of the caster.

And the only way to obtain more precious knowledge and magical materials is to reflect their own value, whether it is money, knowledge, or labor, it is acceptable.

Affected by this, spellcasters can be seen in all corners of the empire, and they can be seen using the magic of [turning mud into stone] to make stone materials for building cities in large quantities.

You can see that they patiently teach those apprentices who have not yet grown up, who have just come into contact with magic, and bring them into the path of magic, pursuing the mysteries of this world.

They can be seen entering factories to enchant weapons and equipment, using a near-assembly line method to create structures specifically designed for warfare, such as gargoyles.

The empire has developed so fast, these spellcasters have indelible credit, and it is their activity that has allowed magic to spread in all aspects of the empire, so that this empire can not fear or even defeat the goblin group that has accumulated and developed for many years in business.

Although there is a big difference in the rules, there are still gods and magic in this world, but this thing of national industrialization was still tinkered with by Alice, and it was first successful in Jutland.

The next step is to extend the extensive grazing agriculture to Schleswig, upgrade the extensive grazing agriculture into a large pasture situation, and develop a large number of animal husbandry while maintaining the healthy recovery of the pastures.

For an adult cow, meat can be used as food, offal can be provided to carnivorous pets and mounts, bull's meridians can be used to make bowstrings, cowhide can be used to make leather armor, and cow bones and horns are simple magical materials.

In addition to cattle, rhinoceros, horses, and sheep can be raised on a large scale, which can effectively alleviate the food pressure caused by the growth of the empire's population, so that every resident of the empire does not need to worry about the cold climate in winter, and the empire can sell them warm clothes and quilts at a very cheap price.

Of course, these things are only provided internally at a low price, and can only be used by the inhabitants of the empire, and are not allowed to be sold to outsiders, and if they are discovered, they will be severely punished, and in serious cases, they will be deprived of the identity of the inhabitants of the empire.

"Be careful, it's coming. ”

"Be careful, our goal is a black dragon and don't get sprayed by his dragon breath. ”

"Also, pay attention to his bites, claw strikes, and tails, I've told you many times about the weakness of dragons, their wings, necks, and stomachs are the places you need to focus on, if you don't want to die, just remember those things before. ”

The commander of the army said loudly, his hands drenched in sweat, and he looked at the black shadow that kept wandering in the sky, it was a full-grown black dragon, and among all the dragons, he could get the most cunning evaluation.

They had no way of knowing what kind of backhand this cunning black dragon was hiding, after all, the black dragon, which did not look much different from the bone dragon on the outside, also had a great talent for undead drives.

"Give me a good check of the ground to see if there are any undead in ambush underground. ”

"There's also the grass and snow nearby, and I want to know what's going on. ”

The commander commanded loudly, riding the dragon still watching them, and now that he was not attacking, he needed to drive out all the surprises that might arise on the battlefield, and he didn't want to wait for the dragon to confront them, and he had to defend against possible enemies.

"There are no ambushes underground. ”

"There was still grass under the snow, and there was no ambush in it. ”

"No traces of the undead were found. ”

Reports from scouts and spellcasters reassured the commander a little, perhaps due to the dragon's arrogance, but certainly good news for them, as it would increase their chances of winning.

"Shield, stand up!"

The commander roared loudly, and in his eyes, the dense black dots could already be clearly seen, and then like the sound of rain blowing, the sound of rain was heard secretly, and the green foul-smelling liquid dripped from the shield, corroding the ground with different shades of marks.

The dragon breath of the black dragon is acid, if these acids are dispersed and sprayed, it is a scene similar to acid rain, normally speaking, such an attack can directly make a jackal's army run away, because the jackals with only rudimentary protection have no way to resist the corrosion of these acids.

"Chains and javelins ready, it's ready to fly down!"

The dragon will not run away, this is the commander's judgment, since it will not run away, and the attack carried out in the high air is ineffective, then the opponent must lower the altitude and attack with a richer dragon breath, as if cleaning the floor.

The scattered dragon's breath can still be resisted, but if it is a dragon's breath at close range, the acid will seep through the gaps in the shield and armor, and corrode the warriors hiding behind the armor.

"The javelin is aimed at his belly and his wings, and the chains bind me around his neck and pull him off for me!"

The commander roared loudly, making sure that his orders could reach the ears of all the fighters around him.

This time, the javelins they used were all used in bed crossbows, javelins used to hunt large creatures, which were powerful and had a very short range, and the chains were made of fine iron to ensure that they would not be broken free by the dragon's strength and would not be destroyed by the dragon's breath.

The speed of the giant dragon hovering in the sky was very fast, and it took a few seconds to reach the air about ten meters above the army, and the heavy wind pressure made the warriors below squint their eyes and lower their bodies, and at the same time, the dragon power from the dragon acted on their hearts.

It was a mental suppression, wanting to drop their weapons, and those who took off their armor rushed out of their hearts uncontrollably, but even so, none of the troops turned around and fled, they tried to see through the gaps in their armor, grasping the weapons in their hands, looking for opportunities.

By this time, something had happened to the dragon, and he flapped his wings vigorously, and the terrible wind pressure blew up the snow and dust on the ground, and the warriors' vision began to be blocked, and visibility began to decrease.

"It's now!"

The Commander said loudly as a ball of light exploded in front of the dragon, and the sudden white light darkened the dragon's eyes, and the sharp pain from their eyes made their brains dizzy.

The flapping wings paused slightly, and the dragon fell to the ground, causing the ground to shake as the surrounding warriors shackled the dragon's body with chains, stabbed the dragon's wings with javelins, and nailed him to the ground.

The caster who completed the sudden blow began to quickly cast the next spell, and the [Gravity Spell] was stacked on the dragon's body one by one, in addition to the weakening spells such as [Weakness].

"Don't put it on his head, watch out for his breath, and tie his tail to me too, don't wave his tail at him!"

The commander was not overjoyed or shocked by the initial success, and he calmly ordered, according to the plan used to deal with the dragon, and gave the order step by step.
