Sitting on the dragon's back, I once again felt a feeling of speed. The dragon beneath me didn't seem to like me very much, for as soon as I rode on him, he told me that he had a bad smell in me, and that he had to pay attention to the fact that if I offended him, he would throw me off his back.

I just don't care about it as if it were the wind in my ears. Well, the altitude at which these dragons fly is indeed a bit high, and I roughly calculated that they are about four or five hundred meters above the ground now. But can such a height really threaten my life? Well, it can't be. What's more, if it weren't for the fact that these dragons were the support that the Denomah Empire desperately needed, I'm afraid I would have fallen out with them by now.

The dragon is so fast that it takes us a few breaths to pass through a dense forest. The dragons let out loud dragon moans and strange cries, but I didn't hear them speak the lingua franca of the mainland, maybe because they didn't want me to understand.

But it doesn't matter, I don't like to understand what they say, as long as they can quickly bring me to the city of barriers, and the rest has nothing to do with me.

I have to say that having a dragon as a mount is different from before. It had taken us so long to get to the city of armor on the brink of destruction, but now we had already covered almost half the distance in less than a day. I still remember that below this, we defeated several servants of the ancient demon god with great difficulty, and later met the exiled apostle, which made the experience even more incredible in itself.

The dragons didn't choose to rest in the middle of the race, and their strong physique allowed them to fly long distances without resting, which I still envy very much. However, they have a disadvantage that they are too arrogant and easily driven by their nature, otherwise with their strong individual strength, they would not have been driven to Dragon Island like they are now.

From the City of Armor to the City of Barriers, it took us a total of one and a half days. For a day and a half, apart from the dragon's verbal threats to me at the beginning, there was basically no communication between us. In the afternoon of this day, I finally saw the city of the former fortress.

Well, in fact, the first thing I saw was the piles of smoke, followed by the outline of a large city. On the periphery of the city's silhouette, dozens of smoke were scattered and floated, and whether the owner of the smoke was an apostle or a soldier of the Dnomah Empire, it was not very good for this city.

"Your Excellency, can you let a few of your companions go to the aid first, and we'll circle around the city to see where we can land. ”

"Remember, a race like yours must speak to our great dragons with honorific titles!!"

I shrugged my shoulders and said, "It's good if you're happy, well, it's good if you're happy." ”

"Undead, if it weren't for the fact that you made a deal with us, I would definitely have eaten you!"

Hehe, let's not say I'm an undead, and my own meat is not delicious. Let's just say that this dragon has the strength to eat me? I just smiled and ignored him.

However, he still honestly followed what I said, and the six dragons scattered in twos and flew towards the city of the fortress not far away. The remaining seven dragons were slowly hovering directly above the Barrier City, and a huge shadow shrouded almost the entire Barrier City.

As if frightened by us, the city of the fortress shot hundreds of arrows at us. But the number of arrows was too small, and it couldn't reach such a high distance, so it didn't do any damage to us. "Your Excellency, let's go down. I said to the dragon whose name I was not interested in, and by the way, I looked at the three teams of six dragons scattered in three directions of the Fortress City, and the dragon's breath sprayed out of the city as if it didn't want money. And those who were sprayed by the dragon's breath were naturally those apostles.

Then, as if I heard the sound of the apostles' war drums, this is probably the meaning of retreat. In short, the dense black stuff on the ground scattered a little messily towards the opposite place of the fortress city. Then, I vaguely heard bursts of cheers coming from the city of the fortress.

The cheers weren't so loud at first. Perhaps they thought the shadow hanging over their heads was the new class of the apostles. But when some old people who had more or less heard of the dragon clan saw our deity clearly, they excitedly shouted in a trembling tone to the people around them.

"God above, thank you for sending the dragon to help us. Dragon, God, this is a real dragon!"

Gradually, the cheers gradually became louder, and I even saw a lot of people covering their faces and crying with joy. Some of the wiser people have begun to clear a large platform for us in the city of the ramparts so that these massive dragons can land. And on one of the walls, I saw a relatively familiar figure, the first of the barriers. It's just that compared to the time when he said goodbye to him not long ago, the current Barrier I looks more like an old man in his seventies and eighties.

I jumped off the dragon's body and slowly came to his side, looking at the old man, who was so emaciated that he could only sit in a chair, and my heart was full of mixed feelings. He still tried to stand up, but it was extremely difficult, and I quickly grabbed him.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, why are you aging so fast?"

Probably unable to stand up, the first of the walls sat back in his chair trembling with the support of his guards and me. "yes, old. But I finally saw you back. What about the other soldiers?"

"He didn't travel with me. Your Majesty, I need a big, big field. ”

"Yes, yes, as long as it is a request. It's just that the old eyes still reveal a little doubt: "Madam, can you let me know what you plan to do?"

"Of course. I nodded, "It's not just these fourteen dragons who have come back with me, there are actually many more. Including a dragon, the army that I brought out earlier, and Sir Scarred, and a few of my 。。。。。。 A few buddies. ”

"Yes, yes, the Denoma Empire has been saved... "The Barrier I was immediately happy to close his mouth, but suddenly he coughed violently, and several mouthfuls of blood suddenly spurted out of his mouth and got on my clothes. I was startled, hurriedly helped him, and asked a middle-aged man dressed as a doctor who came from the busy, "What's wrong with His Majesty the Emperor?"

The physician did not rush to answer me, but immediately gave orders to the servants.

"Who told you to push His Majesty the Emperor out? I told you that you should pay attention to His Majesty's every move at all times, don't let him move around at will, and don't come into contact with the outside world! Don't you understand? If Your Majesty the Emperor has any three strengths and two weaknesses, it will not be enough to pull your family out for burial! Hurry up, bring the medicine, hurry up!"

I stood awkwardly, a little bewildered, until the servants took a bowl of black potion in three steps and two steps, and slowly let the barrier I take it, that he recovered temporarily. He smiled weakly at me and said, "It's just a small problem." Don't worry, don't worry... ”

I silently recalled his appearance before, although he had entered middle age, but he still looked so strong, so powerful. Why has it been since we haven't seen each other for a long time, but it has already become like this? This situation does not seem to be natural at all, and the only possibility is that someone has been assassinated.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter with you? Did someone poison you?"

The Barrier I only waved his hand weakly, but the doctor replied to me with a sad face: "Ma'am, it is actually really strange that at noon one day not long after you left, your Majesty suddenly fainted when you were about to eat. And then it slowly became what it is now. ”

"Is it poisoning?"

"No, I didn't. The doctor glanced at the weak barrier and was very worried: "If it is poisoned, then poisoning the food is the best choice." But at that time, His Majesty the Emperor had not yet eaten and suddenly fainted. I checked it myself and found that the food had not moved. So this point can be ruled out. Moreover, His Majesty was in his palace at that time, and the servants and samurai were doing their duty, and nothing unusual was found. ”

"What about the drinking water?"

"It's okay to drink water, His Majesty the Emperor likes to drink, and the imperial wine is also completely sealed, and only His Majesty the Emperor can open it himself. ”

That's weird. Since the most poisonous food was not eaten, and the water was drunk as a royal wine known only to him, why did the Barrier I suddenly faint?" "Are you sure which guards and servants are reliable?"

The physician seemed surprised that I would be suspicious of the guards and servants, "Well, ma'am, I'll tell you that. Even if there were unreliable people among them, they would not have thought of taking refuge in the apostles anyway. After all, these apostles are not in our world, and many of the family members and friends of those guards and servants were either killed by the apostles or sent to the apostolic world as slaves, and they have a deep hatred for the apostles just like us! In addition, there is no communication channel with the apostles, and even if they want to join the apostles, the apostles will not necessarily cooperate with them. But speaking of which, this is too unbelievable, I have decades of medical experience, but I have not found out what poison His Majesty the Emperor has in, and I can only barely alleviate His Majesty's symptoms. ”

Barrier I reluctantly opened his eyes, his face haggard. "Don't worry, ma'am. I'm fine, I can still hold on... Spread the order, pass the order, empty the outside of the city of barriers, and let the warriors, go home!"

After saying that, Barrier I fell down on the chair as if he had used the last of his strength. The doctor next to him touched his snort with a frightened face, but fortunately it was a false alarm in the end. "Alright, let His Majesty the Emperor go back and rest, if nothing else, let His Majesty the Emperor get plenty of rest, ma'am, we take our leave. ”

I watched them fade away, and a middle-aged man in his forties with a vicissitudes of life came to me. He was dressed in a brown robe, and had a shield pin pinned to his chest, representing the current royal family of the Denoma Empire. "Ma'am, I am Prince Andrew, and during the period when His Majesty the Emperor is recuperating, I am in charge of the affairs of the City of Barriers. When Jazz comes back, I'll hand over all my strength to Jazz as soon as I get back. ”

I looked at this middle-aged man with some suspicion who didn't look very kind. I hadn't seen any Prince Andrew before, and I always thought that the highest-ranking Prince Andrew in the entire Denomah Empire outside of the Barrier was Lord Scarred, so where did this Prince Andrew come from? If he really hid himself deep enough, why did he suddenly appear at this time? Could it be that he felt that now was the perfect time for them? However, if he really had a bad heart, then why did he say that he would hand over all his strength to Sir Scar when he returned?

"Yes, Prince. Now please help me clear the area outside the South Gate. Now that the war is over for the time being, the apostles should not be launching a second attack. "I look at the dragons hovering because they give me courage. At least, the apostles wouldn't have been so bold while they were here. ”

"As you wish, ma'am. Duke Andrew nodded to me, and after about ten minutes, a group of troops of the Denoma Empire of several hundred people came out of the garrisoned city wall. They were the soldiers who garrisoned this section of the wall, and in previous wars, it was because of their efforts that the capital of the Denoma Empire would not be destroyed before the arrival of the dragons.

Actually, there isn't much to clean up in this outer city. The dragon's flames burned the apostles outside the Fortress City with great precision, but did not cause the slightest damage to the soldiers above the walls of the Fortress City. However, the land outside the city was like a baptism, and under the orders of Prince Andrew, the soldiers scattered outside the city, and there were two or three dragons in the sky constantly wandering, always vigilant for every move around them.
