Volume 1 [Flame Chapter] Dragon Death Chapter 150 Dragon Qing (26): The Army of the Sky
"This, such a huge steel monster, why did it appear in the imperial capital?"
Standing in front of Yegu and looking up at the sky, Thunder shouted, as if he was oppressed by the steel beast in front of him.
Indeed, such a vast existence, which has never been in touch with anything familiar in people's minds, is like the deep sea where the light cannot shine, and it brings strange people nothing but fear of the unknown.
Even Ringu, the eldest of the four, looked up at the sky calmly on the surface, but his heart was stabbed by a sudden fear.
Simply Lingu can be regarded as having seen a lot of darkness and illusion that ordinary people have not seen, and this kind of impact will not stay in his heart for long. And Ye Gu behind him had also seen similar machines with his own eyes when he was in Nandu, so there was more admiration and doubt in his mind.
"This is several times bigger than the one in the Southern Capital Wu Machine, an existence of several hundred meters like this, if you only use machinery, can you really levitate so safely?" Ye Gu secretly wondered.
Even though Ye Gu was so calm, many low-level citizens and lower-level soldiers in the imperial capital still let out frightened screams and panicked words at the same time without exception.
"What is this?
"This must be a dark dragon, don't come here!"
"Leave me alone, don't kill us!"
......
This intense fear and panic only lasted for ten minutes, and with the appearance of security troops from all over the imperial capital to appease, among the ordinary citizens, there was finally a temporary calming mood.
After all, the soldiers of the Empire are still able to give the citizens a sense of reliability and trust.
But the fear of the unknown and darkness in people's hearts is innate, and if there is no power to explain and guide it, it will inevitably be another disaster.
......
The huge airship seemed to have taken off from somewhere on the outskirts of the Imperial Capital, about the same length as Yegu's route from the slums of the Imperial Capital to another slum, and since the strange airship made of steel didn't seem to be good at speed, it only traveled less than half of the original route under the roar of the ten minutes.
Thankfully, however, the unsettling roar gradually faded as it went, and was completely dissipated within twenty minutes of the start of the distance.
In its place, there was a familiar and ethereal voice that emanated from the steel airship to the entire Imperial Capital.
"Dear people, nobles and soldiers of the Imperial Capital, congratulations on ushering in a new era belonging to the Flame Empire. The voice said in a high-pitched voice.
Although the sound was somewhat distorted by some kind of mechanical diffusion, Ye Gu, who was a nobleman of the empire, could still hear its owner at once.
"Little Emperor? It's him! This huge airship can't be built by the Luo family. No, it shouldn't be possible for a short time. In this case, it was the Luo family that was built in advance and dedicated to the little emperor. Unexpectedly, has the Luo family decided to cooperate with the imperial capital? Is what Yanfa said true or false?" Ye Gu's brain spun rapidly and thought.
But after a few seconds of silence, the ethereal voice of the little emperor came out of the airship again. It seems that the pause just now is not a termination, but a temporary respite.
"Our great Flame Empire, since the Ancestor Yanjun defeated the Dragon Clan to obtain the Spirit Stone Creation, a total of five hundred and thirty-one years have passed. In the past five hundred years, as an empire with half the blood of the dragon family, they have been enjoying the blessings brought by the dragon family. With the dragon ruins of the hidden capital, the hot ground has turned into a moist plain, and with the dragon ruins of the Gu River and the Blue River, for at least a hundred years, the two great rivers that traverse the empire have not churned for a moment, silently providing a stable water source for the empire and nourishing the grain of the empire. It is precisely because of this that we were able to survive the strong enemy of the cold country outside the north, and wait until the complete disintegration of the cold country today. In the same way, because of the people of the Dragons and the Empire, the Middle Empire and the Western Empire will be friendly to us, bringing us a steady stream of trade for the benefit of commerce everywhere in the Empire.
Today, there are six days left until the date of the last resurgence of the dragons. Tomorrow's Imperial Capital will be closed in and out, creating the most stable environment for the Empire to work with the Dragons. And the elite soldiers, powerful magicians, new mechanics, and all those who love greatness from all over the empire will witness the beginning of the empire's greatest prosperity. We will seek peace through war, and exchange temporary suffering for long-term peace in the world. The little emperor spoke in a high-pitched voice.
Looking down from mid-air, the little emperor could already clearly see that the people who supported Long Qing from all over the imperial capital had run out of their homes and looked up at the airship that represented him.
The widespread fear and panic that had existed before had now been completely replaced by a kind of agitation and fanaticism.
After all, support for the empire and the emperor was enough to completely replace the unstable thinking that had been circulating for five hundred years in a year's preparation of propaganda.
After a few seconds of pause, an even louder, ethereal sound came from the airship.
"Dragons don't represent disaster, they represent fire and the future. All those who support Longqing, cheer, admire, and worship. The beginning of this new era, a new era, will be honored to be seen by you. As long as you wait and see the dragon ruins in the imperial capital six days later, you will be able to attest to the greatness of the empire and the world. This moment will be called the beginning of the Dragon Era by future generations. ”
The voice in the airship ended with the phrase "Dragon Era", and then disappeared after the echo echoed slightly. But at the same time, the entire imperial capital and the citizens and soldiers who stood and looked up were all still without exception, staring blankly at the sky.
After the slightly fragmented "shameless" evaluation and a few strong curses, the center of the imperial capital suddenly erupted into a cosmic cheer like a cannonball exploding.
This sound was no worse than the huge roar of the airship before, but it was also the strongest expression in the hearts of the citizens of the imperial capital and the low-level soldiers.
At this moment, it was as if they were bound to the fate of the Empire and the Dragons, and it was as if they were going to give everything to the future of the Empire.
Even the ghettos of the Empire seemed to make them forget where they were, and they ignored the four men in Imperial soldier uniforms who walked briskly through the crowd towards the center of the Imperial Capital.
......
The Flame Empire, over the imperial capital of Dijing Province, inside the airship.
"Ahem, ahem. ”
Due to the excited and continuous speech just now, the little emperor's throat was as dry as if it was being burned by flames at this time, but fortunately, wearing the uniform of an imperial official behind him, he looked like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy handed over a glass of water, which relieved him a little.
"Your Majesty, you don't need to be so excited. ”
The person who spoke was in Ye Mingyuan's wooden house fifteen days ago, and the follower Yanhai Army found Ye Mingyuan's Ziwu.
It was evident that the dark blue flame badge on his chest showed his dark blue identity.
"It's not that I'm excited, it's the future of the dragon's rebirth, which has to make my heart excited. The little emperor still maintained the same excitement as before.
After a few minutes of relief and calming his emotions, the little emperor exhaled, regained his composure and said, "Anyway, your deep blue flame method, are you sure it is missing?"
"That's right, he went to the slums and went on a mission on his own and then disappeared. I suspect he has run away for some benefit. Ziwu said, deliberately saying the word "interests" very clearly.
"In that case, can you control the rest of the Deep Blue?" the little emperor asked.
After a sudden excitement in his heart, Ziwu still tried his best to restrain that excitement, and replied deliberately flatly: "As long as Your Majesty is here, the Deep Blue can always serve the empire until the day of the annihilation of the universe." ”
"Very good," the little emperor smiled slightly, and slowly took out an object that emitted blue light from a delicate box on the iron table next to him, and continued: "Half a month ago, you were able to follow Yan Fa perfectly and find signs of his rebellion, which shows that you know how to hide, and at the same time, after discovering Ye Mingyuan, you can protect at a critical moment, which shows that you are very smart." Coupled with your willingness to serve the Empire, it means that you are loyal and worthy of the Empire's holy weapon, the Firedrop. ”
The little emperor said, handing the imperial holy weapon that emitted blue light like a drop of water to Ziwu.
"Minister, Lan Ziwu, deep depth, thank you for the holy weapon given by Your Majesty. As he spoke, Ziwu knelt on one knee and reached out with both hands to take the fire droplets from the little emperor's hands.
"Get up first, I've never liked to see people talking on their knees. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty. Ziwu put away the drops of fire and got up to stand.
"Did you know? It was with the Sacred Weapon of the Fire Drops that the Empire formed the Deep Blue two hundred years ago. It will give the inspired the power to combine water and fire, and as long as you can be the inspired person, you can also have the same power as the fire law. It's just a pity that he chose to run away at this time. But now that there are so many things in the imperial capital, I can't care about looking for him, and after Longqing is over, all the traitors in the empire will have to be sent to hell. The little emperor said viciously, turning his back to Ziwu.
"Your Majesty, I can be the one who inspires. Ziwu promised, and his hand unconsciously touched the fire droplets in his pocket. But unfortunately, this first touch, he didn't feel any fluctuations in the magic source power.
"Inspiration doesn't come at all times, but being able to perceive it at the moment of truth is the ultimate source of strength. You and Yan Ling are the best guarantee for the imperial capital this time, and those royal generals and prime ministers of the Luo family actually don't believe it. In the end, they were just an indispensable foil for Long Qing, and if they dared to oppose Long Qing or rebel like Yan Hai, I would not spare them either. The little emperor said, picked up the scepter he was carrying beside him, walked briskly past Ziwu, and walked out of the airship control room where he was just now.
In less than ten minutes, the huge airship of the imperial capital easily landed in the center of the huge dragon ruins behind the palace. This belongs to the relics of the dragon clan in the imperial capital of Yima Pingchuan, which is enough to exchange the largest space for the little emperor's Longqing.
But at the same time, the fanatical citizens of the imperial capital gradually dispersed and returned to their usual actions.
Except for a few who were still discussing Long Qing with excitement, most people didn't see the fanaticism on their faces that they had been an hour ago.
As the giant airship and the small mechanical glider of his followers fell, the little emperor slowly descended from the gate and descended into the remains of the Silent Dragons with only him and the army of the Imperial Capital.
