Chapter 658: Escalation of conflict
"Hurry up, there are no dragon hunting crossbow arrows? Hurry up and shoot it, this white dragon is about to be unable to hold on." In the middle of a small iceberg, an adventurer with a tower shield in his hand shouted excitedly, staring at the crumbling white dragon in front of him.
"There are three more. ”
"Then what are you going to keep for? Hurry up and wind it up, don't keep it, just kill this dragon, all the coins we bought before can make up for it, and we will become the heroes of our hometown." ”
"Drag it a little longer, you know it's not going to be a bowstring. A strong man with arms as thick as an ordinary person's waist replied sullenly.
In his hand, there is a giant crossbow nearly two meters long, and behind his back, there are three dragon hunting crossbow arrows like spears, these are the smallest dragon hunting birds, which can only hunt the white dragon that is not yet a minor, which is considered the lowest level of dragon slaying equipment, but even so, the purchase of these has almost consumed the assets of their small adventure group.
This was the previous common decision of their team, the situation on the continent changed, and they, the middle and lower class adventurers, also noticed it, and they found that there were more and more dragon hunters from other continents, and the wilderness between cities was becoming safer and safer. Because the ice monsters and dragon beasts that roam the city are all swept away by those powerful humans.
And because of the increasingly safe ice field, this small adventure group has an idea that they have never thought of before, dragon hunting, as long as they can successfully hunt a white dragon, and then sell it, with the reputation of slaying dragons, as well as the income after slaying dragons, their small adventure group can live a rich life without worry, no longer have to fight.
Thinking of the benefits after slaying the dragon, the strong man who controlled the dragon hunter couldn't help but have a fire in his eyes, just the fame of slaying the dragon could make him easily find a good job in his hometown, for example, the captain of a nobleman's personal guard.
"Hurry up and die, evil white dragon!" the strong man looked at the white dragon, which was scarred and roared angrily, and the body was only more than ten meters in size, and cursed fiercely with his eyes.
Before that, they had no intersection with this white dragon, and before they found it, this white dragon was still in its own dragon's den, lazily sleeping, and did not make any moves, it was humans who took the initiative to attack it!
But what does that matter? Slaughtering the white dragon is politically correct here, all white dragons are evil, and all white dragons should die.
It's just that the white dragon, who has just entered the adolescent stage, stared fiercely at this team of adventurers of eight people, and on its body, there were four crossbow arrows stuck in her body, and the pale red dragon blood couldn't stop dripping from its body.
Its wounds could not heal, the loss of blood made its vitality continue to pass, and it felt that its time was short, and it was about to die here.
Thinking of this, the eyes of this white dragon became fierce and tyrannical, even if it was death, it would not make these humans feel better, it turned its head and spewed out a cold breath visible to the naked eye at the wounds on its body, directly freezing all the flesh and blood of its wounds everywhere, so that the blood would no longer flow.
Then, with a roar, it swooped forward, its wings were already wounded, or it would have flown away. In the face of the white dragon's attack, the two warriors holding the tower shield pushed it back, their faces turned red, and they repeatedly dripped blood, and a giant dragon, even the white dragon felt very uncomfortable.
In the back, a mage waved his staff, and one after another nasty fireballs of explosive flames fell on the white dragon's body and exploded, leaving scorch marks, which was a rare fire mage.
Humans roar, dragons roar, swords and spells bring endless slaughter and death...... Humans hunt dragons, and dragons also slaughter humans, and in the Denapsen subcontinent, as dragons fall, more than 100 times as many humans turn into corpses, and dragons are slaughtered at a price. While the dragon hunters succeeded in slaying dragons, more humans were exposed to the dragon's wrath.
In the Principality of the White Dragon, the corpses of dragon hunters hang in the most prominent places in the town, intimidating the daring dragon hunters and demonstrating the majesty of Frost Queen Claudia.
And when such a dispute occurred in the Deprosen subcontinent, according to Muria's order, Claudia still issued a conscription order to mobilize the legions, without any intention of stopping.
Snow Gnolls, Wyvern Dragoons, Frost Dragons, Frost Bears, Flame Dragons, ...... Legions of monsters of all kinds, assembled under Claudia's orders, and then advanced towards the fifteen principalities of the Northlands, and the clouds of war loomed over the Northlands.
The plan negotiated by the Northland Alliance did not have the slightest effect, but only made the situation more chaotic. Because now there are three crystal dragons, wreaking havoc in the human kingdom of the Northlands, venting their anger.
But fortunately, there were many legends who came across the sea to contain these three crystal ancient dragons, and did not further expand the casualties, but even so, it also made those grand dukes in the north very busy.
At this time, Claudia took her White Dragon Legion, under the arch of more than a million monster legions, to advance towards the Duchy of Mankind, in this case, as long as the dragon hunters with normal brains will not provoke Claudia, even if it is a legend, if there are enough of them, they will be piled to death, after all, the legend is not a perpetual motion machine, and the power is limited.
And when Claudia started the war, Muria was not by her side, but responded to the dragon's request for help and went to the kingdom of Thiago, where he wanted to help the dragon deal with the pestering church personnel.
"Your Highness Muria. Muria, who had just emerged from the teleportation array, saw Elph, the silver dragon queen waiting for her.
"What about the clergy of the Church?" Muria asked directly, he knew that these guys were starting to block the investigation of the Silver Dragons, they wanted to suppress this time, and out of some scruples, the Silver Dragons were not good at using these guys, after all, they did come with good intentions.
"Still in my palace. ”
"Tell me about the situation. ”
"These clergy were found when I held a mobilization meeting," the Silver Dragon Queen Elph had a look of helplessness on her face, "I want to mobilize all the silver dragons in the country, mobilize all the legions, and sweep away all the dragon hunters in the country, and be sure to find the missing silver dragon and the stolen dragon egg."
However, these humans came to us and said that they could help us with our investigation, and asked us not to make such a big fuss and expand the dispute, and let us wait for the results of their investigation. ”
"Ridiculous. Muria said coldly.
