Chapter 0611: Dragon's Tooth Terrace (Third Update, Alliance Leader Supplement 4/54)
It is gratifying to have a strong following, but Liszt values the character of the follower even more.
Jevic, who has repeatedly turned against the lord, and now is willing to defect to the invaders for a little ransom, can be described as a very inferior character.
On the earth, it is a person like Lu Bu, a slave with the third surname - of course, Lu Bu was the number one military general in the world in that era, and Yevic was not very strong in the Sword Saint, and the difference in strength between the two in the background of their respective times was huge. However, Jevic did not kill his father to seek glory, at most he turned against the lord.
It is not uncommon for lords and followers to fall out because of private conflicts.
Just because of his character, it is nothing to accept his following. Even the most despicable people must obediently accept the assignment when they come to his hands, otherwise Liszt's hollowing sword will not show mercy. Whether it's a dragon or a snake, it has to be coiled in his territory.
He was concerned about resources, and once Jevic followed him, then before he was divided, Jevic would definitely count on Liszt for his drug needs.
Even if all the elves were given to Liszt, that little production would not be able to satisfy the Swordmaster's need for potions.
Jevic is a candidate for a dragon knight, but he has only been at the level of a sword master for many years, which shows that he has probably never really enjoyed the pleasure of taking drugs with all his might.
"Although I can already afford the drug needs of me and the little fire dragon Leo, but to feed another Sword Saint, the territorial resources are stretched, it's not appropriate!"
This is one of the concerns.
The reason for the second concern was that it was too high-profile - the powerful defeat of the Juggernaut itself was already so high-profile that it could be detected by the Grand Duke of Sapphire at any time and arouse suspicion.
Accepting another Sword Saint to become a follower is for fear that the Grand Duke will not know, and take the initiative to remind the other party that "there must be something strange about this matter".
"However, why do I have a vague sense of excitement, that is, I want to provoke? Is it because I guessed that the Grand Duke is not a dragon knight, but just a dragon lord, so I don't pay attention to it?" he looked at Jevic Water Peanut, who was kneeling on the ground, but his mind drifted far away.
The Grand Duke did not dispatch this opening order.
As long as it is certain that the dragon knights of the Eagle Kingdom are pinned down by the dragon knights of the Steel Ridge Kingdom, there is no need for the Sapphire Dragon to appear.
As a general existence of the suppression of various countries, it is not a critical moment, and the dragon never appears easily - even if it is just injured, it will waste a lot of resources. For example, during the battle of the dragon slayer, the sapphire dragon's blood was sprinkled in the sky, leaving a mountain of blue blood, allowing the Eagle Kingdom to mine sapphire mines for hundreds of years.
These losses are unbearable for any country.
Last year's pioneering order, the reason why the Grand Duke dispatched was probably to show that the sapphire dragon was safe and sound. Therefore, there is no need to go out again this year, and it is most important to stay in the country and guard the country.
"On the back of the dragon is the dragon knight, and on the back of the dragon is the lord of the dragon domain...... The Grand Duke may really be just a Dragon Domain Lord, by the way, I can ask Jevic, he used to be a candidate for a Dragon Knight, participated in the Dragon Knight Project, and should know the secret of the flat position on the dragon's back!"
Thereupon.
He asked, "I have a few questions that I need you to answer for me." ”
"Please ask, sir!" Jevic had put himself in the role of a follower.
"You were a candidate for a dragon knight, and you were promoted to a knight of the sky at the age of sixteen, and in the following time, have you ever come into contact with a real dragon?"
"I've been in contact for a while, or I've been in contact with each of the three-headed dragons for a while, which are the white-mouthed iron dragon, the brass dragon, and the light emerald dragon. ”
"How many dragons are there in the Eagle Kingdom?"
"There are nine dragons in the kingdom, six dragons in the perilous land, and five dragons in the five kingdoms, making a total of twenty dragons. ”
"Where's the dragon knight?"
"There are six dragon knights in the kingdom, and two dragon knights in the subject country. ”
"What is the difference between the Dragon Knight and the Dragon Domain Lord?" Liszt gradually asked the question he really wanted to ask, the previous number of dragons, the number of dragon knights, was just a common sense.
Jevic frowned: "I don't know about the Lord of the Dragon Domain, and I only know a little about the Dragon Knight, so my lord, I can't tell you what the difference is between them." ”
"So, does the dragon knight have to make a pact with the dragon?"
"It's not a contract but a combination, and the deep combination of the dragon knight and the dragon can exert unimaginably powerful power. ”
"How does it fit?"
"Approved by dragons...... Jevic's tone was a little low, "dragons are intelligent and arrogant and powerful creatures, their intelligence is no different from that of adults, and the kingdom spends a lot of resources to feed these dragons, and the dragons return with minerals and assist in warfare. But only knights who have been approved can ride on their backs!"
"There's a difference between standing on your back and riding on your back?"
"Yes. ”
Jevic replied in the affirmative: "There is a place on the dragon's back called the 'Dragon's Tooth Table', which directly connects to the dragon's teeth. And the soul of the dragon lives in the teeth, so the knight can have a deep communication with the soul of the dragon when he rides on the dragon's tooth platform and completes the merger. ”
Hearing this, Liszt suddenly realized.
It is true that the Grand Duke of Sapphire did not succeed in riding the dragon, he was standing instead of sitting on the dragon's tooth platform. It can be judged that the Grand Duke has reached an agreement with the Sapphire Dragon to become a Dragon Domain Lord and also gain the power of the dragon. But apparently it is not recognized by the dragon and cannot be combined.
A Dragon Lord may have an extended lifespan, but his strength is definitely far inferior to that of a Dragon Knight.
Liszt understood this, and only felt much more relaxed on his body, giving him time, and surpassing the Grand Duke of Sapphire was only sooner or later. When he stood in front of the Grand Duke as a dragon knight, I am afraid that at that time, the Sapphire family should understand who is the true master of the sea.
He took a deep breath, reined in his fluctuating emotions, and continued to ask, "Do you know how to get the dragon's approval and then merge with the dragon?"
"I'm sorry sir, I'm just a sword master, and I can't look down on this bit of strength at all, let alone recognize me...... After that, I was abandoned for a while, and I was banished by the Dragon Knight Project, and I never had the chance to see the dragon again...... However, I have been taught by His Highness Alex White, the Dragon Knight. ”
"The dragon knight of the royal family?"
"Yes. ”
The royal family of the Eagle Kingdom has two surnames, one is "Moonlight Silver", which is derived from a silver dragon, and the other is "White Iron Dragon", which is derived from a white iron dragon. The Moonlight Silver branch has served as kings for generations, but it is rare to give birth to dragon knights, but the white iron branch can produce a dragon knight in the next generation.
Alex White Iron is the dragon knight of this generation, the princely title of the same rank as the Grand Duke, nearly forty years old, and his reputation is prominent.
Even as far away as the Grand Duchy of Sapphire, Liszt had heard of him, as he also had the heroic title of Dragon Slayer, who had slain an evil dragon that was said to be an ice dragon.
Squinted his eyes.
Liszt suddenly asked, "Jevic, compared to the dragon knight Alex Whiteiron, how do you think my strength is in front of him?"
"This ......"
"To be blunt, I'd like to be able to fully gauge the gap between me and the Dragon Knight. ”
"My lord, actually, I don't know, I haven't seen His Highness Alex actually make a move. And I can't even resist an adult's move, so I can't compare it at all...... However, in front of His Highness Alex, I feel uncomfortable even gasping for breath, which is better than that of adults. ”
"That's Long Wei, right?"
"It should be. ”
For the time being, Liszt only practiced with the little fire dragon Leo, and he was not recognized as a dragon knight, so he did not have dragon power.
The dragon power of the real dragon knight or the lord of the dragon domain, Liszt has felt it in front of the Grand Duke of Sapphire, and he does feel that it is difficult to breathe. The invisible dragon also gave him dragon power, and it also gave people the illusion that he was about to suffocate - even the newborn Leo had a faint dragon power.
Although Long Wei does not have direct attack power, he can definitely interfere with the opponent's actions.
Coupled with the cooperation of the dragon, it is not difficult to imagine how strong the dragon knight's combat power is.
Sighing slightly, Liszt couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems that the distance between me and the dragon knight is still very far. ”
Jevic suddenly excited: "The dragon knight is the pinnacle of the world's power, it is rare to see in ordinary times, and it is difficult to move at will. But the strength of the adult, second only to the dragon knight, is a powerful figure who can influence a battle. Your strength, I have only experienced it with the Marquis of Rock!"
"Marquis of Rock?"
