"Whew."

Caesar, who returned to the material plane, breathed a sigh of relief, compared to the complex environment of the astral plane, he still preferred the safety and stability of Eladia, and the wonderful feeling of breathing oxygen again made the black dragon couldn't help but stretch his body, and his eyes narrowed to reveal a comfortable expression.

After taking some time to readjust, Caesar glanced at the god he had taken back to Eladia, Acleosis, who had lost his divine fire, had lost his power and had fallen to the realm of legends, and even his intelligence had been affected, and now it looked sluggish and demented, constantly oozing out a gray mood of bleak despair.

"Poor fellow." Caesar said in a tone of pity, it seemed that Acleosis could not accept the reality and was still immersed in self-doubt, so he sealed the guy with psionic energy and threw him into the alien space he had created.

He didn't plan to return to the Black Wing Empire immediately, and threw Acleosis to Odin as a toy, as soon as his journey had just begun, he finally threw all kinds of things and ran out, Caesar didn't want to turn around and go home as soon as he went out; Second, he didn't know a lot about the gods, and he didn't know if Acleosis still had the possibility of regaining his strength, so in order to avoid accidents, the black dragon decided to take it with him to observe, and after making sure that it was not dangerous, he would hand it over to the clan leaders and Odin who were interested in it.

In addition, the divine fire that has just been devoured will also take time to digest.

After the thought was over, Caesar flapped his wings and left the ruined crown of the firmament, and decided to continue to visit the various kingdoms of the riverlands, even if he experienced a god-level battle, the black dragon still did not need to rest his spirit and lick his wounds, the fusion furnace nourished and repaired itself with energy all the time, and as a psionic master, the experience of dry mental power Caesar encountered frequently during training, as long as he did not use psionic energy in the future, that thing could recover quickly.

The Andriy Kingdom is the most common in Eladia, ruled by the royal family and many fiefdom nobles, this kind of decay and obsolescence in the eyes of Caesar, is still popular in the regions of Eladia, the Andriy Kingdom is the most extensive territory in the Riverlands, the most powerful country, there are many famous knights and spellcasters, according to historical records, the Andriy Kingdom has a history of nearly 1,000 years, and the trade federation is also the product of the human northward migration period at the beginning of the Third Age.

Ancient history has brought with it intertwined hatreds and conflicts of interest, the sordid dealings between the great nobles and slave owners, the daily ramps of alliances, betrayals and alliances, the emergence of gods and goddesses, the spread of doctrine and the struggle for faith, the existence of countless temples and the creation of stories for bards and dramatists.

It's just that recently, with the division war of the Trade Federation, the southward movement of the Elsala army, etc., the kingdom of Andriy has been quiet for a while, and the royal family and most of the lords have turned their attention to their eastern neighbors, thinking about whether to get a piece of the war.

Corinthia, where the Crown of the Dome is located, was once the center of the Andriy Kingdom, and today it is still an important manufacturing and commercial town, the economic center of the Andriy Kingdom, and now Corinthia still has a population of nearly 150,000, which is considered a fairly populous city on the continent of Eladia, and Corinthia is also a rare mixed city, but it is limited to humanoids, including many halflings, elves, and some dwarves outside the Three Castle system.

Caesar soared high above Corinthia, with a faint rainbow light above his head, which was the color of the energy burst from the previous battle in the astral plane on the boundary wall, the black dragon flicked his tail and lowered his altitude, he decided to go to the city of Corinthia, and collect detailed information about the southern half of the continent while experiencing life.

Due to the key protection of the royal family, as well as the needs of the surrounding feudal nobles for commerce and material circulation, Corinthia has maintained relative stability in the disputes of lords, and there are few wars around the city in peacetime, although the city is still indispensable for adventurers, mercenaries and assassinations, but this is also all the bloody conflict in Corinthia, but now, it seems that it will usher in an unprecedented crisis.

The first to get the news was the temple, because there is no restriction on faith, almost all the human gods, elven gods and halfling gods have built temples in Corinthia, in addition to the evil gods and false gods that exist secretly, there are more than five gods who have passed oracles to his followers, indicating that a powerful and irresistible force is rapidly approaching the city, and those temples that have not received oracles, their bishops are also aware of the terrible events that have happened in the crown of the firmament because of the high perception gained by serving the gods.

The Black Emperor Caesar Targaryen, whose prestige and unusually hideous appearance have long spread throughout the continent of Eladia, and now that there is an oracle indicating that this dragon is approaching Corinthia, it has become an urgent problem for the royal family, lords and temples to deal with the terrifying black dragon king.

In fact, there is no need to worry about this, because soon, Caesar's breath can no longer be traced, and disappears without a trace, and in the case of the black dragon's deliberate concealment, for a while, even the gods will be difficult to trace his traces.

Unlike the true dragons who like to pretend to be black-robed, low-hatted human mages, or bold mercenaries, Caesar has no special preference for humanoid form, and when he can't use his second form, he dresses like an ordinary adventurer and traveler, with his unremarkable posture and appearance, unremarkable clothing and accent, and unremarkable strength and smell that make the two spearmen at the gate of the castle uninterested in him.

Thus, Caesar Targaryen, an ordinary adventurer, followed a group of mercenaries and successfully entered Corinthia.

Although it is close to July at this time, it is the height of summer, but the Kingdom of Andria is located in the south of Eladia, with unique climatic characteristics, the hottest time of the year is only more than 30 degrees Celsius, and the evening is even cooler, as soon as you enter the castle, it is a crowded market, the streets are full of sewage and garbage, Caesar knows that except for the Black Wing Empire, most of the cities in Eladia are like this.

He walked straight through the noisy bazaar, first wandered around the Corinthian weapons and armor shops and forge houses, and harvested an enchanted dagger, a knight's greatsword, and a whole set of black-veined full-body armor that meant more than protection, which was a very different shopping experience from the territory of the Blackwing Empire, and the feeling of spending money was really very pleasant, especially when you had endless money to spend.

The casual play did not end until Caesar received a secret leaflet, staring with interest at the papyrus in his hand, a woman in a gray hood thrust into his arms in the crowd, with a hymn in the tune of "Dragon's wings cover the sky, storms sweep the earth, hold the power of the world, control the mysteries of life and death, the gods are invincible to his majesty, and when the stars are in the right place, he will whisper to awaken the fiery doom." All things will eventually pass away, everything will be annihilated, and only the Black Emperor and his servants will look down on the world. ”

Underneath the poem is a line of small letters: "If you are interested in poetry or 'Him,' welcome to our meeting tonight at the Saibay Tavern." ”

Caesar showed a strange expression, if he guessed correctly, this "he" most likely refers to himself, this is too interesting, although there are many races in the Black Wing Empire who regard black dragons as idolatry, but it seems to be the first time that such an exaggeration has put him on the altar, very good, he likes it very much, and Caesar who is interested decides to go to the tavern at night to take a look at this organization, if those guys are religious enough, he does not hesitate to give a real "reward".
