Chapter 69: Escape
The mana storm roared by, leaving nothing but nothingness in place.
The Green Capital Legion pounced.
"Damn."
Sylvia followed, cursing in a low voice as she watched the elemental ripples ripple in the void.
Originally, since the appearance of the green dragon, the rhythm has been under the control of the great poisonous mother, as an elderly dragon who has lived for more than 400 years, occasionally some unexpected situations are not difficult for Sylvia, she has been holding a condescending posture, looking down on the black dragon and its poor and weak dependents.
Now, they've escaped!
Right under her nose!
"Tracking."
The emerald body of the huge green dragon flowed with brilliance, and Sylvia raised her claws and placed her right forelimb on the spot where the black dragon had stood before, her eyes closed, and she used her magic ability to start searching, tracing the location of the target.
"Damn."
Soon, Sylvia reopened her emerald green eyes, and with a flash of annoyance in her eyes, she cursed again: "This little dog really deserves to go to hell, even if he is going to die, he will not live in peace, and before he dies, he is still thinking about erasing the traces of other people." β
"I'm willing to waste time for such a trick."
The green dragon crunched her long, narrow teeth, "If he doesn't do this, there is every chance that he will be able to escape with the black dragon." β
"I'm afraid he'll have to."
At this time, Roy also walked over and stared at the handful of dust on the ground: "This spellcaster became very powerful at the last moment, and actually has the power to fight you. I guess that's the ability that you have to pay some kind of price to get? β
"Elemental ignition, irreversible magic. The cost is permanent loss of casting ability, or even life. Sylvia replied with a grim face.
She was a little embarrassed, as the lord of the green capital, she was defeated in a confrontation with an orc, although the other party lost his life permanently, but for this result, the green dragon still couldn't accept it.
"That's right."
Roy nodded, and took a few steps closer: "The old thing is very smart, and he must know that if you don't stay to erase these traces, you will soon be able to find them again." Could it be that when he loses his strength, the black dragon can teleport again? β
"Hmph."
Mother Poison turned her head to look at Roy, her nose twitching, and she let out a dragon-like grunt: "Boy, he did the right thing, but he was causing us trouble, and I can't track down the exact location of the black dragon right now." β
Sylvia was a little uneasy, according to common sense, the lord of the green capital, who was full of wings and strong in his own right, would not take the weak who fled to heart in his heart.
But this time, she had an ominous premonition.
The Mother of Poison has made many enemies over the years, and one of her enemies, Nesartoria, is directly related to the guy just now.
However, the Mother of Poison didn't take it very seriously, it was just a reckless and brutal fool, and Sylvia was more afraid of the magically incompetent black dragon that had just escaped from under her nose.
This guy is an absolute scourge.
Whether it's its swift and strong dragon body, or the elemental resistance it exhibits, or the flaming and frosty breath that never appears on a black dragon, it proves that this black dragon is a freak without a doubt.
It's no exaggeration to say that it's not the same dragon species as the other black dragons, and compared to its mother, this monster dragon can multiply its threat several times.
It's only been a few years, and this guy has grown to the point where he is close to his mother, and his physical fitness is definitely stronger than Nesartoria, and it will be better in a few years or more than ten years?
The good thing it doesn't work.
Sylvia comforted herself in this way, and the uneasiness in her heart dropped a lot.
"Untraceable? You're kidding. β
Roy smiled, and waited until he attracted Sylvia's gaze before he continued to speak: "Teleportation spells like this, there is always a distance limit, right?" Even you, I'm afraid, can't transfer anything thousands of miles away directly here. β
"There are limitations."
Sylvia was attracted by his words and nodded intently: "Even if I do, I can only teleport within a hundred miles at most. β
"Really? Let's assume that the old thing's ability before death is similar to yours. β
Roy crouched down, picked up a short spear from the ground, brushed the dust off in front of him, and marked a dot on the ground: "This is where we are now." β
Subsequently, he drew a rough circle centered on this point: "This is a distance of a hundred miles. The black dragon must be within this range. β
"Next, you only need to send your Green Capital Legion to search this area in all directions, which should not have touched the territory of the northern countries, so this is not too difficult for you."
After speaking, Roy stood up again, threw away the short spear, clapped his hands up and down, and wiped the dirt from his palm: "Of course, these are only the current distances, and the range will become larger and larger as time goes on, and if the black dragon is smart enough, it will probably start fleeing by now." β
"So you have to find it and kill it as soon as possible."
"The Brandos have suffered heavy losses and are now unable to support themselves, so please forgive me for my incompetence and inability to help my allies."
Roy touched his chest and bowed to the green dragon with apologies, this sentence did not have any deceptive elements, after this battle, the elite soldiers under his command have almost been exhausted, and there is indeed no longer enough strength to participate in the search for the black dragon.
"I'll leave this matter to you, I must now rush back to Kaki and take responsibility from the Earl." Roy summoned his remaining hundred or so soldiers and turned on his horse: "Goodbye, ma'am, I wish you success in the hunt." β
"Oh, yes."
Roy rode a few steps, and then suddenly turned his horse: "I can't let the outside world know the relationship between the Mother of Poison and the Brando family, so these broken-mouthed adventurers and mercenaries should be handed over to the Green Capital Legion, it seems that your dependents are also a little impatient." β
"As for the charges, I will place them on the black dragon's head for you."
After handing over everything one by one, the young nobleman grabbed his horse's belly and galloped back to Kaki, the border of the northern Rhine principality.
Watching Roy's back gradually disappear from sight, Sylvia, the mother of poison, finally looked back and raised her chin at the adventurers and mercenaries who were huddled in the corner of the "Pond Fish Cage Bird" for warmth.
The ogre and the wyvern immediately roared and pounced.
