Volume 7: The Chamber of Secrets of Blackstone Mountain (Remastered) Chapter 54: Preparations Before Departure (2)

According to Yu Bin's memory, the Black Iron Dwarves built the huge dwarven city of Sorison City in the belly of the Black Rock Mountain, and based on this, it was divided into four regions.

Located at the bottom of the Blackstone Mountain, the area closest to the underground lava has now been occupied by the fire elemental lord Ragnaros, becoming his sleeping place, and the environment here has been slowly transformed by him into a suitable place for the fire elemental to survive, and the fire elemental legion from the fire element plane is the master here, guarding the sleeping Ragnaros. It was also called "Molten Heart" by players in the previous life.

Above the Molten Heart is the royal palace and noble quarter of Thorison City, where most of the royal family and nobles of the Black Iron Dwarves live, and with their summoning Ragnaros, these poor creatures have also become servants enslaved by the Fire Elemental Lords. In order to better drive those black iron dwarves, Ragnaros retains the power of most of the black iron dwarf nobles, and the black iron dwarf nobles led by Thorrison VI have now completely surrendered to the Fire Elemental Legion, using the lower levels of Thorrison City as a base to help the Fire Elemental Legion fight against the threat from the Black Dragon Legion.

Further up is the Artisan and Residential Quarters, which are now a place where the Black Dragon Legion and the Fire Elemental Legion are at loggerheads, where battles often break out. This area, along with the military district at the top, became the area where the Black Iron Dwarves who were enslaved by the Black Dragon Legion lived.

The top of the Black Rock Mountain was transformed by Nefarian into the residence of the Black Dragon Legion. The Black Dragon Prince and his Black Dragon Legion are entrenched here, driving the Black Iron Dwarves to attack. In previous lives, this place was also known as the "Nest of Black Wings".

Yu Bin reminisced about the Black Rock Mountain and considered how to deal with the chaos there. At this time period, neither Ragnaros nor Nefarian has expanded the war beyond Blackstone Mountain, so the two camps have not yet had a clear understanding of the issue of Blackstone Mountain, and many people still think that what is happening here is just internal turmoil among the Black Iron Dwarves.

In the previous life, this situation would have lasted until two years later, when Nefarion, who had already had a clear advantage, and the Fire Elemental Legion went to war in an all-out way, and the hidden danger of Blackstone Mountain was exposed to the two camps. But in this life, with the early return of Sinestra, Yu Bin felt that the black dragon prince probably couldn't wait.

Once Sinestella completes the integration of the underworld, he will inevitably order Nefarian to hand over the Black Dragon Legion in his hand, which is definitely not the result that the Black Dragon Prince wants to see.

As the clues about Black Stone Mountain were recalled, Yu Bin gradually had a complete plan.

At the same time, some people also set their sights on Blackstone Mountain!

In the Oberline Kingdom, in the mansion of the Duke of Rosselda, two middle-aged men were sitting opposite each other, exchanging the current situation.

"Reggie, are you telling the truth?" Wearing a purple aristocratic dress is Duke Rosselda, the Minister of State of the Oberline Kingdom, he is a typical nobleman, his own strength is not outstanding, only the fifth order, but he has a deep friendship with many noble families, which is also an important reason why he can become the Minister of State of the Oberline Kingdom.

Sitting on the other side was Marshal Reginald Windsol, a knight who had just been promoted to the rank of legend, but there was no trace of joy on his face after becoming a legend.

"Roseda, I'm not going to joke about this kind of thing!"

"That's bad news!" Duke Rosenda raised his hand, trying to soothe his frowning brow, but it was clear that the terrible situation had made him unable to relax at all, "As you can see, the kingdom doesn't have much power to expend now. ”

What has happened in the past year or so has been nothing short of a catastrophe for humanity as a whole.

The werewolf plague that broke out in the Silverpine Forest and the subsequent wave of shadows caused by it have firmly dragged the energy of the Ashwood Kingdom to the town of Nanhai, and until now, the kingdom still has to have a main army of more than 50,000 people stationed in that small town with a population of less than 100,000, coupled with the long border that needs to be guarded, the huge cost of day after day has made the nobles of the Ashwood Kingdom miserable.

The Kingdom of Virgil and the Duchy of Giraldine were badly damaged by the previous Lich Rebellion, with the former still clearing the country of the remaining undead, while the latter lost a full quarter of its revenue due to the destruction of the city of Andorhar.

Then came the war in the Whispering Forest, and the kingdoms of Oberline and Sadarien sent another army to help the elves fight the monsters that rushed out of the secret realm.

And the one that caused the most damage to the entire human race was the expedition that was carried out a few months ago!

Under the call of the Holy See of Light, in order to recapture the Sky City, the twelve human kingdoms almost took out their own elites, and a total of more than a million soldiers entered the Sky City to fight, and most of them were the main forces of each country. But what I didn't expect was that with that loud bang, not only did the city in the sky turn into an expensive firework, but even those troops became burial objects together, and the soldiers who escaped by luck were less than 20,000.

This is a slap in the face for the nations, and perhaps powerful empires like Arnas and Almeria can withstand it, but for those kingdoms with poor national strength, it is a disaster to lose so many main forces at once.

The Kingdom of Oberline was no exception, and the loss of a full 120,000 soldiers was something that had never happened since the last faction war. And to make up for this part of the army gap, it normally takes at least three years or so.

"I know! But as a friend, I have to tell you the news! "The situation in the empire is also very bad, with the failure of the expedition, the eldest prince, who was once unanimously favored by the nobles, is now almost a street rat, and His Royal Highness Rasfil has the support of the nobles, led by Count Presto, which is likely to threaten Prince Andrew's position." I can't find the right person in the Empire. ”

"What about Lord Monas? You should have looked for him, right? As a legendary thief loyal to the royal family, wouldn't that Lord lend you a helping hand? ”

Reginald smiled bitterly: "He must stay with Prince Andrew now, His Majesty Irenas is worried that there is someone behind all this who is secretly plotting a conspiracy. In this case, it is impossible for Monas to leave the imperial capital. ”

"It's terrible!" Roseda didn't expect the situation in the Arnas Empire to be so tense, even to the point that the heir to the throne had to worry about being assassinated, "But what can I do for you, my old friend?" As you can see, the Kingdom is now too busy to take care of itself! It is impossible for the king to take any risks for the sake of this. ”

Reginald, of course, knew about the situation in the Oberline Kingdom, and in fact he didn't expect Roseda to convince King Gilinus Oberline: "The changes in the underworld have worried me, and I can't imagine what the reappearance of the Black Dragon Queen Sinistra will do to the whole world, but the Black Rock Mountain is our most pressing problem right now. I never knew that there was a black dragon army hidden so close to us! ”

The Burning Plains, where Blackstone Mountain is located, is not far from the Arnas Empire and the Oberline Kingdom, and there are only two neutral areas in between, and for Black Dragon, it only takes one day to fly from Blackstone Mountain to the border of the two countries.

"But I'm afraid we can't do anything but increase the army on the border!" Rosenda spread her hands helplessly.

The individual strength of human beings belongs to the middle and lower level in the world of Entagre, not to mention compared with the dragon race, even the lizardmen are stronger than humans, and the reason why humans can become the mainstay of the orderly camp is because of its huge population on the one hand, and on the other hand, it also depends on the excellent growth of human beings.

But even so, when faced with such a terrifying presence as dragons, humans still appear very vulnerable.

Ordinary human beings only have second-order strength after a long period of rigorous training, and after a long period of rigorous training, they may be able to improve to about the fifth order, and some of the more talented people can grow to the sixth order, and even break through the limit to become heroes.

However, a young dragon that has just hatched from a dragon egg has at least third-order strength, and once it reaches adulthood, it also has at least seventh-order strength, and with a little effort, it can become a hero-level existence. Even if it is a dragonman who is regarded as a defective product, he will be at least a sixth-order when he reaches adulthood.

Coupled with all kinds of talents and physical advantages, in general, it takes at least tens of thousands of people to destroy an adult dragon!

Reginald let out a long sigh: "Roseda, my old friend! I've decided to go to Blackstone Mountain myself. I must know what happened to those Black Iron Dwarves, and if that Black Dragon Legion was there to attack the Empire! ”

"Oh my God! Are you crazy? Roseda stood up abruptly, "You've just been promoted to Legend, and I will never agree with you doing this!" ”

Even if he only had the strength of the fifth order, Roseda knew very well what the result would be if he suddenly broke into a group of black dragons with the strength of Reginald, who had just entered the legend. That's simply going to die!

"Listen to me, old friend!" Reginald stretched out his hand to signal Roseda not to get excited, "I'm not that stupid yet!" I'm just going to find out! ”

"Don't forget, you're the Marshal of the Empire!"

"And Berval!"

"Bolvar? Berval Vortagen? That illegitimate son of the Vortagan family? Roseda said in surprise, "He only has hero-level strength!" Is His Majesty Irenas crazy? How could he make such a guy a marshal of the Empire! ”

Reginald smiled bitterly and shook his head: "You should know, old friend! The aristocrats have wanted to remove me from power for a long time! In the past 20 years, I have kept them out of the door, so that they can't enjoy the cake of the army at all! ”

"Presto?"

Reginald nodded.

"That damn woman!" Roseda slammed the table.

"Alright, old friend! I won't change my mind! This is my only chance! As long as I can prove that the Black Dragon Legion is threatening the Empire, His Majesty Irenus will still stand behind me! I will not allow those moths to corrupt the last pure land of the Empire! ”

Rosenda looked at Reginald, and in the face of the man, who was almost sixty years old, he saw the determination to move forward.

"What do you need me to do?"

Although the strength of the two is very different, the relationship is as close as brothers.

"I've heard you have a good relationship with the Brotherhood!" Reginald said.

Unlike the other two Assassin Orders, the Brotherhood operates mainly in the Orderliness Camp, and its members are mainly in the Orderliness Camp, and the members of the Brotherhood have a good sense of justice and act more decently, and in the eyes of those in power in the Orderliness camp, this Assassin Order is a worthy object to work with.

Roseda nodded.

"Can you introduce me to me?"

As the Minister of State of the Kingdom, the Duke of Rosenda is still very capable. Less than two hours later, Reginas met the Brotherhood's Master Assassin, the legendary Assassin Altaïr, in the Duke of Rosselda's study.

"Greetings, Marshal Wendsol!"

Altaïr did not wear dark clothes like most Assassins, but instead wore a white tight-fitting robe, with a white linen hood over his face, revealing only two piercing eyes.

"Alright, Master Altaïr!"

Reginald did not dare to underestimate this Master Assassin, compared to the well-known legendary thieves, this is the real Assassin, not only has the strength of a senior Legend, but also has taught several disciples who are also Legendary, the most famous of which is the legendary Assassin Ezio Leonardo, who is now also a Brotherhood Master Assassin.

"The Duke says there's a good business here!" Altaïr's voice still sounded young, but both Roselda and Reginald knew that the Master Assassin was now over two hundred years old, and as a human, even a legendary, he was already in his infancy.

"Yes, Master Altaïr! A business that is at stake for the entire human race! ”

"Cultists?"

The Brotherhood's course of action is to protect good, and the greatest threat to the entire Order-abiding camp is the Cultists of all kinds, except for the chaotic camp. Since its inception, the Brotherhood has been secretly fighting to the death with these damn guys.

Reginald shook his head.

"The Brotherhood will not intervene in the strife of a certain kingdom!" Not taking sides with any one faction is the foundation of the Brotherhood's survival to this day, especially for a master assassin like Altaïr, who is even more reluctant to become a tool for a certain force to fight against political opponents.

"It's the Black Dragon, Master Altaïr!"

For a moment, Reginald sensed a piercing killing intent from Altaïr, and it seemed that rumors that the Brotherhood and the dragon were not on good terms were not groundless!

"I want to know the details!"

"That's exactly what I'm going to say!"
