Chapter 194: Valentina's Promise
Valentina spoke Roland's inner thoughts, and then fell into a long period of thought, without saying a word. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info
Roland quietly looked at the "mother of agriculture in the Far East", waiting for her reply, his eyes full of anticipation.
Valentina finally raised her head, her beautiful face was extremely serious: "Roland, on behalf of all the members of the 'Harvest Ring', I can make a promise to you: if one day you and your father dare to openly raise an army against the Ashanian Empire and fight for the freedom of the people of the Far East, all the Green Druids will participate in this sacred war, do everything we can to ensure the supply of military rations, and support your father and son as the new masters of the Fort of Atonement." β
Roland couldn't help but clench her hand excitedly: "Lady Valentina, please forgive me for not being able to express my gratitude in words, my strength is insignificant, but as long as you say a word, I am willing to go to the soup for you!" β
Valentina smiled lightly: "I will remember your promise, now it's time to say goodbye, I have one more thing to tell you before parting." β
"Tell me."
"Many years ago, while traveling on the continent of Atlas, I obtained a parchment scroll by chance, and wrote a poem in praise of the 'platinum dragon god' Bahamut in the words of an ancient dragon." "At first, I thought it was just an ancient book, but after reading through the Psalms, I realized that there was a big secret hidden in it, about Bahamut and his dragonborn paladins. β
Roland was puzzled and asked her, "I'm not a dragonborn, nor am I a believer in Bahamut, what does this have to do with me?" β
Valentina turned to look at him with a smile, "Does it really have nothing to do with you?" Isn't there a 'dragon toucher' standing in front of me at this moment? β
Roland immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly changed his words: "I'm really sorry, I forgot that there is such a thing." β
"Whether it's an innate dragon blood creature or an acquired dragon toucher, you can be regarded as a dragon descendant after all, although the red dragon aura on your body is too exciting for me...... However, that does not affect your position and character, so I think you may be more qualified than I am to accept Bahamut's legacy. β
The more Roland listened, the more frightened he became: "Dear Valentina, you have confused me, what the hell is going on......"
The legendary Grand Druid sighed, raised his hand and patted him lightly on the chest, and said softly, "Silly boy, have you forgotten where your dragon veins came from?" Stop deceiving yourself, what you have done in the Settlement Region has already attracted the attention of at least three legendary powerhouses, not including me. β
Roland's throat was dry, and he asked her tentatively, "You mean that the half-purgatory five-colored ancient dragon Mars Bloodscale Fury already knows...... Did I kill Nero, Agatha and Lorenzo? β
"Not only the old dragon knows, but AndrΓ© of Lighthouse Mountain's 'red robe' and Prince Vlad, the half-vampire lord of Parnia, also know you through different ways, and you still think that you are just a fledgling little person?"
Roland was lost in thought when he heard this.
A careful analysis of the secrets revealed by Valentina is not surprising. Nero was a high-ranking member of the Dragon's Eye, and was ordered by Mars to go to the Settlement Territory to find the ancient artifact, and finally teleported the "Blood Claw" back to the Dragon Fortress, which Mars must have known.
Nikita is Andrei's daughter, Veronica was born in Parnia, and of course they have a reason to report what happened to them in the settlement area to the top of the family, and it is reasonable to alarm the two legends, but it is Valentina who knows about these things from some means.
Seeing that he was silent, Valentina guessed what he was worried about, and comforted him softly: "The old dragon went to the Star Boundary, planning to use the 'Blood Claw' to retrieve the 'Lin Jia Tian' that had been missing for many years, and I and my two friends also made an appointment to go to the Star Boundary...... I plan to do something to stop the old dragon's ambitions, and set off tomorrow, no matter whether our trip succeeds or fails, the old dragon will not be able to find you trouble, you can rest assured that you will go north. β
Roland found out that Valentina deliberately did not mention Mars's name, probably for fear of triggering the prophecy spell and arousing the other party's vigilance, so he didn't say much, but just said to her: "Take care." β
Valentina smiled and continued the topic just now: "You have deeply offended those villains by defeating the forces of the 'Dragon's Eye' in the subsidence region, and it is inevitable that you will have to clash with them in the future. The Dragon Age has been buried in the dust of history, but the heirs of Tiamat are not willing to withdraw from the stage of history, the metal dragons are declining day by day, and even the secret method of transforming the dragonborn has been lost, if the descendants of the evil dragons make a comeback in the future, this time it is no longer the metal dragons that can stand up to stop them, but you humans. β
You humans? Roland's heart moved, and he caught a subtle hint in Vallentina's words.
Valentina continued: "In ancient times, every dragonborn warrior of Bahamut did not hesitate to defend justice with his life, and it is conceivable that most of the people who met this condition were holy warriors, and these dragonborn holy warriors, in order to fight evil more effectively, created a sacred ritual to voluntarily release the special celestial mounts from their labor, so that the horses could be freed, and in exchange for a powerful martial art, which was the perfect fusion of charging and evil slashing, the power was so great that the evil dragons were terrified, and now the scroll recording this sacred ritual is in my hands." I can perform a ritual for you, so are you willing to give up the Celestial Mount? β
"I do!" Roland agreed without hesitation.
He knew very well what Valentina's so-called "ritual" meant, it was an unattainable skill for any paladin!
Some people may think that the Celestial War Horse is also very important, and if the Celestial Realm Horse is lost for a martial art, this deal may not be worth it.
However, for Roland, this was not a problem at all. Because he is not an ordinary paladin, without the "Celestial Horse", he can still summon the "Purgatory Pony" and charge on horseback.
Valentina obviously didn't understand his calculations, and patiently reminded: "You'd better think about it before making a decision, at least you should understand what the difference between the Dragonborn Holy Warriors and ordinary Holy Warriors is, and why they are willing to give up their mounts." β
Roland couldn't help laughing: "Thank you for reminding me, I know very well that the dragonborn holy warrior has dragon wings, since he can fly, the war horse is not so important, ordinary holy warriors can't fly freely, if they break away from the war horse and charge on the ground, the combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced." β
"It seems that you have thought about the gains and losses very clearly, so I won't be verbose." Valentina took out a yellowed scroll from the dimensional pouch and unfolded it to recite the dragon mantra written on the scroll.
Roland summoned the Celestial Horse and waited on the sidelines, feeling a little nervous.
