Chapter 148: The Patriarch

Platinum Dragon.

As the imperial capital of the Platinum Empire, the Platinum Dragon Constellation is nestled among the mountains, geographically located in the very center of the entire continent of Aragarcia.

The whole city is in a canyon between dozens of mountain peaks.

And the mountains are the territory of the metal dragons.

However, due to its mountainous location, there are a large number of flying objects here for the convenience of travel.

Not only dragons, dragon eagles and other dragon-descended flying creatures, but also a variety of magical flying machines, such as flying carpets, metal floats, hot air balloons, mechanical wings, etc.

It is also common to see flying on their own spell casting ability.

Every now and then, metal dragons will fly through the sky, and when they do, all flying objects must be avoided as a sign of respect for the true ruler of the empire.

On the ground of the platinum dragon seat, there are tall, ornate buildings everywhere.

It is full of grandeur.

And the most conspicuous is naturally the artificial metal colossus of Nabahamut in the center of the city.

The height and length of the entire colossus are more than 1,000 meters, and they are cast one to one after mixing silver and gold according to the image of the Dragon Emperor, which is extremely heavy and full of the unique visual oppression of the behemoth.

As for Bahamut......

Well, although this is the capital of his empire, the Platinum King does not live here.

Underneath the Colossus is the Empire's most heavily guarded forbidden place, the Black Stone Dragon Abyss, where all the four-colored dragons (blue, white, black, and red) captured by the Empire are locked up inside, using their own bone marrow as raw materials to create dragon blood essence.

That is, the necessities of transforming mortals into dragonborns.

When facing dragons, the Dragonborn will be in an extreme state of suppression, difficult to resist, and even if they surpass the dragon, it will be difficult to exert their strength.

Because of this trait, they are an excellent tool for ruling the Empire.

But......

The raw material for the production of dragon blood essence is the bone marrow fluid of the dragon, and if you extract too much, the dragon will fall into a weakened state. And the empire has less than four hundred metal dragons, which is not enough to create enough dragonborns to manage this vast empire of 300 million people.

So, the empire has its sights on the four-colored dragon.

Anyway, the dragon suppresses the dragonborn, and doesn't look at the dragon's species.

Now that Tiamat has been sealed, what four-colored dragon dares to operate in the Platinum Empire and challenge the majesty of the Platinum King?

It is precisely because the essence of dragon blood is related to the maintenance of the empire that the Black Stone Dragon Yuan has become a forbidden place.

At all times, there are at least three patriarchs on duty in Longyuan to prevent oversight.

Moreover, since the other senators were usually either asleep or focused on their own research, the senators on duty were also responsible for dealing with emergencies that could arise at any time within the empire.

If LOYTEC succeeds in raising the alarm, the message will reach here.

At this moment.

A chain of fiery runes flew into the depths of the Black Stone Dragon Abyss, stopping in front of the Silver Dragon Elder and Kadatomans, flashing red warning lights and accompanied by a piercing alarm.

"Huh!!"

"Huh!!"

Hearing the alarm, the silver dragon slowly opened its eyes.

The huge body of more than two hundred meters gradually stretched out, recovering from a long period of light sleep.

"Hmm...... Is this a red alert? ”

The silver dragon stretched out its huge front paws and gently tapped the rune chain with the tip of its claw, and in an instant, the runes exploded, and then quickly gathered together, forming a projection screen on which the figure of a mage appeared.

He looked extremely anxious.

It's a communication magic where both parties can see each other.

Therefore, upon seeing the silver dragon, the mage immediately saluted and reported, "Excuse me, Patriarch. ”

"Tell me something."

Kadatomans said impatiently.

The days on duty are very dull and boring, and they can neither sleep deeply, nor devote all their energy to study, research, or indulge in pleasure.

After all, although the patriarch has a noble status, in the final analysis, he is still a working boy under the platinum king.

It's just that because of being a dragon, he is more trusted than the human Extreme Realm, and he is treated better.

The mage on the screen didn't dare to delay, and immediately said: "A few minutes ago, all the magic towers in the north of the empire were discovered, and seven cities on the northern border were covered by a blood-red canopy, unable to transmit and cut off communication. ”

"Who did it?"

Hearing that there was something serious, Kadatomans came to the spirit.

If you can go out and fly around, it's much better than being trapped in the imperial capital and idle!

"The Red Canopy was created by one of the Abyssal Lords, jealous of the Maharaja, but based on the information we bought from the Temple of the God of War (the Empire's magic communicator was destroyed, but the Temple of War is still intact), the Eternal House School is behind it."

"Moreover, there was already a metal dragon in this area just now, it was the fourth-order steel dragon Ainpur."

'House of Eternity......

Hearing this, Kadatomans looked solemn, and the enemy did not surprise him.

In recent years, the House of Eternity has been agitating for an all-out war between the Council of the Fallen Stars and the Empire, but the rest of the schools have voted against it because they fear that the war will make it difficult to contain the power of the House of Eternity (the corpses of the strong can make high-level undead make the school much stronger).

It seems that this time the House of Eternity has done it itself! Or in the northernmost part of the empire. ’

Kadatomans thought so.

The Council of the Falling Stars is in the far south of the Empire, while the Seven Cities are in the far north.

No one would have imagined that the war would actually take place in the Seven Cities region, and the empire would be caught off guard.

However, this creates another problem.

"Why didn't our town keepers raise the alarm?"

Facing the patriarch's question, the mage on the screen said solemnly: "Patriarch, the light curtain of the jealous lord will disable teleportation, and the space items will naturally be unusable, and as you know, the rune cards used for warnings are generally contained in the space items. ”

"Hmm, I see!"

Kadatomans shook his head helplessly.

'It seems that in the future, each town keeper must be given two rune cards, one in the space item, and one to carry with him. The Silver Dragon Patriarch made a decision in his heart.

"Mage on duty!"

"The subordinates are here!" The mage on the screen replied immediately.

The Silver Dragon Patriarch ordered: "Pass my order, gather all the Patriarchs and Royal Commanders, and go to the Platinum Princess for a meeting." ”

"Yes!"

The longer you live, the more afraid you are of death.

The Elder Dragon has an immortal life, so he is naturally more afraid of death.

In the heart of Kadatomans, although this kind of thing is not worth alarming the platinum king, in order to reduce the risk, it is better to bring a few more teammates together, so as not to risk himself alone, accidentally fall into the trap of those mages, and plant in the hands of the House of Eternity.

As a Patriarchal Dragon, Kadatomans didn't need to transform the undead to live forever, and he didn't want to lose all the pleasures of flesh and blood.

Moreover, even if the Silver Dragon Patriarch did not report it, after the death of a metal dragon, His Majesty Bahamut would immediately know.

Let's have a meeting to discuss it and leave the responsibility to Princess Platinum.
