Chapter Seventy-Seven: First Encounter with the Red Dragon Queen
For such a level of red dragons, we consciously retreated a few hundred meters, put down their respective weapons, and quietly watched the development of the situation, it is these two red dragons who are so friendly to everyone, then everyone must also think about their kindred, so we who are curious about the relationship within the dragon clan don't want to be too far away, so we quietly observe their actions from a moderate distance.

"Cleoztra!" the Red Dragon Queen shouted her spouse's name as she came up, and then began to murmur in a strange voice, for everyone knew it was the dawn before the storm. "You seem to have forgotten your promise..."
We couldn't help but sweat for Crassus as she called out to him as she was, but none of me were worried about his safety, for I could tell that the queen cared about him.
"I'm sorry, I'm worried they're in danger, so..."
"Obey my orders again! Are you not really afraid that I will punish you?"
Crassus argued, but before he could finish speaking, the Red Dragon Queen rebuked him again, and Rhea on the side couldn't stand it anymore and hurriedly blamed himself for the fault, but at this time, something unexpected happened to me.
"It's not Mistress Cleoztra's fault! Rhea stopped herself from the charge, but before she could finish speaking, the queen's wings pushed her to the ground, and Rhea, who had been wronged, couldn't help but shed tears, and then stood there like a maid waiting for the queen's next punishment.
Perhaps pity came up, and the queen did not continue to roar at her, but was relieved.
"Rhea, I also warned you, don't try to do this. ”
"But the black dragons, they were killed... Cursed, I want to break their seals and return them to their former ways, isn't that right? Rhea carefully verbally challenged her queen, but this undoubtedly provoked the queen's anger.
"I'm telling you once, the black dragon is what they used to be, ferocious, desperate to fulfill their master's mission at all costs, but their master is Deathwing, the bastard who wants to rule in vain," she said as she angrily spread her wings again, as if to attack the she-dragon who was much smaller than her. But under the protection of Crassus, the queen had to give up the punishment that continued to be inflicted on her, and instead became even more angry "There is no curse at all, they have always been like this!"
She really didn't want to do anything to her spouse, but she saw that her beloved was protecting the other female dragon like this, which would surely increase her own anger, and she had to find someone to vent to, so she angrily stretched her neck to a few of the gloating dwarves around me, which made them run away, but fortunately she didn't do anything, but screamed hot air in her nostrils to warn us. "And now that you killed his child, aren't you afraid of Deathwing's revenge?"
The red dragon warned us in a threatening tone, which couldn't help but make many people swallow their saliva secretly. Yes, everyone knows how terrible and cruel that black dragon is, but I don't think so, after all, I believe that he will definitely not make waves for a long time. However, afraid of her majesty now, I can only put on a look of awe like everyone else.
It seemed that this matter could be passed like this, and we gave her full dignity, but there were still some things that I could not predict. Maybe this matter is not just what Rhea said, the Red Dragon Queen does not support her plan, and may have strongly opposed or even warned her not to do so.
"Rhea, you disobeyed my orders, and I think you know what will happen. ”
"I know—" Rhea bowed her head sadly, and Crassus recognized something and immediately stopped his queen.
"No, Queen, you can't do that, you can't let her be punished so severely, and if I say I have violated your orders, then I should also be punished. ”
"Cleoztra, do you think I've forgotten you?"
"This matter has nothing to do with adults...."
"No, punish and punish together, at least this is worthy of my conscience, I can't be treated differently from you because of my status. ”
"You!!" the Red Dragon Queen was even angrier at her spouse's repudiation. In the end, she made an angry decision, "Okay, I'll do it for you." ”
As I watched from the sidelines, I couldn't help but lament the stupidity of Crassus, yes, it was because of his dedication to defending this Rhea, the she-dragon, that he angered the queen. You try to give him a step down, and maybe you can protect her from the situation she is in.
But I'm not Ronin, and it's hard for me to pass on this knowledge to Crassus, and even if I had Ronin's ability, maybe it would be hard for me not to be hijacked by the Queen. Seeing their relationship grow stronger, I wondered if it was time to do something to repay Crassus. This can be regarded as an apology for seeing him almost die with the black dragons just now.
"Honorable Queen, you seem to have mistaken the situation, stealing the black dragon egg was my plan, I just found Rhea to help. ”
"Oh, human Arthas, I've heard about your recent activity. But there are some things that are not possible for a tiny human being like you. The Red Dragon Queen warned me, and grew angry. "Now before you anger me, hurry up and walk away, or you know the consequences!"
"Yes, I know. But I'm more worried about the punishment my friends will receive next, and they're not wrong, Venerable Queen, we all want the black dragon to be as it was for 10,000 years.
"Ten thousand years...", I seemed to be in Alexstaza's mind, and she couldn't help but feel a little sentimental, and her emotions also turned into a little lost. But he quickly reverted to his toughness just now, "Didn't you hear me say just now? There is no curse at all, it is the path that the black dragon himself has chosen, you will know." ”
"Perhaps, but don't forget that Demon Soul, he doesn't just contain the power of your four dragon kings, he has other more powerful factors. ”
"Enough, Arthas, you know that offending me will not end well, and even if you become the king of the alliance, it will be difficult to resist my wrath. ”
"Yes, I told you I know your power, but I don't believe you'll do that. Because you represent life, not the brutal and bloodthirsty of the Black Dragon, it was at my insistence that Crassus and Rhea decided to disobey your orders, knowing that with their faith in you, they would be willing to help me in this grand project, so we decided on this plan. ”
"Arthas, do you think I can't see that you're lying?"
In this regard, I thought of the ability of a person of her level, yes, Ping's own strength can't hide anything in front of her, since that's the case, I can only tell the truth.
"Yes, she brought it up first," I murmured in admitt, and then resumed her tone, "but it's our common wish, and she knows she can accomplish it with our help....." As I said this, my companions came over, and as Ronin and Winlessa greeted her, I immediately changed my tone, and perhaps I could change some of my current tension by leaning the conversation closer to the kindness they had shown to her.
"Queen, think about it, only the red dragon clan of the five-colored dragon clan continues to be strong, it is precisely because there are a few more outstanding characters among you than other dragon clans, what did Crassus do in the past when your entire race was the most dangerous, and he gave up his face to beg the dragon kings one by one, and did not hesitate to betray his most important apprentices and those dwarves who trusted him, and even his own belief in life, because he only had you in his heart. And Rhea, who wants to save other dragons at all costs, is her spirit of love for life like this, this is exactly the fulfillment of her duty as a red dragon. All in between, take back your orders, and Lord Crassus has been badly wounded in the battle just now, and there is no punishment for him. ”
As I spoke, I bowed my knees to Alexstaza, and so did the others. But she didn't care about any of this, and was eager to check on her beloved's injuries.
"My Cleotraz, why didn't you say it earlier, oh...."
Yes, although there is no trace of it under the cover of the Holy Light, it is still difficult to escape the eyes of the Queen.
She was deeply concerned about Crassus's injury, as if she had forgotten what she had just said to be punished, so he began to treat Crassus, but for Crassus, who had just spoken back, he seemed to enjoy the queen's care for him more.
In fact, I just explained that I wanted to warn Alexstaza, Crassus's devotion to her, and Rhea's fraternity to offset the jealousy of the queen just because he protected the opposite sex. But seeing this scene, I seemed to understand that Alex really loved his spouse and her kindred very much, so he didn't mean to punish them at all, and I felt that it was almost a matter of consummation.
Finally, I motioned for Falic and Theron to hand over the black dragon eggs to the queen in front of Rhea, after all, to be on the safe side, the queen would see this, and maybe she would think of their crystallization and really forget what had just happened.
Soon the queen stretched out her wings and accepted the eggs, but to my surprise, when Faric was about to hand them to him, she kept staring at Falik curiously, like a big cat seeing a little mouse. But I don't think she's using him as food (I still think elves are tastier than humans), but something about him, yes.
"Your Majesty, do you know where this sword came from?" I stepped forward and showed my sword.
"Why do you ask, Arthas? Alexstasa no longer snarled, but asked me curiously as an elder. This can't help but make me feel that this queen is still approachable.
"Because, I saw that you were attracted to it, and before that there was a blue dragon similar to me who was also curious about it, but Crassus, as its former owner, was unaware of it, and even valued it far less than a detached scale of yours?
"Yes, he even gave it and some other rarities to them in order to conceal the information he told us about the scale. Winlessa also walked into the Queen, but they were closer to each other in comparison. Even for her language, Alexstasa giggled.
"Of course Cleoztra doesn't know where he came from, but I don't want to tell you, Arthas. ”
"Why. ”
"No, if you don't ask me questions, I think this is the end of the matter, and I will not punish anyone, nor will I hold them accountable for disobeying my orders. ”
"Then I won't ask anything. ”
I nodded a little regretfully, and the queen said goodbye to us and flew south with Crassus.
"Then we have a chance to see you again, we should go back to Cleoztra. ”
Watching them leave, I couldn't help but sigh easily, it seemed that this matter was over, but I seemed to be more interested in the history of this sword, she should know the history of this sword, but why didn't she tell me, I couldn't help but wonder.
