The royal capital of Bair, an ancient capital city with a long history.

Looking down from above the city, the city is several times larger than it was eight or nine years ago.

No, to be precise, it should be the addition of several new functional areas and the addition of several new satellite cities.

The most conspicuous is probably the vast area to the north, where there used to be a group of mountains.

The surrounding cliffs have been hollowed out, and the huge palace complexes that are obviously oversized are lined with dragons that often rise and fall, and the city of Baier, which has only been in operation for a few years.

And under the dragon city, there is a new arena of white stone and bricks, where the knights are fighting each other to hone their martial arts, and they are also showing their strength to the dragons.

With the joint efforts of Emperor Baier and the dragon clan bosses, and also under the pressure of the outside world, the dragon clan gradually gave up their past arrogance, and it was not so difficult to accept fighting with the knights.

And now, it is no longer necessary for the cooperation of high-level knights and high-level dragons to give people a feeling of incomprehension, the intervention of a large number of new equipment, so that many young dragons choose to take a knight with the new equipment....... why is this so awkward, but this is the case, many knights are the operators of the equipment in the eyes of the dragon.

Especially three years ago, the new magic guide artillery Scorpion-2 and the medium-sized energy pool were successfully introduced, and the dragon with several heavy magic crystal cannons has become more and more of a new sky overlord.

This kind of dragon has a new name, and even has the possibility of becoming a regular troop - Demon Armor War Dragon.

To the west of the city is the new city of Technicians, Engineers, and Spellcasters.

Obviously, as a superpower with this dragon knight tradition, after discovering the importance of magic technology. But without hesitation, the introduction and development of development.

Massive reserves of resources, wealth, and population. The most important thing is the talent pool brought about by a sufficient educated population base. Let it quickly catch up, and under the leadership of the dragoon emperor Herent, there is more and more of a zhongxing trend.

In fact, it is easy to understand that spending money to buy technology and talent from allies, and then throwing out a decree for scholars to change careers and invest in promising researchers, even if they cannot immediately produce results, can make researchers desire such a research environment and take the initiative to come. Let the emerging talents choose this major out of interest considerations, and in another ten or twenty years, they will wait to reap the results.

However, unlike Orlan, which is also an emerging magic power, there are enough dragons as a reserve of war resources, and they do not invest their energy and funds in the construction of heavy ships and chariots, but instead focus on the development of various small and heavy combat equipment.

Practical combat is the only reason why they choose the field of study.

Wizard Engines, Micro (Medium) Energy Pools, Combat Artillery/Heavy Ballists, and Wizard Armor are all considered nuances and key technologies that other countries are looking at as areas of focus.

I just mentioned the Demon Armor War Dragon. Bring a heavy/medium energy pool as a second mana bank, and equip hundreds of magic armor pieces all over your body. With four to twenty new guns, armed to the teeth, it is not too easy to hit five at the same level.

This secret weapon, which suddenly appeared in the war with the Legion of the Undead a few months ago, has achieved amazing results and attracted countless attention.

Only then did the world discover that Bayer, who originally thought he was old-fashioned and slow, had actually gone very far in the nascent realm of magic.

The Demon Guiding War Dragon, in the Emperor's speech delivered by Baier on New Year's Day this year, is a regular class of troops that can already be produced on a large scale, and now there are three hundred and twelve horsemen in the entire Baier.

Protection, long-lasting combat capabilities, and attack capabilities have all been greatly strengthened by the increase of magic technology.

Magical protection renders ordinary lich magic attacks nullified, and with its powerful flesh and crushing cannon damage, the Magical War Dragon slaughters on the battlefield of the Scourge.

The real combat proved that this combination is powerful and terrifying.

This class, in the evaluation of the little goblin, is legendary, that is to say, the terrifying legion with an average combat power of all members above the legend level is already the strongest wargroup in the world on paper.

Of course, it is not without harm, not to mention the consumption of massive resources and gold coins, it is said that for the sake of these baby bumps, His Majesty Helent has been poor and began to auction his belongings to eat pickles.

On the other hand, most of the armor are young dragons and prime-age dragons, and the real killer features of ancient dragons and ancient dragons are still themselves, and in terms of high-end combat power, magic guidance technology can't help.

Moreover, with so much heavy equipment draped over the body, even with the help of the floating engine, the agility of this dragon is not worth expecting, and if the engine is turned off, or if the floating engine fails....... they will fall.

"No, we have it in the operation manual, in this case, just disassemble and throw away all the equipment. His Majesty Helent once said, 'When equipment is gone, it can be rebuilt, and when dragons and men die, they are gone'. ”

As soon as he entered Baier's airspace, two of the latest magic dragon warlords followed, and they also brought the accompanying diplomats, obviously they had already received the news.

This man named Steele. Zhou's middle-aged diplomat, who had been to Languo before, had met with me, and could send him to pick me up, and Helent was also considerate.

And this kind of practice of giving priority to equipment and personnel when there is a malfunction, undoubtedly proves that Bayer's wealth is deep from one side.

The cost of that set of dragon armor, if you give Lan Meng, is enough to build two destroyers.

Perhaps, this is the difference between the national strength of large countries and small countries, the same technology in small countries, can only lead for a short time to earn a little difference, and even some advanced technology can not be built, can not make finished products, and large countries in the installation, will think about selling some old goods and leftovers.

The engines of the Advance passenger ship had not yet been repaired, we did not have the capital to soar among the clouds, and the height of the floatship could clearly see the ground, and the dragons on each side and the knights on it still looked at us with curiosity from time to time.

“…… It seems, these dragon knights are not dragonborn? ”

I asked casually, but Steele broke out in a cold sweat, in a sense, this should be spying on the military.

He hesitated, not knowing if he could answer, but someone could easily make a choice.

"Well, the holy war has come to this point, and those old antiques have also seen the situation clearly, and before considering the self-esteem of the dragon clan, it is most important to find a way to maintain the continuity and status of the race."

Accompanied by a heavy voice came a middle-aged man wearing a heavy blue cloak and a crown in heavy armor.

He walked over and gave me an overly enthusiastic hug, but there was a knee around me.

"Long time no see, Your Highness Roland, welcome to Bayer again, and I hope you bring me good news this time."

Helent. Milan, the Grand Duke of Dragoons in the past, the Dragoon Emperor now.

He had grown a little taller than he had been nine years ago, and his beard and makeup had probably made him look a little more mature, but from my eyes, his physical age seemed to be getting younger.

The terrifying power contained in this body, close my eyes, there is only a powerful dragon here in my senses, it seems that Helent is now more like a dragon than a man.

This is also expected, after all, many of the dragons' secret methods are to increase the concentration of bloodlines, and Helent has no reason to refuse power.

Compared with the shy teenager in the past, Helent's expression is a little exaggerated.

"Oh, no, you've brought me good news, a week ago, as a member of the human race, you defeated the Lord God of Chaos and achieved immortal honor. Come, let us celebrate this great victory for the heroes of humanity. ”

After talking to himself, His Majesty the Emperor of Baier took the lead in applauding excitedly, and the surrounding entourage and civilians naturally made a sound.

For a moment, the applause was thunderous, and the cheers were continuous, and the drummers were almost gone.

Nothing to do, either a traitor or a thief, this sudden excessive enthusiasm, only made me feel very different and goosebumps.

"Propaganda, propaganda."

A whisper, then he took my hand and waved to the people below.

Only then did I realize that the Advance had entered the port, and the welcoming crowd was crowded below, vaguely past the predecessors, not far away, and the red slogan carried by the little dragon.

"Warmly celebrate the eighth anniversary of the friendship between the Lanmeng and the Bayer Empire."

"Welcome His Royal Highness Roland, the leader of the Lanmeng, to come and guide the work."

"Warmly celebrate the return of His Royal Highness Roland to exorcise demons."

The welcoming crowd, flowers, salutes, and military bands were all there, and the only thing that was not decent was probably the appearance of the Advance that was almost crippled, but it was escorted by four magic dragons, but it looked more domineering and calm, like a warrior returning from the battlefield.

I was pulled by Helent and waved my hand, but the cheers below exploded violently, even rushing into the sky.

What makes people feel is that this fit is not an intentional arrangement, and those cheers are too real.

In this moment, many thoughts flashed through my mind, and my face froze, and then, in an instant, I realized that something was wrong, and immediately changed to the standard smile of the paladin, and waved my hand downward.

Then....... I was buried by the welcoming crowd.

In the midst of the chaos, I vaguely heard some words that people cared about, such as "reinforcements" and "front line", and then I became more and more aware of it.

Thirty minutes later, we finally got out of the enthusiastic crowd, and before we could have a cup of tea, I asked the first question.

"Helent, you want me to come as a political propaganda to boost morale? Is Beyer's situation so bad?

Hearing this, Helent's stiff smile turned into a bitter smile.

He frowned and gently massaged his eyebrows, which he intended to use to relax.

"Sure enough, I can't hide it from you, yes, the situation is very bad. There was a big mess at the front, we lost, we lost badly. The undead emperors who are serious are ten times more difficult to deal with than expected! (To be continued.) )
