Chapter 56: The Fairy Dragon
If the end of "love" is "hate", then the extreme of "guarding" means "destroying".
Under the protection of the Golden Dragon Clan, the Rokar Empire, which had stood for four thousand years, was wailing and screaming in the anger of the Golden Dragon Clan at this time. Even in the sky, more than a hundred kilometers away from Alexandria, you can still see the golden pillar of fire rising into the sky.
"It seems that the attack of the Golden Dragon Clan has begun. Owen knew that Julian at this time was definitely not in the mood to continue to think calmly.
"Please tell me, this is not true, the Golden Dragon Clan will not destroy the Rokar Empire. Even though he knew it was a lie, Julian still wanted to hear from Owen what he wanted.
"Nope. Owen, who was driving the griffin in front, shook his head and regretfully rejected his friend, "It's cruel, but if what Queen Isabel said about the 'fairy dragon' is true, this kind of tragedy will happen." ”
"Fairy Dragon?" Julian clenched his fists, "Ipeya, how many secrets are you still hiding?"
Just as the Central Church never talks about the Truth Society, which they separate from within, the dragons are secretive about the fairy dragons, who are also part of them.
"If you have been to the underground dragon cemetery, you should know that in addition to our golden dragon clan, silver dragon clan, green dragon clan, red dragon clan, black dragon clan, blue dragon clan, and sea dragon clan, there is also an eighth dragon clan. Isabel said indifferently, "It is not correct to say that the fairy dragon clan is the eighth dragon clan, the fairy dragon is the dragon clan that was originally born in the three continents of Olopa, and they should be called the 'first dragon clan'." ”
Owen and Julian listened calmly, and as the doubts in their minds grew, they had to be more patient.
"All of our dragon ancestors did not come from this world. When the ancestors of our other seven dragons came to this Olopa world, the fairy dragons had been living here for over a thousand years and had established a healthy community and society. Speaking of this, Isabel sighed, "Even if you don't want to admit it, the truth can't be changed." If it weren't for the teachings of the fairy dragon clan, whether it was our golden dragon clan, or other dragon clans such as the black dragon clan and the silver dragon clan, they would all be just relatively large monsters until now. It was the fairy dragons who taught us knowledge, wisdom, magic, the ability to think and speak, setting us apart from other magical beasts that only survive on instinct. However, it was precisely because of the sun-destroying catastrophe caused by the fairy dragon that almost all the dragons and the world of Olopa were destroyed......"
Fairy dragons lived in an era where human beings would have been civilized, and they would have been called purple dragons or phantom dragons.
Because this purple, beautiful and elegant dragon is relatively small in size compared to other dragons, and its strength is relatively weak, but the fairy dragon has an advantage that other dragons cannot match, that is, extremely high IQ, as well as unimaginably powerful mental control and illusion abilities. Because of this ability, the fairy dragon creates and provokes conflicts between other dragons, manipulating the other seven dragons to kill each other, which is the origin of the epic "dragon war".
The melee between dragons tore the skies, shook the earth, and churned the oceans, and the world of Olopa was devastated, and other races, including humans, spirits, dwarves, and orcs, were almost dragged into the abyss of destruction.
Although in the middle of the war, the leaders of the other dragon clans suddenly discovered that it was the fairy dragon who was behind all this, so the seven dragon clans joined forces to attack the fairy dragon clan. Under the siege of the Seven Dragons, the Fairy Dragons were finally wiped out, but the extermination of the Fairy Dragons did not end the war. Because the conflict between the dragons created by the fairy dragon has been rooted in the bottom of the heart, it has become a seed of hatred and quickly sprouts.
It would be biased to attribute the "Dragon War" more than 8,000 years ago to the hegemony between the major dragons within the dragons, because the hatred of the fairy dragon did not dissipate due to the destruction of the caster's body, not only for the Golden Dragon, but also for the other six dragons. If this hatred is not vented to the outside world, it will inevitably lead to destruction within the race.
The reason why the "Dragon War" lasted for several years after the Fairy Dragon exterminated the Fairy Dragon was that the false name of the Dragon Overlord was only an accessory, and more importantly, it was necessary to eliminate all the effects caused by the Fairy Dragon by means of energy catharsis.
In the end, the war ended with the victory of the Golden Dragons with the help of humans. The Golden Dragon Clan, who has obtained the position of overlord, naturally also has the right to clean up the battlefield. The Golden Dragon Clan gathered all the corpses of the fairy dragons that died in the battle and found a relatively safe place to place them together. Even the fairy dragon, which has been dead for many years, still has a powerful magic on its remains that is strong enough for the minds of weak creatures, which is why the Golden Dragon Clan has set up the fairy dragon's graveyard in the underground near the Golden Dragon Sanctuary, which has been guarding the gradually decomposing corpses for thousands of years to prevent the leakage of their residual magical power.
"Since the Fairy Dragons are such a wise race, why did they do such an unwise thing to start the 'Dragon War', what good will it do to the Fairy Dragons?" Julian finally couldn't contain his curiosity.
Isabel shook her head, stared at Julian, and remained silent. Judging from her expression, her shaking her head did not mean that she didn't know, but that she didn't want to say.
"I think it has something to do with the primordial dragon 'Donatmedi'. Owen said suddenly.
"As a human, how did you know that name?" Isabel looked at Owen with some surprise.
"It was a coincidence. Your Highness Isabel, you don't want to know. Everyone has their own secrets, and Owen chose to keep his mouth shut.
In the final battle with the demon Satan Mephistopheles that day, Owen was occupied by Mephistopheles's soul, or when he locked Mephistopheles in his body, Owen faintly felt that Satan, the demon who ruled over a quarter of the demon realm, had a great obsession with the mysterious creature that only existed in legends but had never been seen by anyone, demons or other races.
"It doesn't matter if you say it or not. I'm just telling you that although the fairy dragon has been wiped out, there are still a small number of fish that have slipped through the net. For thousands of years, we Golden Dragons have been hunting down these fish that slipped through the net. It's just that what we never imagined is that your human empress, as a descendant of Alexander, who assisted our Golden Dragon Clan to win the war, actually secretly concluded a contract with the Fairy Dragon, which is an insult to Alexander, a betrayal of our Golden Dragon Clan, and absolutely unforgivable!"
When she said this, Isabel's expression was very excited. It can be seen that the Golden Dragon Clan has always been full of unspeakable fear of the Fairy Dragon Clan, which has long been destroyed.
"So, you made a hasty decision to destroy Alexandria, and even the entire Rocard Empire?" Julian also became agitated, "It's not fair! It's enough to target Ipeia alone, why drag thousands of innocent people to pay for it?"
"This is not my decision, but the final decision made by the three elders. Every race has extremists, and so do we, the Golden Dragons. The three elders and their supporters believe that the human empire established by Alexander's descendants has existed under the protection of our Golden Dragon Clan for 4,000 years, and it can be regarded as repaying Alexander's kindness to the Golden Dragon Clan back then. Moreover, what humans have done in the last few hundred years has made many golden dragons feel very dissatisfied. Rather than let you humans be used by the fairy dragon, it is better to destroy the human race completely. ”
"You have destroyed the human race, and if there is another war with other dragons, the Golden Dragons who do not have a dragon contractor will be in danger of being isolated. Owen spoke out about the consequences of doing so.
Isabel showed a sneer: "What you can think of, can't the Elder Sect guys think of it? They don't want to kill all the human beings, but they will leave about 5% to 10% of the human elite to exist as the indentured slaves of our Golden Dragon Clan." I think if that time comes, you two will be eligible for that as well. ”
"Thank you for your love. But if that time comes, I will be the first human to stand up against your Golden Dragons. Julian said categorically.
"Very nice looks. Isabel approving, "I just don't know if you're capable of making it as good as your mouth." I am firmly opposed to this resolution of the Elders, but I am no longer the empress of the Golden Dragon Clan, and I no longer have the power to veto. However, I can argue with the elders and buy you a maximum of half a month. ”
Half a month passed quickly, and tragedy still inevitably happened.
The scorching heat of the flames, the roar of the dragon, the wails of the humans, and the collapse of the city became clearer and clearer as the distance approached.
However, as he approached the purgatory of destruction, Julian, who was originally anxious, was as calm as a mirror in his heart at this time.
"Owen, don't you think there's something wrong?" Julian thought back to something he hadn't been able to think about quietly.
"What?"
"Although Ipeiya and I haven't been together for long, I know that she is a scheming woman, how could she not have expected the upcoming revenge and killing of the Golden Dragon Clan?"
"Ha, Julian, you've finally thought of it. Even putting aside Ipeia, if the fairy dragons beside her were as cunning and difficult as Isabel said, they would definitely calculate what the Golden Dragons wanted to do. ”
"Owen, I shuddered. There must be something strange in this. ”
"Anyway, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, so let's act when we see the opportunity. ”
"Hmm. ”
The two friends fell silent, and flew silently on the griffin all the way to the burning city.
