Chapter 9: Once Upon a Time on the Mainland

Levi was dying, no, he was dying, to be exact. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Today was the thirty-eighth day he had spent in the town of Jotun, and he had been living here for more than a month, and the wound on his shoulder had recovered well with the help of herbs from Rabshid, and was already half healed.

At this time, Levi stuck out his tongue and lay on the ground like a dead dog, and the kitten with the new name "Xiao Ming" sat on the side, looking at his owner with the same curiosity as ever.

After Levi returned to Andrew's house that day, he naturally couldn't avoid a reprimand from Ronnie, obviously he was injured and didn't come back all night, Levi could only find an excuse to reluctantly fool around, but fortunately, Ronnie had no intention of pursuing it.

The glasses were still in his pocket, and Levi didn't give them to Ronnie, who was going to give them to Lady Ronnie as a parting gift on the day he was gone, as a reward for her care these days.

And for the kitten Xiao Ming Andrew family that Levi picked up, the people didn't say anything, Verus also took the initiative to take on the task of feeding Xiao Ming, as for why he gave it such a name, Livi's statement is that Xiao Ming has a Ming character in it, symbolizing "tomorrow" and tomorrow is always full of hope, so the name Xiao Ming was hastily given.

I have to say that Xiao Ming is really very spiritual, Levi called it a few times and remembered its name, and once someone called Xiao Ming in the future, it would raise its head as soon as possible.

Back in the current scene, Levi was still lying on the ground gasping for air, while next to him, Verus looked at him with disdain.

"Weak, too weak!" several of the children standing behind Verus nodded in agreement, and Brunstein sneered, "Rivigo, I don't think you're even as good as Irica."

A girl with two pigtails on her head suddenly waved her hand in panic, "What's the matter, Livigo just lacks exercise, although it seems to be really weak...".

Well, Levi admits that his body is weak, but no one dares to laugh at him when he was in the Kaos Empire, at least the Imperial knights who are called guards and actually spy on Levi still have a lot of respect for him on the surface, but he still has the name of a royal advisor on his head.

The innate condition for becoming an alchemist is that he must be insulated from mana, which cuts off the possibility of Levi becoming a mage, but knight, he can still consider it!

Because knights rely on their own control of the body, strength, speed, endurance, and a lot of combat skills, they don't need mana, they just need a little talent and long-term training.

However, Levi probably doesn't even have this talent, and after a few days, he will soon be tired and lie on the ground as soon as he exercises, and compared to his accurate judgment when making objects and his ability to maintain concentration for a long time, he is obviously not suitable for dealing with frontal combat.

Legend has it that those alchemists who hold swords in one hand and alchemy in the other, and have extraordinary bearing, are really just "legends" for Levi.

"The sword I swung out actually only had two units of energy...", weakly putting down the hand holding the sword, Levi muttered to himself.

The unit energy system is a system developed by Levi himself, based on the fireball technique thrown by the mage apprentices, and set it as a unit of energy, and it is formed all the way up.

According to his observations, every swing of the sword by Verus, a stupid big man, has at least eight to ten units of energy attack power, and if you look at himself, it is only up to the upper limit of two units of energy, which Livi endures, and the most unacceptable thing for him is that the sword swung by the little girl named Erica also has an attack power of three units of energy!

Maybe he's just a scholar, and he's not good at fighting, as long as he can learn some swordsmanship for self-defense.

In the past month or so of life, not only has Levi's relationship with Andrew's family improved, but some residents of the town have gradually accepted him, especially these children who call him "Rivigo", as soon as they see him, they will come to listen to him tell some biographical stories that circulate on the mainland.

Several of their exercise places were in the mountain stream of a large mountain in the direction of Cribi City in the town of Jotun, and seeing that Levi had finished training for the day, Varus found a shady place and asked everyone to gather around, and after the daily training was over, it was time for Rivey to tell stories.

"Rivigo, I'm going to listen to the story of the dragon told the day before yesterday, does Dragon Nest really exist?" Brunstein preemptively exclaimed.

"I don't want to listen to the dragon, I'm going to listen to the story of the knight and the princess, did the princess marry the knight?" said Irica with a snort.

"Ahem, Irica, let's listen to the dragon's story today," Verus, who was obviously more inclined to Brunstein's side, scratched his head and smiled.

"I've been listening to the dragon's story for two days, and I'm going to tell my dad that you're bullying me!" Elica's father is the owner of the largest inn in town, and his position in the town of Jodun can be described as very important, and he is obedient to Elika's words, and he almost didn't hurt the little girl.

"Erica, I'm almost done with the story of the dragon, let's tell the story of the dragon today, and I'll tell you the story of the knight and the princess tomorrow, okay?" Levi pinched Xiao Ming and threw it to Erica without conscience, and Irica who played with Xiao Ming finally agreed.

"Meow!" Ignoring Ming's protests, Levi said, "Then let's pick up where we left off last time, I told you about Dragon Nest yesterday, right?"

"Uh-huh, where the hell is the Dragon's Nest? Are there any dragons in there?" asked Verus, sitting cross-legged on the ground.

"It's really hard to say whether there are dragons now, at least in the records, the dragons should be extinct."

There are some things that Levi chooses to hide, and the extinction of the dragons is also the fuse that started the "cataclysm".

"Dragons are the people with the highest physical strength and spell use ability on this continent, and the scorching dragon breath from their mouths can easily burn down human cities, and the roar of the ice dragon freezes the earth for thousands of miles, freezing all living things in the ice of death, and the thunder summoned by the thunder dragon bombards down and annihilates all things."

"At that time, the Terran countries all united and formed a coalition against the Dragons, and both sides suffered heavy casualties, but compared to the Dragons, the advantages of the Terrans gradually emerged."

"What's the advantage?" asked Brunstein, impatiently.

"The individual strength of the dragon clan is very strong, but their high-quality genes are very difficult to pass on, in other words, the probability of the dragon clan giving birth to offspring is too low."

“... Rivego, what do you mean by genes?" Rive, who was about to continue, paused and said to Brunstein, "You won't understand this, you just need to remember that dragons rarely have children."

"Oh well"

"Go ahead," Verus said.

"As far as the ending is concerned, the dragons were defeated, their strength was indeed strong, but the war potential of the dragons was far inferior to the Terrans at that time, and the dragons who fell into a protracted war could not continue, more and more dragons died at the hands of the Terrans, and the dragons who faced extinction finally chose to retreat to the birthplace of the dragons - Dragon Valley."

In this passage, Levi revealed the real reason for the defeat of the dragon clan - war potential, yes, the human race is completely unable to compete with the dragon race individually, in fact, let alone compete, people in front of the dragon, even if it is an army of tens of thousands of people, in the eyes of the dragon clan is just an interesting toy, but the dragon clan loses, they are not fighting a battle, but a war.

The dragons all think that the war is just a large-scale battle in which the whole race participates, and in the face of the strong war potential that suddenly broke out of the human race, they were caught off guard, and all the resources available to the human race began to move closer to the war, and their purpose was very clear, that is, to fight this war with the dragon clan, for which they could pay anything, everything could be sacrificed, and the war was above everything at that time!

When the Terrans set fire to the dragons' territory, the enraged dragons roared and prepared to retaliate against the Terrans, but they didn't know that it was just a trap laid by the Terrans to lure them out.

A large number of resources have created a large number of mages, they have enough mana, tons of steel forged into the knights' swords and shields and all the weapons that can kill the dragons, they are determined, and the dragons who have been ambushed by humans are blinded, endless spells shoot at them, and the knights are fearless to charge, this is the cruel war, and it can no longer be defined by combat.

The dragon fell to the ground headlong, the blood of the human race and the dragon clan intertwined and flowed on the earth to form a river, the dragons were shocked to find that the insects that were weak in their eyes could not be killed, obviously one moment their dragon breath burned thousands of humans, but the next moment, on the other side of the mountain, another army appeared and attacked them.

"The dragons are no longer able to fight, they underestimated the war, and the Terrans at that time forced the dragons to retreat while paying heavy casualties, and even surrounded the dragon's valley at all costs"

"And after that?" Verus' heart throbbed, pumping blood all over his body, and his breathing became heavier.

"Ahem, after that the dragons are finished, the Terrans have attacked the Valley of the Dragons and killed all the dragons," Levi replied with a sudden skipped the point.

As for what finally crushed the dragons, Levi didn't say it, he buried it in his heart and didn't tell anyone.

"Is there anything you haven't said that Dragon Nest has been captured so easily?" Varus grumbled dissatisfied with Rivi's attitude.

"Oh, the dead and wounded of the dragons at that time, of course, it is impossible to defeat the Terran coalition," Livi said with a dry laugh.

"Rivigo, look at Xiao Ming!" said Irica, who was not paying attention to the story at all, as she held up Xiao Ming.

"Meow~"

At this time, Xiao Ming licked the hair on his body obediently, and Irica made a wreath for Xiao Ming with a small white flower and put it on his tail, but Xiao Ming also happened to be a female cat, and it also matched.

"Not bad, it's good-looking" Levi pinched Xiao Ming's face, and Xiao Ming also stuck out his tongue and licked Levi's fingers.

"Well, if you don't want to say it, just forget it, wait, I'm going to pick up my sister today!" Suddenly, Verus slapped his head and bounced on the spot.

"Nohi, she's coming back today?" asked Levi, looking at Verus.

"Yes, she's done working over there in Kribi City, and when she comes back today, do you want to come with me?"

"No, I don't dare to talk to your sister, so as not to provoke her to be beaten" Levi waved his hand, he was still here to play with the two children to tease Xiao Ming.

Verus, who is not yet a knight, can have ten units of energy attack power, and if it is Noshi's attack, Rivi estimates that he will have hundreds of units of energy.

"You better go with me, my sister specially explained that she wanted you to go over"

What's the matter? Noshi wants to see me? I don't think I messed with her...

Verus didn't care about Rivi's opinion, he raised his hand and caught Rivi under his ribs and walked out of the mountain stream.
