Chapter 549: A Hasty Response

This valley is a hidden place in the Karlsmenian Empire that has been crossed off the map, mainly because the empire has built an arsenal here for the production of secret weapons, and the main reason for the construction of this valley is that it is a high-quality and easily minable iron mine, and there is a large city a few kilometers away that can provide ample supplies. The mined iron ore can be refined locally into high-quality steel for use in the arsenal.

After the arrival of the half-elf female mage Tenaya, the valley, which was originally heavily guarded, has once again increased its alert level, because now the weapons produced here are no longer common on the continent, but some powerful weapons handed down from ancient times, as long as they can be successfully manufactured and incorporated into the army of the Karlsemon Empire, then the entire empire will be possible to reproduce the grand occasion of the former overlord Garselik dominating the entire continent.

It's just that today, the arsenal is busy, and the nearby garrisons have received urgent orders, and all of them have been stationed in the valley to start preparing for defensive battles, as the strongest power in the eastern part of the continent, even in some battles with the neighboring Kingdom of Kreses, the Imperial Army has never been so nervous. It's just that today's enemy is not trivial, although there is only one enemy, but it is a dragon that has been circulating only in mythology and poetry since hundreds of years ago!!

"Black Dragon┉┉That's right, this is indeed a black dragon, and it's a black dragon that has already stepped into the old age!!Oh my God!!!" In the arsenal, a mage observed the dragon flying quickly through the crystal ball, and said in surprise.

The dragon has been recorded in secular literature, the first born from the dragon egg is a young dragon, and then it will grow into a young dragon for a period of time, youth, adulthood, old age, ancient, primeval, ancient and other stages, the so-called old age does not mean that the dragon is old and the physical fitness begins to decline, old age is a dragon in the step' At the peak of the power of this new level of Ancient, according to the literature, if the dragon can step into this stage and step into the ancient level, its strength and longevity will further increase and become a terrifying existence that can destroy a country on its own.

On the other hand, if the dragon fails to make it to the ancient level. They will gradually age in the years to come, until they die. Now, by comparing the records in the literature, some knowledgeable mages can be sure that this dragon has reached old age, and is crossing to the ancient level, although it has not yet entered this level, its strength has far surpassed that of the same level of people.

The current commander of the Imperial garrison and several staff officers are also ugly at the moment, they have commanded thousands of troops on the battlefield in the war with the Kingdom of Kreses, but this time the enemy is not the same human. The other side is a dragon so powerful that it can sweep through an entire army, a living biological weapon that cannot be countered by ordinary military tactics as it used to be.

"Are all the magic crystal cannons ready?" asked Tenaya, who had recovered a little from her injuries, still a little weak.

"Thirty doors have been prepared, twenty of which have already been arranged. ”

The staff officer on the side immediately replied, although Tennaya is a popular person in front of His Royal Highness the Prince in the Karlsmen Empire, but she is not a general and does not know military command, Tenaya should generally not be qualified to participate in the scheduling of battles, but from the current situation, it seems that this female mage can escape under the attack of the black dragon, and it seems that she is also very familiar with the many characteristics of the black dragon, and in this special case, the garrison commander can only turn to Tenaya for help, hoping that she can assist the army to deal with this black dragon.

The Magic Crystal Cannon is an extremely expensive weapon for the average small country. For example, the economically impoverished Kingdom of Saxony has at most a dozen magic crystal cannons even if the whole country is combined, most of which are still on the border of the Belica Fortress and the king have been defended, and it can be seen that the strength of the Karlssermen Empire is indeed extraordinarily strong, in fact, there are more magic crystal cannons in the arsenal, but the black dragon's attack speed is too fast, almost crushing the increased troops heading to the mansion all the way, and these newly created magic crystal cannons are too late to equip the magic crystal stones and transport them to the launch pad。

Tenaya nodded, and used the staff as a crutch to support herself to her feet, the recovered undead dragon was badly damaged, and the power of the black dragon was too strong. The entire undead dragon had a broken front paw and a half = head, and even a wing was forcibly broken from the middle. The undead dragon that is currently repairing itself in the soul plane will not be able to summon it for a short time. His own magic power was also consumed, and he was injured again, and now the only thing he could rely on was the army of the Karlsmen Empire to deal with the black dragon. And it's not just one, there's another one hiding in the shadows, ready to move.

To be honest, it was too dangerous here, even if all the garrisons outside the valley arrived, and the entire legion had reached the size of seven thousand, but Tenaya still didn't feel safe.

"Elsa, come here! I said you weren't to leave my sight. ”

The elf girl resignedly stood in front of Tenaya, not daring to say anything. Judging from what had just happened, Aisha already knew that those terrible dragons were supposed to come to capture her, and Tenaya, as her master, was completely involved in an unwarranted disaster. When she arrived at the safe zone temporarily, Elsa became even more frightened when she saw that Tena was not lightly injured, and God knows how Tena would punish herself after this matter was over.

Grab the girl's hand. Tenaya pulled Aisha into her arms, and looking at the girl's frightened look, Tenaya asked softly again with doubts: "Hurry up Aisha, why did the black dragon come to take you away?"

"I really don't know, master! I swear, I really don't know. ”

In the face of Tenaya's repeated questions, Aisha's voice trembled slightly, and she looked as pitiful as a helpless kitten.

Tennaya looked into Elsa's eyes, and those beautiful eyes seemed to be tempted by the devil and asked again, "Answer me Aisha, why are those black dragons looking for you?"

Aisha's frightened expression disappeared at once, and she replied mechanically as if she had lost her soul, "I don't know┉┉"

"Really!"

After letting go of Elsa, Tennaya didn't ask any questions, she had already used the charm magic just now, and in theory, Elsa would answer truthfully no matter what question she had, but it seemed that Aisha was attacked by the black dragon this time, and she really didn't know the reason. Now that the situation is urgent, Tenaya has no time to study the reason, and of course the half-elf female mage is not ready to let Aisha go, she must dig out the secret of this girl, so that the black dragon can be so exciting and even robbed after being exposed. The secret contained in Aisha is anything but simple.

"Follow me, so do you!"

Tenaya took Aisha and a few maids to a portal, which seemed to have just been activated, and seven or eight people dressed as mages were coming out of the light curtain formed by the magic.

"What the hell is going on here, Miss Tenaya. ”

Seeing Tenaya walking over with the elf girl, the young male mage with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses immediately asked.

"Little ghost~ If you don't want to die now, it's best to leave immediately. Tenaya ignored the other party and walked towards the portal with Aisha in her arms.

Outwardly, Tenaya was even smaller than the male mage in front of her. But in terms of actual age, Tenaya is indeed qualified to call this male mage a little ghost, and the other party is a little blushing, as if he wants to vomit in his mouth but does not dare to vomit. For Leonas, who was already a seventeenth-level mage at the age of twenty-four, his achievements were also worth boasting about on the entire continent, but in the face of the half-elf female mage in front of him, this young mage, who was also a confidant of the imperial prince, had a headache and didn't know how to communicate with him. Even if he is now rudely called a little ghost, in the face of a great mage whose magic level may have reached level 20, no matter how much grievance and anger Leonas dares to hold back in his heart.

"Get the portal to start again at once, and get Aisha and my maid to safety first, and I'll explain it to you later. Tena said as she cast some kind of magic on Elsa and the maids, some kind of spiritual magic for silence.

Leonas and a middle-aged mage behind him recognized the spell at a glance. But neither of them had any intention of stopping it, even if it was obvious that Tenaya was planning to keep some secrets. After all, Tena is a popular person in front of Prince Augusta, not only a powerful magician, but also a master of all systems of forging, tailoring, leather, and jewelry, and no one dares to offend her in such an identity.

However, the portal has just been activated, and an official who came here to inspect was sent away, and the mages are busy starting to replace the magic crystal, and at the same time to cool down the portal, and the portal seems to be unable to start for a while, which makes Tenaya frown suddenly, I knew that there would be today's situation, and I should have personally taught these clumsy guys to build this portal.

At that time, Tenaya, who had deciphered the portal technology, only threw the drawings and parameters to the mages and researchers of the Karlsmen Empire in order to save time. The portal, created according to the drawings and parameters, was very inefficient, and neither the activation frequency nor the weight of the teleportation unit reached Tenaya's estimate.

In addition, there was the official who dared to use the portal to escape first. In any case, in Miss Turna's opinion, his official position is over today!

"Miss Turnaya, can you tell me what's going on, why is there a highest-level call for help? Leonas looked and stood anxiously waiting for Tenaya, and finally couldn't help but ask again.

"Do you want to be a dragon slayer?"

Tenaya suddenly asked a sentence that made Leonas feel inexplicable, but the next second there seemed to be a commotion outside the room, as if the entire arsenal was shouting desperately, and faintly there was a loud sound of firing magic crystal cannons echoing.

"The black dragon is flying!!Miss Tenaya!!"

One of the soldiers had already slammed open the door and shouted loudly in front of the mages in the room, his voice was full of fear of the unknown, and Leonas and the mages who had arrived with him were all stunned.
