Chapter 224: Dusty History
After listening to the elaboration of the Great Chief of the Flower Demon, Albert nodded thoughtfully. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
There is no need for the other party to lie to him, he is now just meat on the chopping board, "I believe in you, Your Royal Highness the Great Chief, if I have anything that can help you, I ......"
"Wait, boy. At that moment, Quillion interrupted Albert, without the demeanor of a superior person, "Lycia, you seem to have missed a particularly important story. He said dissatisfied, like a child who was in a hurry to prove himself.
"Of course, Quillion, you are too impulsive and grumpy, as you were when you were young, and you still haven't changed, and you probably won't be in another 6,000 years. "The Great Chief of the Flower Demon, Lycia Wan'er.
She coughed lightly and looked at Albert, "Please fulfill the request of a child who has not grown up, and let's talk about the story of the forest trolls." ā
"It's my pleasure. Albert smiled.
"What a sensible child. Lycia's tone was soft, and her gaze at Albert was full of appreciation, mixed with emotions similar to motherly love, as if she were looking at her own child.
"Let me tell myself. An anxious Quillion spoke again, "The Dreadlord is not very happy with his work, the number of Dreadnonds and Fallen Flower Demons is very scarce, and their growth rate is too slow. As a result, the Dreaddemon will begin to search for new minions, but it will not be smooth, his demonic energy can only work on plants, and there are not many plants that have intelligence and can move like animals. Just when the Dreaddemon was at his wit's end, he discovered the Lake of Eternity and extracted a magical energy from its waters, arcane energy. ā
"Arcane energy?" Albert was stunned and couldn't help but let out a voice, this was the first time he had heard the word. Even the dragon lineage has not been recorded.
"That's right. Lycia replied to Albert, "It's a super energy that is unique to the continent of Atlantis, and has infinite possibilities. She continued, "After countless attempts and failures, the Dreaddemon will create a new race with the help of the chief alchemist of the Demon Legion, and the Dreaddemon will give his masterpiece a resounding name. Forest Trolls. ā
"Lycia, watch your words, it's not creation, it's transformation! That damn guy just used arcane energy to transform us!" Quillion growled.
"Can't you, my old friend, let me finish speaking? you're six thousand years old, and you're still like an adolescent child, energetic, rebellious, and impulsive. Lycia frowned. It's like you're fed up with the other party's nonsense.
"If you're right, I'm not going to argue with that, so go ahead. Quillion snorted.
"Well, where did I just go?" Lycia gave Quillion a blank look, "it's all your fault for interrupting me, I'm too old to compare to you children who are only a few thousand years old. She rubbed her temples. The tone was a little helpless.
"The Dreaddemon will give the forest troll a name. Albert kindly reminded at the same time. He was also secretly guessing the age of the flower demon Lycia, in the eyes of the other party, thousands of years old were just children.
"Boy, be careful with your words, the noble forest troll isn't named after that damn fellow. If you talk nonsense, even if you suffer the wrath of the dragons. I will also wipe you out of this world. Quillion's expression was cold, and his tone was unkind, saying that Albert had absolutely reason to believe that what the other party said was the truth.
"Enough, Quillion, if you threaten our guests again. Please get out of here. Lycia frowned.
"Don't be angry, Lycia, it will grow wrinkles. Quillion was young, no, he was a child who would never grow up. Torus scoffed.
"You're yelling at me for an outsider? It seems that I'm superfluous here, and I'll leave by myself without your invitation. Quillion said with a sneer, and then left the hall without looking back.
As he passed Albert, Quillion gave him a threatening look.
"Don't be afraid, Albert, with our protection, Quillion can't hurt you, and he's just a little grumpy, and his heart isn't bad. Lycia flapped her butterfly-like wings and came up to Albert and whispered softly.
"Thank you for your concern, I believe that His Highness is not targeting me, perhaps, he is just a little concerned about the origin of the forest trolls. Albert always had a smile on his face, and did not take Quillion's angry words to heart. After a pause, he decided to say what he thought, for some reason, his intuition gave him an inexplicable intimacy with Licia, not the beautiful and moving appearance of the other party. "In my opinion, the background is not important, the bloodline does not represent everything, the real measure of a person's value depends on what he does. ā
When he learned the truth, Albert felt a little sympathy for the forest trolls, as well as the Dreadtree demons and the fallen flower demons.
Although they have joined the anti-demon coalition, they are still known as the evil devil race by the world, and are hated by all races. But who knows how cruel and drastic their race has been, and how unwilling and aggrieved they are in their hearts.
"It's unbelievable, in my impression, the dragons have always been empty-eyed and unstoppable, I didn't expect you to say such a thing, Albert, you are such an interesting child. Lycia did not hesitate to approve, and her eyes searched Albert's face.
"Actually, I was raised by humans and had never met any other dragons, and I didn't even know who my parents were. Albert said with a wry smile.
"How is this possible?" said Lycia, a little surprised, "Dragons will never leave their children behind. She said firmly, "Believe me, I know the dragon clan, although those behemoths are known as the overlords of the continent, the powerful bloodline power has also brought them a lot of troubles, and the biggest thing is fertility." Because the power of the bloodline is too strong, it is difficult for the fetus of the dragon clan to form, and the gestation cycle is also very long, some of which can last for thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years. Therefore, each dragon egg is considered a treasure by the dragons. ā
"But I was indeed abandoned by the dragons. Albert's expression darkened.
"Your parents and people must be in trouble. Lycia caressed Albert's cheek like a mother soothes a wounded child, "About 10,000 years ago, the Terrans grew stronger and their ambitions swelled dramatically. Driven by desire, the emperor of the Terran Baffia Empire once sent someone to steal twelve green dragon eggs. Wanted to retrain the twelve dragon knights who had appeared in the war of gods and demons, but this act almost led to the extinction of the human race. ā
"Ahem, that's enough, Lycia. Torus interrupted Lycia with a cough, looking a little unnatural.
"It doesn't matter. Those gods are still hiding in the mountains of Okusri to recuperate from their wounds, how can they have the energy to regulate the mortal world. Lycia waved her hand nonchalantly, and continued:
"Although the four-colored dragon clan is invincible, they are the guardians of the continent and have never harmed or oppressed any race. But the dragon has reverse scales, and if you touch it, you will be angry, and it is obvious that the greedy human race has touched the bottom limit of the dragon race. The enraged Emerald Dragon, Queen of the Firmament, Aibeina, rains down storms and thunder to destroy all those involved in stealing the dragon's eggs, and learns that the gods are the true masterminds. ā
A fiery look flashed in Albert's eyes. This was the first time he had heard of a story about the dragons, and it was not recorded in his dragon heritage.
He didn't say anything, quietly waiting for the other party to finish.
"The Emerald Queen led the Green Dragon Legion up Mount Okusli to demand an apology from the gods and hand over the killers involved in stealing the dragon's eggs. However, instead of apologizing to the Green Dragons, the self-righteous gods sent an envoy to order Queen Aibeina to apologize to the Terran Emperor and compensate the Terrans with a thousand dragon eggs. In a fit of rage, Aibeyna killed more than forty oracles. And declare war on the gods. The gods, who felt that their authority had been challenged, led the Titan Legion to launch a counterattack against the Green Dragon Legion.
The Emerald Queen confronts the gods. Still without the slightest fear, the thunderstorm she descended almost destroyed the entire Pampas Plains, hundreds of millions of human races died, even the Holy Rank powerhouses were not spared, and Ai Beyina's hateful blow. Nearly wiped out the entire Terran. ā
"And then?" Albert finally spoke, and the curiosity in his eyes intensified.
"The Emerald Queen's actions completely angered the gods, and the nine Titan Lords showed no mercy, although Aibeina was enough to defeat any of the Titan Lords, but in the face of the gods joining forces. She could only retreat. Just when everyone thought that the green dragon was over and the war was about to end, the obsidian queen Christina, a friend of the Emerald Queen Aibeina, led the Black Dragon Legion, the Onyx Queen Annabella led the Red Dragon Legion, and the Amber Dragon King Augsig led the Yellow Dragon Legion, and also intervened in the war.
The four dragon kings once again suppressed the gods and the Titan legions, and as the number of participants on both sides grew, the twelve green dragon eggs eventually sparked a battle for supremacy between dragons and gods, known as the Battle of the Gods!
Prior to this battle, the Dragons had never had a conflict with any race. Before that, everyone thought that the dragons were just one of the more powerful races, including the conceited gods, who had always thought so, otherwise they would not have instructed the Terrans to steal the dragon eggs. But it turns out that dragons are not just a powerful race, they are also synonymous with being unmatched. In front of the dragon breath of the four-colored dragon king, the nine main gods and the Titan army were as vulnerable as fragile babies.
After killing and wounding countless divine envoys and divine guards, the gods surrendered, and the victor of the battle of the gods was the dragons, and the gods did not dare to compete with them wherever the dragon's breath reached. In order to survive, the Terrans were forced to sign an unequal treaty with the Dragons and became the eternal slaves of the Dragons. Although the gods were angry, they could only swallow their anger. The matter was eventually settled, and although the Terrans lost their dignity, they were exchanged for the continuation of the race. While the human race pays the price for greed, it also sounded the alarm for other races, don't touch the dragon's scales, otherwise the five-colored dragon clan that maintains world order and protects all races on the continent will turn into a world-destroying dragon clan. Since then, no one has dared to fight the idea of dragon eggs, and the dragons have also been portrayed by the humans as the embodiment of evil, but it is also privately discussed, and no race, any force, dares to record the crimes of the dragons in writing, including the gods who look down on the common people. ā
Albert nodded, he had heard of the battle of the gods, but only a few words, not to mention anything about the dragons, and the cause of the incident was caused by the greed of the human race and the conceit of the gods.
However, since the dragons are the victors, why did they suddenly disappear? Was it because of the conspiracy of the gods? Or was it the disillusioned dragons who were unwilling to shelter the Atlantes anymore? Neither the former nor the latter seemed to have any reason to keep him in the mortal world, just because he was a half-dragon?
Albert frowned, feeling a little depressed, but only for a moment.
At least he has the goal he is looking for, the war of the gods started 10,000 years ago, and the dragons also disappeared 10,000 years ago, so there is definitely a certain connection between the two things. "May I ask your Royal Highnesses, two noble chiefs, do you know the reason for the disappearance of the dragons, is it related to the battle of the gods and the gods?" he asked tentatively, not holding out much hope.
"I'm sorry, I don't know, the dragons didn't have any warning before they vanished, but I'm sure it wasn't the gods. Although the relationship between the dragon and the god has deteriorated since that battle, they have the same responsibility, guarding the Atlante continent and ensuring the continuation of various races, and the gods have no strength to compete with the dragon race. Lycia shook her head and said impatiently.
"Thank you, Your Highness the High Chief, please tell me the purpose of coming to me, and if I can do it, I will not refuse. Albert is colored.
Although no specific information has been obtained about the disappearance of the dragons, this is to be expected. If the truth is known so easily, then the mystery of the disappearance of the dragon clan will not become a mystery that has puzzled the various races for nearly 10,000 years and is still unexplainable.
"Of course you can. The Great Chief of the Dreaded Tree Demon Torus said, an ugly smile on his ugly face.
"Albert, we would like to ask you to dispel the demonic energy of the Death Rainforest, which is not difficult for dragons, especially red dragons. Lycia said with a smile.
"Dispel?" Albert was stunned, "what about you?"
"We'll be fine. Torus stepped forward and looked through the window at the sky shrouded in demonic energy, "We don't need demonic energy, but demonic energy imprisons us and makes it impossible for us to leave, like an invisible and strong shackle that binds us to this dark and dark place. ā
"Excuse me, what exactly should I do?" Albert nodded as if he didn't understand, and then asked, he didn't yet know that he had the ability to dispel the demonic energy of the Death Rainforest.
"Come with me, we'll take you somewhere, and when you get there, you'll know what to do. Lycia said.
