Chapter 163: Rebellion
Suddenly, an elf in a postman's hat landed on the terrace jutting out of the window, and he bowed gracefully to Dale: "Clever and beautiful Miss Jasmine, are you here again looking at your hometown?" The great empire is at war, and your family will be glad that you are studying in the Emerald Forest. ”
Daile smiled and returned the salute to the elf: "The busy and free postman is always tired of bringing news to distant relatives for everyone. You are the most well-informed elf, has something happened in the outside world lately? ”
"The war has spread throughout the world, and important things are happening every day and every hour, and the biggest recent event is definitely the Battle of the Yusliska Plains on the eastern border of the Kingdom of Leo.
The Republic of Restlong and the Federation of Burn Tuen gathered 350,000 troops, and launched an attack on the Kingdom of Leo with the support of the Shimmers, and the armies of both sides had been engaged in fierce battles on the Yusliska Plains for more than a week, with tens of thousands of casualties on the worst day.
The latest news, the newly reorganized Blue Wolf Legion in the Tedgar Hills of the Golden Shield Empire has arrived in the Kingdom of Leo, which is an army composed of all barbarian blood humans, and the leader of the legion is the newly promoted Viscount Sergei. I heard that Viscount Sergei swore an oath when he met with Empress Christina that the Blue Wolf Legion would never let the enemy set foot in the territory of the Leo Kingdom. ”
Since the outbreak of the war, Princess Dale has become very concerned about the changes within the empire.
A year ago, Duke Meteor led the Imperial Army to pacify the Tedgar Hills and capture the Duke of Celtic with his own hands. After negotiations, the Duke of Celts signed an agreement with the Empire, voluntarily relinquishing the right to use the Tedgar Hills and recognizing the Empire's direct rule over the Tedgar Hills.
Duke Meteor of the Angry Waves then established the province of Tedgar Hills and temporarily acted as the governor of the province.
Duke Meteor vigorously promoted human officials, and while reorganizing the barbarian legion, he established the Blue Wolf Legion, which was dominated by humans.
Now it is this blue wolf legion that is sent to the Leo Kingdom to participate in the war, they have received most of the equipment replaced by the original northern legion, and after replenishing a batch of magic guide weapons, they have become a strong main army of the empire.
Such a legion was sent to the Leo Kingdom, which shows that the situation there is very serious, and the military strength of the Leo Kingdom alone can no longer stop the enemy's offensive.
Princess Dale said to the postman, "Thank you, postman. Do you come to me because of my faith? ”
The elven postman finally remembered what he was doing, he patted his head, and then took out a letter from his satchel: "Every time I see beautiful Jasmine, I always forget my job. This is your letter...... The letter was so strange that I don't remember when it appeared in my satchel. But since the recipient above is you, I'll bring it with me.
Please keep it away. ”
"Thank you......" Princess Dale took the letter, and it was strange to look at the envelope, because it did not have the address and name of the sender on it.
Just as Princess Dale was about to open the envelope, an alarm sounded inside the academy.
"Urgent notice: there is a rebellion in the Dragon Kingdom! There is a rebellion in the Dragon Kingdom! In the event of an unknown truth, it is forbidden for any faculty, staff, and students of the academy to travel to the Dragon Kingdom.
Again, no college staff or students are allowed to travel to the Dragon Nation, and try to avoid direct contact with the Dragon.
All the professors in charge of the faculty are invited to come to the dean's office immediately!
All the professors in charge of the faculty are invited to come to the dean's office immediately! ”
The surprise startled the elven postman, and a dragon roared by, bringing up the wind that nearly knocked him off the terrace. He grabbed the railing to stabilize his body, and said nervously to Princess Dale, "Good chats are always short-lived, and I must send all the remaining letters before the city is under martial law."
Goodbye, beautiful jasmine.
The war will end, and peace will come! ”
The elven postman turned over and jumped down, and a flying horse rushed up to catch the postman, and then flew quickly towards the Emerald Court.
At this time, the entire Jade Dream Academy was in a panic, and everyone was afraid that the rebellion of the Dragon Kingdom would spread to the Emerald Forest.
Princess Dale ran quickly back to her room, sat down in front of the lamp, and opened the letter.
"Dale:
Hello, I'm Clear Sky! I'm in the abyss right now, and I can only contact you in this way.
It's been a wonderful journey, and the abyss is constantly influencing me, and I'm learning about it. I don't know what I've been changed by the abyss, but my research into it has yielded some results.
This letter is one of the results...... If it goes smoothly into your hands.
Now I need you to find the Magic Spring......"
The letter was very short and came to an abrupt end before it was finished.
Dale didn't know why Miss Sunny Sky had asked her to go to the Magic Spring now, since the Headhunter incident, she had instinctively feared the Magic Spring. But this is a letter from Miss Sunny Sky from the abyss, and it must have been of great significance.
No matter what danger awaited her in the Magic Spring, or what was happening outside, Dale immediately packed her bags.
After writing a note to his mentor, he quietly left the Jade Magic Academy and re-entered the Emerald Forest where there were still remnants of the Headhunters.
Begins her second adventure in search of the Magic Spring.
At this time, Luke was already inside his King's Dragon's Lair.
There are traces of the rebellion of the Silver Ice Dragon King Soto, and the large-scale gathering of the ice dragons cannot hide from the dragons in the Dragon Kingdom.
In the face of the approaching army of frost dragons led by King Soto, the silver ice dragon, Luke also gathered his own army of king dragons, which was a powerful force of more than a thousand dragons.
Strange to say, when Luke returned to the dragon kingdom from the empire after ending the war in the Tedgar Hills, he found that there was a huge dragon group without a dragon king, so he took over this dragon group and the territory occupied by the dragon group with a very fast speed before the other dragon kings found out.
Luke can quickly receive this dragon group, and there is also this dragon group that is very close to him.
As for why there is no dragon king in this dragon group, and why they are close to themselves, the dragons in the dragon group themselves don't know why. They felt like they had a dragon king, but they just couldn't remember who he was.
Luke immediately guessed that the dragon king must be the dragon who had entered the abyss, but for some reason the world had forgotten about him.
As a result, the King's Dragon group was greatly inflated, and the volume and influence of its speech were naturally very different from before. The more the position of the gluttonous king is more and more secure, so that the dragon kings who oppose him are more and more impatient.
And because the elves and humans entered the dragon kingdom to build cities and factories, their activities were constantly affecting the living environment of the dragons, and the silver ice dragon King Soto took the opportunity to provoke the dissatisfaction of some of the dragons, and this rebellion was born.
With the Ice Dragons in the lead, more and more dragons join the rebels against the Gluttonous King.
More lively dragons also gathered on the outer layer of King's Peak.
However, the dragons were still very restrained, and there was no fratricidal battle, but only a confrontation at King's Peak.
The dragon kings knew that the best solution was to resolve this dispute at the lowest cost. If there is a large-scale civil war within the Dragon Kingdom, it may bring disaster to the dragon in the environment of the outside world.
Therefore, the rebels put forward only one condition: the gluttonous king abdicates!
Hold public opinion and oppress the current regime to fall.
Luke was all too familiar with such a bridge.
The gluttonous king offered to negotiate for the opposition to send representatives to the king's lair.
In order to show his sincerity in not wanting to fight a civil war and to establish his prestige in overthrowing the current king, King Soto was invited to the king's lair.
The dragon representing the opposition negotiates with the gluttonous king.
The dragon kings who came were also in place.
Before the negotiations began, King Soto, the silver ice dragon, first listed the three major crimes of the gluttonous king.
The first is to destroy the peace of the Dragon Kingdom. Humans and elves have built cities, opened factories in the Dragon Kingdom, and wantonly collected resources and various thefts in the Dragon Kingdom, which has deeply affected the normal life of the dragons. And these are all brought by the gluttonous king, who is betraying the interests of the dragon kingdom, destroying the traditional life of the dragons, and making the dragons sleep peacefully.
This one has been echoed by many dragons.
Although the Golden Shield Empire is vigorously cracking down on all kinds of crimes that cross the border and invade the dragon's living area, driven by huge profits, such crimes can only be reduced, and it is impossible to eliminate them. There aren't many such problems in Elf City, but there are some of them.
And as cities grow in size and more people move in, there is a rising trend of similar cases, and more and more dragons are being affected.
The second charge is that the gluttonous king has annexed a group of dragons that do not belong to him.
When the gluttonous king became the king of the dragon kingdom, there were several twilight dragons around him, and all the dragon kings saw it. Later, although some wild dragons were recruited, the size of the king dragon group was not large. But one day, the number of king's dragons skyrocketed instantly, and it was then that the dragonkings discovered that there was a huge dragon's group without a dragon king in the dragon kingdom.
It's weird, and everyone can't remember who the dragon king of this dragon group is, but the gluttonous king swallowing this dragon group makes all the dragon kings red. At the same time, they were all vigilant, how did the dragon king disappear, is it related to the gluttonous king?
The third sin is that the gluttonous king is not actively looking for artifacts. The other four ancient civilizations sent at least one powerful member into the abyss to find the artifact's whereabouts, but the gluttonous king did nothing.
Older dragons know what artifacts mean to ancient civilizations. If the other four civilizations have recovered the artifact, and only the dragon civilization does not, then there is only one ending for the dragon civilization.
Compared with the first two crimes, the last one is the biggest dereliction of duty of a dragon king. Even the dragon kings, who supported the gluttonous king, could not justify it on this point.
The Silver Ice Dragon King Soto was there to talk eloquently, listing the crimes of the gluttonous king one by one.
"I knew that the gluttonous king was the king of the dragon kingdom who had been chosen through the king's trial, and I was not satisfied at the time, but I accepted this fact. However, I and most of the dragon kings were very disappointed by the gluttonous king's next administration, he completely forgot that he was the king of the dragon kingdom, and regarded himself as a servant of the human race, constantly betraying the interests of the dragon kingdom.
If we don't overthrow this unscrupulous king, the dragon kingdom will surely become a vassal of mankind, and even become a mount of mankind! ”
This was simply the greatest insult to the dragon, and the instigation of the Silver Ice Dragon King Soto immediately caused the dragon kings to denounce the gluttonous king.
Demanded the abdication of the gluttonous king.
King Sayr of the Red Crystal Dragon stepped forward, and he quieted the King's Dragon's Lair with a rather high-pitched dragon roar.
Then he said to all the dragon kings, "Magic makes dragons wise, and lifespan makes dragons think; A loud voice does not represent the truth, and a unilateral conviction does not represent notarization. The king of the dragon kingdom has never been a leader full of honors, it is his duty to do well, and if he does not do well, he must accept the accountability of the dragon kings.
But no dragon king has ever lost the power to defend himself. ”
The words of King Cel, the Red Crystal Dragon, calmed down the dragon kings.
It is true that the king of the dragon kingdom cannot lose the power to defend himself.
King Soto, the Silver Ice Dragon, snorted an ice mist from his nostrils and said, "Of course, the Gluttonous King can defend himself, and that will make us see his crimes more clearly. ”
King Cel, the Red Crystal Dragon, said to Luke, who was standing in the center of the King's Dragon's Lair, "The Dragonlords need a reasonable explanation. ”
Luke opened his mouth and said to the dragon kings, "If I need to explain everything to you in what I decide, then not only will I lose precious time, but there will also be a risk of important secrets being leaked.
King Soto, you have secretly visited Sky City and been summoned by the Sword of Oath, so don't think it's secretive. ”
The dragon kings looked at King Soto, the silver ice dragon.
A thousand years of peace can't erase the hatred of a thousand years ago, and with many old guys who have participated in ancient wars present, it is too inappropriate for King Soto to secretly go to see the Sword of Oath.
King Soto, the Silver Ice Dragon, didn't expect that such a secret thing as seeing the Sword of Oath would be known to the Gluttonous King.
How did he know?
Did you leak the secret on your side, or did Sky City betray you?
"I've seen the Sword of Oath." Not knowing how the secret was leaked, King Soto simply admitted that he explained to himself: "The Sword of Oath thinks that human civilization is a great threat to our ancient civilization, and I think so too. Moreover, he took the initiative to invite me to meet this time, and I was afraid of causing unnecessary misunderstandings, so I secretly went to Sky City.
I didn't do anything detrimental to the interests of the Dragon Kingdom. ”
"Of course I know that you haven't done anything detrimental to the interests of the Dragon Kingdom, because you don't have the ability yet." After taunting King Soto, Luke continued to say to the dragon kings, "Although Sword of Oath became the archangel of Sky City, his act of killing the former archangel caused some angels to be dissatisfied, so I obtained a channel to hear news from Sky City.
It's the same in the Dragon Kingdom, where anything I say here can reach the ears of our opponents.
In particular, one of the accusations you made against me was related to artifacts. No! Two of them are related to artifacts, do you want to hear my explanation?
Look, I've just divulged a secret. ”
The dragon kings were silent.
There are two artifacts related, apart from three, which one else?
