A hundred years ago, battlemages descended into this world with a mission of invasion and conquest, and in just a few years, the flames of war spread across the continent. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Many people know that the war is called the Civil War, but few people know that the war was not supposed to end with the separation of the North and the South.

It is said that back then, the dragon clan, the forest clan, the classical magicians, and the emerging wind and thunder mages all joined forces, and they were not opponents of battle mages.

After all, the cultivation system of the Wind and Thunder Mage at that time was not perfect, and in the process of fighting against the Battle Mage, whether it was the Dragon Clan, the Forest Clan, or the once powerful classical magician, it was not as effective as the Wind Thunder Mage.

So it was a losing war.

Now, a hundred years later, this world should have been the territory of the Battle Mage, planted with the banner of the higher plane called Sendroo, the home of the Battle Mage.

It seems that in the final battle between the two sides, something has changed that no one expected.

So the battle mage retreated, the Wind and Thunder Empire was established, the Dragon Dao was quietly born, the Forest Clan survived, and the Dragon Clan disappeared into history forever.

The final battle was fought in the Hengduan Mountains.

In the time of the classical magicians, the Hengduan Mountains existed, an impossibly large mountain range roughly in a zigzag shape, dividing the vast world continent in two, separating the north and south.

Hence the name of the transept.

Before the arrival of the Battle Mages, the forest tribes, descendants of the ancient druids, lived in the north. At that time, the forest tribe was often jokingly called barbarians by humans, or forest barbarians. The south was under the rule of classical magicians. The Hengduan Mountains between the north and the south are infested with magical beasts, which is a good place for the young people of the forest clan to go on adventures and hunts, and it is also a place for classical magicians to find suitable magical materials, medicinal materials, and subdue magical beasts.

As for the dragon clan, they do not have a specific gathering place, but live scattered all over the continent, living in small worlds. It is now known as the remains of the dragon family.

A hundred years ago, the Hengduan Mountains cut off the cultural exchanges between the north and the south, yes, before that cruel and tragic war, there was not much communication between humans and the forest people, and of course, there were not too many disputes.

And today's Hengduan Mountains are a veritable battlefield!

In the minds of many residents of the empire, the empire has been stable for a hundred years under the strong pressure of the north, which makes many people feel that they have peace of mind, thinking that the fighting nations of the north are no longer such a big threat.

But what they don't know is that the empire's hundred years of peace were actually bought with a hundred years of blood, fighting, and sacrifice in the Hengduan Mountains.

Teacher Serry's husband died in this ancient mountain range and never went out again, but how many people know about this news?

Who knew that every year, a large number of Imperial soldiers would sleep forever in this vast mountain range.

The battle in the Hengduan Mountains was even more tragic than the war a hundred years ago, and both sides were becoming more and more familiar with each other's abilities, so if they didn't fight, they would have to divide life and death, and there would be no other ending.

Among the mountains, there is a small mountainous area that is said to have been named in the ancient Druid era, and in the Druid language, it is called the "Light of Hope".

The terrain of this mountainous area is extremely complex, so complicated that all the means of transportation of the empire are difficult to enter, and if you want to transport supplies, you can only use strategic airships to airdrop.

In fact, historically, the attitude of the imperial side towards this mountainous area was once completely ignored and completely left alone.

Imagine such a complex and difficult terrain, it can be called a natural danger, so even if it is not defended, it is difficult for battle mages to invade the south through here, right?

But the Fighting Dynasty has always been characterized by the most terrifying, craziest, and deadliest attacks from the most unlikely time and place to launch an offensive!

On the third day after the internal rebellion of the Forest Clan, the Northern Kingdom took advantage of the weakness of the South and the death of the Forest King, the most important combat force, and attacked in a big way.

And when the frontal offensive started in the wilderness outside the imperial capital, a small group of the most elite battle mages actually touched this complex mountainous area, all the way around the back of the imperial capital, trying to attack inside and outside, and break through the imperial capital in one fell swoop!

The crisis was defused, of course, and since then, the Empire has made this mountainous area one of many war zones in the Hengduan Mountains.

This is the Arcana.

Yes, the reason why the Arcana is so important is that it is actually close to the imperial capital.

In the early spring of the Alcana, there is still unmelted ice in many places, and the sunshine here has always been very good, but there is no temperature in the sun.

"Be careful!"

A voice that was visibly annoyed and impatient, but deliberately suppressed its volume, sounded as the leader of a squad of Wind and Thunder Mages, followed by ten heavily armed Imperial soldiers.

The squad leader had dark skin, looked a little old, and had two medals on his shoulders, apparently, a second-order soldier of the Empire.

At this age, he is still serving as a second-order soldier, which means that his cultivation potential has long been at the end.

But at the same time, he has not retired at this age, which shows that he has extraordinary insight and experience.

"Boys, remember, in the hellish place of the Alcana, mentality is the most important, experience is second, and strength can only be ranked third!"

"For example, when we go out on patrol this season, the most important thing to guard against is not the madmen of the northern land, but the Arcana dragons who have just finished hibernation and are hungry one by one. ”

The team leader whispered as he vigilantly and calmly surveyed his surroundings.

In the early spring season, the battle mages generally do not attack much, and the summer of each year is the most intense and difficult time of the battle. However, the Arkana Disaurus is different, this ancient creature is said to be related to the dragons, but unlike the dragons, they have the habit of hibernating. Any full-grown Arcana dragon has a strength of around level seven to eight, and it would be very troublesome if a group popped up all at once.

But for some young people, the word awe is rarely in their lexicon.

"There's no need to be so exaggerated. ”

A female soldier in her early twenties in the team licked her lips and looked expectant, "I'm not here to be cautious, I'm here to fight." If there is no battle mage to be an opponent for the time being, it seems that it would be good to fight with the ancient demonic beasts?"

When the team leader heard this, he almost couldn't help but scold his mother immediately.

Hell, in addition to the unlucky ghosts who are forcibly dispatched by the military department every year, there are also some crazy people who voluntarily go to the Alcana to seek excitement, and the squad leader is more reluctant to team up with the latter than the former.

Although the former is easy to be timid and afraid, and then numb and slack, it is better than those who take the initiative to find trouble!

The team leader remembers that one of the most dangerous experiences in his career as a team leader was when a thrill-seeking madman took the initiative to jump out and provoke a male Alcana dragon king in estrus when he should have been hiding!

Thinking of that experience, the squad leader's eyelids couldn't help jumping.

He took a deep breath and said in a vicious tone: "Shut up for me! If you dare to find trouble for me, you don't need a battle mage to do it, Lao Tzu will find someone to kill you when he returns to the camp tonight!"

The female soldier didn't seem to expect the squad leader's reaction to be so fierce, her face changed significantly, and in the end, although she chose to retreat silently under the fierce expression of the squad leader, a trace of disapproval and disdain flashed in the depths of her eyes.

The other team members were silent one by one, they were all forcibly transferred, and they had no choice but to accept their fate, so they didn't say anything more.

A morning passed, and the team completed today's patrol plan in accordance with the established patrol route.

The team leader looked at the sky and showed a rare smile: "Yes, yes, there are very few patrol missions without wind and waves, and the traces of invasion of battle mages found are not many, but they are not very few, which is very good." ”

A recruit who had just arrived for three months couldn't help but ask, "Why is it a good thing that the battle mage has left a lot of traces?"

In his opinion, it was better not to see even a single hair left by the battle mage!

The squad leader sneered and said, "In this mountainous area, everything that is abnormal is a sign of impending mortal danger. If we don't see even the slightest trace of a battle mage along the way, then I can tell you unambiguously that our squad has completely fallen into some terrible trap. Rather than finding nothing during the patrol, I'd rather run into the team of battle mages who have been patrolling all along!"

After teaching the recruit a hard lesson, and seeing the other party bow his head and say yes, the team leader nodded with satisfaction.

In this place that will drive people crazy, it is really necessary to bully and bully some recruits, and regulating the mood is one thing, and improving the future survival rate of these idiot boys is another. Although the former is the main purpose of the squad leader.

"Alright, we can go back. Don't let your guard down, I've seen too many unlucky people who have been killed on the way back from patrols!" said the team leader.

At this time, he suddenly frowned, and found that the female soldier who had bumped into him before had left the team slightly, and walked to the river that was still frozen not far away, and squatted there as if he had found something.

"What are you doing?" the squad leader felt a surge of anger rush to the top of his head, "Didn't I say that, no one can leave the team without my order?

The female soldier stood up, shrugged her shoulders indifferently, completely ignoring the squad leader's angry scolding, and said to the other team members with a smile, "Look what I found?"

When everyone looked around, they saw that she was holding an ellipsoidal skull-sized object in her hand.

Before the team members knew why, the anger on the squad leader's face disappeared instantly, replaced by horror and deep fear.

He almost screamed, "Hell, put that thing down! You're deaf? I'll let you go!"

The team leader could see very clearly that the ellipsoidal thing was none other than an earth dragon's egg!

And it's ...... A "winter's egg"!

The Arcana Disaurus is an amazing creature, and the incubation period of their eggs is variable, and the more powerful the individual, the longer it will take to hatch.

The vast majority of earth dragons lay eggs in the summer and hatch in the fall, while a few do not do so until the winter.

And now it's early spring, and there is still an unhatched Earth Dragon Egg here, so you can imagine how much the hatcher of this egg should attach importance to this egg.

"Hurry up and put it down. The team leader finally said, "There is a winter-old Earth Dragon Egg here, indicating that at least a powerful female Earth Dragon is nearby, and it may be foraging now." Put it down now, and we'll go!"

The team leader knows very well that only a strong individual can give birth to a strong individual, and the mother of an egg that is still hatching after the winter is definitely an existence at the level of the Earth Dragon King!

This is the last terrible thing that Imperial veterans want to face in the Arcana Warzone, except for the team of Battle Mages!

But it seems to ...... It's too late.

The female soldier suddenly heard the sound of ice shattering from behind her, and she subconsciously turned around, and then saw a terrible scene that made her heart stop.

The ice on the river behind him cracked, and a swarthy behemoth that was five meters high and nearly ten meters long broke through the ice!

The female soldier forced a smile, her previous courage and arrogance vanished in an instant, and she made a gesture of slowly putting the egg down and then retreating, hoping not to anger the other party.

But at this time, the exclamations of the squad leader and other team members sounded behind her, and the female soldier suddenly felt a pain in her waist, and then her entire lower body lost consciousness, and she fell to the ground heavily.

The huge pupils of the earth dragon that broke through the ice were full of cold metallic light.

Its tail swept over the female soldier's body at lightning speed, cutting her off at the waist, and then the tail turned around, gently and deftly catching the egg, and pulling it back to itself.

Only then did the female soldier realize what had happened and howled wildly on the ground.

The squad leader's face turned pale, and he pulled the guy who was closest to him, who was obviously stunned by the tragic scene in front of him, and shouted in a low voice: "Run! Run!!"

The recruit stiffly turned his head and asked, "I...... Shall we run, sir?"

The team leader smiled miserably and said, "I didn't expect to be so unlucky that I would meet an Earth Dragon Queen who is even more terrible than the Earth Dragon King." Hell, when we retreated, the leader had to stay behind and break the back, so I don't necessarily have to let the nine of you break the back, right? Then we're all going to die...... Damn, don't go yet!!"

When he saw the size and speed of the earth dragon, the team leader knew that he would not survive.

If you keep coming, the whole team will die, and you will only be the last to die.

If he stayed, he would have been the first to die, but the nine stupid/awkward recruits in the squad shouldn't have to die.

The squad leader took a deep breath, and the fierceness and viciousness on his face disappeared, leaving only a resolute death intent.

Years of experience in the Alcana mountains have made him accustomed to speaking with his voice suppressed, and no matter how annoyed he was before, he always suppressed the volume.

At this time, after taking a full breath, he burst out with a long-lost roar: "What are you still doing in a daze?! Run!!"

With a little footstep, the team leader instantly turned on the wind and thunder physique, pulled out a heavy machete at his waist, and rushed towards the Earth Dragon Queen who was looking down indifferently!

(I don't have a lot of scenes, but I like the role of the team leader.) )
