Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.
Chapter 125 The Ancient Dragon Arrives
Chapter 125 The Ancient Dragon Arrives
“Do you know who the other party is?”
Noah digested the news for a while, and then slowly asked,
“He’s a fanatic follower of the God of Hunting!”
“More than one? What’s the highest strength?”
“It seems there is a legend.”
The man who looked like a sailor answered, and finally he added with a little hesitation,
“I doubt they are from this world.”
“A follower of a god from another world? Humph! You have a pretty sharp mind.”
Noah snorted coldly. Most tracking methods can be rendered ineffective by lengthening the spatial distance, and the need to cross the space of the world can make almost all known tracking methods ineffective.
Although the fanatics of gods look like lunatics when they are crazy, it does not mean that they are brainless. If they really come from across the border, it will be difficult to find the murderer and kill him for revenge.
If the victim was someone from another branch of the dragon clan, it would probably be okay given the difficulty of tracking down the murderer, but now the one who fell was an adult silver dragon, so there is no possibility of letting this matter go.
Not to mention that Noah, who had only met him a few times, had some concerns about him. Just based on the blood relationship of the Silver Dragon Rafar himself, it was bound to stir up a storm.
“Your Highness Noah, the Silver Moon Elf named Cynthia has awakened.”
At this time, the great fairy Sifrea came to report.
“It’s really time to wake up.”
Noah couldn’t help but sigh and looked at the bronze dragon couple in front of him.
“Would you two like to come with me to visit?”
“The widow of Lord Rafar?”
The two bronze dragons transformed into human form looked at each other.
“We do need to tell her the news, but can she bear such bad news now?”
“Always gotta know.”
Noah was silent for a long while before responding.
The Silver Moon Elf, who was awakened by the legendary wizard who personally lifted the curse, looked haggard and silently looked at the three dragons in front of him. After a long while, he slowly nodded.
“I see. Thank you for letting me know the news. Can you give me some space to be alone? I want to be alone for a while.”
“Please accept my condolences.”
Noah left with the bronze dragon couple.
“Gugefer, pay attention to the Silver Moon Elf’s vital signs. If there are any abnormal changes, notify me immediately.”
“Order received.”
The tower spirit responded.
“I heard that Lord Rafar has a daughter.”
“There is indeed a daughter, but I will tell her about this.”
Noah looked at the bronze dragon couple who were obviously badly injured.
“Now you need to rest up.”
“We do need to rest, but not now. We need to inform Lord Rafar’s relatives and friends as soon as possible about his death. We need to deliver the message in person. Those villains must pay the price for this and will not be tolerated.”
The bronze dragon couple declined Noah’s kindness and insisted.
The Golden Dragon naturally had no reason to continue to stay. He should be the first person to know the bad news, except for those who witnessed it, because the wife and daughter of the Silver Dragon Rafar were all placed here.
“The silver dragon that adored you so much has fallen?”
After the bronze dragon couple said goodbye and left, adoptive mother Selina appeared. As the controller of the Mage City, as long as she wanted, she could know everything that happened in the surrounding area.
“Well, he was killed by a fanatic follower of a god from another world.”
“Hunting a silver dragon is really rare. But it has nothing to do with me. But you may need to put in some effort.”
Selina sighed, shook her head, and made her position clear.
She would not get involved in this incident. Although the strength of an adult silver dragon was nothing to her, the power behind it that dared to attack the metal dragon clan was obviously very powerful.
In the current state of the Augustus family, she only wants to maintain stability and does not want to participate in any major events. The legendary wizard is certainly not a weakling, but if you want to talk about how strong he is, he is not so unscrupulous that he can participate in major events that may be interfered with by gods.
“Me? What do I need to worry about?”
Noah was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized and reacted. He would not take action now to avenge the Silver Dragon Rafar. Not to mention whether he could do it, such a thing was not his turn to do.
Although the number of metal dragons is small, they are not immune to death. Not to mention other things, just on the battlefield against the abyss and hell, tens of thousands of metal dragons have fallen.
Throughout the ages, countless metal dragons have died unexpected deaths. There are too many metal dragons that have met with misfortune before they have grown to their peak, but those who kill a metal dragon often have to pay a price.
Now that a vicious incident of an adult silver dragon being hunted has occurred, and this is during a relatively peaceful and non-turbulent period in the world environment, it is bound to cause a storm.
“Will I never see my father again?”
Facing the question from the elf half-dragon Isabella, Noah looked at the little fellow who looked up at him stubbornly. After a long while, he slowly nodded.
“Yes, you won’t be able to see your father anymore.”
The girl’s silver-white eyes suddenly turned dim at a speed visible to the naked eye. They became lifeless and extremely dim, as if her soul had been sucked out.
“Isabella, what are you doing here?”
Just as Noah was thinking about how to comfort the girl, a carefree and childish voice came,
“Didn’t you agree to go hunting the Ten-Headed Skeleton Ghost with me? You are late!”
When Jin Long looked in the direction of the voice, he saw a half-grown little kid climbing up the cliff, clinging to the rocks. His light golden eyes were particularly dazzling even on a sunny day.
Wuornos
The strongest of the third generation of the Augustus family, the little guy who has already turned ten is still a kid, looking about five or six years old. He awakened the Titan bloodline when he was born, and his development speed is much slower than that of humans of the same age.
However, anyone of the same age who dared to look down on him because of his appearance would be beaten to a pulp by him. He had verified this fact more than once.
The girl, who was immersed in grief, did not respond to the call from behind. She remained motionless, like a stone statue. However, Urnos, who was completely brainless, first greeted the golden dragon very politely.
“Uncle Noah!”
Then, under Noah’s surprised gaze, the little kid jumped up and kicked the slender elf girl with tears on her face.
“Ahaha, sneak attack!”
“Ur!”
The little bean leaped in the air, maintaining its kicking posture, and was fixed in midair, like a bug trapped in amber.
“Don’t be silly!” “What’s wrong with her?”
The little kid who was pinned by the golden dragon noticed that something was wrong with his new playmate.
“She will never see her father again.”
Noah removed Urnos’s immobilization spell.
“That’s it!”
Urnos scratched his head, then patted his head, looking like he had come up with a good idea. Then, under the strange gaze of the golden dragon, he walked over, picked up the girl, and carried her on his back.
“Elizabeth, I don’t know how to comfort you, but fighting can make you forget everything. Come on, follow me to hunt ghosts. Don’t be silent in sadness. This is not the expression you should show.”
Urnos dragged the girl, whose half body was completely hanging on the ground, to the edge of the cliff, and then jumped down.
“Uncle Noah, I’ll take her away first, don’t worry, I will take good care of her.”
“When did it happen? How did it get to this point?”
Noah’s expression was quite interesting. He really didn’t know when his nephew had gotten together with the Silver Dragon orphan.
“The bloodline of the Augustus family, well, is already messy enough. It doesn’t seem to matter if there’s some silver dragon blood mixed in. It doesn’t matter.”
Jinlong is quite open-minded.
Although this elven half-dragon was probably older than him, he might even be as old as his adoptive parents, or even older.
However, Urnos can be considered an immortal species, and immortal species do not need to care about the small gap of a hundred years or so. It is not a big problem as long as they can give birth to cubs.
“Is that Rafar’s daughter?”
A tall, silver-haired old man appeared beside the golden dragon. He looked at Urnos, who was half carrying and half dragging the elf girl across the mountains, and sighed in his silver eyes.
“Yes, Sir Hughes.”
Noah was not surprised at all by the old silver dragon that appeared silently beside him. The other party had already greeted him before.
“That boy is my nephew. He was a little rude. Please forgive me.”
“What’s this?”
Silver Dragon Xius, dressed like an old scholar, shook his head nonchalantly.
“Having such a partner, it shouldn’t take long for the child to get rid of the shadow of his father’s death, which is also a good thing.
In fact, we old guys should thank him for saving us one less thing to worry about.”
“Maybe I should have told her earlier, instead of letting her guess it herself, and then come to me with high expectations to find the answer, and finally get a desperate answer.”
Noah recalled the change in the elf girl’s expression just now, and there was a hint of guilt in his tone.
“It is a very cruel thing to let a child who has not grown up and cannot stand on his own know that his father has passed away.
You are actually very thoughtful, but some of us old guys were too ostentatious when we came, so the kid noticed something was wrong.”
The old silver dragon Hughes shook his head slightly.
“During this extraordinary period, let’s understand each other. No one can be perfect.”
“It’s not us who are at fault, but those despicable dragon hunters!”
“That’s right. No matter where they come from or who your Majesty’s devout believers they are, they must pay the price for this!”
The old silver dragon’s eyes showed a cold look, just like an ice storm on a glacier that never melts.
“No one can be exempted. Not even the immortal gods can protect them.”
As an old silver dragon, it is naturally outrageous to say such things, but he is not a single dragon. In fact, during this period, Noah’s territory has become a gathering place for metal dragons.
Although no dragon claimed it, and no dragon took the initiative to call for help, when they learned of Rafar’s fall, many metal dragons who wanted to avenge him took the initiative to come to Noah’s territory.
For the same reason, Rafar’s widow is here, and this is also the territory of the golden dragon, so naturally it is also regarded by many dragons with revengeful ideas as a place to gather and discuss before the revenge begins.
Stimulated by anger, some metal dragons gave up their transformation and descended directly into the Aldis Mountains in their strongest form.
Therefore, after the elf half-dragon girl saw that dragons often entered Noah’s territory in their true form, she naturally had some bad guesses.
Because the Metal Dragons would only gather spontaneously when something big happened. Even for friendly exchanges on weekdays, they would go in humanoid form, so people who were not aware of the situation would not know that this was a Dragon gathering.
The dragon’s activity also caused many related rumors to spread outside the mountains. Too many adventurer groups carrying out missions in the mountains saw the majestic figure of the dragon.
This triggered changes that Noah had never expected. As the lord of the Aldis Mountains, his reputation was pushed to a new height.
Although no adventurer has ever seen Noah in person, now in any tavern, big or small, in the city of Elisim, you can see guys boasting about the Dragon Lord.
In the eyes of uninformed outsiders, the increasing number of extremely active dragon sources in the Aldis Mountains must be the holy dragon Noah who rules over thousands of miles of mountains and rivers.
This holy dragon summoned many of its kind for unknown reasons. From this, we can infer that this holy dragon holds a very important position in the dragon clan, which further solidifies his name as the holy dragon.
To be honest, Noah, who holds the title of Holy Dragon, is still quite blushing and shy in front of his peers, who are basically his elders.
However, in the face of an event like the fall of the silver dragon, the respectful titles given to the dragon by mere mortals are naturally trivial matters that can be ignored.
In comparison, the ancient dragon that was about to descend attracted more attention from the metal dragons that had gathered together.
Only the arrival of dragons of this level can preside over a meeting with many elderly dragons present, and can track down the murderer who may have escaped to other worlds.
“Lord Naberius will be here soon.”
As the local lord, Noah, who is just a young dragon, also received the latest news that he can go with a group of old dragons to welcome the ancient dragon that is about to come.
In such a situation, even Noah had to go with the flow. No matter how much he disliked his humanoid form, he had to change, but he didn’t have to maintain it for a long time.
Because many of our kindred move in a powerful posture when they are angry, ready for revenge at any time.
The last ancient dragon to descend was from the silver dragon branch. He was a handsome young man dressed as a bard with a harp and bagpipes, and looked quite romantic and handsome.
If a dragon had not introduced Noah and said that this was the ancient dragon, Noah would not have believed that this was the ancient dragon.
