Azeroth has no trolls

Chapter 232 The dragon clan asks for help

With additional military spending from Zin Aessarin and the lifting of the conscription quota by the emperor, the Despot of Zul'Gurub finally mobilized a well-equipped and large army to fight against the rebellion in Stranglethorn Vale. In the midst of a clearing operation against the gangsters.

Every few days, Xavius ​​would receive battle reports from Tiberius, the despot of Zulgra. Every battle report was a victory. Indeed, in front of the prepared imperial army, all the rebels were not afraid at all.

But Xavius ​​also became wary of the Despot Tiberius. The legions under his command gained experience in this counter-insurgency operation, and the decrees that were once used to restrain the local noble troops were also changed because of Azsarat. The opening was opened and lifted.

Tiberius can expand his army at will according to the needs of the actual war. With sufficient troops in hand, Xavius ​​cannot guarantee whether the other party will have some inappropriate thoughts.

The garrison in the city of Zin Aesalin has not experienced the tempering of war for a long time. The last time was about 1000 years ago.

It is self-evident what will happen to an army that has been in peace for a long time when faced with an army that has been tempered by war when there is not much difference in equipment between the two sides.

Bandits that are fixed in one place are easy to deal with, but bandits that spread out are more difficult to eradicate.

The group of bandits who had broken out of Stranglethorn Valley had spread the rebellion to several nearby provinces by instigating and coercing them, causing headaches for the local governors and nobles.

They all asked Zin Aesalin for a decree to lift the limit on the number of troops. They said that they did not need financial support from the imperial capital. They only needed to collect less taxes and they could support the troops themselves.

Faced with the current situation of rebellions in the empire, Xavius, after discussing with several of his staff, finally decided to abolish the troop restriction law. He personally went to Azshara and explained to her the reason for doing so. The reason was that Azshara also patiently listened to Xavius's report, thought about it carefully and agreed.

Since then, nobles of all sizes throughout the empire have received a new decree from the imperial capital, "On the Abolition of the Regulations on Restrictions on Soldiers."

"This approach is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst."

After Dasa learned the news, he sighed deeply. Since his resurrection, he has sighed as much as he had in his entire life.

The whole of Azeroth now gives him a sense of strangeness. All the old friends he once made have disappeared. Many of the wild demigods can only be seen in the Emerald Dream. I haven't even met him in person.

Just when Daza was looking out the window at the scenery of Zin Aesalin in the library and thinking about what he was going to do next, a figure wearing a black hooded cloak stood at the door.

The sudden appearance of this guy aroused Dasa's vigilance.

"Salute to you, His Majesty the Great First Emperor."

A young voice came from under the cloak.

"Who are you?"

Daza stared at the cloaked man.

"My name is Korestraz, His Majesty the First Emperor, and the Dragon Legion needs your help."

As he spoke, the cloaked man took off the hood on his head, and a dragon head covered with red scales and two horns appeared in front of Dasa.

"Red dragon? What happened to the dragon army?"

Dasa recognized the origin of the other party, and his expression became serious. What happened to make these proud dragons condescend to ask him for help.

"The Black Dragon Legion has become solitary recently. My queen thinks something may have happened to them, but many of the spies we sent out have not brought back the news, so I am here to ask for your help. "

Korestraz briefly described the problem he encountered to Dasa.

After hearing this, Dasa also became thoughtful.

As early as in the Emerald Dream, he had heard Ysera mention the speculation about an abnormality in Neltharion. Has this abnormality now expanded to the entire Black Dragon Legion?
Originally, he wanted to help Azshara resolve the internal affairs of the Azeroth Empire before dealing with Neltharion's affairs, but now it seems that he has to deal with the Black Dragon Legion's affairs first. .

"I know that your kingdom also has a lot of things to deal with. After all, many problems among the mortals over the years have required you to correct them one by one. However, the situation of the Black Dragon Legion, especially the issue of the Earth Guardian, is more important to this world. "

As a younger generation of red dragons, Korestrasz has naturally seen the changes in the great empire of Azeroth.

From prosperity to gradual decline, the most obvious feature is that the entire empire's leadership began to spread an inexplicable arrogance and a rigid and rotten cognition.

Although Korestrasz heard the stories of his predecessors about the mortal empire and the heroic mortal coalition fighting side by side with the dragons on the Storm Cliffs.

But the mortals he saw now had nothing left over from their ancestors.

It was hard for him to imagine that there really was a force composed of mortal coalition forces that took on the main force to attack Ulduar City; this is really an unimaginable picture for him now.

"I still know the priority of the matter. I'm going to prepare. We will set off later. Do you know the location of that guy from Neltharion?"

As Dasa spoke, he took out a new piece of paper and started writing with the ink pen in his hand.

He wanted to leave a farewell letter to Azshara.

"I don't know the whereabouts of the Earth Guardian. Maybe the queen will have news about him. After we leave in a while, we will go to the Wyrmrest Temple in the north. There is also the Dragon Academy for you mortals over there."

Korestrasz shook his head and said that he did not know the location of Neltharion.

"Okay, let's go."

After Dasa finished writing the letter left to Azshara, he looked at Korestrasz.

"His Majesty the First Emperor, how do you think we should go?"

Korestrasz asked Dasa how he was going to leave.

If you want to use teleportation magic to go to the Wyrmrest Temple in the north from here, you can't do it. Eludis Palace has the blessing of the moon god Elune, and any space magic is prohibited here.

If he decided to change back to his original form and fly over, the mage towers and anti-aircraft weapons towering all over the city of Zin Aessarin would shoot him down on the spot.

"So, you sneaked in?"

After listening to the red dragon's explanation, Dasa looked at him in confusion.

Doesn't he understand that the connection between the empire and the dragon clan has become so weak?Isn’t there a good link like the Dragon Academy?
"Urgent situation."

Korestraz answered with a reason that was not a reason.

As for whether it is really economical, only he himself knows.

In the end, Dasa acted as a guarantee and left Eludis Palace with this reckless young red dragon. The two of them were also found out by Xavius ​​not long after they left the palace.

"A mysterious man in a long cloak?"

After listening to the intelligence report from his subordinates, Xavius ​​guessed the identity of the mysterious man.

This is the first time for Korestrasz to come to Zin Aessarin. This mortal city is indeed worthy of its reputation as a city of miracles. Everything here is extremely attractive to this young red dragon.

He was somewhat fascinated by the bustling city.

"When you're done, you can stay here as long as you want." Daza glanced at Korestrasz, who was looking around, took his arm and hurried towards the city of Zin Essarin Go outside.

This red dragon broke into the empire without reporting it. If he didn't have this special person to guarantee him, it would still take some effort for him to leave the imperial capital.

Korestrasz became more motivated after hearing what Dasa said.

The two of them walked very quickly, and took the city's commuter transportation to get out of the city at noon that day. Korestraz was also sighing at the huge area of ​​​​the imperial capital, while changing back to own prototype.

"It's just a red dragon, not a blue dragon, so I don't have the power to use the well water. I can only fly there with you."

"It doesn't matter, there's no rush for this moment anyway."

Daza carefully looked at the huge red dragon in front of him.

"His Majesty the First Emperor, please ride up and I will carry you directly to Longmian Temple."

Korestras eleven Dasa climbed onto his back, and before setting off Alexstrasza emphasized that he should respect Dasa.

"Okay, Koresh. You can just call me Dasa. Forget the title of First Emperor."

Dasa himself still could not accept being called the First Emperor.

Kores nodded, and the dragon wings behind him moved tentatively, and then started to flap.

Once, twice, with the flapping of the dragon's wings, a large amount of dust was blown up, and then after the third flapping, the huge red dragon body rose into the sky and gradually began to fly.

The trace of the red dragon streaking across the sky naturally attracted the attention of Zin Aissalin below.

However, after confirming that the other party did not threaten the imperial capital, he simply recorded it.

Riding Korestraz on the clouds in the sky reminded Dasa of the time when he rode a pterodactyl to compete with Roca in the sky.

"The wind will be very cold in the sky. I'm sorry, I forgot to remind you to bring an extra cloak."

While flying, Korestras suddenly remembered something and apologized to Dasa immediately.

"Ha, no need. I'm just going to cool off. I'm not a weak guy."

Dasa said and took a deep breath of the cold wind blowing in his face.

After hearing what Dasa said, Korestraz said nothing more. After flying in the sky for several hours, the young red dragon had to come down to the ground to rest.

They landed in Mount Hyjal.

"It's Mount Hyjal. I haven't been here for a long time. I remember the deer in this forest taste good. I'll go hunt one."

Dasa recognized this place and immediately prepared to make some hunting tools to go hunting.

"No need, I went to Dragon Academy before setting off, and the scholars there gave me some supplies."

Korestraz stopped Dasa's actions, and he magically pulled out a large food bag from behind.

As the pocket was opened, there were fragrant bread, various roasted nuts, and several pieces of specially stewed meat.Seeing that there were ready supplies, Dasa gave up his plan to hunt in Mount Hyjal.

An elf and a dragon just sat in this oak forest and had a leisurely meal.

After a short rest, they embarked on the journey again, but this time Korestraz opened the magic portal, which could greatly save them the distance to the Wyrmrest Temple.

Passing through the portal of azure light, the originally gentle breeze turned into a bit of a biting cold wind, and it was this biting cold wind that let Daza know that he was already in Northrend at this time.

"Let's keep moving. Dasa."

Korestrasziah passed through the space portal and transformed back into dragon form. He once again invited Dasa to ride on his back.

Once again, in an anxious hurry, they finally arrived at the Longmian Temple before Ms. Bai and Lan Zi reached the sky.

This high tower just stands on this snowfield. Under this white snow is the burial place where the corpses of the dragon clan of past generations are buried.

In the southwest area of ​​​​this tower, there is a special area lined with spiers, which is the Dragon Academy that was originally established by the Comanche team.

"Ah, you are finally back, Korestraz. Well, good job, come on. The queen and others are already waiting for you."

When Korestraz was carrying Dasa to the Dragonblight area, a red dragon flew towards him from the temple. When he saw Dasa riding on Kores' back, he knew that the other party had finished. Completed the task assigned to him by the Red Dragon Queen.

"Let's go, Dasa."

Korestras said and took Dasa towards the tower.

This tower had not yet been built when Dasa was still here. At that time, there was only a snowfield here, but now a tower reaching the sky has been erected here.

This tower was extremely tall even for the size of a giant dragon, at least much larger than the Dragon Sleeping Temple in his memory.

"Welcome back, old friend."

Alexstrasza kept her red dragon form and looked at Daza who was carried into the temple by Korestrasz.

"Hey, I haven't seen you for a while. It seems that you are all doing well."

Daza said, jumping off the back of Korestrasz, and looked around at the dragon kings in the Wyrmrest Temple.

In addition to Alexitas, Malygos, Lesages, Philak, and Willanoz are all here. What surprised Daza is that the three ancestor dragons and dragon kings can also appear in Dragon Sleep. Temple.

"Ysera needs to stay in the Emerald Dream, while that guy from Nozdormu is sorting out the time stream."

Malygos looked at Dasa and explained to him the reason why the two dragon kings had not arrived.

"How does it feel to come back alive? Irudikon went to follow the traces of that guy from Neltharion. He said that the earth has been really not peaceful recently. Maybe it's because of this that the group of black dragons are so busy."

Lesages also informed Dasa of the whereabouts of Irudicon.

"It's better to tell me about Neltharion's situation. When I was on the other side of the veil, I saw some fragments about his future. It's not good news."

Daza thought it would be best to find out where Neltharion had gone.

Then, the most important thing is to find a way to resist the thoughts of those ancient gods.
