Blue Dragon Emperor: Lord of Thunder

Chapter 66 War Situation

The fast-flying figure of the legendary lich suddenly stopped in mid-air, the soul fire in its eye sockets swayed as if being blown by a strong wind.

Just now, the soul imprint it made on the dragonborn was cracked.

Originally, it sensed the strangeness of Long En, and wanted to secretly arrest him for interrogation after Long En left, but it never thought that this dragonborn was actually a real dragon transformation.

A moment of carelessness allowed the real dragon to escape too far.

It was also because of Ron's escape that the Legendary Lich was sure that Ron knew the secret of "Elemental Final Chapter".

Thinking that the opportunity to fully control and use this peculiar "Elemental Final Chapter" slipped away, and the opportunity to get rid of the lich's madness passed by, the legendary lich couldn't help throwing his head back furiously, his upper and lower jaws opened It opened at an exaggerated angle, tore apart the dry skin and muscles, and let out an angry and sharp scream.

In the sea area near it, on ships and islands, those who were not strong enough exploded their heads in this furious roar, and their red and white brains were glued to the walls or the faces of the people around them, causing quite a riot. confusion.

As for the source of all this, Ron had already climbed to an altitude of tens of thousands of meters with Floris in his hands.

Thinking of being marked with a soul mark by that legendary lich, Ron felt a little annoyed besides his anger.

The powerful strength of the real dragon and the many victories during this period made him a little carried away, and he didn't even pay attention to a few legends.

As a proud true dragon, Ron has no fear in his heart, he is just annoyed at his own weakness, and secretly said in his heart: "When my strength reaches the legendary level, I must come and kill that lich, and by the way, the "Elemental Final Chapter" in his hand "Give it here."

After escaping from the sea area of ​​the Thousand Islands Country, Ron flew straight south, and his plan to visit the Thousand Islands Country fell through.

All the way to the south, day and night, after changing his figure several times to ask for directions, Ron finally flew back to Bolun territory with Floris.

Flying over the northern border of the Principality of Boren, the ruined towns due to the war, the scorched wasteland and woods all made Ron frown.

Before he left Bolun, the battle was far from intense. What happened in the short ten days since he left the Principality of Bolun?
Ron flew to the western border of Polun, and found that the flames of war had also spread here. Although the towns were not destroyed like the northern border, and a large area of ​​land was burned into a piece of red land, it was not much better here.

Large tracts of farmland looked like they had been harvested in advance, and the walled cities were crowded with civilians who had taken refuge.

And those who couldn't hide in the city were driven away by war and hunger. Thousands of civilians gathered into a wave of refugees and ran aimlessly, eating up the bark and grass roots on the way forward like locusts. .

In order to escape the war from the north, these refugees can only go to the south or the western border.

Ron flew over a group of refugees, seeing the gray and thin faces, and the painful and numb eyes, even Floris, who was so excited and noisy all the way, fell silent. .

As a true dragon, Ron originally thought that he would be ignorant of the suffering that happened to humans, but in the end he could only admit that his heart was not turbulent.

Flapping his wings, Ron flew a little faster.

The rejuvenated Blackstone Town gradually drew closer. Ron's wide wingspan hindered the flow of the strong wind, allowing him to land smoothly on the square built on the former ruins in Blackstone Town.

As the huge shadow fell, the civilians around the square knelt down and worshiped Ron.

Ron glanced at his own statue in the middle of the square, put down Floris, and said to the tauren who was kneeling on one knee not far away: "Call Glengo to see me."

Before the tauren set off, Glengo flew over quickly.

Glengo flew up to Ron, knelt down and said, "My great lord, your servants are always at your command."

Ron nodded, and said, "Give me the observation records of the Duchy of Polun's wars over the past few days."

Glengo bowed his head and said, "Yes, great master."

It took out a stack of papyrus that had been prepared and raised it above its head respectfully.

Ron used the dragon's hand to hold the papyrus in front of his eyes, and his eyes quickly scanned the rows of words.

After Curelia left with Vidirpan and Ron, she lost the perfect scout, the true dragon scout, and her understanding of the situation in the civil war in Boren was weakened a lot.

But Glengo formed a scouting force in advance under Ron's order. This team composed of untrained tabby people is not professional, but the inherent talent of the tabby cats makes them still be called Nice scout.

The information they bring back every once in a while is not very important, but at least it will not be blind to the development of the war.

The northern rebels accepted the nobles who had fled from the capital of the King of Boren, and at the suggestion of the fugitive nobles, they actively sought the help of the Kingdom of Fasciti and brought the troops of the Kingdom of Fasciti into the land of the Principality of Boren in the form of hire.

However, the northern rebels were unable to control the Fasciti Kingdom army that entered the territory of Borun, causing the Fasciti army to loot towns after the war, even looting and killing nobles, and then pushing them to rioting refugees or enemies body.

In order to resist the support force of the Faciti Kingdom added by the rebels in the north, the Duke of Boren finally made up his mind to ask his father, the Duke of Lamington, to send troops.

This move caused the eastern provinces, which had been barely safe before, to react fiercely. Under the banner of protecting the country, they blocked the reinforcements sent by the Duke of Lamington from outside the border.

Scraping every inch of land in the eastern border in advance, and overdrawing the development potential of the eastern province in the next ten years, the army under the Marquis who supported the army in the eastern province exploded with impressive strength, and actually defeated the Duchy of Lamington. The reinforcements could not advance an inch.

The Duke of Boren has now imposed heavy taxes to pay Lamington's war rewards. Countless civilians have gone bankrupt and fled under the heavy taxes, but their reinforcements are completely useless in a short time, so that the front of the northern border is advancing all the way. Pushing, the front line has been pressed to the Great Plains of Botilun where the capital of the King of Bolun is located.

Countless wandering refugees added to the chaos and pressure on the Duke of Boren's side from the rear, but they no longer had the extra strength to manage those refugees.

Ron stacked the papyrus and put it in the storage ring, and said to Glengo: "Send my order to let the kobolds and tauren form an army, bring the humans in Blackstone Town, and gather the people in the west. Refugees, the development of my territory needs more subjects."

Glengo understands that more people also means that its master needs a bigger territory.

"Yes, great master." Glengo nodded respectfully, but reminded: "But if we gather the refugees, our food will not be able to support this round of food harvest, and those human nobles have announced that they will no longer sell food to the outside world." .”

Ron said blankly: "They will agree."
