Blue Dragon Emperor: Lord of Thunder

Chapter 77 Goodbye
On the twelfth day of the month of recovery, eleven days had passed since the Battle of Botilon. The final decisive battle ended with the rebels in the north winning, the Duke of Boren retreating to the south, and Lamington's reinforcements withdrawing.

A huge convoy of noble convoys moved slowly towards the southern province of Boren.

These usually proud and noble nobles now have a sad face, as if they don't have much confidence in this journey.

But as nobles, they must obey the orders of their lord, the Grand Duke of Bolun, and leave the capital of Bolun, where they have lived for generations and lived for tens of hundreds of years.

The few nobles who privately decided to stay in the capital to serve the rebellious king were all convicted of treason by their young grand duke and hanged on the city wall of the capital.

Riding on a horse with the blood of a monster, Ren put away the tiredness in his eyes and looked at the soldiers of the Royal Guard who were walking towards him.

"Marquis Rennes, Grand Duke please go over immediately."

"understood."

Ren clamped his legs, rode to the royal carriage, got off the horse, handed the reins to the guards, boarded the carriage and walked into the carriage.

The remaining Marquis and Earls in the capital sat in the carriage, waiting in a dull atmosphere for their Grand Duke to announce the reason for summoning them.

After Ren sat down, several nobles came one after another, and Venier Gogg, who was wearing a crown on his head, spoke and called a temporary meeting of the nobles.

The content of the meeting was nothing more than to appease the nobles' emotions, and to formulate defense and counterattack plans in advance after reaching the southern border.

The meeting didn't go well, as Vinier had expected, but all he can do now is to be encouraging.

"Let's end here today. After you go back, try to appease the middle and lower nobles. This kind of life won't last long, and the rebels will definitely..."

"Your Majesty the Grand Duke!" The knight who rushed in interrupted Venier's speech, and said, "A large number of eastern border rebels are found in front of us!"

The atmosphere in the carriage was suffocated, and it was so quiet that only the bumping sound of the carriage was left.

"How far is the distance, how many people are there, can we bypass it in advance?" Vinier first recovered and asked calmly.

If the number is not too large, the strength of the royal guards is enough to defeat the enemy. The nobles in the convoy are also powerful fighters or spellcasters, and it is not impossible to win against ordinary troops.

"Nearly 2 million people."

The carriage fell silent again, even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.

There were originally two standing corps in Wangduzhong, but they were both transferred to the north to fight against the rebels.

There are only [-] royal guards and [-] ordinary soldiers guarding the entire imperial convoy.

And their enemy is the Eastern Rebel Legion with nearly 2 people.

Even though the Royal Guards were strong, they still only had 1000 people. The nearly [-] times difference in numbers was enough to smooth out the lack of soldiers in rank.

"The rebels are marching towards us, and they should have discovered our location."

Vinier's face was gloomy, firmness and determination flashed in his eyes, and he maintained his superficial composure and said: "Notify all ministries and prepare for the battle."

"Yes!"

After the knight retreated, Vinier raised his head and glanced at the nobles in the carriage.

The calmness he showed made the nobles recognize him a little more, and they all looked up at their lord at this moment.

"Everyone," Vinier said seriously, "it's time to show the glory and bravery of the nobility."

Vinier drew out the saber at his waist: "I will be with you."

The noble convoy quickly formed a circle, allowing the soldiers to rely on the carriage to fight and defend. Even the servants took up weapons and stood tremblingly with the soldiers.

The eastern rebel regiment quickly surrounded the entire convoy, and then immediately launched an attack.

Relying on the powerful royal guards, the aristocratic convoy that gathered and shrunk the defensive circle barely resisted the attack of the eastern rebels for the time being.

Because of the existence of several median mages among the nobles, they can even try to counterattack the eastern rebels while defending.

But as time passed, the strength of the defending soldiers was gradually exhausted, and the spiritual power of the spellcasters was gradually exhausted, while their enemies seemed to be endless.

Ren squeezed out the last bit of mental power, forcibly released a big fireball technique, blasting more than a dozen enemies to pieces, and then forced himself to look at the defense line that was crossed by the enemy.

Even Vinier Gogg raised his long sword to fight the enemies who had crossed the line of defense not far away.

Ren gritted his teeth, condensing the newly recovered sliver of mental power to continue casting spells, but fell into a backlash because of failure.

Clutching his needle-like painful head, Ren gave a wry smile, never expecting to fall down in this way.

Just when he was about to start recalling the past in his mind, he suddenly heard a particularly tragic sound of fighting.

"A sound from outside? Is it reinforcements from the southern province?"

Ren looked around and found that the enemy seemed to have given up attacking them. After killing the rest of the enemies, the nobles in the carriage circle couldn't help but ran to the edge of the line of defense and looked out.

What they saw fighting with the eastern border rebels was not the imaginary reinforcements from the southern border, but a group of fully armed monsters in armor.

The three-to-four-meter-tall Tauren holds a huge axe, which can easily take away the lives of several enemies with a single swing of the axe.

The bloodthirsty and brutal Gnoll killed the enemies, and even took out their eyeballs and chewed them in their mouths.

The short and sturdy armored bears are like iron cans, making it impossible for the enemy to attack. At the same time, the mace in his hand can kill an enemy every time he swings it.

The mage in the Eastern Rebel Army wanted to cast a spell, but was swept by a white dragon breathing extremely cold air, and had to cast a protective spell instead.

"dragon!"

All the nobles exclaimed.

Since the last time they saw the blue dragon Long En falling from the sky in the capital, they soon saw a white dragon again.

The exclamation of the nobles was not over yet, a real red dragon with stubby limbs and a fat body flew out of the monster army, breathing red flames and smashing heavily into the rebel army, rolling its body and crushing it back and forth.

Another dragon!

This is already the third dragon these nobles have seen in just a few months. When did real dragons become so common?

The joining of the two real dragons completely defeated the last fighting spirit of the rebels in the eastern border, and they put down their weapons and fled in all directions under the massacre of monsters.

After the situation was completely controlled by the monster army, the nobles hiding behind the line of defense formed by the carriages looked at each other, and finally looked at their lord, the bloody Grand Duke Vinier.

Just when Vinier was hesitating whether to send people to contact the monsters who had saved his and others' lives, a huge shadow fell from the sky, shaking the earth for a while.

As the smoke and dust cleared, a huge blue dragon head scanned the human nobles within the line of defense, grinning, showing ferocious fangs and jokingly said: "It's really fate, everyone, we meet again."

The nobles in the defensive line recalled the operation of the blue dragon in the central square of the capital, and they couldn't help but feel a chill down their backs.
