The natural empire of ocean dragons

Chapter 185 The Battle of the Five Armies
This group of old men and women, such as Lao Ma, must be more stable than this group of children. The Eagle King brought them to Attilan just to arrange a safe mission for these old seniors without having to go to the battlefield.

Faced with this group of seniors who relied on their old age, the Eagle King had no way to persuade them not to go, but he could not explicitly prevent the seniors from contributing to the great cause of Druidry. The Eagle King was thin-skinned, and the seniors were able to squeeze him out with just a few words. Speechless.

But Attilan was different. The Eagle King knew that he was always thick-skinned and full of evil ideas, but he didn't expect Attilan to come up with a win-win solution.

The children all went back to class, and Attilan said to the seniors with a smile:
"Seniors, you have also seen the situation just now. Today's children also have a very strong sense of collective druid honor, and they are clamoring to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy."

"But they have only learned so much knowledge. If you let them go up recklessly, wouldn't they lose their lives in vain? I created this second logistics support corps just because I hope the seniors can keep an eye on these little guys."

"At the same time, don't be stingy with the druid knowledge you have. While ensuring logistics and transportation, try to improve the children as much as possible. The safety of the children depends on the seniors."

The old man waved his pipe, his strong body full of muscles.

"As long as we are here, even if all our old arms and legs are dead, these children will not hurt a hair."

An old man covered in tiger skin revealed an old tooth that was half missing and full of chips.

"By the way, you... have practiced some secret technique, and actually restored it to the state of your prime. You can use it for your brothers and sisters. You can restore the posture of your prime, and we can actually go to the battlefield."

"I haven't fought with anyone in 50 years. I'm afraid that my old bones will fall apart. You have developed such a great secret technique and you don't tell me. What do you mean? Are you friends enough?"

Old man Ma said cheerfully:

"This is not me, it's Xiaolong's credit. I just developed a secret technique to efficiently utilize Xiaolong's life magic power, which can keep me in the prime of life before the life magic power is exhausted."

"The disadvantage is that you need to continue to replenish the dragon's magic power. It's okay if you don't fight. Once you fight, I estimate that it will return to its original appearance in half an hour at most."

"I just happened to bring a secret scroll that records my research during this period. Take it and read it!"

Lao Ma was able to study this secret technique of restoring youthfulness because he obtained Attilan's magic power. He only used the effect of Attilan's magic power.

Strictly speaking, this cannot be regarded as a complete secret technique.

Without the special magic power of Attilan, this secret technique of returning to youth is just a piece of waste paper. Even if you wipe your butt, you will find the bark paper too hard.

If Attilan became a legendary druid, the water of life he condensed would not only return everyone to their youth, but also allow them to live for hundreds of more years. Unfortunately, everyone is about to die.

My teeth are not good and I can't bite the big pie thrown by the old man.

The tiger-skinned old man waved his hand casually.

"I don't care about living an extra 100 years. Just tell me, with this secret technique, can I fight the enemy happily again?"

The old man frowned and said with some embarrassment:

"Theoretically, it's possible, but the dragon needs to provide a lot of magic power. Otherwise, if you transform back in the middle of the fight, you'll be dead."

Attilan waved his hand directly.

"No problem. It's my honor to be able to let my seniors spend the last part of their lives with high quality. Lao Ma, you should tell me your seniors' needs earlier."

"The water of life I can provide is limited. I can only ensure that the seniors can resume their daily activities in their prime. If we want to fight, I may only be able to guarantee one senior."

"do not know……"

"Let Old Hu take the lead. We are getting older and our mentality has changed. We are not as keen on fighting as he is. Old Hu guarantees our combat effectiveness. If we and the children are in danger, let him take the lead."

"It just satisfies his wish to die in battle."

A druid's wish is to die in battle. Why did such a good berserker find himself in the druid profession?
"give it to me!"

These are seniors who have been immersed in the druid profession for hundreds of years. Most of their levels are around level 10. Even if they are old and lack energy, their combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.

Although Attilan's magic power is only enough for them to maintain their daily activities, at a critical moment, they can still perform a sure-kill move that they have mastered over hundreds of years, and it is still the most powerful.

Otherwise, Attilan would not be able to trust the children to them.

Let them be in charge of the food road. The only possible danger is the distance from Huangsha Pass to the grassland. After all, the grassland is the territory that has just been captured from the jackals.

There is a long stretch of yellow sand outside Huangsha Pass. The few cactus that are vaguely visible along the way cannot provide any help to most druid spells. The only one that has an increase is the earth element.

Plants and animals can become symbols of druids, naturally because druids can get the most power from them. If they rely on the earth element, why not just become an elemental mage?
Attilan gave each of the old druids a jar of sea dragon blood wine with water of life added to it. The experienced old man and woman only took a brief sip.

After understanding the effects of supplements, they began to study the secrets of youthfulness of Old Man Ma.

The old lady who had just wished Old Man Tiger an early death in battle frowned and finished reading the scroll.

"Old man Ma, your secret technique is too rough. If you had told me earlier, you wouldn't have wasted so much precious life water."

The old man smoked his pipe and sneered at this.

"Tell yourself, how many times have I invited you back to the forest as guests? I promised you all in the letter, but which one of you has really come back? If Master Gaige hadn't gotten married, I think you would have died and wouldn't have come back, right? !”

The old men and women were a little embarrassed. In person, they accepted the guidance of the Bear Man like the Eagle King and the Wine Girl, and went out to explore the world with confidence.

They were ambitious and said that they would cultivate a forest like the Bearman Forest to prove their Druid attainments. As a result, it was pretty good that the old man and the old woman came back alive.

In the process of guarding the forest, some people were regarded by humans as evil wizards entrenched in the forest and hindering their normal lives, and adventurers were recruited to kill them.

Those who are still alive now and above level 10 have become the masters of a forest. After they have their own business, they naturally cannot come back often. They are used to being uncles and cannot be grandchildren anymore.

As for those old druids who were below level 10 but lived to the end of their lives because of caution, they naturally had no shame in seeing their former friends, alone, or with two or three apprentices, huddled in a small forest.

Even if you are not at level 18 and cannot achieve the effect of having a long-lived body that changes your lifespan from one year to ten years, it does not mean that the druid is not trying other means to extend his lifespan.

Otherwise, more than 100 years have passed, and the life span of human beings is shorter than that of horses and centaurs. These old druids should all be dead. It is not only the life-extending secrets of old men and horses that are criticized by them.

Even Attilan's use of water of life to brew sea dragon blood wine was judged by the old druids as not being sophisticated enough. If brewed according to the method they brainstormed, they should be able to get a second old guy to restore his combat effectiveness.

But they don't plan to do this. Old Tiger can handle the battle alone. After living for more than 100 years, they are becoming more and more afraid of death and cherish the remaining few years.

Now that they have the opportunity to regain their youth, they naturally hope to make up for their past regrets.

Especially when they heard that Old Man Ma actually had a son who was about to be born, some old druids couldn't sit still and couldn't let Old Man Ma stand out.

Of course, they couldn't give birth to a child by themselves like Lao Ma. They wanted to use their regained consciousness to find a suitable successor.

Why did they send all the orphans they collected here? It wasn't because they were old and didn't have the energy to train them. The generation of druids they trained when they were young were even more unreliable.

What they have achieved today is all because of the Bear Man's guidance, but the children they raised are not as hard-working as they once were, or their hearts are not as hard-hearted as the Bear Man.

When a child cries or makes a fuss, the training that should have involved sweating and feeling pain is lost, which naturally leads to the lack of talent among the Druids of the younger generation.

A guy with this kind of virtue would be sent to the forest and the bears wouldn't even look at him.

The second generation who returned home in despair naturally gradually distanced themselves from the Bearman Forest.

In the end, the blood-stained Wither School attracted many members.

Now seeing Xiaolong, the successor recognized by the bear people, especially Attilan, who provided them with the potion to restore youth, and Attilan also showed considerable enthusiasm and curiosity about the situation of the druids in the north.

For a while, they all came up with the idea of ​​handing over the forest they had carved out to Attilan to manage, and to hand it over to their disciples. Maybe a few years after their death, the forest would become human lumber camps and farmland. .

But it's different when it's left to Attilan. The forest can last for at least hundreds of years, and the distance between their forests is actually not that far apart, but there are many human villages and towns in between.

This resulted in their forests being unable to stay together.

If it were Attilan, there would definitely be a way to connect their forests together and become a Druid forest that was not inferior to the Ursine forest.

After understanding the location of their forest, Attilan was surprised to find that it happened to be at the eastern and northern borders of the Northern Kingdom that Attilan wanted to occupy.

If he controls those human towns, he can indeed connect the forest together by migrating the towns, and then connect it to the forest south of the Valley Kingdom.

A huge C-shaped forest surrounding the lake of the Swamp Wurm will appear on this continent, and the only remaining development direction for the Swamp Wurm is to go eastward.

Taking down the dwarf and human kingdoms and connecting his inner sea and outer sea, the swamp dragon at that time was probably unstoppable.

Fortunately, the dwarves and humans in the east are much more competitive than those in the west. Even the halflings are from the east. A hero who is as tall as a human has appeared.

Attilan wondered if the feng shui in the east was better, so the swamp dragon insisted on moving eastward, but was blocked by the two kingdoms for hundreds of years.

Strictly speaking, for hundreds of years, the major kingdoms in the east were continuously defeated. After being oppressed to the limit, the humans and dwarves who were forced to unite broke out with amazing fighting power.

In a word, Attilan's [-] elites couldn't defeat the coalition of dwarves and humans. This was the news he got from the tiger population, in order to maintain the army's combat effectiveness and logistical supplies.

They opened up the opportunity to commoners to become mages. Although they only learned part of the knowledge that was helpful for agriculture, they could still be regarded as mages.Over time, many practical spells have been figured out. The Ministry of Spells, which is almost entirely composed of civilian mages, has begun to show its fangs in the political arena of the human kingdom.

Yes, just like Attilan used druids to farm the land, humans were forced to use mages to farm the land, but what is a mage? It's a wizard!
Can Master Fa be a magic farmer for the rest of his life?
That's impossible!
But the Minister of the Ministry of Magic is still an aristocratic mage. Even if the means of casting spells are mediocre, the concept of aristocrats being superior to others is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and these civilian mages dare not speak out.

Do you know how unhappy Attilan was when he saw such a big thunder in the east, but he couldn't detonate it? Detonating this thunder would only make the swamp dragon cheaper.

The stronger the swamp dragon is, the more Attilan will occupy the entire continent and the plan to establish a natural empire will be unable to be realized. Now the swamp dragon is so strong that Attilan can't think of a suitable way to deal with it.

If the Swamp Wurm expands its territory, Attilan will really be unable to play.

The only way he can think of now is to wait!

There is a big gap between an eight-hundred-year-old ancient dragon and a two-year-old dragon, but the gap between a two-thousand-year-old ancient dragon and a thousand-and-two-year-old ancient dragon is not that big.

Who makes dragons like to sleep? Attilan spends all the time other dragons are sleeping inward. When he was 2000 years old, the power he gained through practice was not much worse than that of the swamp dragon who had been practicing for [-] years.

According to the old fishman's vague memory, the Swamp Yaron doesn't particularly like to sleep. He only sleeps for at most two to three years at a time, and he also practices in his sleep.

Attilan would have to work harder if he wanted to kill him.

The Ursine once said that it only took him 400 years to achieve what the Swamp Wurm had achieved in 800 years. He believed that Attilan, who was more talented than him, could surpass him in the same 400 years.

Attilan couldn't drink any of the Ursine's chicken soup, because there was no chicken in the chicken soup, it was just razor blades, which hurt his throat.

After finally appeasing the members of the Second Logistics Supply Corps, which was full of old, weak, sick and disabled, Attilan only hoped that there would be no pregnant women.

Looking at the eyes of these old druids who had regained their youthful vitality, Attilan felt that it was really possible for them to bring out a few children.

Dragging his exhausted body back to Green Scale Town, Attilan had not gone back to rest when he received information from Bighorn Town. The Dwarf King sent a griffin knight to convey a message, hoping to meet Attilan in Water Cellar Town. .

Attilan and the Dwarf King have already met once. The Dwarf King has a simple personality and really treats Attilan as a good friend, even though he is a giant dragon.

Such enthusiasm made Attilan feel a little embarrassed for cheating him.

When he thought about the dwarf silver ring who had the dream of becoming the dwarf king and was still working hard to build roads for him, Attilan could only harden his heart.

The dwarf king is a good man, but he is not a suitable king, otherwise the dwarf kingdom would not be managed in a mess by him, and dwarves would need to work outside the country to support their families.

Many dwarves go from the Dwarf Kingdom to the Western Region of the Northern Kingdom. There are many mineral veins in the Western Region, and it is very common to hire a dwarf forging master to help.

For example, Yin Ring has a cousin. Their family is called Gold Mine. As you can tell from the name, their family is best at mining gold. The whole cousin's family is helping the Western Territory to mine gold mines.

This time the dwarf king suddenly requested a meeting at such a critical moment. Attilan suspected that the dwarf king had received the news and was preparing to send troops. After all, fire treasures were very suitable for dwarves.

Attilan bought equipment from the dwarf kingdom, and the dwarves also received food, which gave the dwarf king the confidence to expand his army. Otherwise, how could such a large dwarf kingdom only have so few troops.

In fact, there is a frost giant clan living on the frost plateau in the northwest of the dwarf kingdom. This clan and the dwarf kingdom are feuding. It is unknown why the two countries started fighting.

Anyway, within a few decades, they will start a war.

If there was no threat from foreign enemies, how could it be possible that the system that requires mastery of the gods to descend to earth to inherit the throne could be passed down for more than 2000 years.

Attilan could only eat some pan-fried pork chops, braised pork ribs, and sweet and sour pork ribs, and then set off to see the dwarf king.

This guy didn't give in at all. He didn't send an envoy to Attilan until he arrived in Water Cellar Town.

Sure enough, when Attilan arrived at Water Cellar Town, the Dwarf King immediately stepped forward excitedly and said:

"Dragon Lord, let's send out troops together. My thousand dwarf heavy armored infantry and thousand sheep knights have marched into the desert. After taking the treasure, each of us will make half of the magic weapons!"

Attilan raised his eyebrows and said calmly:

"I didn't expect the Dwarf King to be so well-informed. Even I just found out that the Dwarf King has already deployed his troops and started attacking."

The dwarf king laughed.

"Actually, I only received the news yesterday. Then I immediately summoned the soldiers and marched to the dungeon as quickly as possible. I had to occupy a suitable position first."

"Otherwise, after the treasure is obtained by them, it will be almost impossible to snatch the treasure from the army. Dragon Lord, you must make a decision as soon as possible."

Attilan pretended to think, and the dwarf king looked at him anxiously.

"Dwarf King, I agree."

With the strength of the dwarf kingdom, it might be possible to capture the treasure. Even if not, Attilan would not be at a loss. Anyway, it only needs to complete the task of covering the bearmen.

Suddenly, the dwarf king smiled shyly.

"That's good. We dwarves can send out more troops, but this food...maybe...we need the Dragon Lord's help to solve it."

"no problem!"

Leaving more manpower to continue production, Attilan can quickly mobilize them to the desert if things go wrong. The question now is whether the grassland has the ability to support tens of thousands of troops.

It was impossible to wait until troops were needed, and Attilan would start to assemble from within the kingdom. From Bighorn Town to the desert hinterland of the underground city, the march alone might take a month.

This is already the fastest speed without considering logistics.

It's so troublesome to send out an army.

Unless you don't bring food and go to war hungry.

In the harsh environment of the desert, there is no way to defeat the enemy with food.

"Then I will send out three thousand troops, half tauren and half centaurs, half men and horses, all wearing dragon armor. Do you think it is suitable, King Dwarf?"

"That's enough, that's enough. In addition to the 2000 people we sent, we can also send out another thousand heavy-armed warriors and argali knights, as well as gryphon knights, also 1000 people. Just for their food, we need the dragon master's help. .”

Attilan smiled and agreed. No wonder he only dispatched 2000 people. It seemed that the situation in the dwarf kingdom had not improved. A war exposed their food shortage problem.

As Attilan's control over the halfling town deepens, especially after he teaches the dwarves the technology of growing apples in the mountains and making wine, it is believed that the amount of food produced by the dwarves will further decline.

Since they have joined forces with the dwarves, the druids do not need to go to the front line for the time being. It is their job to introduce water veins to transform the soil environment of the grassland and turn the grassland into a grain-producing area.

Even if the grain yield of the grassland is low, it is better than transporting grain from the wetland.

When food is transported by land, half of it will be eaten by the transport team.

After marching into the desert, Attilan and the six thousand elites of the dwarves quickly captured an oasis under the command of the blue dragon as a stronghold, and began to dig downwards to enter the underground city.

Then Attilan learned very bad news from the gryphon knight responsible for high-altitude reconnaissance.

An army appeared in the south and captured another oasis stronghold under Blue Dragon. Judging from their appearance and equipment, they should be the army of the Elf Kingdom in the south!
Attilan narrowed his eyes slightly. He did not expect that the Water Elf Kingdom would actually interfere with a fire treasure. Although the Water Elf Kingdom was also a terrestrial elf, their business was all at sea.

What use would a fire treasure be to them?

Wait, it seems to work. Although it is a naval battle, fire attacks have always been a classic method. Especially magic warships are made of wood and will naturally be burned by flames.

"Dragon Lord, the elf suddenly intervened, what do you think?"

"How many are they?"

"According to the results of the investigation, their number is not large, probably no more than 1000. They are probably just joining in the fun, or they don't want the treasure to fall into anyone's hands."

"We only need to interfere with us contenders for a period of time, and the treasure will disappear again. We can only wait for the treasure to appear again next time."

"Go underground first, and then talk about it after meeting the elves."

The speed of digging underground city passages is very fast, and he is worthy of being a professional mining dwarf.

The first war was coming sooner than Attilan could have imagined.

As soon as they entered the underground, the army's formation had not yet been set up, when they met the blue dragon and his family. It seemed that they had just come down.

Before Attilan and the others could fight, the elf army emitting blue magic aura emerged from behind the mountain.

In the end, it was the owners of the dungeon who detonated the battlefield, a group of fire gnomes who frantically threw bombs at them.

A melee started from then on.
