The natural empire of ocean dragons

Chapter 273 The Devil’s Conspiracy

Looking at the serious expressions of Attilan and Odeice, the princess also realized that the smell of sulfur did not seem to be a simple thing. After carefully recalling the situation at that time, she replied:
"It does smell of sulfur. I remember I asked the pharmacist why his medicine could awaken my father. He told me that it was because the sulfur contained special power, but ordinary pharmacists could not activate the power in the sulfur. come out."

"But he is different. He received the guidance of a mysterious pharmacist and mastered a mysterious power. He can use sulfur to stimulate flames. The potion made with this special flame is two to three times more effective than ordinary potions. "

Mysterious apothecary, special flame inspired by sulfur?

This guy is nothing but a devil!
Attilan smiled and narrowed his eyes.

"Princess, I don't know where the mysterious pharmacist is now. He has mastered such a strange secret technique. I very much hope to discuss with him about the use of spells."

Aodai Qisi took out a sun apple from Attilan's dimensional bag and took a bite.

"It shouldn't be up to us to fight against them. Compared with them, our status seems to be even lower."

After all, in the eyes of the gods, the devil just steals the meat on the plate and eats it, while the elemental dragon is a crow who can overturn the table so that they cannot eat a piece of meat, so the gods naturally want to kill the elemental dragon.

"You can't say that. Since we have decided to develop our own power in this world, we cannot let those bed bugs in the sewers steal our things."

"If you are lucky, you can work in a certain god's kingdom, and you may become an immortal."

The princess's pupils shrank, and she clenched her fists nervously and looked at Attilan.

"Devil, what is that? Shouldn't my father's soul go to the kingdom of the god of commerce that he believes in?"

Attilan smiled slightly.

"Mortal souls have three places to go, heaven, underworld, and hell. As for which world you go to, it depends on what you did in the material world."

"Although I hate to tell you this bad news, unfortunately, your father drank the potion refined from the fire of hell. There is a high probability that his soul has been marked by the devil."

Attilan just smiled. The beliefs of mortal kings are generally not very pious. Souls of this quality are always thrown into the underworld to be ground into the most basic soul particles.

"Princess, your soul looks pretty good. There is a possibility of going to the heaven. There is endless bread to eat and endless honey to drink. Reincarnation in the heaven is indeed a good choice."

"You are a princess, and you must know the terrain of the Valley Kingdom. We need you to point out a hidden road to the royal capital. As long as we get to the royal capital, we can easily help you break into the palace and capture the little prince alive."

The princess looked at the dumbfounded Attilan and Odeice in confusion.

"Don't talk about such distant things. It's better to talk about how to defeat my brother now and get the Valley Kingdom back from his hands."

"Poor princess, those guys are much more cruel than the necromancers. They will do their best to pluck out all the power contained in the souls of the mortals who make deals with them in a painful way."

"Since the devil is a very scary existence in your mouth, then my brother's deal with the devil is likely to destroy the Kingdom of the River Valley. Since the devil will not even let go of his soul, then everything in the Kingdom of the River Valley will kneel in the hands of the devil. "

"Don't forget that this world has a very special barrier. We can stay in this world safely because of the existence of the barrier."

"That's right. If they want to come in and harvest the souls of mortals, they really need to break the barrier first. It seems that those guys use the right to harvest souls to make them the vanguard."

The soul particles then return to the material world and become the power that nurtures the newborn.

"When your father dies, his soul will turn into the power of the devil."

Aodai Qisi nodded thoughtfully.

The princess was completely unmoved.

Attilan smiled and shook his head. The devil only wanted the soul, but there was no need to explain too much to the princess now.

"What are you talking about, harvesting mortal souls, barriers, vanguard, why can't I understand a word? Are you talking about the Necromancer?"

A strange gleam flashed in the eyes of the werewolf general next to him. He remembered that the general once said that he would send an army to directly attack the capital of the Eastern Kingdom. Now they are directly attacking the capital of the River Valley Kingdom. In the future, they will attack the capital of the Eastern Kingdom. , can we also give it to them?
The princess used a broken sword to draw a topographic map of the Valley Kingdom on the ground, pointed at the map and said:

"Look, this is where we are now. This is the royal capital. It is basically impossible to reach the royal capital secretly. In order to facilitate business travelers in the Valley Kingdom, nobles from all over the country have built roads and collected taxes."

Attilan nodded. As long as money issues were involved, this group of nobles were always very active. When it came to tax issues, the nobles could always show their rare talents.

In order to catch those who evade taxes, the nobles must have a very keen sense of smell.

They may not be able to defeat Attilan's army, but the army has 10,000 soldiers and 15,000 auxiliaries. With so many people, no matter how stupid the nobles are, they can still spot their marching track.

Attilan had an idea and decided to divide his forces according to his plan for the Eastern Kingdom.

"You also remember that my plan is to use one force to destroy the enemy's food and another force to sneak attack the royal capital. Now there is an opportunity for us to try out whether this plan works."

"The werewolf general led 80% of the werewolves and half of the wild boar people to stay and continue to destroy the food. The centaur general and the wild boar general led all the men and horses and half of the wild boar people to raid the royal capital."

"The remaining werewolf soldiers are responsible for blocking news during the march to prevent the royal capital from knowing that a troop is heading towards the royal capital."

"Princess, now you just need to plan a road to the royal capital as quickly as possible. Of course, if the noble castles involved on the way are loyal to the little prince, then we need to break them all."

"If they are loyal to the King of the River Valley, we can choose to ignore them. As for the nobles loyal to you, I hope they can send their soldiers to act with us."

"I wonder if the princess still has the confidence to convince them to be loyal to you?"

The princess gritted her teeth and waved the broken sword in her hand.

"Although the sword in my hand is broken, it can still kill people."

As she spoke, the princess waved the broken sword in her hand and shot out a green light blade, cutting down a small tree as thick as a bowl five meters away.

Attilan stepped forward and picked up the tree. His hands exuded strong natural vitality and reconnected the severed tree.

"If you want to chop something down, those guys in armor on the ground are great. Why are you chopping down a tree? This tree is so innocent."

The princess took a deep breath. This guy led his men to kill so many people in the town without blinking, but in the end he was fighting for a tree.

The princess seriously suspected that there was something wrong with Attilan's mind.

Sensing the natural aura on Attilan's body, the princess suddenly widened her eyes.

"You are a Druid! Are they...all your animal companions?!"

Although the wild boar general was not smart, they also knew the druid and animal companions, and they raised the mace in their hands and wanted to hit the princess. "You are the general's pet now!"

After saying this, he suddenly realized that the princess cannot be beaten. The princess is the general's pet. If he hits the princess, wouldn't he hit the general in the face?

He could only hit the ground angrily with his mace, causing a small earthquake.

"Okay, let's gather the soldiers and rest. We will continue setting off at dawn."

Before leaving, Attilan asked the princess to prepare a terrain map and list for the werewolf general, and asked him to attack the nobles loyal to the little prince and train his troops.

Attilan and Aodai Qisi did not move with the large army. Since the devil may be involved behind this incident, it is necessary for them to go to the royal capital to find out the information first.

The barrier is still there, and those who arrive in the material world will only be some demons with average strength. Anyway, they cannot be their opponents. Instead, they will wait until the army reaches the royal capital.

The devil with a keen sense of smell had long since disappeared without a trace.

After learning from the princess that the pharmacist who had mastered the fire of hell was still serving the little prince, the two dragons of Attilan immediately flew towards the royal capital.

Of course, before setting off, Attilan certainly did not forget to send a message to Cerstis and Vine, telling them that there were traces of devils in the human kingdom in the north.

Human beings are a race with complex emotions. Saints whose souls can reincarnate as angels may be born here, and evil human devils may also be born here.

Of course, most humans are just numb ordinary people driven by life.

Whether you are a saint or a devil, whether you do good or evil, you must first eat enough to have the strength. Even if ordinary people want to do bad things, they actually do not have much destructive power.

On the contrary, the rules protect ordinary people. If they become bad guys, they actively break the rules. Ordinary people who lose the protection of the rules are just a piece of flesh in the eyes of the strong.

Flying in mid-air, Aodai Qisi looked at the bright moon in the sky and said to Attilan next to her:
"Now we can still have time to admire such a white moon. After we catch the devil and find out his plan, I think we can no longer be as leisurely as we are now, right?"

Attilan glanced at Aodai Qisi lightly.

"You're thinking too much. You don't really think that we two underage ocean dragons are qualified to take care of things that involve the devil, right? Not to mention the king of hell, even some of the little lords in hell. Can’t beat it.”

"Hell has accumulated so many years of power. This little lord has the strength of a legend. As for us, how long do you think it will take for us to fight against the legend?"

Aodai Qisi said after a moment of silence:
"It's true that I'm a little behind now, but as long as I train hard, I won't have any problem competing against the legend in less than ten years!"

Attilan's mouth twitched. In less than ten years, Aodai Qisi will reach adulthood. By then, she will have a challenge level of 14 or 15 just by relying on the power of the ocean dragon.

Not to mention that in the past ten years, she has made some achievements in the mage profession, and it is really possible to compete with the legend.

"The capital of the River Valley is ahead. We can no longer use the dragon body to move forward. Let's fall to the ground and walk in."

Through some druid spells, Attilan easily led Odairies across the city wall. Don't tell me, although the River Valley Kingdom is only a small kingdom, the city wall is really not low.

The city wall made of earthen bricks is actually ten meters high, but the straight wall does look a bit too stupid. At first glance, you can tell that this place has not gone through many wars.

"Let's go, the princess said. The little prince will reward the pharmacist with a gorgeous mansion, near the big clock in the east of the city. You can tell which one is the pharmacist's mansion just by looking at the place."

Bypassing the patrolling army, Attilan pulled Odeice, who was curiously looking at everything around her, and finally arrived near the big bell tower. Sure enough, Attilan saw a four-story mansion.

The surrounding houses only have two floors at the highest. In comparison, this mansion is indeed very conspicuous.

Aodai Qisi took a breath.

"The smell of sulfur does have a faint smell of hell. It should just smell like a warlock or sorcerer who has been exposed to the power of hell."

"Who exactly he is, we still need to catch him and interrogate him to find out."

After all, Attilan had seen Trina demonstrate her stealth skills, but Odairis didn't know any stealth skills, and the power she could exert in her high elf form was quite limited.

He clumsily followed Attilan into the pharmacist's mansion, and immediately broke a vase. The clattering sound instantly woke up the pharmacist.

The mansion also spontaneously lit up the lights, the door was closed, and the magic rope that suddenly stretched out tied the two dragons of Attilan, and a gloomy voice came from the second floor.

"It's been a long time since thieves dared to come in and steal things. It just so happens that I need new test subjects! Jiejiejiejiejiejie~"

Attilan looked at the pharmacist walking down the wooden plank in confusion. He was still wearing a black robe at night, covering most of his face. At first glance, he was not a good person.

And for a pharmacist who is tainted with the power of the devil, isn’t your arrogant smile a bit inappropriate?

Now that the target has appeared, Attilan will stop talking nonsense with him.

His hands turned into cyan dragon claws, which violently broke the rope that bound him, and grabbed the pharmacist's throat with one claw, causing the pharmacist's half-used spell to come to an abrupt end.

"Tell me, who taught you how to use your hellfire?"

The pharmacist, who was still very arrogant at first, calmed down instantly. Feeling the power of the claws on his neck, he immediately stammered:
"It was a strange tiger man I met when I was a child. His hands were reversed. He taught me how to identify herbs, sense magic, and how to use sulfur to ignite fire to refine potions."

"Then where is he now?"

The pharmacist said quickly:
"He taught me how to make potions and then died not long after. I buried him under an apple tree on the hill behind my parents' house."

"died?"

"real!"

Attilan nodded thoughtfully.

"Thank you."

Just as the pharmacist breathed a sigh of relief, Attilan's claws suddenly exerted force and broke the pharmacist's neck, then threw him to the ground.

“People can tell lies, but the soul cannot.”

Just when Attilan was about to search for the soul, the pharmacist whose neck was broken suddenly stood up unsteadily and said this hoarsely.

"Damn dragon man, I didn't expect you to be so keen and aware of me hiding."
