Bone King: Welcome the Birth of the King.

Chapter 423 Title and Power? The Kingdom's Perilous Situation
The actions of the Slane Theocracy warrant further attention.

Tang Zheng pondered to himself, for there was another matter that was worth his attention.

The Platinum Dragon King of the "Reviewing Nation"!

Information about the Demon Tree is unknown to ordinary people, but the Platinum Dragon King and the Slane Theocracy do possess relevant information.

In the original future.

After detecting the resurrection of the Demon Tree, the Dark Codex immediately set off to subdue it, but unexpectedly encountered Shalltear.

This is why Shalltear betrayed Ainz and fought against him.

And in it.

The Platinum Dragon King was not explicitly mentioned, but he was aware of the encounter between the Dark Codex and the "vampire" Shalltear.

"The Platinum Dragon King might also take action!"

Tang Zheng's eyes flickered, and he came to this conclusion.

"Properties panel."

Reveal the class information for [Primal Chanter] from the attributes.

"What exactly is the skill 'Bloodline Activation - Golden Law'?" Tang Zheng studied the skill information again, but still found nothing.

I've had this job for a while now!

The skill descriptions for other professions are very clear, but the skills for the [Primal Chanter] profession are rather confusing.

"Bloodline activation" is not difficult to understand.
What is the "Golden Law"? Is it related to the "Golden" prefix in the title of the Golden Dragon King?
Tang Zheng fell into deep thought.

As far as he knows!
The original True Dragon King prefix for "Kurokan Dragon King" was not "Kurokan," but another name. It was only after he transformed into an immortal that the prefix was changed.

According to the novel, it is a "discarded name" that has lost its meaning.

"Do the titles 'Platinum' of the Platinum Dragon King and 'Eternal Darkness' of the Ever-Dark Dragon King represent some kind of actual power?"

Tang Zheng raised his palm, grabbed at the air, and took out a gleaming gold coin from the prop box, flipping and playing with it between his fingers.
"The true Dragon King has many more secrets."

—Mid-Moon.

8 month 10 day.

After three days of in-depth investigation.

The elite adventurers of "Blue Rose" have arrived deep in the Tob Forest.

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

"Ah hoo!"

A horde of nearly a hundred monsters of various kinds, their eyes bloodshot and devoid of the sense of fear and pain, went berserk and attacked from all directions in a frenzied manner.

"Defense against evil!"

"Magic Arrow!"

"Lower-level mental defense!"

"An arrow of strong acid!"

"Fireball!"

"Lightning Ball!"

"fortress!"

"Lower-level Agility Increased!"

"Super Enhancement!"

"...!"

The dense chanting of magic and the roars of martial arts techniques echoed throughout the jungle.

Gagrange swung his massive arm and swung the hammer in his hand: "Die."

There was a muffled sound!
The leaping wolf was smashed to pieces by the black hammer shadow; there was no blood, only broken roots turning to dust in the air.

"Everyone, make way!"

A sharp shout rang out.

Lajus sprinted across the ground, leaping into the air and swinging his demonic sword forward. The blade rapidly expanded and grew larger in mid-air.
"Dark Blade Super-Powerful Shockwave!"

The skill names, brimming with chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur), flashed across the demonic sword like dark energy from the night sky.

Rumble!
The dense horde of monsters ahead was struck by the shockwave of this dark energy, followed by a massive explosion.

In an instant.

The trees and monsters ahead were instantly annihilated by the explosive dark energy, turning to ashes!
The pressure on everyone present instantly lessened.

however!
After these monsters are destroyed, they release large amounts of light yellow powdery pollen from their bodies, which continuously drifts into the air.

A light yellow haze formed, which, as the air moved, was inhaled into the nostrils of the adventurers present or clung to their bodies.

A surge of irritating anger welled up inside me, making me want to destroy everything around me!
Even with items and potions that resist mental attacks, adventurers are still gradually affected by this continuous effect!

“Anli!” Rajos landed from the air, his feet sinking into the decaying leaves on the ground. He turned his head, his long golden hair fluttering.

"give it to me."

Anli gripped the Qing Sword, one of the four holy swords, tightly in both hands, pointing it towards the sky:
"Enhancement and Reinforcement: A Cleansing Baptism!"

hum-

The snow-white blade of the Qing sword was enveloped in a layer of white light, which then transformed into a soft, visible light that shot into the sky.

in a blink!
Under the white light, the powder in the air was rapidly dissolved and dispersed. In just two breaths, the smog formed by the powder had completely vanished!

The anger and excitement in the hearts of all the adventurers present quickly subsided as the white light enveloped them.

"Not bad, Anri!"

Tia appeared beside the corpse of a high-level tiger, the blood-stained dagger in her hand gleaming coldly. She smiled at Anli. "It's good that everyone's alright." Anli put down her sword, looked around, and still spoke with concern:
"If you feel that your mental state is still affected, you can come and see me directly!"

"Purifying Baptism" is Qingjian's ability, which has the effect of dispelling and increasing its own resistance, but it cannot form an area-of-effect effect.

but.

"Amplification Enhancement" is a class skill of [Hero - Believer], which allows Anri to enhance the skills she uses by either "area" or "intensity" effects!

Although it can only be used three times a day.

"As expected of Miss Anri!"

"Thanks, Miss Anri!"

"Miss Lajus and Miss Anri are both very impressive."

"...!"

Joyful cheers erupted from the group of adventurers.

Iverai raised her head and looked up at the sky, a hint of solemnity on her face behind the white mask.

Before entering the Tob Great Forest.

She tried to contact the Dragon King to ask if he knew anything about the "unknown plant monster" in the Tobu Great Forest, but she never received a response.

"Now is not the time to relax."

"This is already the third wave of monster attacks. Our actions have been completely monitored by the enemy. This is clearly a very cunning monster."

Amidst the cheers of the crowd, Iverie calmly offered a reminder:
"One is in the light, the other in the dark; plant-type monsters are good at hiding. If we can't find them quickly, we might be completely bogged down!"

As soon as these words came out.

The joyful mood vanished, and everyone's expressions turned serious.

What Ivelia was most worried about was not this, but the fact that this "unknown plant monster" was on par with the original forest ruler.

Her power is more than enough to solve this!

But whether it's controlling monsters on a large scale or causing chaos throughout the entire Tob Forest, this level of performance far surpasses that of the former rulers of the forest.

Lajus's emerald green eyes met Iver's gaze, as if they had simultaneously confirmed some kind of conclusion.

The monsters that attacked them were only of average strength!
—The front line of the Katz Plain.

Renas and Gazef exuded a chilling aura, while the two elite legions behind them gripped their weapons tightly, their faces tense.

The smell of blood filled the air!

The ground around the area was littered with the corpses of hundreds of imperial soldiers, their blood staining the area crimson.

This was clearly a resounding victory.

however!
Despite the victory, there wasn't a trace of a smile on the faces of Renas and the others.

Rumble!
Rumble!
The sounds of galloping hooves and the clanging of armor from a large number of soldiers gathered all around.

I saw.

Groups of soldiers dressed in blue base armor with silver outer armor surged up from all around the plain.

They surrounded the elite forces of the kingdom.

Miscalculation!
The same thought simultaneously crossed the minds of Renas and Gerd.

"The Empire actually used a few hundred elite soldiers as bait!" Gazef's expression tightened as he gripped the national treasure known as the Razor Blade, a hint of ugliness flashing in his eyes.
"Our scouts have already investigated... so why were our movements completely exposed?"

Rena's eyelids were cold. She slowly exhaled, raised her chin, and looked up at the sky, a hint of helplessness flashing across her face.

It seems that this outcome was already anticipated!

"Royal Air Guard!"

Renas seemed to squeeze each word out of her throat, staring intently at the sky, even though she couldn't see anything.

“What?” Gerdoff was stunned.

"That is one of the imperial guards that belong only to the imperial family, and it is one of the few air forces in the entire empire."

Renas lowered her head again, knowing that it was pointless to try to understand now, but she didn't stop explaining:
"Simply put, they are a unit that specializes in riding tamed hybrid monster eagles, and every member of this unit wears valuable, 'invisible' items."

"Heh." Renas sneered as she said this, "That Blood Emperor really has a grand scheme."

Gerdoff opened his mouth, then remained silent.

We've roughly figured out what happened: the flying scouts, capable of cloaking in the air, were defeated from the very beginning.

He could also faintly detect a hint of complaint in Renas's tone.

After all, kingdoms are different from empires; they don't value magic, let alone have magic casters in their armies.

"It's a headache."

Gerdoff raised his rough hand and patted his head, letting out a troubled laugh: "Any suggestions?"

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation, and of all those present, no one knew the Empire better than Renas.

"Go all out!" Renas calmly suggested.

"Hahaha."

Upon hearing this, Gerdov burst into hearty laughter: "That's exactly what I wanted."

Laughter echoed in the air, reaching the ears of the soldiers behind him, instantly easing the tense atmosphere.

Rumbling--

The imperial army pressed in from all directions.

After getting close enough, everyone suddenly stopped. The army at the front split up, and four figures with an aura far exceeding that of ordinary people walked out from the rear of the army at a leisurely pace.

"Lenas, it's been a long time!"

Among the four, a handsome man with short blond hair, dressed in similar-looking black armor, greeted them with a smile.
