Throne of the North.

Chapter 459: True and False Dragon Chosen, Knight Combat Skills
Ouch——

The sharp howls of wolves echoed in the dark night sky, and the moonlight above was rustling and falling in the gaps between the shade of the trees in the mountains and forests. The night was silent for humans, but for wild animals, it was the beginning of a carnival.

Spring is here, the season when all things come back to life. The exotic beasts in the wilderness have also ended their long hibernation in the cold winter and have begun to look for food to overcome their hunger in this fertile land.

The majestic wild wolf stood on the hillside, howling constantly. It was also a member of the darkness. However, what was strange was that there was a petite human standing next to the wolf, and it seemed that it could not see the food so close to it.

"How is it, any response?"

Bruneggis asked, and the wolf next to him stopped howling and made human sounds.

"The beasts in this world are all controlled by the will of the dragon. Those beasts will not recognize my identity. There is no magic aura on me."

The wild wolf turned into Ulf and said helplessly.

"The beasts here all have the blood of dragons. They are more powerful than any we have encountered before."

Fox-skin Brunimigis pulled the longbow in his hand, and an arrow flew into the darkness. The next moment, a scream was heard, and the wild beasts around that were preparing for a sneak attack quickly disappeared into the forest.

"We can't let Egil get faster than us."

"Lord Ryan wants us to find out what is in the cave of the dragon monarch. If Egil completes the task ahead of schedule, our status in the frozen land will decline again."

"The people of Gam still need to rely on us to obtain more resources."

Wolfskin Ulf shook his mouth and said:
"If that doesn't work, then I'll have to go myself."

"The dragon monarch might be able to tell that you are a human."

"If you can't tell, it might just swallow you whole."

Wulf licked his lips and suddenly asked:
"Do you think it's possible for us to skin the dragon?"

Bruneggis looked at Ulf in shock and shook his head continuously.

"What are you thinking? Dragon skin cannot be tanned into cloak fur. You can't become a dragon, and your soul can't bear it."

"You also mentioned the soul. As I grow stronger, my soul might be able to withstand the hide of a dragon."

"Then I will be a dragon."

Wolf thought boldly. He had had this idea before, but he just never saw the opportunity.

"So no matter what, I have to get ahead of Egil this time. Only in this way can I get more blessings and strengthen my soul."

Transforming into a wolf again, Ulf disappeared into the mountains in an instant.

Saiyi.

This was a city in Muspel, but Saiyi could no longer see the shape of the city. The repeated visits of the Dragon Lord had turned the city into ruins in history.

The reason why the dragon came to this city many times was because Saiyi was the city closest to the ocean. It was built on the former mudflats. As the sea level dropped, Saiyi's land became stable.

Because of this reason, Saiyi has unique conditions. Whether it is grain planting or sea salt manufacturing, even if it has become a ruin, there are still a large number of people willing to come here.

The dragon monarchs have traveled through the sky here to the deep sea many times. They longed for the huge creatures in the deep sea, which were delicious food.

In the past hundred years, because the land of Muspel is no longer ruled by a dragon monarch, the legend of the dragon has gradually faded away.

Some say that it was the Chosen One who killed the evil dragon monarch, while others say that the Chosen One and the dragons perished together in the world to the north.

In short, the distance was too great, causing Saiyi's humans to gradually lose their enslaving temperament.

The humans here are generally stronger than those in other places.

Of course, compared to those fully-armed knights and attendants, the people here still have to stand still and watch those tall northern warhorses pass in front of them.

"We are the army of Lord Chosen Dragon!"

Michaela shouted loudly, and his powerful strength split a stone more than five meters high, shocking everyone, and they instinctively believed and respected what he said.

"The Lord Dragon Chosen sent us to Saiyi to tell you that the dragon lords have not disappeared, and they still rule this land."

"Every Dragon Chosen died at the mouth of a dragon. They are evil, crazy, and treat humans as slaves instead of servants."

"They sacrifice us at will, turning us into monsters to kill more humans."

"In lands ruled by dragons, the lifespan of human slaves never exceeds thirty years!"

"Only the Chosen Dragon, the great Chosen Dragon, can save us!"

"Join us and fight for the Chosen One!"

"Humans will become the masters of the world."

Michaela shouted loudly. Many people in Saiyi City were eager to make a move. They longed to become strong warriors. The knights and servants in front of them were too majestic in their eyes.

"We will wage war on the dragon until we win, and die."

The legend of the Chosen Dragon did not disappear in Saiyi. On the contrary, every relic on this land increased people's expectations of the Chosen Dragon, which was why Ryan planned to start from here.

Because they were far enough away from the dragon, they were not that afraid of its terror.

This is the foundation of being a soldier. Courage and fearlessness are what enable an army to win every battle.

"My Lord, where is the Lord Chosen Dragon?"

Someone asked loudly. They looked at Michaela. It was not uncommon to pretend to be the Chosen Dragon, so the real Chosen Dragon was particularly important.

"Lord Dragon Chosen is trying to find a way to kill the dragon. We are his army. If you perform well enough, you will be qualified to meet Lord Dragon Chosen."

"Before this, you were soldiers."

"Go register."

Behind the three hundred knight attendants were five hundred soldiers. The population of the city of Saiyi was about fifteen thousand, so five hundred young and strong men were not a small number.

Outside the city, Michaela set up a camp and began to train these new recruits. As for the supplies needed by the army, of course they were obtained locally.

They come on behalf of the Chosen Dragon. In the legends of this world, all hope for mankind lies in the Chosen Dragon. So, logically, all wealth belongs to the Chosen Dragon.

"Everyone, you only have six hours of sleep a day, one hour of rest at noon and in the evening. Apart from that, all you need to do is keep training, keep training!"

"You must understand clearly that what you are facing are not humans, but monsters!"

"It's a monster that looks like this!"

General Michaela carried out the body of a dragon warrior. Looking at this tall dragon warrior, many recruits showed fear.

They knew the monsters by name.

"They are the nightmare of mankind. When the dragon's wrath burns our land, dark nightmares will appear on the scorched earth, and they will brutally kill all living things."

There are many legends about Sai, all of which are about dragons and the Chosen Ones.

Followers of the Chosen One, warriors of the dragon, are also part of the legend.

"The Lord Dragon Chosen will kill the dragon before he gets close to it. As his army, we will defeat all enemies."

Outside the city of Saiyi, people were coming and going, mainly out of curiosity. While working, they were looking forward to the military camp. Listening to the shouting and killing inside, many of them showed frightened expressions. The army was not so friendly to ordinary people and was often full of cruelty.

Just like when the grain was being collected, many people in Sai showed resistance to Michaela's army.

Resistance is useless, and people who can only endure it are left with curiosity.

Fuan and the executioner were also in the crowd, looking curiously at the military camp. They could see hundreds of people there lined up and running slowly on the land. They ran out of the military camp and began to move along the coastline shouting loud slogans.

"Are they the army of the Chosen Dragon?"

The executioner frowned and glanced at Fuan.

This was not the first time they had seen this army. They did not know where it came from. Initially, it had killed the rulers of mankind in the north. After coming here, it actually began to pretend to be the army of the Chosen Dragon.

"However, you can go find their leader and reveal your identity. Perhaps this army can become your followers."

The executioner asked, that army was very powerful, even Fuan found their leader difficult to deal with, if they could get their help, it would be of great help in killing the dragon.

"They will not follow me. Someone pretending to be me rules over them."

Fuan resisted instinctively and shook his head.

"If we want to defeat the dragon, we can only rely on ourselves."

The army trained for three consecutive days. Michaela suddenly slowed down the training and began to let the recruits recover their sore bones and muscles. He diluted the potion brought from the frozen land and poured it into the pool. Looking at the soldiers who jumped in and screamed, Michaela smiled.

"Very good, you are now qualified soldiers." The next day, early in the morning, a large number of dark dragon warriors appeared in the distance of Saiyi, and in the military camp, Michaela was already ready.

"General, an army of dragon warriors has been spotted in the north."

"It seems that our enemy has appeared."

Michaela had known for a long time that Sven was wandering in the wilderness with an army of dragon warriors, and these words were spoken to these soldiers.

"Arm your troops, we will fight for the Chosen Dragon!"

On the wilderness.

Sven rode on a warhorse, walking nervously in front of the dragon warriors. He looked into the distance, where the human army had already gathered.

"I have four hundred extraordinary warriors here. Can Lady Michaela win?"

After witnessing the fighting power of these dragon warriors time and time again, Sven was extremely nervous. He was afraid of the failure of the soldiers of the Buck Legion. It would be very uncomfortable if Lord Ryan put the blame on him.

"And Lord Egil, can you handle this big guy?"

Sven looked at the Mad Dragon Nightmare beside him. The other party was just standing on the ground and walking, but his head had already reached his waist while he was riding on the back of a warhorse. Sven had seen the Mad Dragon Nightmare kill like a black shadow and easily kill a third-level peak Warcraft python. In terms of speed, power, and physical strength, the Mad Dragon Nightmare was like an enhanced version of the Golden Knight.

"I can feel that the Chosen Dragon is just ahead!"

Sven said loudly, causing the army of dragon warriors to stop.

What he said was not made up for no reason. During this period of time, he was chasing the Chosen Dragon. Although this world is not small, there are only so many places suitable for humans. After eliminating them one by one, Saiyi in front of him is the most likely place for the Chosen Dragon to appear.

It is also said that within the city of Saiyi, there are relics left behind by a former Dragon Chosen One, which contain the power that the Dragon Chosen One needs.

On the other side, Michaela also gathered the army and approached. The two sides on the battlefield confronted each other on this land. In the distant city of Saiyi, countless people stood on high places and looked at this place in fear. They saw the servants of the Dragon Lord, the appearance of those legendary terrible dragon warriors, and also saw the army of the Lord Dragon Chosen against them.

"Catch that damned Dragon Chosen. His Majesty Drummond must kill him with his own hands!"

Sven roared loudly, commanding the dragon warrior army to attack forward.

Hearing his order, the dragon warriors roared and charged forward.

"Prepare defense!"

Five hundred infantrymen stood in front of three hundred knight attendants. The moment Michaela gave the order, all the soldiers instinctively picked up their spears. This was an instinct they had acquired through training over the past few days, but the arrival of the first war still made these new recruits feel nervous.

"Don't be afraid, they are not as strong as you think, and we are invincible!"

Michaela shouted loudly. The dragon warriors on the opposite side had already rushed forward. Just three meters away from the soldiers, the ground suddenly collapsed. Dozens or hundreds of dragon warriors slipped and fell into the deep pit, and were pierced through the body by sharp wooden thorns.

The appearance of the deep pit disrupted the rhythm of the dragon warriors, and they were already scattered when they rushed to the human army.

"Kill them!"

Above the heads of the five hundred infantrymen, arrows shot by the knights' servants suppressed the rushing dragon warriors, creating wounds on their bodies that pierced their flesh.

"The Chosen Dragon is in that city. Charge, you damned fellows, charge quickly and capture the Chosen Dragon!"

Sven roared angrily, causing the dragon warriors to charge forward.

The Mad Dragon Nightmare beside him also roared like a beast and rushed forward.

"Lord Egil."

Michaela pulled the reins, and the moment the Mad Dragon Nightmare moved, the warhorse under him actually trembled. The other party had the majesty of a dragon.

On one side of the battlefield, three white wolves suddenly appeared and rushed towards the location of the Mad Dragon Nightmare. They were very fast, and the agility of the wolves was fully demonstrated in these three white wolves and Egil.

A white wolf and Mad Dragon Nightmare collided with each other. The huge force caused the white wolf to fly backwards, but the equally fierce charge also reduced the speed of Mad Dragon Nightmare by several levels.

Egil arrived at the center of the battle, and the dagger in his hand was directed at the Mad Dragon Nightmare, but was blocked by the opponent's raised Dragon Tooth Sword. The huge force collided in mid-air, and Egil felt his entire arm numb.

"What a terrifying power..."

Egil had felt this kind of feeling from Brand before, but in the entire Tundra Territory, there was only one Legion Commander Brand.

However, what does it matter if he is strong? Egil's frantic attack, with three white wolves around him, actually suppressed the mad dragon Nightmare on the spot and made him unable to move.

"Can win."

Michaela and Sven both breathed a sigh of relief, and in the distance, the real Dragon Chosen, Fuan, and the Executioner also planned to join the battle.

"No matter what, they are also enemies of the Dragon Lord, which makes them our friends."

“We have to help them.”

Fuan said in a low voice, and the executioner questioned.

"How to help?"

"Let's deal with that human traitor."

Fuan looked at Sven, who was riding a warhorse in the wilderness, with hatred. The other party was a lackey of the dragon monarch, helping the dragon to harm humans.

Fuan began to sneak towards Sven. He was very fast and secretive. As he gradually mastered the power after his first awakening, Fuan received more power during this period and he was now very powerful.

He approached Sven little by little, but Sven did not notice the approaching danger. As a bard, he was born with the ability to get close to people. Stories and wine were easy for him, but when it came to fighting, he could only make the battle passionate through descriptions with his mouth.

It won't work if you fight on your own.

"Damn human traitor."

Fuan gritted his teeth, suddenly rushed out from a patch of weeds, jumped up and slashed at Sven, waving the sword in his hand.

Sven finally felt the threat coming, but he was unable to react.

"No, I..."

He wanted to say something, but an even more violent energy came from the front, followed by a black mass that smashed towards him, knocking the Dragon Chosen One Fuan in mid-air to the ground.

Pairs of eyes looked towards the battlefield, where Egil roared wildly. The airflow formed the outline of a giant wolf behind him. He was slaughtering, and in front of the manic Egil was the Mad Dragon Nightmare, who was originally as strong as him...

Sven glanced at the pile of bones on the ground. It seemed that all the bones of the Mad Dragon Nightmare were broken. It suffered terrible injuries and was even used as a weapon to block Fuan's assassination attempt on him.

However, Mad Dragon Nightmare is not dead yet.

"Are you dead? If you're not dead, get up quickly and catch this damn Chosen Dragon!!"

Sven shouted angrily. The fear of death was something that no one could face lightly. His anger was extremely real. Upon hearing his words, green flames began to burn on the body of the Mad Dragon Nightmare. It was recovering from its injuries and was consuming the dragon essence bestowed by the dragon lord Drummond.

It was visible to the naked eye that the Mad Dragon Nightmare stood up and rushed towards Fuan.

Fuan was still confused. He didn't understand why that person wanted to stop him. Or did he also want to kill this human traitor, but his aim was wrong?
Fuan had no time to think, because the Mad Dragon Nightmare had already discovered him. The unique aura of the Dragon Chosen made the Mad Dragon Nightmare go crazy, and it rushed towards Fuan regardless of everything.

After continuous suppression and attacks, Fuan finally felt how powerful the human in the distance was who could beat the Mad Dragon Nightmare into a pile.

He kept retreating, but the Mad Dragon Nightmare would not give up any opportunity to attack. As slaves of the dragon lord, they were born to fight in endless wars. Under the crazy attack at this moment, cracks began to appear on Fuan's leather armor, and cracks also appeared on his body because of exceeding the limit.

ah--! ! !
An angry dragon roar was transmitted from Fuan's soul, and he finally fell into a state of madness. His blood-red eyes stared at the mad dragon nightmare in front of him, and then he once again smeared his blood on the sword in his hand.

In just a moment, a violent wave of air swept in all directions, pushing away the Mad Dragon Nightmare.

Blood-red flames began to burn all over Fuan's body. His body seemed to become heavy and powerful. With each step, he made a heavy sound when stepping on the ground.

Fear actually began to show in the eyes of Mad Dragon Nightmare, but the next moment, green flames burned in the depths of his dark eyes. Mad Dragon Nightmare roared, and the two horns on his head emitted black air. He attacked Fuan once again.

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The irrational roar from Fuan's mouth made him charge forward as well. The Dragon Tooth Sword and the Rusty Sword collided with each other, and the ground under their feet began to fly behind the two of them in a burst of energy. Sven even pulled the reins, making the warhorse's hooves leap high, then turned around and ran away.

"His skills are not superb, but that dragon monster is born to be a fighting machine."

Michaela was at the back, looking hesitantly at Egil who was in a manic state on the battlefield.

At this moment, the Dragon Chosen One cannot die, as Lord Ryan still needs him to attract the dragon's attention.

But he wanted to persuade Egil not to slaughter the dragon warriors here, but he was powerless to stop this crazy wolf king.

Hundreds of dragon warriors, most of them died at his hands.

Fortunately, the blood-red flames on Fuan's body became more and more intense, and he exploded again, performing a terrifying knight's feat.

"Dragon destroys the mountain!"

The blood-red flame transformed into the shape of a giant dragon, and it rushed downwards with the slashing of the long sword. How terrifying was the power of the dragon's impact?
Enough to destroy mountains.
