Throne of the North.

Chapter 461 True and False Stories and the Dragon Knight's Fighting Skills
Nidhogg, the city of blue butterflies.

The Chosen returned with the carved sword, and they needed to make final adjustments before traveling north to Aesir.

However, the team of two has become a team of three. A woman as agile as a cheetah follows behind the Dragon Chosen One, becoming stronger by absorbing the power of the dragon's essence.

“This is Windsor.”

Fuan introduced it to the blind old man, who nodded while leaning against the wall, then fumbled to light the candle.

This place is even more dilapidated than last time.

"Those people have taken away everything from Master Sharon's family, but I was able to save this cottage."

The blind old man sat on a stool, looking in the direction of Fuan.

"What are you here for this time?"

"Respected Lord Dragon Chosen, you seem to have mastered your own power. I believe it won't be long before you can challenge the Dragon Lord."

"I'm still a long way from it. I've only completed two blood sacrifices."

Fuan shook his head, and then couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Have all the previous Dragon Chosen completed the ten blood sacrifices?"

"Of course not. The Chosen Dragons are noble, but they also need to accept challenges again and again. Sometimes, the Dragon Lords will find the Chosen Dragons in advance and kill them."

"There are very few Dragon Chosen who can completely unlock the seal of a weapon."

The blind old man sighed and said, Fuan finally remembered the purpose of his coming here. He took out the wooden sword and handed it to the other party.

"We don't know what the sword means. Can you tell us?"

The blind old man took the wooden sword and rubbed it with his rough palm. Soon he paused at a certain position. After a few moments, he finally continued to touch it.

Not long after, the blind old man returned the wooden sword to Fuan.

"Lord Dragon Chosen, this sword describes an ancient history. Where did you find it? It seems very new."

"It's in Saiyi in the south. The sea there is very beautiful, but the city has been mostly destroyed. We saw a strange skeleton underground. It's still alive. And I heard that it was once a human."

"He sealed a dagger with the sword that killed him, and this information is described on it."

Fuan was unwilling to speak out the importance of the other group of people. He had completely become the Chosen Dragon, the most famous person in the world, so the Chosen Dragon must be the most dazzling existence in all things.

He doesn't want anyone to have a greater presence than himself. He is the Chosen Dragon, the Chosen One of the World, the only king.

Therefore, there would be no one else involved in this matter, only he, the Dragon Chosen, had gone through many hardships to find this thing.

"Is that so? The Lord Dragon Chosen is still as powerful as ever."

"The words on this sword describe a story."

"Legend has it that a long, long time ago, the world was ruled by dragons. The sky and the earth, the ocean and the forest were all ruled by dragons."

"Humans could only live in caves and survive in difficulty. Later, one human wanted to resist the dragon. They used fire, floods, and collapsed mountains to try to kill the dragon."

"But every time, they failed. In the process, humans became more and more desperate. They found that dragons were not afraid of fire or floods. Even when their bodies collapsed, they could only shake off the mud on their bodies."

"The first human who rebelled was burned to charcoal by the dragon's flames. But his death made more humans want to rebel against the dragon's rule. They walked out of the dungeons and were killed one after another."

"Humanity gradually fell into darkness and despair, until one day, a huge dragon descended from the sky onto the most prosperous place of mankind. Everyone was in despair, but the dragon did not kill them."

"That dragon is different. He wears a crown and gives power to humans."

"That was the first Chosen Dragon. Under the leadership of the Chosen Dragon, humans finally had land to live on."

"The dragon did not disappear, but became the master of mankind."

"Is this the story the sword tells?"

Fuan was surprised and a little confused. The appearance of the corpse at that time should not have been such a dull story.

"That was the initial courage of mankind in fighting against the dragon. It is worth commemorating. It is a story I didn't know before. It should be remembered."

“Our ancestors are worthy of praise.”

Fuan stood up with a solemn expression and said goodbye to the blind old man.

"I plan to go to the north. My armor is in the north. I need to find it there."

"There is a powerful dragon monarch in the north, Lord Dragon Chosen, you must be careful."

"Don't worry, I have a way to prevent the Dragon Lord from finding me."

After resting for a day, Fuan and the other two started heading north. However, not long after they left Blue Butterfly City, they were found by dragon warriors. After a tough fight, the three fled into the mountains.

The number of dragon warriors around is also increasing. They do not belong to a certain dragon monarch, but several dragon monarchs have sent dragon warriors to kill the Dragon Chosen One at the same time.

In fact, every few days, the sky was filled with deafening roars, and the Dragon Lord would arrive at the battlefield through the perception of the dragon warriors, but Fuan and his companions would always escape.

The only way for an angry dragon to quell his rage is to destroy the land.

"I found out. The armor is in Odin City. There used to be a very powerful human craftsman in that city. There was even a dragon monarch who asked him to forge a powerful weapon for him."

"The human craftsmen helped the dragon monarch forge weapons, but also used parts of those materials to forge armor that could resist the dragon's flames."

"He was later killed, but the armor will always return to Odin City."

"That city is ruled by a dragon monarch. I asked a villager whose village was burned down, and he said he saw the person who betrayed humanity appear in Odin City."

The agile woman spoke, and Fuan also showed an angry expression.

"It's him. He's from Odin City."

"Damn human traitor."

Next to him, Windsor hesitated.

"The dragon monarch Drummond is very powerful. He has lived for many years. We might alarm him."

"Then I must get the armor back. Without it, I won't be able to fight against the dragon's flames. I must defeat the evil dragon lord."

Fuan said firmly that now that they had a direction, they would set off towards Odin City now.

Odin City.

The bard Sven prostrated himself at the feet of the dragon.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have found the Chosen Dragon for you five times, but each time he became much stronger. The dragon warriors you gave me could not completely defeat him."

"Please give me more strength, I will kill the Chosen Dragon."

"no need."

The majesty of the dragon made Sven extremely nervous. What did it mean that it was no longer needed? Did it mean that he was no longer needed, or that he was no longer needed to look for it?
The dragon monarch Drummond did not allow Sven to continue to scare him, and said in a cold voice:
"He'll come here on his own."

Drummond spat out a suit of black armor, which landed next to Sven.

"Go put it inside that palace."

Sven looked in the direction the dragon pointed. That was the center of the wealthy area of ​​Odin City, with stone pillars standing there. A palace? There were only those stone pillars there, but this was the place the dragon wanted.

"I will give you my armor as per your wishes, but do I need to set up defenses?"

"No need for that. I will personally kill the Chosen Dragon before he gets close."

The dragon disappeared, and Sven blinked. To do it himself? Then wouldn't he have nothing to do?

not completely.

Sven walked on the streets of Odin City, and people around him were terrified of him. Although he no longer worked for the Dragon Lord, the human slaves didn't know about it, and Sven had left a great deterrent in this city before.

"Find all the stonemasons for me. I want to carve a statue for the noble dragon lord, His Majesty Drummond."

Sven was like a city lord giving orders, mobilizing the craftsmen of Odin City to mine stones and then forge and assemble them.

Among them are many skilled alchemists from the Frozen Territory.

"Millie, this way!"

Sven called the little girl over and put her next to him. There was a lot of food around Sven, and the key was meat. This was something he had done after gaining power in Odin City, and the Dragon Lord didn't know anything about it. "Uncle Sven, you are a bad guy, I can't eat with you."

Millie stared with her eyes wide open, but Sven ignored her and pulled her to sit down.

"Let's talk after you're full."

Millie is not young, but her previous malnutrition made her look small. In recent times, her muscles have become fuller and her skin is not as dark as before.

"Only when you are full can you have strength. Oh, and bring some back for grandpa as well. He is old, and he needs to eat something good to stay healthy."

Outside were all hard-working slaves, but they didn't feel anything about it. Every day in the past was as tiring as today.

"Can you hide it by hiding it?"

After Millie left, the alchemist apprentice who was responsible for cutting meat behind Sven asked worriedly.

"I should be the one asking you this question. If I'm discovered, I'll be dead."

"Aren't you able to liquefy metal? It shouldn't be able to see it."

"The arrows forged by Master Brock don't have any magical aura, so it shouldn't be visible."

Buried in the giant dragon statue carved by the craftsmen is a huge crossbow, which Ryan had spent a lot of effort to move here bit by bit. It is a war weapon used to fight against the dragon.

Most of the people doing these things are novices, and those alchemist apprentices are participating for the first time, and they are all very nervous.

"Don't give yourself away. How can you cut meat like this?"

Sven told the alchemist that he did not go looking for the "rich people" in Odin City this time because he was worried that those ulterior motives would stare at him and expose these alchemists.

"I heard some people talking about it these days. It seems that the Dragon Chosen One has already arrived near Odin City."

Unlike Muspel in the south, in the land of Esil in the north, the human slaves had only one emotion towards the arrival of the Chosen Dragon, and that was fear.

They are as afraid of the Dragon Lord as they are of the coming of the Chosen Dragon. Generations have long been accustomed to sacrificing dragons and living a life of slavery. The changes brought about by the Chosen Dragon have made everyone panic.

If the news of the Chosen Dragon had not yet spread widely, Odin City would have been in chaos.

Sven was not surprised by the news. You know, he had met the Chosen Dragon five times before. He already knew that the Chosen Dragon had completed the third blood sacrifice. His current strength was no less than that of the peak Golden Knight. If he used the sword to unleash his power, he could fight against the Sky Knight.

I heard that after ten blood sacrifices, the Dragon Chosen One will be able to kill the Dragon Lord, which would at least become a legend.

"During this journey, he should have completed his fourth or even fifth evolution, right?"

Sven hopes that the Chosen Dragon can be stronger. At least for now, it seems that the goals of them, the followers of Lord Ryan, and the Chosen Dragon are the same. Only by solving the rule of the Dragon Lord can they take over the world.

Another expansion of the Frozen Territory is just around the corner, and Sven is eager to see that day. With his merits, he will soon be able to become a follower of Lord Ryan whose status in the Frozen Territory is second only to that of Lord Ryan, and maybe even be able to obtain the title of lord.

Lord Ryan never skimps on this.

"The dragon is waiting for him here. Should we remind him?"

Sven hesitated. He didn't have any good way to tell the Dragon Chosen One that the other party hated him to the core.

……

"Damn human traitor!"

Fuan opened his eyes wide and looked into the distance. There were countless people running around, carrying large stones and walking on the road with difficulty. Then a piece of stone could only be carved into the shape of dragon scales.

It is unknown how long this kind of fatigue will last, and many people will die in the process of labor.

"Let's go kill him. Without those monsters, he can't stop us."

The executioner said from the side, full of murderous intent, he was an old hand at this kind of thing, following the Dragon Chosen One he could do nothing but fight and kill.

"Not yet. Our goal is to find my armor. Killing him will reveal our position."

The three of them walked into Odin City. Like every other city, this city had no defense measures. People came and went freely. The people of Odin City did not show much doubt about Fuan and the other two.

"They're calling us country bumpkins."

"Recently, in order to forge a statue of the Dragon Lord outside the city, that human traitor seems to have captured many people from villages outside the city."

"Damn it, he must have killed a lot of people."

Fuan became even angrier, but his body instinctively looked towards the middle of the mountain. He saw the palace with only stone pillars left.

"I feel it. My armor is there."

"Then let's go get it quickly."

The executioner was a little anxious, mainly because he had once again returned to the place ruled by the Dragon Lord. The memories of his past as an executioner were affecting him, awakening the fear of the Dragon Lord that had been in his body for many years.

"Let's wait until night time. There won't be many people there and we'll attract attention if we walk in."

When night fell, Fuan and the other two sneaked towards the halfway point of the mountain. Entering here was easier than they had imagined, and the three of them went straight to the location of the ruined palace.

Fuan had already seen his armor hanging on a stone.

Just as he was about to step forward, he saw two bright lights in the darkness ahead. They were not lights, but the burning eyes of a giant dragon, which instantly illuminated the surrounding darkness.

"Dragon Chosen, I have finally waited for you."

The Amber Flame Dragon, the Dragon Lord Drummond crawled on the ruins and looked into the eyes of the Dragon Chosen One Fuan. Invisible ripples echoed and spread on the swords of the man and the dragon. Drummond let out a cold roar.

"I will kill you!"

"Run!"

Fuan roared loudly, and the two followers around him were so terrified that they forgot whether to fight or flee the moment the dragon appeared.

"Run quickly!"

Fuan roared angrily. He was extremely surprised that the dragon would set a trap for him here.

"Run? You can't run away!"

Drummond opened his bloody mouth, sparks began to bloom on his red neck, and then a brilliant breath of fire covered the three people.

"Dragon destroys the mountain!"

Fuan drew his sword and began to fight the dragon, but without armor he could feel the air getting hotter and hotter, and his body had difficulty enduring it.

He was definitely no match for the Dragon Lord. He had not yet grown to his strongest form, and he needed to escape.

With his eyes bloodshot, Fuan slashed the sword across his chest. Blood spurted out and merged into the sword. At this moment, Fuan felt an incomparable power bursting out from the depths of his soul.

“The ashes are gone—the prairie is ablaze!!!”

Fuan's voice roared in the night sky, and his violent voice could be heard in most places in Odin City. Then a giant dragon with blood, energy and fire appeared on Fuan's body, and the sea of ​​clouds in the sky was ignited. They twisted into a whirlpool shape, and below the center of the whirlpool was Fuan.

He swung the sword, but the dragon lord Drummond in front of him stood there in a daze, looking at the magnificent sky and forgetting to fight back.

Finally, the powerful fighting skills fell and destroyed the palace which was already in ruins. Under the protection of the two men, Fuan and the other two quickly ran towards the bottom of Odin City.

At the original spot, the giant dragon lord Drummond, who was buried in the rubble, still did not pursue. The flames of dragon breath in his mouth kept flickering on and off. He let out a mad dragon roar, and some memories of the past were awakening, but were crushed violently again.

Until one moment, the giant dragon lord took off into the air and soared above the sky. It continuously breathed dragon breath in all directions to the west of itself. The flames ignited the sky and then formed a vortex of fire that was exactly the same as before, but even larger and wider.

The giant dragon in the center of the vortex let out a deafening roar, but in the city of Odin, only one person could understand a hint of the roar.

"Ember Destruction - Whirlpool Sea!"

Fuan vaguely listened to the meaning of the dragon's roar and fell into a deep sleep.

That is the complete form of a certain kind of knight's combat skills.

At the same time, in the frozen land area, on Rhino Horn Mountain.

Ryan cordially welcomed a magician into his castle.

"Sir Brener, I have heard Marquis Beifeng mention you many times. You are his teacher and the guide of the empire's light. I never expected that you would appear in person in the remote northern border."

"Baron Ryan, the North is not remote at all. It used to be the center of Norris Continent."

"I heard from students at the Magic Academy that you have some ancient Braille here? It happens that I am very interested in these things. Maybe I can help you."
