Make the dragon great again

Chapter 172 [Roaring Mountains] Short story with the parents of the Dragon Clan
The terrain of Sirias Continent is generally high in the middle and low around. The highest mountains are all concentrated on the [Roaring Mountains] in the middle of the continent.

Legend has it that above the snow line of the [Roaring Mountain Range], there are rock creatures that have disappeared from the outside world, as well as some giants of long-lived species. In the depths of this harsh mountain range, they have guarded some ancient ruins that have survived from a long time ago.

Legend has it that whoever can overcome the blockade of these guardian races and the barriers of the natural environment, and find the legacy left by the ancient gods in the depths of the [Roaring Mountains], whoever can obtain eternal life and the power of the gods...

Every year, a large number of adventurers go deep into the [Roaring Mountain Range] for that unreachable legend, but in the end, very few can return from it, and there is not even a single person who can obtain the legendary "God's Legacy" .

Although no one has been able to see the so-called "God's Legacy" so far, according to those adventurers who came back alive from the depths of the [Roaring Mountain Range], above the snow line of this majestic mountain range in the middle of the continent, In the unknown depths covered by overlapping peaks, there are indeed some huge and ancient weathered buildings that look like temples.

This has made quite a few people more convinced that the legend is real, and that in this [Roaring Mountain Range], there are indeed buried ancient ruins that are unknown to the world, and that may even exist before the birth of the Gaia species...

Due to the operation of the dungeon and the acceptance of a large number of adventurers, Adrian occasionally heard about these legends among the adventurers when he slept in the dungeon.

However, compared to Gaia's almost deified "fantasy" about the depths of the [Roaring Mountain Range], Adrian is very clear about what is there.

——It used to be one of the settlements of the dragons in the Age of Gods, and later in the "Dragon Pastoral Age" in the early second era, it was also a scattered settlement for some giant dragons who liked high mountains and cold environments.

It is named after the roar, because when there were a lot of dragons in the past, everyone's lairs were often separated by a few hills, and the dragons who settled here basically relied on dragon roars when they greeted each other...

The roar of the giant dragons once greeted each other gave the Gaia species, who were still in the ignorant age, the impression that "this is a roaring mountain range", so that the [Roaring Mountain Range] was formed in later generations. title.

In some mythological systems of the Gaia species, [Roaring Mountains] is "the place where the world breathes and the ancient gods murmur", which is full of religious mythological charm.

But those roars that they interpreted as various theological symbols with abstract meanings are actually just the words of the giant dragons such as "Have you eaten?" The son of the egg broke the shell" and other parents are short-sighted...

It's not that Adrian has never thought about rebuilding the settlement of dragons in the [Roaring Mountains], but firstly, he didn't know the specific situation of this world at the beginning, and secondly, the dungeon looks narrow but actually there is something different inside, and it is still a Reliable "tortoise shell", which can advance, attack, retreat and defend;

For Adrian, a solid RTS player who is well versed in the strategy of "building high walls and accumulating grain", it is too early to open the second mine at this time.

Later, Adrian had a certain understanding of this world, and knew that the Sirias continent might not be as dangerous as he originally thought, so he acted boldly, but he was still worried about those who occupied the land after the disappearance of the dragon clan. The long-lived species of the [Roaring Mountain Range], and because of the matter of the land of the ancestors, this issue was once again shelved.

After the crisis in the Land of the Ancestors ended in an unexpected way, Adrian wanted to take the time to investigate the [Continental Barrier] and the [Roaring Mountain Range], which he had not had time to investigate before. , Involved in [Battle of the Misty Sea] before the Dragon Clan.

The wood elf's request was unexpected, and Adrian simply advanced some planned schedules. ...

The figure of the giant dragon was flying across the sky. For the Gaia subspecies on the surface, the giant dragons at that height, due to the perspective relationship between the near big and the far small, looked not much different from flying birds, so they did not cause any disturbance. How much attention.

Adrian did not bypass the entire northern section of the [Roaring Mountains], but directly climbed over a large branch of the relatively flat mountain with an altitude of less than 5000 meters, and took a shortcut to the western foot of the [Roaring Mountains].

By the way, you can also take a look at the situation inside the [Roaring Mountains] from a high altitude.

Adrian noticed that the Skeletal Dragon's gaze would always be on a certain valley in the [Roaring Mountain Range], so he asked:

"Where is your former lair?"

Yelansi remembered and said:

"No, my original lair was in the southern part of the mainland, in the center of the [Battle of the Misty Sea], and now it is an uninhabitable and chaotic environment..."

"So where is it?"

"It used to be the lair of an old golden dragon, an old dragon who was older than me and Yelans. Golden dragons are a group of guys who like to preach. Yelans and I caught him here. It has been taught, it can be said to be our teacher, and it was also a teacher recognized by many dragons at that time, including Elder Chris."

Golden dragons like to communicate, and they generally have a temperament to be a teacher. Adrian knows this from his inheritance memory, but he has never seen a golden dragon in reality.

"Can be regarded as a teacher by an [Havoc] ancient dragon... This senior golden dragon also fell in the [Battle of the Misty Sea] in the end?"

"No, he didn't. He died before the sudden battle for godhood broke out. Elder Chris said that she would bury this respected elder in the sublime she built for all future dragons." Space Dragon Tomb, but they didn't tell us where the Dragon Tomb is until the end...Of course, now we all know where that place is."

Skeleton Dragon looked at Isabella at the side, and saw that she was listening with gusto, and his emotions were quite complicated for a while.

Isabella listened to this history purely as a story. With a pure heart and lack of social interaction for many years, she still didn't quite understand the meaning of the bone dragon's look at her...

Adrian felt Yelans' emotional changes, and he also had some thoughts in his heart:
'I'm afraid, the corpse of this senior golden dragon is among the giant dragon bones piled up into a ritual circle in the subspace of the ancestral land...

"Elder Chris's dragon tomb is a ritual place specially arranged to continue hatching dragon eggs after her own fall, but it seems that Elder Chris has been gathering dragons since a long time ago. Is it possible that she already knew that the [Battle of the Misty Sea] would end like this, that she would eventually be defeated? That’s why she prepared in advance?'

Adrian was puzzled, and at the same time, he also knew that Yelansi probably had similar doubts as himself.

If the [Battle of the Misty Sea] was doomed to fail, then why did White Dragon Kris mobilize the power of the whole clan to participate in the battle for the godhead, so that the dragon clan completely withdrew from the stage of history because of this battle?
Is there any deeper consideration behind this, or is it just the result of being deceived and induced by some existence?
This is not a question that can be answered in a moment of random thinking, and the valley was quickly swept away, and this topic stopped here.

Along the way, when occasionally passing by some places that looked like ancient ruins, Adrian would ask Yelans about their past history, and got some answers that were either boring or touching.

For example, a certain high-altitude lake used to be a magma lake in an active crater, and it was a mixed bathhouse for red dragons and brass dragons. Every ten years, there will always be one or two sex stories happening here, and every hundreds of years, there will always be There was a news that "the red dragon gave birth to a brass dragon egg";

For example, a certain flat-topped peak with an altitude of nearly [-] meters was once a place where young dragons fought with each other. It originally had an altitude of [-] meters, but after being "ravaged" by young dragons for many years, its height was cut off In contrast, the gully near the mountain was filled with gravel;

For example, the source of a riverbed that has been dry for tens of thousands of years was once the lair of a sadistic red dragon that preferred to live in cold regions. It caused the river to dry up, leaving behind the "remains" of this river that could not have been born in the natural environment...

In addition, there are also strange relics such as "the crater left by the scene of domestic violence", "a lonely peak built to celebrate the birth of a child", "an outdated mine transformed into a custom shop" and so on .

There are all kinds of things, and there are many.

Smaug and Fay listened quietly to the conversation between Adrian and Yelans, pretending to be very serious, but in fact they didn't quite understand some of the strange knowledge points.

And Aliya, who was sitting on Smaug's back, had a vague image of the dragon in her mind, but it gradually became clear and three-dimensional.

It turns out that although the giant dragon is extremely powerful, it is not a mythical creature that does not eat human fireworks, nor is it the most evil incarnation of original sin preached by the Church of the Holy Spirit.

The giant dragons also have their own family background, their own social communication, and even gossip and gossip, which seem to only exist among mortals.

The dragon clan is also a group composed of members with distinctive personalities, but this group is too powerful...

The boring flight is not so boring because Adrian and the Skeleton Dragon occasionally communicate about the ruins in the [Roaring Mountain Range].

During this process, day and night completed an alternation, and Adrian finally came to the western foothills of the [Roaring Mountain Range], and saw a long and narrow valley bordering a medium-sized town at the exit.

This valley is naturally the largest settlement of wood elves in this continent [Red Maple Valley]. As for that city...

"There is?"

Facing Adrian's inquiry, Wood Elf Rosa replied:

"Your Excellency Adrian, there is a new city built by the Holy Rand Magic Empire over a hundred years ago. They cooperate with us wood elves to develop some low-level magic or magic tools that can improve the lives of ordinary people...Of course, According to the 'equity' of their human race, our Wood Elf Elder Council also owns half of the jurisdiction of this city."

A joint venture for product development?And not only across borders, but even across races...

Adrian looked at the small but very prosperous town below with many mage towers, and couldn't help feeling:

"It seems that some parts of this St. Rand magic empire are quite advanced. In comparison, the Gaia countries in the east of the mainland have fallen into a vicious circle of feudal landlords, which has caused the entire society to be somewhat lifeless. Only the adventurers are alive."

Alicia's heart moved, and the concept revealed in Adrian's words did not seem like a dragon with extraordinary power could say it.

Rosa smiled and said:

"Although these human magicians sometimes do some pretty scary things when they over-study, in terms of results, they have indeed created quite a lot of interesting new things, and these new magic tools, there are Sometimes even ordinary people without extraordinary talent can use it, which is why we wood elves are willing to cooperate with them."

Obviously, Rosa didn't understand the true meaning of Adrian's words, and thought he was talking about magic and extraordinary issues.

Adrian didn't care much about this, he glanced at Smaug, told him with his eyes, "Temporarily suppress the hatred for these human magicians, we are here to deal with business", and then said to Rosa:
"Then, please lead the way. Regarding the [Continental Barrier] issue, I can't wait to meet your elders."

"Please follow me, there is another circle of defensive magic outside [Red Maple Valley], which requires special means to enter."

Rosa got off Smaug's back, and under the natural magic of reducing weight and increasing buoyancy, she floated lightly to the ground, and saluted and thanked Smaug who had carried her all the way.

After Adrian turned on the magic perception, he looked at the faint natural matrix outside [Red Maple Valley], and thought, this is far inferior to the [Silver Forest]'s big array hosted by the tree of life, his own I can break in casually, but I still didn't say this out of politeness. After all, I came to communicate, and the wood elves are not hostile forces...

Arya also left Smaug's back, and used some kind of strange spellcasting method that Adrian had never seen before to suspend herself in the air. It seemed to be some kind of extraordinary system of a rare spellcaster, and Adrian didn't think too much about it. .

Soon, under Rosa's operation, the pitifully thin invisible protective shield outside [Red Maple Valley] opened a gap less than ten meters in diameter, and on the other side of the shield, some wood elves also Coming here.
