Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire

When the legendary Grand Duke of the Augustus family was on the rise, the city of Elishim was built. After the Grand Duke was promoted, along with the growth of the legendary power and reputation, it expanded and developed, and became more and more prosperous.

For twenty years, the prosperity of this city has only increased, and there is no sign of decline. Its prosperity has already shown a tendency to catch up with the capital of the kingdom.

Today, it is becoming more and more prosperous

Noah coiled on the towering watchtower, overlooking the city below the mountain, which was difficult to see the end. The white bricks and stones with elemental runes faintly emerged, making the scales on the golden dragon more dazzling.

"It seems that I'm used to it!"

Noah, who had cast invisibility on the dragon body, whispered to himself. He flew all the way from the primitive mountains and forests and landed on the Mage City, where the foundation had been completed. What he saw, heard and felt was no different from usual. The only feeling was that the city was getting more and more noisy.

Although he had vaguely learned from his adoptive mother that his adoptive father might have had an accident, and it was not an ordinary problem, it now seemed that no one knew about this matter except his adoptive mother and him who had vaguely guessed it.

The news did not leak out, and the outside world was unaware of it. The city of Elishim at the foot of the mountain was still crowded with people, and everything remained the same. The absence of his adoptive father in a short period of time did not cause any changes.

Because this legend liked to run away since his promotion, and he did not stay in the territory most of the time. This time he disappeared for only a short year, which was normal, and no one thought there was anything wrong.

The majesty of the legend still shrouded this land, suppressing the shadows and evil spirits that quietly surged under the shadow of the sun, making it dare not move rashly.

But when Cassius could not appear for a long time, he could not have too much expectation of his remaining power. Sooner or later, someone would see the problem and start to test it.

There are so many benefits gathered here that it makes people jealous. When there is not enough power to protect, the wandering wolves and tigers will find the weakness and will inevitably open their bloody mouths, show their fangs, pounce on and bite the flesh and blood to satisfy their insatiable desires.

We must prepare for the worst, that is, the adoptive father cannot return and the Augustus family loses the legendary suppression.

This is the worst and what Noah does not want to see, because even he may suffer unpredictable harm in the change.

Although many strong people and forces are unwilling to provoke the metal dragon clan, the metal dragon clan has not reached the level that everyone is afraid of and everyone is afraid of. There are still thugs who dare to swing the blade against the metal dragon and launch a dragon-slaying campaign.

There are many such people. As long as the time is right and there is an opportunity to plunder, many extraordinary people dare to do something to the metal dragon.

The collapse of the Dukedom is undoubtedly such an opportunity. Under the chaos caused, even if the golden dragon is attacked, it is difficult to trace the real culprit because there are too many remaining traces.

The adoptive mother has already started to prepare, but only Noah, who was reminded, has noticed that inviting his biological parents to reunite the Golden Dragon family is just one of them.

When Noah came to the Mage City, he could see that the Mage City had completed the infrastructure construction and some magic facilities could be used. The remaining unbuilt parts were being built at an accelerated speed, and thousands of golems were operating day and night.

Not only these tireless golems never stopped, but even the golem production line, which had been expanded a lot, was also operating continuously. The big goblins who maintained the production felt it the most.

But the movement was a little bit loud, because once the construction of the Mage City was accelerated, there were too many aspects involved.

It was okay in the short term, but over time, coupled with the long absence of the adoptive father, there would definitely be suspicion, but this was inevitable.

As long as they can complete the main construction of the Mage City in a hurry, Noah, one of the designers, estimates that even at the most critical moment, when the building collapses, the Mage City can't defend the entire territory of Augustus, but it can protect the city of Elishim below.

This is the best choice at present. If you lose the legend, don't dream of retaining all the benefits. It's a blessing to be able to keep the core intact.

"Summon the legendary golden dragon to come?"

Noah inevitably thought of himself, thinking about whether he could find a way to solve this crisis. Naturally, he thought of the legendary golden dragon, the grandfather and grandmother he had never seen, and even the dragon ancestors of higher generations.

However, this naive idea just emerged, and Noah pressed it down, because it was not realistic at all. With the wealth accumulated by the Augustus family now, of course, it can pay for the cost of summoning an ancient golden dragon.

But that is just the cost of letting the ancient golden dragon take action once. It is impossible to want a legendary dragon to suppress the family for a long time.

It is inevitable that the income will not be enough to cover the expenditure. The finances of the Grand Dukedom cannot maintain this balance. For a long time, even if the entire territory is given to the ancient golden dragon, it will not be enough.

"Alas!"

Noah sighed, and he could not think of a way to make up for the lack of legendary combat power.

In fact, the metal dragons are not really obsessed with money. Not to mention the bronze dragons that pursue justice, they can join a war that is considered to be against evil without asking for any reward.

The famous chatterbox brass dragon and the red copper dragon who likes to have fun, if someone can please them, not only will they not be harmed, but they can also get their rewards, which are monetary and material rewards.

Of course, the number of people who can do this is even rarer than the number of legends. Because compared to being verbally tortured by brass dragons and copper dragons, some people would rather challenge red dragons.

Then again, metal dragons actually have similar characteristics. As long as they can please them, it is okay not to talk about money, but this requirement is really too high.

But the current Augustus family, that is, Cassius and Selina, can make Noah's parents not talk about money. If they want the legendary ancient dragons not to talk about money with them, they don't have such a big face.

"Speaking of which, I remember my aunt said that my father and mother are also geniuses?"

Noah can only look forward to his parents, but no matter how much he expects, what kind of genius does it take for an adult dragon to be promoted to a legend?

Only the real ancestral dragon can do it, but when the ancestral dragon reaches adulthood, its age is equivalent to that of a normal old dragon. However, if they really fight, the legendary golden dragon of the ancestral template can beat this kind of old legendary dragon who follows the rules and steps.

The golden dragon stayed in the Mage City and did not return to the mountains. Urnos had been arranged by him. In addition to the red dragon cub, his sparring opponents also included the offspring of the cloud giants.

The cloud giants were overjoyed at such an arrangement and cooperated very well. Not to mention that everyone was excited, they also participated enthusiastically. In order to compete for a few places, there was a civil war among the giants, but Noah suppressed it.

Now Noah, not to mention other things, only relied on the spells he mastered and the dragon fighting skills he had just learned. Without injury, it would not be a big problem to knock down a few adult cloud giants.

This was enough to shock the cloud giants. Now Noah was just a young dragon, and for the short-lived species, he was also quite young.

The memory of the short-lived species was worse than Noah expected. Because in just less than a year, some people began to test some inconspicuous places.

"Your Highness Noah, we have captured another shadow assassin!"

"What is his origin?"

"We can't ask anything, but he is a drow."

"Yes."

Noah understood. Within the ruling area of ​​the Augustus family, if you ask who wants Cassius to get into trouble the most, it is naturally the many clans in the Underdark.

Because Selina's exploitation of these dark clans is too cruel, they pay tribute every year and hand over the money every year. A large part of the reason why the construction progress of the Mage City is so gratifying now is due to these dark clans.

How can they not hate? How can they not hope that Cassius will not get into trouble?

As long as there is no ridiculously powerful legend to suppress them, it is natural for these dark clans to launch a rebellion. Not only will they rebel, but they will also launch a counterattack on the ground and occupy the rich land with infinite sky in their eyes.

"If I remember correctly, there are no drow among the clans that surrendered to the Augustus family, right? These guys all fled back then."

"Yes."

Sifreya confirmed. She knew the detailed situation of the Augustus family in all aspects, which was much better than Noah, who liked to give up.

"It seems that the loser back then wants to make a comeback."

Noah did remember that when his adoptive father suppressed the Underdark, in addition to the ancient black dragon, he also killed three legends. The first one was the assassin who took the lead in the assassination. Among the other two legends, there was also a drow, a dark warrior.

It was for this reason that the mastermind behind the explosion of the underground volcano and the creation of the Valley of Fire chose to flee far away after that battle, avoiding the sharp-edged Cassius and giving up this passage that could enter the ground.

"Where did you catch them this time?"

"Rock Golem Production Workshop No. 26."

"They only drilled into the Clay Golem Workshop before, right?"

"Yes, they have started to enter the Rock Workshop in recent days."

"If we let this go on, won't they dare to spy on the Iron Golem in a few days?"

"Your Highness, the workshops that these drow sneaked into are all your properties."

"What?"

Noah, who was originally calm and composed, was stunned, then turned his head and stared at the dragon-like goblin,

"Are these black-skinned elves targeting my property?"

"From the location where they were captured so far, yes."

"That's ridiculous, do these black-skinned elves think I'm easy to bully?"

The golden dragon's scales exploded immediately, no dragon could tolerate its wealth being threatened. Not to mention, in Noah's eyes, every golem workshop represents an inexhaustible gold mine.

"Has my golem workshop been damaged?"

"The production progress has been disrupted a little, but other than that, it hasn't been damaged much."

"No major damage, so is there minor damage? The production has been disrupted? This is not spying on the territory, it's clearly destroying my treasury!"

The Golden Dragon's eyes became sharp and murderous,

"Skin these drow alive, and then hang them on the workshop, so that these ignorant black-skinned bastards can see what the consequences of destroying the Golden Dragon's property are!"

"As you wish."

Sifreya leaned forward slightly, ready to go down and execute this order.

"Wait a minute."

Noah called the big goblin, and when the thoughtful elf looked over, the Golden Dragon showed a look of hesitation, and then said helplessly,

"It's better to deal with it in a low-key manner, and not to make a big fuss. You will have to work harder during this period and increase the frequency of patrols."

"yes."

Xifreya's expression remained unchanged, but she accepted the order on behalf of her own kind.

"well!"

The golden dragon let out a long sigh. The ambitious and ready drow were just the beginning. With them taking the lead, more and more forces lurking in the dark could not help but spy on the Augustus family.

"Why aren't you here yet? This is too slow!"

Noah muttered about his biological parents, feeling quite resentful.

"You're not going to give me another younger brother or sister, are you? It's really slow to take care of a family."

Because Serena has made it clear that she has contacted the Dragon Father and the Dragon Mother. This golden dragon couple, who are free and easy to go out without raising a son, have promised to come over.

I don’t know if I heard Noah’s private arrangement, but at sunset two days later, when day and night changed, there was a long and loud dragon roar.

Elisim City, or more accurately, directly above the Mage City, the sky cracked, and a long and narrow crack stretched for thousands of meters across the city.

Behind the crack, there is a darkness that is deeper than the coming night. One can see the slowly rotating giant stars and the meteor groups trailing long tails.

This caused a small panic in Elihim City, but most of the citizens were able to remain calm enough. The residents here, even mortals, are well-informed mortals. For them, such a big scene is already Can't scare them anymore.

However, when two long, winding golden dragons appeared from the cracks and fell towards the Mage City, they still caused exclamations and shocks like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.

Not to mention mortals, even the most experienced high-level adventurers have never seen such a noble dragon, because the golden dragon maintains its human form most of the time, rather than its true form.

This kind of shock and amazement is two-way. The city residents were greatly shocked when they saw the golden dragon showing its true form. However, the golden dragon that came down also became a little unconfident because the scene below was completely different from what they remembered.

The temporary dragon nest they had built had disappeared and was replaced by a majestic mage city under construction. There was also an exaggeratedly densely populated city below.

Is there something wrong with our teleportation coordinates? !

It shouldn’t be possible! ?
