Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire

Cassius, who regained his youth and had the appearance of a boy, left the Augustus family. No one knew where he went, not even Noah. Probably only his adoptive mother knew.

According to Cassius's declaration, he will travel around the world and challenge all the powerful enemies he encounters on the journey. For him who has fallen into a state of decline, there are many opponents in the world worth fighting.

The departure of his adoptive father did not bring much change to the Augustus family. After all, no one knew that the Augustus family would kill itself and kill a legend.

No one would believe this kind of thing, let alone guess it. Therefore, even if Cassius disappeared, there would be no temptation.

This is also because the Augustus family now has a legendary mage stationed all year round, which brings unparalleled deterrence.

Of course, it is also because the economic effects brought by the legendary mage are unimaginable to warriors. Any magic product that has a slight connection to the legendary mage, even if it is just named and authorized, can be sold for several times the price of products of the same level.

Unlike warriors who have difficulty producing output, the existence of legendary mages is an inexhaustible source of wealth. This description is not an exaggeration.

Therefore, the Augustus family, whose actual high-end combat power has been reduced by more than half, has become more prosperous on the surface, without any signs of decline.

"Well, if only my adoptive father could be more patient and a little more ambitious."

Jin Long looked at the gathering cloud giants below and couldn't help but think.

After his adoptive father was promoted, his adoptive mother was promoted to become a legendary mage. This was a scenario he had imagined for a long time. With such combat power, Noah felt that he could plan to seize the kingdom's dominance.

This is also true. After the adoptive mother was promoted, even if her behavior was arrogant and domineering, the old mage whom the royal family relied on had to go out in person to work for the Augustus family, just to seek for this family. Desired benefits.

This behavior was enough to show how powerful the Augustus family was at that time. It is no exaggeration to say that even the first noble family in the kingdom had to bow its head.

Although this is still the case on the surface, his family knows his own affairs, and the Augustus family, with his adoptive mother guarding him, is certainly a powerful family, but when he comes into contact with the royal family, he can't help but feel a little weak.

Fortunately, the outside world does not know the truth about the Augustus family, and no one wants to test it. This test can be fatal.

"Your Highness Noah, all the adult giants have been assembled. Please give your orders."

Just when Noah was imagining how prosperous he would be if his adoptive parents had greater ambitions and took control of the kingdom, the cloud giant under his command came to report.

"Well, wait where you are."

Jin Long ordered.

He gathered the cloud giants this time, for no other reason than to completely bring the Eldis Mountains under his rule, not just in name.

Noah is not satisfied with this. If he wants to achieve this step, he must completely sweep this mountain range covering an area of ​​240,000 square kilometers from beginning to end.

This undoubtedly required a huge military investment, so Noah showed no mercy and recruited all the adult cloud giants under his command who were capable of fighting.

Not just giants, hundreds of cloud giants were not enough to conquer such vast mountains, so Noah also called for more reinforcements.

Roar~

With the roar of the fire dragon, a huge group of flying dragons appeared in the sky. Each flying dragon with armor on its chest had a powerful and sturdy knight on its back.

"Noah, I'm coming!"

"Where's Edith?"

Noah was not surprised to see the Flying Dragon Knights entering the scene following his call. He was asking about the traces of another Knights.

"She'll be here soon."

Not long after, accompanied by the cries and roars of griffins, a group of griffins with beautifully groomed feathers also came into view of the golden dragon.

The two most famous Sky Knights of Augustus, following the Golden Dragon's request for help, officially joined the expansion war of the Golden Dragon's territory.

In fact, with Noah's status, he can also call more knights to join the war. However, Noah feels that those knights who prefer tradition are not suitable for investing in mountains with changing and complex terrain. Riding empty is the most appropriate.

"The family should form another knighthood suitable for fighting in the mountains!"

After leading his knights to successfully annihilate a tribe of gnolls, the young man who got off the saddle on the back of the flying dragon couldn't help but suggest.

Although the sky knights have huge advantages over flightless ground creatures, they are still unable to cope with targets in the mountains and forests.

Trees and dense shrubs that have grown for hundreds of years can not only block the view, but also provide defense for creatures on the ground. Not to mention that there are many natural caves and other natural underground hiding places in the mountains.

Even if the Sky Knights are involved in fighting in the mountains and forests, they still have some difficulties and many constraints.

"All Terrain Knights?"

Noah nodded,

"Actually, I have had this idea for a long time. I plan to cultivate a ferocious dragon beast that can adapt to most terrains, run at extremely fast speeds, and maintain sufficient combat effectiveness, and use it as a mount for the Knights?"

"Do you have any ideas? Is there a cultivated original body?"

When Tedder heard that Noah had such a plan, he immediately asked with interest.

"Not yet, but I will tell you the names of several monsters and you will know them."

"What?"

"Dinonychus, Velociraptor, Dinotyrannosaurus!"

"Do you plan to combine all the biological characteristics of these monsters into a new dragon beast?"

Tedder quickly understood Noah's thoughts.

"Yes, but it is very difficult, so it has not been implemented yet."

"It's not enough to just integrate the characteristics of these monsters. If you want to become a knight's mount, being ferocious and violent is not the most important thing on the battlefield. You must be smart enough, able to understand orders, and cooperate in combat. Otherwise, you might as well kill them." ”

“I know that you need to have a certain amount of basic wisdom, but not have a rebellious heart, be able to obey orders, be docile to your master, and be cruel to your enemies.

On this basis, we can continue to add combat performance on the battlefield, otherwise it will just create a new type of difficult and terrifying monsters. "

Noah also felt a little headache. The idea was one thing, but the process of realizing the idea was too difficult.

"Come on, I'm optimistic about you. You are a genius in all fields. Otherwise, you can try it now."

Tedder suggested,

"The battlefield is the best place to test."

"I'll try."

Noah nodded. Although he was ready to conquer the entire Eldis Mountains, this was not something that could be accomplished overnight.

Because there is no real king of monsters in this mountain range, it does not mean that after defeating and killing the strongest monsters at the top, the giant beasts and monster clans below will succumb.

does not exist

The complex and changeable terrain of the mountains means that the power generated in the mountains is destined to be complex and scattered. If you want to conquer it, you can only push it over one hill after another.

However, Noah is not in a hurry, because he can draw the power of growth from this war that is destined to be extremely long.

"Blood Origin Fruit, it's been such a long time!"

Seeing the flowers gradually blooming on the branches of the golden treetops, the golden dragon couldn't help but feel happy.

The adoptive mother presided over the war of plundering the Dark Territory. Although it was massive and achieved great results, Noah had nothing to do with this war. It could be said that he did not even touch the peel, but it was different now.

In this war that turns nominal land into actually controlled territory, every battle, every fight, and every monster that falls under the sword of the conqueror will bring fruitful growth to Noah's golden tree. of nutrients.

Not only the blood source fruit, but also the purple spirit fruit.

This is a war with the purpose of conquest, not killing. If he encounters a creature that is pleasing to Noah and willing to surrender, Noah will not mind taking it under his command.

These creatures who voluntarily surrendered and were willing to become the vassals and slaves of the golden dragon brought a steady stream of nutrients to the growth of the purple spirit fruit.

Unfortunately, Noah can't accept all creatures. The threshold for a golden dragon to recruit slaves is still relatively high, such as gnolls, troglodytes, trolls, etc. Noah will not even look at them. They are only qualified to be butcher knives. The blood of the dead souls beneath them becomes the nutrients that nourish the growth of fruit trees.

If there were dragon creatures such as dragons, lions, and chinchillas, even if they were tough and unwilling to give in easily, Noah would be willing to spend a little more time to conquer them personally.

There is no other reason, just because this type of dragon beast has a beautiful appearance and matches the tall and majestic aesthetic of the alloy dragon. It is eye-catching!

If it were a multi-headed dragon, a swamp dragon, or a snake dragon, it would be a different treatment.

Even if he is willing to kneel down, Noah will activate the Word Spirit Candle Sun and cooperate with the Sun Chakra to blast it to pieces.

However, in addition to the Blood Fruit and Purple Fruit that make the dragon feel happy, there are also Dark Fruits that Noah hates extremely. They are also growing crazily, and their growth rate is not inferior to these two fruits. .

War will inevitably be accompanied by death. Not only the conquered mountain creatures, but also the cloud giants and knights under Noah's command will suffer casualties.

These vassals and reinforcements who died in battle because of Noah's decision provided nutrients for the growth of the Dark Fruit.

"I don't want to start the war lightly, but the monsters and barbarians in the mountains are not willing to accept the king's transformation!"

Noah looked at the dark fruits on the golden tree that dimmed many branches and leaves, and sighed repeatedly, but it was obvious that the golden tree would not listen to his explanation. The fruit is still growing wildly, and its growth is even better than the other two fruits.

"Even if I have to bear the pain of all your sufferings, I will make all the mountains crawl under my dragon wings!"

Noah did not have any negative thoughts about shrinking from the appearance of the Dark Fruit.

He does not want to be a lonely lone dragon, but wants to become a lord dragon with his own vassals and legions. Then he must take on some responsibilities, and he feels that he can take on all of this.

The news of the battle in the mountains soon spread outside the mountains and forests. The war initiated by the Holy Dragon immediately attracted a lot of attention, and even made the majority of adventurers active in the Augustus territory agitated.

With enough rewards, these guys dare to enter the Underdark Region, so what do they mean by the mountains that are still within their knowledge?

"If you want to join so much, then let them in!"

Naturally, Noah would not refuse the enthusiasm of adventurers. He was not a dragon who would be stingy with rewards. He was also willing to use the land in his territory to reward powerful extraordinary beings - provided that he liked it.

"Dad Long, I want it too."

"Uncle, I also want to join the war."

When adventurers began to enter the mountains in large numbers, a pair of siblings also came up.

Noah thought for a moment and agreed. Not only that, they also brought another pair of dragon siblings, the red dragon Baal, and his sister Aurora.

So, Noah saw interesting feedback on the golden tree, that is, the red dragon who was recruiting the war lizard tribe.

It must be admitted that the red dragon has an incomparable innate advantage over other dragons when recruiting these monster tribes that are defined as evil by humans.

Even if they are just young dragons, they can get the active surrender and service of the monster tribe. Even if they have the possibility of hunting dragons, they still choose to surrender.

"Dad Dragon, these two dragons acted on their own. They are just young dragons, but they are so ambitious. Do you want me to kill them?"

The girl hugged the dragon's tail and saw the scene emerging on the water mirror in front of her, and a trace of murderous aura appeared between her eyebrows.

Although she was taught well, she was not a flower that grew up in a greenhouse. Her grandmother's course included field combat training.

"No, don't you think this is interesting?"

Noah rejected the proposal of the goose girl.

Although these two red dragon cubs showed ambition, they did not pose a threat to Noah. Instead, they brought him purple energy feedback. These guys could actually be counted as slaves.

This surprised Noah quite a bit, and it was not surprising that he made the decision to allow it now.

As a golden dragon, he certainly could not take in evil monsters, but wouldn't it be normal for him to take in some of the red dragon slaves he raised?

My slave's slave is not my slave?

Thinking of the fun, Noah couldn't help laughing.

"It's really interesting."

Seeing the young dragon sneaking around and looking around, the girl also smiled, and then asked casually,

"By the way, Dragon Dad, Ur told me that he had seen you in human form? I said he was lying, and he said I was ignorant. Is this true?"

"It's barely considered."

Noah replied indifferently.

"Have you really turned into a human?"

"Well, what happened?"

The golden dragon noticed something was wrong at this time and looked at the girl on the dragon's tail, while the girl fluttered her long eyelashes, revealing a look of grievance,

"But I have never seen it before, this is unfair, I also want to see what you look like when you become a human, Dragon Dad."

"I have never turned into a human!"

"Then you can try it now, your human appearance must be very beautiful."
