God-level Great Hunjun System

Yan Hao was taken aback.To be honest, he had encountered so many opponents who pretended to be aggressive. At the last moment, he would either hold his mouth firmly, or wailed and knelt down to beg for mercy, but this was the first time he had seen Mikhail's neither humble nor overbearing attitude.

He didn't intend to kill this group of people. After all, the big man didn't commit any heinous mistakes, he was just eager to collect debts. Only to protect the dignity of the mercenary group.Now that Mikhail took the initiative to beg for mercy, Yan Hao decided to let them go.

"Naoko, stop, I decided to let them go!"

Hearing this, Naoko turned around lightly in the air, squeezed the orchid with a flick of her fingers, and instantly untied all the spider webs on the mercenaries.They all stood in place with lingering fear, not daring to move easily, for fear of angering the devil again.

Yan Hao said to Mikhail: "You are a good person, and you have rules in how you do things, but your subordinates need to be disciplined."

After leaving this sentence, Yan Hao took the little girl's hand and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Mikhail shouted behind him.

Yan Hao turned around and frowned: "What else?"

At this time, a sincere smile appeared on Mikhail's serious face: "Your strength makes us very respectful, and our mercenary group is about to embark on a difficult task, if you can help us , we will definitely offer a generous reward!"

Yan Hao shook his head: "Sorry, I still have something to do, I can't help you with this."

"Wait, please believe me, Your Excellency. This task was entrusted by the Regent Minister Vasily himself. If it can be completed, he will definitely not treat you badly!"

Regent Minister Vasily?After Yan Hao heard the name, he stopped leaving again.

Before parting, Jin Rugao explained to Yan Hao the power factions within the Novgorod Principality in detail, so that he could have a clearer understanding of the struggle for the throne.

According to Jin Rugao, there are four main factions competing for the throne this time. One is the blood faction, which supports Princessdolly, the only daughter of the former king Агафон, as the new king.Since this faction is loyal to the former king, of course it also supports the marriage contract that Агафон made for the princess during his lifetime.Even many people in the faction supported making the emperor of Wei the Duke of Novgorod after the marriage and sharing power with the queen.

The second is the faction of powerful ministers.It refers to the ambitions of several ministers whom Агафон valued highly after his death, and they had the idea of ​​changing the dynasty and usurping the throne.Of course, they did not dare to blatantly claim to change the dynasty, but they only declared in a roundabout way that they hoped to convene a meeting of "heavy ministers Rada" to designate a new heir to the throne through a joint meeting of the big nobles and landlords, and in the process borrow their own Influence supports the puppet to be in power, so as to control the overall situation.

If the first two factions are mainly related to the distribution of power within the principality, then the latter two factions are interference from the outside.

Among the three principalities of the Slavs, the Principality of Novgorod is in the middle, occupying a large area of ​​land suitable for farming in the south and a plain area with interlaced water networks in the central and northern parts. It has the largest land area, the most developed economy, and the strongest national strength.

The Kazan Khanate is located in the east, with the worst economy, but the folk customs are tough, with powerful Cossack warriors and Kazan knights.The Principality of Vladimir is located in the west, and because it is close to Lanyuzhou, it is convenient for trade with Western countries, so its economy is only slightly inferior to the Principality of Novgorod.

Whether it is the Kazan Khanate or the Principality of Vladimir, they have always hoped to take a few bites from the Principality of Novgorod, and this battle for the throne has become an excellent opportunity for them.

The Kazan Khanate supports Агафон's nephew Yuri to inherit the throne because Yuri's mother, Агафон's sister, married a prince of the Kazan Khanate; the Principality of Vladimir supports Агафон's younger brother Yaroslav Succession, because he married a Vladimir princess.

Since intermarriage among the three Slavic countries is very common, the blood ties among the three countries are extremely complicated. Агафон has no son, only one daughter, which gives the other two countries an opportunity.

Jin Rugao believes that Novgorod is still relatively united, so the small calculations of the Kazan Khanate and the Principality of Vladimir are not easy to succeed. On the contrary, the power ministers are the powerful enemies of the royalists.Among the faction of power ministers, the regent Vasily is a serious problem.

Because Vasily received the will of Агафон before his death, he also represented the orthodoxy of the royal family to a certain extent. Once he was allowed to successfully convene the Rada meeting of important ministers, it is not impossible to change the dynasty.

At this time, Yan Hao thought of Jin Rugao's words, and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

At the critical moment of the power struggle, this Vasily did not concentrate on the layout of the capital, but instead asked a mercenary regiment thousands of miles away to do things for him, and promised to make a lot of money.

Thinking of this, Yan Hao, who originally didn't intend to talk to Mikhail, turned his head and showed a bright smile: "Since it is entrusted by the Lord Regent, then of course I must work hard to complete it!"

Chapter 640 Dragon Corpse

Yan Hao and his party followed the Silver Bear Mercenary Group and started a long trek northward.

They crossed the vast plain, passed through tall and straight birch trees, until they saw the snowfield in the north.

At this point, Yan Hao asked the question he had asked many times on the road again: "Commander Mikhail, where are we going!"

According to his geographical knowledge of the world, this place is already located in the northernmost part of the Slavs' territory, and further north is the cold and frozen ocean. What are they going to do there?

Mikhail smiled: "The goal of this mission is an absolute secret. It cannot be revealed until the destination. Please understand."

Yan Hao sighed and had no choice but to back away.

At this moment, a mercenary who was probing ahead reported to the head: "The destination has arrived."

Mikhail's usually expressionless face suddenly turned red: "Your Excellency Yan Hao, you can see what you want to see immediately!"

A group of people hurried forward, and in Yan Hao's eyes, the coastline with ice, snow and silver in the blue became clearer and clearer.He noticed a black spot in the middle of the sea, and as the distance shortened, the black spot became clearer and clearer, and finally he took a deep breath.

It turned out that there was a huge iceberg floating in the ocean. On the iceberg, a huge corpse lay there. The monster had a fierce head like a crocodile, a pair of huge wings, and sharp claws at the ends of its limbs.

"Could it be?" Yan Hao couldn't believe it.

Mikhail answered his doubts: "That's right, this is the corpse of a giant dragon!"

Dragon!Really a dragon!Yan Hao's brain was about to burst, and the image of that greedy and ferocious monster, that fire-breathing monster emerged from countless movies he had watched in his previous life.No matter what kind of opera, epic, novel, or movie, the dragon is always an immortal and powerful existence, and it seems that this world is no exception.

Before Yan Hao had time to be shocked by the corpse of the giant dragon for too long, he heard a mournful roar, and another giant dragon rose from behind the iceberg, stood next to the corpse, and stared at everyone.

The members of the Silver Bear Mercenary Corps were startled, and turned around one by one and wanted to run away, but Mikhail shouted: "Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! This is just a young dragon, and its strength is far inferior to that of a mature giant." dragon!"

Yan Hao looked intently and found that the dragon in the air was much smaller in size than the fallen one. It seemed that what Mikhail said was true.

Yan Hao pulled Mikhail's sleeve robe: "Leader, you can tell me now."

Mikhail said: "Look around!"

Yan Hao looked around, only to notice that flags of different colors were flying on the entire coastline, and many tents and camps could be seen in the distance.It's just that his attention was all on the dragon before, completely ignoring the surrounding environment.

"This is a small fishing village in the north of the principality called Carandale. A month ago, the corpse of a giant dragon was found on the iceberg on the coast here! The local villagers wanted to take a closer look, but all of them were guarded by the young Kill the dragon."

"After the news spread, people from all walks of life were very interested in this giant dragon corpse. You must know that the legendary dragon is full of treasures! However, because this place is too remote, the major forces are in the midst of a battle for the throne. In the vortex, it is inconvenient to send out manpower, so they all chose the method of appointing mercenary groups. So you see, almost all the famous Slavic mercenary groups have gathered here!"

"So that's the case!" After listening to Mikhail's explanation, Yan Hao finally understood why they came here all the way, and why they asked him for help.Although the Silver Bear Mercenary Corps is excellent, there are still many competitors. If they want to stand out from the competition, they need powerful helpers.

"But why did the giant dragon appear here? Could it be..." Yan Hao naturally thought of the seal on the obelisk of the East China Sea. Could it be that the giant dragon clan also emerged after the seal was lifted?But why did only such a corpse and a young dragon appear?

"It seems that the legend is true!" Mikhail looked into the distance.According to the legend of the Slavs, the northern border is not the end of the world. Across the frozen sea, there is a colder island, which is the north of the true north and where the giant dragon lives!Known as the Frost Kingdom!

It is said that tens of thousands of years ago, the giant dragon and all the tribes lived leisurely on the land, but for some reason, the giant dragon became the object of dislike of all the tribes, and left the mainland angrily to live in the Frost Kingdom. You can occasionally see giant dragons sneaking out of the world, but generally speaking, the dragon family is extinct on the mainland. "

After listening to Mikhail's words, Yan Hao was shocked again!

Because if this legend is true, then the time when the giant dragons left the mainland should be far earlier than the seal made by the agreement between humans and monsters in Mengyuanzhou 1 years ago!In other words, in the earlier era, there were many other mysteries in the mainland that are now unknown!

This reminded him of the doubts he had had when he was still in the secret land of the East China Sea: If the seal of the obelisk was only aimed at the Mengyuan continent, then the ancient martial arts civilization inherited from the Lanyu continent should be able to dominate the world now. Didn't all the countries in Lanyuzhou show their due strength at all?

Yan Hao knew in his heart that the secret of the obelisk was only a part of the history of Tianji, and the older history was still waiting for him to discover.

Chapter 641

After seeing the dragon's corpse, the real purpose of the Regent's asking the White Bear Mercenary Group to complete this mission also surfaced.Vasily, the minister of the regent, just hoped to use this dragon corpse to raise the stakes in the battle for the throne!

As for the function of the dragon's corpse, Yan Hao didn't know. He asked Mikhail many times, and this simple leader always talked about him.

In the end, Yan Hao couldn't bear it any longer, and said to Mikhail firmly: "Master, if you don't tell us, then we won't be able to help you, please ask someone else!"
