Food Reserves on the Dragon's Back

It's all a conspiracy.

It turned out that Anduocia had been secretly manufacturing the dragon-slaying crossbow, trying to harm the dragon clan. The dragon clan had already received the news, and they had already prepared countermeasures. As long as the leader gave an order, they would go all out to deal with these defiant people. of humans.

Only he, like a fool, was kept in the dark by both sides, naively dreaming of the peaceful coexistence of the two races.

Silas felt that there was only an empty shell left in his whole body, and his soul seemed to be free from this shell, watching himself busy with some things that he didn't know were meaningful.

He moved fallen stones and logs, dragged survivors out of the ruins of buildings, rushed into the fire to help rescue people, and joined many others to fetch water from the river trip after trip to put out the fire.

He knew that if he didn't use his energy in these places, he would definitely use all his energy to drive himself crazy.

A few days ago, Saranal had told him that it felt like being trapped in a quagmire, no matter how hard he tried, he could only watch things continue to develop in the direction he least wanted to see.

This is how he feels now, and this sense of powerlessness and pain must be much stronger than that of Sarannar at that time.

After returning from that desert island, he once thought that the relationship between Sarannar and him was getting better and better—this may not be his illusion, he still wants to believe that Sarannar treats him more or less With feelings, his hard work has not been unseen, but Saranar is the leader of the Dragon Clan after all, and he will not ignore the interests of the clan just to worry about his feelings.

And he has no way to criticize this at all, because he, who claims to love him deeply, also cannot follow Sarannar unconditionally and unprincipledly. At this time, he also resolutely chose to stand on the side of his own race superior.

Sears once asked him, if there was a conflict between the dragons and humans, which side would he stand on, and he answered naively, he would stand on the side of whoever treats him well, but now he realizes that it is impossible for him to do so .

No matter how well Sarannar treats him, how can he slaughter humans together with the dragons? Although he is not happy with people's ignorance and blind faith, he hates the royal family's double-decker and insidious cunning, and he also knows that the dragons can't bear it until now. , but no matter what he said, he was still a member of mankind.

No one was wrong, the fault was that he shouldn't have provoked Sarannar in the first place, even the races were different, how could they have a future?

The giant dragons now admire Sarannar's foresight. They actually thought of establishing such a useful intelligence organization as the Smiling Hand several years in advance. According to the recent secret inquiries of the Smiling Hand, they have mastered a large number of hiding places for the Dragon Slaying Crossbow. , Now it's one dozen and one accurate.

However, after all, the spies of the smiling hand are not omnipotent. There are still some dragon-slaying crossbows hidden in the corners they haven't found. The angry soldiers secretly wound up the strings in the dark, and fired at the raging dragon in the sky. Deadly bolts.

The golden dragon Makaelin saw a huge crossbow arrow flying towards him, and hurriedly dodged sideways, but was still pierced by the crossbow arrow attached to the iron chain. He let out a scream, and the barb of the crossbow arrow got stuck on his bone, making He was staggered by the inertia of his flight, fell directly from the air, and crashed onto a private house.

Makailin was struggling in the ruins of the private house. The unprecedented pain prevented him from concentrating on casting spells. He could only breathe fire at the humans who tried to get close to him, reluctantly protecting himself, but there were still some people Shooting arrows or throwing spears at him, others pulled the iron chain connected to the dragon-slaying crossbow, and dragged Makailin from the ruins of the house to the open space without shelter, causing him to struggle and scream again .

Sarannar, who had just dismantled a dragon-slaying crossbow, was the first to fly over, and sprayed dragon flames at those who attacked Makailin. After burning a few people to death, the rest fled in fright. , He didn't care about chasing him, so he landed beside the injured Jinlong and healed him with magic.

"Am I going to die here?" Makailin's voice was full of despair. He was seriously injured, not only broke several bones, but also had a big hole in his wing by the barb of the dragon-slaying crossbow. DC.

It is impossible for him to leave Silverstream City by his own strength. Although his size is not very big, even the strongest Harrog, at the peak of his physical fitness, cannot catch him and fly, let alone Now Harrog's own injuries are still not fully healed.

"You won't die, we will help you." Sarannar said reassuringly, "Be strong, Xiancel is still waiting for you to join her on Dragon Island."

"Xiancel...I...can't let her wait..." Makailin struggled to get up, and began to concentrate hard, trying to use healing magic on herself.

Healing magic is the only thing he is stronger than Sarannar, but no matter how strong the magic is, it can only temporarily stop the bleeding, and cannot heal his injury immediately. Makailin made up his mind, even if he climbed him, he would have to climb back to Xiancell He went to his side, but Saranar found four strong ropes specially made by the craftsman of the smiling hand from his own space, passed the ropes through his armpits, and tied him up.

Humans can't fly, so they can't deal with giant dragons in the sky, but the dragons that have landed on the ground are different. No matter how fierce the dragon is, it can still be killed by virtue of its superiority in numbers. Come down and specially designed weapons.

The giant crossbow that attacked Makailin had no chance to be loaded with a second crossbow bolt, so the other dragon that was rushed to it broke it into pieces with brute force, and the other dragons also shot down Makailin after seeing that He was extremely vigilant, except for the vengeful green dragon Sylvia who was brushed by a crossbow arrow and rubbed off several scales, the other dragons were not injured.

After experiencing the initial chaos, a large number of human soldiers gathered together, ready to launch a strong attack at all costs and kill the giant dragon that fell to the ground, but more and more dragons fell to Makailin's side.

The dragon-slaying crossbow in the entire Silver Stream City has been almost demolished at this moment, only two or three dragons are still patrolling the sky to find the fish that slipped through the net, and the other dragons have landed beside Makailin, protecting him So as not to let humans have an opportunity to take advantage of.

Although the claws of the dragon tribe are powerful, they are not flexible enough after all. Sarannar turned into a human form, tied a rope circle on each of Makailin's limbs, and tied knots to prevent his limbs from being strangled, and then Sarannar let The four stronger dragons each grabbed a rope and flew up together.

Before the human army launched a strong attack, Makailin was carefully lifted off the ground, and under the protection of several other dragons, he flew steadily towards the north.

"You really have a way." The green dragon Silvia said admiringly.

"This is all wisdom learned from humans." Sarannar healed the bruise on her chest with magic, and persuaded her by the way, "I also hope that you will not be blinded by hatred, although some people are stupid Humans killed your children like they hurt my sister, but there are still many commendable qualities in the human race as a whole."

"I'm afraid I will never be as sensible as you, but I will try to adapt in the future." Sylvia flapped her wings and flew up as she said.

As Silas ran near a collapsed tower, a dying woman held out her hand to him and said weakly, "Please... help me, save my child..."

He stopped and saw that the woman had been completely flattened from the waist down by a boulder that had fallen from the tower, and her child was buried in the nearby rubble with only one hand sticking out.

Silas vigorously lifted the stones and logs from the ruins, and saw a small, bloody and bloody corpse.

"Is my child... still alive?" asked the dying woman, unable to turn around.

"...yes, he's still alive." Silas lied out of nowhere.

"That's great..." the woman smiled with relief, "help me tell him... when he grows up, he will... avenge his mother..."

After saying this, she closed her eyes forever.

Silas watched her silently, not moving for a long time.

Saranar landed beside him, and the strong wind from the wings blew dust from the ground, and also the woman's hair, covering her dusty face.

"Come with me, Silas," Sarannar said.

"No." Silas' eyes remained fixed on the unknown woman.

"Do you really have to be so willful?" Sarannar's voice was a little anxious.

"It's as if you insisted on attacking Silver Brook City." Silas said calmly.

"What else could I do? That idiot's act of slashing my sister has already pushed King Heather and I into a dead end." Sarannar said in an angry tone, "And you must also Seeing those dragon-slaying crossbows, they were all calculated for this, don't we have the right to fight back?"

"So you planned today's attack a long time ago, but you didn't tell me anything, did you?" Silas finally turned his eyes away, looking at the dragon leader who was no longer calm in front of him.

"This is just an emergency plan that I don't want to use among the many plans, but human beings have pushed us to such a situation step by step, and there is no possibility of a peaceful settlement between us." Saranar also read Glancing at the dead woman, "As long as there is war, accidental injuries like this are inevitable. If I hadn't tried my best to restrain the tribe, human casualties would definitely be more than this. Next to the armory is the barracks. I can completely take silver You know that I have the ability to deal with Xicheng's army, but I resisted not doing anything, because I didn't want to quarrel with you to the point of irreversibility."

"Should I still thank you?" Silas laughed, "Enough, if you delay like this, those troops you didn't kill should come and besiege you. Don't waste time with me I won't go with you."
