Chapter 0992 Black Dragon and Drow
(Thanks o((⊙﹏⊙))o and Dabai's brother for calling the two big red envelopes to reward them!)
Annelia mountains, Lokor city.
It was early morning of the day, and there were no people on the streets that should have been bustling and noisy. Even if they had to go out, the residents of the small town walked quickly against the walls on both sides, and looked up from time to time and swept across the sky, as if they were warning them.
On the not-so-tall city wall, there was a flash of cold light. Countless small town guards holding heavy crossbows were crouching behind the battlements, patrolling the distant sky carefully and cautiously.
Without the smoke of dawn and noisy crowds, the whole town was silent, like an empty city.
The spire of the 5-story magic tower erected in the center of the small town has fallen, and most of the walls of the tower disappear, revealing the misery and sadness inside. The remaining tower still has traces of burning flames, covered with deep claw marks and pits.
The mages have evacuated, leaving only a dozen mage apprentices here trying to search useful items in the magic tower. It can be seen that as long as the work is completed, they will evacuate this poor city that has been tragically destroyed without hesitation.
The city lord's mansion is half inside and outside the right side of the magic tower, which is obviously a place that the black dragons like to visit.
The once beautiful and exquisite garden is now full of devastation. A charred red flame road passes through the middle of the flower garden. At the end of the ashes is the 3-story castle where the city lord lives. The hot and sticky dragon breath of the black dragon has been extinguished, leaving only a shocking ashes road to the earth.
The location of the treasure house of the City Lord's Mansion is even more terrible. Most of the walls of the warehouse have been blown away, making everything inside appear in front of people. There are more than a dozen human-shaped scorch marks on the open space around the treasure house. Judging from the appearance, it should be the last trace left by the guard soldiers after being burned by the black dragon flame.
As for the interior of the treasure house, it is of course empty, and the greedy black dragon has transported all the supplies and treasures.
However, even such a pitiful city that has been robbed without anything can still escape the patronage of the black dragon.
"Dangdangdangdang..."
The urgent and urgent alarm bell rang again, and all the residents of the small town who were still outdoors hurriedly hid in their houses and peered at the surrounding sky through the gaps on the walls in horror.
With a loud roar, a strong and majestic body passed through the sky of the small city, projecting a huge black shadow on the hearts of the residents of the small city.
The black dragon is here again!
…………
In Tony's Daddy's Tavern, the two sides were confronting fiercely.
One side is a team of twelve foreign adventurers, including warriors, rangers, wanderers, and a level 8 mage wearing a mage robe. The highest level of this group is the captain and shield warrior of the Adventurer Team, at level 14, and most of the other members are above level 10, which is considered a very good team of adventurers.
What confronted them was the city guards sent by the City Lord's Mansion, who drew their swords and held crossbows and stared at the group of adventurers fiercely.
"We were invited to eradicate these black dragons. What are you trying to do?" The captain of the adventure team accused angrily.
"This is our home." A city guard officer in armor said calmly: "We will never allow you to make dangerous actions that endanger the city!"
At this moment, with a cold roar passing through the sky above the tavern, the spire of a nearby house was deliberately broken by the black dragon, and smashed the roof of a family in a series of thrilling loud noises.
A depressing crying sound came faintly from afar.
"You have also seen that the black dragon is raging your homeland, and we are entrusted by His Majesty the King of Eltien to help you deal with the black dragon. You..." The captain was still lobbying hard, but in front of them, the city guard officer was still unmoved.
"But when we asked His Majesty the King for help half a month ago and found nothing, I'm sorry, the city of Lokor no longer belongs to the Altien states. You are not welcome here. Go back wherever you come from, and don't look for trouble here!"
"But don't you need to deal with the Black Dragon?"
"How to deal with the black dragon is our business, and you outsiders don't need to worry about it. Four days ago, it was because of the adventures of you outsiders that Delik City had been destroyed under the crazy revenge of the black dragons. Now, you are here again. Do you want the 70,000 or 80,000 people here to be destroyed with you?"
"We are here to help you!"
"No need! The city lord has already given the order. If you do not obey the command, we have the right to detain you. If you resist, kill me!"
As both sides escalated, the atmosphere inside the house became more and more calm.
After being silent for a long time, the captain of the adventure team finally gave up helplessly.
With his wave of hand, the members of the team slowly retreated and put away the weapons in their hands again, but their vigilant eyes never relaxed for a moment. After all, no one dared to take it lightly by being aimed at more than twenty crossbows.
Seeing the adventurers retreat, the city guard officer finally breathed a sigh of relief and ordered his subordinates to retreat to the other side of the house. Although they had already lifted the combat state, the crossbow arrows in their hands did not retreat, and they were obviously not very at ease with the adventurers.
At this time, the black dragon, which was soaring over the small town and constantly showing his body, roared again with his loud voice.
"Hurry up and hand over all your treasures, otherwise your small town will be destined to be destroyed under the great Olferrell's hot dragon flame. Hurry up and hand over the treasures and offerings!"
The loud dragon roar continued to roll over the city with the devastating dragon power, shocking the residents of the small town to cover their ears and hide, and the crying sounds sounded again.
Both parties in the room couldn't help but look gloomy at the same time, and they were struggling and painful.
A sense of desolation in the evening of the west slowly rose in everyone's hearts.
Are human beings still the masters of the Kline continent? Where are the strong human beings and mages worshipped by thousands of people? Does human beings have a future?
…………
The same scenes have been staged in more than a dozen human cities one after another.
Every city can't withstand the rampage of more than a dozen terrifying underground black dragons, thus the city defense is damaged and its defense power is greatly reduced. Even if some cities have the protection of magic towers, there are few mages that make them unable to resist the siege of dragons led by the four legendary black dragons.
Therefore, when Roswall, the only legendary wizard in the Eltien states, was severely damaged and fled by the legendary black dragon, the entire city-state lost the last barrier.
When any city is removed from its defense system by the Black Dragon Group, any level 16 or 7 black dragon guy behind it can make the city frightened but helpless. Once any city dares to resist the enslavement of the Black Dragon, the cluster of black dragons will destroy the city with terrifying dragon flames.
One after another, three cities have been destroyed because they have hurt the black dragons that came to collect the offerings. There have been as many as 70,000 to 80,000 humans who have suffered casualties.
Forced by the black dragon's tyranny, the human cities around the Anelia mountains could only reject the "help" of those big city-states and surrendered to the black dragon's rule.
Following closely behind, the dark nobles from Zhuoer City have entered many human cities one after another. Although they are cruel and arrogant, the black dragon will not disturb them as long as they exist.
Under the simple strategy of carrots and sticks, countless city-states could only open the city gates in despair and no longer resist the rule of these black-skinned women from the underground.
For a time, the cities around the Anelia mountains formed a strange situation of co-governance between human aristocrats and dark aristocrats.
From this point of view, the Drow Elves tend to take root on the surface!
…………
Fendia City, the core city of Eltien.
In the huge, spacious and beautifully decorated hall, His Majesty King Toffene's deafening roar had lasted for an hour without any sign of abating.
Countless nobles, parliamentarians, chambers of commerce leaders, and local trade union presidents gathered here. Their pale faces were full of humiliation and helplessness. However, in the face of a defeated battle, no one could come up with the means and methods to solve the current dilemma of Eltien.
The Eltien countries were originally a super loose city federation. Although all the big and small cities in the kingdom respectfully called Toffene the king and Fendia the capital, everyone knew it in their minds that it was just a title and did not represent the real situation.
First of all, Fendia City is the most developed central city among many cities, and the city lord Toffeni is the biggest force with four legendary powerhouses.
Secondly, there is continuous infiltration of church forces in the south and strong advancement of the wizard guild in the north. Many loose small city-states cannot compete with these two major forces alone. Because in order to protect themselves in the cluster, many large and small city lords gathered together to elect the so-called king and form a strange city-state country.
In the past nearly a thousand years, this loose Eltien Band has barely been able to get along with each other in the gap between the two major forces and not offend each other. Since the two major forces also need a reasonable buffer zone, it struggled to survive.
But now with the invasion of powerful alien races, the loose state form makes it impossible for them to gather the troops of various city-states to drive the Drow elves out.
The northern leaders who were facing the blade of the Drow Elves kept sending people to seek help, while the southern leaders who were not yet in trouble were only willing to send a small part of their military force to support the north. In this time of chaos, the city lords of local forces were more willing to keep their troops tightly in their hands, and they would not destroy their troops for others.
