Chapter 766 Dragon Island Arrives

Although he was puzzled by the sudden appearance of the giant dragon, Anvis was not ready to investigate further for the time being. Instead, he took Fiona to secretly contact Duke Carrot.

The Duke was ecstatic when he received the news from Avis and Fiona, but considering the issue of confidentiality, after a brief discussion, the Duke finally arranged for his clone to secretly bring Avis and Fiona back to the family.

As for what Anvis said about Pomona's suspected connection with foreign enemies, Duke Carrot was skeptical. After all, he was rescued by Pomona and the family guardians.

At the same time, he saw Pomona very clearly. He was proud, cold, stubborn, and sometimes unscrupulous in order to achieve his goals. But although his personal ideas were relatively radical, he would never betray the Olivendi family for personal gain.

Rather, he was the most radical in his loyalty to the family. If someone wanted to make a deal with him that would harm the interests of the Olivendi family, the result would only be that Pomona would turn against him on the spot.

However, the Duke did not ignore the many doubts mentioned by Anvis, but went to various scenes to check them out in person, and used time-reversal spells to spy on the situation at that time.

Unfortunately, the enemy was obviously well prepared, and had made special arrangements to block time-rewinding spells when they were first deployed.

In the end, the Duke, who had gained nothing, could only report the situation to Anvis and told him not to worry too much, as he would keep an eye on Pomona recently.

If there is really something wrong with the other party, then it will definitely be revealed.

But Pomona seemed to be worried that his previous behavior would be exposed. Although Fiona had returned to the family, he only came to visit her at the beginning, expressed his concern and left without much communication.

He behaves very normally in his daily life, and even Avis can't find any fault with him.

Therefore, Avis could only hide his worries in his heart.

With Duke Carrot and other ninth-level family members here, Fiona won't be in any trouble for the time being.

Besides, these are things that the girl needs to face on her own in the end. He now needs to prepare to officially break through to become a ninth-rank prophet.

Gray Fog's breakthrough this time was blocked by the Stargazer's arrangement, resulting in the breakthrough process being artificially "slowed down", revealing many details, which was equivalent to providing a standard breakthrough demonstration for many predictors who were preparing for a breakthrough.

Avis also benefited greatly. If he was only theoretically confident of breaking through to the ninth-level prophet before, now he was sure that as long as the stargazer did not stop him, he would definitely be able to break through.

Of course, it was impossible for the Stargazer not to stop him, and he would eventually try to see what kind of obstacles the Stargazer had set for him.

At first, Avis was worried that the Continental Magic Council would reveal that he was the leader of the Circle of Truth and that Bishop Anil and Marquis Draka were under his control.

To this end, he was ready to play dumb, and his clone was already prepared in advance, ready to be thrown out whenever there was a ninth-level inspection.

However, after waiting for a long time, there was still silence from the Magic Council, and there was no movement in the daily Magic Times. It seemed that the Stargazer did not let others expose his secret.

This could be a gesture of goodwill from the stargazer to him, or it could be that the stargazer felt that there was little point in doing so, or that the timing was not right.

In short, everything was calm as if nothing had happened. Anvis returned to Pamir College normally, studying hard with his seniors and juniors, making progress every day.

But after a few days of this, the situation in the empire changed drastically again.

The scene that Anvis saw that day, where three golden dragons cut through the clouds and soared towards the Frey Province, finally came to fruition.

The Aslade family suddenly and loudly announced to the entire empire that the legendary [Dragon Island] has officially returned to the main material world, and has reached a deep strategic cooperation relationship with the Aslade family. It will send several ninth-level dragons to temporarily affiliate with the Aslade family.

All of a sudden, the power of the Aslade family completely overwhelmed the other three families and became the leader of the four major families in the empire.

At the same time, when the eldest prince almost completely suppressed the fourth princess in the civil war, an unexpected troublemaker appeared.

The seventh prince, Willer Lo Augustine, whose current strength is only at the seventh level, suddenly sent out a large number of ninth-level warriors to launch a surprise attack on the eldest prince's army.

As a result of his deliberate plan, the eldest prince was caught off guard and suffered heavy losses. Not only was he seriously injured by the sneak attack, but two of his ninth-rank guests were also killed.

Even if these ninth-order beings have their own backup plans and there is hope for them to be resurrected in the distant future, it is impossible for them to participate in this battle for the throne.

When the news came out, the whole world was shocked.

Everyone was curious about where the Seventh Prince got so many ninth-level masters. The truth was not revealed until the next meeting of the House of Lords was held and the Seventh Prince walked into the meeting room half a body length behind the head of the Aslade family.

You know, the position of the nobles is very particular, especially in such important occasions. As a lord, even if his own strength is low, he must not fall behind his followers, even if that follower is at the ninth level.

In the case of the Seventh Prince, many people understood at a glance that the Seventh Prince was actually just a puppet supported by the Aslade family, and the real person in charge was still the head of the Aslade family.

This made many old nobles who knew the inside story frown secretly. The behavior of the Aslaide family had blatantly violated the agreement between the four major families and Emperor Gloria during the founding of the country: the four major families were not allowed to interfere in royal affairs.

Simply put, due to the return of Dragon Island, the Aslade family has become arrogant, and they do have the capital to be arrogant.

Currently on Dragon Island, there are more than ten ancient dragons of various types whose strength has reached the ninth level, and there are dozens of dragons above the ninth level.

The three-headed golden dragon king can even use some of the power left behind by the legendary ancient dragons in the history of Dragon Island to temporarily reach the limit-breaking level of strength.

Such a terrifying force, even if only a part of it wants to go to the Yar Continent, cannot be contended by any single force except the three major forces of the continent and the Magic Council.

As an external force, under normal circumstances, if the dragons of Dragon Island wanted to intervene in the civil war of the empire, they would only temporarily unite to face the outside world. But with the identity of the Aslade family, the external enemy suddenly turned into an internal struggle.

Because the Aslaide family is a family of golden dragon blood, and the dragon knight is Aslaide's iconic profession, and there are even "rumors" that it is related to Dragon Island. Now it is just a confirmation of this connection.

At the same time, the Aslade family was also holding talks with the other three families in private to gain their support.

As long as the three major families support the actions of the Aslade family, then in return, the Aslade family is willing to share the opportunity to sign contracts with the ninth-level and seventh- and eighth-level dragons.
