His emotions became extremely unstable, sometimes falling into deep depression and stillness, and sometimes erupting with terrifying mania and violence without warning, as if he were possessed by an evil spirit!
"Dragon Plague!"
This terrifying name, along with the shadow of self-destruction, spread like a plague throughout the capital and the entire kingdom! Fear replaced the fervor of the celebration.
Ancient prophecies were brought up again, and people whispered: This is the most vicious curse the dragon uttered before its death! It will erode the hopes of the royal family and bring utter destruction!
The power vacuum, coupled with the fear of the "Dragon Plague," plunged the kingdom into unprecedented chaos. Surviving noble factions, military generals, and local lords began fierce infighting and struggles for power and self-preservation.
The Kingdom of Aetheran, a powerful kingdom once built on the foundation of "dragon-slaying feats," collapsed in the final revenge of the black dragon Nidhogg, who sacrificed himself, and headed towards irreversible division and decline.
The name of the Black Dragon became an eternal taboo and the deepest nightmare for this land...
...
With a thought, Jiang Chan looked at the large pile of neatly stacked silver metal frames, gray-white lightweight wall panels, transparent "glass" windows, and various strange connectors and tools in the system warehouse, and let out a long sigh of relief.
Building materials! All complete!
She walked up to the crowd that was clearing the ruins and picking up broken bricks and tiles.
"Stop it, everyone."
Jiang Chan's voice made everyone stop what they were doing and look at her in confusion.
She pointed to a flatter open space not far from the riverbank, "Dig the foundation over there. Dig according to the blueprints I gave you." She took out a floor plan provided by the system, which marked the dimensions and depth requirements.
The crowd was confused, but they obeyed the "fairy's" orders unconditionally.
Jiang Chan walked to the center of the open space, away from the crowd's sight.
A slight thought.
Buzz!
The pile of futuristic building materials appeared on the open ground as if by magic! The silver metal frame gleamed with a cold luster in the sunlight, and the lightweight wall panels were stacked like mountains.
"Use these."
Jiang Chan pointed to the pile of materials that clearly did not belong to this era, and said in an unquestionable tone, "Build a house!"
The crowd stared in disbelief at the pile of "divine materials" they had never seen before! But no one dared to question it!
The old woodcutter was the first to react. He touched a smooth, cold metal frame with awe and asked in a trembling voice, "Fairy... how... how do we build a house like this?"
Jiang Chan picked up a wall panel and a frame, and following the system's user-friendly installation instructions, gave a simple assembly demonstration: "See the slot? Align it, insert it! Tighten this!"
She pointed to a threaded metal connector. Simple, straightforward, no mortise and tenon joints, no mortar!
The crowd seemed to have opened the door to a new world! Under Jiang Chan's direction, they clumsily but with reverence began to assemble. The clanging of metal replaced the clattering of bricks.
The frame was erected, the wall panels were installed, the roof was laid, and the windows were installed...
