Chapter 270 Volcano Dragon
"If we fail, we'll be counting on you, Ms. Ariel, to save us."
In the hotel in Ruth City, Chris stood quietly by the window, maintaining his usual silence.
Byrne looked at the woman sitting at the table, hidden in the red cloak, with a smile on his face and a respectful tone in his voice.
Ariel sat there, thinking for a moment, then looked at the two of them and said impatiently:
"Are you determined to kill the black dragon? And you insist that you don't need my help in the process?"
"Yes."
Byrne nodded insistently.
"Whether it is the former or the latter, it is something that our Fisher family insists on."
Ariel, the "Star Man", is an important member of the Roman family. She comes to help Chris and Byrne in order to fulfill the alliance between families.
According to Byrne, the monarchical inheritance that Chris obtained must be achieved through killing to ensure the final promotion.
The target they chose to kill was a black dragon with very strange behavior. It was the mortal enemy of the Fisher family and had killed some people who were important to Byrne's father, Lucius.
revenge.
It is indeed a very classic aristocratic drama.
Ariel didn't want to ask for more specific details, but she felt that the people of the Fisher family were somewhat "stubborn". The hatred of the previous generation decades ago can still be remembered until now, but the people of the Roman family would not remember the past hatred so much.
Their people prefer to look forward.
Of course, among the many noble families, there are actually quite a few families like the Fisher family that have vowed revenge, so she was not very surprised.
"Okay, if your life is in danger and you need me to rescue you, just look at me, or you can notify me in other ways."
Ariel nodded calmly, making the promise.
"As long as the enemy's strength is not much greater than mine, I will come to save you no matter what. Of course, if I can't handle the situation, then I will leave first."
After receiving the promise, Byrne bowed deeply and sincerely, and continued:
"Well, Ms. Ariel, thank you for your help. On behalf of the Fisher family, I would like to thank you in advance."
After years of getting along, he knew that although Ariel was hot-tempered and irritable, she also had good qualities, such as being trustworthy enough to keep her promises and never betraying anyone.
In a sense, she was indeed immature, but getting along with her made Byrne feel more at ease and relieved.
He took a deep breath and continued, "Next, we need to communicate with the Castleton family to avoid any trouble."
"The famous 'Burning Blood Dragon' family. According to the legends passed down, they also have dragon blood flowing in their bodies."
——
A few days later, in the largest casino in Ruth City.
"I won, hahahaha, I won again!"
Byrne, who was in disguise, kept gambling in various casinos. For seven consecutive days, he had won countless money in the casinos in Rus City!
"Haha, who else dares to bet with me? Who else? Anyone who can beat me can take away all the money I win!"
Byrne, holding a deck of cards, taunted loudly dozens of times.
"I will never go back on my promise!"
During the seven days, there were hundreds of people in Rus City, from high-ranking officials to ordinary workers, who challenged him, but no one could defeat him!
There was no way he could win because Byrne used his extraordinary powers recklessly.
There have always been all kinds of people who refuse to believe in evil and come to the casino to gamble with Byrne, but without exception they all lose miserably and leave cursing.
Occasionally, someone will want to overturn the table because they can't stand the loss, and then they will be asked to leave by the casino waiters. Violence is prohibited here.
"Who else? A bunch of cowards, hahahahaha!"
Byrne laughed deliberately, but no one around came over.
The gamblers looked at each other in bewilderment, because those who were unwilling to accept the defeat had basically lost more than once, so everyone had a clear consensus deep in their hearts.
That is, the man in front of him used his extraordinary powers to cheat!
No matter how good a person's luck and skills are, it is impossible to win hundreds of times without losing once.
In this case, the gamblers knew that they could not offend him, and of course, they did not want to go up and continue giving away money.
But people don’t know why. The owner of this big casino clearly prohibited the use of supernatural powers in the casino, but this time he did not stop it, but allowed the strange man to do what he wanted.
The casino owner is the nephew of a viscount, so he shouldn't be afraid of extraordinary people. No one can figure out where that guy came from.
Not here yet?
Byrne sighed in his heart. According to the various clues they speculated, the black dragon named "Black Ash" would react to the so-called "bad guys".
He is likely to suddenly appear nearby and force gambling games on those who have committed sins.
I have Chris and one of them is constantly cheating in the casino and the other is constantly stealing in the pub. Theoretically, there is a great chance that he will attract it.
In fact, they don't even need Black Jhin to come over and start the game actively, they just need Black Jhin to hear the wind and approach.
Byrne obtained alchemical tools that could sense dragons from the "Dragon Tamer" Aldrich. Before searching for the dragon, he had already placed those alchemical tools in many locations throughout the city.
If it moves closer to observe the situation, Byrne will immediately know its location.
At that time, even if "Black Cinder" didn't want to have contact with Byrne and Chris, it had no choice!
However, several days passed and Byrne and his men were still unsuccessful. Then they learned the latest intelligence.
"Black Ash" appeared in another nearby city.
The name of that city is Willotel, the largest city in Greenbrook Province and also the seat of the "Burning Blood Dragon" Castleton family.
The Castleton family is one of the four top families among the eight families of Syat. The head of the family, Rad Castleton, is the Marquis Rad, the "Volcano Dragon", who is a powerful monarch.
Marquis Rad inherited the blood power of the extremely powerful ancient dragon clan "Burning Dragon".
The Burning Dragon is one of the four dragon kings in the dragon legend of the world of Krad. It is said that the four ancient dragon kings all possess powerful powers at the level of Apocalypse and once ruled the entire world.
It was not until the most powerful king of the dragon clan, the "Sky Dragon", tried to ascend to the throne of God that he incurred divine punishment. The gods caused everything to fall apart and civilization was reshuffled.
Marquis Rad is one of the four strongest monarchs of Syat. He is very warlike, irritable, cruel and tyrannical.
He was almost a madman and even killed his own son in public during an argument!
However, some elders said that Marquis Rad was not originally such a person, but he paid a permanent price for using the forbidden artifact, and his personality was completely changed.
In addition to King Siat, Duke Black Iron, and Marquis Rad, the last monarch of the Siat Kingdom, an extraordinary nobleman, is the head of the family, "Mist Walker", and the head of the Abernathy family, "White Spirit".
He was an extremely mysterious person who always acted alone and rarely appeared in recent years. The last time the "White Spirit" appeared in front of everyone was during the Rhea War.
In order to continue tracking the trail of "Black Ashes", they soon rushed to Willotel.
The two continued to attract "Black Ash" according to their previous ideas.
"How long do we have to keep looking? I'll give you another ten days."
Ariel was already a little irritated.
If Chris was not about to break through to the monarch level, which would have a huge impact on the change in the power structure, it would be too beneath her status as a monarch of the Roman family to run around with two qualitatively transformed extraordinary people.
After several days in a row, Byrne still found nothing and did not find any trace of "Black Ashes".
However, he had an "unexpected gain" today.
On this day, Byrne, who had just arrived at the casino, found that it was empty, and a middle-aged man with a resolute face was waiting for him there.
"You are from the Fisher family, right?"
The middle-aged man in front of me was wearing a robe, the black and red fabric gleaming faintly in the sunlight.
His face was full of vicissitudes of life, and there was a kind of tyranny hidden in his weathered eyes, giving people a feeling of being a wild beast that one dared not approach. His expression was very firm, as if it was full of countless stories.
The middle-aged man stood with his shoulders straight, as if carrying a heavy responsibility, and his words revealed an unshakable determination.
For some reason, the next moment Byrne even felt a fear of death.
He realized it immediately!
The middle-aged man in front of him was definitely a very powerful transcendent!
"May I ask who you are, sir? I am indeed from the Fisher family, Byrne Fisher."
Byrne nodded slightly and took a deep breath, his tone revealing undisguised respect. In fact, deep down in his heart he could basically guess who he met.
In fact, when he came to this city, he already had a premonition that he would meet some big figures from the Castleton family.
He even made a plan and told Chris and Ariel what to do if they met anyone from the Castleton family.
"I am Rad Castleton, the patriarch of the Burning Blood Dragon family."
Marquis Rad introduced himself without any hesitation, sat down slowly, and said arrogantly:
"Fisherman, I heard that you are just wasting your time looking for a black dragon nearby. You may be looking for something that doesn't exist at all."
"Things that don't exist?" Byrne frowned tightly. He also felt that the situation of the black dragon was very special.
Marquis Rad stared at him with an oppressive look, and then continued.
"The legend of 'Black Ash' involves a powerful forbidden artifact."
