Just as "nations often perish because of their weakness, but the Han Dynasty perished because of its strength".

As dragons were once the dominant species on the continent, every race has countermeasures against them.

There is no other reason, these dragons are just too strong.

In the Middle Ages, royal families of all countries had a hard time with the Vatican because they could not stand how powerful the Vatican was.

Dragons are even worse.

Someone did a study out of boredom, and found that over the past two hundred years, more than 35% of the new research results in the mage, alchemist, and potion master circles used dragon or sub-dragon body materials.

Even dragon dung has a use.

This led to a large number of fearless traveling merchants running to the pure-blooded dragons, throwing money around like crazy in exchange for all kinds of junk materials that the dragons didn't want.

Most of the time, dragons feed on meat, but even if there is no meat to eat, they can still get some nutrition by chewing the ground.

The ones that he relied on were the two spells, Iron Stomach and Pica.

When Olivia explained this spell that could almost be regarded as unique to dragons, Louis finally understood.

He finally understood the source of Rimuru's crazy devouring effect.

When Louis has nothing to do, he has the habit of browsing various miscellaneous books in the world.

Judging from the adaptability to the environment alone, slime is definitely at the top.

They can adapt to the environment wherever they grow, and even evolve into various strange slimes at once.

There are dung mountain slimes, blood slimes, and even healing slimes that are naturally able to synthesize healing drugs.

Among them, there are various blood slimes that evolved by eating a large amount of corpses of some powerful race.

Rimuru was able to obtain dragon-specific spells, which definitely was not done by gnawing on the skin of a dragon's feet. He must have directly digested part of the dragon's corpse.

In this light, the problem of Dragonbone Plain is a bit strange.

Missing herders.

Traces of border monsters.

There once were sapphire dragonlets roaming.

The alien species Rimuru was born.

The death of Grace's parents.

The monsters are coming down the mountain.

Sapphire Dragon Plague.

…

A series of clues extend.

Louis became more determined to go and take a look.

As for the Little Swan...

Little Swan showed a confident smile on his face: "Sister Wang, mobilize a group of Raven Guards to take a look. After all, our prince is going to train, we can't let him fall into danger!"

The Raven Guard, one of the Emperor's legions, are an efficient cleanup unit that is little known to outsiders.

Very strong.

Beatrice hesitated for a moment and looked at Louis.

She was afraid that if she made arrangements on her own, she would hurt Louis' self-esteem.

However, Louis clapped his hands:

“Great!”

Seeing this, Beatrice smiled and agreed to her sister's suggestion.

Little Swan was very satisfied that Huoguo actually knew how to cooperate with him, and continued, "Louis, you have passed the first stage of the prince's trial."

"Now is the second level. Please continue to take risks and try your best to explore the anomalies in the Dragon Bone Grassland and figure out the logic behind each clue."

"That's no problem for you, right?"

Louis nodded and took on the task.

Louis: "As expected of everyone's little swan, I was just wondering how to intervene in the grassland incident. Now I have arranged the combat force for me. Watch me collect evidence right away!"

Olivia: "Hey, I'm really smart! The dragon on the prairie is probably not a baby dragon that went down the mountain because it was worried about being entangled by its mother.

Once I have gathered enough evidence in the Smoking Mountains, I will come back with my mighty sword!"

"My first wife/Sister Wang will never die in my hands!" ×2 The two funny guys smiled at each other.

Then Olivia snorted and turned her head away.

Hasn’t Huoguo started using his brain recently?

This time I will transfer you away from the core area of ​​the incident! See how you can still be so prominent as before? "I will definitely find the source of the problem."

Louis believes in his future self.

Olivia glanced at Louis secretly.

The heavy full body armor made it impossible to see his expression, but Little Swan was convinced that the face under the helmet must be full of panic!

But it doesn’t matter, the Sapphire Dragon Plague is not your problem.

Just fish peacefully on the Dragon Bone Grassland, and then watch me lead you to fly! Wow! The little swan got excited when he thought of that scene! "Just try your best to complete your trial."

"If you encounter any strange phenomena, just contact the Raven Guard to handle it."

"It would be even better if we have a chance to kill that sapphire dragon and put Alice's worries to rest!"

“…”

The little swan said a lot of blah blah, and then noticed that Sister Wang, who was standing next to Louis, had a darkening expression on her face.

She shuddered subconsciously, shrank her neck, and decisively changed her words: "Ahem... Anyway, just do your best."

That’s not what I really want to say!

Beatrice sighed and turned to look at Louis.

My sister is really acting a little crazy this time.

Louis is also a newbie, isn't this making things difficult for him?

Seeing Louis' helmet slightly lowered, he took out a notebook and started writing and drawing.

Beatrice coughed and said:

"Louis, just try to successfully hunt the dryad."

Louis said, "It's okay. Little Olivia's advice is pretty good."

Louis subconsciously tried to scratch his hair, but what he touched was a hard helmet.

Beatrice was helpless.

Your own silly sister is acting up, yet you still dote on her so much.

What Louis was thinking at this moment was that this matter was closely related to Beatrice's safety, that is, it was directly related to his own life.

So whether for yourself or for her, it is necessary to do these things.

So he said without hesitation:

"And it's all for you."

A rub.

The beautiful and moist face of the heroic girl blushed.

Louis' heart suddenly skipped a beat.

It turns out that "a woman's blush is better than a long dialogue" is true.

Then he realized belatedly what he had said and what his first wife had misunderstood.

He coughed lightly.

I wanted to explain something, but in the end I said nothing.

"This is good too," he couldn't help but think.

Fortunately, Beatrice managed her facial expressions very well. She quickly suppressed her restlessness and her expression returned to normal.

Finally, the scene was less awkward.

She whispered, "By the way, Louis, there is something I want to tell you about the White Tower and the Alchemist Guild..."

…The next day…

Location: Adventurer's Guild.

Alice, who had just arrived here, saw Louis, wearing full body armor, sitting in the corner in the posture of Commander Ikari intervening.

"Caesar, what are you doing sitting here, in a daze?"

Louis said nothing, still maintaining his posture without moving.

Alice was a little confused. She walked up and lifted up his helmet, then saw a pair of wandering eyes.

"What's wrong?"

Louis said faintly: "I feel a little confused in life?"

"Speak human language, don't force me to chop you."

Louis looked at Alice with dull eyes: "The most confusing time in life is when there are three cold small goals lying in the storage ring, and it is very likely that they will become 40 small goals in a year."

“But I don’t know how to spend it.”
