Chapter 666: Confused and stunned
After the war, Blackrock City was in ruins, with people cleaning up the battlefield everywhere, and people from all kinds of professions running around busy doing their own things to clean up the mess.
Although Blackrock City is in a mess now, compared with the imperial capital where almost four-fifths of its area has been reduced to ruins, they can be said to be quite lucky.
Even more fortunately, Black Rock City has added two new city wonders.
Maybe we can make back today’s losses through tourism in the future!
"So, can someone tell us what exactly happened?"
Standing blankly beside the teleportation portal, Fudorin and her group, no, the dragon was disheveled in the wind.
"Hey, stop blocking the door, there are others trying to get out!"
These dozens of dragons blocked the portal, causing dissatisfaction among the adventurers who came out later.
"Oh, sorry."
Fudorin and the others obediently spread out to the side to make way for the adventurers entering and leaving the portal, with confusion still in their eyes.
Perhaps it was because the brain was unable to successfully process the complex situation in front of it for a while, which caused the system to crash and made these dragons become well-behaved children.
You can't blame them. Anyone who sees this situation would find it strange.
Everyone originally thought that they would face a heroic and tragic final battle after they came out, fighting for life and death with their fallen relatives and friends in the dark, and encountering a series of heroic epic scenes including but not limited to turning against relatives, killing infected teammates, covering each other's escape, etc.
In the end, either the plague is driven out in triumph and victory is celebrated, or the battle is fought on a sea of blood and corpses until the last dragon is infected by the plague.
However, what is the situation now?
Didn't those thugs, who were actually taking advantage of the situation to loot Zero Yuan Gou and were being chased by the guards, and the crowd of onlookers who were just watching the fun and cheering for the trouble, seem a little too relaxed? A closer look revealed that the onlookers were all from the Kingdom of Anor. Were all the people there like this?
Is this the kind of laughter a post-battle background crowd should be making? Have you guys had too many Happy Eggs? Act a little more pathetic, you bastards!
Perhaps this is because the people of Anor have become hardened by the Black Hawk Rebellion and various disasters.
But even if we ignore the relaxed atmosphere of the Anor people over there, the situation in Blackrock City seems very strange.
What does that golden symbol on the ground that covers half of the city and goes several inches underground mean?
Where did the thick magical fog that was about to cover the entire Warrior Kingdom go?
The most important thing is
Fuduolin pointed at the particularly eye-catching golden tree in the distance, her lips and eyes twitching as she asked, "Have you seen that thing before?"
Abei slapped himself and looked up. The golden tree was still standing there. He rubbed his eyes and muttered to himself:
"It's not an illusion, nor is it a dream. How did the golden tree really come out?"
In the blink of an eye, he came to a conclusion that shocked himself:
"Could it be that the Thane Dungeon has assimilated the entire Blackrock City?!"
"Your guesses are completely wrong. If you dragons have time to waste on idle speculation, you might as well go to the imperial capital and help with disaster relief."
A dragon knight who had been forced to land here due to the "battle" between Radagon and Yunka said to the dragons:
"The imperial capital is almost in ruins now, and there's a severe shortage of manpower. If you could go and help, we'd be very grateful."
Finally meeting an acquaintance, Abe quickly grabbed the dragon knight and asked about the current situation.
The dragon knight told them the whole story.
"The Sion dungeon went berserk, and a red-haired hunk emerged and beat Yunka to death."
"Those pitch-black dragons were drawn into the Thane dungeon by the roars of dragons and haven't emerged yet."
"Your beloved clan leader has been infected and is currently stuck in the dungeon."
The dragon rider's story finally made the dragons understand what had happened.
"Abe, I feel a little dizzy now," Moore said, holding his head. "It's like when I was reading a book and suddenly skipped dozens of chapters and couldn't understand anything anymore."
However, although everyone's minds were still confused, after the explanation, everyone finally understood the current situation.
"That means Grandpa and the others are now in the dungeon with the dragon. We don't know what happened to them, and we can't do anything about it since we can't find them."
Abe rubbed his head while reviewing the current situation. Although he wanted to tell himself that this complicated situation was just a dream and fall asleep, the healing grace from the golden tree made him feel more energetic.
"Oh, okay, I think I know what we should do now." Abe exhaled and said:
"Since the battle between the clan leader and his men caused the damage to the imperial capital, we must also shoulder some responsibility. Call out everyone who is still in the underground city, and let's go to the imperial capital together to provide relief."
It was obvious that the disaster could be blamed entirely on the dragon, but Abemore and the others did not do so.
They have lived together with the people of this land for a long time and have long learned to share joys and sorrows.
Moreover, for some reason, after he came out, he suddenly felt that the laziness that forced him to give up had disappeared, which made him full of energy, and the other dragons must have felt the same way.
So, under their call, most of the dragons that entered the dungeon walked out of the dungeon, ready to carry those who volunteered to go to the imperial capital to help in Blackrock City.
"Is Mom in there too?"
Fudorin looked back at the portal to the Senn dungeon, and after realizing that she had no way to solve the problem, she gritted her teeth, turned around and left with the main force.
She only hoped that the Sean Dungeon would show mercy. If a miracle could happen, she really hoped to see her mother healthy and normal when she returned.
Fudorin kept listening to Luluwo's chatter, saying that the Sen Dungeon was a place that could trigger miracles, although daily interactions with this dungeon would make people break down and curse.
But when you really encounter difficulties in life, going to this dungeon will definitely bring you miracles that will make you laugh.
But before she could see her healthy mother, Fuduolin had to do one thing:
Help her mother clean up the mess as much as possible.
"Grandpa, you must hold on," Abei prayed beside the portal.
"Although it's scary inside Thane, you should be used to being beaten. You must come back alive."
Everyone sent their most sincere blessings to the people they cared about.
Most of the problems in Blackrock City are damaged buildings. Recruiting a group of civil magicians can solve the problem well, and it won’t take long to rebuild the city.
But the situation is different in the imperial capital. The damage to buildings, which would be a major loss elsewhere, is actually the smallest problem for the imperial capital.
When Abei and his companions arrived above the imperial capital and saw that most of the place had been reduced to ruins, their mood suddenly became very complicated. The joy that had just been brought to their hearts by the Black Stone City quickly disappeared. The shadow they cast scared countless people to tears. People probably thought that the mad dragon had returned.
However, when they saw clearly that it was Abe and the others, the commotion gradually subsided.
The volunteers riding on the dragons went out to start disaster relief, and the dragons also began to help based on their own strengths. With their strong bodies, they were natural engineering machines.
The entire disaster relief process went quite smoothly and the people welcomed their arrival.
There was no such melodramatic incident where people blamed Abe and his friends for things like "You dragons fought and damaged my house/property/family". If this happened, it would really raise one's blood pressure.
In addition to the dragon clan, the army, adventurers and people from all walks of life who were still able to move participated. Temud and Lanler also arrived with all their men, fully demonstrating the unity of the Warrior Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, the damage is so severe that it is impossible to calculate the losses right now."
Sitting in the ruins of the palace, King Bontowu looked at the sky with melancholy. The guards beside him who were reporting things were not sure whether they had heard what he said.
In fact, Bontowu was listening and he also understood the situation.
In addition to the damage to a large area of buildings, the more serious point is that -
The death of a highly gifted magical being.
They all became victims of Yunka's transformation and nutrients for its growth, and their spiritual power was drained away.
In the eyes of people outside, people whose mental power has been sucked dry will die immediately, but there are still a considerable number of people whose mental power has been hastily absorbed when Unka focused on quantity rather than quality, and the absorption was not complete, so they did not die.
However, they became completely vegetative and nothing could wake them up.
These people were the future pillars of the warrior nation who emerged from the warrior reform, but they were completely wiped out.
The achievements of years of soldier reform also disappeared.
It seems that there is nothing wrong with Yuenka taking away the fruits of the reforms he initiated.
It is difficult to say what attitude Bontowu has towards Yunka now. It is definitely mostly negative emotions, but too many things happened today and they were too complicated, so he emptied his mind for a while.
After deploying the military's disaster relief work, he now sits here in a daze.
The dream of making the warrior nation great again seemed to have been shattered with the drama that Unka had orchestrated, and it is likely that it would not be realized during his reign.
Is it because he trusts Younka too much?
After this incident, he could no longer look directly at the warrior reform and fighting spirit conversion technology brought by that guy.
Moreover, after what happened to Youenka, it is hard not to suspect that there are some pitfalls in the fighting spirit conversion technology.
He no longer dared to push forward the soldier reform.
"Your Majesty, although Yunka has committed heinous crimes, his research results are not wrong. With a little guidance, he can be put on the right path."
A familiar voice came from the side. Bangtow turned around and saw a tall and thin young magician with a proud expression on his face.
But isn't he sweating a bit too much? It feels like he's been running for a long time.
"Are you Yunka's apprentice?" Bangtuo recognized the visitor.
"Yes, my Lord Edgar."
Edgar bowed respectfully and said:
"It is the apprentice's necessary responsibility to make amends for the mistakes of his former mentor."
