Chapter 450: Duke of Augustus

The Dragon Forest is a forest that grows on rugged hills. The terrain is extremely complex. The low temperature all year round makes it unsuitable for ordinary people to live in, and most areas are inaccessible.

But in the middle of the forest, a north-south passage, called the Dragon Scale Avenue, was opened many years ago.

This is also the only road that can pass through the forest and is relatively safe.

From the northern part of the Principality of Lauberdil into the Dragon Scale Avenue, the further north, the terrain gradually decreases, and the temperature is relatively warmer.

The trees on both sides of the avenue are dense and dense, and the roars of beasts can be heard from time to time, including dangerous beasts and monsters.

Today, the giant dragon finally appeared in the giant dragon forest again.

Aegon, Galaderos, and Sindara, the three-headed dragons soared over the forest. The beasts in the forest felt the terror of the dragon for a long time. Wherever they went, birds and beasts were everywhere like flies without heads. Running around, screaming in fear.

There were also some beasts slumped to the ground, shivering, looking at the Master in the sky from the cracks in the shade of the trees.

However, the dragon did not land down to feast, and flew over the head in an instant.

Soon after, more voices came.

Many beasts are hiding in the dark and observing the Dragon Scale Avenue. According to previous experience, this is a good opportunity to hunt for food, but more and more humans appear in the field of vision, and everyone exudes a powerful breath, so many humans gather Action, the instinct of the beast makes them turn around and run away.

Ren rides a bronze Pegasus and runs on the ground with the spear wing knights.

The Voice of Everything heard the movement in the depths of the forest, only the sound of beasts fleeing, and there was no enemy in ambush, so he withdrew his gaze.

A whole army of 12,000 people could not see the end on the Dragon Scale Avenue at a glance.

In the middle of the team is Emilys. She rode on a handsome dragon-blooded war horse, and was closely protected by the scale-driving blood guards. Her beautiful face was full of energy, and her gestures showed a majestic and noble demeanor. .

"She looks more and more like a real queen." Ren secretly said in his heart.

Emily noticed his gaze, turned her head, and the two looked at each other, and a sweet smile appeared on her face.

Ren also nodded slightly.

The march of the Dragonborn army was fast.

The giant dragon explored the way in front, and the Ultramarines rode the fiery dragon to follow on both sides of the army, patrolling from the forest at all times, keeping vigilance, the expected raids and ambush did not happen, not even a single enemy was found, and there was nothing wrong all the way. .

It only took half a day for the dragonborn army to safely pass the Dragon Scale Avenue.

Coming out of the dragon forest, the field of vision suddenly became extremely wide, the terrain was flat, and the distance of dozens of miles could be seen at a glance, and the climate became warmer.

"Drogon Castle has arrived!"

Ren heard the voice of Varogan who was beside Emilys.

His expression was a little excited, as if he had returned to his hometown after a long absence; Astan, who had followed Emily for many years, also had red eyes, showing that his emotions were not calm.

Emily looked at the land, her chest heaving slightly, and she didn't speak for a long time.

Ren can understand their mood.

It has been more than 40 years since the fall of the Drogonburg Dynasty. The former family domain is no longer called the Drogonburg Duchy, and most of the lord families who used to be loyal have also died out. After Mark usurped the throne, he canceled the title of the Duchy of Fort Drogon, re-titled the lord, and called this territory the king's territory, which means the king's territory.

Wangling is the smallest among the seven major duchies of Congatro, but thanks to the erosion of two rivers, the land of Wangling is the most fertile, and the terrain is flat, with a flat river, and even a hill that is higher than a microsecond can not be found. In addition, the east is close to the sea, and the Longya Bay formed by the mouth of the river is the second largest trading port after Barosque City. It is only frozen in winter in the four seasons of the year.

The most habitable land in the entire kingdom is the king's land.

With the smallest area, it supports the largest population, with a total of more than 13 million people, accounting for one-third of the total population of the kingdom!

In stark contrast to the king's land is the Principality of Brandon, which has the largest area, more than a quarter of the kingdom, but the coldest temperature, most of which are tundra. .

One of the two principalities is in the north and the other is in the middle of the kingdom.

Congatro has a saying that has been circulated for thousands of years, whoever conquers the Duchy of Fort Drogon will choke the kingdom by the throat.

Now, the restoration of the Dragonborn is only the most critical step away!

After conquering Kingsland, the capital, and controlling the king's land, the remaining two Duchy of Atis and Duchy of Brandon in the north are nothing to be afraid of!

The dragonborn army rested outside the dragon forest for half an hour. After recovering their strength, Emilys commanded loudly:

"Keep going!"

The road in Wangling was much wider than the Dragon Scale Avenue in the forest. Most of the roads were repaired, and some sections were paved with flagstones, which made the marching speed a little faster.

In less than a quarter of an hour, a city next to the Dragon Forest appeared in front.

"Dragon's Back City."

The city is built on a hill extending from the forest. It runs from the southwest to the northeast. It is not very steep, and the altitude is only a few dozen meters. From a distance, it looks like the back of a dragon crawling on the ground. Named Longji City.

Dragon's Back City is the domain of the Felton family. Viscount Felton has only been granted the fief for 40 years. It was during the usurpation war that he made his fortune and made a fortune and gained the canonization of Mark.

There are not many residents in the city, only 20,000 to 30,000 people.

At this moment, Longji City was already in chaos. The residents screamed in panic, turned their backs on their horses, and ran to hide in their homes. On the city wall, which was not too high, the guards were also facing a formidable enemy.

The city wall is built around the hill where Longji City is located, and a circle is enclosed at the foot of the mountain.

Ren looked at the highest point of Dragon's Back City, where there was a castle.

The Eye of the Soul zoomed in and quickly found a middle-aged man in a noble costume at the height of the castle. Because he was too far away, he could not see his strength, but he was obviously an extraordinary person. It was mentioned in the information that this Viscount was a Legendary Elementary.

The giant dragon roared in the sky, and the Ultra Warriors also rode the fiery dragon to hover in the sky.

Viscount Felton's face was full of despair.

The dragonborn army stepped on the farmland that had not been harvested in autumn, and the centaur rushed to the front, spreading out to both sides, and surrounded the entire Dragon's Back City.

Although they were in a low position and wanted to attack the city upwards, the momentum of the Dragonborn army completely overwhelmed the enemy.

The entire Longji City was even more silent, and the battle was about to break out.

Emily didn't hesitate at all.

"attack!"

As soon as she gave her order, the gate of Longji City opened.

Viscount Felton walked out of the city under the arches guarded by several high-level supernatural beings. Waving the white flag, he approached cautiously and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty the Queen, the Felton family is willing to be loyal to Her Majesty!"

Following his declaration of surrender, the guards on the wall also dropped their weapons.

The dragonborn army's attack came to a halt.

People are waiting for Emily's order. The residents of the city and the guards on the city walls are trembling with fear, waiting for the judgment of fate.

However, Emily's voice was not heard.

Viscount Felton had already knelt down, he didn't dare to look up, and he never heard the other party's response, he couldn't help panicking, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Ren looked at Emilys, but saw her face gloomy.

The eye of the soul saw the slightest hint of red, which was an emotion of anger and hatred.

"Lord Artans, are you sure it's him?" Emily asked in a low voice. Artans nodded expressionlessly, and Varogan next to him also gritted his teeth.

Ren understood when he saw the situation.

Most of the noble lords of the king's lords are the heroes who are currently rebelling with Mark. They personally participated in the war to overthrow the Drogonburg dynasty, and their hands must be stained with the blood of the dragonborn. Even if they are not the culprit, they are also Mark's accomplices. .

Others can forgive, but not these murderers.

"kill him."

"And his family, not a single one."

Emily finally responded and issued an order, but this order was like a thunderbolt in the ears of Viscount Felton.

"Lord Viscount, run!"

The guard next to him shouted in horror, but the shouting stopped abruptly.

"what……"

In the sound of gunshots, warm blood splashed on Viscount Felton's face, and he woke up at this time, and fled into Dragon's Back City without looking back in horror, even ignoring his own guards, and shouted: "Close the gate! Close the gate! Don't let them rush in!"

Before the guards could close the city gate, a series of huge fireballs flew.

Boom!

The violent explosion sounded throughout Longji City, the high temperature flames burned everything, the city gate collapsed, and more than a dozen guards hid in the sea of ​​​​fire, with no bones left.

Viscount Felton was also blown up by the fireball, but he was a legend, and his resistance was far beyond ordinary people. He forcibly swallowed the blood in his mouth and landed smoothly, and continued to escape to his castle. He was going to take his family and treasure and escape through the tunnel in the castle.

Fortunately, he had prepared both hands in advance and had already called all his family members.

However, before taking a few steps, there was a rain-like gunshot in the sky. Viscount Felton tried desperately to escape, but was still shot. There was severe pain in his back, and he involuntarily fell on the street.

He looked up and saw the enemy who attacked him, a group of tall warriors riding on flying dragons.

The soul guns in the hands of these fearsome foes spew flames.

Wherever the muzzle was pointed, the guards of Longji City fell like reaping wheat, their bodies were torn apart by bullets, and they died on the spot. Some of the guards who reacted quickly hid in the house, but still could not escape the disaster. The bullets shot directly through the roof and walls, the building collapsed with a bang, and the screams of the guards before they died were heard.

"This……"

Viscount Felton's eyes widened, he had never seen such an enemy, shooting from the sky from such a distance, how to fight this?

At this moment, he knew that King Mark was finished!

Boundless regret swallowed up Baron Felton's heart. He was lying on the street, helplessly watching a group of centaurs rush into Longji City, the ground shook, and one hard horse's hoof stepped on it. This is what he saw in his eyes. the last scene.

It took less than ten minutes to capture Longji City.

Viscount Felton's castle is not big, and it was built on the highest point in the city. Although there are dozens of extraordinary people in the family who swear to resist, but before thousands of troops, these resistances are not much stronger than white paper. , was directly overwhelmed by the centaurs.

The merciless killing in the castle continued for several minutes, and the Felton family was removed from Congatro.

When Ren entered the castle with Emilys, he saw more than a dozen noble corpses in the hall, some of them were still teenagers, and there was a look of fear on their young and immature faces.

But her expression didn't change, she looked away after a glance, walked past the corpse without saying a word, and sat on the main seat of the hall.

Varogan ordered: "It's all burned."

"Yes."

The Scaled Blood Guards moved the corpse out, and the open space outside the castle soon burst into flames.

Emily looked at the blood on the ground, and didn't come back until Ren reminded her. She sat up straight and said with a relaxed expression: "Ren, Dragon's Back City will become your territory."

"I know." Ren nodded.

The territory of Longji City is close to the Dragon Forest. Outside the city, there is a hidden passage that has been opened for only a hundred years, leading to the interior of the forest. There is the "Politosi Mine", one of the largest mithril mines in the world. Accompanied by a large number of source crystal ore.

Of course, Yuanjing is called "heavy silver" in Congatro.

The Felton family was canonized in Dragon's Back City and managed the mithril mine for Mark. This mine has huge output and extremely high profits, and provides Mark with a lot of money every year.

When Emily was in Glamorgan, she promised that she would hand over all the mithril mines to Ren.

But her next words surprised Ren.

"In addition to Dragon's Back City, Stream City by the sea to the east, and the five territories ceded by the Lauberdale family, I will all confer to you." Emily looked at Ren, her voice was not loud, her tone was very It was also calm, obviously after careful consideration, but the content of the words made everyone present stunned.

Ren was also a little caught off guard.

Needless to say, Dragon's Back City is also a viscount territory to the east of Stream City. Both territories are bordered by the Dragon Forest, plus the five territories in the north of Lauberdil, which completely includes the Dragon Forest. ~lightnovelpub.net~ formed a huge territory no less than the Principality of Fisher.

Even, this territory is larger than the shrunken Duchy of Lauberdil, with a larger population and more fertile land.

This is no longer the earldom that was promised, but a duchy!

"His Majesty!"

Varogan couldn't help but speak out, Emily had not discussed it with herself beforehand, which made him worry.

No matter which country you are in, the most important thing for the lords and nobles is always the territory, a huge territory that is enough to rank sixth in the kingdom, and its value is immeasurable. .

If Rennes accepts, Congatro will give birth to the eighth principality.

According to Congatro's aristocratic practice, this newly established duchy is called the "Principality of Augustus", and Rennes is the first "Duke of Augustus"!
