Crossing The Dragon: The King Sacrifices The Princess At The Beginning

The royal capital of Airland is called Dragon Heart City.

This magnificent city has a history of thousands of years.

In fact, the Airland Empire was not called Airland before.

One thousand and five hundred years ago.

It's called the St. Ellis Empire.

However, a dispute between the crown prince and the prince later broke out within the empire, which eventually led to the empire being split into two. The elder brother occupied the most prosperous royal city, while the younger brother was driven out and became the ruler of the other half of the empire. They were equally powerful, and everyone With its own followers, the St. Ellis Empire fell apart and became the current Iryland Empire and the Sloat Empire.

Then came those twists and turns of the story.

For example, the prosperous dragon tribe invaded and ruled a large number of human empires. Airland II relied on the secrets left by the St. Ellis Empire to complete the feat of slaying dragons and established the real Airland dragon-slaying empire.

When he saw the city wall that was nearly thirty feet high and piled with various defensive equipment, Su Nian had to sigh at the power of the Ireland Empire.

The left and right city walls spread to the end of the horizon, and you can't see where the end is. Every ten meters you can see a tower carved with a flying dragon. The head of the flying dragon flashes with a purple magic halo. If you guessed correctly, There should be a magic cannon hidden in it.

The mottled city wall is covered with sharp spikes, and you can even see rust-like brown on these spikes. This color is the deepest at the bottom of the city wall, and becomes lighter as you go up, gradually transitioning to the black and gray of the rock. Judging from the pieces of cloth on these spikes and the remaining dried bone fragments, this city wall must have blocked a large number of enemies.

The city gate is about twenty feet high, with pits on the surface and traces of the impact of the siege ram. The overall material is meteorite iron, and the surface is inlaid with keels as decoration.

A huge dragon head hangs above the city gate. The deep black eyes are like an abyss, staring coldly at the visitor. The strong wind pours into the eyes, making a shrill roar. Judging from the lines and shape of the head, it should come from To an adult white dragon.

There is a magnificent statue erected on both sides of the city gate.

One of them is a knight holding a sword and shield, who looks extraordinary, and the other is a mage wearing a robe and holding a staff. Stars are shining in his eyes, and the staff is pointed directly at the sky.

Interestingly, the mage and knight have identical faces.

If I guessed correctly, it should look like Airland VI.

Augustus Crohn.

Su Nian smiled coldly, thinking that Crohn was quite naughty.

What does this mean? Does it mean that I am a knight and a mage?

But he is obviously just a Skyshattering Knight...

"Your Majesty Watrous, this is the capital of Airland, our Dragon Heart City! It is said that after slaying the dragon, the ancestor Emperor Airland II cut open the dragon's heart in order to pay tribute to his biological mother, and spread the blood of the dragon's heart all over the city. Every corner of it has the name of Dragon Heart City."

Everyone stood under the tall city gate.

Forbes introduced the origin of Longxin City. His voice was full of pride and joy. This was the honor of a citizen of a powerful country.

Su Nian felt that the legend might be true.

Because just by stepping on this land, he seemed to vaguely hear the wail of the dragon, but to be honest, he did not sympathize with the dragons who were killed.

Everyone is an adult dragon, and they must pay the price for what they have done. They must either be strong enough to suppress everything, or recognize that they have their tail between their legs and get out, or wait to be killed.

There is no need to say more about the success of the king and the defeat of the bandits.

"Chirp!"

Then a falcon flew down.

It stopped upright at the feet of the king's statue, and it looked like it was well trained.

"This is for identity verification."

Forbes touched the Falcon's head and explained to Su Nian with a smile, and then hung the token symbolizing his identity around the Falcon's neck.

As the falcon flew back to the city wall, the defenders set up the trap after confirming Forbes' identity.

The heavy gate also slowly opened with a roar.

"Our Majesty has prepared a grand welcome ceremony for you. Are you ready? Soldiers have already gone to report."

Forbes put away the luxurious carriage. He was leading a dragon-blooded war horse, half a body behind. Su Nian was riding another dragon-blooded war horse, and Anna was sitting in his arms.

Except for the accompanying guards, no one else can enter Dragon Heart City from the main entrance.

A small door with a height of one person was opened near the city gate. This is the passage for ordinary servants to walk. The harsh concept of superiority and inferiority is fully reflected at this moment.

"Why don't you mount?"

Su Nian saw that Forbes was following behind and holding the horse with great difficulty. You must know that Forbes was of some status and could ride on the horse.

"No one can ride a horse in front of the king, and no commoner can ride a horse in front of the nobles, except you, of course." Forbes wiped the sweat from his forehead and explained with a smile: "You are allowed to ride with him with His Majesty's approval. Hero, if I provoke you by riding on my horse at this time, according to the laws of Airland, you can directly execute me."

When Su Nian heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched and he didn't say anything.

He had heard before that the laws in Airland were basically all about the death penalty. He used to think that he was exaggerating, but now he realizes that it may be more.

He could kill people at will just because of a horse riding problem. He really couldn't think of anything else that the King of Airland couldn't do.

He is not as bad-tempered as a black dragon.

"Boom!"

The floodgates are fully open.

The top and the rock top inside the city gate hit together and made a loud noise.

Only then did Su Nian see the situation inside the city gate.

At the end of the dark and mottled wall, the light of the street is faintly visible.

This city gate passage is actually like a tunnel. Preliminary estimation is that this tunnel is three hundred meters long, so the thickness of the city wall can already be foreseen... Even if it is hollow like a fortress, the outer city wall is at least fifty meters long. thickness of.

Such a thick wall...

Wouldn't it be possible for ten carriages to run abreast on the city wall?

This is called a copper wall and an iron wall.

Fortunately, he is a dragon and can fly.

But if other empires want to invade Ireland, they may have to think twice before thinking about whether they can penetrate the city wall, which is at least fifty meters thick.

Soon everyone passed through the city gate tunnel.

Only then did Su Nian realize that the other side of the city gate was not a street, but Wengcheng.

At this moment, two teams of knights in Weng City were already lined up on the side of the road. They were holding horses with their left hands and holding knight spears with their right hands.

The moment Su Nian appeared.

These knights roared loudly:

"Welcome the heroic dragon slayer to Dragon Heart City!!"

Immediately afterwards, the knight's spear hit the ground rhythmically.

"Bang!"

"Drink!" the knights roared.

"Bah, bah, bah!" Knocked three times again.

The sound was uniform, and the quality of the Airland army was also reflected at this moment.
