Chapter 358

Fall of the stars 833, June 19, early in the morning, north of Moldavia, Mount nicer, Lindenberg college.

At this time, before the sun rises, everything is quiet. All the students in the college have gone to sleep. Most of the tutors rest in their rooms, and self-discipline puppets patrol all the important parts of the college, such as the accommodation area, library and magic laboratory. These steel and magic creatures can detect the slightest movement in the dark, Is the best guardian.

But there are always places that don't need protection.

On the top floor of the college, there is an office with a sword hand on the door.

Behind the door, there is no light in the room. A silvery moonlight slants into the room from the skylight on the roof, which is the only light source. In the corner where the moonlight can't shine, a man is sitting in a wide armchair in silence, playing with something in his hand.

Joshua stares at the dragon egg in his hand. The white eggshell, which is the size of a human head, emits a faint fluorescence, which is particularly hazy in the dark.

[white dragon eggs to be hatched]

[extraordinary level gold level material: it can be used to make high-level magic food materials, can be used to make 'Longli medicament', can be used to make dragon soul sacrificial utensils, and can hatch into young white dragons]

[state of dragon eggs: extremely healthy, with 93% success rate of hatching. It is prepared by high mages through special techniques, It's possible for young dragons to develop blood talent ahead of time]

[Item Description: This is the spoils of the Dragon slaughtered by Joshua van Radcliffe, the Earl of Northland. It comes from the white dragon's nest in the Arctic ice field. It's in a very healthy state and may hatch at any time. Be careful, the Dragon doesn't treat the first seen creature as a mother and wants it to be close to you, You'd better show your strength and give it a big breakfast

[Lulu, Lulu...]

"Yes, this dragon egg is very healthy."

With a soft exclamation, Joshua put the egg back into the silver metal box beside him. He nodded and sighed: "it's a good egg to meet the requirements when you take it. It's a gift from the God of luck and despair. It's really kind."

Since Joshua solved the black fog incident in DIDU, he found that he was getting better and better at some unimportant things. For example, the book he picked up was just a novel to his taste. If he wanted to solve something, there was a corresponding report coming. It was absolutely impossible to buy inferior goods on the street, This is obviously a sign of a sudden rise in luck.

Originally, the soldier thought that the gift of ogner was nothing more than the return of the divinity he borrowed. At most, he returned more. But now he realized that the divinity from the God of fortune had such a wonderful effect.

"Unfortunately, there are no lotteries in mainland China."

Joshua made a little joke. If there was one, he might win a small prize with his present luck.

Now, Ying needs to stay in Lord's mansion and take care of Brandon's two daughters. Lin wants to join the Knights and the church from time to time to wipe out the heretics, so now he is alone in lindongbao college, waiting for the end of this large-scale comprehensive test and giving a reward to the best student - a dragon egg that is about to hatch.

At the beginning, Joshua didn't bring many dragon eggs from the white dragon's nest. In addition, there were only 22 dead eggs that Theodore identified as unable to hatch, and there were only 15 ones that could hatch healthily. A total of seven dragon eggs lost their activity for various reasons and could only be used as magic materials.

But even if there are only 15 eggs left, it is not so easy to find the whole host.

Joshua himself is black. He doesn't need a second mount. These dragon eggs are reserved for the best knights in his reserve order. However, only ten of the 40 knights in his reserve order are qualified.

After the end of the Kuroshio last year, Joshua specially selected the soldiers' reserve knights from the black forest fortress and the city guard. They were young men with good physical fitness and even had the potential to advance to the gold level. The soldiers also specially taught them breathing skills. After a year of training, the strength of these reserve Knights has greatly improved, Many people have broken through the original class and gone to a higher level.

Of course, they are not Joshua. Without the system, their strength can't progress so fast. So far, no one has touched the golden barrier. Joshua estimates that it will take about five or six years for these people to go further unless they wait for the great devil tide.

But it was terrible enough. Forty silver knights who had practiced breathing method were powerful in the Empire. After all, they were only private soldiers belonging to Joshua. So the soldiers were ready to take off the preparations of the reserve knights and formally give them an organization.But even so, there are still a lot of people in the reserve Knight Order who do not meet the requirements. First of all, the most important point of the Dragon Knight is "not afraid of heights", so seven or eight people have been screened out, and few of them have reached the standard of dynamic vision and reaction ability. Taken together, most of them are eliminated in an instant.

You know, the most important thing for Dragon Knights is to fight in the sky. Because the dragon's mobility is too high, the reaction speed of the Knights must be very strong. The Knights of the preparatory knights are not bad at telling the truth. If they have been trained hard, there should be a lot of people who can reach the standard. But what Joshua wants is the certainty of the present, not the possibility of the future, so it's a pity, Only the ten strongest reserve knights can get dragon eggs.

In this way, not only are there many of the 15 eggs, but there are five more. Theodore, as a meritorious official of the egg hatching, can get one. In this college evaluation, Joshua is going to send another one. Even so, there are three more.

"Leave one for the college itself."

After thinking about it, Joshua decided to keep a dragon egg and cultivate it in the name of the college. Anyway, Theodore would not care about taking care of one more baby dragon. Moreover, if lindongbao college could be open for decades, there would be a guardian dragon of his own.

This is not the treatment that ordinary colleges can get. Even guantian white tower, no college or department can have a guardian dragon.

"Two more."

Looking at the metal box on his side, Joshua frowned: "send one to master Nostradamus or bishop atannis? It's like a thank you for helping all the time. "

But when he finished talking to himself, the soldier shook his head again: "they don't need this thing. The old mage doesn't have time to take care of this little thing and doesn't need a mount, but the church may not be able to afford it."

You know, when a giant dragon grows up, it needs enough food and special materials to bankrupt a small family. Joshua is the Lord of Moldavia and the Earl of the field. Relying on a large amount of savings and family industry in the past, he can support the load of the ten head dragon of the Knight Order.

As for the two ends of the college and the one given to the students, Nostradamus and Joshua will help. Of course, it's not a big problem. Theodore, who has been preparing for a dragon for decades, has no problem. On the contrary, the church, which lives a simple life and relies on the funds of believers and lords, suddenly has a dragon, They are bound to be in financial trouble.

"Forget it, it's just two dragons."

After thinking about it, but he didn't think of the result, Joshua shook his head and left it behind. Anyway, it's too big to keep two more as a spare.

Outside the window, the moonlight is gradually replaced by the golden red sunlight, the dawn is breaking, and the sun is slowly rising. And the soldiers stood up and moved their arms.

Today is the last day of the comprehensive evaluation of lindongbao college, and also the last day of the challenge arena. When everything is over and the total score is out, it is the time for him to present the dragon eggs.

……

At the same time, imperial capital, Royal study.

Because of the competition with Joshua, the luxurious study with its dome burned down has been completely restored, and its gorgeous decoration is no less than before, or even better than before.

"How."

In the middle of the study, his majesty, the emperor of the Empire, raised his eyes from his books. He looked impatiently at the guard leader who was kneeling on one knee beside him: "Nash, I said that if there is no emergency, don't disturb me during my breakfast break."

"I'm very sorry, your majesty, but this is from the holy mountain of the distant sea."

The middle-aged man named Nash replied in a deep voice that he did not feel frightened because of the impatience of his loyalists. Instead, he repeated his previous news in a clear voice: "from the church, the substitute of the God of life is ready. The" healing ceremony "can be carried out at any time. If your majesty has time, they will come to carry out the ceremony."

"... that's really good news."

Putting down the thick ancient books in his hand, Israel clapped his hands. His serious expression was a little loose. He said with some emotion: "if I hadn't lent the star of fusion, these stone like clerics might not have given me face - tell them that I can come at any time now."

With these words, the powerful legendary soldier could not help feeling another stabbing pain in his back. He sighed and said to himself helplessly: "if it wasn't for the mistake of that year, why should I be so impatient..."

Nash, kneeling on one side, didn't talk much. As the leader of the Royal spy [dark shadow], Nash was the leader of the Royal spy [dark shadow], One of Israel's closest friends, he naturally knew the hidden wounds of the ruler of the Empire. So when he learned that the church was out of the ordinary and was willing to invite a substitute of the God of life who had lived in the great temple for many years, Nash immediately came to tell his Lord.In order to cure his dark wounds, Israel has been looking for many ways over the years. He has tried many ways, such as the secret treasures of the elves, the secret skills of the western mountain warlocks, and the magic treatment of the eastern plain mages. These methods are useful and can suppress his dark wounds, but they all cure the symptoms but not the root cause, and can not completely cure them.

Naturally, he has tried the magic of the church, but the Archbishop who used to treat Israel also said frankly that he was not treated in time at the beginning of the injury, and he also experienced extremely fierce fighting, so the injury has already gone deep into the essence of life, and it is difficult to cure it by any method.

Unless Israel goes a step further and sublimates his life essence to obtain a trace of divinity, any ceremony will be futile. However, if it is the strongest healing magic skill performed by the God of life, the "healing ceremony" is another matter. It is really possible to complete the emperor's life essence and cure it from the source.

But the God of life is originally the most silent and independent of the seven gods of the human race, and so is his clergyman. The substitute of the God of life has always lived in the holy mountain temple, and almost never went out. Even in the face of Israel, the emperor of the Empire, there is no way to invite him out for treatment.

"Thanks to the Dragon disaster."

With a slight sigh, Israel's mood was a little complicated. If it wasn't for the Dragon disaster, the church just needed the help of the Empire, everything would be hard to say.

"Why, is there any other news?"

Aware that Nash didn't leave, the emperor asked curiously, "what else is there?"

"Your Majesty..."

Hesitated for a while, the middle-aged warrior truthfully replied: "the seven gods church also said that they still need some imperial help."

"Why, isn't that fusion star enough?"

Even Israel was a little surprised by the news: "they said they needed treasures with strong positive energy, so I gave them the biggest fusion star in the world - of course, it may not be as good as the one inlaid on their great temple, but it is absolutely enough for most cases."

"That's not enough. Are they going to explore the abyss?"

The emperor did not expect that what he said was just the truth. Although there was only a small gap in the abyss of Anos, it was because of this that the breath of the abyss coming from the gap was extremely fierce and rapid, and it could even stir up the restlessness of one side of the sea. Although his fusion star was strong enough, But it's impossible to shelter a giant ark in this area for too long.

"No, they are very satisfied with your Majesty's help..."

I don't know what to say, Nash frowned. His expression looked very complicated: "this time, the church is not asking for any sacred treasure, they want to get the help of an imperial nobleman."

"Imperial nobles?"

Narrowing his eyes, Israel's expression also became serious. After thinking, he asked in a calm voice, "who do they want?"

"Joshua."

The middle-aged warrior was afraid that the name was not detailed enough, so he said it again: "Joshua van Radcliffe."
