Ren rushed into the dragon's lair with a heavy warblade, but the cave was empty, only Matthew Ansalon and Gyneth stood by the pool with astonishment on their faces.
"Where is the black dragon?" Ren asked loudly.
He pretended to search around in the lair. Just twenty minutes ago, there was a hill of gold treasure here, but now he couldn't find even a single gold coin.
The alchemy room next to the cave was also clean. Not only the alchemy materials and potions, but also all the tools and utensils were taken away, and there were traces of dragon breath, all clues were destroyed, and no one could see it. This used to be an alchemy room.
"It's not in vain that I've been procrastinating for so long, the search is clean enough." Ren secretly laughed.
Even the mirror pool in the middle of the dragon's nest was destroyed.
The floor of the cave was also scorched by high-temperature flames and became very dry, obliterating footprints and odors, leaving no traces.
Nuo Da's dragon nest has no value except for the rune array arranged behind the wall.
The results are already evident.
Matthew Ansalon's expression was ugly, he shook his head and said, "The dragon has already escaped."
"Run away?" Ren's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief, "It's not rumored that the dragon cheated tens of millions of gold shields from Britannia, and because there were too many, they hid them in the lair. Are you making a mistake?"
"Your Majesty's prophecy has never been wrong." The Holy Grail Knight said solemnly, but there was unstoppable doubt in his eyes.
Under the crown is the Fairy of the Lake Goddess. She is the spokesperson of the Goddess of the Lake in the human world. She has a higher status than the King of Knights in Brantania, and she is the spiritual leader of all the Holy Grail Knights.
When the Lake Fairy used prophecy to determine the hiding place of the black dragon, Matthew Ansalon was at the scene and vaguely saw a huge golden treasure. Because it was too shocking, the news leaked out quickly, and even the orcs knew about it.
This must be the lair of the black dragon, but the treasure is gone, and even the black dragon is gone.
Matthew Ansalon looked at his silver dragon companion and doubted: "Ibsi is very likely to be an evil dragon. How could she respond to the dragon's call? Could it be that we made a mistake in the lair? This is the other side." Black Dragon?"
The silver dragon, Guness, shook her head, expressing that she was not sure.
The deep mud swamp has a vast area, and most of the area is shrouded in fog all year round. This environment is very popular with black dragons, and there is a great possibility that there are many black dragons hidden in it.
"Your High Priest, do you know that there are other black dragons in the swamp?"
Matthew Ansalon asked the shaman again. After all, this is the territory of the orc tribe, and Direkota should know better.
"I haven't been to the deep mud swamp a few times, and I don't know more than you." Ren didn't know this, he found an excuse to fool him, his eyes flashed, and he asked instead: "What is the summon of the dragon you are talking about? What does it matter?"
Matthew Ansalon and Gyneth glanced at each other, and quickly communicated a few words in their hearts. Silver Dragon replied, "Sorry, I'm sorry that I can't tell the high priest."
"fine."
Ren snorted coldly, put the war blade back into his waist, turned around and walked out of the cave, muttering in his mouth: "I can find it out myself, and if I find the dragon's nest, the treasure will not be a quarter." .”
Matthew Ansalon and the two followed suit.
Returning to the ground from the tunnel, Ren didn't say hello to them, and jumped directly into his sky survey wind rider and flew into the sky, and quickly disappeared into the fog of the swamp.
Guness looked at the direction where the flying dragon left, and said in a low voice, "Matthew, I always feel that there is something wrong with this high priest."
The Holy Grail Knight was silent for a few seconds, "What's wrong?"
"He has a very strong thunder and lightning elemental aura, but the leakage is a little too much, as if he is deliberately covering up something. He gave me a different feeling from when he was negotiating with us a few days ago." Gyneth analyzed. : "There are some subtle differences in his tone of voice, accent, and habits."
"And don't you think that the high priest of Direkota came too coincidentally? He happened to be one step ahead of us and found the black dragon's lair."
"His 'Worrell Guards' have yet to show up."
Yinlong expressed several doubts.
Matthew Ansalon also began to suspect, but he didn't really believe it. Someone dared to pretend to be the orc high priest and appeared under his nose, frowning and said: "Do you think Direkota colluded with that black dragon?"
"Hmph..." Yinlong was noncommittal, "I suspect he was transformed by the black dragon."
"How is this possible?" The Holy Grail Knight felt that this did not make sense.
If the high priest is the black dragon, how did he move the golden treasure from the lair while he was always by his side? If the black dragon had already transferred the treasure, why would it appear in front of him? It would be unnecessary.
Gness guessed what her lover was thinking, "Don't forget, we came here after hearing the call of the dragon. Only the dragon descendants of the Drogonburg family can sound the call of the dragon. The black dragon is not without helpers."
"Hasn't the Dragonborn family been destroyed?" the Holy Grail Knight asked.
"I used to think so, but now it seems that there are still descendants of Drogonburg who have escaped the pursuit. This dragonborn dared to blow the horn, and he will definitely not stay silent. Sooner or later, he will return to Congatro to try to restore the country. , revealing his identity." Looking at the eastern sky, the silver dragon said calmly: "At that time, we only need to ask this dragon descendant for the treasure."
"Congatro..." The Holy Grail Knight sighed helplessly.
Brantania is too far away from Congatro, and it is not known when the Dragonborn will show up. The possibility of recovering the treasure is not optimistic.
He shook his head slowly, "Gnese, all of this is your guesswork, and the truth may not be even 20 percent."
As soon as the words were finished, there was a sound of flapping wings in the sky, which was completely different from the sound of the two silver-winged horses. He and the silver dragon looked up, and suddenly saw a group of flying dragons appearing from the mist.
These are all Wind Riders, the Orc Warchief's "Voril Guard."
On the back of each wind rider is a powerful orc warrior, the most conspicuous of which is a sky patrol wind rider, carrying an old orc priest.
"High Priest Direkota, why is he back?"
This was Matthew Ansalon's first thought, and then he was shocked. Looking at his own silver dragon, he found that there was an expression of "I guessed it right" on Gness's face.
The direcotta before was fake!
He is that black dragon!
The Holy Grail Knight regretted so much, he was so ashamed that he was tricked by the black dragon again!
"Let's chase after her, she won't be able to escape very far, maybe she still has a chance." Gnese immediately revealed her real body as a silver dragon, and waited for her lover to jump on her back, soaring into the sky with a flick of her wings.
The Silver Winged Pegasus Knight hurriedly followed, leaving a group of orcs in a daze.
In mid-air, more than a dozen miles away from the dragon's nest, the old orc that Ren turned into suddenly changed his face slightly, and said, "They found out and are catching up."
The Sky Surveyor Wind Rider below him made a voice: "How do you know?"
Ryan didn't answer.
When he entered the dragon's lair, he casually sprinkled a few small pieces of metal on the ground of the tunnel, as thin as needlepoints. When Matthew Ansalon came out of the tunnel, he stepped on two or three of them and stuck to his body. Under the boots, each grain has a metal mark.
Originally, it was just a matter of convenience, but I didn't expect it to really come in handy.
At this moment, the Holy Grail Knight is moving at full speed, which means that his disguise has been seen through.
The flying speed of the silver dragon can be ranked first among all the giant dragons, far faster than the black dragon and the sky-watching wind rider, and I'm afraid it won't take long for it to be caught up.
The black dragon immediately turned into a wind roc, and its speed suddenly accelerated.
Ren also transformed into a human ranger.
However, Feng Peng flew with all his strength for a while, and he found that not only failed to distance himself from Yinlong, but actually got closer. Every half a minute, the metal marker would cross a certain distance. Obviously, the Silver Dragon and the Holy Grail Knight had some kind of teleportation method.
After two or three teleportations, Silver Dragon has chased within a thousand meters.
Ren's soul eye pierced through the fog, and vaguely saw the huge figure of the silver dragon. It was too late to turn around, and he might be discovered soon.
"It came so fast, they caught up."
Ren's reminder made the black dragon startled, and he couldn't help asking in surprise: "What should I do?" He didn't want to fight the high-ranking Holy Grail Knight, even if he added Ren, it was impossible to win.
"Go down." Ren made a decisive decision.
Feng Peng plunged headfirst into the swamp, obeying Ren's order, and instantly turned into a high-level Shadow Leopard.
Ren also quickly put on a leather armor with an enchanted longbow on his back, a dagger and a rope on his waist, and rolled the bloody cloak into the mud under his feet. Leopard runs in the swamp.
The panther wanted to run forward subconsciously, but Ren said, "Turn around and go in the direction of the dragon's nest."
The sound of the horn of the Dragon's Call was not only heard by the silver dragon, but also attracted all the mercenaries and adventurers within the range. Many people were rushing towards the dragon's nest, but the speed was too slow and they were still on the way.
Ren found several waves of mercenaries when he left the dragon's nest.
If you stay away from the dragon's nest and become a different kind, you will be seen through at a glance.
Almost at the same time as they had just completed the camouflage, the black panther ran less than a hundred meters, and the figure of the silver dragon appeared in the mist.
The slender and huge dragon passed over the top of the head, and the monstrous dragon power shrouded it.
The black panther let out a low growl and collapsed to the ground.
Ren also showed a horrified expression, looking up at the silver dragon flying overhead, trembling all over. He could feel a sharp gaze sweeping over his body, and the filthy blood-colored cloak successfully played its role, covering up the unique aura.
This makes him look like an ordinary ranger.
The silver dragon didn't stop, and continued to fly forward. The Holy Grail Knight on the dragon's back didn't notice any abnormality, and was covered by the mist in a blink of an eye.
Ren exhaled and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
He rode the Shadow Leopard up and ran for a few miles, making sure that the Silver Dragon and the Holy Grail Knight were far enough away from him, and only then did the Black Dragon turn into Feng Peng again and escape from another direction.
