Crossing the southern forest area is almost impossible for ordinary people, but for Linton riding a dragon, there is almost no difficulty. The only obstacle is that the travel time is too long.
Linton didn't expect this forest to be so big. No wonder it was a natural barrier that no one could cross. It took Linton several hours of flying to cross the entire forest. The distance was indeed a bit exaggerated.
, no wonder Dotmann said that it would be faster to take a boat. Of course, when he said faster, he meant two months of sailing.
Yes, the ship from the Holy Empire of Yilan to the Kingdom of Limar takes 2 months to get there. Dortman said that he went there once when he was young, but now he can’t go. The wind and waves on the sea are really exaggerated. He estimates that it will
He died on the ship. If not for this, he would have gone by himself.
Although he was unable to go there in person, Dortman still provided some information about the Kingdom of Limar, but this was all information from decades ago. According to him, the Kingdom of Limar is a somewhat special kingdom. This kingdom was founded by
It is made up of a mixture of people from two races. One of them is the human race and the other is the scaly people.
This scaly man feels like a race between humans and dragons. He is taller than dragons and is closer to the human race. He has scales on his body. As for the origin and bloodline, it is not clear because only the Kingdom of Limar has such a race.
, and this kingdom is relatively closed. According to Dortman, in the Kingdom of Limar, the status of the scaly people is even higher than that of the human race, because the royal family of that kingdom seems to be the scaly people.
Of course, that's what he said. What Linton saw when he arrived was completely different from what Dortman said. After passing through the forest, Linton searched along the coast and finally discovered the first city. However,
When he arrived above the city, Linton discovered that the city was completely silent, with no sense of movement of living creatures at all. Not only that, the city seemed to have been attacked, and many buildings were damaged, but this was not something that happened recently.
Yes, it should have been a while.
After flying around the city in the air, surprisingly, no corpses were found in the city. However, Linton also saw a lot of animals moving around the city. It is estimated that the corpses and the like were almost eaten.
.
This situation is a bit bad. The Limar Kingdom must have been destroyed, and it seems that this situation is not recent. Is there anything else that can be found? The situation here in the Limar Kingdom is really going on.
Dortman, who has been here, can't tell clearly, let alone Linton. Is there any other country besides the Kingdom of Limar around here? Linton doesn't know who destroyed the Kingdom of Limar.
So what should we do now? Linton is at a loss.
After thinking about it, Linton decided to check nearby to see if he could find other cities in the Kingdom of Limar to see what the situation was like there. It might just be that this city was destroyed, and the Kingdom of Limar may not have been destroyed.
The country was over. So Linton set off again, moving towards the west, because there was an obvious road extending out to the west of the city, which should be a road to a nearby city or village.
Just after flying out for a while, Linton, who was searching in the air, suddenly noticed the movement below. From a long distance away, Linton saw a position not far ahead. Several wild wolf-like monsters were hunting, and the object they were hunting was
It looked like a human being. It was obvious that the man being hunted was running away, and the wolves behind him were chasing him. The hunting speed was not very fast. It was obvious that these wolves were chasing prey, and they only took action after chasing him to exhaustion.
Then Linton must take care of this matter. After finally seeing someone, Linton didn't know who to ask about the situation. Suddenly, a living person appeared. Of course, Linton flew over immediately.
Before the people arrived, the wild wolves that were rounding up the prey had already noticed that something was wrong. They turned around and saw a dragon flying directly towards them. Needless to say, several wild wolves scattered without saying a word.
Escape. The person being chased seemed to have seen this situation, and was immediately paralyzed on the ground in fear.
After getting closer, Linton could clearly see the person being chased. This was a boy who looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old. He was wearing a pair of torn trousers that were almost torn into strips. He was holding a simple
With his wooden shield and spear, he looked like a savage. Of course, Linton also noticed the scales on the opponent’s naked upper body. This should be the scaly man that Dortman mentioned. It is indeed not much different from humans.
, but it has scales on its body, and these scales do look like dragon scales. Maybe it really has dragon blood?
"Can you speak?" Linton asked directly.
"Huh?" The other party was stunned for a moment, as if he hadn't noticed that there was actually a person above the dragon. He didn't realize it until Linton spoke. He looked up at Linton in surprise, and was a little stunned for a moment.
"Are you from the Kingdom of Limar?" Linton jumped off the dragon, looked at the boy, and asked again. While asking, Linton also looked briefly. There were several wounds on the boy's body, but they should be
They were all skin injuries, and the main condition was some loss of strength, which was not very serious. These scales should have some defensive function, and his body may be stronger than that of humans.
"Yes... who are you, sir?" the boy asked.
"I am from the Holy Empire of Elan in the north." Linton said.
"Ilan Holy Empire?" The boy looked confused. He had obviously never heard of this name. This is quite normal, because most people in the Holy Empire of Yilan had never heard of the Kingdom of Limar.
"What happened here?" Linton asked directly, "Did you know that the city over there was destroyed?"
"That's where I escaped." Seeing that Linton was still friendly, the boy here relaxed a little and replied.
"Escaped?" Linton asked, "What's wrong? Were they invaded by people from other countries?"
"It's...the master of Castle Black," the boy said.
"Castle Black?" Linton was stunned for a moment.
"An evil necromancer."
"Necromancer?" Linton was stunned for a moment. Linton had heard about the necromancer before, and he was almost regarded as a necromancer. According to what he heard before, necromancy is common in the entire continent.
It is a taboo spell that is not tolerated not only by the Church of Light, but also by other churches.
Because he was also involved in this aspect, Linton had also inquired about some things before. The Necromancer has disappeared on the mainland for a long time, and many people even thought that the Necromancer had completely disappeared, so Linton's previous situation also
No one discovered it because not many people would think about it.
Linton didn't expect that he could find a necromancer here, but after thinking about it, he found that this is indeed a good place for development. The Kingdom of Limar is so remote that it is almost isolated from other countries on the mainland. According to the boy, this
Necromancers began to wreak havoc in this country a year ago, but the news has not spread yet. Even the Holy Empire of Elan, which is closest to them, has not received any reports, let alone other countries.
If a necromancer needs to develop, the first thing it needs is a large number of corpses, so the current situation is probably that a necromancer has discovered this place suitable for development. After several years of preparation, it has now occupied the entire country.
The boy in front of him is called Reed. A year ago, he was one of the residents of the fishing port city that Linton saw before. However, a year ago, suddenly a large number of undead creatures invaded one day, and the entire city was flooded by the undead army. Only a few
Many people escaped from the city, and Reed was one of them. He was living in the mountains now and did not dare to go back to the city. There were only six or seven old, weak, sick, and disabled people left with him who escaped. He was the only one.
People who are able to go out to hunt, that's why they go out hunting, but they didn't expect to be attacked by wild wolves and almost lost their lives.
Judging from Reed's description, the number of the undead army controlled by this necromancer is already very large, and it has reached the point where it can wipe out the entire city in an instant. If it has reached such a scale, then the undead army is undoubtedly very scary. It is estimated that what will happen next
It just snowballed, getting bigger and bigger, and Linton estimated that the country might have really been destroyed.
Touching his chin, Linton was no longer thinking about cultural relics. What is the next step for this necromancer after destroying a country? According to general speculation, it is probably to continue to expand, right? If it is expansion,
If so, where should we expand? Yes, the first one to do so is their Holy Empire of Elan.
Crossing the great forest to the north from here is the territory of the Holy Empire of Elan. If this necromancer is really serious, his first goal is naturally there. Otherwise, would the undead also go out by boat? Going through the great forest is not good for ordinary humans.
It is indeed difficult, but for the undead troops, it is not impossible.
The destruction of the city next to it was already a year ago, so this necromancer may have been preparing for the expansion plan for a long time. If he had not discovered it himself, it is very likely that the Holy Empire of Yilan would suddenly face the expansion plan.
A large number of undead appeared in the south, and this suddenly became a bit troublesome.
Of course, fortunately, he came here by mistake. When the undead army had already formed, it was really a troublesome thing, but for Linton, it was not a big deal.
Thinking of meeting the necromancer first, Linton asked Reed where he might be, and then Linton learned a rather surprising situation.
"Flying Castle?" Linton was stunned for a moment, because according to Reed's explanation, the Black Castle controlled by the Necromancer was a huge castle flying in the sky. "This is awesome."
