When Victor followed the elf general into the fortress, he suddenly stopped and turned to look towards the seaside.
At this time, the sun has completely sunk into the sea level, but the moon has not risen. Only the wizard's various lighting spells cover the surrounding area, and there are also magic torches that light up the long city walls.
However, it was completely dark under the cliff and beyond at sea, and only the sound of waves crashing against the rocks could be heard.
The muscular man's stop attracted the attention of the elves.
"Sir, is there anything worthy of attention over there?"
Ernest also looked towards the seaside. He even added a second-level spell [dark vision] to himself, but he still couldn't see anything.
This aroused the interest of the mage Ivan, who had just passed the resonance crystal of the fortress and borrowed the power of the Mystic Lock to report the information here to the Mountain Tower.
With a simple gesture, a bright ball of light appeared from Ivan's hand and quickly flew towards the sea.
Third-ring spell [sunlight spell]
As expected of a high-level mage, this kind of three-ring spell can be thrown away easily, and Shatara has been arguing for a long time for a similarly three-ring [Language Proficiency]!
Of course, it may also be because we are back in a safe fortress. As long as we get enough rest, our spell slots will be restored tomorrow, so it doesn't matter.
"There's a big guy over there! His breath is very similar to the dragon from before."
Victor's words shocked the Elf General's already tired spirit. He waved his hand to let others speed up the pace of entering the fortress.
Ivan's ball of light only flew seven or eight hundred meters away from the university before extinguishing. After all, this spell can only move the ball of light within 60 feet, and being able to fly nearly a kilometer can be regarded as his master's magical skills.
Already.
However, the mage and other elves saw nothing through the light ball, which made them look at the muscular man with some suspicion.
"Sir Victor, how far is it approximately?"
The paladin asked with a white face. He knew that this muscular man from another world had far beyond normal perception.
"According to your statement...it's about 20,000 feet, hmm...it seems to be in the water."
That is about 6 kilometers. Normally, he would not be able to perceive any useful information at this distance.
However, that "thing" was too huge, and its unscrupulous aura would not be restrained at all. Even Victor, who was several kilometers away, could sense its presence.
After hearing the words "in the water", Ernest thought deeply and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
Referring to the case thirty years ago, the Archmage used a magic trap to kill the dragon lord August, and then Margaret led the army into the northern section of the Misty Mountains and massacred 7 elven villages!
This elven fortress was rebuilt thirty years ago!
Although there is clear news that the Dark Green Calamity is still sleeping, even Maxima's death has not awakened it, but everyone is afraid of accidents...
But one thing all elves know is: Margaret, the green dragon, will never attack from the sea!
"The giant beast on the sea...and the breath of the dragon...could it be?!"
Master Yiwen murmured.
"Hoo~ooh~oh~"
"Oh~ouch~ho"
A roar with a strange rhythm came from the distance. It sounded like a dragon's roar, but what was going on with this rhythm?
Victor was a little confused.
"It's Latus! That's Latus singing!"
The guards on the city wall shouted, but it did not cause alarm or commotion.
"What is Latus?"
The muscular man stared at Ernest with strange eyes and asked.
"That's an old dragon turtle!"
The one who answered was not the Elf General, but Druid Steve who jumped down from the moose.
Steve fed the moose a wild plum, then waved and patted the moose's butt to drive him back into the jungle.
That was the animal companion he temporarily recruited. To unload him and return to the fortress, he needed to pay the moose a few wild plums blessed by the [Divine Plum Technique].
"Dragon turtle? Is it another kind of dragon?"
The muscular man asked loudly.
"It can be understood this way, or it can be thought of as a kind of dragon beast, a wise dragon beast."
Mage Ivan didn't know when he came near Victor, and he explained in a low voice.
Dragons hatched from dragon eggs that have no intelligence and cannot inherit the dragon's inheritance are called dragon beasts.
Dragon turtles are among the most fearsome creatures in the sea. As large and voracious as their oldest land-dwelling dragon relatives, dragon turtles use their deadly jaws, steam breath, and powerful tail to attack.
The rough turtle shell of the dragon turtle is as dark green as the deep sea it inhabits. The silver highlights arranged on it resemble sparkling water, so the dragon turtle that surfaces is sometimes mistaken for sunlight or moonlight on the waves.
reflection.
One of the characteristics of the dragon beast is that it cannot use magic, and the dragon turtle meets this characteristic, but the dragon turtle has wisdom similar to that of a giant dragon.
Dragon turtles are intelligent enough to accept bribes. Pirates sailing in the waters where dragon turtles are infested will quickly learn how to offer treasures in order to pass safely. Smart sahuagin sometimes form an alliance with dragon turtles and lure them with benefits, so that dragon turtles can pass safely.
The turtles use their steam breath to support the sahuagin in raiding ships and coastal towns.
Steve said in a nostalgic tone:
"Latus first passed by the Misty Cliffs 1,000 years ago. He destroyed passing ships, robbed merchants, and attacked coastal elven villages until His Highness Agako arrived..."
No one knows how Agako, who is just a high-level druid, used the power of nature to calm down the cruelty and greed brought by the dragon bloodline of the dragon turtle, and even taught Latus how to sing with the voice of the dragon...
Hundreds of years ago, when the natural teacher Agako was still there, Latus would come to the cliff of mist every few years and call the Archdruid with the "singing voice" just now.
Ajako will transform into some kind of aquatic or other terrestrial beast, and use the same rough voice to accompany the dragon turtle.
Afterwards, the archdruid used magic to help it clean up the parasitic plants on its body, while Latus helped the elf drive away the sahuagin wandering nearby.
"This friendly relationship lasted for more than three hundred years, until Master Agako disappeared, and no one could answer Latus' call..."
Druid Steve looked in the direction where the roar came from and whispered.
"Even if there is no response for more than two hundred years, Ratus will still come here every few years to call His Highness Agako..."
The one who spoke was Ernest, who had been stationed at Nanfeng Fortress for more than a hundred years, and Latus was considered an old friend of his!
"Your Highness?"
Paladin John was a little strange. He knew about the missing archdruid Agako, but this was the first time he heard someone address her as "Your Highness."
"His Royal Highness Agako is the cousin of King Ryan and has noble royal blood!"
Ernest explained loudly, with a tone that made it impossible to refute.
More than two hundred years are not enough time for the elves to forget the rebellion started by the elven nobles. The withering of the royal bloodline makes the loyal elven generals suffer, and the disappearance of Ajako makes most of the royal loyalists deplore.
"Can't other druids communicate with it?"
Victor asked curiously, and at the same time, the muscular man made an arm swing.
If this interesting "Sea King" wasn't injured, he would definitely go down and "communicate" with it!
"No one can gain its recognition anymore, not even His Highness Agako's students!"
Oh, so "arrogant"?
Aquaman Killer Victor is more interested!
This dragon turtle reminded him of Rabu the whale from Upside Down Mountain...
However, the memory of the muscular man did not last long, and was interrupted by a bright beam of light that appeared in the fortress.
