High Elf Calendar, the 350th year of One Piece Finuba.
Imric, the high elf prince of the Kingdom of Caledor, returned to his own Kingdom of Caledor.
Every time Imric returned to Caledor, he could always feel sadness, a sadness that went deep into his bones.
In the incomparably glorious history from the High Elves to the Elf Empire, Caledor has always been the backbone of the entire Elf Empire, the most important kingdom, the most powerful kingdom, the most glorious kingdom, and the kingdom that sacrificed the most.
For the high elves Ulthuan, the shape of the island is a hollow circular island, and the circular island is divided by a ring of mountains - the Anuri Mountains. The kingdom is called the Outer Ring Kingdom, and it is also the most vulnerable kingdom to attack. The kingdoms that are divided into the Inner Ring by the Anuli Mountains are called the Inner Ring Kingdom. The Inner Ring Kingdom rarely experiences wars and often enjoys peace. At the same time, they also have A better living environment and a deeper foundation.
There are only five gates connecting the Inner Ring and Outer Ring Kingdoms. Apart from these five gates, the peaks of the Anuli Mountains are so high that they are considered insurmountable. This is also true. To this day, countless attempts have been made. After that, no mortal could climb the Anuli Mountains. Only a highly refined mage spent his whole life, wisdom and magic climbing to the top of the Anuli Mountains...
Then this guy came down, and he only said one sentence: "The top of the mountain is the kingdom of the gods." At this point, the archmage blinded himself, no longer used any magic, and spent the rest of his life in seclusion.
Based on his experience, numerous scholars and archmages of the High Elves at the White Tower of Hoth finally concluded through research that the top of Mount Anuri leads directly to the realm of Chaos. After that, the High Elves gave up further research.
Among the five inner ring kingdoms of the high elves, the Kingdom of Caledor is the kingdom with the smallest population, but it has never concealed its powerful power, because there is a powerful dragon clan underground in the volcanoes of the Dragon's Spine Mountains.
A long time ago, the great Caledor Dragon Tamer was born here. He was the greatest archmage in the history of the high elves, and it was he who created the Maelstrom.
Caledor - The dragon tamer used the power of enchanted weapons forged at the Anvil of Vaal and his powerful magical power to tame the dragon. His descendants named their country Caledor in honor of this great ancestor.
In the heyday of the Kingdom of Caledor, there were twenty thousand dragon knights here alone. Twenty thousand dragon knights riding giant dragons. In the following centuries, many tall rock fortresses were erected in the smoke-filled canyons. , and starting from these fortresses, the dragon princes used the rising air to fly over the silent volcanoes and entered the battlefield. No one could match them in the battle.
In the end, the first-generation Phoenix King Alario withstood the attack of the Chaos Demon Army in the final battle of the Maelstrom, allowing Caledor the Dragon Tamer to complete the Maelstrom. He also singled out the four Chaos Demons and struck them one by one. He was dying after killing him, and finally died after reluctantly returning Kane's sword - the Widow Maker. Naturally, the dragon knights also suffered heavy casualties, with almost no one surviving.
However, what is even worse is that after the Battle of the Maelstrom, the Elf Empire entered the golden age and heyday of the next Phoenix King, Beor Shannar, but the dragon volcano in Caledor began to gradually cool down.
After Gith's betrayal and the division of the Elven Empire, Caledor's Dragon Mountains began to cool, and the volcanoes no longer glowed. As the mountains lost their heat, so did the dragons. One by one, they fell into a deep slumber.
, becoming increasingly difficult to awaken.
Losing the help of the dragons and losing the blood descendant of the last dragon tamer in the Battle of Longbeard, the strength and power of the dragon princes of Caledor also declined. Since the Butcher King Tesiris, no one has
There is no Prince of Caledor who can serve as the Phoenix King, but despite this, the Kingdom of Caledor is still the most martial and intimidating kingdom in the entire Ulthuan. The few remaining dragons (awake) also make Caledor
Many kingdoms still play an important role in the High Elf War Council.
After all, the glory of the High Elves is in the past, their ancient enemies are becoming more and more powerful, and the weapons of the High Elves that were once enough to dominate the world are now only enough to deal with their current enemies, although the population is slowly declining and they are tired of dealing with their former brethren.
With the plunder and attacks of the Dark Elves, the North has to deal with the Chaos Barbarians, the South has to deal with the Undead Pirates, and from time to time there are the Greenskins and Skaven, and the Tomb King Pirates' attacks, the High Elves are no longer able to fight on two fronts at the same time.
But even so, the high elves still believe that they have the obligation to protect the world. Every year, high elves take up arms and stand up to fight against the darkness. Even if one day, this gorgeous and sad elegy of the high elves will come to an end.
, but obviously they still have many shows waiting to start before that.
Prince Imrik of Caledor returned to his palace in Caledor. The prince looked at the once glorious palace of Caledor with some sadness. The giant stone pillars tens of meters high and the wide hall were once enough for a large group of dragons to roam.
You can move freely inside, but now, Caledor is a silent place. The sky is no longer filled with the roar of dragons and their fiery dragon breaths. The dragon lairs no longer have their rumbling echoes, and the earth is no longer filled with them.
Trembling from the heavy footsteps, now there is only a void and coldness, and a small number of echoes of the hurried footsteps of the Dragon Prince and the guards and the soft voices.
"Your Highness." Seeing Imrik come back, a dragon prince came up and asked, "Is the meeting over?"
"It's over long ago." Imrik's temper was obviously not very good. Prince Caledor didn't say a word: "Tyrion succeeded again. I can't even see the Phoenix King himself."
"It's always like this. I suggest that the War Council be renamed the Thai Brotherhood Council. Oh, and you can also add a following - this council is sponsored by the Thai Brothers Trading Co., Ltd." The Dragon Prince made a joke, and Imri
Although Ke's face was serious and he couldn't help but smile, he soon remembered his isolation and helplessness in the War Council.
He had almost forgotten how many years ago it was the last time Phoenix King Fenubar appeared in the War Council.
However, Fenuba's expression as dull as a duck when he attended the meeting made most people think that it didn't matter whether he came or not.
"What's going on with Vaal's Anvil?"
"In good working order."
"I want to enter the Temple of Vaal!"
"yes!"
The style of the Kingdom of Caledor is pride and efficiency. Imric immediately went to the Anvil of Vaal in the Dragon Volcano - this place is the temple of Vaal, the Elven Forging God, within the most active active volcano in the Dragonspine Mountains.
In the tall black stone tower, surrounded by steaming hot lava.
The only access between this temple and the outside world is a narrow suspension bridge made of fine steel. In the temple, Vaal's followers forge powerful weapons and exquisite equipment for the elven lords.
Contrary to the imagination of the outside world, not only dwarves have rune technology, but elves can also rune technology. To a certain extent, elves' rune technology is even more powerful than that of dwarves. After all, no one can master the wind of magic.
Comparable to elves (except Slann Demon Toad).
However, the cost is huge. The dwarves' rune technology uses the Anvil of Doom to absorb and fix the wind of magic. In other words, other than the skill and strength required for forging, there is no cost (even dwarf rune craftsmen generally live very long).
.
The rune technology of elves is completely different. The elven craftsmen of Vaal's Anvil must dig out their own eyes. They must use this act of self-mutilation to avoid being affected by chaos when using the wind of magic to forge, in order to ensure that the forging god Vaal
The knowledge and skills taught will not be deformed, and in rune forging, the vitality of the elf craftsman will be injected into the weapons and equipment along with the magical wind in the body, until a weapon with powerful rune power is created... or it will be completely consumed.
As long as the craftsmen's vitality is exhausted.
How can we say that this kind of elven weapons and equipment forged with life is not powerful enough?
These are weapons forged with life! In exchange for the weapons with the lives of the children of Caledor, Imric grasped his Star Spear tightly. The Prince of Caledor knew that no matter what difficulties he faced in the future,
He will be ready.
"I~M~R~K~" Just inside the active volcano, a giant dragon flew out from the spewing lava. The whole body of this giant dragon was more than thirty meters long, and its wingspan could reach
Sixty meters tall, it is as dark blue as the night sky. The huge dragon crown on its head and its majestic dragon power show its power.
This dragon's name is Minatnir. It is the oldest, strongest, and purest of the existing Caledor dragons. It is also one of the dozen or so dragons that are still awake.
The only ancient Glory Star Dragon in the world, this Glory Star Dragon flew in front of Imric and called his name in ancient dragon language: "Come here, I have something to tell you."
"Yes." Even though Imrik looked at everyone with arrogant eyes among the elves, only when he talked to Minat Nir, he showed his true feelings: "What's the matter?"
"The power of Chaos is gathering in the far north. I can feel that another warrior who is favored by the four evil gods at the same time is gathering his army in the north. Countless Chaos Warriors are gathering under his command." The giant dragon lowered his body.
, and said to the Prince of Caledor: "The number is countless. The last prince of Caledor will face the battle of annihilation in the not-too-distant future."
"Then let them come!" Imric held onto his Star Spear: "The son of Caledor will never bow to darkness."
"This is not how war is fought, child." The giant dragon's green eyes stared at this cute and spirited elf boy. The Yaoxing Dragon pressed its two front paws on the ground, then opened its wings and stretched its figure: "But no matter what,
Our dragon clan will all perish after the World Destruction War. This is a destined scene in the ancient prophecies."
"Will the dragon die?" Imrik's originally extremely arrogant expression and serious look suddenly seemed a little unbelievable, but he did not question the authenticity of the prophecy: "I don't care, I don't care whether the dragon will die, no matter what
How about it, if the world-destroying battle really comes, the son of Caledor will fight bloody battle with the dragon clan until the last moment, I swear in the name of Caledor!"
"We have known our destiny since the arrival of the Ancient Saint, child." Yaoxinglong said slowly: "I understand what you mean, this is the contract between you and me, we have agreed."
The relationship between Minatnir and Imrik is strange, but harmonious. The elves regard the dragon as a reliable and close partner.
The dragon, on the other hand, regarded Prince Caledor as his own ignorant brat.
"Yes, we have an agreement." Imrik nodded slowly, and the worry on his face became more and more obvious: "But now I have nowhere to use my power. I am isolated and helpless in the War Council. As I told you, Tai
Brother Shi and his minions have taken control of the Council, and now the original democratic republic of Ulthuan has been completely destroyed by them, and they even want to invite monkeys to set foot on our sacred land!"
"It's not a monkey." The Yaoxing Dragon suddenly opened his eyes: "Those are the sons of the ancient saints, and there are two of them!"
"The son of the Old Saint?" Imrik was very surprised: "Just those monkeys? Are they worthy? The eldest son of the Old Saint is obviously a lizard man, and then there is us Assur."
"Recently, a young ancient sage has come to this world frequently. He left behind several sons of the ancient sages. My prophecy shows that these two sons of the ancient sages will bring changes to the world. I don't know what kind of change this will bring.
Bring stability to the world... or bring destruction."
"Whether it is stability or destruction, Ulthuan will not allow such people to exist!" Imrik said with confidence: "I will make these two so-called sons of the ancient saints understand that if they don't obey, they will die!
"
"..." The giant dragon exhaled lightly, and the breath of sulfur and star fire came out of its mouth: "Huh~"
"But don't worry, Minatnir, unless all the sons of Caledor are killed in battle, we will never let the dragon clan disappear. This is the ancestral covenant." Imrik said with certainty: "I will make peace with Ancient
Contact the Sons of Saint to see if they can cooperate, or I will seize their secrets and power for the sake of Caledor and the dragon family!"
"Whatever, be careful. The power of the son of the ancient saint may be beyond your imagination." Minatnir spread his wings and left: "Also, if you want to awaken more dragons, the dragon horn is essential."
"I know!" Imrik nodded and watched his companion leave.
The son of an ancient saint?
Ha! In terms of strength and courage, no one can compare to the Dragon Prince of Caledor, and no one can compare to the last Prince of Caledor, Imrik!
