Early morning.
Garland opened his eyes and slowly crawled out of the cave. After climbing out of the cave, he took a deep breath of the morning air and stretched lazily.
Then, he slowly crawled to the stream and drank a few mouthfuls of sweet water. Looking at his reflection in the water, he sighed." I don't have to work, and I don't have to worry about being a human anymore. Thinking about it…actually, being a dragon isn't bad…"
Then, he stood up and continued to mutter to himself," Speaking of which…a giant dragon takes a hundred years to reach adulthood. This is a little annoying…In other words…I need to live for at least a few decades before I can do whatever I want…I really want to see what the outside world is like. However, this was not like Earth. It was dangerous everywhere. If he was not careful, he might die. Although as a Holy Dragon, he was popular everywhere, there might be some blind people…It was better to hide.”
As he spoke, he paused and touched his stomach.
Then, he flapped his wings and slowly flew into the air. He began to shuttle back and forth between the trees in search of his prey.
Fortunately, this was a forest, so there was no shortage of animals. He soon found his target, a wild beast that looked like a rabbit.
However, it was several times bigger than the largest rabbit in his memory. It was even bigger than an ordinary dog, and there was a straight horn on its forehead.
However, none of this was important as long as it could be eaten.
He just didn't know how it tasted.
With that thought in mind, he casually cast " Vine Entanglement " to bind the rabbit that was still happily eating grass, making it unable to move. Then, he cast " Levitate " to make it fly in front of him.
"It's so big. It should be enough to make breakfast…"
With that, he grabbed the struggling rabbit and headed back to his nest not far away.
Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, ten years had passed…
He had been living a comfortable life in the past ten years. His body had grown from two meters to ten meters. If he included his tail, he would be sixteen to seventeen meters long. His strength had naturally increased by leaps and bounds. Now, he could crush any eighth-tier enemy. Even ninth-tier enemies were not afraid.
And the territory was not the same as before. It had expanded from less than a few hundred meters to a radius of several hundred miles. Naturally, it also had its own subordinates.
Of course, as a Holy Dragon on the surface, in order not to arouse suspicion, he was still very strict in choosing his subordinates. Therefore, until now, he only had two subordinates of different races.
The first group was made up of Foxmen who belonged to the neutral faction among the Orcs. There were about 5,000 of them in total. There were also neutral griffins, a total of about 1,000.
It was only natural that a few kilometers around his nest had been transformed into a town. As the ruler of the territory, the town was directly named after him," Garr Town." His nest had long since turned into a huge stone hall, standing in the center of the town. Looking from afar, it was quite spectacular.
The morning sun shone on the town. Foxmen who woke up early walked on the streets in twos and threes, breathing in the morning air and talking about various chores. They talked and laughed. Griffins hovered in the air or stood on the city walls, dutifully guarding the peace of the town. The whole town revealed a harmonious and prosperous image.
At this moment, less than a hundred meters away from the central hall, in a relatively luxurious two-story stone house, four people were sitting or standing, looking at each other. They were speechless for a moment.
The two people standing were a man and a woman. The man was wearing armor, and the woman was wearing a brownish-yellow dress with a belt. However, both of them had a pair of brownish-yellow wings on their backs. Their eyes were also different from normal humans. The white part of their eyes was golden, and their pupils were pure black. Their appearances were very consistent with human aesthetics. The man was strong and handsome, and the woman was agile and beautiful. If he was not mistaken, they should be the humanoid form of a griffin.
The two people sitting on the ground looked like middle-aged men. They wore red mage robes with golden patterns. Although they were handsome, they did not look human either. They had a pair of red dog-like ears, fiery red eyes, and a furry fiery tail hanging down from their buttocks. They were undoubtedly Foxmen.
" Roy... A large number of savage beasts are approaching His Majesty's territory. We must be prepared in advance..." Finally, the griffin man spoke. As he spoke, he looked at the fox man sitting on the right.
The Foxman named Roy frowned slightly when he heard this."" Yes…I know…With our current strength, it's still a little difficult for us to fight against them…Unless we have external help…Otherwise…it's hard to say…"
"Damn it! Those brainless beasts! This was the territory of the great Holy Dragon, Garland!”The griffin woman gritted her teeth.
" Sigh... If only they were wild beasts... According to the intelligence, there are thousands of savage beasts, hundreds of high-level ones, and nearly twenty of them have reached the ninth level. They are not weaker than us at all. Even if His Majesty comes to the battlefield personally, our chances of winning are not high..." The griffin man sighed.
"Let's go see His Majesty first. Perhaps His Majesty will have a way." The other Foxman man who had been silent all this time spoke up.
"Yes, that's true. He believed that with the wisdom of the great Holy Dragon, there would definitely be a way.”Roy nodded in agreement.
The griffin man and woman nodded in agreement.
A few minutes later, in the central hall.
A Holy Dragon was lying on a pile of gold coins in the center of the hall. Roy and the others slowly walked into the hall and bowed. Great and wise King Jia 'er!"
Jia 'er opened her eyes lazily and nodded.""Yes…what is it?"
Roy stepped forward respectfully and reported,""It's like this, Your Majesty…"
"…Your Majesty, that's the general situation…" Roy bowed again before returning to the three of them.
Seeing that Garland did not respond immediately, the four of them did not say much and waited quietly for Garland to speak.
"Rien!" Garland said after a while.”
"Yes!" The griffin man heard this and knelt on one knee to obey.
Garland then continued to give orders," You lead a team of elites to the 'Valley of the Wind God' first and wait. That is the only way... When they arrive, launch a long-range attack... Remember! "Don't engage in close combat with them. Open a distance and attack with all your might with the goal of exhausting and delaying them. Try not to have any casualties…If they break through, retreat immediately…However, you have to retreat while fighting. Just keep yourselves in their line of sight…When the time comes, Tina will pick you up…"
Rien stood up and punched his left chest with his right fist. I won't disappoint Your Majesty!"
Then, he turned around and quickly left the hall.
After Rien left the hall, Garland looked at the griffin lady and said,""Tina! You will lead the rest of the troops to wait 500 miles away from the Wind God Valley. When Rien leads the troops back, you will attack together. Focus on long-range attacks first and try to stall for time!”
"Yes, sir!" Tina also bowed and left.
After Tina left, Garland turned to the remaining two." Roy... Steve... you will lead the Red Flame Mages to the destination as fast as possible. When you arrive, just use terrain magic to restrict their movements, and then... wait for my next instructions."”
"Understood!" The two of them bowed at the same time.
The two of them turned to leave, but just as they turned around, Roy, who was meticulous, realized the meaning behind Jia 'er's words.
As he thought of this, Roy suddenly turned around and said in surprise,""Your Majesty? What do you mean?"
Jia 'er nodded." Yes! I want to fight personally…You don't have to persuade me. You should know my temper after being with me for so long…Besides, this is a large-scale savage beast invasion, not a small one…Or? You don't believe in my ability?"
"I wouldn't dare! His Majesty personally led the army! Our army will definitely win!" Roy hurriedly bowed.
"That's right! With His Majesty personally on the battlefield! It was just a savage beast! Our army will be invincible and victorious!”Steve jobs echoed.
Although he enjoyed the flattery, he knew that time was tight, so he said,"Alright! Don't flatter me, hurry up and set off!”
"Understood!" Hearing this, the two of them understood that it was not the time to waste time. After receiving the order, they quickly left the hall.
After the few of them left, Garland's lips curled up slightly, revealing an inexplicable smile." Just in time. Let's try the power of the newly awakened magic this time…"
That's right, just a few days ago, he had awakened a very powerful level 10 spell. However, the people in this world called this spell " profound magic."
The reason why he had ordered them to confront the savage beasts was not only to train their combat ability, but also for this reason. After all, those were his first batch of subordinates. He would not be stupid enough to let them die in vain.
Although he had yet to test the power of this spell, just the description in his memory gave him a hundred percent confidence in this battle.
In the sky above the street, Roy and Selina were standing on their flying magic tools, rushing toward the barracks.
At this moment, Steve said after some deliberation," Roy, although His Majesty is personally on the battlefield…I still think…"
"Steve! Mind your words!" Before Steve could finish, Roy stopped him and continued," His Majesty's decision will not be wrong, and there is no doubt about it. We just have to follow it…With the noble and pure nature of the great Holy Dragon, it will not let its loyal subordinates die in vain…I believe that His Majesty must have a way to deal with those savage beasts.”
"Understood…I'm sorry, Roy. I shouldn't have questioned His Majesty's decision.”When Steve heard this, he looked ashamed and apologized sincerely.
Roy nodded slightly and said," There's no need to apologize to me. It's meaningless. You should go and confess your mistakes to His Majesty…Alright, let's reorganize the army and set off first. We can't waste any more time."”
" Okay, I'll personally go to His Majesty to repent when I come back..." Steve nodded sincerely.
As they spoke, the two of them had already reached the top of the camp.
The two of them did not fall behind. Roy said to the Foxman Magicians who were already waiting in an orderly formation," Since you're all here! Then let's set off! Target! South! Full speed ahead!"
With that, Jouyi waved his arm under his mage robe. Then, he and Steve took the lead and flew south.
The mages below also released their own flying magic tools and flew into the air in an orderly manner, quickly catching up with the two people who were gradually getting further and further away.
