Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

In the manor outside the city, a discussion belonging to young people is going on, and all the people present are the reserve dragon prince who will be the backbone in the future.

But at this moment, they were discussing what exactly this knight order was.

"First of all, I think that since Caledor's Knights must add the fire dragon logo, it should be called the Dragon Heart Knights!"

Kunel, the son of the champion warrior, slapped the table and expressed his thoughts without hesitation.

But Orthea, who was the second seat, had objections.
"Kunnel, first of all, the fire dragon logo is exclusive to the royal family. Although we are a knight order established under the prince's instructions, we are not directly under it. And Caledon's only fire dragon logo is the national flag and the dragon tamer family flag. What are you planning to do?"

Quinil, who was somewhat proud of his fatherhood, was at a loss for words for a moment, how could he not know about this, but the dragon symbol is a temptation that every Caledon cannot refuse, and it symbolizes the supreme honor.

Chief Elvis nodded in agreement,
"The application for the dragon logo needs to be reported to the court, which is a very troublesome thing; and the core of our belief is Sotek, which has been said a long time ago."

"Elvis, would you kneel down and kneel down to a crawling snake? This is simply a disgrace to the Harandur family!"

Compared to his father, Masno, Quinil undoubtedly seemed a little irritable, emphasizing Caledor's superiority.

These words made Pacal, who was watching the meeting next to him, stop his thoughtful expression, and took a few steps forward, intending to tear the elf cub into pieces.

The blessing of the great lord Kroka allowed him to understand things that most lizardmen could not understand, and the blessing of Sotek allowed him to be born. The Sealed Monitor Lizard does not allow anyone to insult Sotek!

"Pacal! Remember the agreement between the two of us, I will handle this matter well!" Elvis signaled the monitor lizard not to move with a cold face, and then said to Kunil,

"No matter how you belittle it, Sotek has become a part of Caledor's beliefs. This has been approved by the court and the noble council. If you dare to say similar things again, this knight order does not welcome you, and I will accuse you of insulting the gods!"

The people present were made a little noisy by this serious tone, discussing the impact of this matter in low voices.

It is conceivable that Orthea accidentally revealed before that this may be the prince's selection of some people. If they perform outstandingly in the Knights, there will be a place for the alliance ceremony of the dragon's awakening, and they can only admit it with their heads down.

Seeing that the people present did not continue to refute, Elvis nodded secretly. He vaguely sensed something in his heart, but before he figured it out, it was best to follow the prince's instructions to get things done.

"The logo of the Knights will be an obsidian giant snake, which symbolizes Sotek's belief at its core, and the shading pattern is a volcano, which indicates that the members will be composed of Caledonians. Blood drips from the mouth of the giant snake. This is our theme, to sacrifice blood for Sotek."

A banner was carried up by a servant and placed on the long table. Everyone could feel the aura above it personally, and unconsciously felt the blood in their minds, but their keen senses showed that it was an illusion.

"The full name of the Knights is-the brotherhood united under the protection of Sotek to avenge Chaos."

Elvis clapped his hands, and Skink Priest Gaguyal stepped out of the shadows, his body was entwined by two poisonous snakes, and at first glance it seemed that there were three heads on his shoulders.

A viper with red scales and long horns on the tip of its nose, and another viper with a dark gray body and a bulging belly.

The poisonous snake stuck out its forked tongue and looked at everyone present, as if it could record it in its mind.

"Because of the results of my previous communication with the Snake God Prophet, I think it is necessary to conduct an initiation ceremony to screen members. These two poisonous snakes are the hosts of the ceremony."

A person who has studied animals in Lustria immediately stood up and looked at Elvis with disbelief,

"Are you crazy? You should know that these are Agkistrodon and Agkistrodon. The former's venom is deadly enough to kill a bull within half an hour, while the latter's venom can severely corrode the nervous system and quickly paralyze it permanently. We are the Caledonians, not the savage monkeys of primitive tribes!"

These words worried Orthea, who was fully supporting her. She didn't know there was such a link, but seeing Elvis' serious expression, she knew that this matter could not be faked.

"No, I'm not crazy. If you want to participate, you can stay. If you don't want to take risks, you can leave now, 10 minutes."

Some people began to hesitate, but the person who was familiar with the poisonous snake had already left immediately. Maybe the elf's superb medical skills could save a life, but it would also cause terrible hidden dangers.

One after another, some people cursed that Elvis had turned into a lizardman, and dared to use such a barbaric ritual.

He didn't care about these useless insults. After 10 minutes, Elvis looked at the 97 people present and knew that it was time to take the next step.

No one knew what Elvis saw in the Scarlet Pyramid of Chakua, but since the bloody road came out, he has become a fairly devout Sotek believer, at least he will not doubt the power that the God of Vengeance can bestow.

The two most deadly venomous snakes in Lustria, the golden lancehead and the giant viper, were placed on the table by the Skink priest. First, they bit Elvis's two arms respectively, and after injecting some venom, they slowly crawled towards the nearest Orthea.

Out of the physiological reaction of women, Orthea was a little afraid of these two squirming cold-blooded creatures, and her subconscious action was to burn them into a ball of coke with a fireball.

But seeing the sternness on Elvis's face, he could only close his eyes and let the slight tingle come from his lotus-like arm.

Those who stayed were all arrogant and arrogant, anyway, no one could see the harm of these two gadgets, relying on their firm belief in the father of dragons.

Not to mention venom, even if it was Nurgle's plague cauldron, these people dared to walk around it and drink a mouthful of soup at the end.

Five minutes later, the two hosts performed a welcome ceremony for everyone, climbed back onto the Skink Priest, and faded into the shadows.

Ten minutes later, the poison started to take hold. Some unbelievers realized the seriousness of the matter at this time, and tried to dispel the toxin in the body with the dragon thunder, which only knew a little, but it had no effect at all.

Lips began to turn purple, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his eyes were blurred, and his body became numb and unable to move.

Twenty minutes later, the not-so-strong mage began to fall down. Judging from the violent chest ups and downs, it seemed like the last struggle before death.

Three or ten minutes later, Elvis was the only one still sitting on the chair, silently watching Kunel falling to the ground with his eyes wide open.

Watching everything that happened in the courtyard, the last survivor murmured,
"Sotek, can you really perform as predicted..." (End of this chapter)
