Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

During the two months, some major news came out from the newspapers from time to time. Some people who were quite respectable in society and were role models in the eyes of everyone were sent to the execution ground.

The original place of execution was a deep pit outside the city.

A wild tyrannosaurus will be arranged in the pit for execution. If the victim can escape alive from the tyrannosaurus's mouth, it means that the ancient sage believes that he is not guilty.

Needless to say, no mortal who has endured the test can escape the bite of the ancient predator, and eventually turns into a ball of fertilizer for Lustria.

But as society becomes more civilized, this cruel method is also banned by more reasonable means. A runic guillotine forged from meteorite iron and dragon fire will quickly execute those who have committed crimes in a dignified way. Leave the world behind.

Regardless of their status, when facing this guillotine, they will all get the same end without exception.

And no one paid much attention to whether this guillotine, which was placed in the suburbs and was worth a lot of money, would be coveted.

Everyone who walks through this suburb will feel that in just two months, His Highness the Prince has arrested hundreds of suspects and restored social stability. Under the rule of the Dragon Palace, we are really safe.

No one cares whether they are cruel and arbitrary. If they want to survive in a dangerous world, people understand that they must give up some unnecessary ideas.

Otherwise, some terrifying existences that even regard cruelty as cruelty will destroy everything.

The tense atmosphere in the city did not affect the troops about to go on the expedition. Tens of thousands of soldiers were assigned to various training grounds according to their respective combat needs, and they lived a devilish life in an orderly manner.

Originally, in the first month, Yiga could still organize training with his subordinates, but as the staff went crazy, a grassroots officer learning mobilization meeting was held.

His daily work consists of studying various battle analysis in the lecture room in the morning, studying relevant literature in the afternoon, and writing a report on his experiences in the evening.

Although life was difficult, fortunately, with the arrival of the professionals promised by Adela and the abducted supplies, he was barely fully prepared.

Three days before setting off for the old world, a marching order finally freed the soldiers from the heavy training. The city hall prepared a large amount of food and drinks for these warriors who were about to go to the front line. Along the empty area outside the military base, people were on the spot. Have a party.

Tens of thousands of people gathered here, trying to use emotions and hard-to-give-up liquor to persuade the men who are going to the battlefield. We are all here waiting for you. Please remember to come back.

But this did not include Yiga's parents, which made him sigh as he looked at the atmosphere around him. He could only stand alone in the crowd, like the midpoint of a circle, the same distance from everyone, but himself Very different.

"Where are your parents?"

The inexplicable sound coming from behind made Yiga couldn't help but look back, and found that a man and a woman had appeared out of nowhere, holding tall crystal cups in their hands. Their temperament was as relaxed as if they were on an outing, and they were incompatible with the surroundings.

After repeated identifications, Yiga thought he had never seen the speaker before and asked in confusion,

"you are?"

The man chuckled for a while, and his face changed briefly, which allowed Yiga to see his face clearly—Dracnir.

The officer who was about to stand up straight and salute found that his body had become so stiff that even his lips could not move.

Draconir took two steps forward and came to Yiga's side. He looked at the people around him who were crying or laughing, encouraging or complaining, and said silently,

"The humans Adela values ​​should not be so stupid."

Sorry, the first time I saw you, I really subconsciously bowed...

The words were not spoken, but the body was able to move.

Yiga straightened his body, and after observing the woman next to the prince, he immediately changed his gaze and responded,

"What's your purpose of coming here?"

The officer subconsciously believed that the prince's purpose here was to find enemy agents lurking in the crowd, but the facts showed that the Sons of Caledor never regarded them as a real threat. "Oh, I have no intention of looking for spies all day long. I am more interested in the living conditions of the people under my rule than those damn traitors.

The long history of infiltration by Druchi spies has left the Dragon Court feeling numb. But the history of ruling mankind is very short. I need to actually observe, understand, and analyze it before I can finally draw a conclusion. "

"I'm sorry for my stupidity, but I don't quite understand His Highness's intentions..."

Dracnir took a sip of wine and said calmly,

"You were very smart. You returned to the military camp immediately after the banquet. You never went near the city for two months and there was no possibility of contact with Pearson."

"I'm just doing my duty as a soldier and not getting involved in anything irrelevant."

"Yes, fulfilling the duties of a soldier..."

Dracnir nodded thoughtfully, turned his head to whisper with the woman next to him, and then changed the topic back.

"Telling back to what happened just now, where are your parents."

Yijia showed a hint of embarrassment and loneliness, shook his head and said,

"My father did not support my enlistment in the army. If it weren't for Sir Adela's help, perhaps today I would be either kneading wheat flour in a bakery or an intern under a certain judge."

Don’t support enlistment?

There was confusion in Draconir's eyes. Judging from his father's deliberate adjustments to human society, the only way to truly gain status in recent years was through the military.

Having money and power is not as good as being able to fight. Even if it is difficult for these humans who graduated from military academies to obtain the status of a dragon prince, it is still easy to gain respect in human society.

As for worrying about death, the barbarian has a strong ability to withstand death, and it is not within the scope of the prince's consideration at all.

Confused, the prince used magic to connect to the Information Processing Facility. This key facility stores a large number of Caledor's information files. In addition to the top-secret documents kept by the Dragon Court, most of them can be found here.

Soon, the truth appeared in Draconir's eyes.

Yiga once had a brother who was eight years older. As a member who met the requirements of the Gulam Plan, he was recruited by the court to Anaheim...

Drachnir, who didn't know how to feel about this, shook his head silently. Perhaps on the battlefield in the bad land, Yiga could meet his brother, and the scene of the meeting could be dramatized.

The father tried his best not to let the second son become like the eldest son, but fate always plays a little joke on people.

One is an officer human with a superior life. With a chosen destiny, he will devote the rest of his life to the battlefield.

One is a slave soldier who has lost his humanity. In the forced fate, he forgets everything.

The prince patted the officer on the shoulder. For him who inherited the blood of Caledor, this kind of action was very easy in the physical realm, but for an emotional Asur, this kind of action was very heavy in the psychological realm. .

"I hope that I, who is staying in the palace, can see your name in the battle report one day."

With his female companion, the prince walked to other places, preparing to experience this strange atmosphere firsthand. The heart is the most difficult to fathom. The son of Caledor, who is still young, thinks that he still needs countless experiences and mistakes before he can understand how to be a human being. ruler.

And Yiga, after watching the prince leave, drank the kvass in the cup in one gulp, silently exited the open space where thousands of people gathered, came to the sea, clenched his fists and looked to the east.

There will be the first step of my honor, or the grave of my life! (End of chapter)
