I'm a dragon, I only want to steal princesses

Chapter 178 Gift from the Blood Prince
hours later.

The huge bone dragon landed at the station on the outskirts of the city, and a group of imperial soldiers gathered around to help it, but few dared to approach it immediately, and eventually a circle of onlookers formed at a distance.

A dragon with only skeletons left will not release dragon power like a living dragon, but it still has an almost terrifying sense of oppression. And after its death, with the blessing of necromancy, it has a different kind of power that is different from that of a living dragon. The intimidating power of the dragon with the aura of death.

The imperial soldiers who were watching suddenly parted a road, and the knights in gorgeous robes strutted along this road towards the direction of the bone dragon, without being affected by this pressure at all.

Prince Aliu walked along the bone dragon's spine to the dragon's skull, overlooking the knight from a high position.

"The vitality that permeates your body can rival that of a giant. You are indeed the dragon-slaying hero of the empire." Prince Aliu bowed gracefully to the other party, "It's an honor to meet you, Your Excellency the Prince...or, the King of Knights." Does this title ring louder to you?”

Prince Lucio, the knight king of the empire, led a small group of knights and rushed to the northern border station of the empire overnight, where they met with Prince Aliu's troops.

"I am also honored to meet you, Lord City Lord of Dark Night City." Lucio greeted expressionlessly without saluting, "Welcome to the Empire's Longkou Fortress... Although I really want to say this, I actually I don’t really like meaningless politeness.”

"I think etiquette is still very important, but I respect that young people don't like red tape." Prince Aliu said, jumping off the bone dragon's head and landing lightly on the ground.

He refers to Lucio as a young man, but in the eyes of many Imperial soldiers, he seems to be a generation younger than Lucio.

This difference is not only reflected in appearance, but also in temperament.

Lucio looked stern and serious, and his demeanor seemed more like that of a stereotypical middle-aged officer, while Prince Aliu, who was hundreds of years old, seemed much more frivolous, and did not have the stability that an old man should have.

"I came to meet you at the appointed time, but I didn't see you. The subordinates stationed at the station said that you led the team beyond the Longkou Fortress without authorization?" Lucio asked Prince Aliu seriously, his attitude vague. The meaning of questioning.

"I thought I could deal with that dragon easily, but he was calmer than I thought. It's a pity." Prince Aliu smiled and spread his hands.

"Didn't you read the documents I sent to you before?" Lucio frowned slightly.

"Look, the tower you mentioned that can release skyfire is indeed dangerous, so I tried to lure him out of the territory..." Prince Aliu explained his actions today.

Lucio took a deep breath and tried to keep his tone calm: "Your Majesty the City Lord, you took our troops to go on an expedition without authorization, and ended up losing several elites because of the red dragon. Why didn't you wait to join me before taking action? ? Why not follow the original plan and wait until the troops are assembled before launching an attack together? "

"I admit that I was very anxious. The plan that I had laid out for more than 300 years was about to be realized. As a result, a red dragon came out and blocked my way. It was not an ancient dragon. I didn't think it was right to wait so many days for such a dragon. It's very necessary..." Prince Aliu looked a little playful.

"That red dragon is not so easy to deal with, although what I say may be a bit of an excuse. I was just like you back then, and ended up suffering. Not to mention, that dragon's power has grown a lot now. "Lucio said.

"Yes, I can see it now." Prince Aliu looked at Lucio with a smile on his lips, "Did he inflict this injury on you?" There were burns on Lucio's neck and face. The scars on his body extend all the way to the base of his neck. It is not difficult to imagine what he looks like on his body.

He was hit head-on by the sky fire released by the Judgment Angel Ring, and suffered extensive burns that put him on the verge of death. If he hadn't used the "Jedi Counterattack" to catch his breath in time, and the concentrated treatment of the empire's high-ranking priests and paladins, he would have died. He should have died in his first fight with Ganon.

"Yes, this is a lesson I have learned. I sincerely hope that you will not taste the same bitter pill because of overconfidence." Lucio warned seriously.

"Okay, I will keep it in mind. I have to admit that I am a little willful, but it is not without any gains." Prince Aliu raised his hand and pointed behind him, "I have tested the new works a little, and you provided The keel is very useful, I used it to scout the territory of the red dragon."

"I'm honored that the harvest of my previous hunting can be put to use for you." Lucio nodded expressionlessly.

"Let me make some compensation. This gift is for you." Prince Aliu suddenly smiled and took off a dark red ring from his hand and handed it to Lucio.

"I have no reason to accept your gift. If you want to send a gift to Her Majesty the Queen, you can directly send an envoy." Lucio said seriously.

"No, this thing is only useful to you." Prince Aliwu said with a smile, "This is a magic weapon that can perform necromancy. It was made by me. With your strength, it should be easy to use it. If you can bear it, you can use it to...manipulate this."

Prince Aliu said, pointing to the bone dragon behind him.

Lucio's face showed a trace of surprise for the first time.

"Your flying troops use bipedal flying dragons. It is very difficult to ride such things to deal with real dragons. You should know this. This thing can help you." Prince Aliu said with a smile.

After just a moment of hesitation, Lucio reached out and took the ring: "Thank you for your generosity, I really need this."

"You're welcome, this is also for my own plan to go smoothly." Prince Aliu smiled even more on his face, "By the way, if you unfortunately die in the battle and the body is still intact, I can still pass the The ring casts necromancy and turns you into an excellent death knight. But don't worry, you should also know that with your level, my necromancy may not be able to completely bind your spirit, which is protected by the God of War, and turn it into death. After becoming a knight, you can still act according to your own will, but I don’t know if you, the Prince, can accept it.”

Lucio put the ring on his hand: "I was born with a sword, so naturally I don't mind being effectively used on the battlefield. If possible, I hope that I can still wield it as a sharp blade in His Majesty's hand after I die. .”

"No offense intended, wouldn't it be too frustrating to pursue power to this level, but only live for others?" Prince Aliu looked at Lucio playfully.

"The pursuit of a way of survival is the freedom of the strong, and I just chose who to live for based on my own will. What is there to feel aggrieved about?" Lucio replied nonchalantly.

"Okay, young man, just be happy." Prince Aliu grinned, "I think we may not get along very well, but I still wish us a happy cooperation when we slay the dragon together."
