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

Chapter 78 Dark Elf

In Netrelan's dungeon, the stronghold of the Nightblade family, the dark elf Anya entered an empty reception room.

The reception room was dark, but she didn't turn on the lamp, but sat down on the chair in the center of the wall of the reception room. There was a pair of armor decorations beside the chair.

The moment she sat down, three figures suddenly appeared around her, as if they were already here.

"Mistress." The three of them half knelt down to Anya.

There was no dark elf among these people, but an elf and two humans, each with mechanical indifference.

There are several settlements of dark elves, large and small, all over this continent, and Nitrilan in the desert area in the northwestern part of the continent is the largest one.

The Nightblade family is the most powerful family in Nitrilan. Not long ago, the Nightblade family, which was in the limelight, successfully suppressed other families and became Nitrilan's de facto controller. Although there is no official declaration, the mistress of the Nightblade family can already be regarded as Nitrilan's queen.

And Anya is the daughter of Mistress Yeren.

The Nightblade family is most famous for its "maze" for training professional assassins. They not only put talented young people in the family into it for training, but also recruit mercenaries, wanted criminals and defectors from other races from the outside world, and even occasionally capture slaves and train them to become assassins after being brainwashed.

Such a move allows the Nightblade family to have assassins and spies of different races, who can be placed in various national forces to spy on intelligence or carry out assassinations.

"I still want the information on the red dragon, and I will start reporting from you." Anya pointed to the elf on the far left first.

"Yes. I went to Twilight Autumn City and found out more details about the red dragon's participation in the battle in Twilight Autumn City. According to the testimonies of the soldiers who participated in the battle, the red dragon seemed to have used some very special spells in the battle. Not only could it breathe poisonous mist similar to that of the green dragon, but it could also use holy light spells." The elf spy mechanically reported.

"Dragon can use Holy Light? Are you sure?" Anya confirmed to the other party.

"A number of witnesses have been asked, and the confessions in this regard are all consistent and should be credible." The elf spy replied.

Anya thought for a while, then turned her gaze to the next human: "What about you?"

"New information was obtained at the Longkou Fortress. Before the empire released the news that the princess was kidnapped by the red dragon, the Dragon Head Knights used the Longkou Fortress to take a secret operation abroad. The knight leader Lucio was suspected of participating, and the operation failed.

Witnesses said that they saw the knight team retreating back to the fort for help. According to the description, the leader of the knight team may be wearing Lucio's special armor. The retreating knight team also called priests and doctors for him. "The other party made a report respectfully.

"The possibility that this matter has something to do with the Red Dragon?" Anya asked.

"There is no definite evidence to prove the connection, but judging from the time point, the possibility of the connection between the two is very high." The other side reported seriously.

Anya was lost in thought.

Assuming that the actions of the Dragon Head Knights are related to the matter of the Red Dragon, it means that Lucio, the knight king of the empire, was repelled during the crusade against the Red Dragon, and then returned to the Longkou Fortress in embarrassment.

And because of this hasty retreat, the Yeren family arranged for people in the empire to find out about this operation.

A red dragon that is far from growing to the level of an ancient dragon repelled the legendary warrior who led the attack?

Combined with the reports of the spies sent to Twilight, it seems possible to infer that the red dragon has some kind of special power, which can even make it better than the legendary strong.

It is impossible to make up for this gap by practicing spells alone. The most reasonable explanation is powerful props, magic tools, artifacts or other foreign objects.

The moment this thought came to mind, a gleam flashed in Anya's eyes.

"What about you?" Anya looked at the last person.

"Grand Duke Xihe offered a reward to the Red Dragon because his eldest son was killed by the Red Dragon Kuja, and commissioned Beishan Kingdom to manufacture a large amount of dragon-slaying equipment, which may go out within half a month." The other party answered very concisely.

"You have done a good job." Anya replied very satisfied. With a wave of her hand, she aimed at the three of them and threw three silver daggers, "Go and receive the reward first."

The three of them raised their hands at the same time, easily catching the flashing dagger in the darkness, just like holding a table knife casually, the silver dagger was their token of reward.

"Thank you, mistress." The three of them disappeared from the room without a sound, without any sound of footsteps, as if they never existed.

Then Anya stood up, and within the range of her breath detection, the breaths of the three subordinates disappeared, only her, and the decorative armor next to the seat showed breath.

Anya suddenly bowed respectfully to the armor: "The above is the report for this time, Messenger."

When she was sitting in the seat, she personally applied breath shielding to the armor beside her. Even the three outstanding subordinates did not realize that the decorative armor was actually an iron golem made by a mage, and it was a very high-level golem, which could be remotely controlled by the maker to act as eyes and ears.

"Continue to pay attention to the news of Red Dragon, and then report again." The other party only gave this reply.

"Yes." Anya bowed her head respectfully.

Then the golem fell into silence, and the breath quickly faded away.

Anya left the reception room with a blank expression on her face, but at this moment, a strong sense of nausea rose in her heart.

"This family is hopeless..." She thought to herself.

It should be said that the whole of Nitrilan was lost.

As the heir designated by the mistress of the Yeren family, in this family, she doesn't need to think highly of anyone except her own mother.

But she had to bow down to a golem, because the master behind the golem represented a powerful power, a power that now enslaved the Nightblade family.

Ironically, the reason why the Nightblade family has been able to rise in Nitrilan in the past ten years is because they have found a good backer.

And the saddest thing is that this "backer" was not even the active choice of the Nightblade family. The Nightblade family became the helm of Nitrilan because that force chose them as a tool to control Nitrilan.

The mistress pushed the matter of contacting the messenger of the backing force to her daughter Anya, which made Anya deeply dissatisfied.

"Damn old woman, push me the disgusting job of nodding and bowing, and I know it's embarrassing!"

Almost every time she got in touch with the envoy and was ordered around by the other party, Anya would accumulate a little more resentment in her heart.

No matter how big an enslaved family grows, it is only a collection of slaves.

Who the hell doesn't want to inherit this kind of family, I must find a way to get out!
The red dragon on the north side of the empire, the target designated by the emissary to spy, resurfaced in her mind.

The red dragon is now very famous in the empire and Muxia. At the request of the messenger, she spied a lot of side information.

The power to defeat the legendary powerhouse...

To escape from her family and slavers, she needs that kind of power!
There is value in serious consideration, but before that, it seems that we should test it a little more.

Fortunately, according to the intelligence, there will be forces to help her do this soon.
