Make the dragon great again

Chapter 37 The sense of urgency from the blood

To the south of the Great Mullin Forest is the Great Quintus Swamp.

The area of ​​the Great Quintus Swamp is much larger than that of the Great Mullin Forest, and even larger than a normal kingdom.

To the east of the Great Swamp are some scattered small countries of the Gaia species, to the south is the forbidden zone [Mist Sea], and to the west, it crosses the plain at the southern foot of the Roaring Mountains and connects with a powerful empire in the west of the continent.

Legend has it that in the early days of the Second Era, the Great Quintus Swamp was still a fertile land with a pleasant climate, where many races established their own civilizations, making it the most prosperous area in the Silias Continent;

But in the middle of the second era, some of the most powerful phantom creatures on the Sirias continent at that time broke out in a protracted war in the sea south of the continent, which was called the [Battle of the Misty Sea] in history;
This war not only turned that sea area into a restricted zone of life, the "Mist Sea", it even permanently changed the climate in the southern part of the Sirias Continent;

The fertile land of Quintus, once the most prosperous civilization on the mainland, has become a large swamp with constant rain all year round and extremely harsh climate.

Today, tens of thousands of years later, the Quintus Swamp has long since lost its former civilization and prosperity. Most of the intelligent races that once established civilization here have either migrated away or simply become extinct...

The intelligent races that are still here are only some Gaia species that have not formed a civilized country and still exist in the form of tribes.

Among them, there is Party A and the Swamp Lizardman that Anna and others have entrusted this time.

Yes, even though this team of rookie adventurers has encountered a Goblin walled city, tried to be trapped in a dungeon, and experienced a series of major events, even Anna, who is the center of the team, has a different purpose, but they went to Quintus The original goal of the Great Swamp was to complete a commission.

……

"Finally out of the forest!"

"Finally, I don't have to apply herbal juice to my body every day!"

"I need to find a place to take a shower!"

Howling, several rookie adventurers in the team tore off the worn cloaks that had been worn for more than half a month and soaked in herbal juice to repel insects and mosquitoes.

This is exactly the group of Anna who just walked out of the scope of the Great Mullin Forest.

Meanwhile, Rex, William, and Coleman were already familiar with these rookie adventurers.

Rex, who was dressed as a solo adventurer, smiled and said to these rookies:

"Don't be too happy, there are more mosquitoes in the Quintus Swamp than in the forest, you have to be mentally prepared."

The burly Han Coleman with a serious face added:
"There are relatively more beasts in the forest, but there are more insects in the swamp, and because of the climate, some of the insects here are even bigger than the beasts in the forest."

The teenagers wailed suddenly, and the two women, Anna and Sally, turned pale with fright.

"Uncle Rex, Uncle Coleman, you know a lot. You should be famous adventurers in the guild, right? I remember hearing your names somewhere..."

The one who spoke was Karen, whose family had been adventurers for generations.

In the past few days, the strength shown by Rex and Coleman has already convinced these rookies. It is not the opponent of the two.

Rex smiled and said:

"Haha, there are at least ten people with the same name as us in the guild. It's normal for you to have heard of it."

The identities of Rex and Coleman are not sensitive, and it's okay to be exposed, but since 'Mr. Ed' didn't speak, they naturally wouldn't take the initiative to express it.

Speaking of which, the three of them were brought by Adrian's side, except that William was a bit special as a dragonborn, Rex and Coleman were both brought by Adrian's side in order to ask for some common sense.

Although Anna and her companions can also provide the information Adrian needs, they are not as experienced as these two senior adventurers after all.

At this time, Rex's mentality was relatively relaxed. After he knew that 'Mr. Ed' intended to help the Kingdom of Behemoth, he directly expressed to 'Mr. Ed' that he would serve His Royal Highness the First Princess in the future, so that This earned him the favor of 'Mr. Ed'.

So now he doesn't need to be as panic-stricken as before, and he is even excited because he has the opportunity to get along with a powerful fantasy creature.

Rex looked at Coleman. Although the other party looked very calm on the surface, the traces of restlessness still showed that the other party was not calm.

Rex shook his head secretly.

'Since William has already concluded a contract with Mr. Ed, wouldn't it be over if you just pledge allegiance to William?Sigh... I really don't understand why you got involved in these disputes among the nobles in the first place, obviously you are not that material. '

Rex felt a little sorry for his old opponent, but after all, the two sides had been hostile for many years, and since 'Mr. Ed' was right next to him, he couldn't say a word to remind him, so he simply pretended not to see it.

'good luck……'

At this time, everyone had just left the forest, and they were on a long and narrow plain where the Great Mullin Forest and the Great Quintus Swamp intersected. Only after crossing this plain, which was less than two kilometers wide at its widest point, would they reach the real Great Swamp .

Under the suggestion of Rex, a senior adventurer, everyone was preparing to enter the Great Swamp, and Adrian found Anna.

"Where is your teacher in the swamp?"

Anna found a map, pointed to a place on it and signaled to Adrian:
"The destination we entrusted is in a forest in the northeast of the swamp, and the teacher is in the middle of a large lake in the south of the forest, where there is an ancient ruin."

"Ancient ruins?"

"Half a year ago, the teacher said that she found an ancient relic related to a certain period of dusty history, and then hurriedly left Gaotalin alone, and I also returned to the kingdom..."

Anna suddenly became silent, and her mood became a little depressed.

Adrian knew the reason, because Anna had a conflict with the eldest son of Grand Duke Griffin on the way back to the Kingdom of Behemoth half a year ago, and this incident was later used by the Principality of Griffin as an excuse for war;

As a result, Anna herself was charged with unnecessary crimes by some people in the country, and she had to escape from the capital and start a wandering life.

Being betrayed by one's own country and being convicted inexplicably would not be easy for anyone. It can be said that Anna has been able to persevere so far because she has a very strong heart.

"You don't have to worry too much..."

Adrian comforted:
"...They were just bewitched by the unknown monster that occupied the ancestral land."

Anna nodded, her face changed from cloudy to sunny, and she cheered up and said:

"With the help of Mr. Ed and the teacher, we will definitely be able to find a solution to that monster!"

Adrian also nodded slightly, looking to the northeast with deep eyes.

When he learned from Alvarez that the dragon had completely disappeared as early as the late second era, Adrian felt a sense of urgency all the more.

This sense of urgency not only comes from some of his own speculations, but a considerable part comes from the depths of his own blood...

It was as if, after learning that his race might have become extinct, his body spontaneously developed an instinct of "wanting to seek the truth".

Therefore, Adrian has already made up his mind to deal with the unknown fantasy creature occupying the ancestral land of Bechymos——

Behemoth's bloodline originated from a certain dragon predecessor in the middle of the second era, and that period was not far from the late second era when Alvarez said that "the dragon is extinct";

Therefore, in the ancestral land of Bechymos, it is very likely that there are clues to the source of their blood, the unknown senior dragon, and this senior is likely to be one of the last batch of dragons that were still active before the dragon disappeared. !

Based on this alone, Adrian had to... no, he had to go to the land of the ancestors.

And the unknown fantasy creature occupying the ancestral land is the enemy!
Adrian took a deep breath, calming down the boiling blood in his body, and suppressing the instinct of "flying to the land of the ancestors to drive the enemy away immediately".

"Now is not the time, learn about the secret history of the Dragon Clan and Bechymos from Anna's teacher first, and don't let your blood instincts make rash judgments..."

……
