A strange world

Chapter 1240 Section 162. A gem is missing

Ilimoyas slowly woke up from her long sleep, gracefully stretching out her slender blue dragon body that was more beautiful than a few months ago.

The dragon blood allowed her to increase her strength to a certain extent every time she woke up from her slumber.

Carefully feeling the new power surging in her body, Ilimoyas's gorgeous and majestic vertical pupils stared outside the nest.

Just now, she seemed to have heard the voice of that human.

…

A beautiful girl in a blue dress appeared on the street of Liberty City.

She was like an aristocratic girl who was ignorant of the world. She was curious about everything around her, but because of her cultivation and reserve, she only cast an inquiring look.

The girl in a blue dress was the incarnation of Ilimoyas. She walked in the ever-changing Liberty City without alarming anyone.

It seemed that every time she woke up, Liberty City would undergo earth-shaking changes...

Even the people and things that were once familiar now became specious.

When did that lush tree that was much taller than the city lord's mansion grow? Why are there so many villages and wheat fields outside the city? There seemed to be more pedestrians on the street and more ships in the port. Why are there two railroad tracks extending eastward from the new building called the station?

Ilimoyas saw Grasti following a little girl like a follower, and saw Yumils and Cletaria bullying the only white dragon in Free City with their magic.

Everything in front of her made her feel familiar and strange.

Maybe when she wakes up from her deep sleep, Free City will change even more...

Ilimoyas inexplicably felt an emotion that did not belong here, and it became stronger as she walked through the streets and alleys of Free City.

"There is a kind of bird that cannot be caged, and each of its wings is covered with the glory of freedom!"

The bard on the corner was playing a ballad praising "The Redemption of Betar", and did not notice that a girl in a blue skirt had stayed briefly outside.

No one in the city noticed that Ilimoyas had woken up. Annan's attention is on the movements of the ratmen and demons in the north.

Liberty City is not a city of night.

In the dead of night, only the commercial streets and the coastal streets are still bustling, and other places have already fallen asleep.

At a certain moment, a black shadow swept out of the crystal nest, flapping its wings and floating in the sky, overlooking Liberty City, and then disappeared without a trace——

…

"Woo woo woo woo woo——"

In the middle of the night, Annan was awakened by a tragic cry and saw a three-color ghost floating outside the window, crying.

Waking up at night and seeing a ghost crying outside the window is not scary, but it makes people feel uncomfortable. Annan opened the window silently: "What's wrong with you?"

The ghosts can't speak, but they are anxious to take Annan to a certain place.

Annan followed them to the crystal nest, and then saw... or didn't see Ilimoyas and the treasure mountain.

There was only an empty space left.

The crystal nest was stolen! ?

No... Ilimoyas is missing!

Annan was so shocked that he couldn't react for a while. He stood there stupidly for a long time before running to the nest of the three little ones next door - they were still there, curled up and sleeping.

Annan asked them, but no one knew when the eldest sister left.

Could it be that because he ignored her, Ilimoyas ran away from home! ?

Annan rushed back to the city lord's mansion, and soon, the windows of the city lord's mansion lit up one by one.

Everyone was awakened by Annan, and no one saw Ilimoyas.

"The most urgent thing is to find her..." Annan remembered something: "Lilith!"

Lilith appeared in the hall, and Annan asked: "Did you see where Ilimoyas went?"

"The blue dragon left."

"I know, where did she go!?"

"Outside."

But at least they confirmed that Ilimoyas left on her own and was not coerced by anyone.

Annan took out Ilimoyas's dragon scale and tried to summon it, but the portal was forcibly interrupted just as it was about to take shape.

The most likely possibility is that Ilimoas has returned to the tribe... Annan found the scales of Ilimoas's mother in the magic ring and opened the portal.

After communicating, she learned that she did not see her daughter return.

"Could it be that Ilimoas's rebellious period has arrived..." The Dragon Mother said in a low voice.

"Does the dragon tribe also have a rebellious period?"

The answer is that the dragon tribe also has a rebellious period. Almost all dragons will leave their parents when their offspring reach adulthood. Blue dragons tend to live in tribes, but they still have this nature.

"But Ilimoas is a young dragon..."

"That means you made my baby daughter angry!"

"I think it's a rebellious period too!" Annan immediately changed his words.

Come to think of it. Unless she begs, Ilimoas never goes out, so how could she leave without saying goodbye?

Where could she go?

...

"Hello, Sir Makarov."

Joan lifted the hem of her skirt and saluted the man in front of the castle.

The old butler who led her in said, "This lady is... is..."

Joan said sympathetically, "I am Joan Icosela Jeanne Behdad Clement Montreal."

Montreal?

Sir Makarov's eyes narrowed slightly. This surname...

"You are..."

Joan's head on her slender neck shook slightly: "No need to mention the glory of the past. I am now the messenger of Free City."

Sir Makarov took a breath.

It's right... everything is right!

The relationship between the champion warlock Annan and the Empire has always been talked about by the nobles. Some think that Annan is related to a certain Golden Family, some think that Annan is the concubine of a high-ranking Montreal, and some say that Annan is the illegitimate son of the Montreal Golden Family...

Whichever it is, it shows that Annan Reeves has a close relationship with the Empire - the girl named Montreal in front of him is the proof.

Sir Makarov came back to his senses: "Miss Joan, why did you come to my remote territory?"

"I heard that the Broken Mountains are rich in minerals, and your ancestors, Sir Makarov, came from the Empire, so I came here rashly and wanted to discuss a business with you."

The Broken Mountains are located in the southeast of the Dimon Kingdom. The reason is that Joan learned that there are a lot of minerals here, and Free City has always been short of minerals, so she decided to come and take a look, and after collecting intelligence, she chose to contact Sir Makarov.

Sir Makarov showed a trace of embarrassment: "Miss Joan, you came at the wrong time. We have planned to give up the mining area..."

"Give up? How could this happen?" Joan was puzzled.

"Alas, not long ago, a dragon suddenly came to the growing hills in the west, driving away the nearby miners and plundering the wealth of the rich. The warriors who fought against it were all defeated..."

Sir Makarov sighed.

"Then not long after, a nursery rhyme spread in my territory."

"What nursery rhyme?"

"The content of the nursery rhyme seems to be..."

At this time, the shouts of children came from the street behind him:

"Losing a gem means losing a dragon;"

"Losing a dragon means losing a dragon group;"

"Losing a dragon group means losing a territory."
