The ancient dragon of Arknights

Rita held a small mirror in front of Losili - what reflected in her eyes was herself who couldn't suppress the corners of her mouth.

'Ah - what am I laughing at?It’s already this time, why do you still want to laugh? ! '

Losili herself didn't know why she became like this, God knows what happened to her.

Chapter 70 The Duke’s Gaze x2

The gears of time turned slowly, and two weeks passed again.

During this period of time, Nesario did not cause any trouble; during class time, he listened carefully to the lectures and was active in his studies; in his spare time, he interacted friendly with "3+1" girls.

As time goes by, the four-person group that initially got together by chance has now become best friends.

Neltharion, Chen, Fiona, and Rita - these four people have been registered as a team. A normal team consists of an offensive guard, a heavy armored shield guard, a long-range crossbowman, and a light vanguard. , as the number of people expands, intelligence officers, medical warlocks, attack warlocks and other types will be added.

In short, the core of a tactical squad should be balance and diversity.

And the team composed of four of them... can only be said to be extremely strange.

Fiona - assault; Chen - raid; Rita - battlefield command; Neltharion - weapon of decisive battle.

Remotely?defense?Spell?Not at all!

What Konoe F4 emphasizes is: "Have a blast with you!"

As long as you are bitten by these four guys, you will die or I will die.

But looking at the entire Guards Academy, which team can compete with it?Rita's command can use experience and rare troops to regain the victory, Chen's superb swordsmanship can be used to kite with long-range weapons, and Fiona's brute force can also be used to attack - but that *Victoria swears! How to solve the problem of Neltharion? !

In a head-on confrontation, the person will be beaten away with a knife; a side attack will be blocked by the person's tail, and one tail with two fists can defeat six hands; long-range weapons cannot distance you at all, but will stimulate Neltharion's hunting throb. .

Now, I believe everyone in the same grade is trying to figure out how to deal with Neltharion and his team.Especially the core of this team - Neltharion himself.

"It will be the first large-scale exercise in a while. Have you made any tactical arrangements?"

At the dinner table, Nesario's words focused everyone's attention on Rita.

He and Bagpipe have an adequate level of communication about tactical command. They cannot polish a battle into a work of art, but they will not make particularly outrageous command mistakes.

In terms of tactical command, Chen and Rita are the top students, but Chen's command style and combat method are more like Dayan. In the Victorian-style Guards Academy, she cannot predict the opponent's intentions very well, that is to say ——All tactics can only be expected from Rita.

"I have communicated with the captains of several other teams. How can I put it... our team will not play any role except for attacking fortresses and breaking through strongholds. We will be a surprise force on the battlefield."

"Understood, human bombs. If you can't attack for a long time, throw us over. Then Fiona and I will work together to tear a gap in the opponent's line, right?"

"It's true..."

"Oh! In other words, Nana and I are the key to the whole battle, right!?"

'No.More like an outcast like The Expendables. '

Neltharion currently only has outstanding speed and strength, as well as abilities such as fighting and beheading; he does not yet have the ability to blow away the opponent's people and strongholds with one breath, which means - he is not yet able to decide the battlefield by himself. situation.

Neltharion now sincerely hopes that his spiritual space will bring him in again. The power of slaying the dragon makes Neltharion extremely intoxicated, which makes him look forward to the prey after slaying the dragon.

What kind of existence can defeat a monster like Zhanlong?

Neltharion couldn't imagine it now.

'Speaking of which, the origin of that scale is still unclear... Can Losili find out about this thing?It seems a little too embarrassing... Let me just say, it would be great if there is something to gain.No clues and no losses, right? '

'Speaking of which, this week is the day to exchange information with her?I wonder how her investigation went. '

Nessario thought about it carefully and found that his life was not at all calm on the surface; it would be better to say that he had been walking a tightrope. He was a nobleman in Londinium, one of the eight dukes, a hidden danger of the Glasgow Gang, and I don’t know when. The identity of Drak will be announced to the world.

"So, Fiona, you have obviously learned mechanical engineering skills, why can't you even use a simple communicator?!"

"Well... Well, at least I can drive the tractor very well, right? I can also use those big guys, but the communicator is too fragile... I put a little force on it, and it started to smoke. This must be a quality problem of the engineering department!”

"Fiona is suitable for using large machinery. If it's small... haha."

After getting acquainted, the four of them all figured out each other's personalities - Rita and Chen had many topics to talk about. They were both from noble families and ambitious. They even agreed that Fiona was noisy and wanted to find someone. I have a chance to give this guy Neltharion a good beating, but he deserves a beating too much!

'Hopefully I can graduate safely and at least enjoy some peace. '

The ordinary Mr. "Waifan" prayed sincerely.

......

Still on the more secluded bench, Losili and Neltharion sat side by side.

This time, Losili returned the favor by bringing a cake to Nesario, which was said to be her most recommended flavor.

"Durian...how can this thing be combined with cake? If it is the Dior work last time, I swear on my stomach, this guy is definitely a bastard."

"Um...but this thing ranks first among the most popular afternoon teas in Londinium."

"Have they considered what to do with species with a sensitive sense of smell? This thing is attacking my nose like a biological weapon."

“But it’s delicious to eat!”

After the simple greetings ended, Losili took out her investigation results from the small bag she carried with her.

"Based on the approximate location you pointed out, I can tell that that place is the place closest to the palace in the Otkrieg District. The people there are not simple."

"I see, is this what is often said in Yanguo dialect as 'at the feet of the emperor'?"

Neltharion didn't know whether Yan Guo had this sentence, but others didn't know either, and it was Chen who taught it.

"Based on the appearance and actions you mentioned - I can probably guess it. The person you are fighting against is the current 'Duke of Cumberland'."

OK, that's it.

Neltharion no longer has expectations for his future.

Who would have thought that a nobleman's mansion that was robbed by chance was also a duke's mansion! ?After Nessario came to Londinium, his identity was revealed twice to be the Duke or his subordinates.

Who else! ?The Eight Dukes might as well come to Londinium for team building. Nesario might be able to perform a talent show for them then.

Chapter 71 Cumberland, you don’t want Aslan’s royal family to decline, right?

"The Eight Dukes provoke two people. I think there are not many people in Victoria who can achieve what I have achieved."

Nessario has accepted this matter. The only thing he can expect at this moment is that the two dukes are at odds with each other. It is best to fight over the matter between him and Vina until they have no time to care about themselves. is the best case scenario.

"No, no, no... Neltharion, you are actually lucky. Because the 'Duke of Cumberland' doesn't have that much energy to do anything to you or that Aslan."

"how do I say this?"

Things have turned around?Could it be said that the Duke of Cumberland is a rare good man?

'Her fierce look that day didn't look like a polite character. '

Her starting hand was a strong wind that could lift people away. If Neltharion hadn't been so powerful, she would have really kept him.

"Judging from the history of Victoria, every head of the Cumberland family is the most reliable supporter of King Aslan; Cumberland is the most loyal supporter of the Aslan royal family. After the previous king was hanged, Cumberland took office The head of the family soon died in the persecution of other dukes. Without the favor and protection of the king, the Cumberland family is now very powerful."

Losili sent pieces of intelligence collected to Nessario, which included officially recorded history, souvenirs from many famous people, and even newspapers at the time - the Cumberland family and his master , that is, the old king was scolded miserably.

"Today in Londinium, the new head of the family rarely attends political events, but the Cumberland collection occasionally appears on the market - her embarrassment is visible to the naked eye."

"In other words, even if we are all in Londinium, it will be difficult for her to organize any effective threat to me?"

Looking back carefully, Nessario did discover some facts that prove the decline of the Cumberland family.

That night, not only did the Cumberland family have no guards, they even had only a few maids. In the end, Neltharion was discovered, and it was the family owner himself who took action.

If it were any other big noble, an alarm would sound, and several teams of private soldiers and police would come upon hearing the news.

"Not only that, she is still relying on the foundation of the Cumberland family for support, instead of turning to other dukes. What does this mean?"

"Cumberland is still loyal to Aslan?"

"This is the only explanation that holds true, isn't it?"

"..."

The situation was suddenly reversed!

What a touching feeling between a monarch and his subjects. Even though his family is in decline, he is still dormant waiting for Aslan's return.To be honest, Neltharion was beginning to envy Veena.

Although the overall quality of the people in the Glasgow Gang is not very good, their loyalty can definitely be trusted; and the noble side... Rita and the White Wolf family behind her are waiting for the opportunity; now there is even a duke to help !

Drake!What about Drake's followers?Why haven’t I met any of them?

Neltharion was extremely angry. He had not enjoyed Draco's benefits and dignity for a day; but the troubles caused by this identity came one after another.

But...a bold idea was born in his mind.

'Hey, hey, Cumberland, you don't want to see Vina suffer, do you? '

There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests - this is a famous saying circulating in the Colombian financial community.

Many wonderful business wars embody this sentence vividly. Two companies that were attacking and smearing each other in the media one day may suddenly join forces the next day.

Drac and Aslan can get along peacefully - so, can Aslan's lackey also sit down and have a talk with Drac?

"By the way, Rosili. I don't think I told you at the beginning, what exactly did I steal from the Cumberland house?"

"You certainly didn't mention it."

Rosili's curiosity was aroused. If it had been before, she might have guessed that it was some valuable property; after all, at that time Neltharion was just a gangster in his eyes, but it was different now. What could it be that Lark risked his life to take?

"That's a scale, and its origin could be a real monster."

"...You don't want me to investigate its origin, do you?"

"This is very dangerous, so I won't force it. You can try it. If you don't gain anything, forget it."

Nessario knew very well that although the Duke of Victoria was extremely noble, he was just an inconspicuous piece of gravel in the long river of history; but if a monster that was tens of meters long, capable of flying and breathing fire really appeared in the world, , which will probably shock the whole of Terra.

Every research institution related to technology, medical treatment, and biology will want to study it.

"Phew...in that case, I need photos and information on the samples."

"Come with me to the Glasgow Gang's stronghold tomorrow. I hid that thing in the Sadien District."

“You want to treat me to Valerie’s cake!”

"...No problem at all."

As a matter of fact, Neltharion and Losili made an agreement for tomorrow, and they had nothing else to do at the moment.

"..."

"Regarding the next large-scale exercise, what will the Intelligence Section's exercise method look like?"

"It's not difficult. Our task is to collect intelligence - each class's combat plan, specific personnel allocation, etc. To put it bluntly, each class is a multi-party force on the battlefield, and our goal is to collect this intelligence."

Good guy, the Royal Guards Academy really knows how to play.

But in a sense, this does make sense as a drill.

Just like at this moment, if Neltharion didn't know anything about it.If Losili chose to ask about their squad's battle plan, he would probably be at risk of leaking the secret.

"I guess this information will definitely be delivered to us in a special way. The classes that are less strict with their mouths will suffer more, while those classes that understand that silence is golden will gain an advantage in the beginning."

If someone detects this information in advance, they can even release false information as a smoke bomb - the game has already begun before the exercise.

"You don't seem worried at all?"

"What do I have to worry about? The highest level of strategy is a scheme. I am the schemer of our class - other classes will definitely not be able to bypass me in their tactical arrangements. Even if I am defeated, there is still Rita and the others. .Nothing to worry about."

Neltharion doesn't think he can really be invincible. If he uses traps and saturation strikes, he will also be ruled out.

But the energy the opponent spent on him was enough for Rita and others to break through their defense.

"Compared with things inside the school, we should worry about things outside the school. I couldn't kill that guy last time, and I don't know when he will come back."

Chapter 72 Wendigo? !

Neltharion felt his senses gradually float upwards, and his originally heavy body began to become lighter, as if gravity could no longer restrain him.

He was familiar with this feeling - it was the new world calling him!The Hunter's Soul is burning!

He suddenly opened his eyes, and the dazzling sunlight made him unable to adapt to it for a while. Neltharion stretched out his hand to block the sunlight - the bracer on his arm was clearly reflected in his eyes, which was a mixture of red and blue, that It is the color of dragon slaying.

"Equipment made of dragon-slaying materials... This is a very popular armor among hunters."

The voice of Meow came from behind Neltharion, and it seemed that he had also been summoned.

"This is... the New World!?"
