Ferrum and Ladon leave the palace.
Heavy-Metal Dragon's emotions are cold and restrained. Even if he is saddened by the death of a family member, he will never show weakness easily.
So when Ferrum walked out of the palace, Hatchling Dragon all started to take action, and some had already left Ash Fortress.
Lesser Dragon were the first to leave. Several companions did not say goodbye to Ferrum, but only sent magic messages. In fact, they did not need to say goodbye. Lesser Dragon who could survive this war naturally qualified for hunting and gained complete freedom.
Although Lost Wilderness is not small, it cannot be called very big. After mastering the ability to fly, Hatchling Dragon can meet basically every day as long as they are willing.
In the distance, Kेलaili and Mong seemed to be having some dispute. The majestic legendary overlord and Hatchling Dragon overlord were confronting each other. The voices came intermittently. It was probably that Mong wanted to bring Kेलaili back to Marsh Abyss, but Kेलaili strongly opposed it.
Then Ferrum saw Moqi, following an adult Chrome Dragon, seemingly asking something, but the adult Chrome Dragon didn't answer, just stared at Steelspine Plains calmly, like a piece of cold frozen iron.
Xisilanwei·Helos.
Ferrum and Moqi are mothers in the biological sense, but Chrome Dragon's concept of descendants is completely different from other Heavy-Metal Dragon.
Chrome Dragon is the only Heavy-Metal Dragon who doesn't care about his offspring. The true Evil Dragon habit is that although Xisilanwei gave birth to them, he did not give birth to them. They left words in their Dragon Legacy. Ferrum and Moqi have the surname Solaxus, but they don't even know their father's full name.
On the other hand, the descendants of Chrome Dragon don't care about their parents. Xisilanwei has nothing to say to them, and the same goes for Ferrum.
Neither he nor Ladon spoke, but they walked to the corner of the west district city wall and stared at the ruins of the old barracks. That was the place where Nurturer fell. The traces of the battle were still clearly visible.
The sound of wind passed through the scales of Iron Dragon and Chrome Dragon, making low whimpering sounds, and the sounds of people around them gradually faded away.
It's really strange. I don't know what the reason is. It seems that suddenly there are only two of them left in the whole world.
Because he had a soul from another world, Ferrum always felt lonely and separated after breaking out of his shell. He was wary and wary of the world. Many times, even Moqi couldn't understand him. Fortunately, he gradually came out, had a life, companions, and trust and belonging to his family.
At this time, he suddenly had a strange illusion, as if Ladon was the same as him, but why was Archaic Species born with the same vigilance and separation as him?
"I told Veloa that Taigo arranged a trial for me and I must complete it alone. That was his order."
After a while, Ladon whispered, "So Veloa agreed."
"Where are the facts?" Ferrum's Opening Sight ability can feel the semantic meaning of Ladon.
"The truth is, I don't think this war is right."
Ladon turned around. "According to historical description, Storm Family suffered heavy losses in the last Dragon Blood War. Their leader was killed by Taigo. Even Divine Chosen could not confront Taigo head-on. Do you know the power of the Storm Family at the beginning of the war?"
"Three Adult Dragon, five Young Dragon, and one Divine Chosen."
"We have six Adult Dragon and one Young Dragon."
Ladon said, "Our dragon force has an advantage. Although the army is slightly inferior, they have launched an expedition to fight on our homeland. It is still unclear which force is stronger or weaker."
"But they still have allies."
"No intelligent creature will trust its allies to win or lose. Blue Dragon is not a fool."
Ladon shook his head. "They launched a war under such circumstances, not for plunder, conquest and revenge."
"You mean, this war was originally ordered by God."
Ferrum said that this result is not difficult to guess because Blue Dragon finally summoned Divine Punishment.
"Yes."
Ladon said, "And I think that the reason why the family was Divine Punishment was not because the family was powerful, but because the family was trying to gather and nurture Heavy-Metal Dragon's descendants. Maybe the family didn't know how serious this matter was, but in fact, our enemies have been paying close attention to Heavy-Metal Dragon's movements, and it even triggered God's gratitude."
"When Storm Family said it could cease the war, it also asked the family to hand over all their descendants."
Ferrum said that he suddenly remembered a small incident from a long time ago, Gray Dwarves who was smuggled into Ochre Valley.
After he reported the matter, the family immediately implemented a tighter blockade on Ochre Valley, but it still could not prevent the spread of the news. And when the Hatchling Dragons walked out of Ochre Valley, the news became even more difficult to conceal.
"Is it mainly because of Archaic Species?"
Ferrum said softly, "Our existence has brought war to the family."
"There are Archaic Species everywhere in the worlds, but it's nothing."
Ladon still shook his head. "I say this because God's gratitude is incredible, and I have exposed too many things in this war, and I cannot stay here any longer. Otherwise, it may bring disaster to the family."
"Again?"
Ferrum glanced at him. If Moqi were here, he would probably say that Ladon was just pretending to be invincible. However, Moqi's complaints couldn't be compared with Nipo. Nipo could say any weird thing out of his mouth.
"Storm Family will no longer have the ability to wage war in the next few decades, but Chromatic Dragon comes in four colors, red, blue, green and black."
Ladon said, "We have seen the other three, but the most powerful Red Dragon has not appeared yet. If I really cause disaster, it is not something that the family can resist now."
Ferrum looked at his serious expression and couldn't help but said, "What's special about you?"
Ladon looked directly at him and remained silent for a long time.
"I didn't tell her before because she is just a Young Dragon after all. Knowing too much is not good for her, but there are some things that are too late to say, and no one will be able to say them in the future."
Ladon stretched out his paw. "I regard you as her, share this secret, hold my paw."
Ferrum holds it, their claws are intertwined. Ladon claw toes are hard, even compared with Nether Iron claw toes.
His blood flow accelerated rapidly, and Primordial Beast, who was originally weak and dormant, became excited, as if encountering a powerful enemy, and became uncontrollably restless.
Then Ferrum's expression changed slightly.
He heard distant singing. Many years later, Ferrum returned to the midnight after the chewing training. Every talented person among the dragons claimed to have heard loud or small singing that night.
"Scattered Fire Sets the Plains Ablaze?"
Ferrum looked into Ladon's eyes.
"I don't have a mother."
Ladon retracted his claws and took a step back. "My father is a fool."
Ferrum looked at Ladon, wondering what he meant by these two sentences.
"That idiot's name is Jialagedong, and he has been dead for a thousand years."
Ladon said, "At that midnight, I gained part of my memory. Scattered Fire Sets the Plains Ablaze is still Blood Edict of Jialagedong. My awakening only slightly strengthened its effect."
"Supreme descendant?"
Ferrum is not surprised. This is of course a big secret and a big identity. However, Ladon's consistent performance has led Hatchling Dragon people to speculate a lot about his origins. Some even say that Ladon is Supreme's rebirth.
But in fact, God cannot be reborn after his death, so this answer is not surprising.
"So, where do you plan to go after you leave? When will you come back?" Ferrum asked.
"Underdark."
Ladon recalled, "A space node appeared in my memory, a volcanic demiplane. The lava pool inside can temper the body and strengthen my strength. After all, if the family encounters a crisis, I will come back."
"However, looking at it now, there shouldn't be any big crisis after I leave."
Ladon continued, "The hatred between Taigo and Valyria, and the hatred between the family, I will go there to clear it one day. As for you, you don't have to think too much, just live well."
"To say this would be to underestimate the dragons."
Ferrum shook his head. "I want to inherit Valyria's wish. I will pay attention to Hatchling Dragon in the valley, including you of course. Since you haven't defeated my power yet, you'd better not say anything like this."
"I still have three hundred years left in my life, and my body can't use Myriad Weight yet, so I'll leave it to my youth to decide the outcome."
Ladon thought for a while, "I talked too much and too closely today, and I feel a little weak."
He took a deep breath, regained his previous indifferent expression, turned around suddenly, and left Ash Fortress.
"The highest stars, the sun and the moon in the sky? If you can still have the power to rival me when we meet again, then I will agree with you to inherit her wish and make an alliance with you as a brother."
