Three days later.

The coldest season in the northern continent has passed, and the breath of spring has begun to silently spread across the land.

This is a slightly rolling hilly area.

Amidst the withered grass, tiny specks of green always offer a refreshing and invigorating sight.

The air was no longer dry and cold, but rather filled with a slightly damp atmosphere.

The wind is quite strong.

Suddenly, a double-headed dog-knife-axe banner appeared from the inner side of the valley in the distance. The steep spring wind tore at this strange banner, which carried an indescribable aura, and made it flutter backward, shaking it like a long black dragon trying to break free from the flagpole and take off into the air.

Immediately afterwards, a magnificent knight carrying a high banner rode out of the valley.

This was a strong man, as tall as a tower, riding a fourth-tier magical beast Crimson Blaze Beast, which roared in the wind. Its eyes were blood red, its teeth were sharp, and its pale red fur was covered with phosphorescent scales. Its four hooves were burning with crimson flames. When it ran, it was as if it were riding the clouds and mist, and it was exceptionally swift and powerful.

Following closely behind this incredibly fierce man on horseback was a cavalry of about three hundred people.

The twenty Crimson Blaze Beast Knights, whose ferocity was no less than that of the men who had previously raised the banners, were positioned on both sides of the front of the cavalry in a fan-shaped formation, carefully protecting the flanks of the cavalry.

Slightly ahead in the middle of the caravan, a black behemoth, six meters tall and over sixteen meters long, slowly made its way forward.

On the back of a colossal black beast, as large as a dragon, sits a solemn silver throne surrounded by statues of warriors and goddesses. A handsome young man holds a beautiful black-haired girl in his arms, points to the dancing beast before him, and whispers something in the girl's ear, making her giggle.

In front of the two, a chubby Little Raccoon wearing a grass skirt was reluctantly wiggling its bottom and doing a hula dance.

In the sky, three enormous figures, each over ten meters long and in color—red, blue, and cyan—spread their wings and soared like agile sharks, sometimes high, sometimes low, sometimes fast, sometimes slow. They occasionally let out a joyful long cry, a sound carrying a sacred yet majestic faint pressure that made the birds, insects, and wild beasts in the surrounding hills, grass, and forests tremble and flee in fear!

This cavalry contingent was naturally led by King of Chambord Sun Fei, and his Chambord Army.

With the fighting over the Ajax front over, they finally embarked on their journey home, which they had left four or five months earlier.

" Angela, tell those three overly energetic brats to stop barking all the time. If this continues, our warhorses will definitely be traumatized by their dragon might."

Sitting on the [ Throne of Chaotic Times ] temporarily placed on the back of the Big Black, Sun Fei looked up at the three little dragons, [ Enforcer ], [ Chick ], and [ Punk ], frolicking in the sky. Then he looked at the horses behind the column, foaming at the mouth from frightened by the roars of the three. He truly felt that this couldn't continue. In the past two days, more than a dozen horses in the army had been driven to the brink of madness by the constant roars of these three little dragons.

Yes, it's a three-headed little dragon.

Three days ago, when the Necromancer first saw the three siblings [ Enforcer ], he couldn't help but scream in surprise. This old monster, who had lived for over four hundred years, recognized at a glance that the three little guys who had miraculously hatched from fossil eggs were none other than the dragons, the most frequently appearing supporting characters in countless heroic tales and bards' poems on the Azeroth Continent, and Dragon Clan were basically extinct in reality.

They are the legendary dragons.

After a brief moment of shock, His King was nearly overjoyed at the discovery.

Who could have imagined that three broken stones, bought out of pity for that shivering old man in the snowy night and costing over a hundred gold coins, would hatch into three extraordinary creatures—dragons! Legendary dragons! Hahaha! Once they've been nurtured for a while, and [ Enforcer ], [ Chick ], and [ Punk ] have grown up and been carefully trained, wouldn't that mean that three legendary dragon knights could appear in Chambord City?

Oh right, it seems that [ Chick ] is a female dragon. If [ Enforcer ] and [ Punk ], two male dragons, were to work with [ Chick ] to create another batch of dragon offspring... Hmm? But if they are siblings, doing so seems a bit incestuous... King Majesty suddenly realized that his thoughts were a bit too beastly, so he had to resist the terrible temptation of having several dragon knights and forcibly suppress this filthy and obscene thought.

"They only learned to fly two days ago, and they haven't had enough fun yet." Angela chuckled, covering her red lips, and waved towards the sky.

Boom boom boom!

The three little dragons glided down, but their landing technique wasn't quite right. They crashed heavily to the ground, making a mess of their landing and creating three deep craters. Dust billowed up, and there was another commotion of people and horses neighing in alarm.

Such a hard fall was nothing out of the ordinary for the three little guys. Without the slightest injury, they scrambled out of the pit, squatted down, stretched out their front paws, panted heavily with their long pink tongues hanging out, wagged their tails excitedly, and looked at them expectantly, just like three big dogs.

Sun Fei immediately frowned, covering his eyes.

These three motherless children, influenced by the Big Black, exhibited distinctly canine characteristics in every move, completely lacking the majestic and imposing aura of a dragon, which was utterly astonishing.

Angela took out four low-grade magic stones, and with a gentle flick of her wrist, drew four graceful arcs. Three of them fell into the mouths of [ Enforcer ], [ Chick ], and [ Punk ], while the last one was swallowed by the Big Black's blood-red tongue.

The four guys, completely unaware of how extravagant and wasteful their behavior was, crunched on the magic stone like it was a bean, eating with great relish.

Sun Fei's heart was bleeding.

The magic stones consumed from these four guys over the past few days are enough to train at least ten Three-Star Class mages.

Using magic stones to raise pets is such a luxury; it's practically a crime if word gets out!

Last time, in order to activate the [ Throne of Chaotic Times ], the shameless old man Cain, who didn't care about selling his family's land, had already turned all of His Majesty King King's accumulated magic stones into a pile of dust. Sun Fei went from a millionaire to a penniless pauper who couldn't even afford toilet paper. As a result, he later had to use [ Horadric Cube ] to synthesize a few more high-quality magic stones, and then exchange them for tens of thousands of low-quality magic stones from Abramovich, the manager of the Soros Chamber of Commerce in Twin Flag City, to 'maintain his household expenses'.

But after these past few days, it's almost been eaten up by those four beasts again.

However, such efforts are not without reward.

After consuming the Philosopher's Stone, the three-headed dragon's body rapidly increased in size, as if injected with a growth hormone. Its strength and magic were also increasing wildly, already possessing the combat power of Moon-Rank Warrior, and showing a tendency to become one of the top three Enforcer of Chambord City. As for the Big Black... well, this mongrel dog, which had evolved and mutated in some unknown direction under the influence of the [ Hulk Potion ], could already breathe scorching flames after consuming the Philosopher's Stone, and its physical strength had become incredibly formidable.

After finishing their meal, the three little dragons, tongue lolling out and tails wagging, followed behind the Big Black.

"It's almost time, the Sun is about to set. There's a lake ahead; let's set up camp here tonight..." Sun Fei waved to his attendant Torres, who was standing not far away. " Fernando, give the order to set up camp."

"Yes, sir."

The vast darkness of night quickly enveloped the earth.

Although it is early spring, the nighttime temperature still feels chilly.

However, it's much better than the extreme cold in the desert where people can freeze to death.

On the clear lake surface, chunks of snow-white ice that had not completely melted still floated faintly. The dark lake water reflected the blazing red campfire in the Barracks on the shore, as well as blurry figures.

Further away, the Big Black and the three little dragons were still frolicking and playing in the lake, splashing water everywhere, not yet done with their antics.

" Jessica, you must be tired from your journey. His Majesty asked me to bring you some good food." The firelight flickered, and a dark-skinned, burly man walked over, carrying a food box. He laid it out on a square, bluish-green Rock by the lake and spoke to the graceful young woman who was sitting beside the Rock in a daze.

" Emile, it's alright, I'm not tired. Please thank His Majesty for me." The young girl's graceful and exquisite body was wrapped in a fur coat worth a thousand gold pieces, made from the tanned fur of a snow-white ferret king. The soft white ferret fur accentuated the girl's fair and smooth skin and delicate face, making her incomparably beautiful. Her bright eyes, as clear as an autumn mountain spring, gazed at the shimmering waves on the lake, tinged with a slight melancholy.

This young woman was Jessica, who had become the only female manager of the Soros Chamber of Commerce's Twin Flag City branch.

After becoming the most powerful female executive in the Soros Chamber of Commerce, this girl who originally lived in the slums was like a diamond that had been dusted off, revealing its dazzling brilliance. Her natural beauty and intelligence were on full display in her work, and in a short period of time, she miraculously transformed from an ugly duckling into a swan, becoming the most dazzling and beautiful woman in Twin Flag City.

After seeing Jessica's beauty, some meddlesome bards wrote poems exaggeratingly describing that of the more than 60,000 men in the 100,000 residents of Twin Flag City, apart from infants still nursing, at least 40,000 men regarded Jessica as an unattainable dream lover.

For some time now, it is said that countless young talents and nobles in the city have been lusting after this beautiful and intelligent girl. The procession of suitors once blocked the Ivy Tavern where Jessica worked. There were also powerful figures who did not take Abramovich, the head of the Soros Chamber of Commerce, seriously and attempted to use their power to forcefully take advantage of this seemingly powerless girl.

However, things took a completely different turn later.

Somehow, rumors spread that the girl's older brother was actually a personal guard of King of Chambord Alexander, and that King of Chambord was very fond of this beautiful woman. Instantly, all those with ulterior motives extinguished their ugly lusts, and no one dared to provoke this iron-blooded and powerful King whose sword was still dripping with the blood of the seven noble families of Twin Flag City.

Most of the people in the upper echelons of society had already quietly made Jessica King of Chambord's woman.
