Black Dragon Code

The bonfire on the wall was burning vigorously, and under the reflection of the fire, the projection of the black dragon on the wall behind was like undulating mountains.

However, the room is not hot at all. After moving to the Rhine Court, Caesar’s habitual spirit of pleasure has never changed, so there are huge hard-melt ice all around, and he has been blessed by magic, which always outputs coolness and disperses it. The heat above the ground.

On the opposite side is a series of steep stone steps with a large number of steps, with a vertical height of more than 20 meters. Although this is nothing to Caesar, it is already quite steep according to human concepts. If you want to see the black The emperor's throne, they had to turn their necks up at ninety degrees.

This is the masterpiece of the caster team.

Usually, Caesar sits on the huge throne at the top, issuing orders and summoning people. He didn’t realize it when he was the leader of Blackwing Nest, but since he ruled the northern kingdoms, Caesar gradually fell in love with it. ——There is nothing easier to enjoy the fragrance of power than to rule over mankind.

The Rhine King's Court is located at the highest point of the royal capital, and under the influence of spells, it continues to grow higher, showing the prominent position of the power center of the entire northern kingdom.

When Caesar stepped out of the royal court, he could see the capital city stretching in front of his vision, and at the end there were endless mountains. It was the Mostel Valley that almost ran through the Northland, connecting the Northern Kingdoms with the wild. Wilderness, the old site of Black Wing, and the uninhabited land farther away are separated from the north and the south.

At his feet, there is an elegant and peaceful garden, and behind him is a sea of ​​flowers.

It's hard to imagine that this is the environment around a dragon's lair, but it is true, and it is more beautiful than people imagine.

"This is the garden of Queen Luna." The leaders of the Blackwing clan called it in private.

When the weather is good, the black dragon will get into the sea of ​​flowers and bask in the sun with Luna, calm down the power of the dragon, let the ignorant bees and butterflies wander around him, and occasionally lie directly in it to sleep, emitting a burst of light. Another snore.

Although the Northland is a remote place, as the supreme ruler, Caesar enjoyed everything he could enjoy except for his personal maid, and the contact with human beings also evokes a lot of memories of his previous life. In his previous life, he Surely you can't get these things in your dreams.

The northern countries belong to the corners of Elradia, and their layout is too small to be compared with the central city-states and the empire of the unfallen empire. This place is very weak, whether it is human beings or other creatures, and all kinds of resources are scarce. .

But precisely because of this, Caesar was able to bring the entire Northern Kingdoms under control so easily.

You must know that even if you have been promoted to a legend,

In the well-developed region of Elradia, it is still a fantasy for a dragon to rule such a large population. In the core area of ​​Elradia, legends abound. The red dragon Aksuye, known as the "Queen" some time ago, was slaughtered , is enough to demonstrate its dangers.

——Of course, one fact that cannot be ignored is that Aksuye is not a lord dragon, but a solo dragon, who wanders around on weekdays and lacks dependents. His own laziness and arrogance have already laid the groundwork for her demise.

The Northland is very good, at least it is true for the current Caesar. Such a region that does not border the outside world and has no interference from foreign objects is precisely the best place for the Black Wing Empire to set sail.

Recently, the "Detailed Accounts of Domestic Payments" submitted by the rulers of Faye, Dalos, and Noren have arrived at the Royal Court of the Rhine one after another. After sorting out by Hogg, they finally reported to Caesar.

In fact, the IQ of the wolf man is not high. Even if he is very talented, Hogg is only at the middle level among human beings. After ruling the northern countries, the Black Emperor has many candidates who are good at politics and planning to replace Hogg. Location.

But the leader of the wolf man has been with him for more than ten years, his loyalty is beyond doubt, and he has never disappointed Caesar, so he has a lot of feelings for this guy, so he continues to let the leader of the wolf man stay by his side. Arranged under Hogg to help the leader of the Wolf man deal with the sundries.

Back to the topic.

The income and expenditure of the countries in the Northlands are very simple. The export output from most to least is: slaves, wood and wild animal furs, and the bulk imports are various metals, weapons and equipment, and food.

All the import and export methods were transported southward by large caravans controlled by the nobles. They traveled around the country until they arrived at the central city-states.

Caesar frowned. The largest output of the northern countries is actually the human trade.

As the ruler of the evil dragon, the black dragon itself is not very opposed to this evil deed, but the crux of the problem is that the slaves sold by the northern countries are not savages or aborigines captured from other places, but slaves from within their own countries. s population.

Simply retarded.

Even the stupid and greedy kobolds would probably not do such a stupid thing of catching fish. These upper-class nobles really can do anything in order to make money.

When it comes to wood, Caesar finally knows why the Sailong Gobi became a Gobi desert. The disaster dragon Angela once mentioned that in her dragon inheritance, Sailong was originally a fertile rainforest like a green field. The orc fortress lived alone, but now, that place has turned into a desolate mudflat.

This is not a change without reason. Of course, Caesar is not interested in being an environmental ambassador, so let's look down.

fur trade.

The northerners and adventurers crossed Moster to the north, entered the wild and green fields, hunted a large number of birds and beasts, and then sold them at a low price to noble buyers in the capital. The nobles sold some of them themselves and then produced them outside. .

This is probably the only relatively healthy industry.

Caesar thought for a while, since Black Wing came, the population can no longer be sold, at least not now, Black Wing's Lair currently needs a large number of slaves to serve it.

As for the other two items, they can still be maintained, but the control will be transferred to the hands of Black Wing Nest, which will be dumped by the royal court.

These alone are not enough. If you don’t want the Black Wing Empire’s plan to be difficult in advance, and you don’t want to pay for subsidies yourself, Caesar has to think of other ways to pry money.

Elegy cards can only be regarded as a sideline business at best, and before getting market feedback, you can't pin your hopes on the cards.

What should I do?

...

Jon Arthur had already taken the time to set off, leaving Kehor and heading to the Northland, but turned back halfway halfway and returned to the Central Free Trade City.

It wasn't that there was something wrong with him, but he kept walking along the road to the Northland. As the distance got closer, he heard more and more news on the way. Almost everyone said that the Black Emperor had become a legend , itself is far beyond what ordinary black dragons can compare, possessing almost endless mighty power.

There is also a legend in the Northland?

Jon Arthur returned suspiciously all the way. He felt that if the other party was really a legendary dragon, it would not be worthwhile to take such a risk to kill a demi-lich.

After all, the legendary ancient dragon is not comparable to the legendary sword master. To be on the safe side, at least a whole legendary team is needed to go together to hunt a legendary dragon, and the other party has dependents.

Or...forget it?

He thought, why not just forget about it, anyway, he didn't explain to anyone before, and the subjects of Kehor didn't know what he was doing, so he gave up halfway and couldn't lose anyone.

But after thinking about it, Jon Arthur still felt unwilling.

That undead scum is now living a peaceful and stable life under the back of the legendary dragon, and the so-called "Dragon King", who killed him, didn't even have the slightest apology. This matter must not just be like this never mind.

OK, pay and find someone.
