Chapter 255: Chapter 179: Welcome to the Black Dragon Empire!_2
Iron Dragons, needless to say, are as sturdy as steel throughout, rendering either physical or skill attacks seldom effective. However, clumsiness has always been the Iron Dragon’s Achilles’ heel.
Green Dragons have incredibly strong regenerative abilities and possess venomous attacks; while Blue Dragons inflict water-related damage, with some variant Blue Dragons having ice-based attacks.
Needless to say, Red Dragons are synonymous with fire and explosions, very much like Bajie.
Yellow Dragon, as the only Ground Dragon among the seven pureblood dragons, boasts an ability envied by all, called Dragon Breath Missiles.
This is less a Dragon Breath and more a spell. By condensing the powerful Dragon Breath, it forms into massive missiles, the size of a small cottage, which automatically tracks any Flying Dragons in any location. Once hit, not only will it inflict significant damage, but it will temporarily rob the Flying Dragons of their ability to fly.
Because of this, no one has ever dared to invade the Yellow Dragon Empire.
For a long time now, both the Black Dragon Empire and White Dragon Empire have been trying to woo the Yellow Dragon Empire to their cause. Once the Yellow Dragon Empire joins either side, victory in any possible future warfare would certainly be theirs.
However, the Yellow Dragon Empire sees clearly. This game of superpowers is better off not being participated in. Despite all being called among the Seven Kingdoms, the Black Dragon and White Dragon Empires are the most potent. Subtly, the Black Dragon Empire has a slight edge over the others. Compared to them, the Yellow Dragon Empire does not hold any advantage. Thus, upon participating in this game, it certainly spells disaster!
"So, this is the Black Dragon Empire?" Long Yi was just waking up and looking beneath him.
It was already nightfall and a huge tower in the distance suggested it was around eight at night.
He was now within the Academy City of the Black Dragon Empire’s Dragon Knight Academy. Thanks to the lights, Long Yi could see the architecture was quite dark. It was different from the world he’d imagined, filled with monsters and strange phenomena, with too many surprises, perhaps?
"Hmm..." Ai Lin, who had just woken up herself, came over, staring down at the brightly lit city below, a sense of vagueness in her eyes.
The dean of Ma Deburg, who had been beside them, wasn’t there without anyone knowing when he left. Long Yi didn’t mind.
At that moment, a pleasant female voice came over the intercom in the cabin.
"Attention all, we have arrived over the Dragon Knight Academy City of the Black Dragon Empire. We will land in approximately twenty minutes. Please get ready," she said.
The passengers in the cabin gradually woke up. Long-distance travel can be tiring, but coming into enemy territory can wake everyone up quickly.
All the people in the cabin were glued to the windows, looking outside.
At the same time, everyone in the Academy City was looking up at the airship.
It was an airship!
A real airship!
An airship that could fly!
People from the White Dragon Empire were the last to arrive. The representatives of the previous five nations had arrived and settled in Academy City much earlier. But now, they came with a rumbling airship overhead, which took everyone in Academy City by surprise.
This world has never seen such a massive airship before.
The airship itself was not quite as large as a young dragon, but what this airship, covered in Rune, represented, was something that every individual with political and military acumen understood.
It meant that the White Dragon Empire, for the first time in many years, has mastered Crystal Core technology, broken through the technological barriers, and begun examining the intriguing ancient civilization!
And the consequences of this move were not merely about flaunting an airship. It could very well lead future wars in a direction that none of the enemies of the White Dragon Empire would want to see.
Imagine. On the battlefield, you are fighting not against someone else’s soldiers but a bunch of golems without thought, pain, fear of poison, or susceptibility to defection. And these golems can be mass-produced!
It’s terrifying!
Countless eyes were watching the sky. Under the backdrop of the black sky, the dazzling light was especially noticeable. The escort Dragon Knights of the Black Dragon Empire have been following this airship ever since the border. Along the way, several batches have been changed, with each Dragon Knight being amazed by this airship.
At this moment, the dean of the Dragon Knight Academy of the Black Dragon Empire was staring intently at the hovering airship in mid-air, its dazzling light emanating from the runes all over its body, dragging a tail in mid-air like a rainbow.
"To think they really reconstructed an airship," said an elderly man standing next to the dean with a gloomy face.
"Your Majesty, shall I go take a look?" asked the dean. This old man was none other than Kaniel Black, the Emperor of the Black Dragon Empire!
"If that scoundrel even dares to send this thing to my doorstep, there must be something he can rely on. But since it’s here, how can we let them leave so easily? They dared to hold my son hostage and sent this airship over. I’d like to see which is more valuable, my son or the people on this airship!" Emperor Kaniel Black smirked, his eyes flashing with a comprehensive plan.
The airship slowly landed on a training ground. The welcoming party has been prepared in advance. They were not Dragon Knights but ordinary protocol officers. Though they were only protocol officers, they were not friendly to these guests who had traveled a long way. It was clear that their gazes at the people from the White Dragon Empire were filled with strangeness.
