Chapter 125 "Shadow Blade"
Dorian has been searching for the Eternal Queen for four days. After moving to the west two days ago, the number of people killed has gradually increased. He has arranged it according to the highest level search team, but he still cannot resist the dragon lord. Three The team of cold lizard knights were killed.
He began to hate this environment full of huge trees and low vegetation everywhere. The cold lizard's ability to capture warm-blooded animals was weakened. In order to capture the Eternal Queen, he had to divide his forces to capture, but the dragon lord's The number of people in this team must be kept within a reasonable range, otherwise it will just be a sacrifice for Kane, which makes the search effect extremely poor.
He began to miss the ice fields of Nagaroth, fighting in an environment that he was extremely familiar with, not in a place like this.
Dorian already knew that the Witch King was beginning to lose his patience. Four senior Kane assassins had been sent by him to Eden Valley to find the Eternal Queen. Last night, they had found themselves.
If he loses the grace of the Witch King and loses the value of being exploited, death is just a decent ending. He chose to leave Avalon without permission because he was afraid of this ending.
It's time to use some new methods to find the Everqueen. If the Dragon Prince succeeds in bringing the Everqueen back to Caledor, no matter how the war ends, he will surely die in Ulthuan.
Alexandra, the chief sorceress of Grond, who was once his lover, could only do this even if she didn't want to.

"Something's not right." Alarielle's eyebrows had been furrowed since the morning, and she felt a strong sense of uneasiness.
"Our queen has sensed something from this land again. Don't tell me that those big trees are telling you about Druchi's movements." Imrik, who was sitting next to him, picked up a kettle made of deerskin and filled it. Take a big sip, wipe your mouth and say.
"I feel that there is something strange in the air." When she said this, Alarielle hesitated, but her tone was very sure.
After listening to her words with a frown, Imrik first sensed the surrounding environment. It was normal. There were only some birds and small animals passing through the forest from time to time.
Looking at those birds, Imrik also began to feel that something was wrong. Various different birds seemed to start to gather in groups, flying in the sky together, and then stood on the branches, and their eyes seemed to emit a strange red light. .
After increasing the level of dragon transformation, the dragon's power began to disperse towards the birds, but unlike falling to the ground as expected, they still stared at the two people with their glowing red eyes.
"Someone used magic to control these birds." Imrik expressed his judgment.
"They are possessed, and one of them has returned to the operator." Alarelle saw a sparrow that had begun to turn back, knowing that it was no longer safe here.
"How far is it from the western port?" Imric stood up and asked Alarielle.
After hearing this, the queen thought about it, raised her head and said, "It will take about three days to leave."
"Walk."
Imric made a judgment that there was no point in staying here. Even if Alarielle could find a hiding place, it would just be a slow wait for death. What the Dragon Prince was good at was never guerrilla fighting, but frontal combat. It is wise to crush the enemy directly on the battlefield and leave Avalon as quickly as possible.
Carrying Alarielle on their backs, the two of them had become accustomed to this behavior along the way.
In another place, Alexandra, the chief sorceress of Grond, stroked the head of the sparrow that had returned the news for a while, and then the bird's head exploded, and a fine mixture of plasma splashed around the tent. The warlock licked the blood on his face with his tongue, opened his purple-black lips and said.
"Found it, just to the northwest."
With a series of rallying horns, led by the Cold Lizard Knight, the First Army of the North of Naggaroth began to take action. Unless the Dragon Lord really turned into a dragon and flew away with the Eternal Queen, it would be impossible to escape from Ava. Long!
Imrik, who was carrying the Eternal Queen, pierced the necks of the two Druzi with his spear. He looked around and saw that the magic-controlled birds had been completely burned by the flames of his heroic spear, but their positions were already gone. After being exposed, even if he could run again, he would not be able to outrun those wild beasts with him alone.
Taking off the equipment of the dead Druzi, Imrik asked Alarielle to put it on, which should be able to confuse some of the vision.
Although the Eternal Queen was a little embarrassed, she knew that this was a time of life and death and she couldn't care too much about being reserved, so she took off her outer clothes and put on the equipment of the Dread Spearman wearing only her underwear.
Imrik glanced at Alarielle unintentionally, and then immediately averted his gaze. It was really big, much bigger than Alarili's. This could only be attributed to the original ecology and pollution-free nature of Avalon's food.
"How do you tie this up?" Alarielle said a little anxiously. Her figure was not petite, but very tall. However, this kind of armor used by Druchi men obviously did not fit her body. shape.
Walking over, it turned out that Imrik had the same idea. The two pieces of fat on her chest made it impossible to tie the leather rope on the back of the armor. He walked behind her and said, "Please bear with me, don't do it next time." Feel good."
The queen nodded. After venting for a while yesterday, she was much stronger than before.
As Imrik tightened the leather rope, Alarielle felt a strong squeezing feeling and endured the pain. Just when cold sweat began to appear, she heard a voice behind her.
"Okay, put on the mask and go find some dirt to cover your face."
After finishing dealing with Alarielle, Imrik looked at the equipment on his body. The Caledor Armor and the Spear of Valor were a bit eye-catching, and the powerful magic on them could be felt as long as they were close, unless Druzi was blind. Otherwise, why can't I see that I am a Caledonian?
Thinking of the Stone Crow Amulet I got yesterday, I came up with an idea. First put Druchi's leather armor on the outside of Caledor's armor, then cover the body with black cloth, tear off a few strips of cloth and wrap them around the Spear of Valor. Tie it behind your back, get a mask and hood, and pick up this repeating crossbow.
"Let's go, Wollaston." After loading two arrows into the crossbow, hanging it behind his back, and pulling out two Druchi short blades, Imric said to Alarielle, with a hint of Druch in his tone. Qi's unique madness and coldness.
Wollaston? Alarielle was a little confused when she heard this strange name, and then realized that it was a pseudonym, referring to herself, and then asked Imrik, "What is your name?"
"Shadow Blade."
