Chapter 5 Gray Street
When Al's snoring sound came, Oro sat down by the window alone, blowing the night wind to sort out his thoughts.
There are actually four Dragon Kings.
This stupid dragon really remembered an incredible thing.
If this incident gets out, it may be enough to shock the entire continent.
"Warcraft Illustrated Book" is a picture book handed down from a long time ago, and it is also the basis for most people to identify Warcraft. The Dragon King in the "Warcraft Illustrated Book" is a red dragon, bathed in a sea of fire, with two tails and two sharp horns on top of its head.However, if it is true that the Dragon King has four heads as Al said, then the portrait of the Dragon King in the "Warcraft Illustrated Book" is completely wrong.
The four heads had a dispute, and one dragon king split into four.
With that said...
Oro silently tightened his hands.
Are the four habitats of the Dragon King in the legend true? !The four habitats are the sleeping places of the four dragon kings!
And the eyes of the dragon king sold by the three magicians are also real... Those eyes are the eyes of the dragon king who was killed as said by the red dragon.And the person who killed the Dragon King was the one wearing the cloak!
Oro's gaze moved to the edge of the bed.
Xiao Feilong lay on his back, his belly bulged slightly, rising and falling with his breathing.
The man in the cloak approached Al while he was away, probably with some nefarious purpose!But how did the man recognize Al?
Ah, wait……
Oro narrowed his eyes.
—when they saw the three magicians.
Although I don't know why the cloaked man can know that the Dragon King has awakened, but obviously he doesn't know which one is the Dragon King.So he handed over a pair of real Dragon King eyes to the three magicians, and through them spread the news that "Dragon King has been killed", and then attracted him and Al.
It was then that the Cloaked Man discovered Al's existence.
However, if the purpose of the cloaked man was to kill the Dragon King, why didn't he kill Al at that time?Not only did he not kill Al, he even tempted him with bacon and gave him gold coins?
"..."
Oro stroked his chin.
Why did he unknowingly bring this stupid dragon into the role of "Dragon King"?
This stupid dragon often made him feel the pain of communicating with creatures with different IQs. Apart from verbally resisting him, he had no other weapons. With a piece of bacon, he could be satisfied, and with a gold coin, he could absolutely obey. How could such a...so simple and frightening dragon be the Dragon King? !
This night, Oro was thinking about all kinds of complicated and weird things in his head, and couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
The next day, instead of going to the next town as planned, they headed westward and arrived at a place in the dark.
This place is very small, standing on the opening, you can see the end at a glance, so this place is not even regarded as a town.
People in this place call this place Gray Street.
Gray Street is on the border of Ruby's kingdom, between the crevices of the mountains, a place of mixed fish and dragons.Going further to the west, after crossing the mountains, is the Kingdom of Art.
Gray Street often gathers people from these two countries, and the atmosphere is always delicate.
There are underground merchants here, they sell human skin masks and fake identities, some rare monsters and magic poison.There is also an auction house here, which sells various items banned by the country.It was also always a place of refuge for wanted criminals.
It can be said that Gray Street completely ignored the existence of the law.
However, due to its special geographical location and other special reasons, the two countries have not taken action against it yet.
"Why are you here? Are we not going to the capital?" Al asked suspiciously, lying on top of Oro's head.
"Don't you want to know what happened in your dragon clan?" Oro said, "It's not easy to meet a dragon in other places, but there are many of your clan in this place, and we can get a lot of information."
"Intelligence? What intelligence?"
"..." Oro let himself be patient, "Your dragon clan has four dragon kings, and one of them is dead, so there are three left."
"Um...then what?"
"How did that dragon king die, and who killed it? Did the person who killed that dragon king only target that dragon king, or did he aim to kill all dragon kings?"
Al shrank his neck, pressed his body against Oro's hair, and whispered, "Is that person going to kill me too?"
"Ah!" Oro suddenly stopped.
Al was startled, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"
"I thought about it," Auror suddenly realized, "Although I don't know why that person wanted to kill the Dragon King, but obviously he thinks that you will not pose a threat to him, or whether you are the Dragon King, whether you are alive or dead is to him There is no difference, so he didn't do anything to you!"
Al: "..." Why does this human being always mock him seriously.
Al felt uncomfortable with the atmosphere of the street.
The faces of the people who passed by them didn't look very good, which made him feel a little scared.These people gave him a cold feeling, completely different from Oro.
Al tensed up and flew down from the top of Oro's head and landed on his shoulder, pressing hard against his neck, his skin.
Sensing Al's uneasiness, Oro was slightly surprised.
This is the first time the dragon has shown a frightened emotion about things around it... frightened?
Hmph... This look made him feel a little cute.
Soon, Oro found a red dragon pattern on the corner of the street—it was the logo of the dragon dealer.
A man sat casually on the ground, yawning.
Oro walked over.
A shadow fell, the man raised his head, and the first thing he saw was the small blue scaled flying dragon on Oro's shoulder.The little flying dragon glanced at him with mung bean eyes, then quickly moved away, rubbing his forehead against Oro's neck.
Although Al didn't speak, Oro miraculously found that he could read the meaning of this stupid dragon.
—He wants to get out of here.
But not yet.
"You tamed the baby dragon well," the man raised the corners of his lips, and said to Oro, "Want to see the adult dragon?"
Oro throws a copper coin and the man catches it.
"Take me to see."
Oro and Al followed the man across the street and up the hill.
It didn't take long to arrive at a cave, and there were two men guarding the entrance of the cave.
Walking into the cave, there was a smell of burnt things mixed with a bad smell, and Oro frowned.
Al flapped his wings again and again, and stepped on Oro's shoulder uneasily, as if he wanted to escape at any time.
Oro said softly, "What are you afraid of when I'm here?"
Al was silent.
Walking into a passage that was neither long nor short, they came to an empty space.
It would take a lot of space to hide more than a dozen adult dragons, and all the more than ten dragons were bound by thick and heavy chains and connected to the wall.Not only that, but they are also kept in iron cages one by one - it will take a lot of effort to trap them.
The roof of the cave was charred and black, and it seemed that many dragons had sprayed flames angrily.
"What kind of dragon do you want?" The man glanced at Auror, "The one that is too ferocious may eat the little guy on your shoulder."
"It doesn't matter," Oro said with a smile, "Which one is the fiercest dragon here?"
The man also laughed and pointed behind Oro.
Oro turned around.
It was a black dragon.
The whole body has pure black shiny scales, and the eyes are scarlet, staring at Oro motionlessly, forming a sharp contrast with the restless dragons around.
The quieter it is, the more infiltrating it explodes.The most terrifying thing is not feeling the slightest breath.
Oro walked over.
Heilong looked at him without any movement.But soon, Oro realized that the black dragon's eyes did not fall on him, but on Al.
Only then did Al let go of his courage, and raised his head to look at the black dragon.
"Ask it, how much do you know about the killing of the Dragon King?" Oro said softly.
Al flapped his bat's wings and flew up, reaching the height of the black dragon.
Footsteps came from behind, and Oro turned sideways, and saw the man looking up at Al, his eyes narrowed.
"Do you know what happened in Mufa Town?" Oro asked proactively.
The man shrugged and said, "Are you also interested in the Dragon King? Even if you spend money to buy the most brutal dragon in the world, you can't deal with the Dragon King. There is an essential difference between the Dragon King and ordinary dragons."
Oro thought about it.
"Do you want this young dragon to help you choose?" the man asked.
Oro raised the corners of his lips.
"Yes."
"Your Majesty the Dragon King, why are you here?" the black dragon said slowly.
"...I, I heard that a dragon king died, what's going on?"
The feeling that the black dragon gave Al was completely different from that of the red dragon yesterday.
This black dragon is much stronger than that red dragon, and also...many, many times stronger than the current him.
That's why Oro said that there is absolutely no way he could be the Dragon King... because the Dragon King can't be so weak, and it's impossible for him to feel scared when facing such an ordinary adult dragon.
"..." The black dragon was silent for a while, then said, "When did you wake up?"
"what?"
"You seem to be missing a lot of things."
"..."
"That's right. Recently, almost all the dragons have felt that one of the dragon kings has disappeared, but there are not three dragon kings, but two."
Al froze.
"What... mean? Where is the other Dragon King?"
"Do you remember Sisi, Your Majesty the Dragon King?"
"Cersi?"
Sisi...
Al remembered that Oro told him that there was a story about the great magician Sisi 1000 years ago.He was killed by a mutant of the Dragon King.
"What happened to Sisi? Isn't he the same person 1000 years ago?"
Al asked a word, and suddenly received many fierce responses.
All the dragons in the entire cave became restless, struggling with the iron chains and roaring angrily, which surprised the man and Oro.
"What happened?!" The man turned around and looked around, looking suspiciously at Auror, "Who are you?"
"..." Oro sighed, "Probably my dragon said something to the dragon here."
"Say... what?" The man didn't seem to understand what Oro meant.
"I don't know." Oro shrugged his shoulders with an innocent face. "Humans can't understand the language between animals."
"Are you really here to buy dragons?"
"Well, not really."
"Then what are you here for?"
"When I picked up this dragon, it was abandoned by the side of the road," Oro clutched his chest, "I wanted to raise it to grow up, but it didn't get close to me very much, only when I saw an adult female dragon It will only react a little when it is time... so I decided to take it to find its biological parents! Now it seems that its biological parents should be here..."
"Can I ask you to leave?" the man asked blankly.
"Wait a second, please," Oro said seriously.
Al was also taken aback by the dragons around him who seemed to be breaking free from their chains.
"Sisi is the enemy of the Dragon Clan!"
"How could His Majesty the Dragon King forget such a thing!"
"Your Majesty the Dragon King, please liberate us!"
"Solution, liberation? What?" Al didn't know how to respond to the dragons, "I, I don't remember anything before I fell asleep..."
"Your Majesty the Dragon King, have you forgotten who killed you 1000 years ago?"
Al froze.
"Sisi took half of your dragon core 1000 years ago, and with only half of the dragon core left, you lost your mind and lost half of your strength. The cunning and hateful Sisi took the opportunity to kill you, it was Luther Your Majesty protected your remaining half of the dragon core, and hid it on Mount Most, allowing the energy and natural atmosphere there to re-breed you. This is also the reason why you are still a larva until now——you It is His Majesty Al after rebirth."
Al swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Before you, Sisi had already killed His Majesty Gaia. After you, Sisi obtained half of the power of the Dragon King, thereby sealing the dragons of the entire continent... that day, our dragons fell asleep because of that power We got down, and when we woke up, we found that we could no longer transform into human bodies, and even our strength was restrained." Heilong paused, and said slowly, "Now, the other Dragon King, I don't know who killed him. Dead, only you and His Majesty Luther are left as the Dragon King alive. Please be sure to liberate our Dragon Clan, and let our Dragon Clan... rule the entire continent again."
"Your Majesty Al!"
"Please free us!"
"Please rescue us with His Majesty Luther!"
The dragons howled, and the whole cave seemed to vibrate.
The person holding the handle at the entrance of the cave felt something strange and ran in, shouting loudly: "What happened?"
Auror was turning his head to explain, when a shadow flashed in front of his eyes, and the little flying dragon rushed into his arms with a "swoosh", its claws grabbed the front of his chest, trembling.
The man frowned and said to Oro: "No matter what you are here for, I really want to ask you to leave now."
Oro nodded slightly: "I'm causing you trouble."
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the man patted him on the shoulder and pointed to the group of dragons behind them: "Since your little guy has excited the group of dragons, can you calm them down?"
Oro looked at the little flying dragon buried in his chest, and hesitantly touched his head.In the past, he was able to order this guy confidently... Now that he looks like this, he doesn't know how to speak.
But probably hearing what the man said, Al raised his head slowly.
The dragon group suddenly became quiet.
The man looked at the dragons in surprise, then quickly lowered his head to look at Al.The latter had already buried his head in Oro's arms again, looking a little listless.
