Chapter 173 The Unlucky Dragon
In Factory No. 3 of Dark Night City, Major Odegan looked up at the dark smoke screen that completely blocked the sun and resisted the urge to frown.
In the distance, a towering chimney was spitting out ink-black smoke, forming a large dark cloud directly above the factory and shrouding the factory.
Being ordered by Her Majesty the Queen to send an envoy to Dark Night City to inspect the factories here is undoubtedly an important task, and it should be regarded as an honor for an imperial soldier.
But for a paladin, spending several hours in such a place full of undead is a bit torturous.
"Are you interested in the canopy? Before this device was invented, these skeletons could only work in indoor workshops on sunny days. The sunlight would weaken the control of necromancy and affect the precision of these workers' movements. Now they It truly works day and night, rain or shine."
Prince Aliwu, the Lord of Dark Night City, was in high spirits and kept explaining his factory to her.
Prince Aliu is now six hundred and fifty years old, but he still looks like a teenager. Standing next to him, Odegan, who is over forty, looks like a mother and son.
Not only in appearance, this vampire even looks and behaves like a young man. Although he maintains a polite image, he is not as majestic as most old aristocrats. His expressions are very rich, and his emotions and anger can be expressed in his colors. This makes Major Odegan often forget that the other party is a monster over 600 years old.
Major Odegan glanced behind him. The two young and beautiful girls followed Prince Aliu in an orderly manner, tying silk scarves around their necks to cover the traces of blood-sucking. Because they were under the influence of blood-sucking hypnosis, their eyes were filled with confusion. Somewhat hollow, he just followed Prince Aliu obediently.
When Major Odegan first met Prince Aliu, the young vampire appeared with his arms around the two maids who supplied him with blood. It was said that the prince liked the blood of young women the most, and he would change them every day.
This vampire is full of desire and energy, which makes Major Odegan always think of his young and ambitious Queen.
"Now the first batch of materials has been delivered, and the assembly line designed according to your requirements has been officially put into production." Prince Aliu raised his hand and pointed to the skeleton pushing the huge gear in the distance, "We will take a look at the assembly workshop later. The Nether Fog there is relatively thick. I wonder if you can bear it." "As expected of
Your Majesty the Prince, everything here is in order under your rule. Her Majesty the Queen will be very satisfied." Major Odegan replied politely In official language.
"Of course I will satisfy my allies, and I believe that the empire will not let me down." Prince Aliu smiled elegantly and turned to look at Major Odegan, "I wonder how the task I entrusted went? "
Major Odegan came here as a messenger to check the production status of the factory, but for Prince Aliu, asking about the progress of the commission is a serious matter.
When Red Moon City was breached, Van Helsing's daughter Anne Luojie fled north with the artifact "The Immortal Skull". Since there was no intelligence network in the north of the mainland, Prince Aliu entrusted the pursuit to the empire.
Not long ago, the Empire replied that he had found the whereabouts of Anne Roger.
"We are actively negotiating with the other party." Major Odegan replied.
"You shouldn't. You haven't killed that dragon yet?" Prince Aliu raised his eyebrows, with an expression on his face as if he was asking if the other party was joking, "I heard that the knight king of the empire even killed ancient dragons. "But, it can't be an ancient dragon, right?"
There was no information about the Kingdom of Death. He didn't know anything about the dragon entrenched outside the northern border of the empire, and he didn't even know that it had thwarted the empire's conquest of the western region of Muxia. .
But if there was an ancient dragon in the north of the empire, something would have happened a long time ago. "Of course this is impossible, but I have no right to know this part of the information due to my position. Her Majesty the Queen must have her own considerations. Maybe the red dragon still has some value for the empire..." Major Odegan Try to explain.
But she was only halfway through when she was interrupted by Prince Aliu: "No, no, no, according to the situation, the dragon should have discovered the artifact. It is simply not possible for a greedy dragon to consciously hand over the artifact. Impossible, isn't your so-called 'active negotiation' a waste of time?" "
Please believe in Her Majesty the Queen, she must be looking for the most reasonable solution." Major Odegan replied seriously.
"I will be angry if you continue to use such pedantic official language to prevaricate me. I guess your queen will forgive me if you punish an envoy who is not very good at speaking." Prince Aliu suddenly reached out and patted the other party. Shoulder.
These words made Major Odegan feel a chill in his back.
"Haha, I'm just kidding." Prince Aliu laughed again, "I understand what you mean. You want me to help solve this matter. The people of the Empire are really good at calculating calculations." "No, we
... ..." Odegan tried to argue.
But Prince Aliu had obviously come to this conclusion and waved his hand: "Enough is enough, I don't like to argue over trivial matters. Considering that the dragon has obtained the Immortal Head, it is understandable that you will be more cautious. Yes. You go back and tell your Majesty the Queen that my goal is close at hand, only one step away. So I am very eager and hope to get what I want as soon as possible." "What do you mean?" Major Odegan tried
. Asking.
"Your country is famous for slaying dragons. It's just a dragon. Just kill him. I can provide troops or even go out personally. I hope the empire can cooperate with me as much as possible. I mean...as much as possible!" Prince Aliu raised his eyebrows. He raised a finger and said, "The attack on Red Moon City did not let me see the empire's top combat power. To be honest, I feel a little regretful." Major Odegan understood what Prince Aliu meant
. The empire must bring out its top dragon-slaying team to assist Prince Aliu in dealing with the evil dragon that has taken away the artifact.
And Prince Aliwu may plan to lead the troops on a personal expedition.
"However, His Royal Highness Prince Lucio is currently busy with various political affairs and may not be able to go on an expedition..." Major Odegan said cautiously.
"A production area in Red Moon City." Prince Aliu said suddenly.
Major Odegan raised his face in surprise.
"Go and tell your queen that I am willing to add such conditions in exchange for your assistance in slaying the dragon." Prince Aliu said.
"I understand, I will convey it." Upon hearing this, Major Odegan could only lower his head and salute.
With a prince-level vampire comparable to the legendary necromancer, and the empire's dragon-slaying hero, the legendary warrior Lucio, this dragon is probably going to be in bad luck.
