2271 Beginning of the war, its 14th ~ Northern Front ② ~

The dragons are scouts.

A hind leg developed into a body slightly larger than a horse. Maximum speed is inferior to horses, but there is no endurance that can run on two legs without resting for half a day, and no tracking ability that never misses a once-aimed item.

Originally, it was built as a dwelling place on the prairie, and it is also possible for humans to use it as a breeding ground when they are still alive. The tribe that used them violated the laws of the Great Prairie and was purged by the Phalanx. At that time, the escaped dragon flowed into the dragon's nest and became wild, forming a group (colony) of about 100.

It was the Dragon Clan that gained three-dimensional maneuvers that were not high in combat power, but not in the Great Prairie, and they even had the rare property of hunting while communicating. They even had the territory to survive in the Dragon's Nest.

Lydiel was able to follow them. The dragons clashed with Ridil, who first appeared in front of them, and hung their heads. Compared to all of the colony's forces, I realized that I had no choice but to obey.

Since the beginning of their journey from the Dragon's Nest, they have been acting as scouts in view of the intentions of Ridil, who became the Lord. The other dragons moved slowly and took longer to move. They also need food and water. Explore, capture, or raid where they are. Add that amount to the fresh meat and water.

In performing these roles, ego and intelligence gradually grew within them. We will divide roles like the army, and specialize even more in their nature. If we had had more time, we might have had that evolution.

Kea, kea!

"Ga, ga, ga"

The wind blowing into the wilderness was winding up the sand and narrowing the horizons. The signals of the dragons that are in regular contact with each other become frequent, and they are heard from another individual that runs away. Repeating them over a period of time can indicate that there is no abnormality. Although it was primitive as a means of conveying dragons without language, it began to be done regularly after becoming a scout. However, that shortcoming was not enough intelligence to understand that it was regular and unidirectional.

At the signal from the outside, the dragon near the center looked at the next door. The dragon next door saw us too, so it was time to turn the signal around. The two dragons raised their cries to make sure there was no abnormality, and each looked outward to turn the signal around. In front of him was a hunter with brown skin who poked out his spears in the crosswind of sand.

"Stop."

Ridil noticed the anomaly and stopped the dragon herd. Ridil is not a sensor. However, originally, the five senses, including hearing, had developed to an abnormal degree. Unless it was inhibited by sorcery, it was much sharper than the standard sensors.

And an excellent sixth sense. Originally, I was wary because my vision was not good, but the crying of the dragons that I could hear in the wind stopped. Did you find the prey or something went wrong? When I looked at the flying dragon swirling overhead, I saw one of them crash into the ground. Ridil pulls out his sword and prepares for battle.

"Watch out, enemy!"

The dragons didn't respond. But do you know that the Lord's vigilance has risen? He has formed a circular formation around him and has begun to intimidate his surroundings. In time, a huge shadow appeared next to Ridil.

Lord, are you an enemy?

"I still can't see her, but the dragon fell with an arrow." There's no doubt about it. "

"Shall we go?"

Dragons who understand human languages are big and strong. And the named dragon is the object of awe - two huge shadows that prove such a doctrine.

"Bronze Dragon Kadakel, Golden Dragon Quodos." Will you do it? "

"Of course, if it's the Lord's request."

I don't hate it.

Bronze Dragon Kadakel lifted his legs like a tree that had lasted a thousand years and began to move forward as he stepped on the ground. The Golden Dragon Quodos continued as well.

Other dragons cleared the way for the giant dragon that ran in parallel, and after a while he saw the dragons running at equal intervals.

"I've been hit."

"In the blink of an eye, you defeated him without even showing signs of battle." Sounds like some pretty good people. "

"Dragons are no different from lizards." It's annoying to be treated like a dragon. "

"I'll slap that hateful mouth again." That's why they hate you. "

"He who hates from the edge. The Dragon Palace, which was once worshipped by humans, says different things."

Bronze Dragon Kadakel's eyes narrowed and his nose became rough. The Golden Dragon Quodos continued with a sigh.

"I'm just saying that unnecessary confusion and struggle are troublesome." There's nothing I've done to make it work. "

"I haven't lived as long as Golden Dragon, so I'm still in high spirits." I'm sorry. "

"I think that temper is the most nostalgic for love." Just don't be alarmed. "

"You can't hurt a single body with a normal human weapon." Don't worry about it. "

The Bronze Dragon Kadakel quickened his legs a little overconfidently. The Bronze Dragon was not really composed of bronze, but was just covered with a dull, glowing blue scales, and its robustness was more than steel. Many mercenaries called Dragon Killers challenge him, but the crusade is not a good idea. The guild's request went up to S-Class, but 50 years had passed since Kadakel, who felt troublesome, pulled into the dragon's nest.

Golden Dragon Quodos lived with humans for more than 200 years, and was a dragon that cooperated with humans during the war. He had a calm temper that interacted amicably with other races, and as a subspecies of the earth dragon, he had a golden face in the sunlight, and because the humans who believed that the scales would be a thousand dollars and the humans who worshiped themselves became in dispute, he moved to the dragon's nest, reluctant to fight. It should be noted that the fighting power is sufficient to easily defeat one human army, and it is the strongest corner of the dragon race and a part of the dragon's nest.

The two of them advance side by side. They were the ones who thought it was such a luxurious reconnaissance. That's not to say that I'm guilty, but the slightly ahead Bronze Dragon Kadakel found a vague fort ahead of the dust.
