I, The Dragon Overlord

Chapter 492 - Information About The Dragons

“Have you heard? At the border of the Eastern Coast, many dragons have appeared!”

In the era of limited information systems, inns and taverns were the best place to gather and transmit knowledge. Although the facts derived from them required personal vetting due to how inaccurate the word of mouth was, major events that happened locally would always be spread the fastest this way.

“So what if many dragons appeared? This is the Land of the Dragons. Even if dragons are not particularly common, they are still seen here more often than elsewhere. When you live here for a long time, you can even see dragons flying through the sky when you are lucky.”

“This is a rare opportunity. If you want to go to other countries to look for dragons, you will need to go to swamps, forests, deserts, and volcanoes to see one.”

Hearing the words spoken in a whisper by the person eating at the same table as him, another adventurer disdainfully said as he took a big sip of wine.

For adventurers living on a knife’s edge, the purpose of money was to exchange for wine, women, and weapons and equipment that would allow them to survive their next adventure.

“Bullshit! I’ve been in the Land of Dragons for how many years now, how could I not know the chances of seeing a dragon in this country? I even know where the dragons are coming from and going! They are going to the far east of the country, where the legendary sacred land of dragons, Dragon Island, is found. The dragons we see here are just out here to have a walk.”

“But this time, I’m not talking about these passing dragons. Have you seen the orders Her Majesty has issued? She has mobilized all the adventurers towards the eastern coast. The same place where the dragons appeared. That’s enough dragons to destroy this country easily.

The first person unconsciously raised his voice. Looking at his appearance, he was clearly a believer in the God of War, and those who believed in him had explosive tempers.

This man’s loud voice had attracted the attention of others in the tavern.

“You’re not lying, right? Dragons do not live in groups. At most, they would live as a couple or a family when their child is in its infancy. Generally speaking, it’s impossible for more than ten dragons to appear together. A hundred dragons appearing together just sounds too unbelievable,” a knowledgeable mage responded in doubt.

The majority of adventurers were people who loved to seek attention. Seeing so many people look over, the War God believer was even smugger, “Why would I bother lying to you? I saw all of these with my own eyes, and guess what else I saw? I saw a black dragon! I swear to the gods, that black dragon is more than a hundred meters long! You don’t know how scary it was. I almost pissed my pants watching from afar.”

“God of War Marzalis, please forgive me. It’s not that I’m timid, but that dragon is really just too scary.”

At the end of the sentence, the warrior prayed.

Seeing that this warrior actually swore in the name of his god, everyone finally believed his words.

The mage believer shook his head incredulously and muttered, “A dragon spanning more than a hundred meters? If what you’re saying is the truth, then that would definitely be an ancient dragon. Moreover, ancient dragons lived for a long time and are definitely as powerful as demigods! A demigod dragon is not something a normal demigod could handle.”

“To my knowledge, the only one that could exceed the dragon you are describing is the Dragon God that appeared in Central City more than twenty years ago. It’s said that the current Dragon God is a primordial dragon whose size reaches more than three hundred meters.”

Having a hundred dragons appear together and eye the country was not good news. Even the slightest carelessness could cause a cataclysmic event.

The Land of Dragons was located in a remote and sparsely populated area, so the economy and military strength were not that great. Moreover, because of the harsh environment, the surroundings were full of unexplored places. Many daring adventurers would come here to explore the deep unknown in order to find potential valuables to exchange for money.

Thus, the country could be described as an adventurer-based country, where the royal family collected taxes from these adventurers and then used the money to hire adventurers to protect the country or deal with some monsters that could threaten the safety of the nation. This created a unique economic environment.

Now that the country was facing the invasion of the dragons, these adventurers had become hesitant. Although they could earn a lot of money from this commission, their lives were also greatly at risk. In the face of a hundred dragons, the chances of victory for the country were slim.

Moreover, there was even a demigod among the dragons. On the main continent, there was simply no country that could defend against it unless the gods themselves made a move.

This was the most terrifying thing about dragons. If dragons weren’t lazy and loners, no country would be able to deal with the threat that they posed. The entire world would have to unite in order to face such terrible monsters.

“Isn’t this country called the Land of Dragons? Why is it being threatened by dragons? Could it be that the queen is no longer trusted by the dragons, so they have abandoned her?”

“How dare you slander Her Majesty! Her Majesty is gentle and good to the people! How could she lose her virtue!”

“The whole tavern erupted with noise once more. Noella, who was listening to the words of the people from the second floor, frowned and said, “The black dragon that that person is talking about is probably the Obsidian King. It is the only one who fits the description.”

Louie gently nodded and pondered for a moment, “Let’s go directly to the palace. Knowing that the Mythril King is planning to ascend is enough information for us. Let's go to the palace to confirm which god stands behind her. I think I have already given them enough time to prepare, so the god backing her would likely jump out.”
