Chapter 24 - Chapter 24 Evacuation preparations

When Liu Qian brought the nine dragon egg fossils to the Jelena sisters, the two women immediately gathered around, they held their breath, carefully held those magnificent and exquisite dragon eggs and looked at them carefully, and couldn't put them down.

They had never seen dragon eggs in Tria, and they were all taken by the greedy blood wizard.

Liu Qian on the side looked at these dragon eggs and couldn't help but think in his heart.

Although he has obtained dragon eggs at present, it is only the first step, and how to hatch these dragon eggs is a difficult problem.

In the original work, Daenerys Targaryen hatched a dragon in Kao's crematorium, and it was the dead baby in the womb, the blood magic that worked together with the life of the horse king and the sacrifice of the shrine maiden to awaken the dragon in the stone, full of irreproducible coincidences.

The red-robed witch Melisandre also advised Stannis Baratheon: The true dragon awakens, and it needs to be guided by the king's blood.

But where is he going to gather these elements?

Secondly, even if he hatches the dragon, how can he control the dragon like the Dragon King of Valyria?

These dragon eggs are the product of the blood magic of the Valyrian wizard, Liu Qian is not the Valyrian Dragon King, and he is not sure if the system can allow him to tame Valyria's demon dragon.

He suppressed the confusion in his heart and said to the two women: "Let's leave first, wait for the dragon spirit guards to search Tria before asking them to come up and search the wizard tower carefully." "

They descended to the entrance to the base of the tower, where a group of dragon spirit guards were silently leading hundreds of blood-stained, panicked Tria survivors to gather on the steps below the tower, some of whom were cleaning up mountains of monster corpses and debris on the steps.

A dragon spirit guard with an exceptionally burly figure and armor covered with old knife marks took a step forward, saluted stiffly, and a flat voice sounded: "My lord, the search is complete, there are three hundred and seventeen survivors." "

Liu Qian's eyes swept over the remnants of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe, like startled birds, and turned to the sisters: "Tria has become a ruin and can no longer shelter anyone, we must take them away." "

Jelena shook her head slowly, and a heavy worry settled deep in her ice purple eyes: "My lord, in the past, there were Trians who tried to get out of this cursed ruin, but soon after leaving this land tainted by blood magic, their bodies began to fester, their flesh and blood peeled off like melted wax, and their vitality passed rapidly, and finally they died in unimaginable pain. "

The air seemed to freeze instantly, and the dead silence with the smell of blood was pressed down.

The curse of blood magic, its viciousness and stubbornness, far exceeded Liu Qian's imagination.

Jelena raised her hand and pointed firmly to the north, her eyes piercing the gray fog that seemed to see the distant shore: "There is another land on the other side of the sea of smoke, and there is also a stronghold established by the remnants of Valyria, called Oros." It is separated from the ruined main city of Valyria by a vast sea of smoke, and Bitlia is much safer, and it may be a place to stay. "

Liu Qian asked: "Is there a boat here?" "

Jelena nodded: "After the Doomsday Catastrophe, countless adventurers driven by greed broke into this cursed land and finally died here along with their dreams, and their ships ran aground in the harbor shallows not far to the north. "

Liu Qian was happy, he could turn into a dragon and take away the Jelena sisters, but there were so many dragon spirit guards, and there must be ships.

"Without further ado," Liu Qian's voice was decisive, with an unquestionable decision, "let the survivors act immediately, pack only the most necessary food, water and clothing, and assemble here in an hour!" "

Jelena nodded, turned around and walked quickly towards the group of panicked remnants, and began to give instructions in a clear and powerful voice.

At this time, another group of dragon spirit guards dragged back in a heavy wooden cart, which was piled with Valyrian weapons found from the battlefield and ruins - swords with crooked snakes, spears with blunt spearheads, rusty and even shattered armor.

Liu Qian stepped forward and looked through it carefully.

Soon, a trace of disappointment passed through his eyes. None of the weapons were engraved with the mysterious blood magic runes.

It seems that this precious artifact that can store and channel magic is by no means something that ordinary soldiers can possess, even at the peak of Valyria's glory, and its rarity is comparable to that of a dragon egg.

Jelena also came over, her eyes swept over the pile of broken copper and scrap metal, and her brows furrowed: "No." Thares' Valyrian steel sword was not among them. "

She vividly recalled the chaotic scene when the walls finally fell, "We fought bloody battles together at the crumbling gates, trying to stop the torrent of monsters, and he was soon overwhelmed by scales and claws several times his own, with no possibility of survival. "

However, neither the weapons brought back by the Dragon Spirit Guards from the mountains of corpses or the wreckage scattered in the streets and alleys of Tria were there any trace of Thales and his iconic sword.

This strange absence is like an undercurrent lurking under calm water.

"Is he still alive?" Liu Qian thought of the person he met when he first entered Tria, and his unruly appearance was fresh in his memory.

"I'm not sure," Jelena's voice was cold, with suppressed anger and deep contempt, "Thales is usually cunning and cowardly, and is extremely flattering to the Blood Wizard, maybe he saw that the city wall was about to break, and he had already found an opportunity to escape, and at the moment he was curled up in some dirty corner, watching our every move." "

She looked at Liu Qian with an inquiry, "My lord, please allow me to send another team of guards to thoroughly search the area where he may be hiding in the end." "

Liu Qian pondered for a moment and nodded.

He then added, with a final meaning: "Whatever the outcome, when this is over, we will set sail and leave Valyria completely." "

Jelena and Janice looked at each other, and they both saw complex emotions in each other's eyes - relief, confusion, and a hint of anticipation for the unknown.

The oath of the Flame Knights is like an invisible chain, which has firmly bound their lives and destiny to Liu Qian's chariot.

What's more, the lifting of the curse of blood magic is like removing heavy shackles, and the vast and unfamiliar world outside is a new life full of temptation for them.

Janice immediately took action, commanding the dragon spirit guards to transport the looted Valyrian steel weapons to the port in batches.

The rest of the guards, like tireless undead workers, once again poured into Triana's buried ancient study and dilapidated wizard tower for a final carpet loot.

Janice commanded the dragon spirit guards to work hard.

Strange glass candles, bundles of ghost grass with faint magical fluctuations, heavy texts written in Valyrian's higher runes with mottled covers, alchemical instruments and magic tools with ominous sheen, and even exquisite gold and silver vessels left over from Valyria, uncarved gemstone crystals, bags of ancient coins... Everything that contained value or could contain knowledge and wealth was methodically removed and piled up in the port waiting to be loaded.

Liu Qian also took the opportunity to absorb the magic of the ghost grass.

At the same time, he was also thinking secretly in his heart.

His mana limit has reached hundreds of thousands, and how to replenish his mana after leaving Valyria is a key issue.

It is unrealistic to absorb air magic, and the world is at a low point of magic at this time, and the magic content of the air is thin.

So he can only get magic by absorbing magic items.

Only those with blood magic runes in Valyria's weapons have enough mana for him to absorb, and ghost grass is the best choice.

It is precisely for this reason that he wants to leave with the ghost grass.

The ghost grass of the Wizard Tower has rhizomes that can be tried outside to grow this plant in the future.

Of course, he needs to think of other ways.

"I almost forgot about that thing!" Liu Qian suddenly opened his eyes and remembered the mysterious black stone at the bottom of the tower that made him feel extremely uneasy.
