When Joshua walked out of the secret library with empty hands and asked Nostradamus to close the door, there was still a hint of seriousness on his face.

"What? This expression."

The old mage used the magic power in the atmosphere to close the door of the royal treasure house again, and reactivated the temporarily stopped magic circle. In the cold wind that once again filled the hall, he looked at the warrior's empty hands and asked curiously: "Has he not found what you want?"

Speaking of this, Nostradamus was a little puzzled. He frowned his white eyebrows: "Although blood potions may not be useful to you, each of the objects that host the soul has the potential to be a family heirloom. Just by putting them in the territory to use the amplitude of the magic array, they can subtly influence people in a region."

"Not to mention that there are many extremely precious breathing inheritances on the side. Their value is far more than a powerful enchanting weapon. It is the basis for making a force grow rapidly. Isrell is to see that your future legend is expected, so he will give you a chance."

I have all the breathing methods you have, and some of the breathing methods I have, but you don’t have some.

"I've got the most precious thing."

Shaking his head, Joshua stretched out his right hand under the crowd's onlooker, and both Brandon, Ying and Rin looked at the palm of the warrior curiously. Even Nostradamus could not help but look at this place.

And in the center of his palm, there was a light golden light ball with uncertain light and darkness, and countless figures appeared. In a vague way, you could hear the war cry that seemed to be shouting in unison and the echo of the long horn.

【The Souls of Fearless People】

[Passive effect: When holding this object, the friend will get the halo of courage.]

[After active use, you can quickly obtain a large amount of soul points, increasing the user's soul limit and will limit. You can also process it by someone with legendary soul-shaping spells in exchange for "undestructible crystal", "incomplete soul king Chaixin" or "runele·indestructible"]

[Just just as the cowards join forces with the cowards to keep warm, the brave themselves are also attracting other brave people. Countless souls that are staying in the remnants are willing to contribute part of their own to you and form this group of soul lights. Those who are still alive must not let down the expectations of the dead.]

【Please let us move forward together.】

Except for Rin and Nostradamus vaguely felt some of the functions of this thing, Brandon and Ying were both a little confused.

"This is... a high concentration of soul crystal?" The blonde swordsman scratched his head in confusion, and the same was true for the silver-haired girl. Ying frowned slightly and thought hard, but she didn't think there was anything precious about this thing.

But Lin could vaguely detect that there was immeasurable potential in this group of souls, especially for artificial souls like him and his sister, as long as you stay near this soul light, you can slowly strengthen your essence. Although Ying looks so delicate that she looks like a doll, her essence is actually a person as energetic as their master, and it is normal that she can't detect it.

The old mage saw the most thoroughly. He looked at Joshua with a surprised look and murmured to himself: "Can you actually gain so many souls' recognition?"

It is indeed the most precious thing. The souls in those Horcruxes separate part of their own and donate them to warriors, which is also a heavy burden for them. Under the most exquisite storage, it will take at least ten years to recover.

Nodding slightly, Joshua put it away. The passive effect of [Soul of Fearlessness] has many functions. Whether it is to make the warriors braver, get a fearless army, or cultivate mounts that are not afraid of charge, and form an extremely powerful knight order. Even if it is used actively, it can make his own strength stronger.

This is a precious thing that is far more precious than bloodline potion and breathing method. It is a treasure that he is willing to bear all the beliefs of his soul.

"Talk about the Knights..."

Joshua raised his head slightly, and looked at the north with red pupils: "I don't know how Hei is doing recently, I'm having fun in the volcano."

And in the Ilgna continent, Babel Province, the suburb plains near the capital.

The air was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and the rumbling sound of the magic energy furnace heart was circulating all over the world. With the mobilization of several armies, more than fifty armored vehicles holding large-caliber artillery came here urgently. Countless followers and infantrymen were urgently digging trenches, and their targets were terrifying creatures coming from the sky.

Stone Demon.

At the forest on the edge of the distant plain, the sound of giant objects moving, the sound of tree trunks breaking and rocks shattering is endless. This sound is like countless giant elephants running together, causing countless birds to scream and leave the nest among the bushes.

Not long after, under the nervous gaze of everyone, terrifying existences that were extremely huge, at least ten meters high, crossed the forest and came to everyone's sight.

They have gray rock-like bodies, and there are white light balls that are emitting light in their eyes. These monsters called stone demons are like enlarged creature statues, with obvious human or animal appearances, but their activities are extremely flexible, like normal creatures, without any stagnation caused by rock bodies.

After leaving the woods, they stopped in place, as if they were sensing, and after a while, they seemed to sense something. These huge stone giants or stone beasts took heavy steps and silently charged towards the direction where the capital of Babel Province was.

"Start the attack!"

After these huge monsters arrived within range, the federal army arranged in formation quickly launched an attack. With a command, countless alchemy artillery erupted, and the warheads hit the leading stone demon body. A violent explosion suddenly exploded and smashed one-third of its torso. The rest of the area was full of cracks and lost its ability to move.

But this was just a stone demon. With more than a dozen stone demons being knocked down, three times more stone monsters rushed out of the jungle. Among these stone demons that appeared later, a few were obviously stronger than those that appeared before. Their bodies were larger and their shells were harder. Several shells hit it, and there was no way to even see obvious traces.

"The steel and Mithril-level stone demons have appeared, and they have replaced armor-piercing bombs!"

After realizing this, many artillery armored vehicles loaders began to replace ammunition. Years of war made them know a lot about their enemies. Generally speaking, the weakest stone demon that can be killed with one shot is called rock level, and the shell has been strengthened and can withstand multiple shells is steel level. Above it, the one that ordinary shells cannot cause damage is Misilver level. Only special armor-piercing shells can penetrate the Misilver-level stone demon's shell and cause damage to its core.

At the beginning of the invasion of the Stone Demon, they were almost all rock-level existences, but at that time it was the rule of the last elves. Magic weapons using magic crystal stones had just appeared. Most people used too much magic and bows and arrows to fight, so the early stage of fighting with the Stone Demon was extremely difficult. Several cities were captured, and all the residents were massacred.

As the elves' technological progress, the strength of the stone demon became higher and higher. The Misilan-level stone demon first appeared seventy years ago, when the last elves dynasty was overthrown. At that time, its attack caused great damage to the emerging federation, and almost no one could stop it from acting. Finally, it was relying on bait to introduce it into the volcano to end the disaster.

It is rumored that there is also an exquisite gold-level stone demon above Mitsunian. Three years ago, the Cold Wind Valley Fortress almost fell because of the exquisite gold-level stone demon. However, because there is too little news, no one can confirm whether it exists.

This battle was originally a hard battle, and the federal army did not make sufficient preparations for war. Recently, frequent natural disasters in various places have made everyone run around. Whether it is heavy rain, blizzard, earthquake or huge waves on the coast, they all followed one after another. Sigma volcano next to the Babel Province also erupted not long ago. Army troops in various places are helping disasters. Even if they give their best, they can only gather a large legion in the Babel Province.

Fortunately, the original legion-level stone demon invaded, destroyed one-third by the attack of the volcano dragon, and was about to fall near the capital, one-third of the troublesome third, which immediately made the federal army feel at ease. With the continuous roar of artillery, waves of stone demons were destroyed one after another. Some of them rushed into the elves' positions, destroyed several armored vehicles, and killed many people, but they could not continue to expand the results of the battle. Instead, they were destroyed on the spot by other elves with rage and revenge.

There were endless explosions on the battlefield. Although there were not many stone demons, they later became more and more elite. In a wave of five mitrils-level stone demons appeared directly. This immediately made many soldiers present feel extremely pressured. Under the maintenance of these five mitrils-level stone demons, a large group of rock monsters ran towards a position with the most crowded population.

Even if the armor-piercing bombs hit, they could not kill the Misilian-level stone demons on the spot. Their charge was too fast and they could not avoid them at all. The elves soldiers in the position had already made up their minds to die, but just as the group of stone demons were about to rush into the position, a red light flashed, and a huge fireball appeared in the center of the leading Misilian-level stone demon. A huge explosion sounded, and a strong light burst into pieces, as if the sun was dimmed for a moment.

The Misilian-level stone demon in the fireball was naturally completely broken into countless debris and was destroyed on the spot.

In the sweeping hot wind, the elf soldiers looked back in shock, but they saw a majestic giant beast that was even larger and terrifying than the stone demons slowly walking out of the city. Every time it took a few steps, a golden red stream of light ejected from the core of its chest. As it continued to approach the position, one after another, a series of beams of light hit the powerful mitrils-level stone demons.

The endless explosion sounded, and the powerful shock wave lifted up the surface of the earth, splashing out countless dust. Even the armored vehicles seemed very small in the face of such impact. The earthquake trembled like an earthquake.

After the explosion, there was only a big pit left where the stone demon was originally located. The center of the pit was lava that was cooling rapidly. The remaining wreckage of the stone demons was blown away by the previous shock wave without any residue.

"Is the Volcano Dragon really ours?"

An elf soldier who was avoiding the explosion shock wave in the trenches whispered to his companion beside him, looking a little scared: "This power is really terrible... The Misilan-level stone demon was completely destroyed with one blow. We have to use a lot of armor-piercing bombs to do the same thing..."

But his companion shook his head: "If I were you, I wouldn't want this kind of thing. If the volcano dragon was not from our side, would you still be alive?"

The stone demon almost broke through the artillery position before. If it weren't for Longma's rescue, at least dozens or hundreds of people would have died, and several armored vehicles were destroyed. Give the fearful friend a little time to think about it, the soldier said in a helpless tone: "And, even if it is not, we can't do anything about it..."

Hearing this sentence, the soldier before suddenly fell into silence.

Indeed, no matter whether it is an enemy or a friend, the Federation has no choice but to do with the volcano dragon.

This battle ended quickly with the addition of Longma. The arrival of the stone demon did not form a large scale, nor did it form a group to charge together. Instead, it gave the federal army the opportunity to defeat each other.

In the evening, the reconnaissance troops confirmed that all the stone demons had been eliminated, and this sudden invasion had been declared over.

On the side, Hei Lazily lay lazily on the ground, as if he was resting. The previous battle with the stone demon was far from as hard as the first time he tried to destroy countless meteorites, but repeating the same thing again and again made it feel a little tired.

There were many soldiers and researchers watching on its side, but Longma didn't care. Whether in the main city of Moldavia or the Winter Fort Niceier, it was the focus of attention of citizens and students. It had long been used to the gaze of others. He was resting very peacefully, and even a light magic armored vehicle drove in front of it.

In the armored vehicle, an old elf with white hair walked out. Several elite soldiers stood beside him to protect him. The white haired elf had a badge on his chest, with the words "Supreme College of the Federation" written on it.

"Professor Nelson, this is the Volcano Dragon."

A leading elite soldier pointed at Hei's huge body and whispered to the elf old man: "It is resting now. Do you think you'll come over after a while?"

Because of the joint battle, many soldiers were not too alert to Hei, but there was still a trace of instinctive fear and were unwilling to live with him for a long time.

"... Even after seeing the pictures, it made me feel so shocked..." He shook his head slowly, and the old elf named Nelson narrowed his eyes and looked at the huge body of the dragon horse: "Sure enough, there are a lot of traces of dragons. The name of the Volcano Dragon is not an exaggeration to you. It is very gentle, and even interacted with a boy for a while?"

"Of course, we have detailed videos." The leader confirmed: "If you hadn't been in too haste, we could call out this video for you in the command room."

"It's okay, it's enough to know this...oh."

As he was speaking, the elf old man suddenly let out a light cry, and a cautious expression appeared on his wrinkled face: "It's awake."

And as he said, after Hei noticed that someone was talking in front of him, he opened his golden dragon eyes and stared at the elf old man in front of him and several soldiers who were facing a great enemy.

"roar……"

With a soft voice, Hei raised his slender neck and looked at the only elf who did not show his fear, namely Professor Nelson.

It looks very much like the old mage who often appears beside his master.

Hei thought of this, but there was a decisive difference between the two, that is, the old man in front of him was too weak, completely different from the extremely powerful old mage.

Just as Longma was pondering, Professor Nelson cleared his throat and began to use the ancient dragon language to the underworld: "Hello, a powerful creature..."

As a linguistics professor who is proficient in various languages ​​and even the various strange languages ​​in myths and legends, Nelson came this time and was responsible for communicating with this extremely powerful volcanic dragon. But halfway through, the old man found that the middle-aged man was confused with black eyes and did not seem to understand what it was saying.

Strange thing, dragons can’t speak dragons?

This immediately made Nelson a little embarrassed. He didn't know other languages, but if the Volcano Dragon couldn't even understand the Dragon Language, there wouldn't be much possibility for other languages ​​to understand.

However, in order to fulfill his responsibilities, the white-haired language master changed another language. This time it was the language used by the legendary fairy. It was extremely strange, and the tone was heard like singing. The ever-changing amplitude made Hei immediately feel energetic. He nodded happily at the rhythm, and his dragon claws in his hand were still slapped on the ground, creating a rhythmic beat.

This guy didn't understand at all, he just thought he was listening to music!

Professor Nelson had to interrupt the communication immediately. The volcanic dragon of Dharma Image was shocked. Not only did he know how to appreciate music, he was also quite accomplished in rhythm. At that moment, he actually felt that this fairy language seemed to be suitable for singing.

But after all, the task is important. Even though Hei showed a dissatisfaction due to the interruption of music, Nelson still changed his language and continued to try it. This time it was an external language used by elemental life. Judging from the sound alone, it seemed to be a meaningless roar.

For Hei, it is indeed meaningless, because it also roared, as if it was not willing to be outdone. Why did the white-haired elf have the loud voice of a dragon? This communication naturally came back in vain.

Nelson was extremely unwilling to give up. He refused the request of the soldiers beside him to go back and continued to stay where he used various languages ​​to try to communicate. Hei seemed to have regarded it as a game and played a harmonious game with the white-haired elf professor, feeling very happy.

This guy obviously often communicates with intelligent life. What language is available?!

After a period of time, Professor Nelson, who used various languages, including Stone Spirit Language (Dwarf Language), Giant Language, Halfling Language and various animal languages ​​(Classic Orc Language), finally felt exhausted. He couldn't help but wonder whether the other party was a smart life. But the facts proved that the volcano dragon is quite superb, and it is comparable to the elves. It can't help but know how to appreciate the quality of music, and can also accompany it with the dragon roar itself, which in a sense has considerable musical literacy.

"Try this at the end..." Although it felt unlikely, Professor Nelson had only one choice. For example, today he had already fallen into the night and had not had supper yet, and his body was almost unable to bear it: "In ancient legends, the language used by the people of the plains... Although it has nothing to do with the dragon, it seems that this is the only one that has not been used."

With the mentality of going home for breakfast after speaking and going home for breakfast, the slightly tired white-haired elf said in the name of the plain: "Can you understand?"

When he heard the familiar tone, he thought it was the game's black man, but he immediately turned his head and stared at Professor Nelson with his huge longan, as if he was waiting for the next sentence.

The reaction was very strong!

The old elf was greatly inspired. He recalled the words in the language of the people of the Plains and began to stutter the following words: "Hello, the powerful volcanic dragon, I am the representative of the Bay Federation elves..."

"roar!"

Hei shook his head when he heard this. It seriously spoke to the blinded elf professor with a sound of dragons of different lengths, as if he was talking.

"You...what are you talking?" Nelson wiped away the sweat from his head. He was now sure that the volcanic dragon could understand his words. It was a complete intelligent life, but he couldn't understand the other party's words. It was not a dragon's word, but a simple roar of a beast.

What is the situation?! The dragon does not speak dragon language, but can understand the language of the people of the plains. The communication method is yelling? What is it saying?

What else can you say?

Hei roared so many times, mainly to express two meanings.

One is "My name is Black, not the volcano dragon."

The other is "Dialects are difficult to understand. Please speak the standard common language, thank you."
