Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 68 Seven Years
"It's just a rumor spread by underground creatures. What? Are you scared too? From the description, it's nothing more than an ancient black dragon that fell into the path of death. It's nothing serious."

Noah said dismissively.

In fact, this is not because Noah is arrogant as a golden dragon. Not to mention the metal dragon clan, even the color dragon clan will despise the ancient dragons who are obsessed with the way of the dead. Because once a dragon turns into a dead soul, it is automatically expelled from the dragon clan, and no dragon clan will regard it as the same kind.

The most easily corrupted among the dragons is the black dragon among the colored dragons. Because of their habits and bloodlines, this kind of dragon will frequently come into contact with negative energy.

Because of its extremely low status among the true dragon species, black dragons may fall into depravity and choose the path of undead at any age.

Even becoming an ancient dragon is no exception. Due to the low bloodline, even if a black dragon survives the thousand-year limit, it may not be able to be promoted to become a legend.

“But there can’t be only one ancient black dragon underground. There are more legends lurking in the dark.”

There was an indescribable solemnity on Taidel's face. No matter who it was, it would be difficult for them to feel at ease after knowing the enemy they would face.

"Are you worried that your father can't handle multiple legends?"

"Yup!"

"The Augustus family belongs to the United Kingdom of Erestoria. Have you forgotten?"

Jin Long asked slowly.

"The Kingdom will provide support, but this will take time. If those legends choose to launch a surprise attack..."

"How long has it been since you last visited your uncle?"

Noah asked abruptly.

"I met my father at my mother's birthday party half a month ago."

The young man thought for a moment and replied.

"No, I'm not talking about meeting in public, but privately. Have you ever looked for your father to ask him for advice on your training and combat skills?"

"..."

Taidel was silent for a long time before he spoke.
"Nothing bothers me."

"That won't do. Edith often asks uncle for advice. It won't be long before she can reach the pinnacle of her skills and become a Nine Swords Grandmaster."

Noah really couldn't stand it anymore. As a son, he didn't know his father well and had some completely unnecessary worries.

"That's a good thing."

"What about you? When will you be able to be promoted to Ultimate, and what Ultimate do you plan to be promoted to?"

Noah asked back.

"I am honing my skills and tempering my fighting spirit. No matter whether it is the ultimate skill or the ultimate fighting spirit, as long as I can be promoted, it will be fine."

The young man's eyes were restrained and his tone was firm, yet there was also a sense of casualness and laziness in it.

"You have a legendary father who you would rather ask for advice than messing around with yourself."

Jin Long shook his head and said, "Don't worry about the Underdark. Trust your father!"

"it is good."

The young man looked down at the unknown wild flowers at his feet for a long time, then slowly nodded.

"You're in your twenties, really, why are you making such a fuss?"

Noah complained as he watched the young man leave and head towards the large dragon nest in the mountains where flying dragons were trained and hatched.

However, if he put himself in Teddel's shoes, he could understand the little discomfort in Teddel's heart, because his adoptive parents really raised Edith as their own daughter, and all the treatment they gave her was only higher than that given to Teddel.

The two air knight orders proposed by Tidel and the other griffon knight order are now led by Edith. The two are husband and wife, but they also have a certain competitive relationship.

However, judging from the current situation, Tedel has already fallen into a disadvantage, and as time goes by, he will probably be at a complete disadvantage.

Because according to Noah's observation, the diligent and studious half-elf girl had more talent than Tagore, especially in swordsmanship, which could win Cassius' praise.

This is particularly remarkable, as Cassius had broken through the realm with his ultimate skills. In terms of skills, this legend was a true grandmaster of combat. Therefore, as his biological son, Teddel was not very willing to ask for advice.

It is a very uncomfortable feeling to see the skills that you have honed with so much effort and sweat being devalued and not recognized.

"Tsk, their parents aren't worried, why should I worry about it?"

Noah exhaled a stream of sparks and lay lazily down again.

After a few years, he became more and more lazy, because there was really not much he could do. The promotion of Noah's Book did not require any effort at all. He felt embarrassed to eat the two fruits of wisdom that came from it.

The only thing that made him feel a little troubled was that the difficulty of maturing the fourth golden wisdom fruit had been increased to a level that made him feel a little bit annoyed.

But for Noah at present, it is enough. He can read spell books below the seventh ring fluently, and there is no difficult problem that can make him think for a long time.

As for his subordinates, Noah didn't worry about them. After all, there was no point in worrying. Among the elves in the flower garden, two evolved into big elves in a few years. They were taken into the Dragon's Nest by him and made Siflei Adam's deputy.

As for the cloud giants, their numbers have grown rapidly in recent years. It's not that the existing giants have started to give birth crazily, but in the past few years, some cloud giants who got the news from somewhere have come here one after another, and they want to join Noah's adoptive father.

However, this legend refused to accept it at all. Not only did he refuse to accept it himself, he also forbade the Augustus family to accept the allegiance of any Cloud Giant. The only way for the Cloud Giant to stay was to sign a contract with the Golden Dragon.

Therefore, Noah lay in the dragon's nest without moving, and the number of cloud giants under his command doubled.

However, compared to the changes around Dragon Nest, the changes in the Augustus Family territory were the greatest. In nearly seven years, six cities with a total population of over 100,000 were built, and hundreds of towns and villages were built under their jurisdiction.

On the one hand, this was due to the fact that the Augustus family used its absolute power to implement relaxed tax laws, creating a favorable reproductive environment for the people in the territory. On the other hand, it was due to the influx of a large number of refugees from within the kingdom.

This is also the main reason why the couple Taidel and Edith patrol the border on a daily basis. They need to open up a safe and worry-free migration channel for these migrating refugees.

Thanks to the rapidly growing population, the pioneering knights under the Augustus family have also expanded from the original three to the current twelve.

These are all knight orders that can explore deep into the wilderness, and their members are supplemented by the many adventurers who came with the tide of refugees, as well as freelancers.

The reason why these extraordinary people are willing to join the Knights Templar is that the Augustus family is open to awarding titles. As long as they have made military achievements, even an unknown adventurer can become a fiefdom noble.
