Chapter 521: Chapter 519: Riot on the Snowfield
“Father, there’s sothing abnormal about the snowfield.”
The Black Oil Dragon Ross flew back from the southern sky and landed on the Dragon Coiling Pillar for repairs.
And communicated with Lord Russell through a mind link: “During the patrol around the Thunderfla Territory, I found that the number of Snow Ghosts and Snow Demons far exceeds last year’s levels. Deep within the snowfield, there’s a pervasive aura that fills
with dread.”
“Dread?” Russell asked in surprise, “Elaborate, Ross.”
“I don’t understand; I can’t comprehend it. But this aura… it frightens , it disgusts , as if the sll of the snowfield was ten tis stronger!”
Ross replied.
To the bipedal flying dragons born in the lands of warmth, the snowfield was like a filthy garbage dump, no such dragon liked the scent of the snowfield. But this ti, the odor of this “garbage dump”, the snowfield, was tenfold more potent.
“Have you felt this before?” Russell frowned.
“No.”
“Let’s go, we’ll visit the snowfield. I want to experience this for myself to see if Shuang Da is up to his old tricks again!” Russell imdiately changed his clothes and left Cigar Castle, “Killing a Shuang Ge obviously didn’t deter Shuang Da!”
He thought perhaps Shuang Da had refined or tad the Snow Giants of the Shuang Ge and was starting to strut about anew.
Just as he reached the front door,
he saw a knight riding fast toward him, dismounting at the castle gate and kneeling on one knee: “Sir!”
“Oh, it’s Eddock, what’s the matter?” Russell inquired.
The man was one of his followers, the son of Lord Utreras, Great Knight Eddock. Russell had assigned him as the deputy director of the Sharp Knife Mountain Observatory—here, the role of the deputy director was sowhat similar to that of a “political commissar”.
In every unit and institution, Russell would appoint a follower knight as the “political commissar” to ensure his control over everything at all tis.
“It’s about Director Sullivan and his team; they’ve observed a certain ‘transit’ phenonon. According to their estimate, the ‘transit’ involves an unknown planet that has never appeared in the solar system before,” Eddock stamred.
He had no interest in astronomy, so he was still unclear about what a ‘transit’ was.
“Hmm?” Russell raised his eyebrows and waved his hand, “I understand. Stay in the castle and have so milk tea before you leave.”
“Thank you, Sir!” Eddock pounded his chest in salute before turning and entering the castle.
Russell stood at the gate and quietly closed his eyes.
The next mont, a purple thunder light rose from the bamboo forest to the west, instantly entering his forehead and forming the Mark of the Thunder Lord.
At the sa ti, a green Gang Wind rose from the oak forest to the east, gently blowing toward him, also entering his forehead and forming the Mark of the Storm Lord.
The two markings perfectly rged together, becoming the Mark of the Storm Thunder Lord.
“Roar!”
The Black Oil Dragon Ross descended from the sky, sweeping past the gate of Cigar Castle. Russell, with grace and flair, mounted the Black Oil Dragon as it took to the wind.
Then the Black Oil Dragon flapped its wings, and flashes of thunder and Gang Wind blossod around it, vanishing in a blink like a black sparkle.
Following the developnt of Thunder Boosting Technology, it was no accident that Russell invented Storm Turbulence Technique.
By harnessing the Power of the Storm controlled by Harpiers Hape to reduce air resistance and using the Power of Thunder controlled by Unicorn Polly to accelerate flight speed, the Black Oil Dragon Ross could effortlessly break the sound barrier.
Achieving supersonic flight.
It could be said that, with the enhancent of the two Pseudo-Dragons, Ross had beco the first bipedal flying dragon on the Dragon Sleep Continent capable of supersonic flight.
In the blink of an eye,
Ross had already flown from the Blackfla Plains’ Cigar Castle to the Sharp Knife Mountain in Glowing Valley, landing in the small plaza of the observatory.
“Lord Russell!” Sullivan and others, guarding the telescope, bowed as they saw Russell arrive.
“Is the planetary transit still ongoing?” Russell asked.
“Yes, Lord Russell, it’s still happening,” a student responded nervously.
Russell imdiately ca to the telescope and quickly observed the unique solar transit phenonon. He rapidly identified sothing unusual, “Is this astronomical telescope not calibrated properly? Why does the small black dot of the transit keep twinkling?”
“Lord Russell, that’s exactly what puzzled ,” replied Sullivan, standing beside him. “It’s not that the astronomical telescope is malfunctioning, it’s that the transiting planet itself is changing from dark to light, and furthermore, we have calculated its orbit and found that it has never appeared before!”
“What do you an?”
“Its orbit crosses the path of Dragon Sleep Continent in a long, narrow ellipse. If it had existed previously, it surely would have disturbed the orbit of our Dragon Sleep Continent. With its speed, it would disrupt our orbit at least three tis a year!”
After a pause, Sullivan shook his head, “But the orbit of Dragon Sleep Continent has been very stable, never disturbed.”
At that mont.
Russell suddenly noticed that the transiting planet in front of the sun suddenly started flickering rapidly, as if the video signal were being disrupted. Still, the sun in the background remained intact, undisturbed.
“This…” Russell hadn’t had ti to be surprised.
The planet in the viewfinder stabilized again and swiftly moved away from behind the sun, then vanished.
Leaving the astronomical telescope, Russell’s brows were furrowed in contemplation.
He shared his discovery with Sullivan, “What do you make of this phenonon?”
“Lord Russell, this… requires further research,” Sullivan responded.
“You’ve calculated its orbit, right?”
“Yes.”
“So can we find it tonight?”
“It should be possible,” Sullivan nodded.
“Then find it, observe it, and figure out where it cos from!” Russell ordered sternly.
Then, without saying more, he climbed onto the Black Oil Dragon Ross and sped off, vanishing into the azure sky.
Flying toward the snowfield in the south.
“Polly, Hape, Ross, I have a strong feeling that this transiting planet might be related to the unrest in the snowfield!” Russell said in his mind.
Polly responded imdiately, “Do you think that the planet could be the world of the Frost Giants?”
“Precisely!” Russell confird gravely, “One of the reasons for building the observatory was to locate the planet of the Frost Giants. Now, the behavior of this transiting planet is too bizarre, and it just so happens that Ross ntioned there has been an uprising in the snowfield…”
Soon, they flew into the snowfield.
As Ross had described, the atmosphere over the snowfield had changed, although Russell only felt the change, not as deeply as Ross did.
However.
The Snow Ghost Legion racing across the snowfield left no doubt in Russell’s mind that this was another Snow Demon uprising.
“If it’s not the influence of the transiting planet, then Shuang Da is behind this mischief!” Russell raised his left hand, the Sword Butterfly Mark shimring. A teor Butterfly Sword appeared in his hand, radiating cold light.
A flash of divine light glinted in his eyes as Russell said in a cold voice, “Regardless of which it is, I’ll first quell the Snow Demons around my territory!”
Gathering Ice Soul Pearls and Ice Pellet Pearls was an opportunity not to be missed.
The Little Dream Dragon was already overfed, so now every Ice Pellet Pearl was a Gold Coin, each Ice Soul Pearl, a feat of valor.
“Relying solely on Cigar smoke money is like walking on a single leg. A Knight should go to the snowfield to reap leeks, to walk on both legs!” With his Knight Regint still forming, Russell decided to reap the leeks himself.
Crackle!
Thunder burst forth!
Whoosh whoosh!
A violent wind descended!
Russell, like a deity from the Nine Heavens, rcilessly harvested the running green Gold Coins and blue valor on the white expanse.
