Who told him to rush up there?

Chapter 5 Young Dragon



Night fell, and everything was silent.

On the official road in the distance, a team of well-equipped soldiers led by four knights were marching at a constant speed.

The crisp sound of horse hooves hitting the ground and the dull footsteps of the army broke the silence of the night. The main general Eli Bruno and the deputy general Rondo, the personal guards Jessica and Cecilia rode on the horses, looking at the dark road in the distance. The four of them gathered together, and the deputy general Rondo explained the precautions on the battlefield to the other three along the way.

Although these things had been popularized for Eli in advance when he was about to become an adult, it was necessary to deepen the impression on him on the way to the battlefield.

Because it was a night march, the speed of the guards was not fast. While listening to the teachings of the elders, Eli kept looking ahead. With his current insight, he could sense that there was no danger within a hundred kilometers around him, so he could move forward boldly.

Originally, the guards didn't need to send out scouts when marching in the safe inland of the empire, but since it was inconvenient for Eli to expose his humanoid detector, the steady deputy general Londo still sent out several scout teams.

When the scouts returned from all directions, Deputy General Londo's "instructions" to the junior commander came to an end temporarily. It had been several hours since the guards set out, and the night was already very deep. Londo immediately ordered the guards to stop advancing and find a suitable place to camp nearby.

Although he was born into a noble family, Eli was not a spoiled nobleman. The marching tent like ordinary soldiers was his overnight place.

The only difference from the soldiers was that there were two delicate and armored beauties guarding outside his tent. Fortunately, they were guarding outside the commander's tent. If they followed the commander into the tent, it would be enviable... Bah, the commander was not that kind of person at all!

That night passed peacefully...

The next morning, Eli, who had gotten up early, was stretching his muscles. Not far away, outside another tent, Lieutenant General Rondo also came out to call the kitchen team to prepare breakfast.

After a simple breakfast, the guards set out again. Cecilia, who had been guarding outside the tent all night, was swaying on her horse, but she just didn't fall off. As for Jessica, who was guarding with her, she was full of energy and didn't look like she had stayed up all night.

For high-level strongmen, not sleeping for one or two nights is not a big deal, but for Cecilia, a member of the Huilong Church, staying up late is the biggest waste of life.

The marching speed in broad daylight is more than three times that at night. The fast-moving guards quickly crossed the city along the official road. Because they are elite soldiers, there are no warriors below the third level among the soldiers, so they can still bear it even if they are in such a hurry.

When the sun was high in the middle of the sky and the guards stopped to prepare lunch, Eli, who seemed to have done nothing along the way, suddenly stood up and walked out of the camp.

Jessica and Cecilia followed him immediately. When the deputy general Rondo saw Eli walking away and was about to call back the main general who had left the camp without permission, he saw Eli raising his fist high and then hitting the ground heavily.

There was a loud "boom" and the whole camp seemed to shake. When the smoke and dust were dispersed, a huge head emerged from the land where Eli had punched a big hole.

The huge dragon head had a ferocious face, and its strong body was as shiny as if it was made of steel. A pair of flesh wings shrunk behind its back and did not move. Its thick but short claws tightly grasped the ground. Its flexible tail swayed left and right, and from time to time it swung towards Eli, but was slapped away by Eli.

"Alyssa, why did you follow me secretly?"

Elai hadn't spoken yet, and Cecilia, who was staggering on the horse before, suddenly became energetic and flew towards the "dragon" that was more than ten heads taller than her with a look of surprise.

As objects raised together, Cecilia and the dragon Alyssa have a close relationship. Cecilia, who loves knight's gun, once invited Alyssa to be her mount, making her a glorious dragon knight.

But unfortunately, although they grew up together, some races are different as they grow up. Cecilia, who is 17 or 18 years old, is already a qualified Sailor Moon, but Alyssa, who has been hatched for 18 years, is still just a baby dragon.

Comparing the growth progress of dragons and humans, the 18-year-old baby dragon is not even as good as a three-year-old human child. This is the comparison after the peak human powerhouse breaks the shackles of life and forcibly increases the upper limit of the human life span.

"Ahhh!"

The young dragon, who caught Cecilia on its back with a happy and ferocious face, cheered three times, and then looked down at the short elder brother with a wronged and ferocious face.

"Uncle Rondo, arrange a few people to send Alyssa back. The battlefield is not a place for children to go."

Ignoring the aggrieved starry eyes of the young dragon, Eli, as the commander, directly issued an order. Unlike Jessica and Cecilia, the long life of the dragon makes them grow slowly. In his previous life, Eli did not wait until Alyssa grew up to be a dragon until his death. What kind of combat power can the young dragon have? Letting it follow him to the front line at this time is simply a idiom in the previous life, a lantern in the toilet...

"Ahhh!"

Hearing Eli's words, the young dragon rubbed the whole body of the elder brother with its huge dragon head. There was no way. Its size was considered a small Karami in the dragon clan, but facing humans, its head was equivalent to the size of several strong men. A casual rub would hit the whole body.

"Let Alyssa follow it. Just keep it in the city and don't let it leave the city."

Cecilia, who was lying on the back of the young dragon, helped it to plead for mercy. She was also reluctant to part with Alyssa, who was her good sister, good friend, good mount, good pet, and good daughter...

"That won't work either. Demon Hunting City is a frontline base. Even in the city it's not safe. If Alyssa was 180 years old, I would take her with me, but it's a pity that she's only 18 years old."

Although the 18-year-old young dragon has a combat power far higher than that of a third-level warrior, Eli does not lack an elite soldier. What he wants is a powerful helper who can accompany him on the battlefield and kill all around.

This kind of help, even the current Jessica and Cecilia can only barely meet the standard. A mere young dragon will only slow down his speed in killing demons.

"Okay..."

"Ah..."

Seeing that Eli did not back down, Cecilia was not the kind of person who would not hesitate to argue. She jumped off the dragon's back with a bit of disappointment and touched Alyssa's thick thigh, which earned her a thin dragon roar. Cecilia returned to Jessica, who had been watching quietly, and waved to the young dragon.
