"Kalixi, there's a situation!"
In the evening, the furnace that roasted the earth rolled below the horizon. The Centaurs crawled out of their sleeping bags, ate some dried meat with milk, and started digging again.
First, they had to clean up the ashes left behind by the burning of the ancient Dragon King's body. At first, it was nothing. Whether it was the demon's body or the cursed Dragon King of Valleglia, they were all charred black by the flames.
Even if there was the virus that Danny was worried about, it was most likely roasted to death by the high temperature.
After jumping into the pit, the Centaurs saw that it was no different from Zhuo Ge's cremation ruins. They were even bolder and directly used their hands to dig at the ashes.
After a while, a Centaur raised his arm that was covered in black soot. He held a palm-sized black metal plate with both hands and shouted to Danny, "Kalixi, I found a piece of metal. I guess it's a relic left behind by the Dragon King."
Chora took it and used sand to wash away the stains on it. He checked it carefully before handing it to Danny. "This is Valleglia steel. It has the dragon-shaped emblem and ancient Valleglia runes.
Our previous guess should be correct. This metal plate should be like an identity card, like the hand-shaped brooch of the Hand of the King. "
The prime minister of the Westeros kingdom was called the Hand of the King. The Hand of the King could design their own prime minister's emblem. It could be a brooch, a cloak pin, a necklace … but there would always be a small metal palm on the emblem.
The metal plate was slightly heavy in her hand, barely covering Danny's small hand. It reminded her of the 6.5-inch Huawei phone that she had just gotten. It was about the same thickness and weight, but only one-third of the surface area of the phone.
Valleglia steel was also a kind of steel. If it was brought to the laboratory for elemental analysis, it would be found to be no different from normal steel. However, during the forging process, it was added with the unique magic of the Valleglia civilization, making it almost indestructible.
Right, weapons forged from Valleglia steel also had powerful anti-magic effects, such as killing deviant ghosts.
Ignoring the thick material, the carvings on the iron plate were also very exquisite.
On the front was a Megalosaurus with wings that were about to take flight. The Megalosaurus' claws were holding a large sword that was shining with a cold light. It was very exquisite and very lifelike. One could feel the majesty of the Megalosaurus' face and distinguish the gemstones on the crossguard of the sword.
There was a circle of runes around the Megalosaurus. Danny could read the most authentic Valleglia language, but she could not understand any of the runes.
Danny also couldn't understand the other side of the iron plate. A mountain peak was carved on it, which was different from the rough technique on the front side.
Gently stroking the mountain pattern, he could clearly feel the convex and concave engravings.
There seemed to be wisps of smoke at the top of the mountain … The engraving was too rough. Danny was not sure if it was black smoke or a big tree.
"If the pattern on the front is really the family emblem, the Megalosaurus is holding a sword. The Megalosaurus might be hinting at the Dragon King himself. Everyone, look carefully. There might be a Valleglia steel two-handed sword buried in the sand." Danny was very excited and encouraged the people in the pit.
It turned out that she was too optimistic.
The moon was high in the sky. The horse men dug through the sand nearby, four or five meters deep. Water seeped out, but they found nothing.
Chola shook his head and sighed. "In that situation, it was hard to escape from Valleglia. He didn't have time to go home and get the family sword. If the sword that Megalosaurus is holding is real, the weight and volume of the sword must not lose to Stark's family sword — Ice. "
Then the knight described Ice to Danny. Its body was wider than a palm, dark as black smoke, and it was a head taller than Danny when it stood up.
Danny was embarrassed. Although her body was only 14 years old, she was not short except for a little stunted, no chest and no butt. She knew without measuring that it must be about 1.6 meters.
It was a head taller than her 1.6 meters. Even if it was less than two meters, it should be more than 1.8 meters.
"It's so long. Even if he could carry it, it wouldn't be convenient to swing it, right?" She asked curiously.
"Eide Stark has to use that sword to chop off dozens of heads every year. After a few decades, he must be very skilled." Chola said with a tone full of resentment and mockery.
He almost became the experience points for the Healer Druid's greatsword skill.
In the end, Danny agreed with Chola's analysis. Under normal circumstances, the two-handed greatsword could not be carried around. The dead Dragon King did not have the chance to go back and get it.
Before midnight, Ma Min dug out more than 20 black dragon bones of different lengths from the sand. The longest was more than 10 meters, and the shortest was as high as Danny's waist.
Many of them had obvious signs of breaking, further proving that the Megalosaurus was seriously injured and could not fly, so it fell from the sky to the ground.
"Forget it, let's stop here. It's enough for the entire Karathian to have a dragon bone scimitar." Danny clapped her hands and stopped Ma Min in the pit.
"Your Highness, dragon bones can only be used to make sword hilts, not blades. Ordinary steel with dragon bones is a waste. In fact, other than Valleglia steel weapons, other steel weapons do not have to use dragon bones. "Chola reminded.
"You said dragon bones are very valuable." Danny said.
"They are very valuable. There are only so many dragon bones in the world. But you don't need money, do you? "
"Who would complain about having too much money?" Danny waved her hand casually.
Before she left, Dani asked her men to bury the dragon bones and pile them up into a small hill.
This was her treasure, and she could not let others have it.
As long as the original dragon bones showed traces, even a fool would know that she had found a dragon corpse in the Red Wasteland.
Now that she had buried it, even she was not sure if she could find it next time.
In fact, there were too many similar low hills in this plain, and there were no special markers nearby. Piling stones and rubbing wooden poles could only be effective for a short period of time. After a long time, they would be buried and blown down by the wind and sand.
"Big Black, do you remember?" She asked her black dragon.
The black dragon did have some intelligence, but compared to humans, it was too brainless — the kind that was really brainless, the kind that was underdeveloped.
However, the dragon's sense of direction was particularly strong. It often entered the dragon's dream, the dragon's spirit, and merged with the black dragon's soul. Danny could clearly feel that the dragon not only had the five senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch, but also more than six senses and seven senses.
Uh, her dragon did not understand the small universe.
Just as birds could use the earth's magnetic field to determine their direction, dragons had similar means.
For example, Dani once tried to leave the dragons in White Cloud City. Then, she rode her little silver horse in a random direction for a few kilometers and finally found a bush to hide in. In the end, the three dragons were able to accurately find her.
At that time, she deliberately cut off the dragon's dream state.
Danny could receive the seven senses and eight senses from the black dragon, but she did not know what they were, and could not analyze and use them.
After asking several times and leaving a distance of two kilometers, she let Big Black fly back and try again. Danny was sweating all over, and finally reluctantly confirmed that he might have really remembered.
"Hey, Sir Jorah, did the Targaryen of more than a hundred years ago have the means to help dragons increase their intelligence? My dragon is too stupid. " In the early morning, on the way back, Danny complained to him. "It's okay if it's stupid, as long as it obediently listens to me, it's fine.
But dragons are naturally unruly. The black dragon is okay, but even I can't control the green dragon and the white dragon. It's too difficult to communicate. "
"I don't know. Bear Island is too far from the center of power. I'm not familiar with the dignitaries other than Stark. "The big bear shook his head.
"You're the official son-in-law of the Haithar family, and the Haithar family controls the City of Knowledge," Danny reminded him.
In any case, Jorah Mormont had been a guest of the Haithar family for a few years. He should have been to the City of Knowledge a few times, and at least met a few knowledgeable doctors in the City of Knowledge.
Well, there were also grades for a bachelor. Apprentice, Bachelor, Doctor, and Grand Scholar. The bachelor's grade was judged according to the depth and breadth of knowledge they grasped.
"At that time, I had no interest in the bachelor and the City of Knowledge at all. In fact, I have no interest in them now."
They did not encounter any accidents along the way. Two days later, they returned to White Cloud City with the dragon bones.
In the days that followed, Danny carried the dragons out of the city to exercise in the morning and evening when it was cool. In the morning and afternoon when the sun was hot, she began to give the three dragons cultural lessons.
Their bodies grew bigger and bigger, from a thin "cat" to a big "Pekingese", and now there was a trend of becoming a "mongrel."
The bigger their bodies, the more food they ate every day. The sand lizards, scorpions, and sand snakes on the Red Sand Plain could no longer satisfy them.
So, Danny used food to tempt them to learn.
The process was very difficult.
In the math class, she demonstrated elementary school math to the black dragon in the dragon dream state. In the language class, she opened her mouth wide and made sounds while telling it the meaning in the soul connection state.
There was also physical education. Dani used a wooden stick to hit their scales. In the beginning, the scales of the baby dragons cracked like hard eggshells. White smoke seeped out of the dragon's skin, and before the blood dripped down, it was burned to ashes.
Because the black dragon was connected to her soul, she kept comforting and encouraging the little dragon in the spirit sea. Although the black dragon roared angrily, it could still cooperate with her.
The white dragon and the green dragon were not so obedient.
A month after they were born, Danny completely lost the dragon spirit connection with Little White and Little Green. The closer she was to the black dragon, the greater the estrangement between her and the other two dragons.
Not only could she not attend the language class and math class, but the physical education class that trained her body … Once, Danny hit Little White's back and made it bleed. The little guy did not care and sprayed a dragon flame on her wrist.
The temperature of the dragon flame was higher than the flame of burning firewood. For the first time, she was injured in the flame. The skin on her wrist had a circle of blisters the size of cockroaches. It was painful and itchy, and it took four to five days to recover.
The only consolation was that there was no scar.
Maybe she could really draw power from the flame, or maybe it was because of the increasingly close dragon spirit connection with the black dragon, her injuries recovered faster and more completely than ordinary people.
For example, the scar on her stomach.
In order not to let others find out about her plan, Danny did not let the maids help her bathe for the next half a month.
Well, she explained that water was scarce, and in the future, everyone would use fine sand to clean the dirt on their skin.
She also asked someone to prepare a sand bed covered with fine white sand.
Every night before going to bed, she would take off her clothes and rub it on the sand to clean off the dust on her skin. The oil and old skin were all burned away in the fire.
But half a month later, Danny began to live the life of a corrupt "slave owner".
She was surprised to find that the scar on her stomach became lighter and lighter, and finally disappeared completely. Her skin returned to its previous tender and smooth state.
It seemed that the high temperature promoted blood circulation, and in the fire, the cell activity was too high?
This was a scientific explanation.
A more magical explanation was that the dragon and fire had the magical power to restore the body.
Just like a year ago, the original Danny had just married Zhuo Ge. She was weak and was not used to the life on horseback. Every day, she was exhausted and her inner thighs were bloody.
In the end, in just one night, all her injuries disappeared, and her body was as strong as a native centaur girl.
