Laird Truth was pardoned, but the price was that he would serve the Fire Kingdom for the rest of his life and offer all the knowledge and information he had.
Liszt was not interested in understanding his knowledge of magic, but the information he had, especially when it came to the Noble Frost Empire, was worth exploring.
The time when the Noble Frost Empire was founded was no longer reliable. It was said that it originated from a kingdom two thousand years ago. Through marriage and other means, it united three neighboring kingdoms and formed the Noble Frost Federation Empire. In the next two thousand years, the royal families of the four kingdoms merged, and finally, only one royal family was left.
There were some differences between the royal family of an empire and a kingdom or a duchy.
The main difference was that the children of the emperor needed to be enfeoffed. Apart from the eldest son who would inherit the throne, the other children would be enfeoffed and change their surnames to start their own families. If the eldest son died, these children would have the chance to live in the palace and become the new emperor, but the chance was very rare.
Every generation of emperors received the best resources and were on the throne for a long time. They would often use the method of intergenerational inheritance to pass the throne to their grandchildren.
In case the grandson died, the son could step forward and continue to train the grandson.
The current Great Emperor had directly inherited the throne from his grandfather and already had a grandson, so the bloodline of the royal family would not be broken. Emperor Jupiter was a Dark Dragon Knight. His son was also a Dragon Knight, and his grandson was also a Dragon Knight.
"The royal family has a secret treasure. It's a tree related to the Emerald Dragon. It can bear Emerald Fruits. You should have seized that Emerald Fruit from Louis Shadow. It's because of the Emerald Fruit that every generation of royal family members can ride a dragon as long as their talent is not too bad. "
"Does the Noble Frost Empire have a lot of this Emerald Fruit?"
"I don't know. Even I can't pry into this secret. Right, there's a question I've always wanted to solve. You can ride so many dragons alone. Do you also have the Emerald Fruit?" Laird Truth stared at Liszt with bright eyes.
He was curious about all the information related to the legendary Emerald Dragon.
Liszt asked, "Why do you ask?"
"When Emperor Jupiter made a deal with me and asked me to assassinate you, he told me that a Knight can't ride a second dragon without external help. All three empires possess the Emerald Fruit, and with the help of the Emerald Fruit, the Twin Dragon Knight was born. "
This was an important piece of information. Obviously, the Emerald Dragon's corpse had been dismembered, and it had been scattered all over the Legendary continent, including the Malfa Continent.
A family that possessed the corpse of an emerald dragon would obviously be able to become a dragon-rearing family that would flourish for a long time. They would not lack enough dragons to make up for it, and only then could they grow into an empire. For example, the Flame Family founded by Liszt could develop normally for a few hundred years, and it would be the proper model for the rise of an empire.
Ryder added, "Unfortunately, the Holy Dragon has disappeared for thousands of years. None of the three great empires have been able to get their hands on one. You're the only one who has managed to ride an invisible dragon. After getting the news about the invisible dragon, Great Emperor Jupiter summoned me and said that he was determined to get the invisible dragon. "
"Shameless boasting." Liszt was alarmed, but he showed disdain on his face.
Ryder shook his head. "I don't know much about the secret forces of the Noble Frost Empire, but I know Great Emperor Jupiter very well. Once he wants something, he will pay any price … He won't give up on the invisible dragon in your hands. He will only continue to find opportunities to snatch it away."
"Then let him come. Even the joint assassination of a Magic Shooter and the King of Shadows couldn't hurt me. I don't believe that he has any other tricks up his sleeve!" Liszt's confidence came from a source. This assassination once again proved that the power of fate favored him, and that all conspiracies and schemes had nowhere to hide.
Next, Ryder talked about the strength of the Noble Frost Empire.
The Dragon Nest of the Noble Frost Empire raised 31 dragons, among which 22 were Dragon Knights. They were much more powerful than the average kingdom. Fortunately, most of the Dragon Knights of the Noble Frost Empire were used to fight against the Unfailing Light Empire. Otherwise, it would have been easy for them to annex the surrounding small countries, and they would have expanded eastward long ago.
Ryder then talked about the political structure of the Legendary continent.
The Unfailing Light Empire was recognized as the strongest country, followed by the Blue Dragon Empire, and finally the Noble Frost Empire. These three empires often fought, and the structure was similar to a tripartite confrontation. Following them were 11 kingdoms, countless duchies, and three major city-states.
The Free City-States, Lost City-States, and Mercenary City-States.
The city-states were small dragon-rearing families that existed in the form of mercenaries. They were mainly used to fight against the Noble Frost Empire, which was the only empire that liked to plunder small countries.
Due to the distance and the unexpected decline of the magic civilization, the expansion of the empire became more difficult. Otherwise, there would have been a talented and bold Dragon Knight who could unify the Legendary continent in the past few thousand years.
"So, what do you think about the destruction of the ancient Moon Empire?"
"I'm not sure, but according to my persistent excavation of ancient ruins for many years, I can deduce that during the golden age of the Moon Empire, there was suddenly a great catastrophe. From then on, the entire magic civilization collapsed overnight, and the Knight Knights developed in the ruins. "
"Have you heard of the Malfa Continent?"
"You know about the Malfa Continent too?" Ryder could not help but think highly of Liszt. "Yes, there is indeed a Malfa Continent that is similar to the Legendary continent. In ancient times, there were close contacts between the two continents. The mages of the Malfa Continent were unified, and it was called the Sun Empire. "
"What was the end of the Sun Empire?"
"It's hard to say, but my personal deduction is that the Sun Empire collapsed at the same time as the Moon Empire. There was also a civilization in the sea in the past. It was a civilization ruled by mermaids. In some of the ruins that I excavated, there were sea objects and sky ships. "
"Sky ships?" Liszt raised his eyebrows.
"Flying ships that traveled to and from the Devil's Sea. The humans of the Moon Empire and the Sun Empire did not like to take ordinary ships. They always flew in the sky, side by side with the dragons." Ryder was very emotional. To every mage, the magic civilization of the ancient times was an ideal country.
"How much do you know about dragons?"
"Of course, I have done a lot of research on these magical creatures. They are the embodiment of the limit of magic power, and they represent the embodiment of some kind of truth. As far as I know, there should be 36 types of gemstone dragons, 72 types of metal dragons, eight types of elemental dragons, five types of holy dragons, and three types of evil dragons … But I do not know the specific types. "
"You know about evil dragons?" Liszt's interest was piqued. "What do you know about them?"
Ryder was stunned. "So Your Majesty also knows about evil dragons … That can't be. This is a desolate countryside. Small kingdoms like Eagle, Steel Ridge, and Furnace Castle should not have any news about evil dragons … Yes, it must be Her Excellency Achilles who taught you. I did not expect her to be so knowledgeable at such a young age."
These words did not sound very pleasing to Liszt's ears. He was the one who taught A Qi, not the other way around!
He was the widely recognized scholar of the Fire Kingdom's Guild of Magic!
