Chapter 121 The Legend of the Black Dragon
Chapter 121 The Legend of the Black Dragon
The world was huge, and what Ainz explored was just the tip of the iceberg. No one knew if there was such a powerful "imaginary enemy" on the other side of the world.
'It seems that we must develop power! '
The Six Great Gods, Eight Desire Kings, and other players who came to this world have not yet appeared.
Consider two points.
One is that they all died like the Eight Desire Kings.
Second, they were not on the continent where Ainz was, or they were hiding in the dark.
In this way, the possibility of third-party forces has to be considered.
Moreover, Nazarick came to a different world with Ainz, and there was no guarantee that other players would also bring the guild body with them.
In the game era, Nazarick made too many enemies, and even if he met a fellow player in a foreign country, he would not dare to call himself a "fellow townsman".
Maybe it is the enemy of the game era.
In other words, in addition to guarding against the True Dragon King, one must also guard against other players' "guild forces".
Based on Nazarick's characteristics of "easy to defend but difficult to attack", there is no problem in defense, but it seems to be somewhat insufficient in offense.
After the guardian left, Ainz didn't dare to be careless or take chances.
With the Sorcerous Kingdom as the starting point, it is the general trend to develop the local Nazarick forces.
And a strong man like Melo is his primary goal.
'Speaking of which, where has Melo been during this time? '
'It's not easy to find a trace of a person in the vast crowd'
dong dong dong-
"Lord Ainz."
"Huh? Come in."
Just as Ainz was thinking this, Albedo walked into the meeting room.
Carrying a huge stone brick, she walked to Ainz's side, leaned over and spoke softly.
"Lord Ainz, you found this thing on the stone wall of the abandoned capital of the Dwarf Kingdom."
She placed the stone bricks on the table, the surface was as smooth as a wall.
Ainz looked at the stone brick.
Rather than saying it is a stone brick, it is better to say that it is a kind of "text" used to record in ancient times, and there are some strange symbols engraved on it.
It's like text, but I can't read it.
He asked Albedo.
"this is?"
"According to the citizens of the dwarf country, this is not the language of the dwarves, but a stone brick they dug up when they were digging treasures all over the world."
"Dwarf country? Have you entered the dwarf country yet?"
"No, I'm following Ainz-sama's order. I just ordered the monsters to monitor every move of the dwarf kingdom and patrol around the mine veins. The dwarf mentioned just now was found in their abandoned capital."
"That's it"
Ainz hadn't figured out how to negotiate with the dwarves yet. If possible, he wanted to conquer them peacefully.
Albedo continued:
"Yes, Lord Ainz. This subordinate feels that this stone brick is well preserved. The materials used are not only precious and rare, but also materials that have never been seen before. They are incompatible with the surrounding buildings, and"
As she spoke, she stretched out her slender fingers and pointed to an image at the end of the stone brick——
"dragon?!"
At the bottom of the text, a huge dragon with outstretched wings is depicted, hovering in the air.
From the giant jaw, a flame-like thing spewed out downward.
And below, some villains are holding various weapons, such as bows and arrows, spears, swords, big swords and so on.
And among them, two "strange" long arrows the size of a dragon stabbed towards the dragon.
The whole painting describes the war between man and dragon.
Faintly, Ainz felt that this thing was not simple.
"Albedo, where is that dwarf?"
"It's already brought here, Ainz-sama."
Albedo smiled slightly, as if he had expected Ainz's reaction long ago.
She clapped her hands, indicating that the people outside could come in.

A dwarf walked in, was startled when he saw Ainz's appearance, and immediately fell to his knees.
"The great demon, His Majesty the Sorcerer King."
"Well, don't be nervous. Uh. Tell me your name."
"My name is Gond. Fayabiod. You can call me Gond."
The dwarf couldn't hide the tension in his expression.
After all, the person sitting opposite is an undead.
"Gon Dema? Then, can you tell me the origin of this stone brick and the meaning of the text recorded on it?"
"Okay, Your Majesty"
"Come here first."
"I see, Your Majesty."
After receiving the order, Gong De dared to get up from the ground.
He moved his feet and walked to the table.
Albede specially brought a stool for him to stand on, so that he could touch the stone bricks.
"Your Majesty, this is handed down from our ancestors. To be honest, only the ancestors can understand the words on it."
"You mean, is this lost?"
Gong De swallowed, straightened his breath, and then spoke slowly.
"No, in fact, our ancestors couldn't understand it either, because when we were young, we heard word of mouth from the old people that 200 years ago, one of our ancestors liked to travel around the world and discover treasures."
"At that time, passing through a ruined country, a refugee was found."
"It is said that he is the only survivor in that country."
"Afterwards, when the refugee returned to the Dwarf Kingdom with this slate for recording, he carved this text."
"Destroyed country."
Ainz muttered to himself, looked at Gong De again, and asked:
"Do you know where that country is?"
"I'm very sorry, I don't know either."
Gong De shook his head.
"When I was young, some old people said that the country was at the back of the world, on another continent, and some people said that the country was at the end of the world."
"yes."
Word of mouth, the authenticity of the words needs to be verified.
but
Ainz carefully looked at the "dragon" on the stone bricks. Is the fire-breathing point similar to the flames that fell from the sky that day?
The above content, perhaps, is an important piece of information!
"Go on, the more detailed the better, and I will give you a corresponding reward to ensure that you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life."
Ainz pointed to the writing on it, and asked:
"Have you ever heard your ancestors mention the text recorded on it?"
"Yes, yes, I know this. When I was young, I heard old people say that this is a ballad. I sang it when I was young, so I remember it very clearly."
"Song?"
"Yes."
Gong De cleared his throat.
He read the content of the ballad slowly in a flat tone.

When countless flying dragons are driving, the legend kicks off
Countless flesh is torn apart, bone blood is crushed and sucked dry, it will appear
Dust burns, steel melts, water evaporates
The wind is surging, the vegetation is barren, and the blazing rebirth
Its name is: Mirabreas
It's called: Destiny's War
It's called: Inevitable Death
If you have a throat, scream, if you have ears, listen, if you have a heart, pray
Mira Boreas, for whom heaven and earth are turned upside down, whose name resounds in the air
The world is overturned
its name
its name
