Aurora flapped her wings, like a light butterfly, gradually lowering her height, and finally landed on the ground.
A giant dragon that is more than ten meters long from head to tail is already considered a giant in the eyes of mortals, but against the backdrop of the ancient golden dragon, this young golden dragon looks so slender and petite.
Cassius smiled and said: "Aurora, why are you so reckless."
Aurora quickly lowered her head, bent her forelimbs slightly, folded the wings behind her, and saluted respectfully to this mysterious and powerful compatriot. "Good day, Senior Titus, I'm really sorry for disturbing your conversation just now."
"It's okay, you don't have to be nervous, just say it slowly."
Cassius shook his head, and like any older golden dragon, he stroked his whiskers with his claws, making a gesture of elders.
"Aurora, according to what you said before, isn't it still decades before the next Golden Dragon Council? Why are you notifying me now?"
Aurora took out a golden badge from the gap in her scales and handed it over carefully.
"Senior Titus, the Golden Dragon Council has used this badge as a symbol of status since six hundred years ago. The current consul, Lord Crassus, sometimes sends messages through this medal."
Cassius took the medal. It seemed to be made of gold, with a lifelike golden dragon head carved on the surface. There were twenty-four whiskers around the mouth, twelve on the upper jaw and twelve on the lower jaw.
"This is the badge that the teacher applied for you personally, and it is also a symbol of your identity. The Golden Dragon Council is happy to accept a powerful ancient dragon."
Cassius looked at Aurora's claws and saw that there was also a medal in it, but the golden dragon's head only had eight whiskers, which looked a little immature.
Aurora continued: "This Golden Dragon Conference was temporarily proposed by Lord Crassus.
What you may not know is that after the destruction of Holy Fadlan, the situation in the continent of Fianso is particularly severe. The abyss, hell, five-color dragons, including evil gods like Gruumsh that you are fighting against, are all ready to move.
Lord Crassus believes that it is time for us golden dragons to fulfill our responsibilities, so he wants to convene golden dragons from all over the world to start a certain discussion. ”
Cassius stared at the badge in his claws and smiled wryly: "I didn't expect that a sinner like me would be admitted to the Golden Dragon Council."
"Senior Titus, how can you be a sinner?"
Aurora raised her head and said seriously: "You are now clearly the 'Dragon of Dawn' and 'Wings of Dawn' sung by the bards. You are the hero who killed Gruumsh's brutal family and resisted the orcs' southward invasion!"
"Even if you have some problems that cannot be disclosed, I believe that the seniors in the clan, those ancient dragons and ancient dragons can provide you with some help."
"Maybe let's go and take me to the Golden Dragon Council. After so many years, it's time to fulfill my missing part of the responsibility."
"Okay, Senior Titus, the teleportation spell is ready."
"Shua——"
Aurora took out the scroll, and ripples appeared in the space in front of them. A huge portal appeared in front of them, and two golden dragons, one large and one small, got in one after another.
Southeast of Fianso continent, Jacob Mountains.
This place is known as the "Roof of the Continent", with incredibly majestic mountains rising from the ground, reaching a height of 10,000 meters and stretching for more than a thousand miles.
The magnificent peaks are extremely steep, often covered with white snow, and are inaccessible to mortals. The venue for the Golden Dragon Meeting is located on one of the snowy peaks - Orlando Peak.
This peak is named after a third-generation ancestral dragon. It is said that Orlando died on this peak, wrapped the entire peak with dragon wings, and left his tibia. He is the bloodline source of most of the golden dragons in Fianthal.
Inside Orlando, there is an extremely huge and spacious cave, which is called the "Hall of Justice" by the dragons, and this is also the place where the Golden Dragon Council is held every hundred years.
At this moment, two more golden dragons were welcomed here.
Cassius emerged from the crack in space that was somewhat narrow for him, secretly noted the coordinates here, flapped his wings, and hovered in mid-air.
Aurora whispered: "This is it, Senior Titus, let me take you in."
Two golden dragons entered the cave one after another. They shuttled through the deep tunnel, and the magic torches on both sides were lit in turn.
Suddenly, it suddenly opened up in front of Cassius. Inside the mountain, there was an extremely spacious space with almost no edges. It was far more spectacular than he had imagined.
"Telaflalano Mansion Technique?"
Cassius marveled in his heart that even if the mountain was hollowed out, there would not be such a large space. This was almost a brand new demiplane.
It can only be said that they are worthy of being the Golden Dragon clan with the best spell-casting ability among the dragon clan. They can create a constant different-dimensional space just for holding a meeting.
At the top of this hall, there is a huge, yellowed tibia, which is fifty meters long and exudes an invisible pressure.
Even though its master had been dead for tens of thousands of years, a period long enough to turn a mortal empire into dust, Cassius could still feel the power of the dragon in his lifetime.
The ancestor dragon, this is definitely the remains of the real ancestor dragon. The tibia alone is longer than most giant dragons today. Its owner must be six to seven hundred meters, or even close to a thousand meters in size.
Even Cassius had a hard time imagining such a mammoth existence. The two-hundred-meter-long abyss dragon was already the biggest enemy he had ever encountered, and it left a deep impression on him.
Aurora also looked up at the huge tibia and explained solemnly: "This is the tibia of Orlando's ancestor"
"It is said that when he died, he wrapped the entire mountain peak with dragon wings to protect the creatures here from meteorites."
But soon, she scratched her head in embarrassment and said: "I almost forgot, you are an ancient golden dragon. Your knowledge should be far more profound than a young dragon like me."
Cassius shook his head and said softly: "It doesn't matter, I didn't grow up in this material plane."
Then, he looked down and saw that in the center of this space was a long stone table hundreds of meters long and 60 meters wide, with huge seats suitable for golden dragons to sit on both sides, and Different sizes.
The main seat at the end of the long table is the largest. It is also carved with exquisite dragon patterns. The dragon eyes are inlaid with crystal clear agate and gemstones, which makes it look quite luxurious.
On those seats, golden dragons of all sizes have appeared, most of them are adult dragons, and there are also some young dragons, mature dragons and old dragons, while most of the older golden dragons have not yet taken their seats.
The golden dragons observed the two dragons who had just entered the Hall of Justice with some curiosity, and some of the younger golden dragons began to whisper.
"Is this the ancient golden dragon from another plane?"
"He is the legendary 'Dragon of Dawn'?"
Aurora reminded in a low voice: "Your Excellency Titus, your seat is in the third row at the end of the long table. Only the respected Cologne can sit there. I'm afraid I can't continue to accompany you there."
< br>
"Okay." Cassius nodded lightly and strode over nonchalantly.
Right now, there are more than 80 golden dragons in the hall. He has never seen so many golden dragons gathered together in his life.
But Cassius was not panicked. His extraordinary charm made most golden dragons trust him from the bottom of their hearts, and even convinced them.
The "Incarnation Ancient Dragon" of the True Dragon Warlock is also a real change in the nature of magic. There is no need to worry about being seen through by the golden dragon who is good at casting spells.
Even if a well-informed ancient golden dragon saw through his disguise, he would only lose one clone, which was no big deal to him.
And if he can sneak into the Golden Dragon Council, he can get too much information, which is almost equivalent to mastering the movements of the entire good camp.
Cassius walked leisurely to his seat. The golden dragons along the way bowed their heads and greeted this strange senior.
And Cassius accepted it gladly, and experienced the addiction of being an elder.
"Good day, Lord Titus."
"You must be the Wings of Dawn, I have heard about it for a long time"
"Dear Dragon of the Dawn, your strength and kindness have long been spread throughout Fianso, making us extremely admired"
"Senior Titus, this is the first time we meet. I have admired you for a long time. Your deeds of killing the Gruumsh Favorite and guarding Avendeldan alone made my blood boil. My name is Angel, and I am from the Elliot family. The young golden dragon."
A young golden dragon with only six whiskers and a somewhat immature face came forward and bowed his head in salute, with an expression on his face full of excitement and admiration.
Cassius nodded to him, and an imperceptible surprise flashed across his pale golden pupils.
After turning his back to the young golden dragon, Cassius's mouth twitched slightly, thinking that he had been pretending to be someone for so long, and finally let him meet the real owner.
The strange emotion in his heart disappeared in an instant, and Cassius quickly sat down in the position that symbolized the status of the "Ancient Golden Dragon" with peace of mind. He closed his eyes and rested, quietly waiting for the remaining attendees to arrive.
Soon, the young and active golden dragons whispered and made noises again.
"Look, it's another ancient golden dragon!"
"The senior's scales seem to have runes carved on them, almost covering his whole body. They are very similar to those on Lord Titus."
Hearing these discussions, Cassius had already guessed who was coming.
He turned his head and saw the golden figure covered with mysterious runes. It was the elder of the Eternal Order Realm - the ancient golden dragon Beatrice.
Cassius nodded politely: "Long time no see, Ms. Beatrice."
Beatrice also smiled and responded: "Good day, Lord Titus, I knew when I ordered Aurora that you would not miss such a meeting with your jealous temper."
Cassius said: "Thank you very much for letting Aurora invite me."
Soon, under the gaze of Cassius, a powerful golden dragon who was famous in the material world took his seat one after another, distributed on both sides of the long table.
Taking this opportunity, Cassius also roughly figured out the number of golden dragons in the material world - more accurately, the number of golden dragons that are still active, because those old guys who have been sleeping all year round and are indifferent to worldly affairs are not included in the statistics.
The seats in the Hall of Justice were almost full. After Cassius eliminated his "fake ancient golden dragon", he counted them carefully.
There are a total of two ancient golden dragons, four ancient golden dragons, nine extremely old golden dragons, and fifteen old golden dragons in the hall - this is the high-end power of the golden dragon clan in the material world.
The more than 20 golden dragons in their prime and the more than 40 adult golden dragons are the mainstays of the clan and bear considerable responsibilities, while the rest are all young golden dragons that have not even grown their whiskers.
The only vacant seat now is the luxurious main seat at one end of the long table. According to the system of the Golden Dragon Council, the "Lord Crassus" mentioned by Aurora is likely to be an ancient golden dragon.
"As expected of the golden dragon who calls himself the 'Messenger of Justice', he is truly a powerful force." Cassius couldn't help but secretly smacked his lips.
As the natural leader among the metal dragons and the darling of Bahamut, the golden dragon clan is indeed powerful. There are so many golden dragons that can be summoned in an emergency, and there are many powerful ones among them.
If you include the ancient golden dragon that has not yet appeared, even if Cassius's true form comes in person, it will be difficult to defeat these glittering guys.
If the empire's current dragon-born legions were allowed to fight with them, they would probably be killed without any trace left behind.
"When——"
The dull bell rang, echoing in this enclosed space, shocking the hearts of all the golden dragons present.
Even those lively young golden dragons hurriedly sat upright and assumed a solemn posture under the instructions of their parents.
They knew that the current governor of the Golden Dragon Council, the ancient golden dragon who stood at the pinnacle of power in the material world - "Gilded Sage" Crassus, was about to arrive.
Cassius looked to the side of the Hall of Justice and saw the heavy stone door slowly opening, and a huge golden figure appeared in his eyes.
——It was an extremely mammoth golden dragon, nearly forty meters long, which obviously exceeded the upper limit of the golden dragon clan. The countless whiskers around his mouth were traces given to him by the long years.
The eyes of this ancient golden dragon are narrow and deep, and the pale golden pupils are like faded gold pools, full of vicissitudes of life.
The platinum crown on top of the head and the scepter with the milky white nebula and the polar star carved in its claws are symbols of the Archon exercising power on behalf of Bahamut and managing the Golden Dragon clan.
The Taikoo Golden Dragon walked with a relaxed pace and walked slowly to his position. Even if he did not deliberately release his pressure, he still gave people an aura of calmness and self-power.
"Good day, Lord Crassus."
The golden dragons greeted each other one after another, and even the proud ancient golden dragon lowered his head naturally.
Although Cassius also lowered his head, his eyes were slightly narrowed, secretly spying on the ancient golden dragon coming towards him, and carefully assessing the power level of the golden dragon archon.
This ancient golden dragon has a size that exceeds the upper limit of the race, and just looking at the dazzling and expensive magic equipment, you can see that this is a dragon with pursuits, and it is definitely not comparable to those white-plate dragons that can only sleep. .
【The Gilded Sage - Crassus】
Challenge level: 28(125000xp)
"The powerful old guy is really a good opponent. It would be great if I could have a fight with him."
There was a hint of excitement in Cassius's eyes. If he didn't have to maintain the solemn image of the ancient golden dragon, he would even want to lick his lips. (End of chapter)
