Chapter 705: Chapter 705 – Dragon Invasion

Thousands of years after the founding of the Kalunu, scholars have examined the population growth of the kingdom. There was evidence that the Kobolds grew the fastest during the first hundred years of the Kalunu Kingdom.

This was because, during this period, the Kobolds had just left their primitive life in the wild and obtained sufficient resources to support a larger population.

The commercial economy had not yet reached a certain level, and education costs and other aspects were not too high. As a result, many Kobolds began to give birth in large numbers.

In this period, Kobolds generally had vigorous energy for giving birth because, at this time, giving birth to a child did not have to pay too high a cost. Instead, there were good benefits, for example, a labor force that could be used in just a few years or some official land.

In this period, because of the vast desert land, every adult Kobold could receive a certain amount of land from the official, used as the initial means of production to support their own lives.

Therefore, during this period, the fertility rate of each race was the highest, and the number of Kobolds was increasing at the fastest speed.

Every few years, the population of the entire Kalunu Kingdom would double, which showed how terrifying it was. This was also the period of great expansion of the Kalunu Kingdom.

Many new cities began to take shape during this period, standing in the endless desert. Ankadan City was one of them. This was the city where an incident broke out this time.

According to what Kalunu knew, this city had just been built in the past two years. There were close to a million Kobolds living in it, and the number was constantly increasing. It could be considered a typical new city in the Kalunu Kingdom.

However, a powerful monster recently descended from afar and arrived in this city. It had directly occupied this city, killed many Kobolds, and expelled and killed the officials within.

Only now did Kalunu receive the news. And the identity of the monster also made Kalunu frown.

“A giant dragon?”

In the spacious office, Kalunu looked at the scene before him and couldn’t help but feel a little surprised.

“That’s right.”

On the side, another well-dressed middle-aged man, who looked like a gentleman, said seriously, “Moreover, it’s an adult dragon.

“Around that city, to prevent possible dangers, we have arranged an army of a thousand people, and one of them is a Second Rank Dragon Warlock.

“In theory, even if it were a young dragon, it would be impossible to kill all these people.

“However, it had happened. The army with the Dragon Warlock was annihilated. There wasn’t even enough time for the news to spread.

“This is at least an adult dragon.”

The middle-aged man’s expression was solemn as he spoke. Kalunu lowered his head and fell into deep thought. All sorts of information were placed at the side.

From the analysis of the people around, they could see that the mysterious dragon was at least an adult dragon. And an adult dragon’s strength was at least at the Fourth Rank.

If the previous army encountered such an existence, it would be normal for the entire army to be wiped out.

“Your Majesty, let me make a trip.”

In front of him, Hechi took the initiative to open his mouth and speak. A savage smile appeared on his face. Coupled with his current appearance, it inexplicably appeared somewhat malevolent.

“A mere giant dragon dares to slaughter our people.

“I will make him pay a sufficient price.”

Hechi had a savage smile, and his eyes were filled with dense fury.

A giant dragon was terrifying to the original Kobolds. No matter how many Kobolds came, they would be ants in front of a giant dragon. They wouldn’t be able to fight against it at all.

The Dragon Warlocks and Dragon Warriors at the top of the Kobolds wouldn’t be able to fight back against a giant dragon. However, the world had already changed by now.

A mere dragon was nothing to the current Kalunu Kingdom. Not to mention Kalunu, who was at the top, and the strength of Direen, Hechi, and the others was above the Fourth Rank.

There was no lack of combat strength above the Fourth Rank within the Kobolds. Compared to the past, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.

This was the result of the plan back then. The Kobolds possessed a certain level of dragon blood. This was something that was born in Kobold’s body. Although it was thin, it exists.

This was a bloodline that originated from a giant dragon. It was extremely powerful.

A pure-blooded giant dragon’s bloodline, even if it were the lowest grade, would possess a powerful strength above the Fourth Rank when it reached adulthood.

Even if it weren’t a pure-blooded dragon, but a sub-dragon, based on the richness of its bloodline, it would most likely have all sorts of powerful powers.

For example, a sub-dragon like the red dragon, as long as it matured, it would be able to reach the Second Rank. Its strength could already be considered extremely powerful amongst the many mortal races.

From this, one could see how powerful the bloodline of the giant dragon was. It was enough to allow many people to turn over a new leaf.

The Kobolds also had dragon blood in its body. It had the dragon bloodline that had been inherited from the ancient dragons.

Of course, the dragon bloodline that they occupied was very small. It was far from being comparable to the pure-blooded dragons. It could only be said that it barely existed.

Among the many races that had dragon bloodlines, the Kobolds were the weakest among the many races of dragon bloodlines. But even so, it could not change the fact that the Kobolds had dragon bloodlines.

At that time, Kalunu had a sudden idea. The dragon bloodlines in a single Kobold were thin. But what if they gathered the dragon blood of many Kobolds and gathered it into one person?

Once this idea was born, it could not be stopped. Theoretically, once this idea was completed, it could even mass-produce Kobolds with extremely pure bloodlines comparable to pure-blooded dragons.

Of course, it could not be done to that extent in practical considerations. This was because the transformation of the bloodline would put a great test on oneself.

The bloodline was closely related to the soul. Once it was changed, many places would be affected, and the danger would be great.

Most Kobolds did not have the will to pass the test. No matter how much dragon bloodline essence was given to it, it would be a waste.

From the current situation, even an outstanding Kobold like Hechi would only be able to endure about one-third of the dragon blood. But even so, it was enough.

The improvement of the bloodline would bring about the improvement of one’s aptitude.

With a certain level of dragon blood, one could use one’s talent and aptitude to develop this power. Ultimately, one’s achievements might not be much worse than a pure-blooded dragon.

Hence, over the past few decades, many talents have emerged in the Kobold Kingdom. Many of the Kobolds who had been silent in the past had stood out and become unattainable powerhouses.

Hechi and the other elites of the Kobolds had also used this opportunity to climb to the top. Now, they had already reached the Fourth Rank and above. With Hechi’s current bloodline and strength, the enemy might not be able to defeat him if the enemy was just an ordinary pure-blooded dragon.

This was also why the Kalunu kingdom was so confident. But even so, Kalunu was still frowning.

“Pure-blooded dragons have always been rare. Why would they suddenly appear…”

Sitting on the spot, he pondered in his heart. At this moment, he was thinking about some deep connections in this matter.

In the World of Gods, the Giant Dragon Tribe had once flourished, leaving a deep mark in the history of the entire World of Gods. There was even more than one Dragon God among them, who had once been enemies with the gods and had appeared in many myths and epics.

However, in the past thousands of years, as the gods in the World of Gods fell into silence, the Giant Dragon Tribe also fell into silence and no longer appeared in the outside world.

According to Kalunu’s previous speculation, the World of Gods had fallen into silence, and the concentration of elemental particles was constantly decreasing.

Creatures that were born strong, like giant dragons, were usually high-level magical creatures.

Such creatures are demanding of the environment, and as the concentration of elements in much of the World of Gods, these places slowly become uninhabitable. So it would seem perfectly normal for them to disappear into the history of the World of Gods.

In the past, even if Kalunu explored the entire World of Gods, he rarely found traces of pure-blooded dragons. But now, there was suddenly one.

This made him think more.

“Is it because of the changes in the environment of the World of Gods that the pure-blooded dragons are about to return and gradually become active?”

This thought flashed through his mind as he guessed. But no matter what, the matter had to be dealt with. The Kobolds in a city couldn’t just ignore it, much less allow that foreign dragon to do whatever it wanted to the Kalunu Kingdom.

Thus, Kalunu quickly made arrangements. But to Hechi’s surprise, Karuna decided not to send anyone else but himself this time.

This was out of respect to avoid unexpected situations. Therefore, Kaluru decided to go to that area personally. Then, they set off to the city occupied by the giant dragon.

After arriving here, they realized the situation was much worse than they had imagined.

Previously, in the office, Kalunu already knew about the loss. But only when he truly came here could he understand the tragic situation.

Not far away, a city wall stood up. It seemed to be intact. However, there were corpses everywhere. At a glance, it was terrifying. Kobolds’corpses were everywhere. Bloody scenes could be seen everywhere.

Through his extraordinary spiritual senses, Kalunu could still hear the wailing sounds coming from afar. There was a mournful cry of a Kobold coming from a distant city.
