Chapter 766 Dragon Island Arrives

Although he was puzzled by the sudden appearance of the giant dragon, Avis was not ready to investigate it for the time being. Instead, he took Fiona to secretly contact Duke Carrot.

The Duke was overjoyed when he received the news from Avis and Fiona. However, considering the confidentiality issue, after a brief discussion, the Duke finally arranged for his clone to secretly take Avis and Fiona back to the family.

As for what Avis said about Pomona's suspected collusion with foreign enemies, Duke Carrot was half-believing and half-doubting. After all, it was Pomona who rescued him with the family guardian.

At the same time, he saw Pomona very clearly. He was proud, cold, stubborn, and occasionally unscrupulous in order to achieve his goals. But although his personal philosophy is relatively radical, he will never betray the Olivendi family for personal gain.

It is better to say that his loyalty to the family is the most radical one. If someone wants to make some transactions with him that harm the interests of the Olivendi family, the result will only be Pomona turning against him on the spot.

However, the Duke did not ignore the many doubts mentioned by Avis, but went to various places to check in person, and used time reversal spells to spy on the situation at that time.

Unfortunately, the enemy was obviously well prepared, and had specially blocked the time reversal spells when they were arranged.

In the end, the Duke, who had nothing to gain, could only tell Avis about the situation and told Avis not to worry too much. He would keep an eye on Pomona recently.

If the other party really had a problem, then he would definitely reveal his tracks.

But Pomona seemed to be worried that his previous behavior would be exposed. Although Fiona had returned to the family, he only visited her at the beginning, expressed his concern and left, and did not communicate much.

He behaved very normally in daily life, and even Avis could not find any problems.

So, Avis could only hide his worries in his heart.

With Duke Carrot and other ninth-level families, Fiona would not have any problems for the time being.

Besides, these things would eventually need to be faced by the girl herself. He now needs to prepare for the official breakthrough to the ninth-level prophet.

Gray Mist's breakthrough this time was blocked by the Stargazer's arrangement, resulting in the breakthrough process being artificially "slowed down", revealing many details, which was equivalent to a hand-in-hand demonstration of a standard breakthrough for many prophets who were preparing to break through.

Avis also benefited a lot. If he was only theoretically sure of breaking through to the ninth-level prophet before, now he can be sure. As long as the Stargazer does not stop him, he will definitely be able to break through.

Of course, it is impossible for the Stargazer not to stop him, and he will eventually try what obstacles the Stargazer has set for him.

Avis was initially worried that the Continental Magic Council would expose that he was the leader of the Circle of Truth, and that Bishop Yanile and Marquis Draka had been controlled by him.

For this reason, he has prepared to play dumb, and his clone has been prepared in advance, and he will throw it out when there is a ninth-level inspection.

However, after waiting for a long time, the Magic Council has always been silent, and there is no movement in the daily Magic Times. The Stargazer does not seem to let others expose his secrets.

This may be a gesture of goodwill from the Stargazer to him, or it may be that the Stargazer feels that there is little point in doing so, or the time is not right.

In short, everything was calm as if nothing had happened. Anvis returned to Pamir College in a very ordinary way, studying hard with his seniors and juniors, and making progress every day.

But after a few days like this, the situation in the empire changed again.

The scene that Anvis saw that day, three golden dragons broke through the cloud ridges and soared towards Frey Province, finally had a result.

The Aslaide family suddenly announced to the whole empire in a high-profile manner that the legendary [Dragon Island] has officially returned to the main material world, and has reached a deep strategic cooperation relationship with the Aslaide family. It will send several ninth-level dragons to temporarily attach to the Aslaide family.

All of a sudden, the power of the Aslaide family completely overwhelmed the other three families and became the head of the four major families in the empire.

At the same time, when the eldest prince almost completely suppressed the fourth princess in the civil war, an unexpected troublemaker appeared.

The seventh prince, Willer Luo Augustine, whose current strength is only the seventh level, suddenly sent a large number of ninth-level strongmen to sneak attack the eldest prince's army.

Under the deliberate plan, the eldest prince was caught off guard and suffered heavy losses. Not only was he seriously injured by the sneak attack, but two of his ninth-rank guests died directly.

Even if these ninth-ranks have their own backups and there is hope of resurrection in the distant future, it is impossible for them to participate in this battle for the throne.

As soon as the news came out, the whole world was shocked.

Everyone was curious about where the seventh prince got so many ninth-ranks. It was not until the next meeting of the House of Lords was held and the seventh prince walked into the meeting room half a body behind the head of the Aslaide family that all the truth came out.

You know, there are rules for the position of nobles walking, especially in such important occasions. As a lord, even if his own strength is low, he must not lag behind his followers, even if that follower is the ninth-rank limit.

And in the case of the seventh prince, many people saw at a glance that the seventh prince was actually just a puppet supported by the Aslaide family, and the real master was still the head of the Aslaide family.

This made many old nobles who knew the inside story frown secretly. The behavior of the Aslaide family had blatantly violated the agreement between the four major families and Emperor Gloria during the founding of the country: the four major families were not allowed to interfere in royal affairs.

Simply put, due to the return of Dragon Island, the Aslade family has drifted, and they do have the capital to drift.

Currently on Dragon Island, there are more than a dozen ancient dragons of various types whose strength has reached the limit of the ninth level, and there are dozens of dragons above the ninth level.

Even the three-headed Golden Dragon King could use some of the power left behind by the legendary ancient dragons in the history of Dragon Island to temporarily reach limit-breaking strength.

Such a terrifying force, even if only some of them want to go to the Yaer continent, cannot be competed by any single force except the three major forces on the mainland and the Sorcerous Council.

As a foreign force, under normal circumstances, if the dragons of Dragon Island wanted to intervene in the empire's civil war, they would only temporarily make everyone join forces to fight against the outside world. But with the identity of the Aslade family, the situation suddenly changed from external enemies to internal strife.

Because the Aslade family is originally a family with the blood of the golden dragon, and the dragon knight is Aslade's iconic profession. It is even 'rumored' to be connected to Dragon Island. Now this connection has only been confirmed.

At the same time, the Aslade family is also holding private talks with the other three major families to win their support.

As long as the three major families support the Aslade family's actions, in return, the Aslade family is willing to share the quota for signing contracts with ninth-level, seventh-level, and eighth-level dragons.
