章 731: In the Name of Hydral - I

The Duke of Azuregold first sent his wife to visit Ansel because of the Dragon Calmaity in the West. 

At that time, it was merely a sign, just an excuse for the Grand Duke to try to establish a connection with Ansel. 

But now, that omen has become reality.

Ansel's change in expression just now was because Nine suddenly withdrew nearly 40% of his pure ether. She... had just encountered the invading dragons.

The territories of the Duke of Wyvern and Bloodust were closest to the Celestial Path Mountains, and Nine's "Adventurer Purge Plan" had started in Bloodust's territory. 

Even though they had only now appeared near the Celestial Path Mountains, the dragons, driven mad by the Dragon King's hunting desire, could ravage the entire Western Lands in no time. They might even... break through the West and attack various parts of the Empire.
