"Sword Saintess, please seal away the evil dragon that cursed me!"
With the last vestiges of his reason, Liu Tianyu uttered his final words.
"Pfft!"
"Ok!"
"hiss!"
After finding the right opportunity, the dragon broke through the white tiger's defense in an instant. At that moment, a voice rang out, followed by the voices of a man and a woman.
The Sword Saintess's perfect and holy face turned slightly pale. The severe injuries she had suffered were almost unbearable, even for a hero like her.
The sound Liu Tianyu made made him feel as if his soul had been almost pulled out. The moment the dragon entered, Liu Tianyu felt his whole body become soft and warm.
In particular, the White Tiger launched a counterattack against the dragon, not to be outdone. A special warm current enveloped the dragon, seemingly intending to imprison it there.
The dragon, of course, was not to be outdone, and charged wildly at the white tiger.
"what……"
The Sword Saintess, who had been enduring all along, opened her pink lips and let out a groan. She seemed to feel the dragon's vitality as well. The sensation of the White Tiger flowed through her body, making her, who had always presented a holy and calm expression, appear somewhat dazed.
Seeing the Sword Saintess's expression, Liu Tianyu became even more frantic. He couldn't wait to see all sorts of alluring expressions appear on the Sword Saintess's perfect and holy face!
"Clap clap clap..."
Soon, the room was filled with suppressed moans, making Liu Tianyu's blood boil and his movements become even more energetic!
The author says:
Author's note: I don't know if this way of writing will work. If it doesn't and needs to be revised, then there's nothing I can do. I will try my best to update the extra chapters in the group!
Chapter Fifty-Eight: Black Dragon Drogon
[Ding! Underground sludge progress 100%, mission complete. Reward: 20 Swadian Knights, on their way!]
[Ding! Goblin Apocalypse, Goblin Nest Clearance 10/10, Mission Complete. Reward: 2000 Calradian Soldiers of random level, withdrawable!]
[Ding! Accompanying me, recruiting a hero: Sword Saintess, Marian Valnet. Quest complete. Reward of 10000 dinars has been sent to the host's inventory.]
[Ding, hidden quest: Merge with me, achieve 100% affinity with a hero. Target: Sword Saintess, 100% affinity. Quest complete. Reward: One guaranteed honor draw!]
Liu Tianyu didn't know how much time had passed before the sunlight streamed into the entire room, and he finally woke up.
As soon as I woke up, I felt like my brain was being bombarded by the system's mechanical voice.
"Don't you know that disturbing someone's sleep is very impolite?"
Liu Tianyu said something casually, and then focused his attention on the system.
Wow! They actually completed so many tasks at once?
When Liu Tianyu looked at the virtual screen projected by the system with his sleepy eyes, he almost jumped out of bed.
Looking at the rewards for completing the tasks, Liu Tianyu was filled with envy! With these rewards, who would dare say that Storm Territory was a poor, remote place!
But soon, Liu Tianyu realized that Storm Territory was a poor and remote place, where would it get the money to support so many soldiers?
Two thousand soldiers, even if most of them are low-ranking soldiers, they still need to ask him for money every week!
Even if he received a lot of system rewards in denars, he would probably spend them all in less than two months. And once there was no money to pay wages, the soldiers' morale would either keep declining or they would run away under the cover of night!
The system didn't give him a reward at all; it clearly gave him a hot potato! But he had no choice but to accept this hot potato, since it was the key to Storm Territory's leap forward.
If there are surplus soldiers, the host can create villages or cities and demobilize them.
The system seemed to have noticed Liu Tianyu's predicament and suddenly issued a mechanical voice reminder.
"Huh? Is this...is this okay?"
Liu Tianyu's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked.
[If you disband your soldiers in a village or city created by the host, the disbanded troops will not disappear directly, but will be converted into villagers and citizens.]
Villagers and citizens are your subjects, not part of the military. They will pay you taxes weekly, but will not ask you for money.
Please note that once soldiers are disbanded and converted into villagers or citizens, their levels and combat experience will gradually disappear over time, eventually turning them into actual villagers or citizens!
"In other words, if I demobilize a Nord Royal Guard from the military and turn him into a villager, and then recall him shortly afterward, he will still be a Nord Royal Guard."
If he's drafted again after some time, he'll become a veteran Nord soldier; but if he's never drafted, in the end, he'll truly become a peasant?
【correct answer】
Upon hearing Liu Tianyu's words, the system responded coldly.
"..."
Upon hearing the system's words, Liu Tianyu fell silent. This method had both advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage is that he doesn't have to worry about assembling a large army and spending money like water on their salaries.
The downside is that if too much time passes, the elite troops will turn into real peasants, and if you want to upgrade them, you will need to spend a lot of energy and denars.
"Sigh, now that we have a solution, let's wait until we get back and retrieve them all! By the way, system, what's with the guaranteed honor lottery?"
Liu Tianyu shook his head, deciding to stop worrying about the 2000-strong force and instead inquire about another reward.
[Honor Lottery: The host consumes one point of honor to draw from a vast sea of mods, and then draws a prize from that mod. The reward is completely random; it could be an item, a unit, or junk—purely up to the host's luck!]
The guaranteed reward lottery ensures that the host will definitely draw something valuable from the mod! This reward is only given upon completing hidden or special quests!
"Damn, what are we waiting for? Hurry up and draw a prize for me, and it would be best if you randomly selected me from the Modern Combat MOD and got me the Ivan the Great. Then I'll be invincible!"
Upon hearing the system's words, Liu Tianyu swallowed hard and immediately gave the order.
Upon hearing Liu Tianyu's words, the system didn't waste any words. Instead, it projected a large roulette wheel in front of him, displaying various MODs: 16th Century Northern Hemisphere, Faya Epic, Crimson Love, Water Margin Chaos, Calradia Modern Warfare...
The sheer number of mods was dazzling. Although the wheel was already large enough, Liu Tianyu's eyes still felt tired when the vast array of mods gathered on it.
"The Three Pure Ones, Jesus, Buddha, oh, I just had close contact with the Sword Saintess, so, Supreme God! Please show your power and lend me a hand!"
I'm not greedy, as long as it's a high-magic mod or a modern warfare mod, that's fine!
After the prayer was finished, Liu Tianyu said, "Begin."
"crash"
The pointer was spinning extremely fast, almost at supersonic speeds. If it weren't for the virtual projection above it, Liu Tianyu would have been worried that the pointer would jump out and poke him.
Before long, the pointer suddenly slowed down and began to move slowly.
"Faya's Epic is over, sigh! Chaotic Water Margin is over, wait, I remember there were immortals in it! Crimson Love is over too, hey!"
Watching the pointer move forward at a snail's pace, Liu Tianyu wished he could rush in and press the pointer onto the MOD he wanted!
"The concept of 'reality and illusion' may be dark, but it's incredibly powerful. Damn, I've gone too far again!"
Seeing the pointer moving forward at a snail's pace, Liu Tianyu was furious and decided to just close his eyes and wait for the system notification.
[Ding! Game of Thrones Kingdom MOD confirmed! Initiating the selection of valuable items from this MOD. Selection complete, a total of thirteen valuable items have been identified.]
[The guaranteed lottery continues! Congratulations, host, you have won the Black Dragon Drogon! It has been sent to your inventory and can be retrieved at any time!]
"what?!"
Liu Tianyu, who had already closed his eyes to listen to the results of the system's lottery, opened his eyes wide and jumped out of bed upon hearing the item drawn by the system, waking up the Sword Saintess who was still fast asleep.
Liu Tianyu immediately opened his inventory. In the last slot of the third column, a majestic and imposing dragon with scales as black as night lay quietly inside.
Its eyes are fiery red like burning flames, its limbs are strong as pillars, its claws are sharp as swords, its wings spread wide as if they cover the sky and the sun, and the bony spikes protruding from its back are densely packed, like sharp knives.
If you had to describe Liu Tianyu in one word, it would be either handsome or cool!
Tell me, which immature teenager doesn't dream of being a dragon knight? And now the system has made him a dragon knight in such a simple and straightforward way!
Although everyone is mocking the dragons in Game of Thrones for only breathing fire, not having magic, and having a history of being killed by mortals, they are basically just flying, fire-breathing giant lizards.
But don't say anything. If I actually let you ride it, then you can just say whether you'll ride it or not!
Liu Tianyu was so excited that he wanted to take out Zhuo Geng on the spot to experience what it was like to be a dragon knight flying through the air, when a gentle female voice instantly woke him from his dream.
"Has something good happened, Lord Tenyu?"
Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Wise Time After the Passion
"!!!"
Upon hearing the Sword Saintess's gentle voice, Liu Tianyu, who was almost in the throes of a maniac, was so frightened that his legs nearly went weak!
He quickly turned his head and saw that the gentle and holy Sword Maiden had now awakened from her passion.
Well, perhaps we can't call it holy anymore, after all...
Liu Tianyu slowly lowered his gaze, and on the pristine white bed sheet, a dazzling scarlet rose was blooming proudly!
Well, Liu Tianyu's mood is really like a rollercoaster right now!
What's exciting is that the Sword Maiden is truly a brand new, top-of-the-line 4090 card!
What's frightening is that the Sword Saintess is actually not the top-tier 4090 card that was mined for three days!
Well, there's really no difference between the two. After all, if the Sword Saintess really wanted to investigate, whether she was a new card or a mining card, Liu Tianyu would be doomed.
Rather, the fact that the Sword Saintess is brand new would make him feel extremely happy!
But this has always been a case of being a demon before masturbation and a saint afterward. Now that it's the end, it's time to think about how to face the Sword Saintess.
Marry her? Well, although the doctrine of the Supreme God Cult allows clergy to have marital relationships, it's not as far-fetched as a toad wanting to eat swan meat!
As for myself, I am just an ordinary viscount of the kingdom. There are definitely more than a hundred, if not hundreds, of viscounts in the entire kingdom!
And what about the Sword Saintess? The Archbishop of the Supreme Temple, within the entire Supreme God Church system, if she claims to be second, the only one who dares to say she is first is the Supreme God himself.
And another thing is that the Sword Saintess has no shortage of suitors! If the line of suitors were to form, it would completely block the entire Water City!
The kingdom's new king also coveted her! After all, he had been on the throne for several years without establishing a queen, and he had partnered with the Sword Saintess for several years as a gold-level adventurer. Anyone who wasn't blind knew what the new king was up to.
If it weren't for the Sword Saintess's formidable strength and the profound foundation of the Supreme God Cult, no one would know what the new king would do.
Therefore, marrying the Sword Saintess is out of the question. Damn it, if Drogon, that flying lizard, were to become a real dragon, he would dare to forcefully marry the Sword Saintess!
However, the dragons in Game of Thrones are essentially magical creatures, born from magic...
Is it possible that in the high-magic world of Tyrium, Drogon, the flying lizard, could evolve into a true dragon?
Although he had some doubts, the most urgent matter at hand was to consider the issue of the Sword Saintess.
Since you've already passed on the idea of marrying her, does that mean you intend to keep her as a mistress?
That means that if this choice is exposed, the Sword Saintess will definitely be fine, but Liu Tianyu will probably be waiting for the family tree to ascend to heaven!
The crime of blaspheming the Sword Saintess will be exposed immediately. Oh dear, he will be branded a heretic and thrown at the stake to be roasted. The entire Stormlands will also be burned to ashes to cover up this stain!
"You're thinking about our relationship, aren't you? Hehe, please don't worry!"
Just as Liu Tianyu was brainstorming so hard that his CPU was almost overclocking, the Sword Saintess smiled gently.
"Ok?"
Upon hearing the words of the Sword Saintess, Liu Tianyu quickly withdrew from his brainstorming session and turned to look at her, wanting to hear her insightful opinion.
After all, the biggest reason he made a mistake was because of her initiative. If she had resisted even the slightest bit, he would never have succeeded!
If she had resisted even slightly the moment I pounced on her, I probably would have turned into a puddle of tomato sauce.
"You don't need to be so nervous. Whether you want to treat me as a lover, pretend nothing happened, or use me as a outlet for your frustrations, I will accept it all!"
The Sword Saintess's voice remained gentle, but her words nearly caused Liu Tianyu's CPU to overheat.
No, sister! Do you know how shocking it would be if others heard what you said?
The archbishop who serves the supreme God is my lover, even my weapon. Do you want me to die sooner?
"Ahem, Your Excellency the Sword Saintess, please don't joke! I absolutely did not mean to blaspheme you, ah no, I mean, I absolutely did not have such filthy thoughts!"
Seeing the Sword Saintess's serious expression, Liu Tianyu knew that she was serious!
I must say, any normal man would absolutely be unable to refuse a stunning beauty like her, who scores 99 out of 100, who takes the initiative to throw herself into his arms and even offers to be his weapon.
Liu Tianyu couldn't refuse, but agreeing to this would be like putting a Damocles' sword over his head!
