#264 - Section 264

"I think you must have recently become a Dragon Knight. I can roughly feel the aura of your dragon from you."

"Presumably, your dragon is only recently an adult? You should know that dragons have a second chance for evolution after adulthood, but this requires some expensive resources and secret methods."

"His Royal Highness the Duke can provide you with these. These are things that you absolutely cannot obtain anywhere else besides the Empire."

"Furthermore, with your talent, joining the Duke's faction, you might very well become a legendary powerhouse."

Harry's (Nodde's) words made Allen's heart stir slightly.

What stirred his heart was certainly not the legendary realm.

After all, he had already reached an incredible and terrifying realm.

He believed that his strength should not be weaker than the Empire's Duke.

And beside him, there was also an Ocean Singer who had just recently advanced to the legendary realm.

He didn't have too many thoughts about improving his strength for the time being.

What he valued was the methods and resources the Empire possessed that could continue to make dragons that had stopped growing stronger continue to grow stronger.

This was something he didn't know.

"Methods that can make dragons continue to grow stronger?"

Allen gently stroked his chin: "Marquis Harry, I think I need to consider it. After all, opportunities are often accompanied by dangers."

"Of course, that is your freedom. I will stay in the Duchy of Allen for a week."

Harry said with a smile: "If possible, I hope I can purchase a batch of magic potions from you."

Chapter 377 The Empire's Enemy? Harry's Shock!

Allen did not refuse Harry's request to purchase magic potions.

It was true that the final gift of the Mental Elixir was in a state of hunger marketing, but that also depended on the person.

Allen did not reject the idea of this well-meaning Imperial Marquis.

"Of course, I will prepare two thousand magic potions for you this afternoon."

Allen said with a light smile.

Although the sales model was hunger marketing, making magic potions was simply very easy.

The longer the time, the more advanced alchemists Allen had, and the easier it was to make magic potions.

"Then I am very grateful to you."

Harry bowed slightly to Allen.

Contact with Harry had only just begun. While Harry wanted to understand Allen, Allen also wanted to understand Harry and the Duke behind Harry.

From Harry's mouth, the information Allen obtained was roughly like this.

The continent was not truly peaceful.

Although the Empire enjoyed most of the continent's resources, it also faced some dangers.

The Empire's twelve Dukes were the powerhouses responsible for resolving and suppressing dangers for the Empire.

Because of this, the Empire granted the Dukes a lofty status and great power.

From this, it was not difficult for Allen to deduce that the dangers the Empire faced were definitely very terrifying.

And this meant that if Allen joined the Empire's faction, he would 100% face this danger.

In addition, Allen could also deduce one thing, and that was that the Empire had recently suffered great losses.

As for why he said this, it was because both Harry had said that the Duke's subordinates were currently in urgent need of manpower.

An empire, Allen felt, could not possibly lack powerhouses.

The Purgatory Duke, one of the twelve pillars of the Empire, just thinking about what kind of big figures they were, raising their arms would definitely be able to obtain the response of many powerhouses.

But listening to Harry's tone, it seemed that they were quite short of manpower recently.

This was not normal.

This situation was like a unit that had just experienced a major layoff, urgently needing fresh blood.

"A bit of a pitfall."

Allen was currently in the palace. Harry had already taken his students to move freely in the royal capital, while Allen had returned to his palace.

He had to carefully consider what the Marquis had said.

After all, this was related to his future development direction.

"But there are also benefits."

He stroked his chin. The center of the continent was definitely much better than the edge of the continent.

Moreover, Allen was very interested in the secret techniques and resources that Harry said could allow dragons to evolve and become stronger.

(cfbh) Currently, the strength of his mount, Saffy, could no longer keep up with his rhythm.

Since he used the level-up scroll, his strength had already surpassed the Saint Realm.

But Saffy was still in the Saint Realm.

For a Dragon Knight, this was a very obvious flaw.

Besides, what Allen was curious about was, what exactly was the danger that the Empire was facing?

Allen had some doubts. The Empire, located in the center of the continent, should not have any enemies, in theory.

From his birth until now, he had never heard of any wars breaking out between the four great empires.

This was strange.

If there were no wars between the empires, then Allen couldn't think of any enemies that the powerful empire would have that could make them feel dangerous.

"Should I agree or not? Speaking of which, even if I agree, I won't leave the Duchy of Allen. The resources of the Duchy of Allen have already surpassed the Kingdom of Norton under my efforts, and are approaching the Empire. Giving up now would be too regrettable."

Allen thought silently in his heart: "Maybe I should choose a win-win method."

"Good heavens!"

"This... what is this?!"

"Teacher, do you know what this is?!"

"Steel behemoth?!"

"Heard it's called a railcar!"

While Allen was pondering and considering, Harry had already taken his students to wander around the entire Allen royal capital.

However, they were soon shocked because they had arrived at the railcar station.

The traffic here was extremely large, with nobles and commoners from all over the Duchy of Allen coming and going in an endless stream.

The galloping railcar quickly approached from a distance, and then a dense crowd of people got off, and there were also railcars departing from the royal capital and heading to the distance.

This scene truly shocked Harry.

You must know that he had never seen this kind of transportation.

They had come by carriage, and had not seen the figure of a railcar along the way.

This was the first time they had seen the appearance of a railcar.

This made Harry very shocked.

This was obviously a means of transportation.

The speed was extremely fast, and the number of people it could accommodate was also extremely large.

Of course, what was shocking was not just this.

But Harry had seen rough images of this kind of transportation in some ancient notebooks.

Although there were only a few strokes, Harry was very sure that this was the transportation recorded in those notebooks.

Before coming to the Duchy of Allen, he didn't understand what this was or what its function was.

But after coming to the Duchy of Allen, he completely understood the power of the railcar.

"This is an ancient means of transportation, it's unbelievable that I actually saw something that even the Empire doesn't have in a small border country on the continent."

The calmness in Harry's eyes completely disappeared.

The next moment, his entire person directly flew into the sky.

A series of exclamations rose around.

"He flew up!"

"Good heavens, is that a magician?!"

"Teacher!"

Regardless of whether it was Harry's students or the surrounding commoners, or the nobles, they all turned their attention over.

Harry disregarded everything and directly rushed into the clouds. In the sky above, he discovered that railways built of steel extended from the Allen royal capital as the center, spreading in all directions.

The Allen royal capital was like a steel heart, and these rails were like blood vessels, constantly transporting the blood of the duchy.

This scene moved Harry.

"What a beautiful picture, what an amazing technology. If the Empire could possess this technology, whether it is war or daily life, it could bring great convenience."

Harry quickly understood the importance of the railcar.

The railcar was fast and had a large passenger capacity.

This was really too needed for the Empire.

The Empire's territory was vast and boundless, and it needed such a fast and convenient means of transportation.

Moreover, if this kind of transportation could be established in that place, the future war pattern should be much more stable.

Harry thought in his heart and immediately controlled his body to land on the ground.

"Teacher, what's wrong?"
