Chapter 220: Dragon Slayer

As the heavy metal gates slowly opened, Mezulash strode into the hall and knelt on one knee before the steps, saying in a low voice:

"The Boske Duchy has spent a fortune recruiting a legendary adventurer squad from the South—the Scarlet Blade. This squad is famous in the Empire of Fadlan with an extremely high task completion rate. They have killed thirteen giant dragons before, and even..."

Mezulash paused for a moment, cautiously looking up and seeing that Cassius's expression remained unchanged before continuing:

"Including an ancient red dragon."

"Oh?"

"It seems that old lion is making a big effort."

Cassius rubbed his chin as he spoke.

An ancient red dragon, a tremendously powerful and ferocious being, with a base challenge level of 20, was not an opponent to be underestimated, even for him. And any adventurer squad capable of slaying such a dragon was certainly no ordinary group.
