The volcanic ash was extremely fast, covering the entire island in the blink of an eye.
The Dragons could only fly desperately upwards, because the heavy volcanic ash would rapidly advance along the ground, so as long as they flew high enough, they would not be affected.
From a distance, it could be seen that Night Fury was constantly leading Hiccup diagonally upwards.
If they flew directly vertically upwards, it would not only be laborious but also very easy to be overtaken by the volcanic ash.
Night Fury only looked back at the position of the volcanic ash, and immediately she widened her eyes in fright and flew forward desperately! Because the volcanic ash was less than ten meters away from her, and it was still constantly chasing!
Fortunately, Night Fury's speed was fast enough, and she passed through the mist in less than two minutes! The volcanic ash instantly covered the nearby sea.
However, Hiccup had no mood to appreciate such a scene and could only urge Night Fury, saying, "Faster!"
Flying at extreme speed made Night Fury subconsciously hang her tongue during flight, and her breathing also became noticeably heavier!
"Toothless! Just hold on a little longer! You'll get to eat roasted fish when we get back!"
While cheering on Night Fury, Hiccup was also tempting her with food, and at the same time, he couldn't help but think, "After we go back, I need to strengthen our flight training!"
When Night Fury heard about the roasted fish, she immediately retracted her tongue, took a deep breath, and then her speed increased by a few points!
After returning to Berk Island, Night Fury directly lay down on a rock, because she was simply too tired, so tired that she didn't even want to lift her eyelids!
Fortunately, everyone on Bok Island was busy, and no one noticed Night Fury's arrival at all, and even if they did see her, they wouldn't find it strange, let alone be curious about where they went!
Hiccup didn't make Night Fury move, directly brought over all the materials, and said to Night Fury, "Give me some fire!"
Night Fury glared at Hiccup, then reluctantly opened her mouth and spat out a blue-purple fireball!
The flames burned fiercely, and all the roasted fish were hung above the flames, the aroma instantly drifting far away.
Astrid brought the First Squad down next to Hiccup, then said teasingly, "I thought I hadn't seen the Captain for most of the day! What blueprints were you busy with again!"
"It turns out you're roasting fish? What? Is the Captain planning to eat it all by himself?"
Hiccup casually handed the Dragon Island map to Astrid and said, "Do you see this map! The red-marked areas! Those are the places where Dragon Knights need to participate in battle!"
"Immediately gather all Dragon Knights to discuss tactics!"
He said this not to change the subject, nor to avoid Astrid, but simply felt that Astrid might have had a misconception about him!
Thinking that he had feelings for her and was attracted by her charm! So Hiccup's answer was just to make her see reality: he was the Captain, and the team members must obey orders!
For irrelevant questions, it was impossible to answer!
Feeling Hiccup's indifference, Astrid didn't feel that anything was wrong; instead, she found Hiccup's appearance particularly charming, with a unique leadership charisma.
Astrid didn't bother to ask why he didn't just have Night Fury gather everyone! She simply happily rode her Dragon to gather all the Dragon Knights!
While Hiccup was roasting fish, he was still thinking, "If I leave Berk Island with all the Dragon Knights and warriors! What about that Golden-haired Siren!?"
"If the children on the island sneak in while the guards are away, and end up being charmed by the Siren, that would definitely be a big problem!"
Thinking of the North Sea Kraken's huge figure, Hiccup suddenly felt a bit tricky.
If he and the Dragon Riders were still on the island, as long as the North Sea Kraken dared to come ashore, whether by strategy or by force, they could directly put the North Sea Kraken on the grill!
"Roar~!"
All the Dragon Knights lined up neatly and came before Hiccup.
Hiccup remained seated cross-legged on the ground, roasting fish around the fire, and only stood up after the fish were cooked.
"Toothless! You can eat now!"
However, after Night Fury heard Hiccup's words, she closed her eyes and opened her mouth wide, as if waiting for him to feed her personally!
Hiccup was speechless for a moment and said, "Stand up and eat yourself!"
Night Fury wobbled to her feet, but then weakly lay back down.
All the Dragon Knights present were very curious: why was Night Fury, usually the strongest and fastest, so weak today?
Although they had questions in their hearts, they were currently in formation, and everyone had to maintain military posture; any questions had to be reported!
However, Night Fury's weak appearance really made them unable to suppress their curiosity!
"Report!"
"Report!"
Several people reported consecutively, waiting to be called upon by Hiccup.
Hiccup glanced at them, then said, "I know what you want to ask!"
"This morning! Night Fury and I went to the Dragon Nest and caused a little mischief! So Night Fury is exhausted!"
While speaking, Hiccup fed Night Fury roasted fish with a hint of heartache, and after eating the roasted fish, Night Fury looked at Hiccup proudly.
And the Dragon Knights in front of him, every single one of them couldn't help but exclaim.
However, they all deliberately held back the words on the tip of their tongues, because at this moment, it was not their time to speak!
But their eyes were filled with admiration and respect!
The Captain actually dared to break into the Dragon Nest alone, even though he said he only caused a little mischief!
But everyone believed that it would definitely not be as understated as Hiccup said! There must have been a fierce battle!
These Dragon Knights even began to imagine in their minds the scene of Hiccup riding Night Fury and fighting tens of thousands of Dragons!
Just thinking about that scene made their blood boil!
Every Dragon Knight even wanted to personally experience that feeling!
After taking care of Night Fury, Hiccup said to the Dragon Knights in front of him, "The day the warships set sail is the time to conquer the Dragon Nest!"
"Warriors! I want every one of you to seize the time to train! Make sure that after this battle, you can all come back alive!"
"Do you all understand!?"
All the Dragon Knights shouted in unison, "Understood!"
Looking at the longing for battle in their eyes, Hiccup nodded with satisfaction, and at the same time thought, "Only after stabilizing Dragon Island will the first step be completed!"
"Now it seems that everything is exceptionally well prepared, just waiting for the warships to be in place!"
But there are still many details that need to be discussed with his cheap father; after all, he can guarantee that the Dragon Knights will obey his orders, but he cannot guarantee what brainless actions those crazy Vikings will take!
