Emperor Dragon

Realizing that the Gray Rock Islands would fall under the rule of the dragon in front of them, and that the human principality would not be spared, the monks who had not yet realized their ideals surrendered decisively.

For monks, as long as they can build their ideal monastery, it doesn't matter whether they are loyal to humans or dragons.

"Very well, open your mind."

The monk hesitated for a moment, then let go of his mental defenses.

boom!

As if thousands of thunders fell, crushing the heart, the monk's eyes became blank, and the soul slave mark was burned into the monk's heart.

Immediately, the giant dragon lowered its eyes and glanced at the battlefield condescendingly.

boom!

The rolling dragon power burst out like a tsunami, blowing past the human legion that was fighting the monster legion.

Each and every elite warrior belonging to the human legion was struck by lightning. Even though many of them were professionals who had embarked on the extraordinary path, they were still inevitably greatly affected. Their hearts were shrouded by the terrifying and terrifying dragon figure, and their movements changed. They had to be stiff and slow. On the contrary, the monsters' morale greatly increased, and they roared and roared excitedly.

Under the ebb and flow of one another, the originally evenly matched human legions were defeated in the blink of an eye, and rivers of blood flowed from those killed.

"Give up resistance and succumb to my will! Bow down to me and praise my majesty - Emperor Dragon!"

The roar of the giant dragon penetrated into the soul, and the power of the dragon rolled in waves.

There were also a large number of remaining soldiers whose bodies were trembling and could no longer hold their weapons. They threw away their helmets and armor, gave up resistance, and murmured the title of Emperor Dragon in their mouths.

Some of the warriors had a strong will, or in other words, they were more successfully brainwashed by the authorities in the principality. Although they fell into fear due to the influence of Long Wei, they did not give up resistance and chose to defend the glory of the warriors with their lives, and were quickly killed. The monster army tore it apart, and the remains were thrown into the surging sea, dyeing the surface red.

After a while.

With the death of the last stubborn resister, this war that had not started for long came to an end.

The family members were cleaning up the mess, while the golden dragon hung high in the sky, staring calmly.

His huge body blocked the sunlight and cast large tracts of shadow, shrouding the monsters below.

Suddenly.

The sea surface rose and exploded.

A golden figure, accompanied by countless broken water droplets, broke out of the sea and shot straight into the sky.

A pair of golden wings, monster-like limbs, and a human-like face. This is the Griffin Knight in a combined state.

His body was stained with water, and he flew up into the air with his wings waving, shouting and roaring, and his eyes were covered with dense bloodshot eyes due to blood congestion.

Noticed this crazy griffon knight.

Saga's expression didn't change at all, he just glanced lightly.

This knight is almost dead and poses no threat.

Under Saga's calm and indifferent gaze, the Griffin Knight flapped his wings slower and slower, and the aura around him gradually became weaker. Finally, when he was less than a hundred meters away from Saga, his wings stopped completely. He waved, and then his body transformed into a knight and Jinling Griffin again in a burst of pale brilliance.

Different from its previous heyday, the knight has gray hair and his hard face is covered with ravine-like wrinkles. The Jinling Griffin is also dying of old age, and its breath of life is like a candle in the wind.

Plop!

The knight and the griffon fell into the ocean almost at the same time, and then their small figures were swallowed up by the noisy waves.

The golden dragon retracted its gaze, turned its head, and looked at the sky.

The corners of his mouth were raised, and a bright smile appeared on Long's face. Saga said calmly:

"Are you ready for my arrival?"

boom!

Invisible gravitational waves swept across, and many points in the sky experienced unnatural distortions and fluctuations, as if something was broken.

at the same time.

The big island in West Asia, the human principality, in the royal palace.

The senior officials of the principality who gathered together and paid attention to the war through peeping eyes, saw the scene in their field of vision ending with the dragon looking up and smiling.

They were silent and looked at each other. The scene fell into a deathly silence, and the atmosphere was almost solidified.

After a few minutes, someone finally spoke with difficulty:

"Everyone, the dragon is so threatening. How should we deal with it next?"

Without waiting for the nobles of these principalities to discuss, suddenly there was a huge commotion in the human principality.

call!

The floating clouds, flowing wind, and sunlight were all torn into pieces by a pair of golden wings. The golden dragon's wings were waving, as if a stream of light was approaching from a distance at high speed, silently, but without a sun-shading form. In the blink of an eye, it appeared in the Principality of Humanity. of airspace.

One after another, the rows of buildings were suddenly shrouded in inexplicable shadows.

Some people who were shopping, strolling, or working noticed the sudden extension of the shadow and subconsciously raised their heads.

Then, the sacred and majestic golden dragon came into view.

silence.

First there was deathly silence.

Just a few seconds later, someone screamed first, and then the commotion spread quickly like a plague. The principality, which had a small population and a small city, fell into panic.

"Dragon! It's a dragon!"

"Oh my God, it's a living dragon."

"What a majestic and beautiful beast."

"Gods above, please bless me."

"Why is there a dragon here?"

"."

Reactions varied.

There are dragons in the Gray Rock Islands.

The people of the human principality have always known this, but the vast majority of ordinary people have no chance to see dragons in their short lives.

Under normal circumstances, the senior powers of the principality would not allow a dragon to freely travel through their country's airspace.

Saga did not use Longwei.

But just the appearance of a real dragon is enough to scare many ordinary people and cause a country to riot.

A few minutes later.

The easternmost side of the large island in West Asia.

From top to bottom, a large number of magnificent buildings stand against the towering cliff slopes and close to the sea. At the highest point, the rows are far grander and simpler than other buildings. They are close to each other and have palaces with pointed tower tops. , is the core of power of the human principality - the royal family of Russ.

Wow!

The waves kept washing against the bottom of the other side of the cliff, and there was an endless sound of surging waves.

Normally, there are always many aristocratic ladies or young masters living in the Royal Palace of Russ, relying on the exquisite gilded windows, listening to the sound of the sea breeze and the rolling waves, and then looking at the vast and boundless sea and making some innocent sighs.

but now.

Almost all the creatures in the Royal Palace of Russ.

From the king who holds the power of the country, to the servants responsible for the cleanliness of the palace, and even the various pet animals raised by the nobles, the reactions are the same as their owners.

All of them were as silent as cicadas.

The dull but almost suffocating dragon power filled the air, shrouding this place and pervading everything.

At the same time, in the king's palace.

A large number of guards and nobles, including Russ Thirteen who was sitting on the throne, all showed frightened eyes, no longer as calm as before.

The source that frightened them and plunged the entire palace complex into deathly silence was now reflected in their field of vision.

On the exquisite carpet in the middle of the King's Palace, a golden giant beast is currently entrenched.

He has golden dragon scales that are layered and inlaid with textures like diamonds. The three pairs of majestic dragon horns on his head are particularly strange. There is a perfectly fitting crown in the middle. Some sunlight shines through the gold-plated windows and falls on the dragon's head. The body adds even more brilliance and majesty to it.

The dragon's eyes were calm.

Although he was in the middle of many spear-wielding guards, he seemed as calm and calm as if he were in his own dragon's nest, turning a deaf ear to the surrounding guards.

Because he was squatting on the ground in a comfortable posture, his height was almost the same as the king on the steps.

Saga was looking straight at Russ Thirteen.

However, it was obviously a straight-looking gesture, but to the king's perception, the other party seemed to be condescending, as if he were a real king scanning his ministers, while he was just an insignificant ant in the other's eyes.

Saga's eyes moved slightly, looking past the clearly frightened king who was sitting on the throne, and landed on the two figures behind the king.

One on the left and one on the right, the two sculpture-like guards remained silent, as if they were dead even under the might of the dragon.

"With a will as strong as steel, the only thought in his mind is to be loyal to the king, a high-ranking warrior who respects the king's orders."

How can a king who is not very powerful control a general who is stronger than himself?

In addition to the intangible influence of hereditary authority, the royal family also has its own heritage. For example, it has trained powerful warriors who are only loyal to the royal family and the king since childhood.

There were more than two high-ranking dead men guarding the king's back.

The royal guards and palace mages who surrounded Saga in groups were all on alert, and without exception, they were all elites, at least at the mid-level.

It's a pity that these are still just a mob in the eyes of today's Saga.

After shaking his head, causing the guards to become nervous for a while, Saga's eyes fell on the king again.

The king of this principality, Russ Thirteen, is a sixth-level warrior.

Although he is a warrior, he has never experienced a fight. Although the king is a bit old, his skin is smooth, his face is plump, and his palms are white, with no scars visible on them.

Such a half-assed sixth-level warrior could be killed by Saga when he was still a third-level hatchling, and it didn't take much effort, let alone now.

Face Saga directly, under the gaze of the real dragon, which is as solid as substance and majestic.

The king tried to remain calm and make his expression look majestic, but his trembling lips betrayed the fear deep in his heart.

After considering his words, the king tried his best to keep his voice from sounding shaky.

"Mighty dragon, I know why you came. As the losing party, I am willing to pay compensation in accordance with the war treaty formulated by the High Council."

The High Council does not just consist of members of the Empire.

This is a huge organization formed with many empires as the core, plus a large number of kingdoms, principalities, independent city-states and other forces united together. Its main responsibility is to mediate disputes between countries and there are many tedious matters. It is just the status of the empire. It is the highest inside, and its nature is somewhat similar to the United Nations in Saga's previous life.

The king's words of active weakness were not finished yet.

Saga looked sharply into the king's eyes, interrupted his words with a strong gesture, and said in a deep voice:

"In you, I saw weakness and incompetence, mediocrity and short-sightedness. I was originally thinking about why a small principality would do something that offended Long Wei. After seeing you, I understood the reason."

The king's breath was slightly suffocated, but he was submissive under the power of the dragon.

Saga's face was calm, and he slowly straightened up, causing a commotion among the surrounding guards.

A large number of guards pointed their weapons at the golden dragon, but no one dared to stab the opponent, even if the opponent was now relaxed and showed no signs of defense.

“I don’t like convoluted, suggestive dialogue.”

"Now, let me get this straight."

After a pause, the dragon looked down at the king with a stern look, and said calmly: "Come over, kneel in front of me, declare your allegiance to me, and become my vassal. I can forgive your disrespect and ignore your weakness. Incompetent, let you continue to be the king."

Saga himself has no interest in becoming emperor.

He asked his family to call him Your Majesty, and named himself Emperor Dragon, but he had no intention of becoming the emperor. This was just a symbol, representing the highest status.

If you really want to be an emperor and create an empire, you are asking for trouble.

Saga's goal is to attribute infinite power to himself, not to form cliques.

But Saga also needs a certain amount of power, which can satisfy his desire to drive other creatures and dominate, and can improve his quality of life. He doesn't need to do everything himself.

In this regard, the approach he chose was not to be the emperor, but to have an emperor-like existence to be loyal and surrender to him.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar around him.

A sixth-level guard captain couldn't help but roared:

"You are too arrogant! This is a country of humans!"

Bang!

The dragon's tail rose and fell, hitting the guard hard at a speed that exceeded the reaction of everyone present. As soon as the other party finished speaking, it turned into a pool of flesh and bone mixed together, and was squeezed by the twisted metal armor. of minced meat.

The ominous power came to his face.

An atmosphere of deathly silence once again enveloped the palace.

"All of your lives depend on my thoughts."

"If I wanted to, I could wipe your entire country from the face of the world."

The golden dragon's voice was calm, and he spoke calmly in a tone of narrating facts. However, under this calmness, there seemed to be a gathering storm.

"Choose, King."

There was no expression on Saga's faceplate, and his stern gaze once again enveloped the king.

The king looked at the two dead soldiers who were like sculptures out of the corner of his eye, then took a few deep breaths and showed hesitation in his eyes.

finally.

Because he did not want to give up the comfortable life of a king, he chose to give up the idea of ​​ordering high-ranking soldiers and guards to fight the dragon to the death.

His body trembled slightly as he stood up.

Under the gaze of many people, the king walked down the steps step by step.

"King! You shouldn't be like this!"

"Submit to a dragon, and the glory of the Rus royal family will cease to exist!"

Some nobles showed determination and shouted.

The king smiled bitterly and said: "The royal family of Rus itself will no longer exist, so what's the use of glory?"

"It shouldn't be like this, you shouldn't be like this."

The noble murmured in his mouth and slammed his head against the palace pillar. Then his body twitched and fell to the ground. He gradually lost his voice. The blood stained the solemn pillar red.

Throughout the whole process, Saga looked indifferent and unmoved, as if he was an outside audience.

"well."

Sighing, the king shook his head and continued down the stairs.

"We should live and die with the royal family, rather than live in an ignoble existence!"

"If the evil dragon dares to destroy the country, other countries in the parliament will not sit idly by and watch!"

"Instead of surrendering, it is better to drag it with you and bury it with you!"

Bang!

There were also nobles who couldn't bear to see the king being humiliated. They all tried to persuade him, even if they killed themselves, but the king no longer stopped for this.

He fell step by step, almost every step accompanied by the lives of royal nobles, until he came to the front of the dragon.

The king lowered his head and said:

"Mighty dragon, I am willing to dedicate my loyalty and obey your orders from now on. Please do not harm the people of our country. They will not pose a threat to you."

Before committing suicide, a nobleman said that if the dragon destroyed the country, it would be on the wanted list of many human countries, so that the king would not surrender.

But, how could the king not understand this?

He could choose to die rather than obey.

However, some of the surrounding nobles chose to remain silent and watch with cold eyes, and there were always some of their own bloodline relatives who were happy to be the emperor, to be the emperor under one dragon and above ten thousand people.

Although this principality is small, there are many battles and intrigues in it.

The king did not want to lose his current position.

glory?

Although weak and incompetent, the king knew deep down that his country had no glory to speak of. For the weak, this was an absolute luxury, and weak countries were no exception.

The dragon stretched out a sharp finger and touched the king's head.

"It is also a kind of courage to put down your dignity and become a servant. You made the right choice."

After a pause, Saga lowered his eyes and looked at the king, grinned and said, "You saved all the people on this island. If they know how to be grateful, they should thank you from the bottom of their hearts."

The king was slightly startled when he heard the dragon's words.

Deep down in my heart, my sense of guilt as a traitorous sinner suddenly diminished a lot.

Yes, I chose to surrender in order to save my people. I am a wise king! He thought so.

"Thank you even more for your kindness and mercy." The king whispered at the same time.

"Submit to me and fulfill my orders. As long as you don't let me down, no matter how weak and incompetent you are, this king's position will belong to you."

Saga said slowly.

He only needs the other party to be loyal to him and obey his orders.

As for other things, such as how other high-level nobles see themselves and how ordinary people in this country see themselves, Saga doesn't care.

Why would a real dragon care about what ants think?

He just needs to surrender, whether the other person is out of fear or loyalty.

At the same time, the king, who had realized who his biggest backer was, nodded heavily.

"I crawl under your dragon wings willingly," he said.

The dragon's hooked toes glowed with spiritual energy, and then effortlessly invaded the king's heart, planting a spiritual slave mark.

Not long after, the human people on the big island in West Asia saw the silhouette of the giant dragon flying away again.

The ordinary people of this small principality had no idea that their king had become a servant of the dragon. They just marveled at the majesty and power of the dragon.

As for the high-ranking nobles who understood the truth and knew that the master of this country had actually turned into a dragon, they divided up the territory and wealth of the nobles who committed suicide and continued their previous lives without much willingness to resist.

Of course, not all nobles who have not committed suicide are willing to live in the shadow of the dragon, and resistance is inevitable.

However, once such rebels are discovered, in order to maintain their dominance, the king will directly order their arrest personally and send them to the stake without even a trial.
