Red Dragon Emperor

five months later.

Forsey Kingdom, Red Castle.

In the throne hall supported by huge pillars, the red dragon sits high on the throne, bathed in the beams of light from the dome, and the family members are divided into civil servants and military generals under the nine steps.

Jose glanced down, seeing that all the family members were full of energy, their spirits were flying high, and their strength had not dropped, so he was satisfied in his heart.

In the eyes of everyone, the red dragon on the throne said lightly: "Everyone, it has been more than a month since the Imperial Ceremony was announced to the outside world, and the Imperial Ceremony will be in three months."

"The main purpose of convening everyone this time is to inform the outside world of the reaction to the Imperial Ceremony, and to discuss a series of issues during the Imperial Ceremony."

Jose looked at the side of the civil servants under the throne, the prime minister of the kingdom - Ergou.

A month ago, Ergou successfully broke through the bottleneck and was promoted to a legendary mage. As a double legend, he is the kingdom's well-deserved number one fighter under the red dragon.

"Yougou, let everyone know the status of the invitations and the status of the responses."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Er Gou bowed first, then turned to face many colleagues, bowed his head to organize his words, and then said: "Everyone, ten days ago, Your Majesty ordered me to distribute invitations to many powers in the mainland, inviting them to come to watch the ceremony and witness the imperial power. Ceremony."

"According to the results of the reply, except for a very few forces, all the forces have agreed to send representatives to watch the ceremony."

"These forces include the various camps of Tydanore, whether it's the evil camp, or the sects of the gods, or national forces, professional organizations, and even ocean forces that have nothing to do with the Forsey Kingdom have agreed to send representatives."

"All in all, the upcoming Imperial Ceremony will definitely be a grand event that will attract the attention of the whole continent."

After finishing speaking, Er Gou returned to his seat, looking at the red dragon with eyes full of admiration.

Most of the family members under the steps of the throne are like this, worshiping the king who looks at him.

In just over seventy years, the territory of the Fussey Kingdom has expanded from a small piece of Mordo Peak Forest to now occupying one-third of the northern land, an expansion of more than thirty times, which is mainly due to the red dragon.

On the throne, Jose was also proud.

He still clearly remembers the years when he hid in the dark cavern of the Bloodtooth Mine and dared not show his face.

A small caravan from a trading city-state to do business in the Northland is deadly enough, but now, the Forsey Kingdom is still a behemoth entrenched in the Northland, and no one can shake it.

And he——Francisco Trinidad Jose's name has spread throughout the continent, and he dominates the northern part of Tidanol as a strong man. Every word and deed has a major impact on the situation in the Northland and even the world situation.

He's strong, but not the strongest.

Jose was well aware of this, and he said calmly, "Everyone, you have just heard what kind of event the Imperial Ceremony will be in three months' time."

"It was a great day witnessed by the sea and land forces of Tidanor, kingship and theocracy, and black and white."

"but……"

As soon as Jose's voice changed, his tone became low, which made people feel the pressure like a mountain: "If something like an attack from an external force occurs during the Imperial Ceremony, then the Imperial Ceremony will become the laughing stock of the entire continent!"

"I will never allow this to happen!"

On the side of the general under the steps, feeling the iron-blooded will in the words of the red dragon, everyone clenched their fists excitedly

They understand that the next Fussey Kingdom will usher in a big cleaning, sweeping away the garbage and debris hidden in the corner, this is their stage.

Backed by the absolute strength of the kingdom, the filth hidden in the darkness, no matter who their leaders are or what forces support them, will be wiped away, just like dust on glass.

On the throne, Jose clapped his hands.

The shadows of the pillars on the side of the nine steps squirmed, and a red scarf-masked jackal walked out of the shadows. It was a huge figure, and its steps were silent but swift like the wind. how to do it.

The person who came was the leader of the Red Dagger—Van Cleef.

The [Red Dagger] organization he leads is directly under the Red Dragon, and is mainly responsible for intelligence collection, surveillance of hostile forces, and even assassination of important figures of hostile forces that threaten the kingdom.

Van Cleef came to the steps of the throne and looked at the red dragon. Seeing that the red dragon nodded slightly, he turned to the ministers of the kingdom, put his hand into his bosom, and took out a piece of paper.

"According to the intelligence controlled by [Red Dagger], almost all forces in the entire continent are currently collecting intelligence in the Kingdom of Fussey, and most of them have no real threat to the Kingdom. I can ignore it for the time being. I mainly say that some are threatening or have potential. threatening force."

"The first threatening force is the Church of Salvation."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but frowned and started discussing in low voices.

"The Church of the Salvation? Is that the Evil God Church that has disappeared?!"

"I remember that after the Battle of the Red Nest Crypt, the Church of the Salvation suffered heavy losses and hid. I didn't expect them to dare to... They really want to die!"

"Last time, they tried to sabotage the founding ceremony. This time, the old and the new will be settled together!"

"..."

On the throne, Jose clapped his hands, and everyone fell silent.

Van Cleef continued: "Everyone, in fact, as early as a year ago, we discovered the traces of the Church of Salvation."

"This time they have become smarter. Instead of developing in big cities with many people, they turned to remote mountain villages to confuse, brainwash and control ignorant villagers."

"According to His Majesty's order, [Red Dagger] did not act immediately, but monitored the behavior of the Church of Salvation and sent people to break into the Church of the Evil God. Finally, our efforts have paid off."

"Five days ago, I received a tip and found the location of the Church of Salvation's lair. Their lair is on a hidden island in the Black Sea."

Jose took over the words: "I decided to take this opportunity to completely wipe out the Church of Salvation, not only their lair, but also cut off the external tentacles of the Church of Evil God."

"Great! The damn church of evil gods dare to spread the undead plague on the prairie! I have long wanted to destroy them!"

In the first row of generals, the legendary warrior - Graeme Stone Hammer stood up, with a murderous look on his face: "Your Majesty! Be sure to let me join the battle!"

Jose nodded: "You can't hide even if you want to."

"Hahaha," the crowd laughed in good faith.

Beside the legendary orc, Hogg, the gnoll, was fighting side by side. A look of worry flashed in his eyes: "Your Majesty, the Church of the Evil God is far overseas, and our Forsey Kingdom lacks warships. How can we solve this problem?"

Everyone in the hall heard the words and nodded in approval.

Before the Kingdom of Viya was annexed and before Mirkwood was attached, the Kingdom of Fossey was an inland kingdom. It was really impossible to talk about naval construction. Shipbuilding... If the boats fishing on the lake can also be called shipbuilding.

"Teacher...Your Majesty."

Beside Yougou, on the edge of the hall, Tyriel, a Red Dragon student who is also a representative of the elves, raised her hand and said, "The elves have a coastal harbor, and there are three warships in the harbor."

"I remember that the Kingdom of Wei Ya also left some warships."

"If it really doesn't work, merchant ships can also be used for emergency."

"..." Everyone made plans one after another.

"Very good," Jose affirmed everyone's enthusiasm: "But there is no need, this expedition will be led by my good partner - Cassie, and he will bring the murloc, dragon turtle, and water dragon to surprise the enemy , just send some strong people to help out.”

"Because of the National Founding Ceremony, I have to sit in the kingdom, Ergo, Graeme, Luna Xingyu, the three of you go to assist Cassie, and we must wipe out the Church of Salvation."

"Follow!" x3

The red dragon bowed his head and thought to himself: "However, the naval construction you mentioned just now is indeed a problem. As a powerful empire, how can it not have a powerful navy!"

As a traveler, he knows the benefits of sea power.

How about letting Cassie move the murlocs to the Via Kingdom, which can solve the kingdom's navy problem, develop marine resources, solve the population explosion of the murlocs, and stay in the magic tower in the Via Kingdom...

Many ideas took shape in Red Dragon's mind.

On the throne, Jose looked up at everyone. The most important thing at the moment was the Imperial Ceremony, and other issues could be resolved after the Ceremony.

When he thought of the Imperial Ceremony, he felt a little headache.

"Actually, the Church of Salvation is just a small problem, and the big problem is the Red Nest. Van Cleef, please introduce the situation of the Red Nest to everyone."

"As ordered."

Van Cleef went on to say: "According to the intelligence analysis we have collected, the pressure from the direction of the Red Nest will definitely become the main pressure of the Imperial Ceremony."

"After the news of the Imperial Ceremony, most of the red-nest monsters became loose. It is not as good as our majesty to discuss the red-nest mistress in private."

"The Mistress of the Red Nest is certainly not as good as our Majesty!" Hulk, a member of the wild boar, shouted: "That female dragon with only muscles in her brain can only be compared with Your Majesty, there is no comparison at all!"

Jose waved his hand to signal the wild boar to be quiet.

However, although Hulk's words have some flattering elements, they also reflect a fact to a certain extent.

The Red Nest Mistress is far behind the Red Dragon in terms of management. Even at the peak of the Red Nest, the living standards of the monsters under her command are far inferior to those of the citizens of the Kingdom of Fossey, and the level of civilization is even lower.

Coupled with the failure of the last attack on the Fussey Kingdom, there is also a factual basis for the red nest monster to discuss this way.

On the other side, Van Cleef continued: "A few days ago, [Red Dagger]'s informant sent information, and the mistress of the Red Nest was furious, and ordered the massacre of a tribe of ogres, regardless of men, women, or children, leaving no one behind."

"It was only later that we found out the specific news. The cause of the incident was that the small ogre tribe of fifty people secretly planned to defect to the Forsey Kingdom, and the ogre's brains turned out to be, alas, a tragedy."

Jose: "Okay, you step back."

"Yes," said VanCleef, disappearing into the shadows.

Everyone's eyes focused on the red dragon again.

In fact, as early as the Red Nest failed in the war against the Forsey Kingdom, and after the gnolls who attacked the border of the Principality of Norn were recruited, there was a wave of defection from the Red Nest monsters.

After all, the Fussey Kingdom can also provide asylum. No matter how miserable life is in the Fussey Kingdom, it is much better than the Red Nest. Under such circumstances, how could they not be tempted!

It was only later that the Mistress of the Red Nest reacted quickly and sent her cronies and family members to lead the army to garrison the border of the Forsey Kingdom, and used iron and blood methods against the defectors, which stopped the evil trend of defection.

Jose felt sorry for this, but he would not fall out with the Red Nest Mistress because of this.

Strictly speaking, the Mistress of the Red Nest killed her own people, and it had nothing to do with the Fossey Kingdom.

"Everyone, with the announcement of the Imperial Ceremony, the prestige of the Forsey Kingdom has skyrocketed, and many monster races have come to seek refuge. This is a good thing, but it has also aroused the jealousy of the Red Nest Mistress. The prestige of the Cypriot Kingdom."

Jose spit out an explosive news in a flat tone: "I received a message to confirm this. The news came from a real dragon under the command of the Red Nest Mistress. He wanted to betray the Red Nest Mistress and seek refuge in the kingdom."

"In order not to irritate the Mistress of the Red Nest too much and cause an accident at the Imperial Ceremony, I asked him to be patient for now, and then slowly draw it after the Imperial Ceremony."

"However, the true dragons under his command are all thinking of defecting, so it can be seen that there is indeed a problem inside the Red Nest, and it is a big problem."

"Let the problem develop freely, and all the people in the Red Nest may even go to the Forsey Kingdom."

"Put yourself in the same situation. If I were the mistress of the Red Nest, the best solution would be to defeat or even destroy the Forsyth Kingdom to prove my own strength. In this way, the problem of the Red Nest will be fundamentally resolved."

"I am very worried, worried that the future conflict will change from a north-south conflict between the Red Nest and the South to a conflict between the Red Nest and the Forsey Kingdom."

Jose said lightly: "Judging from the current behavior of the Mistress of the Red Nest, this is almost an inevitable result."

"In this regard, we have to prepare for another war with the Red Nest. If the Mistress of the Red Nest wants to start a war, it will definitely be on the eve of the Imperial Ceremony."

"And the southern countries are also happy to see the conflict between the Fussey Kingdom and the Red Nest, and may even give the Red Nest the green light. Judging from the recent frequent contacts between the Red Nest and the South, it is quite possible that they will give the Red Nest the green light."

In the throne hall, everyone frowned.

The question now is not whether the Fussey Kingdom can defend against the Red Nest attack, but how to ensure that the Imperial Ceremony will be held smoothly and end beautifully under the Red Nest attack.

If one is not good, the Imperial Ceremony of the Forsyth Kingdom will fail, its prestige will be damaged, and the momentum of monsters from all over the continent to vote will be interrupted.

Er Gou said: "Your Majesty, I suggest creating conflicts between the southern countries and the Red Nest by creating troubles, so as to slow down the energy of the Mistress of the Red Nest, so that the Imperial Ceremony can be held smoothly."

"We can try this effort," Jose nodded in approval, and then continued: "But we can't pin all our hopes on external forces. In the end, we still have to rely on ourselves, everyone here."

"I have a plan. The Imperial Ceremony will start in spring next year, and the coming winter will be a time when Red Nest will be short of food. At this time, I will find a way to destroy the food supply of Red Nest, detonate the conflict in advance, and fight with Red Nest before the Imperial Ceremony. Do one more fight to suppress the arrogance of the Mistress of the Red Nest in advance."
