Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

Lilaze first bowed her head in salute to the Phoenix King who was sitting in the chair, and then nodded to several people sitting there. Her identity is the chief maid of the Eternal Queen. She is said to be a maid, but in fact she is the spokesperson, and she is on the same level as the prince.

Similar to the captain of the Phoenix Guard, but as the captain of the White Lion Guard, Cohir does not have such treatment. It can only be said that the fire repellent curse is very harmful. The Phoenix Guard who is supposed to be the Phoenix King's guard is still living in the Platinum Flame Temple. , let a bunch of Charis's reckless men serve as the Phoenix King's guards.

After greeting them one by one, Lilaze said, "In this war council, I will represent the Queen's will and declare the Queen's will to all the princes." Then he looked at the people standing behind Imrik and Gilgarion. The tense crowd.

It is an Assur tradition that one is not allowed to draw his sword in front of the Eternal Queen. Imric waved his hand to Davian and asked Davian to put away his sword and sit down. This boy did a good job. He did not even tell him what he was going to do, but he executed it perfectly. I have to give him a salary increase when I get back.

"I don't know what Her Majesty Alarielle's will is, but we will definitely carry it out with all our strength." Morarion, who was sitting next to him, began to act as a peacemaker. He is the oldest among them, almost 800 years old, and he is highly respected. Prince Yris is still very prestigious here.

Sitting back on the chair, Imric remained silent. The relationship between Caledor and the Everqueen was a bit complicated. Caledor, the three-time Phoenix King, is theoretically the closest to Avalon. The Phoenix King and the Everqueen They need to live together for a year and then give birth to a daughter who will be the next Eternal Queen. Imric, the Conqueror, did not have a relationship with the Eternal Queen at that time because he was busy fighting at the time, but he was still her husband in name.

And Caledor II successfully gave birth to a daughter with the Eternal Queen. Although neither family thought that there was a blood relationship, they basically stopped seeing each other after doing this, because it involved the issue of family inheritance. If If you can't shoot accurately and give birth to a boy, it will be a bit embarrassing to run for Prince of Caledor when you grow up.

There was once such a case. After Caledor II was beheaded (Calledo II, hereafter referred to as Caledonian), a man who claimed to be Caledon's son came to Caledo and claimed that he had the right to inherit. However, the giant at the time The Dragon Court began a series of investigations starting with the dragon tamer, and found no evidence that he had the right to inherit.

Later, through the contact of the Eternal Queen, I found out that this boy was the product of an inaccurate shot at that time. The Dragon Palace at that time did not say that he could not inherit. They just found a dragon for him to ride. As long as he flew over the Dragon's Back Mountains, The volcano at the end is qualified to inherit the Dragon Prince.

Then he deliberately tricked him and didn't give him a dragon saddle, because the dragon saddle was forged by Vaal Anvil and distributed to various families for inheritance. If you think you are a descendant of the dragon tamer family, then someone must give it to you. Get on the Dragon Saddle, right? The time is today. Go back to Avalon before you can fly over.

Holding back his fear, he mounted a Sun Dragon Queen, grabbed the protruding scales on the dragon's back, and flew from Tal Kaled to Vaal Anvil. According to a dragon who was watching the ceremony, The prince reported that because the Sun Dragon was flying too fast and he had no experience riding a dragon for the first time, his hand slipped and he fell into the volcano.

From then on, if the shot fails and it turns out to be a boy, he will be placed in Avalon by the Eternal Queen, and he will never be allowed to go out at will. (The above content is pure nonsense from the author, please do not take it seriously.)

Returning to the palace of the War Council, Lilaze did not sit down, but looked at Imric and Gilgarion respectively, "Two princes, the queen believes that the tide of dusk is coming fiercely, and all countries need to work together to Resist the invasion of monsters in the Anulli Mountains instead of going to war because of some verbal conflicts."

Finding Prince Elion at the foot of the steps again, he obviously didn't want to miss this opportunity. "The knights of Elion always obey the will of Her Majesty the Queen."

Lilaze, who received Gilgarion's reply, looked at Imric and asked, "Dragon Prince, what do you think?"

Imric thought to himself that the situation was developing as expected.

"Since it is the Queen's will, Caledor will naturally respect it."

Seeing that she had accepted the mediation, Lilaze sat on the chair with the Ring of Aisha, placed a ring symbolizing the Eternal Queen on the table, and continued, "I have just reported the situation of the War Council. I gave it to Her Majesty the Queen. Her Majesty believes that Caledor needs to provide reinforcements and armaments to Tyron Locke and Elion. Avalon will provide a batch of funds and supplies to the Dragon Prince as compensation. Can the Dragon Prince agree?"

After hearing this, the two princes were a little uneasy at first. If Avalon was allowed to pay for the cost of hiring the Caledorian army, the spiritual leader hired a large group of proud Caledonian troops to support them and returned to the country. The pressure of public opinion in the future would crush them both to death. Prince Azrael first said, "Tyronlock can bear this expense alone. Thank you for your majesty's love."

Gilgalion also agreed that this matter must not be borne by the court of the Eternal Queen.

He tapped the table with his fingers and calculated what he could take out. The first was the number of troops. He could pull out a standing army of six thousand people and ten dragon princes riding giant dragons. This number could support two countries. Crossing the Twilight Tide is no problem at all.

There are more than 2,000 sets of equipment that have just been replaced in the warehouse. In addition to the equipment that was previously stored and used for combat readiness replacement, as well as some equipment that is expected to be replaced in the future, there are about 7,500 sets, one-half of which are all. It was made of Israma silver. Because it was busy forging gold coins and new equipment, Vaal Anvil did not have time to resmelt this part of the equipment.

Then he said, "Calledo naturally respects the queen's will. I can send an army of two thousand people and three dragons to assist Tyron Locke and Elion in their defense. As for armaments, I can provide two thousand five hundred sets of equipment." , half made of Yselama silver."

This number made several people frown. It was obvious that Imric had falsely reported the number. According to speculations from other kingdoms, Caledor's current standing army is at least 25,000 people. It would take only 10,000 people to hold the top of the Annuli Mountains. It's enough, and even if the output of the Val Anvil is reduced, it should still be around 20,000 sets per year.

Lilaze did not test the bottom line with Imric like others, but said straight to the point, "The Dragon Prince can directly state a desired amount. The queen's court does not lack treasures."

She finally understood that Imrik was definitely obsessed with money. After talking for a long time, he just felt that the money was not enough.

"Ms. Lilaze's words surprised me. The warriors of Caledor cannot be measured by something as foul as money." Why do you need money? To put it bluntly, you only use money to buy supplies. You don't really mean it. Dragon, how can I sleep on the bed with a lot of gold coins?

"When my late father was a war lord, Caledor gave a lot of support in the country, which caused the development to lag in all aspects. He even did not participate in Ulthuan's most important trade activities in recent years, and went all out to attack Druzi."

This time I want it all, not only money and horses, but also a share of the trade. As a dragon lord, if you don't have a big appetite, why are you called a dragon lord?
