Chapter 235: 233 Take the Initiative_1

Translator: 549690339

One week had passed since Otto last returned to the Land of the Soaring Dragon.

Felina and Sofia had been getting along pretty well during that time.

Although there was still a sense of unfamiliarity between them, overall, their relationship was progressing in a positive direction.

At this moment, Otto was lying on a pile of treasures on the Blackstone Platform. In front of him stood Gaz, the goblin he had recently sent to conquer Caran.

The operation had gone very smoothly, with the Eastern Empire contributing a great deal of help.

Not only had all of Caran’s territory been captured by the Soaring Dragon Legion, but even their royal family and nobles who had fled overseas had been brought back by the Eastern Empire.

Otto had no interest in these bloated parasites, so their final fate was to be turned into sandbags and used to fill in Harvest Bay.

Now, Gaz had selected a bastard of the Caran royal family with the least significance to take the throne, according to Otto’s request.

After all, it would be somewhat difficult to have a monster rule over the people of Caran.

So it was easier to do it this way.

Of course, this was just a puppet regime. The new king of Caran had already been marked with a Blood Covenant, making it impossible for him to betray Otto as long as he lived.

From then on, trade between the Eastern Empire and the Land of the Soaring Dragon officially commenced.

Weapons and equipment produced by the Black Iron Dwarves were shipped to the Eastern Empire through Caran’s ports and Harvest Bay, arriving in a continuous stream.

Although the quality had declined slightly, the prices had actually increased.

Even so, the people of the Eastern Empire happily accepted these seemingly substandard weapons and equipment without complaint.

Meanwhile, the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce was doing the same thing with them.

According to the intelligence they had received, Angelina had allied with the Bauhinia and was fighting a war against Tal from both Lait and Dilant.

Once Tal fell, Farrand would be next. The war was going much smoother than imagined, but the new king of Lait was still tied down in chaos in Felton and unable to extricate himself.

Otto didn’t believe that, without the involvement of the Western Empire, the relatively equal-strength Felton could withstand the new king of Lait for so long.

When Tal finally fell and the war spread to Farrand, the end for the new king of Lait would not be far away.

At the same time, due to the war, there was an increasing number of refugees. Saru seized this opportunity to send humans marked with the Blood Covenant back to various countries.

At this moment, the intelligence network of the Land of the Soaring Dragon was nothing less than that of the Bauhinia.

The failure of the new king of Lait was destined. No matter how much he fought, he seemed to only be a dog raised by the Eastern Empire.

The purpose was simple: to reduce the power of the Western Empire as much as possible.

That was because almost all of the surrounding kingdoms were either allies or vassal states of the Western Empire.

The new king of Lait could lose, but he must lose to Otto.

At least, the dragons in his hands must be served up on Otto’s table.

So, Otto looked at Gaz, who was respectfully kneeling below him.

“I remember that you come from Black Gold City, don’t you?”

Upon hearing this, Gaz’s body trembled violently, and he nodded silently.

“Although I don’t know what attachment you still have to Black Gold City, by now, you should have obtained the power and status you needed.”

Otto squinted and looked at Gaz, saying indifferently, “Well, now is the time for you to go back and prove yourself.

Lead the Soaring Dragon Legion and conquer the Dragon Bone Wasteland for me, clearing away any obstacles in the way.

If the opponent is the Bauhinia, don’t hold back. 𝖋𝖗𝖊𝖊𝔴𝖊𝖇𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖊𝖑.𝖈𝖔𝖒

Don’t worry about Konoheim. He has nothing to do with Black Gold City now.”

Gaz looked excitedly at Otto then pressed his forehead against the black stone floor, grinding it until deep bloodstains appeared.

“I, Gaz, won’t disappoint your expectations!”

What, Angelina has allied with the Bauhinia?

But what does that have to do with me, Otto?

After Gaz left the Council Chamber with an excited look, Saru entered.

“Your Majesty!”

The old Lizardman knelt respectfully in front of Otto and said, “According to your instructions, the northern fortress has been built.”

He was referring to the dungeon left behind by Welin in the north of Nolan Forest.

At this point, the number of monsters in the Land of the Soaring Dragon had grown immensely, and almost all of the monster races of Nolan Forest had gathered here.

It seemed a bit crowded as it was.

And if they continued to expand endlessly, the Land of the Soaring Dragon would soon reach Lait.

So Otto ordered the construction of a new fortress based on the northern dungeon, having the kobolds build it.

Now that the underground tunnels between the two locations had been opened, even if the Magic Train was only operating between Red Copper Castle and Black Iron Field.

Even walking back and forth was very convenient.

It’s worth mentioning that Welin had recently found out about what Otto had done to the Thunder Legion.

However, to Otto’s surprise, the Blue Dragon only expressed a little regret and, after acknowledging that she knew about it, continued to press her offensive against Otto.

She hadn’t given up on her idea of laying a clutch of dragon eggs with Lande.

Moreover, she didn’t seem to care about the fate of others in the small town in the Dragon Bone Wasteland.

According to her, she had already done enough.

This left Otto somewhat puzzled, unable to figure out Welin’s true character.

At this time, Saru continued, “Your Majesty, a chaotic war is taking place in the Land of the Soaring Dragon, in the heart of the Sky Mountain Range.”

Due to the death of Lars Lait, many monster clans were fighting each other to claim more territory.”

“Oh, that sounds a lot like monster clans’ styles, fighting for interests immediately after the master dies.”

Otto laughed and nodded. Loyalty was the most laughable lie to monsters.

“How about the situation in the Land of Red Flames?”

“I’m sorry, but the Flame Lizards that sneaked in haven’t sent back any useful intelligence yet.”

“Is that so? ”

Despite his disappointment, Otto said, “Well, in that case, let’s take over the Land of the Soaring Dragon. Being passively beaten is not my style.

I don’t want to wait for the Demon Army to arrive at my doorstep before realizing something has gone wrong in the Land of Red Flames.”

“You mean?”

Saru looked hesitantly at Otto, who said indifferently, “Gaz will most likely take some of the loyalists from the Soaring Dragon Legion to conquer the Dragon Bone Wasteland, so the responsibility for Sky Mountain Range will be yours.

Most of the remaining loyalists were once Lars Lait’s subordinates, so they should be quite familiar with the Sky Mountain Range. Take them with you.”

“As you wish, Your Majesty!”
