Chapter 398: Chapter 397 War Mobilization Order
Russell and Nicholas chatted happily for several hours, reaching an agreent on many details that would be vividly presented in Nicholas’ new work—”Thunderfall in Dragon Domain”—to ensure all readers and audience mbers felt as if they were on the scene.
“Lord Russell, please rest assured, I will complete the creation of ‘Thunderfall in Dragon Domain’ as soon as possible,” Nicholas bid farewell as he stepped out.
Russell personally saw him to the door, “No hurry, take your ti to write; I understand you writers, art needs ample ti to be polished… In any case, Nicholas, you must handle the details of ‘Thunderfall in Dragon Domain’ well.”
Nicholas bowed in thanks, enthusiastically praising, “After speaking with you, Sir, my mind is already brimming with details. I will strive to faithfully replicate everything experienced by the protagonist, no, Su Luo!”
“Very good, I’m looking forward to it.”
“Sir, I shall take my leave,” Nicholas, full of confidence, left Red Castle and returned to his ho in Furious Wind City to start writing.
With the many details provided by Russell, he eagerly wrote the scene of “Su Luo stepping on Count Loxau”—a detail that Russell had emphasized must be described with precision.
“Hiss, I wonder if Earl Osclo will send soone to chop
up after seeing this scene?” After finishing his draft, Nicholas couldn’t help but shiver as he savored his work.
But he soon reassured himself, “Lord Russell has already assured
that after the publication of ‘Thunderfall in Dragon Domain,’ I can stay in the Blackfla Plains for a while to avoid the lilight and… Lord Russell will also publicly deliver a speech on ‘creative freedom.'”
…
‘Thunderfall in Dragon Domain’ is rely an interlude.
Russell was soon planning to take his leave, escorting sixty-five thousand serfs back to his own territory. However, before his departure, he was summoned by Count rlin.
“Russell, co with ,” Count rlin went straight to the underground passage, leading Russell toward Shadowfla Volcano.
At the end of the passage, Lord Volcanic Minister Welchi awaited them, “Chief Executive, Lord Russell, you’ve arrived.”
“Welchi, has everyone arrived?”
“Everyone is here, praying to His Highness Shadowfla,” Welchi opened the door at the end of the passage.
On the platform inside the door, several knights were already seated cross-legged on the ground.
Russell, having participated in two Falling Battles, recognized these knights; all were famous Flying Dragon Knights of the Shadowfla Grand Duchy.
Sandra, the Silver Dragon Knight.
Labour, the Golden Dragon Knight.
Hancock, the Black Coal Dragon Knight.
Gerard, the Ruby Dragon Knight.
Croia, the Steel Dragon Knight.
Kunbei, the Danquan Stone Dragon Knight.
Additionally, there was another, sowhat elderly figure: the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Baron Swan Quinbylf Fla-shadow.
What surprised Russell, however, was another familiar figure among the seven Flying Dragon Knights.
It was none other than Drella, who had previously shown up at his brother Roland’s wedding to provoke him and was subsequently beaten and intimidated by him.
At this mont, Drella also exuded a surge of Dragon Breath.
Clearly, he had also been promoted to a Flying Dragon Knight.
“Chief Executive, Lord Russell,” the Flying Dragon Knights stood up and greeted Count rlin and Russell in turn.
Baron Kunbifu squinted and glanced at Russell—he rembered Russell had previously sent Toddlera to deliver a challenge to him.
At that ti, he was furious. How dare a re new Flying Dragon Knight challenge him so presumptuously!
Now, he only hoped that Russell had forgotten about it; he did not dare to be tornted by a Flying Dragon Knight who was also the Dragon Domain Lord with his old bones.
Apart from Baron Kunbifu, Drella’s expression was the most conflicted.
He had completely lost face in front of Russell before, and the most ridiculous thing was that he couldn’t even defeat Roland. Now that Russell is the foremost person in the Shadowfla Grand Duchy, even though he had been promoted to a Flying Dragon Knight, he still didn’t dare to harbor any thoughts of revenge.
“All right, everyone, please take a seat,” Count rlin took the lead and sat down cross-legged on the ground, “This ti, in front of His Highness Shadowfla, we shall hold a eting of the Flying Dragon Knights… Uh, Roman is not here, but having Russell is the sa.”
Previously, the Shadowfla Grand Duchy had ten Flying Dragon Knights.
Among them, Sandra, Labour, Hancock, Gerard, Croia, Wei’Erqi, and Kunbei, seven lords of the Grand Duchy, and the other three were rlin, the Manganese Steel Dragon Knight Earl, Baron Kunbifu, the Bronze Dragon Knight, and Baron Davis, the Peat Dragon Knight.
Now Davis was deceased.
But Baron Roman had beco a Dragon Knight, followed by Russell’s successful bid to beco a dragon rider, along with Drella who had stealthily succeeded as well.
The Shadowfla Grand Duchy now had a total of twelve Flying Dragon Knights.
Gurgling.
Below the platform, the lava was boiling hot, and the Shadowfla Dragon’s head floated on the magma, eyes closed in cultivation, as if paying no heed to the gathering of the Flying Dragon Knights.
But Russell, who was sitting cross-legged, knew that the Shadowfla Dragon had awakened and was closely monitoring everyone’s eting at all tis.
This was the information brought to him by the M-shaped mark on the palm of his hand from the Little Dream Dragon.
Although the Little Dream Dragon didn’t dare to show up near the Shadowfla Dragon, it dared to assist Russell through the M-shaped mark.
“After the issuance of the Demon Subduing Order, and the fall of Davis, the Council of Elders cannot shirk its responsibility,” Count rlin first frankly admitted the adverse results brought about by the Demon Subduing Order policy, “But the situation of the Grand Duchy is clear to all, that’s why we’ll continue to implent the Demon Subduing Order.”
Silver Dragon Knight Sandra nodded and said, “Lord rlin is right, we must not cut off our nose to spite our face; otherwise, it’s a slow death… The Flying Dragon Knights hunting Snow Demons together is precisely the correct adjustnt, with us watching over each other, even Snow Giant Da can do us no harm!”
Although Davis’s death had made the Flying Dragon Knights uneasy, at this mont, they couldn’t show a hint of cowardice.
They slapped their chests in assurance, vowing to strictly implent the Demon Subduing Order policy.
Even Drella, the newly promoted Erald Dragon Knight, made his chest resound with a slap: “To hunt Snow Demons, and to die on the Snowfield, is nothing to regret, I only wish to contribute my strength to His Highness Shadowfla’s cause, not to sha my country’s training and my Dragon’s recognition!”
“Well said!” Baron Kunbifu praised Drella.
He had already promised to give his granddaughter in marriage to Drella; if Kunsley was elected as Grand Duke, Drella would have a chance to vie for the position of Baron.
Drella smiled shyly; although he couldn’t marry the daughter of Baron Bullhorn, marrying the granddaughter of Baron Swan was also a source of pride.
The Demon Subduing Order was unanimously agreed upon.
Count rlin then turned to inquire of Russell, “Your speed is unmatched in the world, Russell; I would like to entrust you with a mission.”
“Please instruct , Chief Executive,” said Russell.
“With the Warm Season approaching, the Council of Elders will pass a decision to mobilize for war, using the Dragon Blood Knights as the backbone to patrol the national borders. Firstly, to hunt Snow Demons, and secondly, to draw out Snow Giant Da, to scout the situation with Snow Giant Da.”
After pausing for a mont, Count rlin continued, “I intend to personally take the position of the commander to lead the Dragon Blood Knights into battle on the Snowfield. But I am only one person and my strength is limited, therefore I need your assistance.”
He looked at Russell, full of hope, “I hope you can serve as the Knight Lieutenant of the Dragon Blood Knights as my assistant. When we encounter Snow Giant Da, you will hold off Snow Giant Da to allow the Dragon Blood Knights to retreat in a tily manner.”
Russell frowned slightly; he certainly had the confidence to face Snow Giant Da head-on.
But he was even more confident in his ability to escape, no longer facing a situation like before when he could not retreat into the Gloomy Dreamland in ti.
“Chief Executive, I can only say that I will do my best to obstruct Snow Giant Da,” Russell didn’t assure recklessly, “But if the power of Snow Giant Da exceeds my limits, then I will imdiately flee.”
“Of course,” Count rlin nodded.
Then he addressed the other Flying Dragon Knights, “The sa goes for you. When you encounter Snow Giant Da, assist each other in teams. It would be best to lure Snow Giant Da to the border… At that ti, His Highness Shadowfla himself will descend to battle Snow Giant Da!”
The Flying Dragon Knights all nodded in agreent.
Russell, however, was sowhat puzzled, “Chief Executive, why must we lure Snow Giant Da into action? Does our Grand Duchy truly have confidence in dealing with Snow Giant Da?”
Count rlin sighed calmly, “Because we need to understand the precise situation of Snow Giant Da, otherwise, for the foreseeable future, we will live in fear… His Highness Shadowfla intends to probe Snow Giant Da again, to adjust our strategy in the standoff.”
