Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

Imric didn't care whether Norgrin spoke and the High King agreed. After all, the legitimacy of the Phoenix Crown came from Aenarion. If someone from other kingdoms forcibly seizes power, they may need the name of the Guardian to enhance their legitimacy.

But Caledo has produced a dragon tamer and three Phoenix Kings. It can be called the legacy of the ancient empire and the only orthodox kingdom of the elves.

It took a lot of time to assemble the troops. As Raskol's successor, a general who began to delegate power, in order to express goodwill to Caledor, he took the initiative to send the First Guards Army, which had returned to Kislev, across the sea. Making an already long time even more torturous.

What is even more unbearable is the Eternal Peak, where the High King comes with a throne of power and an army of ten thousand people.

As for Haimen Pass, which is the starting point of the transportation route, in order to cater to the Supreme King, whose reputation is growing in the Gunshan Kingdom, he spent a lot of money to renovate the train to ensure that every passenger can experience the wealth brought by trade and reverse the reputation of Haimen Pass in the mountains. .

Naturally, the emperor's journey south would not be a simple matter. Thorgreen ignored the urging from the joint command and took his time to inspect the Bottomless Stone Steps and the Golden Oath City.

Distribute various scarce supplies to the settled clans. It doesn't matter if they don't have them. Pointy Ears will definitely be able to get the wine, meat and wheat that are urgently needed for the dwarf banquet.

We have a lot of gold coins and silver in Eternal Peak, so we asked the mage to transport the supplies from Sartosha, and we were drunk for three days before we considered going south.

This made Belegar go crazy with anger, wishing that Minas Nir would fly to the bottomless steps and turn Thorgrin's mustache nickname into reality.

Fortunately, Imrik was not in a hurry about this, and would review the specific conditions of each unit as usual every day. If he encountered some promising talents, he would give some pointers on martial arts skills, and invite soldiers who had achieved outstanding results in the badlands over the past twenty years to the dinner. Highlight a fellow officer and soldier.

But all this changed with the bad news about the ruins of Morukan. Bruni, who led his army deep into the swamp, received not very good news. A beastman shaman named Malago Dark Recruitment in the mouth of the necromancer, The Ten Thousand Demon Rocks are being erected with countless blood, in an attempt to flood the mortal world with the blood of the Chaos Demon Realm.

How to get so much blood? The reason is very simple. The greenskin tribe expelled from the west of the Badlands is the best sacrifice for the beastmen.

Imrik, who was still enjoying the shoulder-beating service of the maid, was quite confused. I thought that the beastmen did not have any conflict with the greenskins. The only purpose of these hoofed beasts to survive was to destroy civilization, but the greenskins have civilization. Can it be said?
Is mushroom meat more in line with their appetite than human meat?

Imric was puzzled by this matter. Imric had no interest in the herd of howling beasts led by the Dark Recruitment. They were just a group of inconspicuous bastards who could only bully and bully the human countryside without formal armed protection. In addition to making the world become a Besides being even more disgusting, these bastards make no sense at all.

But since all the important generals under his command have asked for support, as the dragon lord, he cannot sit idly by.

Which unit to send has become a difficult problem. Everyone wants to participate in the honorable battle to regain the Dragon Horn. Even the Kislev First Guards Army who came across the sea also named them to participate in the Eight Peaks Mountain incident.

After thinking about it, I still can't decide.

So Imrik threw the problem to his old friend Masnow and asked the Champion Warrior to come up with an idea. As the actual person in charge of Caledor in the Badlands, he had more say than himself.

Masnot, who drinks tea to maintain his health, shrugs his shoulders as if to show that this is a trivial matter and does not require too much attention.

"Send a group of people from Gulam. We need to consume the first batch of participants as soon as possible. What I did in Anaheim may become a direction for Caledo to be verbally attacked in the future."

Masnow didn't want to talk about the specific implementation aspects of the Gulam plan. Anyway, it was very different from when Bruni trained the first batch of Kislev mercenaries.

The latter is to give soldiers the ability to change situations and cultivate top talents as much as possible. The former's position is to sacrifice for the sake of the situation. There is no need for so-called talents, only to obey orders.

Imrik nodded thoughtfully. Masnow was taking the initiative to bury the stain and prepare for his future identity. "The original plan was to assign soldiers specializing in critical battles to Bruni's staff. As long as this dark recruitment fails to cause trouble, I will not interfere with their results."

Masnuo's expression was very subtle. His words and actions just now had a tentative meaning, and he wanted to observe the prince's attitude towards the humans under his rule, whom he had not seen for twenty years.

In the past arrangements, although the Ghulam Plan was cruel, as long as the participants were older than the predetermined stage, the palace would provide compensation for their "loyal" service throughout their lives, and there was no need to think too much about their later years.

This is not in line with the racial consciousness of the elves, but it is in line with the goodwill that remains in the prince's heart.

In Masnow's impression, Imrik rarely had the mentality of killing all except Druzi and ratmen. Even the vampires who manipulated the corpses of dragons and desecrated the glory of legendary warriors would be given some life.

Is it the desire for power, or a change in existential attributes...

Suppressing some surprise in his heart, Masnot pretended to be relaxed and nodded, thinking that the value of these slave soldiers was nothing more than this.

"I will arrange this, and I hope Bruni can give us a satisfactory answer, haha."

The champion warrior who answered with a smile left the room, leaving the prince and maid alone to wait quietly for the arrival of the next document.

Phyllis stared at the room that had been closed for a long time. After confirming that Masno had left, her tone was sure to analyze the clues in the champion warrior's words just now.

"Your Highness, Masnow has taken great care of the participants of the Gulam Project for many years. Some seriously injured people who should be treated on the spot to avoid wasting medical resources have been sent to the rear for treatment.

Many soldiers whose physical functions have declined and are unable to participate in fierce battles were sent to the Obsidian Mountains in the name of mine workers. Obviously he was testing you just now. "

The maid doesn't trust anyone, and her spies all over Caledor are enough to know most things.

As the hidden eyes of the Dragon Prince, she will report every suspicious incident to His Highness.

Imric nodded, not doubting the maid's conclusion. He picked up a chess piece based on a giant dragon from the table, held it in his hand and rubbed it.

"Compared to us, Masnuo, the dragon prince protected by the Ice Holy Sword, has a sincere and kind heart.

Would you be disgusted by a well-intentioned person? Phyllis. "

"No, but good intentions can often only achieve the worst results. In a cold world, only a strong will of steel is the prerequisite for victory."

The cold words let Imric know that the maid must be talking about Randy's death, but the old minister was already dead, and his soul had been wiped out by the fire of Asuryan. Apart from mourning and sentimentality, there was only useless nostalgia.

He sighed, looked up at the ceiling and shook his head silently. He only hoped that the position of Phoenix King would make your and Wycliffe's deaths somewhat meaningful... (End of Chapter)
