Under the Red Dragon.

Chapter 336: Meeting of Kings: January Appointment

The sun had just risen, and the chariot in the sky was rolling again, with the royal flag fluttering in the wind.

Compared with the wilderness and forests outside, the God-Forsaken Mountains appear particularly ancient and desolate, as if they were still in ancient times and are almost incompatible with the outside world.

The Dragon's Nest Mountains of the Golden Empire are tall and wide enough, stretching for thousands of miles.

But in the God-Forsaken Mountains, there are countless mountain peaks that are like dragon nests, rising one after another.

The white dragon Gemot stuck his head out of the chariot and rested on the edge of the chariot. The first impression of the God-Forsaken Mountains turned into four big words that crashed into the pupils of the white dragon - One Hundred Thousand Mountains.

In front of the rising and falling isolated peaks and the towering rugged cliffs, the rising sun in the sky looks like it is hanging on the top of the pine forest on the top of these lonely cliffs.

The terrifying sound made by the biting cold wind from high altitude passing through the wind tunnels on the steep cliffs, and the howling of unknown beasts in the thick fog that filled the mountains and forests, made people feel a chill running up their spines.

The shadowy shadows of the trees swayed slightly in the mist, making it look like there were scary monsters hiding in every corner.

The northern wasteland of Ekania is a world where monsters and beasts roam rampant, but in the God-Forsaken Mountains, there is an even more ancient barbaric era.

Since entering the majestic mountains, the team in the sky has focused all their attention. The omnipresent dangerous atmosphere constantly irritates the nerves of these battle-hardened warriors.

On the bare peaks outside the God-Forsaken Mountains, at the foot of the mountains that looked like carved statues of eyeless and nameless gods, they saw the dead bones of the cunning and cruel dire wolves that hunted in groups, piled up in mountains and abandoned in the valley.

The hunters who killed these dire wolves seemed to be particularly picky. They simply hollowed out the dire wolves' internal organs, tore out the fattest muscles on the dire wolves, and then discarded the rest of the carcass.

Although the dire wolf is not a rare species, the complete skin of an adult dire wolf can be sold for about two silver coins in the trading market of Gulfstream City.

The two special bone-crushing posterior teeth in the dire wolf's mouth are the most powerful weapons of this beast monster, which has the best bite force in the mortal world.

Some beast hunters will sell the bone-crushing fangs of dire wolves to warriors who like to use special heavy weapons. After being magically stabilized, even ordinary-level dire wolf fangs can become the dreaded "bone crusher".

In the trading market of Gulfstream City, the two special back fangs of the Dire Wolf can be sold for an average price of nearly ten silver coins.

Here, there are the corpses of hundreds of terrifying wolves, whose flesh and blood have not yet melted away.

The wealth from the outside world doesn't seem to work in this place, and the creatures here don't care much about the things in this world. Only wildness exists.

Just like those birds that suddenly swooped out from the clouds in the sky.

The cry of the Peng bird is sharp and high-pitched, with extra penetrating power, which vaguely forms a natural suppression on some creatures.

The feathers of these ferocious peng birds exuded a cold black steel color, carrying the wild aura of ancient blood. They spread their huge steel wings and swooped down towards the dragon knights at the front of the team.

The average size of these Peng birds was actually much larger than the flying dragons of the empire. Even the natural dragon power exuded by more than ten white dragons did not scare these Peng birds.

With its sharp eyes, it regarded the numerous flying dragons in front of it as prey. Its huge steel claws were as sharp and long as hooks, and it seemed that they were definitely not something that the tough leather armor on the dragon's surface could withstand.

But the dragon riders of the Golden Empire seemed to regard these huge and ferocious birds as nothingness, and continued to ride their dragons forward.

Although the training of air knights is not more arduous than that of the Imperial Land Corps soldiers, the first principle in the air knight training course is not to panic.

Because the air knights have a lower tolerance for error than the land legion soldiers, if they panic when facing danger, it will cause a series of chain reactions.

This is even a motto engraved in the blood of the Empire's Air Knights, so the reaction of each air knight must be combined with the abilities and characteristics of the flying dragons under their mounts.

Just as the dragon under the dragon knight in front received the telepathic order from his knight, and his brightly colored beard was about to vibrate to activate the unique aerial leap ability of the bat-winged dragon clan, the White King's attendant standing in front of the chariot received instructions.

The frost giant guard took down the small bell hanging on the eaves of the chariot, stepped forward, glared at him, and shouted: "A few ignorant beasts dared to ram the imperial dragon king's crown!"

The surging magic power poured from the armor and body of the Frost Giant Guard into the small bell shaking in his hand, and immediately an invisible sound wave spread.

The echo of ancient witchcraft and the sound of the dragon's majesty rose and fell, overlapping as the bells rang.

Just like an imperial decree, the incredible power instantly transformed the several peng birds that were swooping down into them into pigs, dogs, cows and sheep. The cries of the peng birds also turned into the roars of pigs, dogs, cows and sheep, and they instantly fell into the deep valley on the ground.

Complete Transfiguration, a high-level magic of the Ninth Ring, can essentially use the magical power of Transfiguration to cover the original life form of the target with a designated new life form.

This change is similar to the consciousness override possessed by legendary beings, and has the power to completely transform the mind and one's own abilities.

If the target cannot resist this transformation, other than being automatically released, the only way for the transformed target to return to its original life form is at death.

This magic treasure was forged by Karon Gogmora when he was organizing the knowledge he had learned. Although it cannot transform those extremely powerful enemies, it is very useful against small-scale clusters of enemies.

These fierce birds were not equipped to withstand the force of this transformation, and their iron-hard feathers could not protect them.

Except for the Peng bird that fell in the mountains and had a chance to survive, the remaining four or five Peng birds fell to their deaths. After their death, the magical effect of the complete transformation spell was dissipated in their bodies, and they turned back to their original forms.

But this behavior might be a provocation to those Peng birds. Amid the cries all over the mountain, hundreds of huge Peng birds rose into the air from the nests in the ancient trees on the cliffs. The strong winds created by their huge steel wings dispersed the thick fog in the mountains.

"Roar……"

The white dragons guarding the sides of the chariot bared their fangs and roared like giant dragons.

The white dragon Gemot's eyes turned cold as he looked towards the top of the mountain deep in the fog.

There is a huge nest there, occupying the highest point of the surrounding peaks, like a nest palace on the top of the mountain.

A pair of sharp pupils were hidden under the steel wings that were dozens of meters long, staring closely in the direction of Gmot.

A distance of several thousand meters seems very close to these eyes.

That was the king of the ancient Peng birds, more powerful and more spiritual than those ordinary Peng birds. In the eyes of the white dragon Gemot, this king of Peng birds had already been born with wisdom.

So after the white dragon Gemot showed his fangs, the peng birds in the sky retreated at the cry of the king of peng birds and hid among the high cliffs and ancient trees.

The team continued to move forward, while the white dragon Gemot observed the situation in the mountains.

The God-Forsaken Mountains are a natural chasm that the Golden Empire must cross.

Although sea transportation has its advantages over land transportation, it would be incomplete and unhealthy for a powerful country to only have shipping and transportation via sea routes.

As the Golden Empire was impassable on the north and south sides and surrounded by the sea on the east and west sides, it provided relatively stable conditions for the early development of the Golden Empire, but it also hindered its later development.

If maritime transportation is completely cut off by the enemy under certain extreme circumstances, the Golden Empire will inevitably suffer serious troubles.

The white dragon Gmot came to the God-Forsaken Mountains not only to invite the multi-armed giant Mogyes, but also to personally investigate the situation in the God-Forsaken Mountains.

Regardless of whether Karon Gogmora's plan can be completed, the Golden Empire will take this opportunity to open up land transportation from the God-Forsaken Mountains to the south of the North Continent.

Even a tiger will not allow anyone to sleep soundly beside its bed, let alone the dragons of the Golden Empire?
Thinking of this, Bailong Gemot's eyes turned cold.

He thought of the time when the Gogmora dragons were still young.

At that time, the green dragon Antajena was bewitched by the words of the red dragon Kalon Gogmora, so the green dragon Antajena used the words of the red dragon to bewitch other young dragons.

With the vast grasslands as their dragon pastures and the fertile black soil forests as their dragon farms, the Gogmora dragons will unite together to build a dragon kingdom that rules the sky, the earth, and the sea in this wasteland.

The Golden Empire established by the Gogmora dragons has achieved everything that was said in the past, and it is far better than the kingdom that the young dragons once imagined.

Then, under the will of the dragon, the Golden Empire began to lie dormant, taking root in the earth, and wanted to develop in a low-key manner.

But now, the Golden Empire no longer needs to act low-key. The prestige gained by the ancestral red dragon Kalon Gogmora that night will continue to guide the future direction of the Golden Empire.

So the giant dragons in this team, with their mighty power, marched straight ahead.

The white dragon Gmot has also been investigating the situation. The races in the God-Forsaken Mountains are relatively primitive. Even the gray elves, who were once a branch of the high elves and possessed a mature racial culture, have not exploited resources in the mountains on a large scale to build a civilized country.

It’s not that these gray elves advocate a primitive life, but the conditions here do not allow for it.

It's not just external competition, there's no communication with the outside world. Even if these grey elves have knowledge, they're only slightly better than the rest of the monster races. They're like a more advanced tribe, and don't look like a civilized country at all.

This also increased White Dragon Gemot's enthusiasm for conquering this land many times. The resources in this mountain range can be called an undeveloped treasure trove.

Gmot discovered three large open-pit gold mines.

The magic crystal veins born on the elemental magic nodes are the coveted target of the white dragon Gmot.

They passed through the territories of monster species such as the elephant mastiff, the five-headed ghost, the corpse hound, the wind-winged bird, and the spider-like ape, and there were no unexpected situations.

Because these dragons were just passing by and had no intention of invading or occupying their territory. Moreover, dragons were also top creatures in the material plane.

A giant dragon running rampant in the mountains might soon be killed and become food for other monsters, but a group of giant dragons running rampant were not targets that those monsters could easily provoke.

Especially the five-colored dragons that gather in groups and are not from the blue dragon family. This incredible appearance hides dangers that these monsters are unwilling to easily test.

But when the dragon team arrived at the giant's territory, they discovered the diversity of biological species.

Most giants are born with aversion to the five-colored dragons, which comes not only from the legacy of their Titan ancestor's bloodline, but also from the hostility of powerful high-level predators.

Although a small tribe formed by two hill giants did not dare to block the path of these dragons head-on, they launched their weapons within the tribe, trying to shoot down the flying dragons and white dragons crossing the sky.

So the dragon team stopped, and those bloodthirsty Blood Scale Violent Legion soldiers and more than ten white dragons descended from the sky.

It only took a few quarters of an hour to kill all these stupid hill giants. He hung their ears behind his waist as proof of his military achievement, piled up the bodies and heads of the hill giants into a mausoleum, and offered the enemy heads to the dragon's temple.

These dragons and warriors also erected tablets next to the corpses of the hill giants, stating why these hill giants were slaughtered and by whom, as evidence.

With these bloody examples, many giants no longer blocked the way, but just watched coldly as the dragon team flew towards the center of the mountain range.

However, when the Golden Empire's troops crossed the huge swamp area filled with black fog, they were met with the malice of the Death Giants that lived there.

Because the Death Giants, like the higher giants such as the Cloud Giants and the Sorcerer Giants, are a powerful tribe in the God-Forsaken Mountains.

"Get out, you lowly white dragons, how dare you fly over the Death Giant's territory!"

One after another, the giant death guards rose from the dark swamp covered by countless thick and gnarled ancient trees and vines. They exposed their heads and looked towards the approaching dragon guards in the sky, with naked malice rising in their eyes.

These death giants, who have bound their souls to the negative energy plane in order to have the power to destroy all enemies, not only naturally hate dragons, but also naturally hate all souls with active vitality.

The dragon knights and blood-scale violent legion warriors in the sky cast cold glances, and more than a dozen white dragons began to bare their bloody fangs.

But the head of the roaring Death Giant guard was immediately pressed down by a huge dry hand, and a huge ancient Death Giant emerged from the swamp and nodded slightly at the white dragon Gmot who was looking up at the sky.

Looking at the giant dragon going away, the skinny-looking giant, with bone armor formed by bone flakes growing in the skin on both sides of his cheeks, cursed in dissatisfaction.

The mist of smoke enveloped him, and his voice echoed in the countless faces of people screaming in fear and pain.

"Idiots, you damn idiots, those dragons just want to pass through, they are not here to seize our tribe's territory, why are you stopping them?"

The ancient Death Giant cursed angrily: "The multi-armed giant Mogyes has already eliminated those cloud giants with their heads stuck in their butts. Soon it will be the turn of the witchcraft giants and us death giants."

"Do you want me to face both the megalomaniac multi-armed giant Morgayes and the ferocious red dragon Caron Gogmora at the same time?"

The ancient death giant cursed and said, "Damn it, you want to die, I haven't lived enough."

"If you provoke those crazy dragons, I will run away immediately and let you be torn to pieces by them. Do you think you can stop the empire of that red dragon? You will only be used as a teething stick for the dragon, idiots."

One by one, the angry Death Giants quietly buried their heads in the swamp, leaving only the oldest Death Giant alone to sulk.

As the sun rose high, the giant's royal flag, crudely woven from animal skins, fluttered in the wind. On the flag was a bloody skull simply painted with animal blood.

This is the battle flag of the multi-armed giant Moges.

After the multi-armed giant Moges made up his mind to attack the cloud giant's tribe personally at all costs, the once stalemate in the war was broken by the lives of countless giants.

Next to the fluttering flags, all kinds of gold and silver ornaments and jewels were piled up. They were the accumulation of countless years in the palace of the cloud giants, enough to drown a hill giant.

Even the multi-armed giant Moges, who sat on the ground, seemed half an inch shorter than this mountain of wealth.

The once luxurious and beautiful palace on the top of the mountain has been completely destroyed, with flames and smoke everywhere.

Even several peaks near the Cloud Giant's palace collapsed, showing the scale and intensity of this battle.

There are countless kinds of giants coming and going, with hill giants and stone giants making up the vast majority, and there are also many mutant giants such as wood giants, waste giants, and sand giants.

There are also countless subspecies of giants and enslaved races, including ancient ogres, cave trolls, hobgoblins, and more.

It was difficult to count the flying dragons circling in the sky at a glance. The cloud giants who were forced to surrender were gathering the flying dragons they had once tamed.

Occasionally, a giant dragon would appear in the sky, apparently trapping the flying dragons that were trying to escape.

Mogyes sat on the ground without caring about his image, quietly looking at the torn down palaces. In the giant kingdom he established, only his own palace was allowed to exist.

On the gnarled chest of the multi-armed giant Moges, there was a striking charred scar, with the red muscles turned out, and traces of the death of the charred muscles could be vaguely seen.

But everything is naturally healing under the powerful vitality of the multi-armed giant.

This was the most fierce attack launched by the cloud giant priests at the cost of their own lives, and even the armor made of bones of the Supreme Titan on the multi-armed giant could not withstand such destructive power.

"Ok?"

The multi-armed giant who was resting looked at the giant dragon that was swooping down from the sky and made a soft sound, but it sounded like the sound of a heavy drum.

He repelled the giant dragons and flying dragons that surrounded him, and stood up from the ground, like a mountain rising from the earth.

Although the body of the multi-armed giant was far shorter than the height of the surrounding mountains, his imposing manner made him look much taller than those towering peaks.

"Have the dragons of the Golden Empire been unable to contain their ambitions and want to gain a foothold in the God-Forsaken Mountains?" The multi-armed giant Mogyes looked calmly at the stopped dragon team, and a huge voice rang out.

"If you have such thoughts, then you have to stay here today."

The majestic aura of the multi-armed giant king made the dragon knights and more than a dozen white dragons in the sky instantly feel that even though they were high in the sky, there was still a majestic and difficult to cross mountain blocking their way.

The huge and slender body of the white dragon Gemot swam out from the chariot, just like those nimble snakes.

Gmot spread his wings and landed at the same height as the head of the multi-armed giant Mogyes. Then he spoke: "The Empire has no such intention. Mogyes, the emperor of the Golden Empire, Karon Gogmora heard that you are a powerful and ambitious king, so he asked me to come and visit you."

"And send the invitation letter written by the emperor of the empire himself," a thin book with gold seal appeared on the claws of the white dragon Gemot.

The two heads in front of Mogyes frowned at the same time and took the golden book from the white dragon Gmot's claws, but did not open it. Instead, he asked, "The Emperor of the Golden Empire? What does Kalon Gogmora want to do?"

"One month later, the eight kings will gather on an island in the eastern waters of the North Sea to discuss and form an alliance!" Bailong Gemot said briefly and directly.

But this short sentence made the expressionless face of the multi-armed giant Mogeyes slightly moved. "Eight kings gathered together? Where did the eight kings come from?"

"The King of the Elven Kingdom, the Lord of the Dark Lair, the Underdark, the King of the Dark Elves, the Monarch of the Orc Kingdom, the Emperor of the Hobbes Empire, the King of the Frost Giants, and the King of the God-Forsaken Mountains!"

Bailong Gemot said with a hint of profound meaning.

"And except for you, almost all the other kings have agreed to the meeting at the North Sea Island in a month!" said White Dragon Gemot.

Although several dragon kings of the Golden Empire were still on their way to deliver the invitations, and those kings had not yet agreed, the white dragon Gemot just used a little communication skill.

Mogyes, the multi-armed giant of the God-Forsaken Mountains, could neither verify nor directly deny it.

Because this matter was so earth-shattering, not only the kings of several powerful forces in the Northern Continent participated, but also the kings of the Western Continent. Even the multi-armed giant Moges could not refuse such an alliance.

Because I'm not afraid of ten thousand things, I'm afraid of one thing.

The combination of these forces exerts a power that no one can ignore.

Moreover, the emperor of the Golden Empire will place the alliance outside the empire, at the border with other forces, so that these kings do not need to worry too much about their own danger.

Then the multi-armed giant Moges opened the golden invitation seal in his hand, quickly browsed the information, and then he let out a long sigh.

"I agree to the alliance with your empire. One month later, I, Mogyes, will appear on the island in the eastern sea area."

Mogyes said: "As for the request made by the Golden Empire Emperor Karon Gogmora to release the dragons that I enslaved."

"Go back and tell your emperor that I will bring those dragons over. If we can successfully reach an alliance, I will release those dragons."

"Otherwise, if Kalon Gogmora asked me to release these dragons with just one invitation, wouldn't it make people think that I'm afraid of him?"
