Chapter 236 The final confession
"Everything is finally arranged. Can I sleep now?"

"What else is going on?"

Cassius yawned again and sorted out the complicated matters in his mind, but he was a lazy and sleepy red dragon after all, and he almost fell asleep again while thinking.

However, for the red dragon lords whose minds are usually filled with muscles and magma, Cassius can definitely be considered as the "diligent" one. Even in the period of the ancient dragon rule, he can be called a so-called wise king.

Because as one who knows the future, he has a sense of urgency that is completely different from other dragons.

Most dragons sleep till dawn and dusk for dozens or hundreds of years. When they wake up, the ministers around them have been replaced once or even several times - after all, their lives are short, and most of them have died of old age during this long time.

"boom!"

A puff of black smoke blew out of Cassius' nostrils, and he used his claws to hold up the huge head that was about to fall and close its eyes.

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot about the devil."

The red dragon rubbed his sleepy eyes and talked to himself.

You should know that this is the main quest "Winter's Fury" of the previous life version of [Northern Storm].

Under the leadership of Cassius, the original "Fury of the Mountains" and "Demon Dragon", thousands of demons emerged from the depths of the mountains and invaded the Anzeta Wasteland, wantonly slaughtering all life wherever they went. All the countries in the north will unite and fight against the invasion of the abyss demons together with the players.

However, under Cassius's magical changes, the current situation in the North is completely different. All countries seem to be trembling under the wings of the red dragon, vaguely wanting to unite.

But there was one thing he was very sure of - the invasion of demons was inevitable.

This is why he plans to quickly unify the North in four years. Only by unifying the Northern Kingdom and integrating most of Anzeta's power can he fight against the endless tide of abyss demons.

Thinking of this, Cassius ordered:
"Call Alger over here quickly."

The red dragon's tone was very impatient, because he was only thinking about going to bed early, and even his dragon instinct was urging him.

The spell expedited Cassius's orders.

Soon, a loud eagle cry was heard outside the palace - it was Alger riding the Dragon Vein Giant Eagle.

According to the etiquette established by the ministers of the kingdom, they will land outside the palace, enter the gate after a series of steps such as confirming their identity and making announcements, and then walk several miles on the wide road before finally entering the main hall where the red dragon lives.

But Cassius obviously no longer had the patience to "show his majesty" and urged directly from a distance:
"Just go into the palace and don't waste time outside."

Hearing the red dragon's personal order, the tiefling guards on the city wall opened the gates one after another, and the wyverns on the stone pillars lowered their heads and stopped roaring and howling.

Alger flew into the palace unhindered.

In just a few breaths, Alger, riding on the giant eagle, landed lightly in front of the main hall.

Alger turned over and jumped down, saying towards the palace door.

"Master, I'm here."

"come in."

The heavy metal door with a ferocious dragon head carved on it slowly opened.

Alger walked steadily into the hall, and the dragon-veined giant eagle understood what he was telling him to do and waited obediently outside.

He half-knelt in front of the steps and said respectfully:
"I beg your pardon, Master, I am a little late."

As the players left, Alger's Red Scale Garrison became much quieter. After all, the requirements to become a Red Scale Conqueror were too high, so even now, there were only a few Red Scale Conquerors among the natives, and he was almost left alone - and previously he had nearly twenty players under his command.

But after his great revenge, he no longer had much desire for power, but was content with a leisurely life.

"Alger, after the Falling Stars left, how many Red Scale Conquerors are left in the garrison?"

Alger replied, "I'm sorry for my incompetence. There are four of us, including me."

Cassius shook his head and said, "Not enough, far from enough."

"The development of the Red Scale Conquerors cannot rely solely on those Starfallers. You need to cultivate more new forces."

Alger lowered his head and smiled bitterly: "Master, the training of this kind of cavalry takes years, and the requirements are extremely high and the cost is also very high. I can only do my best."

Cassius said, "I will provide you with sufficient funds. And considering the current size of the kingdom, I don't believe that we can't find a hundred dragon knights among hundreds of thousands of people."

Alger had no choice but to say, "Yes, Master."

Cassius asked again, "What have you found on your recent patrols?"

Alger thought for a moment and responded, "There has been very little movement from the Principality of Bosk recently. Half a year ago, we could still see their cavalry running around near our border, but now we can hardly see them anymore. Not to mention the other countries in the North. It seems that your great power has intimidated them."

"Very good, just as I expected."

Cassius paused.

"However, you still have a difficult mission to perform - patrol the Anstika Mountains and search for all traces of demons for me."

The Red Dragon's words carried a commanding tone that left no room for negotiation.

Alger quickly half-knelt on the ground and said, "Yes."

After hesitating for a moment, he cautiously reminded: "But the Kingdom does not border the Anstica Mountains. We may have to pass through the territory of the Principality of Bosk. I am afraid that it will cause unnecessary national disputes."

The red dragon replied calmly:

"I have informed Trump of this order in advance, and he will cooperate. I will ask him to give you the right to use the dimensional gate. After confirming the specific coordinates, you can use magic to travel back and forth."

"Even if the spell cannot be performed normally, the kingdom can still ask for military access to the Principality of Bosk. They still owe us a lot of money. We just need to mortgage some of the debts. You can rest assured about this."

There was a fiery glow in Cassius's golden eyes.

"But your mission this time is extremely important. It concerns the future of the kingdom and even the entire North. You must complete it successfully. Once you discover any information about the demon, you must report it to the kingdom's top leaders immediately."

After hearing this, Alger also realized the seriousness of the matter and did not raise any unnecessary questions, which would only annoy the red dragon.

He answered bluntly:
"Yes, Master, I will complete the task."

With the loud eagle cry, Alger flew away on the giant eagle.

Looking at the Giant Eagle Knight going away, Cassius couldn't help but yawn, exhaled a hot breath, and muttered to himself:

"Tsk, I can finally get a good night's sleep."
