Chapter 1859
He controlled Yada Sect, which had ancient martial artists as its members.
Thus, he also knew about the incidents involving the beasts.
James' explanation about the animal mutation had slightly convinced him.
However, it was still inappropriate to abdicate the new King.
Zacarius continued. “There are still ten more years, which should be enough time to prepare. Theinternational situation is quite a mess right now. Many new countries have emerged, and theKingdom of Merania has been watching Sol closely. If the current king steps down, Merania willseize the opportunity and cause discord.
“I hope you understand.”
Hearing this, James fell into deep thought.
Dragonville had a vast amount of land, most of which was deep forests. It would be easy to developthese lands and build a new moat and fortress.
“Focus on conquest,”
Zacarius spoke again.
He looked at James and said, “Right now, every country is trying to seize the resources and landsof the countries at our borders. You should return to the Southern Plains and declare Dragonville’sindependence. Form a new country and conquer the small countries on the borders to expand yourcountry’s land.”
James had thought of this before.
The more area he had, the bigger he could build his moat. In the future, it would allow him toaccommodate more people when the apocalypse arrives.
“I’ll provide you with weapons, technology, and people so you can establish your country with ease.It’s time we overthrow the Kingdom of Merania.”
Zacarius smiled ambitiously.
James chuckled. “Alright. Then, we’ll go with your suggestion. However, I’ll need to take theCommander of the Red Flame Army and the Blithe King with me to the Southern Plains.”
Zacarius smiled and said, “I already promised to give you whatever you want. Whoever you need,feel free to take them with you.”
Hearing this, James was relieved.
He turned and left.
After leaving, Josiah asked solemnly, “Mr. Thybaut, should we really let him proceed with hisnonsensical plan?”
Zacarius said helplessly, “We don’t have a choice. James is probably right and I received news thatJames has plans to launch an armed assault to capture the Capital forcibly.
“Although he disappeared for a few years, he still wields terrifying power in the capital.
“The Emperor is his former subordinate.
“The New Era Commerce that controls Sol’s economy was also established by him.
“Not only that, he’s the Dragon King of the Southern Plains and controls the Black Dragon Army ofmillions of soldiers.
“He and the Blithe King are still close friends as well.
“The Centurion of the North, Mr. Walker, is the Emperor’s wife.
“If he tries to take the Capital by force, what means do we have to resist him?”
Zacarius said with resignation.
He was forced to make a choice.
His decision was because he started believing James and wanted to give him a chance to carry outhis plan.
Another reason was to support James in causing trouble.
Sol had always advocated for peace, but if the Southern Plains’ Dragonville declaredindependence, whatever it did in the future would have nothing to do with Sol.
“Are you not worried James might try to conquer Sol after Dragonville grows in power?”
“He probably won’t. If he wanted to become Sol’s king, he would’ve taken the position a few yearsago and not waited till now. What he is saying is pretty well-founded. We can’t just stay idle either.Whatever James does, we should follow suit, whether it be building new moats, fortresses, orstockpiling resources.”
…
James left Peace Mansion.
Many people were gathered in a villa in the Capital.
Blake, the founder of the Dark Castle.
Jake, the boss of the underground intelligence network, also known as the genius doctor ofCansington, Jay.
The Elite Eight of the Southern Plains, who were now essential members of the Dragon Palace,was also present.
In the past few years, the Dragon Palace grew rapidly and became one of the greatest forces in theworld.
“James.”
“Dragon King, you’re finally here!”
As soon as James walked into the villa, everyone got to their feet.
May was the first to walk over. She beamed with a charming smile and asked, “James’ what’s thereason you called us to the Capital this time?”novelbin
Blake also smiled at James, saying, “I’ve been keeping busy all this time and have managed tobecome a third-ranked grandmaster.”
James smiled and said, “I’ve called everyone here because of an important matter.”
