Chapter 359

Tiger chuckled and shrugged. "Luckily, my apprentice and I retired early."

"No, Master, I was forced to retire." General Leon said earnestly.

"Oh, it seems that I, the old man, am still the better one."

Upon hearing this, Rebecca blinked and leaned closer.

"Dad, the captain had already achieved a Grand Slam before he was forced to retire. What about you?"

"... Children shouldn't interrupt when adults are talking!"

After a brief exchange of jokes, Leon continued to analyze the current situation.

"Now that the empire has lost the dragon scales and the Primal Power, it may quiet down for a while and dare not make any big moves. At the same time, it must also be wary of this living father it created coming back to cause trouble for them."

"Having tortured Constantine to that grotesque state, I believe that, given the Dragon Race's vengeful nature, this guy will definitely go back and seek revenge against the Empire."

"Oh, of course, I should also be one of his targets for revenge."

"I just don't know when he'll make his move."

After he finished speaking, everyone fell silent.

Constantine, having gained Primal Power and a more powerful body, is undoubtedly their formidable opponent in the next phase.

Leon wasn't sure if he could defeat him as easily as before.

"I have a guess," Losweiser suddenly said.

The three of them turned to look at the Silver Dragon Queen.

"Although I don't know when Constantine will make his move, I think... he will make thorough preparations before he officially takes action."

"For example?" Leon asked.

"For example... more— Primal Power."

"Constantine has experienced the power of the Primal Power firsthand. Given his style, he will definitely gather more Primal Power before his formal revenge."

"Now that Fael is leading the way, he can easily find the power left behind by Noah in the Far North," Losweiser said.

As a fellow Dragon Race, Losweiser understood how desperate Constantine's thirst for power was.

Moreover, she had practiced Primal Magic for a long time, so she knew better than anyone else present how tempting this power was.

Losweiser believed that Constantine, who had harbored resentment for so long, would stop at nothing to seek the ancient Magic Power hidden beneath the Far North in order to complete his revenge.

Listening to Losweiser's analysis, everyone felt that it made a lot of sense.

"But there's still one problem."

Tiger said, "The Far North is desolate and uninhabited. Only those who want to forge themselves into stronger warriors go there to train. Moreover, it is said that the ice there is extremely thick. How is Constantine supposed to get there to find the Primal Power?"

Tiger is right.

The Far North is one of the most desolate regions on the entire Samael Continent, and no race dares to settle there.

But the most deadly thing is the legendary super-thick ice layer that can block all attacks.

If the Primal Power is buried beneath those ice layers, obtaining it would be incredibly difficult.

Regarding this issue...

Losweiser said slowly,

"In our Dragon Race, there has always been a saying that goes like this: even the Crimson Flame Dragon King, who represents burning flames, cannot melt the ice in the Far North."

"This rumor has been around for years, but even Constantine himself is too lazy to verify it. He probably doesn't want to waste his energy on giving people something to talk about after dinner."

"But the situation is different now."

"Now that he knows that a powerful and ancient force is hidden beneath the ice in the Far North, he will definitely go there."

"Use the most intense flames in the world to burn through the ice and get what he wants."

In fact, Losweiser never believed any rumors; she thought they were just baseless gossip.

However, Grandmother Veronica and Principal Olet's expedition to the Far North proved that the ice in that barren land was not impenetrable.

They initially relied on the spatial magic of Star Wandering Dragon King Ravi;

And now, the fire that Constantine has reignited may well burn through the ice.

Leon guessed Losweiser's thoughts and agreed with her.

"I also think it's very likely that Constantine will go to the Far North to search for the power of Primal Magic. Even if the possibility is small, we have to go and verify it in person."

Tiger nodded in agreement. "Yes, if that crazed, fiery monster were to gain more Primal Power... the consequences would be unimaginable."

Constantine was originally one of the best among the Dragon Kings—

Although he was easily defeated by General Leon back then, it doesn't stop Kang from still being a master among the dwarfs—

Now, after two buffs in the revival rounds and the revenge buff, its strength has far surpassed what it used to be.

If he really manages to acquire more Primal Power, then even Leon wouldn't be confident of defeating him.

After all, during the first resurrection attack on the Red Dragon Sanctuary, even Leon and the Silver and Crimson Kings were somewhat helpless against him. In the end, it was only through the true damage dealt by Losweiser's Primal Magic and Leon's unexpected victory that the crisis was resolved.

"Hmm... it seems I'll have to take a trip to the Far North soon."

Leon said quietly, then paused, scratching his head, looking somewhat troubled, "But I've never been to such a far place before, and I don't know how to get there."

The Queen, who was standing to the side, blinked and said, "I have a way to get to the Far North."

"What method?"

Losweiser smiled mysteriously, "I won't tell you now, I'll tell you when we get home."

"Hey~~ Sister-in-law, is there something you have to say to the captain in private?" Rebecca teased from the side.

Losweiser looked down and reached out to pinch her cheek. "Your captain and I have so many secrets to share."

My sister-in-law is so strange; every time we meet, she's more affectionate and friendly than the last time.

"Since you have a way to get to the Far North, then it's decided. Be extra careful when you get there," Tiger instructed.

"Yes, Master."

After the discussion about Constantine was finished, Rebecca suddenly raised her hand.

"My turn! My turn! Captain, I have some good news for you!"

Yi Lingyi Qi Si Wu Jiu Si (Nine) (8) Leon raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile, "What good news?"

"My father and I have been doing various activities within the empire recently, which have not only kept the royal family busy, but have also garnered support from many like-minded people."

Rebecca said, slightly excited, "They contacted us and offered us some help. Gradually, more and more people joined the resistance against the Empire. The Empire is much more chaotic than before!"

This is indeed good news.

Leon had always believed that the empire was thoroughly corrupt, with very few people daring to stand up and resist. Even if there were, they would probably be too intimidated to stand up against the deeply entrenched rule of the royal family.

I never imagined that so many passionate people would dedicate themselves to this revolution.

This feels pretty good; at least Leon and his master no longer have to fight alone.

"Given the sheer number of people, we've formed an organization to resist the corruption of the Empire. And the organization is named after you, Captain!" Rebecca said proudly.

Upon hearing this, Leon's smile froze instantly, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.

Crazy girl loves to name all sorts of things.

But the fatal flaw is that her talent for naming things is completely inversely proportional to her talent for shooting.

The abstract nature of the "elderly, weak, sick, disabled, and homeless" combination is still vivid in my mind.

Leon couldn't guess what an organization that rebelled against the empire would be called.

So... what is its name?

Lionheart Society!

Oh~~

Thank goodness, Leon breathed a sigh of relief; at least it was better than being an old, weak, sick, or disabled person confined to a house.

"Lionheart Society... Lionheart Society... Eh, is your name original?"

Leon pondered the name for a moment, feeling as if he had heard it somewhere before.

The crazy girl waved her little hand and said, "It doesn't matter if the name is original or not, as long as it sounds cool, that's fine!"

"... So it wasn't your own idea after all, right?"

"What I came up with was [a beautiful girl and her henchmen working together to resist the corrupt Imperial Union Committee]," Rebecca said seriously.

Leon surrendered, "Then Lionheart Society."

"In short, the membership is growing, and they are all elites from various fields, including many of your devoted fans. One beautiful woman even has your name tattooed on her arm—"

Losweiser: →_→

"Ahem, it's all... it's nothing. Anyway, the Lionheart Society growing stronger every day, and sooner or later, we'll work together with you, Captain, to overthrow that dog emperor from the throne!"

Seeing the twin-gun loli's passionate expression, Leon smiled with satisfaction.

He was somewhat emotional, realizing that his original intention was simply to find the traitor who betrayed him, clear his name, and then live a peaceful life with his wife and children.

But there aren't that many things in this world that you can take for granted.

Fate was like an invisible hand, pushing Leon forward from behind.

He already has a wife and children, and a warm bed will come sooner or later, but until then, Leon must not stop.

He patted Rebecca's little head.

"Finding help is fine, but you must have a backup plan. Never trust just anyone, understand?"

"Yes, I know. Dad is very strict about everyone."

Leon looked up at his master.

Tiger nodded. "Don't worry, it'll be fine."

"That's good. Thank you for your hard work."

After the two important matters were handed over, the master and apprentice discussed some minor details and then concluded their meeting.

On the way back, Leon finally asked about it.

"What exactly is that method you mentioned... to get to the Far North?"

"Do you remember what Milan said a few days ago about how everyone thought we were going through a post-marital lull?"

Leon nodded. "I remember. What's wrong?"

"After she finished telling me, she gave me two tickets to an outdoor adventure, saying they were limited editions that she got through connections, and that she wanted us to go and try it out, to find some excitement or something."

Leon blinked and shrugged. "I still don't see what outdoor adventure has to do with the Far North."

"The location for outdoor adventures is... the Far North."

Good heavens, so this was where he was waiting.

Leon scratched his forehead. "You Dragon Race really have no limits to youth. Why do you go on outdoor adventures in the Far North, in some godforsaken place?"

"This isn't some kind of limitless youth, you idiot. Dragon Race are inherently a wild race. The instinct to seek harsher training environments is ingrained in our blood. Your master just said that only those who want to forge themselves into stronger warriors go to the Far North to train, and we—"

"Alright, alright, Your Majesty, every time you praise your Dragon Race, you can write an 800-word essay."

Losweiser gave a smug hum, then quickly changed the subject.

"But there's one thing I don't quite understand."

"What is it?"

"Although Dragon Race will choose harsh training environments in pursuit of power, they wouldn't normally go on adventures in the Far North."

"So?"

"But Milan said this ticket is a limited edition. Are there really that many people who want to go to the Far North and cause trouble?"

Leon pursed his lips. "I don't know much about it either."

"Hmm... I don't understand."
