Bernardo, Red Emperor Royal City.
Dragon Court is the tallest building in the entire royal city. The whole building is like a huge column, towering into the clouds and reaching the sky. The highest point is already submerged in the sea of clouds. The people of the royal city often need to look up, but they still cannot see Summit of the Dragon Court.
At the same time.
Red Iron Dragon stands at the highest point of Dragon Court.
The sun poured down, coating his mirror-like dragon scales with a golden outline, which also reflected the floating clouds in the sky.
He was currently standing on the edge, looking down at the territory extending beneath his feet.
The other side, the side.
Iron Dragon Sorog lowered his head slightly and reported to him the preliminary situation of the first Great Expedition.
"The expedition against the one star Material World, codenamed [Goblin Continent], has begun."
"Russell led the elite of War Wolves and captured a Goblin Kingdoms with lightning speed. Now they are gathering results. However, this lightning victory also attracted the attention of all parties in the world, especially the dominant Goblin Kingdoms."
"Goblins from several nearby kingdoms have begun to assemble their troops, and a joint counterattack seems to be brewing."
"In addition, our follow-up troops are still stationed.
From the landing to the destruction of the city, it only took a few days.
Although Goblins were numerous in number, while War Wolves only had thousands of units, but in the face of War Wolves's crusade, Goblin Kingdoms, which was closest to them, did not form effective resistance at all. The defense line was instantly torn apart and fell in a short time.
Russell Those brought over in the first wave are all the best among the best, and they have experienced hundreds of battles. They are a group of veterans of many battles.
In addition, each of these pioneers are fully armed and well-equipped. The Alchemical Armor and weapons on them are the latest products of the imperial military industry system, allowing them to exert more powerful power.
The quality gap is too big.
It can no longer be compensated by sheer quantity alone.
As for the subsequent coalition counterattack, it is actually not a big problem.
After all, as long as these green-skinned little things cannot capture the Aura position and destroy the portal in the shortest possible time, with the arrival of more War Wolves, their chances of winning will only become slimmer and slimmer.
It won't be long.
Goblinss have to face more than just thousands of elite soldiers.
The real legions are gradually arriving.
"Goblin Continent----"
Garos thought for a while and asked, "Did you encounter any troubles and obstacles in the process of capturing the kingdom here?"
"No."
Sorog shook his head and said in a steady voice, "According to the battle reports from the front line, from beginning to end, War Wolves did not offer any resistance worth mentioning. Although there are Legendary Realm units on the opposite side, they are completely unable to compete with the Legendary Realm in War Wolves."
"At the end of the day, this is just a simple one-star Material Plane."
"At the current rate of capture, it won't take us too long to fully capture it."
There is a huge gap between the Legendary Realm and Legendary Realm, even when Life Level is the same.
Goblins?
This naturally low-level Magic Creature relies on some special mutations to encounter Legendary Realm, but this does not mean how powerful they are. Aura's Legendary Realm units are much more powerful than them, and their armors and weapons are also Legendary Realm's weapons.
It's simply a dimensionality reduction blow.
However, Garos did not show any signs of relaxation.
"Sorog, you have to remember."
"In the final analysis, this star rating is just a judgment we make based on the information we have. Our information is not complete and omissions cannot be avoided. Therefore, it does not represent the truth and may have some limitations."
"Who knows if there are any sleeping old monsters hidden in this so-called one-star world?"
"There is no decent record of a guy like Ten Thousand Ominous Manifestations before arriving at Bernardo."
"So, don't be too optimistic and don't rush for success."
He said seriously.
Material Plane, on the one hand, the real strong people are not willing to live here and will go to Outer Planes, but on the other hand, all the old guys who live in Material Plane must have their own unique skills and cannot be underestimated.
Primordial Wild God, God-Abomination----
There are a lot of evil things hidden in Material Plane, and you never know which one you will encounter.
Ten Thousand Ominous Manifestations is the best example.
When encountering such an ancient existence, Garos is still not completely sure that he can defeat it without Ascension to Godhood.
"I understand."
Sorog nodded solemnly. "In fact, after the initial capture of a kingdom, the War Wolvess have stopped expanding, and instead focus on consolidating their territory, building strongholds, and welcoming follow-up troops."
"The blade of the legion was put back into its sheath first."
"We will not consider the next move until our portal is completely stabilized and more troops arrive."
Great Expedition already has a basic process.
For example, first secretly teleport scouts to detect intelligence information, then build a simple teleportation gate, dispatch an elite force, and then quickly expand the teleportation gate to allow a large-scale legion to arrive----
However, this is only one of the processes.
According to different world conditions, it is also possible to first release Legendary Realm elites to secretly create or control some forces, and then secretly build portals to coordinate internally and externally----
"Very good."
"However, apart from this one-star Goblins world, are there any other Material Planes on the list that deserve attention? I mean, the more difficult ones, such as four-star or five-star types?"
Garos asked.
Frankly speaking, although this one-star world representing Goblin Continent is very suitable as the target of the first expedition, Garos does not have much interest in it.
Not even a Immortal Realm.
For Garos, this kind of world can't even talk about frying fish, and it can't arouse interest. With his current level of strength, his opponent must at least be Immortal Realm to have any meaning in fighting, or he can just play to torture people.
Iron Dragon thought for a while and said, "Yes."
"For example, Material Plane, codenamed Great Tomb, is at least four stars, and is suspected to be five stars. For this kind of world, it is tentatively rated as four stars and ten."
Garos narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Great Tomb? Interesting name."
he said.
Iron Dragon nodded and said, "In this Material World, there are three powerful empires, two of which are dominated by humans and Dwarf respectively, and the third one requires the former two to join forces to compete, one Undead Empire."
"Three major empires exist at the same time, and there are many Immortal Life in this world."
"Furthermore, according to reliable information, the king of the Undead Empire has been sleeping deep in Great Tomb and has never really appeared. His followers have already forced the other two empires to unite to resist."
"As for the actual strength of Undead King, there is no reliable information to describe it yet."
Similar to the era before Bernardo, three empires coexisted.
The difference is that the situation of these three empires is that one is stronger than the other two, and this is even when the monarch of the Undead Empire has not shown up. This also means that if this so-called undead monarch really exists and once he wakes up, the resistance of the other two empires will collapse.
However, if he keeps sleeping, it means that the monarch may have some problems himself and is not free enough.
"Oh?"
Red Iron Dragon's eyes lit up slightly.
"The undead monarch who can make many Immortal Realm undead follow him——among Immortal One, he is probably considered a strong one."
He became somewhat interested.
After thinking about it, Red Iron Dragon said, "Increase the investment in scouts for this four-star Material Plane, find out more information, and select Material World, codenamed Great Tomb, as our next target."
These words made Iron Dragon a little confused.
Because Garos said before that he should act steadily and step by step, but now he is directly eyeing a four-star, suspected five-star target.
Sorog asked, "Don't you do it step by step?"
"For example, start with two-star or three-star worlds and proceed step by step? Moreover, these low-star Material Plane in our evaluation standards have low stars, which does not necessarily mean that their resources are poor, but that they have not been properly utilized and developed. The products of some worlds are actually very rich."
The star rating is low, but the civilization level above is low and the force value is low.
This does not mean that such Material Plane lacks resources and has low value. The value of some low-star worlds may be higher than that of high-star worlds, and the probability of this is not low.
The level of civilization and the abundance of resources.
There is no necessary correspondence between the two.
Just like Bernardo.
Many resources on this planet were developed after the complete unification of Sacred Aura. Today's Bernardo is more than one level more powerful than the era when Garos was first born.
"Concrete analysis of specific situations."
Red Iron Dragon said seriously, "Resources and territory are still secondary in my eyes. It doesn't need to be rich, as long as it is enough for us to use."
"The key is that this Great Expedition journey is also a challenging journey for me."
Red Iron Dragon's voice paused slightly.
He stared at the distant skyline and said, "Material Plane is unlike other planes. The environment and rules here are relatively stable, and there are not many Immortal Realm. If you stay here, the probability of encountering enemies at the same level as me is very low."
"But, I can't just immerse myself in training."
"Working behind closed doors cannot temper your true edge."
"Occasionally, I need the enemy's blade to polish my scales and claws."
"Great Tomb, Undead Empire, and the sleeping undead monarch----I hope they will not disappoint me when the time comes."
Garos Today's comfort zone is to stay Neutron Star and immerse yourself in exercise.
However, although pure exercise can make him stronger day after day, without the catalysis of some high-intensity battles, his growth efficiency will only gradually decrease as time goes by.
Swords will rust if left unused for a long time.
Moreover, beings like Garos with Evolution Divine Power often feel in their hearts that the meaning of life lies in change. If it remains completely unchanged, it will not be much different from death to them.
He needs some stimulation and needs to face different types of enemies in different environments.
In this way, you can keep your own evolutionary path alive.
"I know what you mean."
"In this case, Great Expedition doesn't need to conquer worlds one by one."
Sorog said, "Just like Goblin Continent, who is on our expedition right now."
"If nothing unexpected happens, the War Wolves army alone will be enough to sweep them away."
"After occupying it, go through some cultural and ideological transformation, elect a world lord, leave a military governor to maintain order, and incorporate it into the empire's territory, that's almost it."
In addition to material advancement.
Sacred Aura is also very experienced in the transformation and optimization of ideological and cultural aspects, and this experience will not be ineffective just because the target is other Material World.
After all, the psychological needs of intelligent life are the same no matter where they are.
"We can definitely wage war against multiple Material World at the same time. For example, select one High-Star Material Plane as the main target, and at the same time, conquer some low-star Material Plane."
"This not only ensures your needs, but also allows the empire to expand rapidly."
Iron Dragon's mind was very active and he spoke seriously.
Hearing this, Garos pondered, "Such an expedition is more efficient, but the drawbacks are also obvious. The empire's power will gradually be dispersed and diluted——"
"If a high-star world requires us to invest a lot of time and effort, the situation is deadlocked, and problems arise in a low-star world, we will face a situation where we lose sight of the other."
Having said this, Julong changed his subject slightly.
"However, this is not a big problem."
"It is inevitable to disperse our forces. As we conquer more and more worlds through expeditions, the vast Material Plane needs to spread its power. Moreover, a single spark can start a prairie fire."
"As the number of worlds under our command increases, we can also have more sources of troops and products."
"Conquest feeds conquest, and war feeds war. This is a dynamic process."
Sorog looked at Red Iron Dragon and asked, "Then what do you mean----"
Garos smiled slightly and said, "Approval of your idea, we will focus on attacking high-star worlds, and at the same time cast a net on low-star worlds to fully bloom. However, to implement such a plan, the intelligence work must be in place, otherwise we may be dragged into the quagmire."
Iron Dragon nodded heavily. "Of course, I know what to do."
Then, Garos seemed to have remembered something and asked, "How is Ignas doing with us?"
He didn't have time to stay with the red dragon, so he handed him over to his blood relatives.
"Samantha had a great time chatting with this red dragon."
Sorog replied, "Samantha took him to many places and told him some of our journey. Moreover, he was very calm and did not cause any trouble."
"I have to say, this red dragon actually abides by the rules."
"He gives me the feeling that he is much more rational than Samantha."
Then you have never seen the other side of Ignas----
Garos thought to himself.
In front of Sorog, Samantha and other blood heirs who do not yet have Immortal Realm, Immortal Realm Red Dragon did not reveal his true side and acted like a respectable elder.
"This is only temporary."
Red Iron Dragon shook his head and said, "This red dragon is still a little manic in nature, and his mental state is not stable. He is just here for the first time and has calmed down a lot, but if he stays in Bernardo for a long time and has nothing to do, sooner or later it will cause a lot of trouble."
"So, find something for him to do."
"He has already promised and is willing to contribute to Great Expedition."
All we want from the alliance with the Red Dragon is to let him contribute some strength.
It would be such a waste to leave it idle.
Sorog thought for a while and said in deep thought, "Although Immortal Realm does not exist in the Goblins world, those green-skinned guys do have gods' beliefs, and all Goblin Kingdoms's beliefs are the same. There may be gods watching behind them."
"If we continue to expand and occupy, the gods behind these guys may not be able to hold back."
"In this case, it's best to have a Immortal Realm keep an eye on you, just in case.
17
The name of the god that Goblins believe in is Goblin God, and he also has some titles such as the Green-skinned Lord.
In addition.
In the genealogy of the gods recorded in Dragon Inheritance, there is no information about this god.
This means that the level of his gods will not be very high.
There is a high probability that it is just a Lesser Deity, and it is not popular, and there is no weak god like Pantheon behind it. There are many gods like this in Multiverse, and most of them guard one or several specific races or regions, and their influence is limited.
"Let Ignas go."
"Also, let Samantha come with us. I promised her before that after Great Expedition starts, she can enjoy the flames and blood to her heart's content."
Garos said.
"I understand."
"This one-star world is just right for her to run wild."
Iron Dragon Sorog said.
Red Dragon Samantha, her main focus is Alchemy, and she has very rich knowledge and experience in this area, and can even be said to be profound. She also participated in the construction of Satellite and Cloud Rail.
If we only talk about Alchemy, Garos and Sorog combined are not as powerful as her.
However, Red Dragon has no self-consciousness about being a Alchemist. She just wants to have fun fighting, and she also feels that wearing armor made of Garos scales is enough to support her in running rampant on the battlefield and experiencing the feeling of fighting.
Having said this, Red Iron Dragon stretched its wings.
"Sorog, my dear brother."
"During this period, Sacred Aura and Great Expedition will be left to you."
"I'm going to go to Faerûn to see Dragon Breath Kingdom of Galkro and Laria. By the way, I'll feel how deep the water in this continental world is."
There are actually quite a few Immortal Realm under Sacred Aura.
Now there is another red dragon ally.
There is no need for him to do anything about Great Expedition himself.
Many times, Immortal One under his command is enough to solve the problem. If it is time for him to take action, either he has some interest, or Sacred Aura has reached a very critical and urgent moment.
So, Garos is ready to set off for a trip to Faerûn.
"Faerûn----"
Iron Dragon's expression condensed slightly and he said, "This world is indeed extraordinary. There are many gods, religions are everywhere, faith relationships are very complicated, and there is also a powerful magic empire----"
"You might as well go there yourself."
"Galkro The information they sent back is limited after all, and some details are vague."
"As for Sacred Aura and Great Expedition, when I need you, I will naturally notify you as soon as possible."
Garos nodded and said no more.
The dragon claw stretched out and tore forward, a gap opened in the space, Red Iron Dragon stepped in, and the figure disappeared over the royal city.
The next moment.
Raging Tide Dragon Realm.
The sea breeze is howling, the waves are rolling, lapping at the rocks, and islands are dotted here and there.
Above Dragon Realm, when Red Iron Dragon comes out of Space Rift.
On a beach on the Dragon Realm island, Red-Silver Dragon Deborah was already waiting here. She smiled slightly at Red Iron Dragon and said, "It's been arranged. Let's set off and enjoy the scenery of other Material World."
She is looking forward to this trip.
Red Iron Dragon smiled slightly and said, "Well, you can go."
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
"And me, and me."
"I knew you were going out to play, so take me with you!"
With a whoosh, Fairy Dragon jumped out from behind a rock with waving wings, stopped in front of the two dragons, and said wildly, "If you don't take me with you, I promise, I will chase after you every day from now on, and whisper this matter in your ears, so that you will grow calluses in your ears."
Garos said without changing his expression, "Your threats are like coquettishness."
Fairy Dragon's face fell.
On the other side, Red-Silver Dragon waved his hand at Vera and said with a slight smile, "It's okay to act coquettishly. Come on, our journey will be more lively with you here."
Fairy Dragon's face was overjoyed.
"Okay, okay, I know you haven't forgotten the past and won't abandon me."
She said excitedly, quickly flew behind Red-Silver Dragon, and then, as before, grabbed some tiny thorns on Red-Silver Dragon's body, and hid herself between Red-Silver Dragon's dragon scales and thorns.
"Let's go! I can't wait!"
She shouted and urged.
Garos and Red-Silver Dragon looked at each other, and then tore the space apart again. The three of them traveled back and forth and disappeared from Bernardo Planet.
