Zane towers over Throne.

Her body is full of scars and she doesn't want to be made public, so she is still in human form. One hand is holding her cheek, and the other is hanging outside the armrest, playing with a crystal clear keel.

"I once heard a story about a human king who used the sword he used to defeat his opponent to make a chair, called Iron Throne. It's a good idea, but it's a pity that if those swords were all mortal things, they wouldn't be worth boasting about."

Zane's voice was light and gentle. "Why don't we use the bones of legends to build the throne? I think this sternum is very good. What do you think?"

"My mother's record is outstanding, and her reputation will spread throughout Red Earth."

Ferrum who came to see me answered.

"Okay."

Zane smiled softly, "The same words, if you say them, will please me even more. What do you want to say when you come here so late?"

"Visiting the leader's injury."

Ferrum said, "I wonder when it will be cured?"

"At least three months."

Zane did not hesitate and said bluntly, "Sylvia's spouse and guard caused me a lot of trouble, which allowed that guy to successfully cast the spell. The poison and curse of the legendary Green Dragon are difficult to get rid of in a short time."

"The war may be over soon. It seems that my mother will no longer be able to participate in the war."

Ferrum said.

"I have done everything I can, as for the next battle..."

Zane exhaled plumes of black smoke. "I believe Taigo."

"According to our agreement, if you win the Gray Sand River battle for me, then the previous score will be settled."

She said, "You performed very well in Battlefield. Since you call me mother, I won't be harsh. From now on, the sixth Warband will be yours. Their leader is very talented and deserves to be cultivated."

"Gago."

Ferrum remembered the name of the leader Gnoll and thought for a moment, "Shouldn't all Warband who have the sequence belong to the family?"

"That's true in name, but all Gnoll are loyal to me."

Zane said, "As long as you can conquer their hearts and afford their supplies, this army will belong to you. They can even multiply into a new clan in your hands. Ferrum My child, how about this gift?"

"Very good."

Ferrum paused and said bluntly, "But besides that, I also want Nether Iron."

"This makes me confused."

Zane raised an eyebrow. "I wiped out the past and gave you a Warband as a reward, which is generous enough, but you are still not satisfied and ask for the most precious thing. It seems that you don't respect me in your heart. You think you can take my things away at will?"

By the end of the sentence, her tone had turned cold and inexplicably moody.

"Since the previous matter has been wiped out, I still call myself mother, of course for Nether Iron."

Ferrum does not have much fear. "The crisis is close at hand, and I am eager to strengthen my strength."

"Nothing in this world comes without hard work. Valyria, Leighton, they trained you in the hope that one day they can use your power. The purpose is clear, but they are just wrapped in a coat called warmth."

Zane said, "And I don't bother to make such a disguise, Ferrum, if you ask me for Nether Iron, what return can you bring to me?"

"I thought we had discussed this matter before." Ferrum said.

Zane was silent for a while, then patted Throne's handrail. "Archaic Species, come here."

Ferrum followed the instructions and approached.

Zane reached out and held down his head, forcing Ferrum to lower his head, caressing his head, horns and neck with some strength, narrowing his eyes slightly but not speaking.

She enjoyed this feeling very much. If it was the era when Supreme still existed, Archaic Species would almost certainly become Divine Chosen, the core of a family or even a Dragon Kingdom. It was nobler than any dragon, but now it was crawling beside her obediently, like a docile kitten.

The feeling of controlling the noble Archaic Species is almost more satisfying than hunting the legendary Green Dragon.

Ferrum looked at Zane who closed her eyes. When she saw the powerful female dragon, she had to first observe her eyes. If her attention fell elsewhere, then she could observe her body.

Zane suddenly felt a stinging pain on his body and turned around. Ferrum had already looked away.

"I once told you that Nether Iron is the treasure I use to forge weapons. Since you are still determined to ask for it, you must have the consciousness to use it as my weapon."

Zane said, "In exchange, I want your loyalty, not only the verbal title, but also the wholehearted and unreserved loyalty. From now on, you will be my blade, and it only belongs to me, Ferrum·Solaxus, can you do it?"

"As long as it doesn't harm our family." Ferrum said.

Zane smiled coldly, "It seems they have trained a leader."

She didn't hesitate on this matter. Since Ferrum had agreed, she took out a piece of Nether Iron and said, "Eat it, eat it in front of me."

Come again...

Ferrum bared his teeth slightly. Valyria also said something similar back then. Great Dragon seemed to like seeing their descendants eating in front of them, which was probably some manifestation of dragons' desire for control.

He did not hesitate and swallowed Nether Iron directly, activating the talent Consume Gold, Absorb Iron.

Severe pain hit one after another, spreading through the bones and internal organs. Bone Growth's ability went riot, and the sharp bone stubble continuously pierced the surface and was quickly retracted.

Ferrum pressed his claws to the ground hard and let out an uncontrollable growl.

Zane looked down at this scene with a thoughtful expression.

Wilds, Storm Family, Blue Dragon assembly.

"Although we have forged the sword, if you want to wield it, you still have to pay a lot of money, and it can only be used once."

Julian Deville concluded. "If we can win by war, I don't want to use it easily."

"In the ten thousand years of fighting between Chromatic Dragon and Heavy-Metal Dragon, Chromatic Dragon is the final winner, and we will eventually win the war."

A Adult Dragon said in a deep voice.

The meeting has come to an end. They talked about the placement of the Emerald Family and Bloodridge Tribes, and also redeployed new strategies and tactics.

"Yuge."

Divine Chosen looked at Juvenile Dragon below. "You finally faced Ladon for a while, how did you feel?"

"I..."

Among the Juvenile Dragon present, only Yuge is qualified to rank with Great Dragon. He hesitated for a while, and finally decided to confess. "It feels very tricky. If we fight to the end, I may not be my opponent."

"Trash."

His father Kelangemo said sternly, "Juvenile Dragon played against Hatchling Dragon, but he said he was no match."

"Nothing."

Divine Chosen didn't take it seriously, shook his head and said, "There are only two names in Divine Edict, one is Taigo, the other is Ladon. Since it is the target named by the Dragon Queen, it is certainly an enemy worthy of respect. Yuge is difficult to win for a while, not because he is incompetent, Boyas--"

"Here." Young Blue Dragon said.

"In the next war, you will hunt Ladon, can you do it?"

"Hatchling Dragon."

Boyas smiled coldly, "If he fights against me, if he can survive for more than half a quarter of an hour, please Divine Chosen cut out my heart to avenge his shame."

"This..."

Yuge is slightly reluctant. Archaic Species's head is an extremely precious prize for any Chromatic Dragon, and can be exchanged for blessings from the Dragon Queen.

But he has missed this opportunity and can no longer compete with Great Dragons.

"Yuge, how many people have you killed this time?" Divine Chosen looked at him again.

"About three hundred people."

Yuge thought about it and said, "There is also one Chrome Dragon and one Glow Dragon."

"Not enough."

Divine Chosen shook his head and said, "If you want to become Archaic Species and master the abilities of Rampage, you must know how to release the beast in your blood and Bloodline Refinement through constant killing. Three hundred people are not enough, and two Hatchling Dragon are not enough."

"You are only one step away from being promoted. Now is the perfect opportunity. It is rare for a group of dragons to fight to the death with the descendants of the natural disaster, allowing you to kill them happily. You should feel excited, even ecstatic, turning their bones into a ladder for you to reach the top."

Yuge's eyes flashed. "I... understand."

"Our tribe must hatch more powerful ones, because new opponents are about to appear. After exterminating Heavy-Metal Dragon, Exotic Dragon is our next target."

Divine Chosen whispered the family's ancient motto, "The storm is coming."

"The storm is coming."

Blue Dragon people stood up one after another, preparing to end the rally.

"The Duskborns of the Western Continent are about to arrive, Lareno are going to greet them."

Divine Chosen gave a new order and turned to leave, "In addition, send a messenger to Ash Fortress, let us see how much fighting spirit Ashmark Lineage still has."
