Red Dragon Emperor

Bottomless abyss, bloody battlefield, devil city - Bagratto.

Bagreto was founded four thousand years ago. The newly minted demigod devil, Bagreto, seized the city from the demons, built the city on the basis of the devil city, and named the city after himself - Bagreto , meaning the glory of Bagheri.

What few people know is that Bagri was born in Teldanor and was transformed from the soul of a great elf noble.

"Quack, quack~," sitting on the throne in the city lord's hall, the demigod devil Bagray laughed triumphantly while playing with the crystal in his hand.

This is an eight-sided pyramid crystal. The crystal is crystal clear and shines brighter than diamonds. However, the crystal itself is just a container, and its value is far less than the soul imprisoned in it. It is a demigod soul, and the soul is making a silent sound. The roar, anger, anxiety, fear, and the power of emotions make the devil feel happy.

"Old friend, you finally fell into my hands, quack quack~"

"You will become my proud collection, imprisoned in the eternal darkness. Don't worry, I will take good care of you. You are very valuable. One day, I will need you."

The devil nervously muttered to the soul in the crystal: "No, I should put you next to the pillow, so that I can hear your incompetent roar at any time."

"Well, maybe I should put you on the fire of the underworld and let your soul ferment in fear and pain. Oh, how wonderful~"

"Yes! Just do it like this, put it in the hall..."

One more evil idea than the last came out of the devil's mouth, and the maid on the side shivered in fear.

Suddenly, Bagray frowned: "What does this annoying guy want from me now?"

"Damn it, he always bullies me because of His Majesty's favor. One day, I will take his place."

Cursing viciously in his heart, the devil waved his hand, and another devil's projection appeared in the air in front of him, which was Mal'Ganis who had left Tydanor.

Bagray immediately put on a warm smile and said hello: "Hi! Old friend! No contact for a long time! Do you miss me?!"

"Bagre, put away your hypocrisy, I won't do this," Mal'Ganis said in a low voice.

"The target appears."

"Target?" Bagray's face was serious,

He is also a participant in the competition and knows the inside story of Tedanore.

If they lose this competition, the Lord of the Nine Hells will have to peel off the skins of their group, extract their souls, and place them on the Nether Fire to undergo eternal torture.

"who is it?"

"That red dragon."

Malganis continued: "Now, that red dragon has occupied Duanxia City. Find a way to get rid of him. I will ask your Majesty for your credit."

"Why don't you go by yourself?" Bagray raised an eyebrow and looked at his "old friend" suspiciously.

He would not be so naive as to think that his "old friend" would really be kind to him. Such a naive person would not survive to become a demigod in the devil society.

"Hmph!" Malganis snorted dissatisfiedly.

"Put away your petty thoughts, I have a more worthy target, you idiot!"

Bagray didn't care about being insulted. He cared more about the real face than the illusory face.

With a thought, he thought clearly that the only target more valuable than the red dragon was the mermaid.

Mal'Ganis wanted to concentrate on dealing with the mermaids, so it made sense to leave the red dragon to him.

At this thought, the smile on his face became even brighter: "Hahaha, then it's settled, the red dragon belongs to me."

Mal'Ganis ended the call with his companions, a contemptuous smile on his face.

"Although the red dragon's strength is inferior to that of the Mermaid Emperor, it is not necessarily easier to deal with than her." He recalled the brief exchange with the red dragon on the Titanor plane, especially the one that had no loopholes and was enough to become a devil. Textbook Contract.

"That's fine, let that idiot Bagry try his quality first."

………………

Duanxia City.

Now it should be called Longteng City.

Due to the invasion of the demon army and the complete fall of Longteng City, the living area, commercial area, and sergeant area in the city were severely damaged, and most of the buildings were in ruins.

How can a city lack decent houses?

Jose summoned a group of skilled craftsmen from Tedanor, and also summoned a large number of spellcasters. Professionals designed the drawings, and the wizards commanded the puppets to execute the plan. The reconstruction work was in full swing.

The red dragon was sitting in the center, discussing with the Goblin alchemist master Bulger Hurricane, discussing the reconstruction of the magic circle in Dragon City.

It is not only reconstruction, but also transformation and upgrading on the original basis to make Longteng City's defense impregnable.

"Your Majesty, I think we can add an early warning function to the city wall..."

"These city walls can be made of magic obsidian bricks, a specialty of the empire. Obsidian bricks happen to have good fire resistance, and demons are very good at fire magic."

"..."

Discussion is ongoing.

"@#￥%...\u0026*!" There was a noise outside, with insults and quarrels coming from the noise.

A clear dragon roar sounded, and then everything fell silent. This was the legendary green dragon - Grace suppressed the dispute with her strength.

Jose frowned slightly, turned to the Dragon Tooth Soldier guard on the side, and ordered: "Go and see what's going on."

"As ordered," Longya Soldier walked out.

After a while, the Dragon Tooth Soldier came back with the legendary green dragon and a human with a bruised nose and face.

Although this human being has the strength of a high-level warrior, he is white, fat, and wears fancy clothes. He does not look like an adventurer who licks blood with his sword, but like a businessman.

"Your Majesty, this businessman had a dispute with our people."

He is indeed a businessman.

Jose glanced at the scars on the businessman's face and said, "What did you commit?"

"Lord Dragon, I...I..." The businessman looked at the red dragon, his hands trembling, and he was so frightened that he couldn't speak clearly.

"Forget it, it's up to you to speak," Jose turned to the legendary green dragon.

"Your Majesty, the thing is like this. Our people followed your order to clean up the ruins of the city and search for valuable items, but this businessman prevented our people from collecting the loot, saying that the shop was his private property."

"So that's it," Jose nodded understandingly and looked at the fat businessman.

The legendary warrior Kadi once promised to give the wealth of Duanxia City to the Red Dragon as a reward, but not all of this city is the official property of Duanxia City, and there are also self-employed people such as Fat Businessman.

However, the vast majority of self-employed people dare not say anything in the face of Red Dragon's strength.

The fat businessman in front of him was obviously a character who wanted money rather than his life.

Jose's mind came alive.

The development of a city cannot be separated from all walks of life. Among them, merchants play a core role in transporting materials, and their importance is self-evident.

As soon as he thought about it, he had an idea in his mind.

"The order is passed down. If the owner of the property in the city is still alive, the original property will be returned. All the property that lost the owner will be confiscated. In addition, a notice will be posted to tell everyone that all the properties in Longteng City will be rebuilt. These houses belong to me, and we will take out the property." A portion of the houses are sold, and survivors have the right of first refusal.”

"..."

To control a city, gentleness alone is not enough, you also need thunderous means.

At the end, Jose added: "Also, those guys who dare to take advantage of the situation and embezzle other people's property will be chopped down by me without leaving any one behind."

"As you command," the legendary green dragon responded.

Jose turned to the fat businessman again: "I am an enlightened ruler. You can run your business in Longteng City with confidence and boldness. As long as you abide by the law, I guarantee the safety of your life and property."

"Yes! Yes! Thank you, Lord Dragon."

"Well, let's go down."

The green dragon took the fat businessman away again.

Running Dragon City is just incidental. Jose's main task is to firmly control Dragon City and use Dragon City as a base to obtain military merits, hunt demons, and earn points in order to win the competition.

Jose and the Goblin Alchemist Master continued their discussion.

"..."

With the huge manpower and material support from the Fusai Empire, Longteng City was rebuilt in one month.

On the endless plain, a city built of special obsidian shimmered with heavy light under the dim sun. The city walls were covered with shooting holes, and a large number of magic crystal cannons were mounted on the battlements. There were towers at regular intervals. The city exudes a chilling smell.

This is a war fortress armed to the teeth!

In terms of business, Longteng City is also a prosperous scene.

Although the emperor did not attach importance to the profits from operating Longteng City, he did not want to give up, so he transferred professional management talents from the Fusai Empire and let professionals run Longteng City.

And he himself became the hands-off shopkeeper.

However, in terms of military affairs, the emperor has always attached great importance to it and still does it personally.

In the core castle, in the city lord's room, Jose was checking the reports sent back from the frontline scouts.

After taking Longteng City firmly under his control, he took precautions and sent scouts to investigate the situation in the demonic city - Rogge City.

In addition to the elite scouts from the Fusai Empire, the emperor also holds an ace in his hand, and that is the six-armed snake demon-Biontha.

Many years ago, Jose released the six-armed snake demon-Biontha on the 182nd level of the abyss, allowing it to develop its own power.

Biontha did not disappoint him. With the capital given by the empire, she conquered a group of demons and became a small lord on the 182nd floor of the abyss, which is considered a minor celebrity.

Originally, the six-armed snake demon was just a casual move made by the emperor, but he didn't expect it to be unintentional.

Now that Jose has come to the abyss, the demonic power of the six-armed snake demon suddenly becomes important.

Biantha's demonic subordinates have sneaked into Rogge City to work as internal agents for the emperor and to inquire about information.

"Report," the report of the Dragon Tooth Soldier guard sounded outside the door.

"Come in."

The Dragon Tooth Guards came in with a jackal.

The jackal saluted the emperor behind the desk: "Your Majesty, I bring you important news."

He continued: "While I was investigating, I found traces of the devil."

"Devil?" Jose frowned.

Longteng City is a long way away from the devil's territory, so there should be no devils outside the city.

Due to the competition, the appearance of the devil could not help but be ignored by the emperor: "Explain to me clearly what is going on from beginning to end, don't miss any details."

"The thing is like this. I was exploring the direction of Rogge City and found a trace left by a strong man's battle in the wilderness. I didn't pay attention to it at first. After all, it is normal for there to be traces of battle on the bloody battlefield."

"However, since the battlefield was a bit large and it was a battle between legendary warriors, I took a few more glances."

"As a result, I found this in a groove on a stone," the gnoll took out a glass vial from the bag on his waist and presented the vial.

Jose took the glass vial, which contained a small amount of black liquid.

He uncorked the bottle and smelled it, smelling an overpowering and evil smell, which was the devil's blood.

Judging from the energy contained in the blood, the Jackal's judgment was correct. It was indeed legendary-level high-level devil blood, and the blood was very fresh, no more than two days old.

"According to the traces at the scene, the one fighting the devil was a demon..." The jackal said a lot more, mostly his guesses.

The jackal finished speaking and retreated.

Jose said to the Dragon Tooth Guards: "You can go down too. By the way, give our excellent Jackal Scout a second-class merit."

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Clang.

The Dragon Tooth Guards retreated and closed the door. Jose was alone in the room, lowering his head and thinking.

"Although Dragon City prohibits devils from entering, Black Blood City does not. Could it be that this devil came from Black Blood City?"

In any case, a legendary devil appears around Longteng City, which is not a good thing.

"We have to guard against it," Jose said with uncertain eyes.

He turned to the shadow in the corner of the room: "Go to the battle scene and see if you can track the devil. If you can't track it, or the target has moved away, leave it alone."

"Yes, great master," the door opened and closed automatically.

Both Jose and the Longya soldiers guarding the door were accustomed to this.

The Shadow Guards of the Special Dragon Fang Soldiers are natural night hunters with constant invisibility. Professionals of the same level can hardly detect their existence.

Jose cast his gaze out the window. Goblin alchemist master Bulger Hurricane was building a giant door frame in the courtyard of the core castle. It was a giant portal.

Two months later, the army of the Fusai Empire will arrive at Longteng City through the portal, officially kicking off the competition that will determine the fate of Tydanor.

"At this juncture, it's best not to have any accidents."

……………………

On the other side, in a cave in the wilderness tens of thousands of meters away from Longteng City.

The Devil - Miranda is communicating with her boss.

"Lord Bagheri, I have left clues according to your instructions. Please indicate the next step."

"Very good," the cold voice of the demigod devil Bagray sounded.

"Next step, the red dragon should send someone to investigate. You lead him to..."

PS: It’s the end of the month and there’s no point keeping the tickets. Give them to me.
