Translator: 549690339

According to the intelligence networks of Lady Bauhinia and the other major merchants in Black Gold City, the situation around the Lait territory and even Harvest Bay had become very complicated.

In order to find out what agreements Lait and Mido had reached, almost every human country sent emissaries or spies to Mido through Harvest Bay.

But no matter if it was merchant ships or fishing boats, all of them were sunk by pirates in Harvest Bay.

Pirates had become rampant recently. Combining this with the information provided by the giant dragon, everything seemed possible.

The more she thought about it, the more frightened Black Rose hurriedly left with Black Spirit. She entrusted the procurement of supplies in Nolan Forest to some subordinates and went to inform Lady Bauhinia personally. It would be up to the real Elsa, the Lady of Bauhinia, to decide the next move.

Once Black Rose left, Otto’s life returned to its quiet state.

Although there was an ambitious neighbor next to the Land of the Soaring Dragon, it was clear that the surrounding human countries didn’t want to make things easy for Lait either.

So, Otto didn’t need to take action himself.

He only needed to leak some important information through the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce, and someone would naturally help him deal with Lait, the not-so-friendly neighbor.

More importantly, although Otto unified Nolan Forest, the overall strength of the Soaring Dragon Legion was still far behind the current dominator of the continent, the humans.

Even the powerful High Elves could only stay within the Dawn Forest, which was slightly larger than Nolan Forest, without ever leaving.

He might be able to bully some small countries, but compared to the two empires, he was completely inferior.

Now, Otto was not the ignorant Dragon Beast he was in the beginning. Even judging by the size drawn on the map, the territory of any of the two empires was more than ten times that of Nolan Forest.

Moreover, the quality of weapons and equipment was second only to the dwarves in the Sky Mountains. Moray was currently very interested in studying the torsion ballista sent by the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce.

Sofia handed Otto a small notebook, detailing the research on the Lait soldiers during these days.

These days, a large number of new Lait captives had been sent from the Sulfur Mountains, but it had become difficult to capture more since Lait had completely annexed Mido.

Now their forces were mainly stationed at the foot of the Sky Mountains, which belonged to the Red Copper Dwarves.

The scouts of the Soaring Dragon Legion had to worry about both the Lait army and the various war machines of the Red Copper Dwarves whenever they made a move.

However, according to Sofia’s notebook, the research seemed to have made some progress.

First of all, Sofia and Moray had confirmed that the reason for the peculiar condition of these Lait soldiers was the small pills in the clay pots.

These pills contained a small amount of True Dragon blood sealed by a special method, which could grant the user similar strength to a Dragonborn for a short time.

If the user was already powerful, they could harness more dragon vein abilities, such as projectile attacks

Moreover, each pill contained only a small amount of dragon blood. They could estimate that one drop of dragon blood could create dozens or even more pills. By using these pills, the individual strength of the Lait army could be greatly enhanced.

This was the reason why they could easily defeat one opponent after another despite not having an advantage in numbers or equipment.

Of course, there were certain irreversible side effects to using these pills.

First, a person who had taken one color of pill absolutely could not take another color, as this represented two different True Dragon bloodlines.

With the pitiful constitution of humans, they simply couldn’t bear it.

Although the users could greatly enhance their abilities in a short period of time, their mental state would become irritable and angry.

Once the effect of the pills wore off, the users would become very weak, far worse than their normal state. The other components in the pills would also continuously erode and damage the user’s body.

Moreover, the dragon veins in the pills, although small, would still continuously pollute the users’ bloodlines.

If the pills were used in excess and to a certain degree, the users would also transform into Dragonborn.

At the same time, as their bodies had already been damaged by the pills, they wouldn’t be able to survive the Dragonborn transformation process.

However, as their struggle continued, the frequency of the Lait army using these pills would undoubtedly increase.

Moreover, as the number of times they used them increased, their bodies would develop a strong dependency on the pills, even becoming addicted.

In order to achieve the ambitions of the new king of Lait, these poor people had become sacrificial pawns and chips to be placed on the gambling table, doomed to die no matter what.

A general becomes famous, and thousands of bones become dry…

This saying was universal in any world.

After reading all the findings recorded on Sofia’s notebook, Otto lay on his black stone platform, covered with treasures, feeling inexplicably heavy.

Although he never revealed it, Otto thought of himself as a good person, more or less…

Then he picked up the notebook again and saw the clear records of the scouts of the Soaring Dragon Legion, who had brought back numerous clay pots filled with color-coded pills, in addition to the new Lait captives.

The pills came in different colors, besides the initial blue, there were also white and red pills discovered.

Through some experimentation on humanoid slaves, they found that the three colors of pills corresponded to three different color dragon bloodlines.

As Otto looked at this, he couldn’t help but think of the strange circumstances when he first entered this world.

The strange grand hall, the strange magic array, and the strange conversation.

“After wasting so many expensive magic materials, it’s just another Dragon Beast…”

“Try your best to recover the materials of the magic array. There’s no need to waste the contract on a Dragon Beast. Send him to the arena to sell for a good price…”

Otto thought of those blond-haired, blue-eyed men in medieval clothing, and the guy named Walton.

Now that he thought about it, Walton didn’t have curly blond hair like the others, but rather a face full of beard and brown hair that was characteristic of Lait people.

Could it be…

Upon this thought, Otto immediately called Krom, the Dragonborn Beastman who had spent a long time in the Serbian Colosseum.

“Your Majesty! ”

Krom respectfully knelt before Otto, very satisfied with his current life. Though branded with a Blood Covenant, it didn’t matter compared to what he had gained.

So he was still very grateful for the grace bestowed upon him by Otto..
