Chapter 517: The Sea Folks’ Fleet

“I only have one thought.”

Feeling the gazes from all directions, Watson slowly raised his head and said, “We fight.”

“As expected of the future king, his thoughts are the same as the generals.” The generals, led by Horne, had smug expressions on their faces; they looked disdainfully at the other civil officials around them.

The civil officials, especially the leader, Macrotov, looked unhappy. His expression was dark as he said, “Your Highness Watson, I would like to ask, do you have any good plans to attack the Elven Kingdom? If we were to fight them, we would be in danger of being attacked by the Winter Nation. If the Holy Dragon Kingdom suffered any losses, would you be able to shoulder that responsibility?”

Watson smiled. “Of course, I have a good idea. Is that what you want me to say? Well, I don’t have any good plans. I just want to fight. It would be better to say that we have no other choice but to fight.”

“What do you mean?”

“In the current situation, if we don’t fight, we can only watch the elves enter our kingdom and destroy our cities, causing the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s people to suffer. Instead, if we fight, we still have a chance of survival! If we defeat the elves, we can return before the Winter Nation attacks if we are fast enough. We’d be able to defend ourselves,” Watson spoke with confidence.

“The elven kingdom’s army has already taken the fortress city., and they took less than a day to do that. As the largest city on the border, it only took that little time for them to fall to our enemies. If it were any other city, it would be even more difficult to resist the elven kingdom’s attack! However, after the elves captured the fortress city, they did not immediately attack other places in the kingdom. I guess they are waiting for the Winter Nation to make a move.”

“No matter what, the Elven Kingdom’s strength can’t be compared to the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s. Even if they had consumed the Spring of Life and become immortals, there are still differences in quantity and quality. Therefore, the Elven Kingdom will not launch an attack on the Holy Dragon Kingdom unless allied with other kingdoms. We didn’t join forces with the Winter Nation’s envoys when they were here last, so they are most likely allied with the Elven Kingdom. In other words, the elves are waiting for the Winter Nation to make a move.”

“The Winter Nation has not made any movements for the past few days. Perhaps they are waiting for the Elven Kingdom to continue attacking the Holy Dragon Kingdom and occupy a few more cities before they make their move so that it will be easier for them to invade us! We can see that the Winter Nation and the Elven Kingdom are not completely united. We can use that excuse to attack the Elven Kingdom’s army as the two kingdoms have ulterior motives. The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it will be for them. They lack supplies, so it will not benefit us if we delay any longer. If we want to attack, we can only take advantage of now, right?”

Everyone in the hall nodded. Even King Landhar III’s eyes lit up as he nodded. “That’s right, that makes sense. We lack time. If the Elven Kingdom and the Winter Nation attack, our kingdom will be exhausted and won’t have a good chance to stop them! But Watson, I want to ask you something. How do you ensure that you can protect our territory in the north after attacking the elves?”

“Your Majesty, don’t worry about that. I’ve already asked the sea folks to build ships outside the royal city in the past two days. Those ships can transport supplies without being discovered. If Your Majesty agrees, I’ll also create a channel to connect to everywhere in the kingdom, ensuring that our army can reach the cities within a day,” Watson said confidently. His words caused a huge uproar at the scene.

“Within a day? Is that true?”

“The royal city is far from the southern border. Even if we took a carriage, it would probably take us a month to arrive. Watson can shorten that time?”

“Perhaps it’s true. After all, Watson is the kingdom’s strongest genius. Even the seven gods are not his match. He collaborated with the Abedor family to create a potion that could transform a person into a platinum-tier angel. Even if the tunnel that he built doesn’t allow people to quickly travel to all parts of the kingdom, as long as they consume the potion and transform into a platinum-tier angel, they can also reach the southern part of the kingdom within a short period.”

Many noblemen and ministers were discussing it among themselves. Their eyes lit up, and there were many civil servants among them.

Initially, those civil servants opposed fighting because many places in the Holy Dragon Kingdom would suffer once the war started. If the Holy Dragon Kingdom failed, they would risk destruction. It was better to send envoys to negotiate with the leaders of the two kingdoms. Perhaps there might be a peaceful solution.

However, after hearing Watson’s promise, their thoughts were somewhat shaken. War was about the quality of the soldiers and the speed of their deployment. If they could achieve rapid deployment of the army, they might be able to withstand the attacks of the two kingdoms.

“Even if I create a passage, it wouldn’t matter if our troops in the south could not defeat the Elven army. The northern border is my hometown. If the Winter Nation sends troops, the border can withstand it. I dare say that they will never be able to break through the border to invade the kingdom. ”

Watson’s shocking piece of news caused the hesitant ministers to waver even more. Then, he stood up and said, “Why do you still feel conflicted? When someone puts a knife to your neck, do you want to put down your weapon? If you put down your weapon, they will kill you. Do you want to kneel, submit to them, and beg for mercy? Begging may save you, but if you beg for mercy once, there will be a second time and a third time. The late king had gone through many hardships to conquer this territory in the past. He knew that the Holy Dragon Kingdom was surrounded by other kingdoms in all directions, yet he still chose this place as the capital. Why is that?”

“I guess the late king deliberately wanted to put his descendants in danger. Only by putting them in danger would they be able to survive. Perhaps he wanted his descendants to remember how hard this land was to come by and what would happen to us if we lost this land! Do you want to see this kingdom destroyed? Or do you want to defend it until your last moment?”

Watson’s voice was not loud, but it was full of pride. The purpose in his voice made many ministers clench their fists.

“Of course, we want to protect our kingdom. We don’t want to retreat now or in the future,” a civil official shouted.

Then, many people also shouted.

“Attack the Elven Kingdom!”

“We must destroy those b*stards and let them see our power!”

Watson had a human chess piece in his body. Even if he did not say anything deliberately, it would still affect the human will, not to mention that his words were reasonable and convincing.

Within a short period, the excited voices filled the hall. The only one who could remain calm was the leader of the civil officials, Macrotov.

At that moment, he frowned. Slowly, he said, “I can understand that. To help the kingdom, he even made his hometown bear the stress of the war. However, there is a significant part of your plan, Your Highness. We must rush to the southern fortress city where the Elven Kingdom’s troops are located in a short period. We must also suppress the Elven Kingdom’s troops. Can you really do that, Your Highness?”

“I can do it.”

Watson nodded and agreed confidently. Under the surprised gazes of everyone present, he extended his hand and snapped his fingers. The light of the teleportation formation illuminated the entire hall.

“I said that I’ve asked the sea folks to build some ships. As long as there’s a passage, they can travel to any place quickly. Now, it’s time for everyone to witness that epoch-making invincible fleet from the sea folks.”
