Chapter 377 Elders' Meeting
Knights dying in the snowfield is probably the most fateful ending, but it's a pity that Davis Golden Mushroom's body even fell into the snowfield.
According to the legend of Longmian Continent, if you die in the snowfield and resurrect as a snow ghost, your soul will be forever imprisoned in the snow ghost. Even if the snow ghost is destroyed, it will still be transferred to another snow ghost, never resting and never sleeping.
This is the most terrible way to die.
"Convene the elders' meeting, immediately." Earl Merlin ordered his followers, and then turned to Russell and said, "You also attend and tell the rulers about your sneak attack by the snow giant Da and your promotion to the Dragon Territory Lord."
"Okay." Russell nodded.
The lights in the elders' hall were bright, but there were only four ruling elders who actually attended the meeting - Chief Ruler Earl Merlin, Lord Quinbey, the chief steward of internal affairs, Lord Welch, the volcano minister, and Lord Quinqiao, the seal minister.
The Minister of Finance, Baron Davis Golden Mushroom, has died; the Chief Judge, Earl Osklo Water Willow, has also returned to the territory early; the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Baron Kunbiff Shadow Flame, has also returned to the territory.
Just like when Baron Roman went home and asked Roland to be his assistant and work for him.
These nobles have their own assistants, so they don’t need to stay in the Red Castle all the time and can go home at any time.
Moreover, the son of Earl Osklo and the grandson of Baron Kunbiff are both elected princes, which is a good opportunity to cultivate their political ability.
"First of all, I will inform you of two pieces of news, one good news and one bad news." Earl Merlin looked at everyone. Along the way, he had hidden his emotions very well. "Do you want to hear the good news first, or the bad news first?"
The elected prince Augustus asked first: "Chief Consul, I want to know, what does it mean for Mr. Russell to attend the Senate?"
Russell glanced at the other party. He was tall and strong, and even sitting on the chair, you could see the muscle lumps all over his body. On the other side, the elected son, Queensley, looked very elegant, showing a completely opposite attitude to Augustus.
Of course.
In terms of temperament, neither of them can be compared with their cousin Mel.
"Russell attended this elders' meeting because he is the good news that I want to tell you." Earl Merlin said calmly, "Since Russell is mentioned, then I will tell you the good news first... Russell has been promoted to the Lord of Dragon Domain."
"What?"
"Lord of Dragon Domain?"
The elders' meeting was suddenly in turmoil. The title of Lord of Dragon Domain undoubtedly surprised everyone. This is a legendary realm.
Which knight has not dreamed of becoming the Lord of Dragon Domain when he was young.
Even the flying dragon knight will dream that his fantasy beast will be promoted to a pseudo-dragon, and then he will become the Lord of Dragon Domain.
"Chief Merlin, really?" Lord Quinbe's gray beard trembled a little.
"Absolutely true."
Lord Kumbe turned to Russell and said, "Sir Russell, can we compare the dragon breath?"
"Okay." Russell nodded.
Then the two of them released their dragon breath at the same time.
Lord Kumbe, the housekeeper, is a 2nd-level high-level fantasy beast knight and a flying dragon knight. After riding a dragon for many years, his dragon breath almost condensed into substance, and pressed towards Russell.
But Russell is not only a flying dragon knight, but also a 2nd-level high-level fantasy beast knight, and a newly promoted dragon domain lord.
A body of dragon breath burst out, wrapped in a powerful thunder force, and directly hit Lord Kumbe's dragon breath.
The two dragon breaths collided in mid-air.
Instantly stagnated.
For everyone present, the flying dragon knight was fine, but the ordinary fantasy beast knights were uncomfortable, and they were almost out of breath due to the oppression.
Boom!
The two dragon breaths confronted each other.
But it only lasted for a short moment, and Russell's dragon breath crushed Lord Kumbe's dragon breath in a crushing manner.
This was a pure crushing in terms of power.
Lord Kumbe coughed and retracted his dissipated dragon breath. There was shock and joy on his face, and finally turned into a long sigh: "Mr. Russell is worthy of being a rising star in the Grand Duchy. I admire you for being able to get the attention of His Highness Shadow Flame!"
"Praise the dragon." Russell responded with a smile.
This face-to-face dragon breath confrontation directly confirmed Russell's identity as the Lord of the Dragon Realm.
Only the flying dragon knight blessed by the Dragon Realm Lord has such a torrential dragon breath, which can easily defeat the dragon breath of ordinary flying dragon knights. Moreover, Russell's dragon breath also contains the power of thunder, which makes everyone very afraid.
Even Earl Merlin, who had already felt the power of Russell's Dragon Realm Lord before, still couldn't help but admire in his heart.
"This boy's level is not much lower than mine!"
As the only 4th-level high-level fantasy beast knight in the Shadow Flame Grand Duchy, Earl Merlin's dragon breath is undoubtedly the most powerful.
He compared it with Russell during the day, and the dragon breaths of the two were comparable.
But he didn't know that Russell had the pseudo-dragon breath of the Dragon Domain Lord, and the strength of the dragon breath was far beyond his imagination.
Just to give him face, he didn't use his full strength to compete.
If it was a real contest, the dragon breath with the pseudo-dragon breath would completely crush any flying dragon knight! Russell has strong confidence in this-now he is already a half-step dragon knight, or the first person under the dragon knight!
"Sir Russell, how did you get promoted to the Dragon Domain Lord?" Lord Welch asked the doubts in his heart.
In the Shadow Flame Volcano during the day, he felt something unusual, especially the lightning mark on Russell's forehead.
I never expected that this was the power brought by the Dragon Domain Lord.
"It was Snow Giant Da who sneaked up on me and caused me to experience a life-and-death disaster." Russell simply explained, "Fortunately, His Highness Shadow Flame breathed dragon flames to help, and my partners and I worked together to finally break the phantom beast's power. shackles."
"Snow giant sneak attack?" Everyone was surprised again.
Lord Kunbei nodded repeatedly: "No wonder, no wonder, during the day yesterday, His Highness Yingyan roared angrily!"
Russell smiled slightly and suddenly looked at the elector Augustus: "Do you have any objections to my presence here now?"
"Hmph!" Augustus asked for trouble, but he was not willing to give in. He just snorted.
I thought in my mind that I have three bipedal flying dragons, but I am afraid that you are just a flying dragon knight and dragon domain lord.
The three-headed flying dragon rides on the face, Shuiliu is invincible in the world!
At this moment, Augustus quickly regained his confidence, held his head high, crossed his arms, and squeezed out his strong pectoralis major muscles.
Lord Kunqiao, the Lord Privy Seal, said excitedly: "Your Excellency Russell has been promoted to Lord of the Dragon Realm. This is a major happy event for the Grand Duchy and should be commended. I propose that in the name of the Shadow Flame Dragon Blood Family, Lord Russell be canonized as a Baron of the Grand Duchy!"
"Don't be in a hurry, Baron." Earl Merlin stretched out his hand and pressed it. "After talking about the good news, there is also bad news."
Everyone immediately sat upright.
Earl Merlin closed his eyes, brewed his emotions for a while, and then spoke slowly: "Just today, Baron Davis was outside the country and was also sneak-attacked by the Snow Giant Da. He was unable to escape and eventually fell on the snowy field."
"ah!"
Everyone was shocked.
Especially Augustus, his face changed drastically. Among the Senate, Baron Davis was his only supporter.
"The top priority now is to ask all the dragon knights to immediately suspend the execution of the demon-killing order." Earl Merlin rubbed his forehead, "Until the Snow Giant's actions are clear, no more fearless sacrifices can be made."
The four ruling elders, the three electors, and Russell were all silent for a while.
Then Earl Merlin spoke first: "Your Excellency Kunbei, the Red Castle needs you to prepare for the funeral of Baron Davis."
Lord Kunbei nodded: "I know this, and will inform Madam Jian Guo as soon as possible, and then send someone to express condolences."
"Queensley." Lord Merlin named him.
The elector, Queenslai, immediately stood up and said, "Chief Consul, please give me your orders."
"You are going to inform Arnold Lieyang Marquis and tell him about the Snow Giant Da's successive sneak attacks on the two Grand Duchy Flying Dragon Knights, and ask him to contact the Blazing Torrent Kingdom immediately... If necessary, ask the Torrent Dragon to come again."
Queenslai nodded and said, "Yes."
"Your Excellency Kunqiao."
"Chief Consul, please speak."
"I want to set off for the Golden Summit Castle as soon as possible, and maybe also go to Leize and the place where Davis died for on-the-spot investigation. You are the Lord Privy Seal. During my absence, you will be responsible for the government affairs of the Council of Elders. host.”
"I understand." Lord Kunqiao responded.
"Your Excellency Welch." Earl Merlin looked at the Minister of the Volcano again, "Baron Davis has died. Go and report to His Highness Ying Yan, and then ask His Highness Ying Yan what arrangements he has for this. If there is no arrangement, then That’s my opinion!”
"I'll go immediately."
After everything was arranged, Earl Merlin announced the adjournment of the meeting.
On the way back, Russell asked: "Grandpa, when are we going to Golden Summit Castle? Is it early tomorrow morning?"
"Davis is your uncle. Now you go back overnight to inform the Fluorescent Castle and go to the Golden Roof Castle with your parents." Earl Merlin was leaning on a metal gem crutch, which was a birthday gift from Archduke Kunstein.
The walking stick of the Elder Dragon Rider.
Like an old man, he paced slowly: "I'll go back and take a nap. I'll go to the Golden Summit Castle tomorrow when I wake up."
