Chapter 103:
In the huge square of Tal Kaled, the Great Council, there is a giant stone sculpture hundreds of meters high in the center area. A black dragon roars towards the sky. Even the gaps in the scales of the dragon palace can be seen. Compared with the giant dragon sculptures of the Qing Dynasty, this giant dragon sculpture seems a bit rough, because it was made directly from a huge mountain stone under the spell of the dragon tamer, without the meticulous craftsmanship of the sculptors. It seems quaint and unusual.
This is the legendary father of dragons, Black Calzaranos.
The square was filled with people, a rough estimate of at least tens of thousands of people. The closer they were to the position of the Dragon Father, the higher their status. Randy, High Priest Val, High Priest Adaeus, Supreme Mage of Flame Tower, Agg Seer...
all the giant dragons active in the sky of Caledor are standing in their places. The dragon halberd guards are standing next to the sculpture with their halberds. Representatives of all walks of life in Caledor are coming here. .
After hundreds of years, the Great Council of Caledor was opened again.
The person standing in front of the huge sculpture of the Dragon Father is none other than Imrik.
After Minas Nir and the dragons at the edge of the square roared, announcing that the Great Council had officially begun, Imric stepped forward and faced tens of thousands of Caledor's people.
"Today, we stand here. Standing on the land of the Caledonians, standing on Tal Khaled, the land where the ancestors irrigated every corner with their blood and dignity." "What is in front of me
is Citizens of a silent kingdom, we are Caledonians, using honor and bravery to represent the spirit of each of us." Under the
influence of the spell, Imric's sonorous and powerful voice was passed to everyone's ears, and they You can personally feel the emotion in the words of the Dragon Prince.
"Since Prince Titris was shamelessly murdered on the Deserted Island, the sky of Caledor no longer has the echo of dragons, the smoke of Dragonspine volcano no longer fills the air, and the kingdom that once symbolized warriors has fallen into silence." "Fell into silence
. Later, other people tried to ride on the dragon's neck, thinking that they could tame the dragon with a collar. They trampled on our dignity, the dignity of a brave and glorious country." For a moment, the square fell into silence, and no one
would I don’t know what Imric meant by his words.
Since Titlis became the Phoenix King, during the last battle to expel Druzi, he was bewitched by the Holy Sword of Kane, went to the Sword Altar of Kane alone, and died mysteriously.
According to the statement from the Phoenix Court at that time, it was the Druzi assassin who killed him, but the White Lion Guards were highly suspected. This incident had a huge impact at the time. Caledor was about to split from the Phoenix Court and enter independent state.
If it weren't for Val's oracle, there would only be eight kingdoms in the Phoenix Court, but the Caledonians still feel shackles. A nation full of glory will not forget the hurt of the past.
Since Imric was crowned the Phoenix King in the name of his grandfather, the Dragon Tamer, Caledor has contributed the most to fight Druzi and Chaos, but has gained the least. Several princes have died in battle, and the number of Dragon Princes has increased from Dragon Taming to Dragon Taming. The 3,000 people in the revolutionary era have now grown to 800 people now. Many families can only put the weapons and armor that symbolize family honor into exhibition halls because all their men died in battle.
"You may say that we only need to defend Caledor and the Dragonspine Mountains. The glory of our ancestors is enough to cover up everyone except the guardian Aenarion." "But, I want to tell you!
Caleb Many people are never satisfied. Even after countless generations, our glory can still be engraved on every rock in the Dragon's Back Mountains!" "As long as there are still people who want to trap the dragon with a collar, then this kind of glory will not be will exist; this glory will not exist as long as those who want to glimpse the power of the dragon's court; this glory will not exist as long as the roar of the dragon is not heard in every corner of Ulthuan ; As long as the smoke of the Vaal Anvil only floats sporadically in the Dragonspine Mountains, this kind of glory will not exist."
As an invited guest, Princess Adira was standing in the corner of the square, listening to Imric's words, although It was Caledor, but Tyronloch was not the same. The damage caused by the Great Schism has not been recovered to this day. The nobles crawled on the civilians to suck blood, and the Inner Ring Kingdom provided some sparse support to allow Tyranrok to resist Druchi's army. .
In the square, a strong murderous aura began to spread around the sculpture. Are the Caledonians idiots? No, never, they just don't want to pay attention to politics. Don't they know that they are resisting Druzi with the lives of their countrymen? If Ulthuan is the most dangerous location, then only the west, the long-term battle in Nagaryth They all have the Caledonians as the main force, and those inner ring kingdoms are just sitting back and enjoying the results.
I only heard Imrik continue to say, "What we need is not a trivial charity! It is not the equipment made by the priests of Vaal with their lives in exchange for those abominable gold leaves! It is not the warriors of Caledor fighting bloody battles on the battlefield. In the end, What you get in return is disrespect!"
Suddenly, Imrik raised his voice and shouted with an extremely passionate expression.
"What we need is the glory that belongs to Caledor! Caledor has been silent for too long, letting them forget who this peace comes from! My father, your prince Mikhail, was killed by Druzi After killing them, all they got were some disgusting gold leaves and those gems from merchants! Stinking gems!" "
Since Ulthuan can't give us respect, the Caledonians will get it in their own way!"
" As the patriarch of the dragon tamer family, the dragon lord, and the prince of Caledor, I declare that I will summon all the dragon princes and soldiers to awaken the sleeping dragons, relight the Vaal Anvil furnace, and start the war on Lustria in five years. Colonization."
"This world is ours to rule as we please. We earned that right when the world dawned. It was we, and we alone, who succeeded in defeating The power of Chaos drove them back to the Demonic Realm of Chaos. So those lower races must understand this fact and submit to our rule - if they are not willing to obey peacefully, then they will bow under our force!"
After finishing speaking, he pulled out the Dragon Fire Sword from his waist, pointed the sword at the sky in the distance, and roared.
"For Caledor."
If you want to ask who is the most excited person present, then it must belong to Randy. As a 600-year-old Asur, he is already familiar with the situation in Ulthuan, and even thought that Caledor would finally He can only be reduced to a mercenary, driven by other kingdoms, rolling feebly towards the battlefield. He wants to change, but he is just a soldier and doesn't know what to do.
But looking at Imrik on the stage, he felt the excitement he felt when he fought under the Dragon Prince. The long-lost blood surged into his heart again, and his long-quiet heart was ignited again.
He pulled out the sword from his waist, raised it high, and shouted, "For the dragon lord, for Caledor, and for Val." The
high-level dragon princes standing around him also began to shout, and then in the middle, Finally, there is the outside of the square.
"For the dragon lord, for Caledor, for Val."
Hearing the roar of the crowd behind him, the veteran looked at the young dragon prince on the stage with his sword pointing to the sky, "Mikhail, Imric will definitely be the conquering king. The greatest Dragon Prince in the future, he will definitely live up to the name of his great ancestor."
