Beneath the Red Dragon

Chapter 555: Chapter 51: Secondary Authority_3

"And some capable pirates can train the empire’s first navy and gain official status from the empire,"

"Pirates lacking in wealth need to demonstrate their value to the empire through their actions. Presumably, from now on, the pirates harassing the empire’s sea routes will decrease significantly. As for the remaining pirates, they are either other noble families’ black gloves or stubborn elements. Once the situation is understood, it’s much easier to deal with."

Red Dragon’s words were definitive, making the murmuring group of dragons nod in agreement. Steel Dragon Midir initially planned to present his new proposal to the king of the Dragon Group.

Having familiarized himself with the empire’s economic situation for several months, Steel Dragon Midir believes that, given the good reputation accumulated early on by the Golden Empire’s giant dragons and the empire’s rising economic momentum, it’s already time to establish an empire central bank specifically for economic regulation, guidance, and profit harvesting.

This idea isn’t surprising, as the Goblin Consortium on the Southern Continent has built the Goblin Bank from years of transaction accumulation and customer credit, earning substantial wealth.

Steel Dragon Midir, being a giant dragon specializing in this field, naturally pays special attention to economic projects that can earn wealth and benefit the empire. Thus, she has reviewed the Goblin Consortium’s data, intending to emulate the goblins in establishing the empire’s central bank.

But upon seeing Red Dragon’s actions, she swallowed back her words. The Ancestral Red Dragon rose from the throne and descended the steps, indicating that, at this moment, the Ancestral Red Dragon wasn’t engaging with the dragons as the Emperor of the Imperial.

Karon stepped into the Dragon Group; the Ancestral Red Dragon’s physique was unique among the dragons, highlighting the smaller stature of Blue Dragon Carlette in front of him. Their roles of adoptive mother and adopted son seemed like they should be reversed.

Red Dragon gently touched her horn against the sleepy Blue Dragon Carlette’s single horn; among the dragons who are stingy in expressing their already meager feelings, Karon’s action was considered quite remarkable, instantly waking the injured, weary yet forcibly attending council Blue Dragon Carlette.

The Ancestral Red Dragon gazed at Blue Dragon Carlette’s suddenly widened vertical pupils and subtly revealed his fangs, turning his head towards Doss among the giant dragons and softly said, "You’ve done well enough, but in these turbulent times, it’s not yet your best!"

"I needn’t say more; you’ll find clues from the empire’s intelligence and some incidents unless you’re too careless,"

The Ancestral Red Dragon circled the Dragon Group, his dark gold vertical pupils flickering with tiny flames, accompanying his words, "In this age destined to be uncertain, the time left for us is actually very limited. We can restrain our claws to grow, but time won’t wait for us."

"Rosani has offered her strength for the future of the Dragon Group and enabled my experiment’s success. Thus today, we gather the Dragon Group not only because we are bringing Rosani home, but also because, at this moment, we embark on our destined journey."

"If successful, we naturally stand high above, soaring within the Vast Sky Cosmos. If we fail, we’re merely setting out on our journey a bit earlier than expected."

A cluster of Lights of Spirit suddenly leapt onto the Ancestral Red Dragon’s claw tips, dazzling and radiant, carrying a strong allure and temptation for the giant dragons.

This is the Authority of Gluttony fused within Karon himself, and by analyzing, replicating, and harnessing the Spiritual Domain’s power, he has condensed a replica of a strand of Spiritual Authority.

It’s also a spiritual seed, capable of quickly taking root and growing in the hands of dragons who have birthed Heart Energy.

And this is most suitable for the Dragon Group’s current capabilities. Although not as powerful as the Ancestral Red Dragon’s Bloodline Talent, with careful cultivation and robust growth, it can serve two-fifths of the Ancestral Red Dragon’s talent.

"Come, stand by my side; the world is our hunting ground, and the Gogomola Dragon Group is the apex hunter!" The Ancestral Red Dragon bared his sharp white fangs, flaunting his wings and claws, and smiled.
