Dragon Monarch System



Seeing that the third battlefield already had ended, Aditya teleported to the fourth Battlefield. While Aditya was going from one battlefield to another and the whole Oracle Alliance was in chaos. Before this war started, no one in their wildest dreams dared to think that they would lose the first three battles. But now Given how things were going, the Istarin Empire would win its fourth battle as well.

The Mystic Spring Empire, the Methia Empire, and the Qeyesha Empire, all three Empires have suffered a lot because of Aditya. Especially the Methia Empire who had lost its whole army and also the fourth prince had died at Aditya's hands. The majority of its troops were captured as war prisoners.

At the same time, another problem arose. The news about The Mystic Spring Empire, the Methia Empire, and the Qeyesha Empire, losing their battle spread in all directions like wildfire. The news quickly spread to all of the powerhouses in the northwestern region. In every major city, the news had currently become a very hot topic. It was as if someone was deliberately spreading this news.

Scene change_____

"So what happened?" Seeing his cold and merciless eyes, Smith lowered his head and looked at the ground. Smith was the mid-5th-order cultivator sent by Lucas to help the Qeyesha Empire to win their battle. But for some reason, His man ran away from the battlefield like a coward.

Smith had directly returned to Ostrance which was the Capital of the Echo Nexus Empire. As soon as he returned, he was taken to have a meeting with the Echo Nexus empire.

By now, almost everyone within the City was asleep, the Emperor and everyone within the Echo Nexus Emperor Castle were still awake. Lucas had placed this rule in the royal Castle that no servant or maid living in the Royal Castle is allowed to sleep before Lucas. This meant, if Lucas stayed awake for days, then all the servants and maids would also need to stay awake.

No one really knows the reason for such strange law to exist. But a law is a law. And the punishment for breaking such a law was death. And that's why no Servant or Maid dared to close their eyes while they are working inside the Royal Palace. This is also why, most of the servants and maids who worked in the Royal Palace did not live inside the Royal Palace. Instead, they lived in the Capital with their families.

Smith's entire body trembled in deep fear. He didn't dare to look at Lucas who was sitting on his throne. Instead, he stared at his own feet and repeatedly prayed in his heart that he doesn't get killed by Lucas for his failure. "We managed to launch a surprise attack on the enemy using Magic cannons. At first, everything looked in our favor but a few minutes later that completely changed."

"What happened? Did the enemy commander summon a meteorite and threw it on you guys? Or did the enemy commander suddenly create a skeleton Avatar of 600 meters and attacked you with that?" Lucas asked in a sarcastic tone. From his tone, he was really angry.

"No, nothing like that happened. The vice commander of the enemy suddenly took out a uniquely shaped Cannon. I don't know what this Cannon is called but it takes around 30 seconds to fire. Instead of firing Magic cannonballs, it fires a powerful golden ray of light that looks like sunlight. The Cannon is powerful enough to kill a beginner-5th order mage. It was able to kill around 100,000 of our troops with a single strike."

Hearing this Lucas nearly fell from his throne. He suddenly found strength leaving his body, filling his whole heart with fear. Just imagining a Cannon capable of taking out 100,000 troops chilled his heart.This chapter is updat𝓮d by nov(e)(l)biin.com

'What kind of Cannon was that?' Lucas rubbed his forehead while deeply thinking.

After around a few minutes of deep thinking, Lucas turned to Smith. "Tell me more about this Cannon. Tell me how it looked."

"The cannon did not have wheels. The barrel of the cannon was twice big compared to normal cannons. A yellowish glowing stone was placed in the place of the gun power and the ignition chamber. The yellowish glowing stone looked somewhat like a solar stone. Though I am not completely sure as we were a few kilometers away. Even with my heightened senses, there is a limit to how many details I can see from that distance."

Hearing this Lucas fell into a silence once again. 'So it's Cannon that can somehow harvest the light energy inside the solar crystals and turn into a beam-like attack. Even after years of time and countless resources in research, the Oracle Alliance has never been able to make something this powerful, yet a recently formed Empire was able to do it. How Pathetic! I feel as if I had just wasted my time and millions of my gold coins for no reason.'

'How should I even deal with such a weapon? Just one cannon was able to kill about 400,000 troops and a beginner 5th-order. What would happen if the enemy came with 100 or even 1000 of these?' Just thinking this, Lucas felt his entire body trembling in fear.

'Then should I just surrender and end this war? If I surrender at this point, even though the Oracle Alliance will have to pay compensation, I can still keep my power and status.' As soon as he thought these words, he quickly shook his head. Lucas did not want to stop there.

Not all hopes were lost. It might look as if the enemy has an advantage, Lucas also had a few secret weapons as well. What worried Lucas is the mass production of such weapons and their use against his alliance. If he had known about this, then he would have delayed this war and first would have taken some time to prepare something that can counter the enemy's cannon.

After around 5 minutes of complete silence, Lucas's eyes finally focused on Smith. This made Smith stiffen. He felt very nervous.

"Smith, although I am disappointed in you for running away from the battlefield which had ruined the Echo Nexus Empire's name, just this time, I won't punish you." Unlike other Emperors, Lucas had the power to even punish peak 5th-order cultivators. There is only one Peak 5th-order cultivator in the Echo Nexus Empire that he can't punish even if he wanted to. Fortunately, he is one of the most loyal men out there. On the orders of the Emperor, he wouldn't even hesitate to give up his life.

Sigh!

'Thank God.' Smith sighed in relief. The invisible pressure that Smith was feeling this whole time seems to have disappeared. As his worries faded, Smith was able to breathe deeply and relax his body in front of the Emperor.

Lucas and other Emperors planned everything without considering the Istarin Troop's involvement. Everyone thought, at most, Aditya would send powerful 5th-order and Peak 4th-order cultivators. But never did the Oracle Alliance think that he wouldn't care about his wealth and would send around 2,000,000 troops to the northwestern region. "I won't punish you because you have provided the Echo Nexus Empire with very valuable intel. And also, the situation wasn't exactly in your favor."

Smith lowered his head and nodded his head.

"So I have another task for you." Smith thought that he was going to be sent to another battlefield or something similar. But thinking about the battlefield, he couldn't help but think about that Cannon that the enemy vice-commander used.

"I want you to go to the Obi Islands and give this key and this letter to the gatekeeper of the old abandoned church which is located in Sunflower City." The Obi Islands are located northwestern side of the Echo Nexus Empire. The Obi Islands are big as the Queenstown Empire.

Smith was confused hearing the Emperor's words. Why he was being sent to do a delivery job? This should be the job of the regular soldiers or servants. But knowing that he had angered the Emperor and would only end up angering him again if he showed any objection, he silently accepted the order.

A key green old key along with a letter was handed to Smith's hand by the Emperor. Holding the green key, Smith felt a small trace of Evil energy in it.

"Once you give this letter and key to the gatekeeper, he will explain everything to you. I expect you to return within 24 hours."

"Understood." Smith bowed to the Emperor and then walked out of the throne hall. After Smith exited the Throne hall, Lucas began to grin. Smith had no idea what he was about to unleash on this world. If Smith had known about it, then he wouldn't have went there.
