Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire-Chapter 148 - 122: Dragon Dad, Transform for Me

The rejuvenated youth, now appearing as a young man, Casius left the Augustus family. No one knew where he went, not even Noah, perhaps only his foster mother knew.

According to Casius’s declaration, he would travel the world, challenging all the formidable foes he encountered on his journey. For someone who had fallen in realm, the world now had many opponents worthy of a fight.

The departure of the foster father did not cause any major changes in the Augustus family. After all, no one would expect the Augustus family to cut off a limb themselves, erasing a legend. freēnovelkiss.com

Such a story would not be believed even if spoken, let alone guessed. Therefore, even when Casius disappeared without a trace, there were no attempts to probe.

This was also because the Augustus family now had a legendary mage stationed permanently, bringing unparalleled deterrence.

Of course, the economic effects brought by the legendary mage were unimaginable to warriors, and any magical product, even if it only bore the name authorization from the legendary mage, could sell at several times the price of similar products.

Unlike the difficult-to-produce warriors, the very existence of a legendary mage was an inexhaustible source of wealth, which is no exaggeration.

Therefore, despite having lost much of its high-end combat power, the Augustus family appeared to become increasingly prosperous, with no signs of decline.

"Alas, if only the foster father had a bit more patience and a little more ambition."

The Golden Dragon thought, unable to resist, as he watched the Cloud Giants gathering below.

Upon his foster father’s promotion, the foster mother becoming a legendary mage was a scene he had imagined for a long time. With such power, Noah felt it was entirely possible to plan to seize control of the kingdom.

Indeed, after the foster mother’s promotion, even though her behavior was ostentatious and arrogant, the old mage on whom the royal family relied had to personally leave to run errands for the Augustus family, just to secure the interests desired by this family.

This behavior was enough to show how powerful the Augustus family was at that time, and it’s no exaggeration to say that they were the first nobility within the kingdom, to whom even the royal family had to bow.

Although this still appeared to be the case, their family knew their own situation. With the foster mother guarding the Augustus family, they were indeed a strong force, but facing off against the royal family could still bring unease.

However, fortunately, the outside world did not know the true situation of the Augustus family, nor did anyone dare to probe, as doing so could be fatal.

"Your Highness Noah, all the adult giants have gathered, awaiting your orders."

As Noah was daydreaming about how prestigious he would be if his foster father and mother had greater ambition to control the kingdom, the Cloud Giants under his command came to report.

"Hmm, wait in place."

The Golden Dragon commanded.

This time, gathering the Cloud Giants was not for anything else but to completely bring the Elidis Mountains under his rule, and not just in name.

Noah was not satisfied with just that; to achieve this step, he needed to thoroughly sweep through these mountains, covering an area of 240,000 square kilometers.

This undoubtedly required a massive military investment, so Noah was not stingy, summoning all the adult Cloud Giants capable of fighting under his command.

Not just the giants; a few hundred Cloud Giants were not enough to conquer such vast mountain ranges, so Noah called for more reinforcements.

Roar～

Accompanied by the roar of the Fire Dragons, a large group of Flying Dragons appeared in the sky, each bearing a powerful and robust knight on its armored back.

"Noah, I’m here!"

"Where’s Edith?"

Seeing the Flying Dragon Knight Order entering the field upon his call, Noah was not surprised, asking about the whereabouts of another knight order.

"She’ll be here soon."

Not long after, accompanied by the cries and roars of Gryphons, a group of Griffins, their feathers groomed bright and beautiful, appeared in the Golden Dragon’s sight.

Augustus’s two most famous Sky Knight Orders, at the Golden Dragon’s request for assistance, officially joined the war for the expansion of the Golden Dragon Territory.

In fact, with Noah’s status, he could summon more knight orders to join the war, but Noah felt that those knight orders inclined towards tradition were not suitable for the complex terrain of the mountains; only the Sky Knights were most suitable.

"The family should form another knight order suitable for mountain warfare!"

Leading his knight order to successfully eliminate a Gnoll tribe, the youth dismounted from the saddle on the back of the Flying Dragon and couldn’t help but propose.

Even though Sky Knights have great advantages over ground creatures that cannot fly, they still face many challenges against targets in the forested mountains.

The centuries-old trees and dense shrubs can both obscure visibility and provide defense for creatures on the ground, not to mention the natural caverns and caves in the mountains offering many concealed places.

Even the Sky Knight Order finds it difficult to fully exert their capabilities when fighting in the mountains, facing many constraints.

"All-terrain Knight Order?"

Noah nodded,

"Actually, I’ve had such an idea for a long time, planning to cultivate a kind of fierce dragon beast that can adapt to most terrains, run at high speeds, and maintain sufficient combat power to serve as the knight order’s steed?"
