Titan King: Ascension of the Giant-Chapter 654: Five-Race Alliance
Early the next morning, before the dragon race envoy arrived, Earthshaker, Gronthar, Drakthul, Arden, and Selenis came first to report on their mission.
"Lord Orion, we..."
Orion raised his hand, interrupting Drakthul who was about to speak.
"I already know about the matters in the Emerald Dream Realm. You all did well."
After saying this, Orion turned his gaze to Arden and Selenis.
"Arden, are you willing to be my messenger?"
This was the first time Orion had formally asked Arden. A messenger represented Orion and conveyed Orion's will.
The job of a messenger, in fact, was very difficult; without a certain level of strength, one simply couldn't be competent.
"My lord, Arden is willing! Arden is willing to offer his loyalty!"
Orion didn't say much more and directly signed a contract with Arden.
"According to Soraya's wishes, if the scorpion tribe is willing to stay in the Golden Pearl indefinitely, I will not interfere with your affairs."
"Since you wish to leave the Golden Pearl and want to accomplish things, you are very welcome here."
"Your branch of sand scorpions suffered heavy losses this time and is insufficient to undertake more important tasks. Rest and recuperate for a period first."
Selenis was thrilled by Orion's welcome.
However, upon hearing Orion tell the scorpion tribe to recuperate first, the excitement and brightness in her eyes immediately dimmed somewhat.
"I'm speaking the truth; I don't mean to look down on you."
Orion tossed out a storage bag. Selenis subconsciously caught it and curiously sensed its contents.
The next moment, Selenis's mouth fell agape, her eyes widened, and her face was filled with utter disbelief.
"Use up the resources inside, increase the number of small scorpions to over five hundred thousand, and then come back for missions."
Selenis prostrated herself on the ground, kneeling in excited gratitude for Orion's reward.
"You may leave!"
Orion waved his hand, dismissing the five from the conference hall.
Because outside the hall, Delilah was followed by an Alpha-level envoy of the dragon race.
"Bloodscale greets the esteemed Giant King!"
Bloodscale possessed Alpha peak strength. Orion had met him before; he had previously visited Stoneheart City.
"Why have you come?"
Orion's voice, compared to before, was considerably more indifferent.
In his view, to even grant an audience to an envoy a whole major level below him was already giving Glacial Dragon Jorik a lot of face.
"By order of His Majesty the Dragon Emperor, I am here to invite you to attend the Five-Race Conference to be held in three months at the Dragon Race's Whitecliff."
"His Majesty the Dragon Emperor? Frostsire has returned?"
Orion's voice wavered slightly. The title 'His Majesty the Dragon Emperor' was not something Glacial Dragon Jorik could bear.
"His Majesty has not returned. What has returned is his will projection."
The atmosphere in the great hall became silent; not even breathing could be heard.
A quarter of an hour later, Orion's voice finally sounded faintly.
"You may leave."
Orion didn't respond directly to the dragon race envoy, but he didn't refuse either.
Envoy Bloodscale didn't mind; such a result was what one would expect as the most normal reaction from a powerhouse.
After Bloodscale left the palace, Delilah, who had been standing to the side, frowned and asked.
"Honey, what does the dragon race mean by this?"
"What are they planning to do?"
This was very strange. The dragon race envoy Bloodscale invited Orion to the Five-Race Conference but didn't mention its agenda.
This situation was rather thought-provoking.
"It's not what the dragon race wants to do, but what the white dragon Frostsire wants to do."
Orion was also puzzled. When he said this, it sounded like a statement, yet also like a question.
"No matter what he wants to do, we'll find out by going to see!"
Orion emerged from his surprise, his whole being invigorated in that moment.
Unable to figure out what plan the white dragon Frostsire had, Orion simply stopped thinking about it.
With his current strength, even if the white dragon Frostsire came in person, Orion could match him evenly.
Moreover, it was just a will projection of the white dragon Frostsire.
"In the next few days, relevant personnel from the blood elf and human races should be visiting. Pay attention to their movements."
Orion looked up towards the south, where the human and blood elf territories were located.
If the Stoneheart Horde had received an invitation, they must have received it long ago.
...
The South, human kingdom.
In a secret chamber of the royal palace, King Harold faced a magic mirror, waiting for something.
A moment later, the magic mirror shimmered, and the figures of Grand Duke Richard and Grand Duke William appeared within it.
"This time, for the Five-Race Conference, who will go?"
King Harold asked, but neither of the kingdom's two Grand Dukes responded. freёnovelkiss.com
"I want to know, what exactly does the white dragon Frostsire intend to do?"
Grand Duke Richard had attended the previous Five-Race Alliance.
But this time, there was no warning, nor had any news come through.
Even their scouts planted within the dragon race hadn't obtained any relevant information about this.
"Otherwise, how about communicating with the Saint?"
Grand Duke William made a suggestion. On the entire continent, the dragon race was humanity's primary competitor.
Not knowing what the dragon race intended to do, these three were losing sleep and appetite over it, and it was impossible for them to recklessly venture to the Dragon Race's Whitecliff City.
Grand Duke Richard remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement.
"Then you wait a moment!"
King Harold disappeared from the magic mirror. Three minutes later, he re-entered the magic mirror world.
"The Saint said the white dragon Frostsire cannot return at this time."
"This Five-Race Conference is most likely related to the Sea Race; the dragons want to reclaim some sea territories."
"As for inviting us, apart from deterrence, it's very likely a show for the Sea Race."
King Harold revealed what he had learned, then looked at Grand Duke Richard.
"Richard, you should go this time. You're more familiar with the dragon race's side."
"My suggestion is to unite with the dwarves, giants, and blood elves to, in turn, counterbalance the dragon race."
"If there are no surprises, the other three races would surely be willing to unite under such circumstances."
Weren't the dragons trying to deter the other four races?
Then the other four races would unite and, in turn, deter the dragon race.
Harold wanted to see what tricks the dragon race would pull this time.
