Chapter 401 The Beginning of Unification
One after another, the big families in Syat declared their submission to Queen Peggy in the north, and Queen Peggy conferred new titles on them one by one and redivided their territories.
The Fisher family, which had been called "Fishermen" and "Regicides" for a long time, gradually gained a new nickname in Syat: "Heart of the Ocean".
Because Carl possesses some of the authority of the "God of the Sea", the Fisher family is almost invincible on the sea. As long as there is a battle within the White Sea, he can interfere with it with a lightning strike.
At the same time, many of the territories actually controlled by the Fischer family are overseas rather than in Syat, and they also have stable shipping routes and a considerable sphere of influence on the White Sea.
Therefore, "Heart of the Ocean" is actually a very logical title. Although people openly call them "Heart of the Ocean", many people secretly call the Fisher family "Leviathan" or "Agor", "Monster of the Deep Sea"!
As a result, more and more families pledged allegiance to Queen Peggy, including the Fisher Family of the "Heart of the Ocean", the Roman Family of the "Dark Angel", the Fessack Family of the "Beast of the Desolation", the Jones Family of the "Angel of Wrath"... and even the Middle Family of the "Song of the Ruins" after losing Marquis Middle. After hesitation and thought, they gave up revenge and finally chose to surrender completely.
Among all the big families in Syat today, excluding the royal family of Yardley, only the "Mist Walker" Abernathy and the "Burning Blood Dragon" Castleton family still have ambiguous attitudes.
Therefore, the Fisher family asked Queen Peggy to issue an order to summon the people of several large families that had already surrendered, and asked each large family to send a powerful monarch.
The Fisher family hid Yager and stayed in the East Coast Province. They only sent Darren and Chris, plus one person from each of the several large families, a total of six monarchs led the army.
They combined the powerful military forces of several major families and began to attack the territory of "Burning Blood Dragon" Castleton.
The monarchs and powerful men of many families performed effectively, and they almost crushed the enemy along the way. They easily made the "Northern Kingdom Army" reach the outskirts of the city where the Castleton family was located.
Even though the Castleton family's barrier had been fully raised, no one thought they could win, because after the death of Marquis Rad, the "Burning Blood Dragon" family only had two extraordinary strong men below the monarch.
No matter how hard those two people resisted, it would be difficult for them to defeat the "Northern Kingdom Army".
The "Northern Kingdom Army" did not attack the city immediately. Instead, Darren sent someone forward in the name of the Queen to question the "Burning Blood Dragon" family about what they had done over the past decade and asked them whether they would surrender!
"Surrender, Burning Blood Dragon, you still have a chance to repent!"
Darren suddenly turned into a huge fire dragon and flew into the sky, issuing a low and majestic voice to the people in the city, and everyone felt great fear.
However, the "Burning Blood Dragon" family refused to surrender!
Marquis Rad's son also transformed into a giant dragon of fire, flying in the city, confronting Darren and responding loudly:
"You killed my father, I will defend him till the very end! The power of the Burning Blood Dragon does not lie in our blood, but in our dignity and soul!"
Darren laughed loudly and nodded in the sky:
"Very good, a man of integrity. I like people with integrity. Perhaps the final foundation of a country needs these people to support it."
When he returned to the coalition camp, he immediately said:
"Destroy this city."
Several people fell silent, and Aldridge shook his head and said:
"In fact, there is a chance if we just carry out beheading. If we kill the two powerful enemy monarchs, the rest will probably surrender."
Darren nodded gently, showing a very peaceful smile and said:
"You make sense... Then, let's destroy this city. I hope their destruction will speed up the unification of Syat."
Aldridge frowned, but still insisted, "I hope you can show some mercy, Sir Darren. After all, the people in the city are all Syat people, and we are killing each other."
"Enough people have died in the more than ten years of civil war."
So what? Darren looked at Aldridge in surprise. He didn't expect that he liked mercy more than he thought. He spread his hands and said:
"Respected Lord Aldridge, some deterrence is necessary. You must believe that my killing at this time is to avoid many killings in the future."
"Then I hope I can not participate in this battle." Aldridge finally gave up persuading him, but he did not plan to play.
"Can."
The Fisher family was very accommodating to Aldrich. Basically, Darren would consider and compromise with Aldrich's suggestions and requests from the bottom of his heart.
Because the Roman family was willing to give the greatest fruits of the civil war to the Fisher family, they promised not to fight for the interests, but agreed that the fruits of victory would be divided by the Fisher family who controlled Peggy.
In fact, Aldrich's "humble" behavior caused resentment within the Roman family, and some people even hoped to suddenly stab the Fisher family in the back in the final stage and enjoy the fruits of victory alone.
However, his unusually tough attitude ultimately suppressed the ideas of many people within the family and ensured that the Roman family would not pose any threat to the Fisher family in the slightest.
Therefore, within the Fischer family, the favorable impression towards the Roman family has reached an extremely high level.
So, except for Aldrich and Chris, the four powerful monarchs present led a mighty army to attack the city of Russ, which belonged to the "Burning Blood Dragon" family.
An unprecedented disaster quietly befell the city. People saw two huge fire dragons in the sky, as if they had broken out of ancient mythology. Their scales flashed ominous red and dark gold light, and they drew two blazing tracks in the sky, interweaving a heart-pounding picture.
One is Darren who has transformed into a fire dragon, and the other is the son of Marquis Rad. He has also inherited the bloodline power of the "Burning Dragon", but his strength is only at the level of a monarch, so he is obviously much weaker in both size and strength.
Darren's body was so huge that it almost covered half of the sky. His wings spread out like dark clouds covering the sun. Every flap of his wings was accompanied by a deafening roar and a strong wind that swept everything. His eyes burned with unquenchable rage, and his mouth spewed flames that were enough to melt gold and stone, turning the buildings along the way into ashes.
The streets twisted and deformed under its anger, as if the whole world was trembling in its rage.
The son of Marquis Rad is also not to be underestimated. His scales are thicker and his wings are wider. He seems to be able to swallow all the light around him when flying. His roar is low and powerful, enough to shock people.
The two fire dragons circled and chased each other over the city, and every confrontation was accompanied by deafening explosions and earth-shaking vibrations.
They tore each other with their sharp claws and rammed their bodies into buildings. Flames intertwined to create a doomsday scene. The residents of the city were terrified and screamed and wailed as they fled from the land of death. The entire city fell into chaos and despair.
Suddenly, the fire dragon that Darren transformed into suddenly grew in size, even bigger than before. Not only was its body growing larger, but the ominous demonic aura and bloodthirsty eyes also frightened the other party.
"No! I surrender!"
After seeing this scene, the son of Marquis Rad was shocked. He suddenly noticed that another powerful monarch in his family had died, and the city was gradually collapsing and falling apart. The principles that he had always adhered to in his heart could no longer be upheld, and he couldn't help but shout.
"I am willing to surrender! Ouch!"
Darren suddenly stretched out his sharp claws, penetrated the barrier of fire, tightly grasped the fire dragon's neck as thick as a pillar, bit the neck fiercely, and tore it with all his strength.
The fire dragon struggled hard, flames and roars intertwined into one, but it was unable to break free from the shackles.
A heart-pounding crisp sound pierced the sky, as if the whole world had stopped at this moment.
“Wow!”
The fire dragon's neck was torn off abruptly, and blood gushed out like a fountain. It was not ordinary red, but hot blood mixed with flames and anger. They drew gorgeous and cruel tracks in the air, and finally turned into a bloody rain, falling on the ground.
They burned every inch of land, and the air around them seemed to be frozen by this sudden change, leaving only the gradually weakening wailing of the fire dragon and the trembling of people in fear.
