Now that a consensus has been reached, everyone must start preparing.
Since the losses of various countries in this war were not very great, the soldiers and knights under their command were not very war-weary.
But even so, Krober resolutely decided to wait for a few months or half a year before sending troops to the other world.
During this period, each country should rest well and strive to make up for the losses caused during the war with the Winged People.
This proposal was also recognized by everyone. After the banquet, they returned directly to their respective capitals and began to actively prepare for war.
They said they were preparing for war, but in fact they were just dealing with the huge mess at home.
After all, their country has been attacked by the Winged People to varying degrees, and there are a lot of troubles waiting for them to deal with.
The same goes for Krober. He will have a lot of troubles waiting for him when he returns.
Although his country was not invaded by the Winged People, he had to bear the pressure of the invasion of the Mind Flayers.
Moreover, he still needs to deal with the things left behind by the destroyed Holy Mithril Kingdom.
The countries had already agreed at the previous banquet that the territories of the Holy Mithril Kingdom would be divided among the three countries bordering it.
They are the Citrine Jade Crown Kingdom in the southwest, the Topa Kingdom in the southeast, and the Amethyst Ocean Current Kingdom of Krobe.
As compensation, the other four countries will receive a batch of resources.
Kroeber led his army back to Ocean Current Island.
The first thing he had to do was to disband the army. After all, they had experienced a war of genocide, so it was right to give them a break.
"grown ups."
After learning the news of Krober's return, Orchi headed to the hall as quickly as possible.
"Lord Krober, the army has returned triumphantly. Why not hold a triumphal ceremony? This would be a great thing to boost the morale of the people!"
This time, Krober led the air force, which flew very fast, and Krober did not inform Orchi of his upcoming return.
"It's unnecessary. Everyone is tired. A tedious triumphal ceremony will only bore them. It would be better to let them go back and rest more."
Since Krober had already said so, Olchi naturally had nothing more to say.
"Okay, let's get down to business. Has anything major happened while I've been away from home?"
Olchi shook his head and replied:
"No, sir, everything is normal at home. However..."
He paused, as if hesitant to continue.
Krober looked at him curiously. Since when did Olchi become so cautious in his words?
"But what?"
Kroeber asked again.
Olchi took a deep breath and said carefully:
"It's just that Queen Veronica seems to be a little strange lately."
Hearing the name Veronica, Krober instantly stood up from his chair with obvious worry on his face.
He asked anxiously:
"What's going on?"
Sensing Krober's anxiety, Orchi quickly recounted the whole story in detail.
It turned out that ever since Veronica took Vivian out to explore alone, Veronica began to notice some strange changes in Vivian's body.
Although these changes are subtle, they cannot be ignored by the sensitive Veronica.
Originally, Gwendolyn had planned to give Veronica and the golden dragon Vivian a comprehensive physical examination to ensure their health.
However, Krober urgently summoned Gwendolyn to guard the space rift where the Mind Flayers were stationed. This mission was of vital importance and could not be delayed.
Therefore, the physical examination of Veronica and Vivian had to be put on hold for the time being.
As time went on, the appearance of the Golden Dragon Vivian changed significantly, almost changing every day.
Not only that, the other lower-level dragon knights actually felt suppressed when facing Vivian, as if there was an invisible force restraining them.
At first, everyone thought that this might be because Vivian had experienced some kind of adventure and gained greater power.
This situation is not uncommon. After all, it is common to encounter various opportunities during adventures.
However, as time went by, they gradually discovered that the Golden Dragon Vivian's personality had also changed significantly, becoming more irritable and irritable.
The original Vivian had a gentle personality and got along well with other dragons.
However, she has now become extremely arrogant and irritable, showing disdain towards all lower-level dragons.
Only then did everyone notice something was wrong.
In desperation, they had to imprison the golden dragon Vivian in a magic-free environment, causing her body and soul to fall into a dormant state, waiting for the return of Kroeber or Gwendolyn before taking any action.
"Vivian..."
Krober whispered softly.
In fact, the first dragon he came into contact with was not Deep Purple, but Vivian.
At that time, he was just a small Baron of Black Feather Island, with weak strength and just a great knight.
Veronica is also still a high-ranking Grand Duchess and a powerful dragon rider.
At that time, he had just conquered Amethyst Island, and in order to save time in traveling back and forth, he was specially arranged to sit on Vivian's back.
In other words, the first dragon he "rode" was Vivian!
"Where's Veronica?"
Kroeber asked.
"The Queen is currently accompanying Lady Vivian, who has been there for the past few days."
"Come on, take me there right away."
Led by Orchi, Krober rushed to the back garden of the Ocean Island Palace, which was originally the place where the Granzel space-time rift was stored, but as that world was completely absorbed, the empty space left behind just took on the responsibility of restraining Vivian.
"This...is this Vivian?"
It’s not that Krober is ignorant, it’s mainly because Vivian’s appearance has indeed changed a lot.
The originally slender neck became much thicker, the bright yellow body turned a little white, and some armor-like cuticles grew on its body.
If he hadn't told her that this was Vivian, he would have suspected that this was some kind of mutated platinum dragon!
At this time, Veronica was sitting outside the magic circle, staring blankly at Vivian who had fallen into a coma.
His face couldn't be described as haggard. After all, magical life forms no longer needed to eat or rest daily to maintain their condition.
"Veronica..."
Krober walked forward and hugged the other person tightly from behind.
Veronica, who was worried about Vivian, slowly closed her eyes after feeling a broad, warm chest filled with a familiar breath.
"You're back?"
"Well, I'm back. I'll help you deal with Vivian's matter."
