Faced with little Jerry’s inquiry, Mike knew that no matter what he said now.
It was not possible for Little Jerry because, in this Otherworld’s Chamber of Commerce, only Little Jerry could mobilize a large number of manpower.
Mike continued, “We shouldn’t take the initiative to attack. If we really encounter them, we should try our best to get rid of them and not let them know anything about our situation. According to the current situation, we should delay for at least a hundred years. A hundred years is probably enough for a victory to be decided in the Otherworld.”
Little Jerry nodded and said to Mike, “Alright, I understand. I will make sure that my subordinates have as little contact with outsiders as possible to prevent anything else from happening.”
Mike nodded and said to Little Jerry, “There’s one more thing. Our current recovery resources are sufficient. We should consider building an academy.”
!!
Little Jerry smiled, “You don’t have to worry about that. The two of you have already begun to prepare for this matter. The academy should be able to be set up in a few days.”
Little Jerry asked, “Mike, what should our city be called?”
Mike Thought for a moment and slowly said, “The Dragon Castle. Shouldn’t it be called the Dragon Castle?”
Little Jerry nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll get my men to prepare. We need to have a naming ceremony.”
Mike nodded. He also felt that they should have a naming ceremony. The naming of this magnificent city should have a bit of a ceremonial feel to it.
“Akari has already eliminated the threat within a ten-thousand-mile radius. There aren’t any large-scale magical beasts nearby, only some small magical beasts. The Snow Fox is also discussing some deals with them. For example, they can use the divine power here, but if someone wants to sign a contract with them, they have to think carefully. They can’t just reject it.”
Mike was surprised. He understood what the last sentence meant. In the beginning, when a summoner signed a contract, the most troublesome thing was how to make the magical beasts submit to the summoner willingly. The way Little Jerry was doing it now was to directly omit the conflict and make the magical beasts and summoners equal. In this way, it would save a lot of trouble in the future.
Mike nodded and said to Little Jerry, “You’re doing these things better than me.”
Mike said to Little Jerry, “Oh right, prepare some signs or other identity symbols.”
Little Jerry was a little surprised. He did not understand what Mike was doing.
Mike said, “From now on, we have to establish the concept of the natives for them. When the seal of the Dragon Castle is lifted in a hundred years, outsiders will rush in. This group of natives will be better able to defend their interests.”
Little Jerry nodded and said, “I’ll do it right now.”
Mike nodded. He looked at Little Jerry and asked, “There’s one more thing. Is there any news from the Otherworld?”
Little Jerry said, “If you hadn’t told me, I would have forgotten. The Castle Lord is here. He’s waiting for you at the residence.”
Mike frowned slightly. He nodded and said to Little Jerry, “What does he know?”
Little Jerry frowned and said, “I’m afraid he knows everything that he shouldn’t know.”
Mike nodded and said, “Prepare a banquet. I want to treat him to a feast.”
Little Jerry said, “You’re still not going to make a move against him.”
Mike said, “There’s no need to make a move. Moreover, if we want to communicate with the imperial palace in the future, they are the best bridge.”
Little Jerry nodded and went down to prepare.
Mike looked at the vast white world outside the window and frowned. He muttered, “I hope you’re not looking for trouble. Otherwise, I really don’t know what to do.”
Mike let out a long sigh and turned to leave.
The banquet was soon ready. Mike and the Castle Lord, Little Jerry, and the other two, entered the banquet.
The Castle Lord looked at Mike and said, “I knew you wouldn’t be able to relax. We haven’t seen each other for a year, and you’ve already made such a big commotion.”
Mike chuckled and said, “It’s nothing compared to the commotion in the Otherworld. What’s going on in the Otherworld now? Where are we fighting?”
The Castle Lord heard this and shook his head. He said, “It’s not optimistic. I don’t know why, but the situation in the west is the same as in the Otherworld. The undead army is pressing on the border, but our strength is concentrated in the east, causing the western defense line to be extremely weak. It’s almost on the verge of collapse. Right now, the undead army is advancing at a very fast speed. We’re already less than 200,000 miles away from Central Plains City.”
Hearing that, Mike’s expression became solemn. He asked, “Doesn’t the leader have any actions?”
The Castle Lord said, “Yes.”
“Yes. All the cavalry and dukes have moved out. They have begun to build a defensive line. Some places can even counterattack.”
Mike nodded and said, “That’s good.”
Seeing Mike’s reaction, the Castle Lord frowned. He even thought of Mike’s shock after hearing the news, but he did not expect Mike to act so indifferently.
The Castle Lord asked, “Aren’t you worried?”
Mike smiled and said, “What am I worried about? Even if I’m worried, I can’t show it to you.”
The Castle Lord looked at Mike speechlessly and said, “You don’t trust us?”
Mike shook his head and said, “The situation is special now. If it were you, you would do the same, right?”
The Castle Lord frowned slightly. A moment later, he sighed and said, “I still have to advise you not to think about going against the imperial palace. The difference in strength between the two of you is too great. If you go against the imperial palace, it would be tantamount to hitting an egg against a stone. You should think about it carefully. Don’t pay for your impulsiveness.”
Mike sneered. He looked at the Castle Lord and asked, “So you came here to be the lobbyist of the imperial palace?”
The Castle Lord frowned and asked, “Why did you do this?”
“Do what?”
The Castle Lord pulled open the curtains and pointed at the tall platform outside the window. He said to Mike, “Do you really think the world is blind? How long can you hide your actions for?”
Mike’s expression did not change. He pointed at a white cloth on the table and asked, “What color do you think this white cloth is?”
The Castle Lord said, “Didn’t you say so yourself? This is white. What does such a question mean?”
Mike looked at the Castle Lord and said, “Very good. It seems that you still have the ability to distinguish between black and white. Then let me ask you, do you still remember your self-introduction when you first met me?”
The Castle Lord frowned. He looked at Mike, not understanding what he was trying to say.
Mike looked at the Castle Lord and said, “You told me that you are the Dragon Guardians, responsible for protecting and maintaining this high-level dragon head. Now it seems that you’re telling the truth.”
“That’s right, then what do you have to doubt?”
Mike looked at Castle Lord and said, “You also said that you relied on the power in the dragon head to become a divine-level powerhouse, and that it was the same for Eve. The remaining power of the Holy Dragon in the dragon head had all entered her body.”
“That’s right.”
“Is this statement true? Mike looked at the Castle Lord and asked, “I have at least grasped the drawing method to maintain a high-level enchantment. I know exactly how much power of the Holy Dragon is required to maintain a high-level enchantment. You said that the remaining power of the Holy Dragon had all been absorbed by me? Is that possible? Furthermore, why is there such a coincidence? Why did Eve and I meet at the entrance of the Dark Church? You have treated the Dragon Castle well, and the Dragon Castle has treated you well. Only then can the balance be maintained. Now, you want to remove the biggest weight on the balance, making it unstable. Do you know what the consequences will be?”
The Castle Lord said nothing.
