Black Dragon Code

The dark shadows continued in the night, outlining the edge of the courtyard, and the walls showed nuances against the fire.

After turning off the magic communication, Caesar couldn't help shaking his head. The encounter with the long-distance fleet was just a trivial matter for him, but some of the attitudes that Blackia revealed from it contained serious problems.

It has been a long time since the founding of the Black Wing Empire, and it has become a powerful multi-ethnic country as Caesar hoped, but being strong does not mean tolerance. Although the Black Wing Clan can coexist with humans , but never consider human beings as members of the empire from the bottom of their hearts.

It can be seen from the attitude of Blacksia calling the human captain "bastard, bastard", and this also represents the attitude of most core clans in the empire.

The emergence of this situation is actually related to the original decision-making of the Black Dragon Emperor. At that time, Caesar had no reference cases and could only cross the river by feeling the stones. The privileged clan plan came into being, strict and high-handed hierarchical control and class antagonism Created grades and grades and high and low.

This plan achieved very good results at the time. In fact, until now, there is still no problem with the privileged clan plan itself, but the empire is undergoing transformation as it develops. The functions of various industries are becoming more and more refined, and the monsters are not capable To meet the needs of the kingdom, more and more capable humans were promoted, such as Shipping Minister Corvet, Captain Klendo, and Propaganda Minister Barrett.

Their hard work and loyalty earned them status in the empire, but they were not recognized or respected by the high-level Black Wing clan represented by Hogg and Nero, so the hidden dangers they brought cannot be ignored .

Intimidated by the power of the Black Dragon Emperor, it is unlikely that they will take actions such as rebellion and rebellion, but passive sabotage is almost inevitable. Even if Caesar replaces all the departments with problems with new candidates, if the root cause of the conflict is not resolved , as long as a period of time has passed, similar problems will reappear.

In today's situation where the never-ending empire is eyeing like a tiger, Caesar must not allow such mistakes to occur. He must stabilize people's hearts, both internally and externally.

On the second day, under the order of the Black Dragon Emperor, a high-level plenary meeting of the empire was held in the royal court.

...

At the same time, in the eastern region, thousands of miles away from the northern border of Elradia, an unexpected war broke out in the swamp.

The Marshland Kingdom, mainlanders are used to calling the dwarves who rule this place in this way, but the Marshland Kingdom is not a country, never has been, in fact it is more like a military alliance, composed of Red Castle, Graycastle and Iron Castle. Fort is composed of three different dwarven kingdoms.

The history of these dwarf kingdoms may be longer than people can imagine,

As early as the orcs of the second era, they had already stood on this land, but compared with the orcs, the dwarves were smarter and had stronger judgment, so in the era when humans rose, the ancient dwarves did not compete with this new race. A large-scale conflict broke out, but after several contacts and comprehensive judgments, he chose to follow the trend of the times, gave up a large chunk of his own territory, and retreated into the swamp with the other two dwarf countries to form an alliance to continue living.

So these seemingly one dwarves actually have different histories, different ancestors, and different customs. Their countries are not actually called Red Castle, Gray Castle, or Iron Castle, but have their own names, but those dwarves It is too difficult to pronounce after translating Chinese into a long and complicated common language, so these pronouns come into being.

After a millennium-long alliance, the Three Forts Kingdom is now in tension under its seemingly harmonious appearance.

In the Marshland Alliance, high mages and wealthy businessmen are basically members of the Red Castle Kingdom. The people of the Red Castle consider themselves the descendants of the dwarven god Moradin, an undisputed royal family, and firmly believe that the Red Castle is the part of the Marshland. The mainstay of the alliance should occupy the leadership position.

The predecessor of the Iron Castle Kingdom was the famous Warhammer clan in the Second Era. Their ruler, Prince McNee, was the most powerful warrior in the swamp. The Iron Castle dwarves, like their king, were born with extremely strong physiques, declaring that I was born to fight. This country provided more than half of the military alliance's army, but was considered "rough and unreasonable" by the Red Keep.

In order to restore the glory of the past, the Iron King is still working hard for his ideals, striving to melt the three castles into a complete and unified empire.

In addition, there are the Graycastle dwarves ruled by Prince Athas. They spend most of their time in the casting room and underground. They are famous for their amazing forging techniques. The Halberd of Sri Lanka is one of the most powerful legendary weapons of this era. Although the people of Graycastle concentrate on forging and seldom speak out in the alliance, they have control over various underground metal mines, making the other two countries Eyes hot.

Now Emperor Enrithil's "Alien Threat Theory" is well known in the world. When the orders and demands of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets arrived in the marshes, the Kingdom of the Three Castles had different political opinions. The Red Castle had close contacts with the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets. Prince Maran believed that he should immediately respond to the proposal of the empire on which the sun never sets and reach a covenant.

However, the Iron King of the Warhammer Clan showed a tough side. He thought this was a disguised submission. If the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets wishes to form an alliance with Zedi, the three kings should be invited to the capital of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets to meet and discuss with each other. Instead, it was an insult to send a cocky emissary, and he refused to accept such an "order".

The two kings argued endlessly, but Prince Atas remained silent all the time, saying that he wanted the Kingdom of the Marsh to cut off contact with the Blackwing Empire. In fact, it meant that Graycastle cut off contact with the Blackwing Empire. Graycastle has nothing to do with the north, but Graycastle is different.

After living for thousands of years, the local mineral deposits in the Marsh have been exploited by the dwarves. In the past, the forging furnace of Graycastle needed to continuously import expensive raw materials from the trading city-state, but after the new trade relationship was reached, the Black Wing Empire Regularly sell minerals and batches of forged parts to Graycastle at a relatively low price, in addition to food, summer grass drinks, elegy cards and other daily necessities that Graycastle people need.

Their cooperative relationship does not stop there. The Black Wing Empire will request blueprints for designing standard equipment from Graycastle, and some new material experiments are also completed in Graycastle. At the same time, the North continues to provide Graycastle with high-paying employment opportunities. , They have also jointly developed new armors for dog monsters and orcs... All in all, the two sides have built a deep friendship in a short period of time.

"In any case, this trade relationship cannot be severed, unless the empire on which the sun never sets can give my people enough compensation." Prince Atas thought.

No one thought that a war would be triggered just because of different intentions on this matter, but when the flames of war ignited throughout the marshland, everyone was shocked. Even the initiator of the incident, the Empire on which the sun never sets, never expected that things would develop in this direction.

The diplomatic situation is only the fuse, and the internal conflicts in the Three Forts have reached the point of irreconcilability. The alliance of thousands of years, all the patience, grievances, and concessions all broke out at this moment. The alliance was torn up and the flag was trampled. But the dwarves in different armors began to kill each other.

In the end, when Prince Maran's magic, Iron King's warhammer and the handed down warhalberd ignited the night sky, the collapsed furnace turned into a never-ending flame with the help of the elements, and the marshes were completely destroyed, becoming a Jedi that could hardly survive.

There was no winner in the Civil War of the Three Castles, and the dwarves who were devastated by the war and disheartened parted ways. They went their separate ways: the King of the Red Castle led his noble mages to the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets, firmly believing that they would be able to be respected in the Magic Empire. Courtesy. McNee and his powerful Warhammer clan announced their separation from the Marshland Alliance and moved to settle in the most open and inclusive central region.

And Atas and the graycastle dwarves who suffered the most losses set off on a long and distant road—they had to cross half of Elradia to visit the emperor of the north who had not yet met.
