"I dare not threaten you, but I hope to have the right to talk to the prime minister on equal terms."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Blake had no other way out. At this time, he had no other choice. If he wanted to take the initiative for himself, he had to rely on such fierce words and means.
Didn't you want the information on the High Elves? If you dare to make a move, we will all die together!
But as soon as Blake finished speaking, Roddy raised his hand and pointed at the window. "I will now send the Dragons to the Moon God Clan's location. Before nightfall, I believe that all the so-called information in your mouth will be dug out. There is no need to wait for ten days. Tomorrow at the latest, I will put those things in front of you and let you die knowing what you are. What do you think? "
There was a sudden dead silence in the room. Blake's cold sweat flowed down his cheeks and dripped onto the floor. He wanted to speak a few times, but Rody's tired and indifferent gaze made him unable to reply.
This was not only the fear of death, but also the huge sense of helplessness due to the gap in knowledge.
Was Roddy trying to scare him? Blake did not dare to take the risk because the possibility of what Roddy said was too high. He thought about the newspaper he just read. The relationship between the Dragons and humans had suddenly become close. How did he get caught and brought here? After all, it was the five Dragons who personally took action!
Since he could send the Dragons to catch him, why couldn't he send them to find things?
Blake was in a daze for a few seconds before he realized where he was wrong. He had been using the concept of a "traditional ruler" like Charles II to judge Roddy's behavior. Only now did he realize that the prime minister in front of him was not that kind of person at all!
The most important difference was that the power Roddy currently controlled was on a completely different level compared to the feudal monarchs like Charles II.
In the past, Blake would still be proud of the power and glory of the "Holy Assembly". But there was no harm without comparison. The "Holy Assembly" was indeed much stronger than those local nobles. But now, the Kingdom of Karen was completely unified. Its population and economy were equal to the sum of all the previous lords. Moreover, the level of magic had improved by leaps and bounds because of the cooperation with the Dragons. With Elson, the magic core city, the number of magic departments under Roddy was not the same as the small magic towers supported by the nobles.
Under such circumstances, what advantage did the High Elves of the Holy Assembly have?
Just as he was sitting there, someone knocked on the door of the laboratory. A servant came in and reported, "Prime Minister, His Excellency Arlwa of the Frost Dragon Race requests an audience."
Roddy wanted to wave his hand and refuse, but when he heard that it was Kardashian's brother, he immediately waved his hand and said, "Oh, then invite him in."
Seeing Blake standing there with a pale face, he directly waved his hand and said, "Whether you are the Moon God Clan or the Holy Assembly, the only thing you need to do now is to obey the country. If you don't agree with this, then you can leave."
This was basically an ultimatum. "You can leave" did not really mean that Blake could leave. Combined with what Roddy had said before, if he turned and left now, the consequences would be that he would disappear from the world.
Before he could respond, the door behind him opened. The Frost Dragon Arlwa, who had not been seen for a long time, strode in. He was one of Victor's more valued sons. In terms of power, he was probably equivalent to Iscar's position in the Red Dragons.
But Arlwa should have been "patrolling" in Lessiman before. Why would he suddenly come here?
With doubts in his heart, Roddy stood up and greeted, "Lord Arlwa, long time no see!"
"Don't call me Lord. Now I have to call you Prime Minister."
Arlwa was still as lively as ever. His attitude towards Roddy was completely different from his father Victor's shrewdness and was as warm as the spring breeze. He greeted him after entering and smiled. "I have to thank you for saving my sister the last time we met. I didn't think I would say the same thing again this time."
"It's a coincidence." It was not convenient for Roddy to go into details now since Blake was still standing there. Arlwa looked at him curiously. "This is …"
"An elder of the San Marrano Assembly, a descendant of the High Elves."
Arlwa did not react to Roddy's answer, but he added, "They may not be good at anything else, but they are good at causing trouble. Your sister and I were almost trapped in a dimensional prison."
"Huh? So it's them! "
Obviously, Alva had heard about the 'time and space prison'. He turned around and glared at Blake. Then, he asked straightforwardly, "What? You're still keeping him? Are you planning to hang him after the New Year? Or are you going to drag him out and behead him later? "
The Kingdom of Karen had the custom of executing criminals on death row after the New Year. The method of execution varied from place to place. Hanging was the most common method, but beheading was also a part of it. Of course, the result was the same.
Blake trembled. He did not expect a Dragons to ask such a question. His forehead was full of cold sweat. He wanted to speak but did not dare to because of fear. He was afraid that if he said anything wrong, he would be dragged out and beheaded on the spot!
To be able to change from "Elder of the Sacred Guild" to "Lord Holy Lord", Blake's mind was definitely stronger than the average person. However, he had no trump card in his hand, the enemy in front of him was terrifying, and there was also a powerful Dragons suppressing him from the side. It was already good enough that he could barely maintain the ability to think.
"There are a lot of people in the Sacred Guild. If we want to deal with them, we have to uproot them. I let him choose."
Roddy changed the topic and ignored Blake. "I remember that you should be in Lacheman. It's not time for the patrol rotation yet, right?"
"It's all because of this battle. It's like there's an earthquake within the Five Great Dragon Tribes … That so-called 'Cumulative Punishment System' isn't just implemented in Karun's territory. Even in Lassiman, I'm thinking about finding a laboratory to write my thesis in. However, my father said that the patrol range has been increased and the rotation period has been shortened. I happened to be transferred here. Now that I have two weeks of leave, I came to take a look. "
"Oh? What about Lacheman … "
"Your sister is doing well. I even went to see her before I left." Arlwa knew what Roddy was worried about. "I heard that she will stay for another two years? I don't think it's necessary. She has almost learned everything she can over there. Next, she can either go for actual combat or come here to be nurtured. "
