The Glass Dragon Tribe was the number one dragon tribe on the Dragon Island. Back then, Alex came to the Dragon Island for the first time, and had a huge battle with the great elder of the Glass Dragon Tribe. After winning, he carved a line of words on the Glass Dragon Pillar:
Alex and Irina came here.
After so many years, Alex came to Glass Dragon Island again, and carved words on the Glass Dragon Pillar again.
However, this time, it was not a visit, but a high-profile response to the Roth Empire's announcement that had just shaken the continent.
Alex's response was simple and extremely arrogant.
Soon, this response spread across the Norland Continent at lightning speed, and caused a huge commotion.
…
"Hahaha, great! As expected of Alex. That old dog, Andre, must be looking terrible now. "In the dwarf palace, the king of dwarves looked at the news he just received, and laughed heartily.
…
The three big shots of Chaos City gathered twice in a day.
"This is really unexpected and comforting news. It seems like we should contact Alex. After all, we have the same goal," Michael said with a smile.
"I chased this chap down 18 streets back then." Rolan's lips curled up slightly with a smile.
"A year later, he chased you down 36 streets," Novan said with pursed lips.
A wave of hearty laughter sounded in the meeting room.
…
Norland Empire, Rodu, in a tavern.
"Have you heard? Lord Alex refuses to be the empire's grand marshal! "a fatty said softly.
"I was just about to tell you about this. I have a friend who works in the intelligence agency. The latest news we got is that Lord Alex came to Glass Dragon Island, and left two lines of words on the Glass Dragon Pillar. Guess what those words are?" a skinny middle-aged man said mysteriously.
"What words?" The people in the tavern couldn't help but stop what they were doing and listen carefully.
"I'm not going to be the grand marshal. I want this world to be peaceful," that man said in a low voice.
"Gasp …"
Gasps could be heard in the tavern.
When they heard that Lord Alex had become the military's grand marshal this morning, almost the entire Roth Empire was excited.
The God of War had returned to protect the Roth Empire again. How exciting was that?
However, after only half a day, a piece of news spread back to Rodu, and it was like a resounding slap to everyone's face.
The so-called promotion was just the king's wishful thinking.
Alex personally responded and refused to be the Grand Marshal. Moreover, his words were extremely strong and did not give the King any face.
"Could it be that Master Alex is no longer protecting the Roth Empire?" someone sobbed softly with deep disappointment.
Everyone present also couldn't hide their melancholy. Once upon a time, the invincible Alex was the pride of the Roth Empire. He was the reason why every human could walk with their heads held high in front of other species.
But now, this confidence might no longer belong to them.
"Shh! Do you not want to live anymore? How dare you say such things here! The few newspapers in Rodu have all received a notice. They are not allowed to report a single word about this matter. Otherwise, they will all be arrested and beheaded! "a middle-aged man in a long robe at the side chided softly.
"I'm being nosy. I was just saying. Don't … Don't take it seriously. I still have something to do at home. I'll take my leave first!" The middle-aged man's expression changed drastically. He found an excuse and fled.
Everyone else's expression changed when they heard that. They settled the bill and got up to leave, afraid of getting into trouble.
Similar things were happening all over Rodu. Although not everyone knew the details, the news of Alex refusing to be the grand marshal still spread quickly throughout Rodu, and became a secret that everyone knew.
In the palace's main hall, the two princes, 10-odd military officials, and the president of the Magus Tower, Richard, were all standing with grave expressions.
The news that they received a few hours ago cast a shadow over everyone's faces. No one expected Alex to give such a strong and direct reply.
"Bastard! This Alex actually dares to be so arrogant and disregard Royal Father. He has made the Roth Empire the laughing stock of the entire continent! "In the main hall, Sean couldn't hide his anger as he looked at the king, and said," Royal Father! I think we should issue a kill order and kill Alex! Only then can we save the empire's face. "
However, there was a hint of joy in his eyes.
"Royal Father, I also agree with Royal Brother on this matter. If we don't punish Alex, the Roth Empire won't be able to raise its head in the meeting of the various races two months later," Josh also said with a grave expression.
Many of the other military officials in the hall also spoke up to support the two princes. They wanted to make Alex pay the price to restore the empire's prestige.
The crowd was agitated. It was as if they would chop Alex's head back with their swords as long as the king gave the order.
"Your Highnesses, Lords, and General, what you said is not without reason. Alex's actions and words have disregarded His Majesty's orders, and brought shame to the Roth Empire. He is indeed unforgivable." Right at this moment, an old official standing in the corner stepped out, and asked everyone calmly, "However, if His Majesty really gives the order to kill Alex, who here can kill him? Who has the confidence to kill him before the peace talks two months later? How many top-notch combat powers do the military and the Magus Tower have to sacrifice to kill him? I wonder if all of you have considered this before? "
Once the old official said that, everyone fell silent.
Killing Alex was something that many people wanted to do.
But in the past many years, other than the extremely calculated siege on the rainy night three years ago, no one had succeeded. The number of assassins and killers who had died in his hands was innumerable.
However, even in that ambush three years ago, with the right time, place, and people, and with tens of 10th-tier powerhouses, Alex's daughter as a hostage, he still didn't die.
In that case, now that they didn't even know what he looked like and where he was, it was almost impossible to kill him.
Even if they sent out all the 10th-tier powerhouses from the military and the Magus Tower, as long as they couldn't form an ambush, the people who found him first would only be killed.
Back then, Alex had dominated the continent, and everyone didn't have a strong concept of how powerful he was.
But now, he was standing on the opposite side of the empire.
His power was a headache for the entire empire.
The hall was silent. Even Sean and Josh were silent.
"Who said I want to kill him? As long as he is still alive, the mark of the Roth Empire on him will never be erased. He is still the guardian of the Roth Empire. Can he really watch the Roth Empire perish? "Andre, who had been silent all this while, said with a cold smile. However, there was a strong murderous intent in his smile.
