The Taro family was known for their shrewdness. The Marquis of Red Crab Island, Merlin Longtaro, also boasted of his shrewdness. He did not learn from other Marquis families and adopt the method of marriage.
Instead, he valued the potential of the other party. The eldest son, Messiro, married the daughter of an Earl, who was backed by the Iron Knight family, so the Taro family did not lack weapons and equipment. The eldest daughter, Melinda, married the son of the Viscount of Longtail City, Roland Pinecone, who was known as a "genius."
The youngest daughter, Melissa, married the Viscount of Tahiti City, Leewilliam.
A few years after the marriage, Leewilliam was enfeoffed as the Earl Of Coral Island because of his outstanding military exploits. He also quickly became a Sword Saint, proving Marquis Merlin's ability to judge people.
However, Roland did not rise on the battlefield as he thought. On the contrary, after Viscount Roland inherited the title, his performance was very mediocre. He did not dare to go to the battlefield for a time, and his strength stopped at the Elite Earth Knight.
At this point, Roland became a stain in Marquis Merlin's life. He did not get promoted for more than 20 years, and was still a Viscount of Longtail City. Although he was resentful, Viscount Roland did not dare to go to the battlefield to prove himself, so he muddled along for more than 20 years.
Marquis Merlin died, and Messiro, who was about to inherit the Marquis' title, also did not like his useless brother-in-law.
So Roland did not have much loyalty to the Taro family. Even if they lived together on Red Crab Island, he would not necessarily come to Longtaro Castle a few times a year. Maybe he did not come as often as Liszt and his sister.
According to the Knight system of the legendary continent, the Earl must become a Sky Knight before he could be enfeoffed.
Roland probably did not have any thoughts about his title, but looking at the high-spirited Fire Dragon Knight Liszt in front of him, his decadent mind was once again stirred. Perhaps due to his strength, he could not be promoted to Earl, and his two sons' talent was not outstanding.
But following Liszt to mix the identity of a founding hero was obviously very easy.
At that time, he could count on Liszt to tilt a little more resources, and the Pinecone family's strength was just around the corner. It was better than staying in Red Crab Island and Longtail City.
But he did not immediately make up his mind.
He was ready to listen to what Liszt had to say.
"Uncle, uncle, cousin, please keep this a secret for me." Liszt put down the teacup and said calmly, "I've already found the location of my country's establishment. It's a huge archipelago with a surface area far larger than the Grand Duchy of Sapphire. I've already started developing this Flame Archipelago."
Roland was stunned. "An archipelago larger than Sapphire?"
The fire in his heart quickly burned. The total area of the Sapphire Islands was about two million square kilometers, and there were still many undeveloped islands. If the Flame Archipelago was larger than the Sapphire Archipelago, wouldn't there be more undeveloped islands? One could imagine how much manpower Liszt would need to develop them.
"The Flame Archipelago is about twice the size of the Sapphire Archipelago. It is extremely difficult to develop it, especially due to the lack of population, which severely restricts the establishment of a country. Therefore, I am preparing to plunder the population of the Eagle Kingdom over the next few years. Once my sea fleet is formed, I will launch a war alone! "
"Start a war alone?"
"Yes, taking advantage of the fact that the Eagle Kingdom is preoccupied with its own affairs, I will personally lead the plunder. It is very likely that the coastal areas of the Eagle Kingdom will be left empty."
Messiro could not help but sigh. "Leaving the coastal areas of the Eagle Kingdom empty? Liszt, can the Eagle Kingdom tolerate such a huge plunder?"
"So what if they can't tolerate it?" Liszt suddenly gave birth to an uncontrollable heroic spirit and blurted out, "Uncle, I never fight a battle I am not sure of. Unless the Eagle Kingdom sends all the Dragon Knight to fight with me in a dragon-slaying war, I have nothing to fear!"
"The Eagle Kingdom has five Dragon Knight!" Messiro felt that his nephew was somewhat arrogant.
"But I also have more than one dragon," Liszt said indifferently.
"Hmm?"
"Hmm?"
"What?"
Messiro, Roland, and Meopal all stared with their eyes wide open. "Liszt, this … what do you mean?"
Originally intending to keep it a secret, but unfortunately, he could not hold back for a while. Liszt simply no longer concealed it. "Carl Lo Violet died in battle, and the light green gem dragon has fallen into my hands. I am currently cultivating a Dragon Knight for the light green gem dragon. In addition, I have conquered another dragon on Blazing Island. At present, I have a total of three dragons."
Three dragons and a Magic Shooter.
The study room suddenly fell into absolute silence. Messiro and the other two were completely stunned and did not know what to say for a long time. In the end, it was Meopal who was able to accept it and asked in a trembling voice: "Liszt, my dear cousin, you are a Dragon Knight. I should not doubt you, but … do you really have three dragons?"
"There is no benefit in deceiving you, is there … Wait a moment, I will go and get something." After saying this, Liszt got up and left the study room, walking towards the bedroom arranged for him by the Longtaro Castle. This was just an act. In fact, he had already taken out a few light green gems from his space ring on the way.
The invisible dragon needed to be kept a secret for the time being.
The news of the Holy Dragon had to wait until he was fully fledged before it could be exposed. Otherwise, it would attract too much hatred.
First, he revealed the light green gem dragon. Perhaps it would not take long for it to reach the ears of the Sapphire Grand Duke, and then slowly spread to the Eagle Kingdom and the Steel Ridge Kingdom. However, he was not afraid of the news leaking. The deterrence of the three-headed dragon was enough to allow Liszt to move unfettered across the sea.
Moreover, sooner or later, the light green gems would be sold in exchange for resources, and the Eagle Kingdom would naturally know about it. At that time, it would depend on whether they would dare to come and ask for the light green gem dragon.
It would not be a big deal if a dragon-slaying battle occurred.
In any case, the Flame Archipelago was impoverished. He had the invisible dragon to hide his body and A Qi to control the seawater. If he could not win, he could just run away. Once the Dragon Knight of the Eagle Kingdom left, the Flame Archipelago would be rebuilt. However, at that time, the hatred would be sown, and the Eagle Kingdom would no longer have peace. The Dragon Knight of the Eagle Kingdom would also have to be careful of being assassinated.
In short, Liszt was not afraid!
He now left the study room to give his uncle and uncle time to digest the news.
… …
In the study room.
Meopal was already scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously: "Father, Uncle, Liszt has a three-headed dragon!"
"Messiro, do you think this is true? A three-headed dragon, ah, a three-headed dragon, this is simply unimaginable!"
Messiro forced himself to calm down and muttered to himself: "Liszt has a steady character, he will not lie. Moreover, the light green gem dragon is missing, and the only one who can find this dragon in the sea is probably that Archmage Achilles Ides … As for the other dragon, with him and His Excellency Achilles Ides joining hands, it would not be difficult to conquer it!"
A Qi's reputation was far more resounding than that of Liszt.
After all, an Archmage had not been born for hundreds of years. At the time of the dragon-slaying battle, A Qi's magic caused a far more shocking scene than the Dragon Knight, who was more focused on physical combat, leaving a deep impression on everyone. It could be said that after that battle, when the true overlord of the Azure Waves Sea was mentioned, everyone would first think of A Qi.
The Dragon Knight could not control water, while the Archmage could control the sea as if it were clay.
With Messiro's analysis, Roland and Meopal believed that Liszt indeed had a three-headed dragon. The three-headed dragon and the Archmage were such huge forces that they were more than enough to establish a maritime kingdom.
Roland clenched his fist on the spot.
Breathing heavily, he said: "Messiro, I plan to follow Liszt to the Flame Archipelago. I wonder if you have any objections?"
Messiro narrowed his eyes: "I wish the Pinecone Family prosperity in the Flame Archipelago!"
Roland heaved a sigh of relief: "Thank you!"
