Chapter 1051 Bait

Malekith, who turned into bait, attracted the attention of all forces. Some people called him a madman, thinking that he could ignore the huge gap in military power with the blessing of Asuryan, and that the power of the gods could help Druzil reverse the situation.

Some people also believed that the Witch King chose to fight for the last time. After giving up the city of Naggaroth, Druzil no longer had the potential to continue the bloody battle with Asur for a thousand years. If this opportunity was lost, he would never be able to challenge the throne in the future.

Whether it was a negative or positive evaluation, it was a side description of Malekith's psychology, but it was undeniable that the Witch King was not a coward. He had extremely high confidence and pride in himself, and these paranoid thoughts were the basis for his survival for a thousand years.

At the Dragon Legion, the intelligence officer informed the monarch of the location of the Witch King, which caused some confusion and ridicule among the senior generals. They all thought that the Witch King was provoking and wanted to reverse the situation by luring him to behead.

But Caledor only needed to take steady steps and gradually advance to the north, and the fruits of victory would definitely belong to the Phoenix King of destiny.

Masno took the lead in proposing that the steady champion warrior did not want to participate in an inevitable melee. Even if Caledor could fight against Druzy, Khaine's followers and the Chaos Army at the same time, he should focus on the key targets.

"We only need to wait for the Legion to gradually recover the lost Nagarys territory, and Druzy's chances of winning will be increasingly reduced. The Witch King wants to hold a championship duel..."

"Your Highness will not lose, but we don't need to take such risks. Even if he has the power of Asuryan to protect himself, when he loses most of his troops, he can only end up dead."

The analysis of the champion warrior won the approval of most people. Don't mention the honor of duel with Druzy. If you can kill with dragon breath, never stab the throat with a long sword. The crossbow is just a long-range lance. From the results, it's the same.

"I agree. Malekith's defeat is doomed. This move is just his last struggle before death. Caledor will crush this expectation step by step and let the Witch King also experience the taste of revenge."

"Reconsideration."

The temporary high-level military meeting has a total of twelve people, except the Dragon Lord. Eight of them agree to move forward step by step. Two people proposed that Asarniel lead the fleet to bomb the Witch King's position into ruins, and the remaining two people wanted to call the dragon fleet to ride directly on his face.

Anyway, Malekith will not be given a fair chance to fight.

No matter how passionately the generals analyze the situation, the one who really has the decision-making power is still the Dragon Lord. The prince at the top of the military order is enough to ignore the vast majority of voices and forcibly execute orders.

And this time, it is difficult for Imrick to deny the reasonable ideas of a group of high-level generals.

"No, we need to participate in this melee."

The puzzled question mark is the main idea of ​​the meeting. From an emotional point of view, everyone wants to kill Malekith and put an end to thousands of years of hatred.

But...

Is it necessary to take risks? You must know that Malekith's direct army has almost no losses. The Lord of Oblivion, the Lord of the Black Tower of Naggarond, the Phoenix Guard, the Shadow, the Beast Legion... Even if the Dragon Legion is forced to encounter it, it will be a tough nut to crack.

Ignoring the reactions of the crowd, Imrick began to call out names, king against king, general against general. This is not only a military war, but also a game between divine power and royal power.

He needs to let the elven gods understand that from now on, mortals are no longer puppets.

"Edgar, you are responsible for leading the army and fighting any hostile forces."

"Masno, Davion, Bruni...Call back Asaniel and Edtalis, they can't miss this war."

"What about Agthor."

"Hehe, maybe he also wants to continue the last battle with Kuran Blackhand without a winner."

After talking about a series of key combat forces, Imrick pondered for a while, "Masno, you need to keep an eye on Tyrion's movements. I can't accept Cain rashly participating in the battle between me and Malekith."

Masno nodded to show that he understood. He saw what the prince was thinking. His Highness wanted to use a way that Malekith attempted to turn the tables to completely crush his ambitions.

Although it does not conform to normal judgment, it conforms to the psychological needs accumulated over thousands of years.

Considering that there is still a person who can influence the situation of the war, the champion warrior believes that it cannot be easily wasted.

"Aboraash, maybe we can use his power to create some trouble for Druz."

"Let him act freely, as long as he doesn't cause us trouble, I will remember the help of the Blood Dragon Ancestor to Caledor."

"Well... maybe Mishan and others."

"Let them deal with the Bride of Khorne, I believe Valkia will like this surprise."

After feeling that there was nothing to say, Chief Masnoon took the order, stepped back and gave the right to communicate to others, and began to ponder about Tyrion in his heart.

If he fought Tyrion holding the Holy Sword of Khaine, he would have a chance of winning.

Seeing that the important ministers had no doubts, Imrik looked around and asked,

"Any other questions?"

Old Edgar had something to say. He did not object to Imrik accepting the challenge of Malekith. The strength of the young prince was obvious to all.

But... for Ulthuan, is it a bit too arrogant to act so stubbornly?

"Should we ask Her Majesty the Queen for instructions on this matter? The coalition forces of the Inner Ring Kingdoms have gathered in Arion under the leadership of Lirazel and Gilgarion. Even though their militia is weak, the swordsmanship masters of Safri, the archers of Avalon, and Arion..."

The old general thought for a while, and still expressed his evaluation of him in the most sincere words.

"A bastard on horseback can barely be considered a good army."

What he was worried about was not the lack of military strength, but the fact that Imrik would become the Phoenix Queen. This war against Druz must be participated by all kingdoms, so that they would have a strong sense of identity with the leader who led Asur to defeat the Witch King.

The old man's concern made Imrik smile. Only these old men could consider the cause and effect and persuade him regardless of their status.

"Old man, do you think that except for Gilgarion who can talk back, who in the Inner Ring Kingdom will object to my coronation as the Phoenix King after the war is over?"

"Then there is no need to consider it." Edgar threw off the burden of the old minister without any burden. Compared with Prince Caledor who gained influence with military strength and results in the past, the political alliance of the young prince is undoubtedly more successful now.

Except for Gilgarion, who is always displeased, every kingdom leader is his firm strategic ally.

After no one questioned, Imrick tapped the armrest several times with his index finger, and said thoughtfully, "Draknir, let him stay at the Dragon Gate. Before the result of my battle with Malekith is known, Elvis will take over his duties temporarily."

The biological son and the illegitimate son, who is favored by the prince can be seen at a glance.

Everyone understood that Imrick was not worried about not being able to win, but if an accident really happened, the prince would have to take over the responsibility, carry the dragon flag and lead the kingdom to continue.

"By the way, don't forget our old friend, he shouldn't mind playing with the Chaos Army." (End of this chapter)
