Chapter 1030: Chapter 1027: Here Comes the Brother
“Thank you, Marquis Li Weiliam for the grand welcome and His Majesty Liszt for your concern,” Piero Grey Iron’s heart has longed for the Flame Kingdom, and now, at last, I have set foot upon the soil of Flame Island. In the days to come, I will dedicate all the loyalty of myself and the Grey Iron Family to this land.”
“Now, please allow me to introduce the gentlemen behind me. They are knights who once charged bravely for the Grey Iron Duchy and they are not lacking in loyalty and integrity!”
“Marquis Mendes Cabbage, a Completion Level Sky Knight…”
Ahead, the nobles, under the mutual introductions of Duke Pierro and Marquis Li Weiliam, bore the still scorching September sun with fiery enthusiasm as they socialized.
Wald Bumblebee was full of envy; he too wished to be part of the nobles, but at present, he was just a little lackey behind them. However, that was of no consequence, for after coming to the Flame Kingdom, all nobles would no longer be followers of Duke Pierro Grey Iron.
They would all follow Liszt Flame.
“I am not strong enough yet, but I am young enough, and I persist every day in taking the royal jelly produced by my family, which rivals magic potions, and I already vaguely sense an imminent breakthrough beyond the Earth Knight limits… My future is above the skies, and the Bear Bee Clan will also become true nobles!”
There were actually many nobles with a mindset similar to Wald’s. Every knight who had migrated thousands of miles to the Flame Kingdom hoped to make their fortune here.
Liszt’s legendary stance was like a flag, attracting ambitious knights to gather around.
Many countries at the start of their creation would attract talent in this way, with the personal charm of the monarch leading his followers to brave the thorns and till a brilliant career.

…
Because they were not captives but knights who had migrated.
Therefore, this migrating party of one duke, four marquises, seventeen earls, thirty-eight viscounts, and a large number of barons and honored knights were able to be quickly put to important use upon their arrival in the Flame Kingdom. Aside from lands that had to be allocated after the establishment of the kingdom, all other treatments were the same as before.
Liszt did not meet with these individuals straight away, as he was busy building a Dragon Nest for the Aluminum Dragon.
The Aluminum Dragon was not demanding about living conditions, but it did have a fondness for things that shone with silver light, and it had to be the unique luster of metallic silver, not counterfeit. Therefore, Liszt directly constructed a huge Dragon Nest clad in metallic silver near the Flame King City.
Right in a cave hollowed out of the mountain—the Aluminum Dragon liked to live in caves.
At the entrance of the cave, there was also a lake, filled not with water but with mercury. The abundant mercury mined from the mercury mines of Dragon Valley City didn’t have much use yet. In fact, most resources were transported to be stored at Flame King City, the private property of the Flame Family.
During the construction of the King’s Castle, a pile of warehouses would be built around the Moon Slayer Sacred Mountain, used to store materials.
Once the land around the Flame King City was developed, even the elves would move here—apart from the King’s Castle and several major cities, other cities would be allocated to nobles of the Burning Legion, as the direct Knight Order of the Flame Family, who normally had to sustain themselves on their own fiefdoms.
Many of the national systems designed by Liszt borrowed from the form of the Sapphire Duchy; the Sapphire Family created the Blue Blood Alliance, and he intended to create a Burning Legion.
Of course.
Most kingdoms were like that.
The knight system itself was a societal system that was difficult to define in terms of national structures. Essentially, a king was not much different from a great noble, apart from having a larger territory, more followers, more resources, a relatively better-structured management system, and more centralized family power.
“How do you like this place? For this silver lair, I have melted down entire ten million silver coins to create such a large space.”
“Roar!”
The Aluminum Dragon stood at the entrance to the Dragon Nest, first lowering its head to look at the mercury lake at the mouth of the cave, then surveying the Dragon Nest, issuing its opinion—it was mediocre at best. While it looked quite pretty, the lack of a full silver interior was disappointing; merely silver-plated, it didn’t meet its taste standards.
“Be content, you know I’ve melted down all the scavenged silver coins. Fortunately, the Flame Kingdom hasn’t begun to bestow fiefs yet; we can barter goods for goods. Otherwise, the shortage of silver coins would directly lead to the collapse of the monetary system. I’ll buy more silver coins later and recast the Dragon Nest for you.”
“Roar!”
The Aluminum Dragon grudgingly agreed.
At this moment, Liszt, stroking its scales, said, “Now that you have moved into the new Dragon Nest, you should have a new name—I’ve got it all prepared for you… let’s call you Connor.”
Connor, a rather common name.
“Roar!” The Aluminum Dragon showed little interest in the name, reluctantly accepting it without inquiring about its meaning. Even if it asked, Liszt wouldn’t say, because that name came from memories of another world.
There was a movie called “Terminator”, where the protagonist, human leader John Connor, battled Terminator robots. And the major villain in the sequel, T-1000, was a type of infiltrator Terminator, also known as a liquid metal robot. Conveniently, once the Aluminum Dragon fully matured, it would also be able to liquefy.
It wouldn’t work to call the Aluminum Dragon T-1000, so Liszt simply named it Connor.
Before the Aluminum Dragon had time to get used to its new Dragon Nest, suddenly a loud dragon cry “ho-ho” sounded. It was the Mountain Copper Dragon Mata flying over, its Dragon Nest situated not far from that of Connor.
“Roar!”
Aluminum Dragon Connor sensed the presence of the Mountain Copper Dragon Mata and instantly raised its scales on end, standing at the entrance of the Dragon Nest, glowering fiercely at the sky.
Approaching from the direction of the sun, the Mountain Copper Dragon Mata, radiating a golden glow, arrived at the territory of the Aluminum Dragon with a domineering presence.
Its form was robust, shining so gold it was dazzling.
Connor was slender, with scales that were gray-white and lacked any luster.
Compared like this, the Aluminum Dragon seemed just like an ordinary beast, lacking the nobility and splendor of the Mountain Copper Dragon.
“Ho-ho!”
“Roar!”
The two dragons glared at each other, neither backing down, both ready to attack. Seeing this, Liszt sighed; having many dragons introduced competition, which was troublesome. It would be somewhat better if they were dragons of different Knights, but the key was that they were all Liszt’s dragons.
None liked it when their rider formed a close relationship with other dragons.
“Mata, return to your Dragon Nest!” Liszt was someone who desired strong control and did not like his dragons crossing boundaries, “If you don’t go back, your treatment will be downgraded. You are a smart dragon and should know which choice is most beneficial for you.”
The Mountain Copper Dragon squinted at Liszt.
Then turned its head.
“Ho-ho!”
It let out a roar at Connor and then leisurely took flight, returning to its own Dragon Nest. In fact, it had come here just to assert its status. As an overpowering Magic Metal Dragon, the area around Flame King City was its territory—newcomer, be smart!
“Such a headache!”
After chasing away the Mountain Copper Dragon Mata and pacifying the Aluminum Dragon Connor, Liszt finally breathed a sigh of relief, ready to head to Jade City to host a banquet for newcomers like Duke Pierrot and the others.
