Chapter 198 - Gilbert’s Ambition
Chapter 198: Gilbert’s Ambition
Locke did not know why he wanted to summon the Golden Dragon when he was angry earlier.
Perhaps it was because Locke was too angry and wanted to use his strongest power or Battle Beast to release his anger.
The Golden Dragon’s body was close to ten meters!
When it spread its wings, its width was at least close to twenty meters!
The sun was high in the sky and the scales of the Golden Dragon were shining brightly under the sunlight!
The people on the ground covered the sunlight with their hands and looked at the dragon’s shadow in the sky!
When they flew past Adelaide’s manor no. 6, Löw and his master looked at the Golden Dragon and said, “It’s… It’s too perfect…”
Locke could not be bothered with these things. He took out his cell phone and dialed Dickens’s number.
“Boss! I found a precious Daemon meat today. Do you want to…”
Before Dickens could finish, Locke interrupted. “Cut the crap, send me a copy of the nearest air route to Wind City right away…”
After saying that, Locke hung up the phone.
Hearing his boss’ cold and bone-chilling tone, Dickens felt a shiver ran down his spine.
After being stunned for two seconds, Dickens looked at the workers in the office and hurriedly said, “Quick! Go and ask those map merchants for a copy of the nearest air route to Wind City! Get the electronic version so it can be sent right away! Hurry! I want to see it in ten minutes! Otherwise, tell them to get out of the Holy City!”
Dickens was very efficient. In about six minutes, Locke had received the electronic map.
It had to be said that it was really far. According to Golden Dragon’s current speed, it would take at least seven hours.
At this moment, the phone rang.
“My friend! I know you’re very angry! But I promise, you’ll reach Wind City before the sun sets!” Adelaide’s voice was very confident.
At this moment, a unique aircraft with a special gliding sound appeared behind Locke.
“This is a gift from the family that specializes in mechanical Battle Beasts in the Fire City. There are only two seats on the aircraft! Its speed is beyond your imagination!”
The master who controlled this mechanical Battle Beast immediately caught up. He deliberately maintained the same position as the Golden Dragon and made a “jump over” gesture to Locke.
“Thank you!” Locke focused his eyes. He hung up the phone, stood on the back of the dragon, and jumped into the seat of the aircraft.
“Mr. Locke! I’m happy to serve you! Please sit tight!” The man in front of Locke immediately activated the mana in his body and the plane accelerated toward the east!
…
“This old thing is still so thin…” Gilbert, who was on the throne, looked at Hobrick, who was lying on the carpet in the palace and had not woken up yet.
More than ten years ago, the two of them had the honor of meeting each other in the Heavenly Perfecture.
The two people kneeling next to Hobrick bowed again.
Duke Freeman was the first to speak. “My King! According to the old thing, Locke’s current location is the Royal Palace in Heavenly City…”
Earl Cook immediately said, “We can contact Secretary Peter and ask them to hand Locke over!”
Facing the royal family, they already lacked the most basic respect.
However, Gilbert did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. He said, “That old guy shouldn’t refuse my request…”
“Of course! We want the person so more or less there’s a legal basis. If he refuses, we’ll have an excuse to take advantage of the opportunity to do something…” The first prince, Francisco, had a hidden meaning in his words.
“Big Brother is right! Right now, our Frederick family is at its most powerful and we already have the capital to fight against them. I say it’s best if they refuse! Then, we’ll take down the wealthy Holy City first and seize the entire southeast area… I believe that the fate of the family is about to change!”
The second prince, Orlando, was only one step away from saying the word “rebellion”!
Gilbert sized up his two heroic sons with gratification.
It was not until a few minutes later that he slowly spoke, “Freeman… You’re in charge of the army. Tell our warriors to focus on training their Battle Beasts for the next half a month. We can set off at any time.”
“My King is wise! Your subordinate will do it immediately!” After getting up, Freeman’s eyes were moved! If the Frederick family could ascend to the throne, then as the Grand Marshal of Wind City, he would definitely be able to obtain the title of King!
“Cook… I’ll leave the matter of contacting the royal family to you. However, you should understand what my two sons just said, right?” Gilbert looked at the usually meticulous Earl Cook and said.
“My King is wise! I promise they’ll be angered by me!” After saying that, Earl Cook also walked out of the hall.
“Orlando. You’re in charge of the prison matters. Keep an eye on this old man. If everything goes smoothly, his head will be the gift we offer to the gods on the day of the expedition.”
“Father, I understand!” Orlando summoned two guards and walked out with the unconscious Hobrick.
Gilbert had been thinking about the position of the Federation’s King day and night. As early as a year ago, his subordinates had been constantly encouraging him.
Nowadays, whether it was an army of Beastmasters in Wind City or the logistics in various areas, they had all met the conditions to mobilize an army.
All Gilbert needed now was an excuse to start a war! In his opinion, the old king had been muddle-headed for a long time!
Under the loose rule of this old man for more than 30 years, the current Federation had already made the commoners more and more impudent!
If it was not for Gilbert demanding that Wind City still abide by the ancient etiquette, these commoners would sooner or later cause a ruckus!
If this continued, would not there be no distinction between superiority and inferiority?
The commoners would always be the commoners! They must obey the governance of the nobles!
Gilbert, as the king of the new era, would use these nobles to complete the ultimate rule! The entire continent must submit to his feet!
After that, he would leave this continent and conquer even further regions!
Not only would Gilbert become the king of this continent but he would also become the only supreme being in the entire world!
This was the world that Gilbert had been waiting for from his father’s generation! Now, he finally had a chance to realize it!
“I’m really grateful to that lowlife named Locke. If possible, I really want to gift him a city as his prize…”
With his sharp senses, Gilbert knew that this unremarkable fellow was the key person who had stirred up this opportunity!
However, he could not let this kid live. Otherwise, his new law would not be able to be enforced.
Gilbert was the only one who was supreme!
This was an ideal that had to be achieved!
From now on, no one could challenge the authority of his family! Not even a little bit!
Thinking of this, Gilbert’s heart grew even more excited! He brought the first prince to the corridor outside the Royal Palace. Looking at the setting sun in the direction of Heavenly Prefecture, he muttered, “Old thing, it’s time for you to abdicate and rest…”
