Fernandro Principality's capital, Narona City, within the Royal Palace.
A blue-haired, blue-eyed, aquiline nose, a burly bear-like man sat on the main seat, his gaze brimming with ice-cold majesty.
This blue-haired, blue-eyed man was the current Archduke Fernandro.
This generation's Archduke Fernandro was one of the most outstanding Archdukes in Fernandro Principality's history.
Under his leadership, the entire Fernandro Principality was thriving, several times more prosperous than in the past.
Under the gaze of Archduke Fernandro, the ministers below were somewhat restless and somewhat fearful.
Archduke Fernandro was clear about rewards and punishments, the rewards were definitely generous, but the punishments were also definitely hard to bear.
Archduke Fernandro spoke in a low voice, stressing each syllable: "I want to know the origin of Steel Lord Yang Ye!"
The ministers present all lowered their heads, not daring to look Archduke Fernandro in the eye.
Yang Feng had just emerged for less than half a year, the gazes of these ministers previously practically didn't pay attention to that remote corner of Autumn-Leaf Town.
No one would have thought that in a short span of less than three months, even Black City would fall into enemy hands.
Archduke Fernandro's gaze turned around and fell on a middle-aged man with already somewhat grizzled hair.
That middle-aged man was Fernandro Principality's Minister of Defense, Archer.
Archer said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, according to the intelligence, Autumn-Leaf Town's Zhao Jiang suddenly occupied Black-Rock Town more than two months ago.
He was the commander of Steel Lord Yang Ye's mechanical golem legion.
Immediately after, Giant-Stone City dispatched troops to suppress the rebels, but they were defeated by Steel Lord's mechanical golem legion.
Then Steel Lord Yang Ye's mechanical golem legion once again raided Black City and killed Grandmaster Bonney.
According to my conjecture, Zhao Jiang is very likely to have obtained Sixth Dynasty's relics, as well as Sixth Dynasty's mechanical golem legion. "
"Sixth Dynasty!"
"That mechanical golem legion is a product of Sixth Dynasty?"
"Sixth Dynasty's mechanical golem legion is a terrifying existence capable of slaughtering gods!
If that's really Sixth Dynasty's mechanical golem legion, then how can we possibly resist them? "
"…"
Hearing the name Sixth Dynasty, the complexions of all the ministers at once became incomparably pale, and they discussed spiritedly.
Among the 8 Great Warlock Dynasties, the 2nd Warlock Dynasty was brimming with all kinds of taboo experiments.
The Sixth Dynasty was a dynasty that specialized in forging all kinds of secret treasures.
The Sixth Dynasty was also called the Secret Treasure Dynasty.
Mechanical Marionettes were a powerful battle weapon developed by the Secret Treasure Dynasty. During the Sixth Dynasty, the Mechanical Marionette Army of the Sixth Dynasty had also conquered many planes and slaughtered countless gods and demons from those planes.
The Sixth Dynasty's greatest masterpiece, the King of Mechanical Golems, Arkante, was one of the most powerful existences.
Later, for some unknown reason, under the temptation of the Devil, Arkante led one-third of his mechanical golem legion to rebel against the Sixth Dynasty, which led to the destruction of the Sixth Dynasty.
After the destruction of the 6th Dynasty, Arkante drifted to a powerful prime material plane, occupied that prime material plane, and became the ruler of that prime material plane.
The Prime Material Plane was now called the Machine and an Apple Plane.
It was also one of the most powerful and terrifying planes known to mankind.
Many demons and gods had gone to the plane of 'A Machine and an Apple' in an attempt to kill Arkante, who was said to be very weak.
But all the powerful existences that went to that plane were turned into specimens, and hung in front of the Mechanical Gate.
Over time, no powerful existences dared to go to the plane of 'A Machine and an Apple'.
The Sixth Dynasty's Mechanical Marionette Army was so fierce and powerful.
If any soldier of the Sixth Dynasty's strongest Mechanical Marionette Army went to Turandot Subcontinent, they could completely sweep the entire Turandot Subcontinent, and no one would be able to match them.
Archer said in a deep voice: "Everyone, don't panic.
Even if he obtained the Sixth Dynasty's Mechanical Marionette Army, the original Mechanical Marionette Army already doesn't have much power.
According to the information we obtained, those Mechanical Marionettes currently only have Knight rank battle strength.
Moreover, most of them are close combat type Mechanical Marionettes, and should be some defective goods. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been so easily obtained by him.
As long as we use the Blood Bat Battle Knights, we can easily annihilate them. "
"Blood Bat Battle Knights!
If it's them, they should be able to annihilate those Mechanical Marionettes! "
"If it's just Knight rank Marionettes, there's no need to worry!"
"They're all antiques from hundreds of thousands of years ago!
They shouldn't have much power left. "
"…"
The complexions of the Fernandro Principality's ministers became slightly better, and they unceasingly consoled themselves.
If it was the Sixth Dynasty's elite Mechanical Marionette Army that could slaughter demons and gods, then they absolutely wouldn't be able to resist.
However, they still had the confidence to resist one or two defective goods.
Archduke Fernandro said unhurriedly: "Snake Evil Eyes and White Bear Fangs have also agreed to form an alliance with us to annihilate Yang Ye.
I need the parliament's authorization to mobilize 100,000 Magic Stones as military expenditure. "
Magic Stones were a kind of energy crystallization with mysterious power. The diameter of a standard sized Magic Stone was approximately the size of an adult's index finger.
Magic Stones were treasures that were used in Alchemy, Golemology and all kinds of rituals.
Magic Stones were also the unit of measurement in the World of Warlocks.
The price of a Magic Stone was approximately 100 Gold Coins, which was equivalent to 200,000 Copper Coins.
100,000 Magic Stones were equivalent to 10,000,000 Gold Coins, or 2 billion Copper Coins.
Archduke Fernandro also needed the parliament's authorization to mobilize this huge sum of money.
"Agreed!"
"Your Majesty, I'll definitely spare no effort, this motion will be passed by the parliament!"
"…"
The ministers seconded the motion one after another.
A day later, Fernandro's parliament convened in secret, and the motion to mobilize 100,000 Magic Stones was passed at an extremely fast speed.
Three days later.
Blood Dragon Mountain Range was located approximately 100km north of Fernandro Principality's capital, it was a vast mountain range shrouded in endless forests.
Blood Dragon Mountain Range completely belonged to Fernandro Family, apart from those who were recognized by Fernandro Family, anyone who entered Blood Dragon Mountain Range would be directly executed.
Blood Dragon Mountain Range was extremely rich in natural resources, Fernandro Family could obtain enormous wealth from Blood Dragon Mountain Range every year.
In the depths of Blood Dragon Mountain Range was a valley surrounded by several-hundred-meter-tall mountain peaks, it was covered with caves of various sizes.
From time to time, there would be huge bats with a wingspan of up to 10m, their bodies seemingly dyed red with blood, and their mouths full of sharp fangs flying out of those caves.
