Era of Castles: Starting with 99 Dragon Eggs

Now everyone understood that Mike was sending a signal to them: Don’t try to reason with him, or he will talk a lot of sense to you. He only has one thing to say, and that is that if you follow him, you will have meat to eat, if you don’t follow him, all the dirty and tiring work will be yours. And the other thing was that Mike was practically telling everyone that he was here to form gangs. Can’t stand it? Then go ahead and sue me.

Mike looked at everyone and smiled. “Does anyone have any other opinions?”

Everyone shook their heads.

Mike smiled. “Then go back to what you should be doing. Rest up and prepare for the enemy’s counterattack at any time.”

Everyone accepted the order and went to do their own things.

Mike walked into a building and found that Savannah had followed him in.

“What are you doing?” Mike actually understood in his heart. He was now rapidly thinking of countermeasures in his mind.

Savannah’s face was red. She reached out and rubbed Mike’s body. She said to him, “Don’t talk. Kiss me.”

Mike frowned. He mobilized the power of heaven and earth to stabilize savannah and said to her, “I said three points. First, you seem to understand why I value you so much. What I need is someone who can fight, not a vase who only wants to use her body to please me. Second, I have a wife. Third, don’t do this again in the future.”

After Mike finished speaking, he walked out of the building, leaving only Savannah, who was crying on the spot.

Savannah cried bitterly. She understood that she had taken the wrong path. From now on, she had no dignity in front of Mike.

...

The Ruler looked at the guard kneeling in front of him and asked, “Repeat what happened just now? Why did Mike attack you?”

The guard cried and repeated what had just happened to the Leader.

The Ruler looked at the guard, feeling both angry and amused. He looked at the guard and said, “Do you know who you are treating like this? Not to mention you, even I can’t treat him like this.”

“Ah?” The guard was stunned on the spot. He did not understand what the Leader meant, and he was extremely afraid.

The guard steeled his heart and decided to say that Mike’s actions were too much. At the very least, it had to be enough to put Mike to death.

He simply said, “Ruler, what you said was actually similar to what Mike said. Mike also said the same thing. He said that even you wouldn’t dare to treat him like that, let alone a small pawn like me? Moreover, when he hit me, the powerhouses he brought actually helped him stop my men. Your Majesty, I’m representing you. That group of people doesn’t even want to give you face anymore.”

The smile on the Ruler’s face gradually disappeared and was gradually covered by frost. He looked at the guard and asked,

“Is what you said true?”

The guard laughed in his heart. He understood that when the Ruler asked this question, he already believed at least 70-80% of it.

“Perhaps I was too angry that I lost my mind, but I can still remember clearly what they said and did.”

The Ruler’s expression suddenly returned to calm as he said to the guard, “You can go back first. I’ll give you justice for your matter.”

The guard knew that there was no point in saying anything else, so he stood up and took his leave.

A microphone appeared in the Ruler’s hand, and he read the contents.

It was sent from the front line. The contents mainly described the process of Mike retreating from the enemy, and it emphasized the existence of the four types of barriers. At the end of the intelligence report, the informant used a considerable amount of space to write about the incident of the guard being beaten up, the Ruler took a closer look and realized that the guards were not exaggerating. Mike had really said that. Those divine-tier experts had really done it.

The Ruler leaned against the back of his chair, rubbed his temples, and muttered, “Mike, oh, Mike, how exactly should I deal with you?”

The Ruler said to the shadow in the darkness, “From the looks of it, the flattery strategy you mentioned isn’t very effective. Although Mike is young and lacks experience, he is an extremely shrewd person. From the looks of it now, he has probably already seen through our strategy. Therefore, we should change our strategy.

The person in the shadow did not reply. He was prepared to be a listener.

The Ruler said, “How about this, you go to the front line. Bring ten palace guardians and follow those heaven-tier soldiers to the front line. Your goal is to keep an eye on Mike and prevent him from further developing his power. If there’s a chance, think of a way to get rid of those who are close to Mike.”

The person in the shadows walked out. He bowed to the Ruler and said, “Guardian receives the order.”

...

Mike was currently looking at the map. He had already completed the construction of the first line of defense. According to his estimation, the Alliance Leader was here for him. Now that he was on guard, the Alliance Leader probably would not act rashly anymore.

Now, he was only waiting for the backbone of the heaven-tier and high-tier troops to come and help him complete the construction of the second line of defense.

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside. Mike frowned. He released his spiritual power, wanting to check out the situation outside.

Bert opened the tent door and walked in. He cupped his fists and said to Mike,

“Sir, someone came from the dungeon.” 𝒇r𝙚𝙚𝓌𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜𝘷𝗲𝘭.c૦𝑚

Mike frowned and said to Bert, “Take me to have a look.”

Mike came in front of the person who came from the dungeon. When he saw the person’s appearance clearly, he was secretly shocked.

When the person saw Mike, he bowed slightly and said with a smile, “The Guardian greets Sir Mike.”

Mike said, “Sir Guardian, please get up quickly.” f𝑟𝑒ewe𝚋𝚗૦𝐯e𝘭.c𝗼𝓂

The Guardian smiled and looked at Mike:

“His Majesty heard about the Battle of Dawnlight City and the enemy sent twice as many of us. He was very anxious and sent guards to help. He did not expect the guards to be so perfunctory and put everyone in a dangerous position. We did something wrong. I apologize to everyone here.”

Seeing this, everyone immediately said that there was no need to apologize.

Those standing here were all old monsters who had lived for thousands of years. They all knew that the Guardian was definitely not here to apologize to them. In fact, their original plan did not include an apology. It might have been a spur-of-the-moment idea, and it was just to give face to this group of people.

Everyone did not plan to dwell on this matter. They looked at Mike, wanting him to make the decision.

Mike walked forward and said to the Guardian, “Guardian, may I have a word with you?”

The Guardian smiled and said, “What can’t you say it here?”

“I naturally trust them, but who knows if there’s a recording barrier left behind by the Gods here?”

The Guardian looked around and nodded. He said to Mike, “Alright, we’ll do as Lord Mike says. We’ll find a safe enemy to talk to.”

Mike smiled and nodded. He brought the Guardian to the previous building.

The Guardian looked around and did not find any type of barrier. He was relieved and asked, “Lord Mike, what’s the matter? Please speak.”

Mike nodded and said to the Guardian, “Guardian, there are spies in the team. On one hand, they work for the Dark Magi, and on the other hand, they report false information to the dungeon, trying to sow discord between me and the Ruler.”

“Oh.” The Guardian could not help but look down on Mike in his heart. He asked, “In that case, Mike, what measures have you taken?”

Mike shook his head and said, “No, I don’t want to alarm the snake. At the moment, I only told you my guess. I hope you can be vigilant about this matter and don’t fall for the instigation of someone with ulterior motives.”

The Guardian nodded. He looked at Mike and said, “Mike, don’t worry. I will definitely pay attention to this matter.”

Mike nodded and took out the map. He told the Guardian his deployment without reservation.

After the Guardian heard it, he praised, “The arrangement is reasonable and perfect.”

Mike smiled and said, “Lord Guardian, don’t you have any suggestions?”

The Guardian shook his head and said to Mike, “What suggestions can I have? Lord Mike has done very well. I believe that this defensive system will definitely be able to withstand the attacks.”
