Ch. 138 - The Appearance of Competitors

Amos thought, ‘There is no conflict of interest between White Castle and Lowe Kingdom, but there are many areas of cooperation. I am not in a hurry to return to the White Castle, and it does not hurt to take some time to meet each other.’

"I am honored to be able to visit the Baines family."

After completing the task assigned by the king, Jax finally let go of his anxiety. After calling someone to take over his duty of guarding the portal, he brought the white dragon to the outside of Lowe Kingdom.

Amos raised his head and looked at the city wall in front of him. The ancient tall city wall was full of sword marks and renovation scars. These wounds told the immortal tale of prosperous years of the Lowe Kingdom.

The Kingdom of Lowe had been founded for thousands of years. The capital city of Sabel has also fallen several times and has undergone many reconstructions. However, the Royal Palace of Lowe had always stood firm. In times of crisis, it had become the heart of the Lowe people.

The palace where the king lives was the face of a country, and it was also the last line of defense. As long as the palace did not fall into enemy hands, the country would still have its backbone, and those nobles and ordinary people who fought for it would work together to fight against the enemy.

After passing through the deep city gate tunnel and a layer of magic enchantment, the white dragon finally entered the palace.

The Royal Palace of Lowe inherited the rough and bold architectural style of the northerners. There were no fancy flowers. In the simple lawn and woods, tall and imposing warrior statues were placed everywhere.

The statues of the warriors had different shapes and stances. Some were aggressive while some stood quietly with a sword... But without exception, they were all muscular and powerful, reflecting the strong martial arts of the Lowe Kingdom.

Amos followed Jax through the marble floor road lined with guards, and arrived at a majestic palace.

On each side of the palace gate stood four high David soldiers wearing full-body armor. Amos glanced around and found that these eight guards had high-level strength.

The soldiers who had received the news in advance pushed open the palace door for one person and one dragon. The small white dragon walked into the political center of the Lowe Kingdom and saw a young man sitting on the throne.

The man was estimated to be under thirty, with a beard that was common to northerners, and his eyes were clear and bright. Even if he was firmly seated on the throne, he still carried his long sword with him and hung it on the belt around his waist.

Behind him, a tall knight wearing heavy armor that only showed his eyes stood with a sword. The knight was dressed in a black silk cloak with a snow-white shield emblem embroidery.

This was one of the three legendary professionals of the Lowe Kingdom, the legendary guardian knight-Masefield David.

As a guest, Amos first nodded slightly to King Baines XXI on the throne to show respect.

"It's an honor to visit you, King Baines XXI."

The strength of the white dragon was comparable to that of the legend, and as the head of another force, his status was equal to that of the King of Lowe, so there was nothing wrong with this approach.

The king had an enthusiastic smile on his face, and his voice carried the heroic characteristic of the northern peoples.

"Hahaha, Lowe Kingdom welcomes your visit. Lord Amos, Lord of the Thousand Islands, the letter of your uncle mentioned your help to Pele City many times."

The king stood up with a serious expression, and bowed ninety degrees.

"On behalf of all the citizens of Pele City, I thank Lord Amos for his life-saving grace."

King Baines XXI suddenly performed this heavy salute, which surprised the white dragon lord, but Amos quickly reacted, and thought that he was able to eliminate the brothers and sit on the throne of the king, so he must not be a simple figure.

The King of Lowe was rough and bold on the surface, but he was actually kind and refined. On behalf of the citizens of Pele, he saluted the white dragon lord. Not only would it not damage the king’s majesty, but would give him a good reputation for loving the people, and he could also instantly draw closer with the white dragon.

Because regardless of whether it was a show or gratitude from the heart, King Baines XXI, as the king of Lowe, being able to salute the white dragon in his own territory, fully reflected the importance he attached to the white dragon.

Under the intentional friendship between the two sides, Amos and the King of Lowe had a cordial and friendly exchange, each expressed their importance to the friendship between the two sides, and finally shifted the topic to the current situation in the overseas islands.

"Your Excellency Amos, the current three main islands of the overseas archipelago, or the two main islands, have legendary beasts on them. If you need the assistance of the Lowe Kingdom, please speak up."

After a lot of nutritious diplomatic exchanges, one person and one dragon was finally involved in the distribution of the interests of the overseas islands. Although King Baines’ words were nice, the meaning was already obvious. Only the Amos family couldn't deal with the overseas islands in a short time. As long as Amos agreed to give up some of the benefits, the Lowe Kingdom was ready to join hands with White Castle to develop overseas islands.

If it was before, Amos would seriously consider the king’s proposal, but now, he had a legendary gray dwarf warrior. If Amos and the gray dwarf prince joined forces to deal with the legendary beasts on the scattered sand, one by one, defeat and conquer them, the problem would not be big.

"If necessary, I will contact Your Majesty as soon as possible. I am afraid that the humid climate and the unique environment of the venomous miasma in the overseas archipelago is not very friendly to mankind."

Amos' ambiguous answer made the king unable to guess what he was thinking, but the promise of the white dragon lord to choose the Lowe Kingdom first as a partner was also rewarding.

But King Baines XXI still wanted to fight for it and threw another heavy bargaining chip.

"Your Excellency Amos, a few days ago, I got bad news. Lowe’s enemy, the Pavran Kingdom’s court, started a debate about overseas islands. Expansionists and conservatives are arguing endlessly. Recently, the expansionists have occupied the upper peak, and King Pavran has decided to explore the overseas islands."

The Kingdom of Pavran and the Kingdom of Lowe were rivals. Both sides want to annex each other and become the strongest kingdom in the north. However, the strength of the two countries was equal. Therefore, the war between the two sides had been lost and won, but they had been unable to nail each other.

The hatred accumulated from many wars had filled the people of the two countries with hatred towards each other, almost to the point of water and fire which could not coexist.

The three legendary powerhouses of the Lowe Kingdom reconciled the civil war. In addition to the perennial war which brought huge losses to the kingdom, the most important point was the pressure on the border from the Kingdom of Pavran.

Therefore, King Baines XXI told the news to Amos. On one hand, he told Amos a favor, and on the other hand he added obstacles to his enemies. It could be described as killing two birds with one stone.

"Thank you for the message."

Amos sneered in his heart. The overseas islands had already become his own territory. Any organization or individual that dared to stretch out the wrong hand must be prepared to endure the anger of White Castle.

If the king of Pavran Kingdom transformed his ideas into actual actions, then war was inevitable!
