Under the Red Dragon
#49 - Seemingly simple plan
In the deep, dark underground prison, Karon, who never placed much importance on the precise concept of time, had blurred his sense of it, but the daily feedings and the cheers from above the arena allowed him to grasp the passage of time.
Half a month had passed, and his sub-brain nodes had grown from one to six.
However, the time required for later nodes to develop increased, consuming most of his accumulated mental energy.
Karon's body nutrition also gradually couldn't keep up, lacking the abundant food in the Dragon Nest territory, and only receiving a fixed quota of three meals a day.
Now, the red dragon's body had become somewhat thin, although the frame was still large, it was obviously a lean dragon.
However, the dragon clan did not advocate thinness as beauty, and Karon preferred himself to be more mighty and magnificent, as that was more intimidating and aesthetically powerful.
Fortunately, the six fully developed sub-brain nodes had connected to form a sub-brain cluster, which was just enough to undertake the tasks Karon assigned to the division brain.
And the pixie, Pike, brought the red dragon good news.
"According to what you said, this emperor is extremely powerful, even formal apprentices accepted by high-level mages need to apply to the empire's administrative departments, it's good to be strong."
The red dragon's vertical pupils flickered with agile firelight in the shadow of his wings, it seemed that this emperor's desire for power was too strong, he wanted to suppress all forces within the empire.
"Except for direct nobles and mages who are loyal to this emperor, most other nobles and mages belong to the neutral camp, which explains a lot, no one wants an unshakable iron curtain looming over their heads," the red dragon looked at the pixie sitting in his palm.
No wonder the squint-eyed mage, Hughes, had hinted to him that he could help Karon. It seemed that the squint-eyed mage was an eye planted by the neutral camp in the loyal camp, and did not want the emperor's power to grow stronger.
If the growing dragon group was successfully absorbed by the emperor, it would be an extremely terrifying increase in power. So it seemed that Will Clarence and his family behind him should be in the camp loyal to the emperor.
The red dragon narrowed his eyes, many things and opportunities still needed to be seen by contacting Hughes, he said gently: "You've worked hard, Raven, next I'll have to trouble you to meet with the high disciple of that neutral faction mage, tell him I need to meet with him, maybe he'll be very interested in a deal."
"But don't go find him yourself, just have someone else pass on the message."
"Okay, but I have to get a good night's sleep first," the petite elf lay on the red dragon's warm palm, yawned a long yawn, and then gradually fell asleep.
The red dragon also habitually placed his wide palm flat on the ground, then chose a comfortable position for his head, rested on his other hand claw, closed his eyes, and quietly fell asleep.
As Karon chewed and swallowed the last bone of the whole pig that was sent as breakfast, the smiling mage was already standing at the door of the prison, observing the red dragon's every move.
"Long time no see, red dragon, I knew you were a smart dragon," the squint-eyed mage had a feeling of confidence.
Karon crouched down, his wings covered in dense scales folded at his side, his scarlet pupils looked at the mage who always had a mysterious smile on his face, and suddenly said unhappily: "Hey, mage, can you open your eyes when you talk."
?
The squint-eyed mage Hughes was stunned, and widened his eyes in surprise: "Am I (very dirty), are my eyes really that small?"
Karon did not answer the mage's question, a hint of a smile flashed in his scarlet vertical pupils, and then he seriously changed the subject, "Speak, mage, what can you do to help me."
Huff, Hughes exhaled, and habitually squinted his eyes again, he shook his head, "If you had agreed to cooperate before, we might have been able to intercept you in advance, as long as you voluntarily signed a contract with me, even the emperor would recognize this fact."
"But now the emperor has taken over the ownership of the dragon group, he intends to tame you and that red dragon, as his most powerful war tools, guarding the royal family's war beasts, even if my teacher is a Saint-level Archmage, he cannot get your ownership back."
Karon knew the mage's plan well, saying he was helping him, but he just wanted to subdue him, and then control the power of the dragon group through him.
But hearing the emperor's decision, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart, a spark of fire spewed from the red dragon's nostrils, and a low voice echoed in the empty passage, "Then you came here just to tease me, mage?"
The squint-eyed mage shook his head, "In order to balance, the emperor allows the nobles to freely choose other young dragons after they are defeated, except for you and that red dragon, as long as they can sign a contract with the young dragons, the emperor will also recognize the ownership of the young dragons."
"I came here this time to ask you to persuade that blue dragon and green dragon to sign a contract with our line of mages, we respect the opinions and rights of the dragons more than the emperor, and the young dragons will also get corresponding freedom, we are a better choice."
"Heh, you can't bring me help, yet you dare to ask me to help you?" The sparks between the red dragon's nostrils became more intense, he stood up, his hideous head stretched towards the steel gate, staring at the mage,
"Don't you want to be suppressed so tightly by the emperor's authority, I heard that you noble mage lords even have to report to the empire's relevant administrative departments to do a large-scale magic experiment."

The squint-eyed mage had a smile on his face, and spread his hands indifferently, "Then what can we do, the emperor not only has the supreme power himself, but he also has countless nobles and legion warriors to support him."
"We mages just like to study some spells, it doesn't matter whether we are suppressed or not, after all, we are not those nobles who value power more than life."
Karon sneered in his heart, the resources needed by each mage were immeasurable, not to mention the magical materials that were enough to make people pale in fear, even the magic potions and various magic gems and crystals that assisted the mage's practice were difficult for a small noble to bear.
What's more, these high-level mages, behind each mage there must be one or more nobles standing, in order to supply the mage's consumption, seemingly neutral mages and seemingly neutral nobles, maybe some are confused in the game, but he is not confused when he stands outside the game.
The appeal of interests is something that nothing can change, the red dragon lowered his voice, with a tempting power in his words, revealing the dragon's white fangs,
"If, I mean if, one day the dragon group accidentally escapes, and accidentally slaughters all those nobles who are loyal to the emperor, what kind of accident do you think it would be?"
The smile on the squint-eyed mage's face finally disappeared, he took a breath of cold air, "Red Dragon, this may be an idea, but I can't make the decision on this matter, I have to go back, maybe I will bring you some exciting news next time I come."
