Chapter 2739: Chapter 1178: Gaven’s Daughters_3

In situations where there’s no other choice, they are unwilling to engage in a battle with a renowned Ancient Blue Dragon.

Actually, what they were worried about was not the threat from Sharptooth. Her existence is not new, and the residents who live here have long reached certain agreements or tacit understandings with her. As long as they don’t violate these agreements and understandings, this Blue Dragon won’t easily harass them.

Although they are all Colored Dragons, there is a great difference in character between different species.

Among them, Red Dragons, Black Dragons, and White Dragons have high similarities. Their temperament is as changeable and unpredictable as Abyssal Demons; they act at will according to their mood and preferences, often standing against intelligent creatures.

On the other hand, Blue Dragons and Green Dragons have personalities more akin to Devils from The Nine Hells, equally greedy and evil, equally fond of manipulating others. They usually keep their promises, as long as the promise is beneficial to them.

Sharptooth is the most typical example of the Blue Dragon personality.

Therefore, what the Crownbearers fear is Gaven, who considers himself a Demigod and believes he has the capability to slay or engage this Ancient Giant Dragon, acting recklessly.

If he can successfully slay Sharptooth, then so be it.

The fear is that things don’t go smoothly, only driving her back or severely injuring her, which would be disastrous.

This vindictive Ancient Blue Dragon would surely launch a frenzied revenge, relentlessly pursuing them — the Shoon Dynasty is a case in point.

These allies who have just reached an agreement with Gaven would find themselves in a difficult situation, and any misstep could bring disaster.

For now, their worries seem unnecessary, as Lord Road Builder is far more wise than they initially thought.

As for what kind of agreement has been reached, they wisely chose not to pursue the matter further, knowing this is something that could easily backfire since the other party is a Demigod and deserves some face.

Crowned Valantino continued to ask: "She woke from Dragon Sleep, surely something big will happen nearby. Lord Road Builder, do you know what has happened?"

"The Masked Members of Amu’s Six-Person Council have been collectively assassinated, with three permanently dead," Gaven replied nonchalantly.

"What? Three Masked Members assassinated? Who did it?"

The one who stood up angrily was not Crowned Valantino but Lord Raymond of Ruitawen.

Being a part of the Amm Kingdom, he understands the significance of the Masked Members better, as none of them are weak and they usually have tremendous power and backing.

"Sharptooth suspects it was me and just came to question me, but I have indeed not done such a thing," Gaven naturally wouldn’t easily disclose information about Shoon VII.

To Sharptooth, Shoon VII is like the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, while Gaven is the oriole watching both.

"Could it be the work of the Shadow Thieves? This secret thief organization has been rampant in the Amm Kingdom over the past decades, with their spies infiltrating everywhere, and members are ubiquitous. They have secretly controlled many industries in the Amm Kingdom.

They have been constantly trying to infiltrate the highest levels of the Amm Kingdom, and secret assassination has always been their usual method," Lord Raymond boldly speculated.

He was Gaven’s last diplomatic target, and in many matters, the two were quite in harmony, driven by interests.

He too was invited to this Winter Banquet, and likewise, he was greatly impacted and shaken, secretly glad he made a wise decision.

A force blessed by the Gods is difficult not to rise, not to mention Gaven is now one of the Gods himself, managing roads closely related to the development of all people, making him truly extraordinary.

Opportunities naturally require him to demonstrate his value as much as possible, integrating into this new group, and his greatest value is extracting more benefits from the Amm Kingdom and delivering them to Lord Zalanda.

"Ultimately, who conducted the assassination isn’t important; that’s Sharptooth’s problem to worry about," Gaven naturally wouldn’t expend too much effort on a known issue, "The key point is, what can we gain from it?"

"War! As long as you, my lord, give the order, we of Blood Gorge City will be the first to move out, ensuring we’ll capture Brrost within ten days, swallow Mulan within a month, and have the entire area south of the Broken Tooth Mountain Range submit to Lord’s rule," Blood Claw, the Hobgoblin Warlord who resembled a Giant, couldn’t resist loudly proclaiming.

Being the sharpest blade in Gaven’s hand naturally qualifies him to attend this Winter Banquet.

"Isn’t the Giant Plains enough to satisfy you?" Gaven glanced at this Hobgoblin Warlord.

Zalanda’s pregnancy and a series of diplomatic plans have somewhat disrupted his schedule.

After returning from the Bottomless Abyss, he still hasn’t had time to survey the Blood Gorge City area.

The Hobgoblin Warlord grinned, showing a confident yet terrifying smile, "The previous extermination of the werewolves by Lord has not only completely eradicated the Jackalwere from the Giant Plains but has collectively frightened off the Beast Demon Tribe.

Now the Monster Tribe on the Giant Plains is like broken-nosed worms, helpless to resist, unable to stir any waves."

"After so many years, have you made no progress?" Gaven frowned, exuding authority without anger, "Since when has occupation been our goal? Development and construction are our core.

When the Giant Plains are filled with camps and villages belonging to you Hobgoblins, and you become the main residents there, with endless supplies of troops, then we may talk about territorial expansion."

The Hobgoblins of Blood Gorge City are certainly strong, but they have a fatal flaw.

That is a lack of strategic depth and war potential.

If their main army suffers large-scale casualties, their forces will be difficult to sustain, and the Giant Plains could very well catch fire again.

When initially forming the Conqueror Army, Gaven engaged in an unprecedented gamble.

The result now is a win, but if he had lost the bet, many things would have been reset to zero.

Back then, with a small household and little property, even losing the gamble wouldn’t have been a big deal; starting over would have been feasible.

Now, with a big household and large property, Gaven is less inclined to gamble, prioritizing stability in everything.
