As Kalon's gentle words fell, the atmosphere in the royal hall relaxed, and Carlit's heart settled.
Although Carlit did not receive any rewards, her tail unconsciously flicking and slapping around showed the Blue Dragon's joyful mood.
Dragons cast approving glances at Carlit, who, with her performance, made the True Dragons put aside their prejudices. Even if some did not particularly like the Blue Dragon, they would not express it given the Dragon Lord's stance.
The Blue Dragon Akzi, in particular, cast his naked gaze. The status of the two Blue Dragons in the family was now worlds apart from before.
As one of the Dragon Lords most trusted by the Dragon Lord, Blue Dragon Akzi, relying on his own abilities, took control of all the empire's regular legions, holding great power and growing in prestige.
Under the gaze of this male Blue Dragon, who was almost more aggressive than the Ancestral Red Dragon perched on the throne, Carlit also returned a fiery gaze.
Perhaps after today's gathering dispersed, Carlit wouldn't even need to rush to consider which peak to nest on among the mountain tops.
Only Dos still felt a bit awkward, stiffening his neck and not looking at Carlit.
In this Blue Dragon's eyes, Carlit, as the family's matriarch, was extremely unqualified, but Dos, during his younghood, was once proud that Carlit had founded the True Dragon family.
But this awkwardness quickly disappeared, as, to the sound of Kalon's Iron Dragon claws tapping, waitresses brought trays, each containing refined precious metal minerals, emitting an enticing aroma for True Dragon s.
These perfectly proportioned minerals, researched by the Scholars of the territories, were most suitable for supplementing the various elements in the True Dragon's bodies, promoting balanced physical development and allowing for more ample growth.
Every Dragon Lord in the Dragon clan, with their outstanding appearance and exceptional strength, was the result of the entire empire's full support, and the research and pairing of these foods was just the tip of the iceberg.
The current research institute's Issues had gradually delved into how to better stimulate the True Dragon's most perfect dragon blood, and was attempting to achieve the revival and evolution of dragon blood through a combination of magic and various potions.
Kalon's unique soul never believed that the significance of a territory to a True Dragon was merely simple tribute and wealth accumulation, or waging war and conquering land. An empire truly controlled by a True Dragon could play many tricks.
And Kalon had long decided to develop and strengthen the civilization established by the Dragon clan, and then use the nourishment of the entire civilization to support the True Dragons. The True Dragons makes civilization grow, and civilization makes the True Dragons strong!
From this point alone, the civilization under the True Dragons already showed some promise.
The True Dragon, regardless of cost, allowed their subjects and dependents to grow and multiply freely, ensuring that the subjects had ample space to live and sufficient resources to develop. This not only made these subjects more loyal to the True Dragon's rule but also spontaneously willing to provide more supplies to the True Dragons.
Just like the Green Goblin and Kobold dependents initially taken in by the True Dragon, these two races, in their historical tradition, due to food scarcity and lack of security, would automatically split into several small groups once their population reached a certain size.
This reduced food consumption, and the smaller size also made it less likely to attract attacks from enemies and hunters.
But now, within the Dragon clan's territory, these two groups had rapidly expanded, with no division into sub-groups. The incredibly fertile Kobold and Green Goblin could mature a generation in just a few years. At this time, the territory already possessed over a hundred thousand Kobold and nearly a hundred thousand Green Goblin.
And these large numbers of Kobold and Green Goblin, with the exception of the elite warriors and the exceptionally intelligent tribesmen engaged in other professions, almost all other tribesmen had passed through the Plane portal and entered the Dragon clan's backyard—the Green Field Forest Plane.
Hundreds of thousands of Kobold and Green Goblin displayed their enthusiasm, with large numbers of dependents almost every day and night in the Green Field Forest's mines, mountains, and various resource points, excavating and transporting resources for the True Dragon they pledged allegiance to.
They didn't even need the True Dragon's supervising patrols to crack whips and urge them on; they could complete tasks excellently because these dependents knew that their efforts would earn them the True Dragon's affirmation, rewards, and favor!
Even if there were some lazy Kobold or Green Goblin, if they idled for a long time, they could even dream that the Kobold and Green Goblin spirits in the True Dragon's Hall of Heroes, reveling in luxury, would howl and pounce down, twisting the necks of these tribesmen to avoid disgracing them.
Under such terrifying circumstances, a considerable amount of resources were transported daily through the Plane portal to the Dragon Clans Territory.
This was also why the Dragon Clans Territory remained incredibly prosperous even after several years of continuous warfare.
Each Dragon Lord had a fixed daily quota, and they habitually narrowed their eyes, using their talons to pick up portions of precious minerals and metals, grinding them between their fangs, slowly enjoying these desserts after the grand feast.
But the Young Red Dragon Kediros, and the White Dragon Loni, and Ellie were not so calm. Even with a small wooden box full of treasures in front of them, they were still somewhat reluctant to eat these precious metals as food.
These wandering wild True Dragons and the poor True Dragons from the glaciers were accustomed to poverty and were somewhat unaccustomed to the sudden wealth of life after joining the True Dragon.
These True Dragons even wanted to secretly hide these precious metals in the crevices of their scales, keeping them as treasures.
Carlit hesitated for a moment, watching the Young Red Dragon Kediros nonchalantly use his nimble tongue to scoop up all the precious metal minerals from the entire tray into his belly, before she cautiously began to taste them.
The three Metal Dragon poking their heads out of the main hall's entrance had even widened their vertical pupils into round shapes.
They even had the thought in their minds that those righteous titles were not as valuable and substantial as the food on the True Dragon's trays. How many gold coins could a righteous title be worth?
This terrifying thought scared the Metal Dragons, who quickly shook their heads, casting the dreadful idea out of their minds. But the silently corrosive seed had already been planted in the hearts of these True Dragon, gradually germinating.
After Dragons finished enjoying their meal and the waitresses removed the dishes, Kalon tapped his armrest again and spoke loudly.
"Since the banquet has concluded and the desserts enjoyed, it is time to discuss serious matters: about the Orcs, about the Murlocs, about the territory, and about the future!"
