The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 823 High-Ranking Officials Gather
Before them stood a small, golden "dragon," with well-developed wings, strong limbs, a powerful tail, beautiful scales, and a somewhat simple crest! It looked exactly like a golden dragon! Moreover, its roar wasn't sharp like other flying dragons, but rather loud and powerful like that of a giant dragon!

"This group of dragons is actually being controlled by a sub-adult golden dragon?" Ismir was completely shocked. Now he no longer needed to wonder why the earth dragons were missing. If a golden dragon were here, not to mention earth dragons, even giant dragons would have to kneel down and act like dogs! The golden dragon's bloodline suppression power over wild dragons is extremely severe!
"We're rich!" Ymir muttered, calculating how much he could gain by presenting the news of the Golden Dragon to King Roland! They could at least get some scraps from the kingdom's hunt of these dragons! Even if they didn't do any work, they could make money just by lying down!

“Let’s go back!” Ismir picked up a magic recording stone and recorded everything, memorizing all the information. Then he patted Ymir on the shoulder and whispered.

……

"Nonsense! Golden Dragon? Have you lost your minds?" Renault frowned as he looked at Ymir and Ismir, who looked like they had just returned from the brink of scavenging.

"You wouldn't mistake a lightning dragon or some earth dragon for gold..." Before Reno could finish speaking, Ismir shoved a magic image stone into his face, and the image on it immediately spread out, showing a dazzling and noble golden figure that made Reno look like a rooster being choked.

"Huh? It really is a golden dragon? Has the Central Plains become so wealthy that golden dragons can be raised in the wild?" Renault said, feeling completely bewildered. Why not keep the golden dragon properly on Dragon Island instead of bringing it out to be given away?

"Wait a minute! I'll go report this!" Renault patted his forehead, deciding to report this important matter. After all, the appearance of a wild, youthful golden dragon was enough to make the entire kingdom take a risk!

……

"Tsk! This thing... a golden dragon?" Yun Feng looked solemnly at Duke Joelsteria beside him, and only shook his head slowly after receiving a nod of approval from Duke Joelsteria.

"This world has gone mad!" Ajax, who remained behind, felt her blood pressure spike after just one glance. This thing could potentially turn the Dark Forest into a new era of Dragon Island! Just imagine! A vast, sky-covering dragon race migrating from Dragon Island to protect their emperor! That's... utterly insane! Having a massive dragon force lurking next to the kingdom isn't a good thing! It's a disaster! Especially with a golden dragon within the kingdom that can drive the entire dragon race wild...

“I’m afraid we’ll have to catch him, or at the very least…” Ajax said gravely. If they were powerless, they would have no choice but to humanely destroy him. After all, compared to having the dragons move their dragon den to the side of the kingdom, killing a golden dragon was a trivial matter!

"Let's inform King Roland! And also tell the Queen to come and see for herself!" Yun Feng said hesitantly, rubbing her temples in pain.

……

"So now all sorts of monsters and demons are appearing? Where did this dragon come from? Wasn't Doth the only golden dragon in Middle-earth?" Adolf Heinrich closed his eyes, hoping to see the image transmitted through the magic message. He was exhausted! Great Forbidden Spell! Destroy them all, hahaha!

"Should we go and catch him?" Chaselight, who had been squatting silently to the side, suddenly asked.

"..." Everyone turned to look at the rows of crouching dragons and didn't know what to say for a moment. After all, attacking the golden dragons was tantamount to making them betray their own race and faith.

"What is your opinion, Your Majesty Doss?" Long Xi raised his head and looked at Doss, who was standing quietly on Roland's shoulder.

"A country cannot have two emperors!" These words, emanating from Dos's small frame, brought a sigh of relief to all of humanity.

“Then let’s discuss meeting at Lulong Fortress!” Roland nodded. Doss chose the Kingdom, and the Kingdom’s dragons chose Doss, and that was enough!
After some discussion, Charlie Pros and Maple Forest Ice Orchid would stay behind in Lagrange City. Of the three children, only Weiss remained. However, Maple Forest Xilan's Twilight Dragon was "borrowed" by Chasing Light, leaving her to accompany her sister Maple Forest Shulan to conquer the Purple Thunder Dragon Purple Chain kept in Lagrange City. Soon, Roland mounted Kaldor's back. As the only dragon in the kingdom that didn't object to Roland riding on its back, and with Doss still unable to maintain his youthful state, Kaldor was undoubtedly Roland's best mount! Caslo and Roland rode together, with Weiss, already capable of easily defeating weaker opponents, behind them. Maple Forest Youlan, carrying Dragon Xilan, rode Chasing Light at the rear, with Adolf Heinrich and Darion Nightblade on either side. This highly mobile fighting force sped towards Lulong Fortress!

……

"Your Majesty!" As Roland and his group approached the Lulong Fortress, they encountered Dos Anthony, who came to greet them. The Thunder Dragon Kurt gave a low greeting to everyone.

"My sister and the Queen will be here soon!" Seeing Roland and Caslo's urgency, Dos Anthony said quickly before they could speak.

……

Not long after the group entered Lulong Fortress, the sound of dragon wings flapping reached their ears, and a crimson dragon and a blue dragon with iridescent light came into view.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Before Roland could greet his wife, a large face popped up in front of him, severely dampening Roland's mood.

"Um... my Prime Minister, I regret that due to the special circumstances, we cannot hold a grand inauguration ceremony for you!" Roland quickly adjusted his mindset to welcome Yun Feng. As the kingdom's most important servant... no! a meritorious official! Yun Feng has made indelible contributions to the kingdom's development, and he truly deserves the title of Prime Minister!

"Thank you for your kindness, but if it weren't for the addition of Swift Hand, I would have already gone on strike!" The ox and horse were getting angry. If someone hadn't joined in to share the burden of the ox and horse, Yun Feng would have already exploded!

"Oh! My husband!" Yun Feng consciously stepped aside, leaving space for the two couples. After embracing each other for a while, Roland was the first to put down his beloved.

"How is Swiftstream City?" Roland didn't know what to say, so he just made conversation.

“Great! With a slave to serve you like a beast of burden in Swiftstream City, you don’t need to worry about anything!” Before Nyx could speak, Yunfeng chimed in sarcastically.

"..." Roland's lips twitched. I'll hold back! After all, he's telling the truth.

"Haha, Your Excellency Yunfeng, you've worked hard these past few days." Nyx replied elegantly and appropriately, which could be considered as an affirmation of Yunfeng from the Queen's perspective, making Yunfeng's expression more pleasant.

"Yes, yes, yes! You've done a great job! You've all done a great job!" Roland wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Women are always hard to please, but in Roland's mind, Yunfeng was no easier to handle than any woman.

"Alright, enough with the pleasantries! Let's get down to business! What do we do about that dragon?" Renault interrupted the joking crowd and said seriously. The reason they were able to quickly shake off all the spies and quietly gather the kingdom's top forces was because of that suddenly appearing golden dragon!
