Under the Red Dragon.

Chapter 49 A seemingly simple plan
In the deep underground cell, Caron, who did not attach importance to the precise concept of time, had blurred his own sense of time, but the daily feeding on time and the cheers coming from above the arena made him grasp the passage of time.

Half a month has passed, and his secondary brain nodes have grown from one to six.

But later on, the time required to nurture the nodes became longer and longer, and most of the accumulated heart energy was consumed.

Karon's body gradually failed to keep up with the nutrition. There was no abundant food like in the Dragon's Nest territory, only three meals with fixed quotas.

The red dragon's body has become a little thin now. Although its skeleton is still huge, it is obviously a thin dragon.

However, the dragon clan does not advocate thinness as a form of beauty, and Kalon also likes himself to be more powerful and majestic, so that he can be more deterrent and powerful.

Fortunately, the six fully grown sub-brain nodes have been connected to form a sub-brain node group, which is just enough to undertake the task assigned to the sub-brain by Caron.

And the elf Pixie brought good news to the red dragon.

"According to what you said, the emperor of this empire is extremely powerful. Even the formal apprentices accepted by senior mages need to apply for reports to the empire's government departments. It's better to be more powerful."

The vertical pupils of the red dragon flickered with lively fire in the shadow cast by its wings. It seemed that the emperor of this empire had an excessive desire for power and he wanted to suppress all forces within the empire.

"Except for the nobles and mages who are directly loyal to the emperor, most other nobles and mages belong to the neutral camp. This explains a lot of problems. No one wants to have an unshakable iron curtain hanging over their heads," the red dragon looked at the elf sitting in his palm.

No wonder the squinty-eyed wizard Xiusser had hinted that he could help Kalon. It seemed that the squinty-eyed wizard was the eye of the neutral camp planted in the loyal camp, and did not want the emperor's power to grow again.

If the growing dragon group is successfully absorbed by the emperor, it will be an extremely terrifying increase in power. From this point of view, Will Clarence and the family behind him should be the camp loyal to the emperor.

The red dragon narrowed his eyes. Many things and opportunities can only be seen after contacting Xiusel. He said gently: "You have worked hard, Riven. Next, I will trouble you to meet the disciple of the neutral mage and tell him that I need to meet with him. Maybe there is a deal that he will be very interested in."

"But don't go to him in person. Just let someone else pass on the message."

"Okay, but I have to get a good night's sleep first," the petite elf lay in the red dragon's warm palm, yawned, and then gradually fell asleep.

The red dragon also habitually placed his broad palm flat on the ground, then chose a comfortable position with his head, resting his other paw, closed his eyes, and fell asleep quietly.

When Charon chewed and swallowed the last bone of the whole pig that was brought to him as breakfast today, the smiling wizard was already standing at the door of the cell, observing the red dragon's every move.

"Long time no see, red dragon. I knew you were a smart dragon," the squinting-eyed wizard had a wise look on his face.

Charon crouched down, with his wings covered with fine scales folded at his sides. He looked at the mage, who had a mysterious smile on his face, with his red pupils, and suddenly said in an unhappy tone: "Hey, mage, can you open your eyes and talk?"?

The squinty-eyed wizard Xiu Si was stunned and his eyes widened in shock: "I (very dirty), are my eyes really that small?"

Karon did not answer the wizard's question. A hint of smile flashed across his red vertical pupils, and then he changed the subject seriously, "Tell me, wizard, is there any way you can help me?"

Huh, Xiuser exhaled, narrowed his eyes out of habit, and 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 sign a contract with me, even the emperor of the empire will recognize this fact."

"But now the emperor has taken over the ownership of the dragons. He intends to tame you and the red dragon and use them as his most powerful war tools and war beasts to protect the royal family. Even if my teacher is a great wizard of the Holy Land, he cannot take back your ownership."

Charon knew the wizard's plan very well. He said he was helping him, but in fact he just wanted to subdue him and then control the power of the dragons through him.

But after hearing the emperor's decision, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart. Sparks spewed out from the red dragon's nostrils, and his deep voice echoed in the empty passage, "So you came here just to tease me, Mage?"

The squinting-eyed wizard shook his head. "In order to maintain balance, the emperor of the empire allows the nobles to freely choose the other young dragons after they are defeated, except for you and the red dragon. As long as they can sign a contract with the young dragon, the emperor of the empire will also recognize the ownership of the young dragon."

"I came here this time because I want you to help me persuade the blue dragon and the green dragon to sign a contract with our line of mages. We respect the opinions and rights of dragons more than the emperor of the empire. The young dragons will also get corresponding freedom. We are a better choice."

"Haha, you can't help me, but you still dare to ask me to help you?" The sparks between the red dragon's nose became stronger and stronger. He stood up, stretched his ferocious head towards the iron door made of fine steel, and stared directly at the mage.

"Are you willing to be suppressed by the emperor's authority forever? I heard that you noble wizards have to report to the relevant government departments of the empire even if you conduct large-scale magic experiments."

The squinting-eyed wizard smiled and spread his hands indifferently, "What can we do? The emperor of the empire not only possesses supreme power, but he also has countless nobles and legion warriors supporting him."

"We mages just like to study some spells. It doesn't matter whether we suppress them or not. After all, we are not those nobles who value power more than life."

Karon sneered in his heart. The resources required by each wizard were incalculable. Not to mention those magical materials that were enough to scare people, the magic potions and various magic gems and crystals that aided the wizard's practice alone were too much for a smaller noble to afford.

What's more, behind each of these high-level mages there must be one or more nobles to supply the mages' consumption. The seemingly neutral mages and the seemingly neutral nobles may be a little confused in the game, but he is not confused when he stands outside the game.

The pursuit of interests cannot be changed by anything. The red dragon lowered his voice, and his words carried a kind of seductive power, revealing his white fangs.
"If, I mean if, one day the dragons escaped unexpectedly and accidentally slaughtered all the nobles loyal to the emperor, what kind of accident do you think it would be?"

The smile on the narrow-eyed wizard's face finally disappeared. He took a breath and said, "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 the news you are looking forward to next time I come."
