All the heavens began with Huo Yi

Throne Room

"What? You're going to attack Galid too?" Radagan looked at Lani in surprise, then continued, "What makes Galid so special that you and your brother are going to attack it together?"

That place is where I build up your brother's achievements and reputation. What are you arguing with him about? You already have Lienia and Lani.

"I'm not going to fight him for it, so just tell me, okay?" Lani asked irritably.

"What if I say no?"

"I'm going too! I don't care if you can or not!"

Radagan sighed, pondered for a long time, and finally could only nod and acknowledge the matter.

Compared to Marika, Rdagan is more humane in his actions; you simply couldn't bring himself to imprison his own child!

Even though what Lani was going to do might affect his plans, he would still have no choice but to agree to Lani's request.

If it were Marika, she would probably have thrown Lani into the sewers to reflect on her actions immediately. To Marika, her own child is insignificant compared to the rest of the world.

What is the size of my legion?

Radagan rubbed his forehead and thought for a while before speaking: "Twenty thousand men is about right. Any more and they'll steal your brother's thunder. When we join forces, even though you'll be leading your own army, you should announce to the outside world that your brother is the commander-in-chief."

"Okay, I understand." Lani made a move to leave.

"Wait." Radagan suddenly called out to Lani, "I have something I hope you can give to Renara for me."

As Radagan spoke, he disappeared for a moment. When he returned, he was holding an amber egg in his left hand, inside which was a large rune, and a small red wolf in his right hand.

“This large rune is for Renara, and this little wolf too.” Radagan first gave the large rune to Lani, then held the red wolf cub in his arms and shook it. “Your mother likes small animals, and the red wolf will definitely make her happy.”

Looking at Radagan as if he were presenting a treasure, Lani felt a mix of emotions.

Just as Sull said, Radagan still loves her mother, but the betrayal is an undeniable fact.

……

outside the city of Caria

The Grand Square of the Church of Our Lady of Pereux

"My soldiers, are you willing to come with me to Galid and conquer that red plateau?"

Lani was dressed very differently today. She abandoned her usual light blue clothes, gave up her mage attire, and bid farewell to her usual ladylike appearance, instead becoming heroic and dashing.

A red cloak fluttered in the lake breeze of Lienia, and the lake-blue coat of arms of the Carian royal family could be seen embroidered on it from time to time.

Her beautiful red hair was neatly bound inside her ornate helmet.

The dark gold women's armor was inlaid with blood-red gems. Although the well-fitting armor made Lani's waist look somewhat slender, the overall look gave her an indescribable sense of agility.

The red skirt embroidered with gold flowers hung straight down to the leg armor without fluttering in the wind. Experienced soldiers could tell at a glance that armor plates were embedded in this gorgeous garment, making it a rare type of cloth-covered armor.

Lani, wielding a bright silver longsword inlaid with sapphire, rode a giant white horse and encouraged the twenty thousand Darkmoon soldiers below.

The red of the flames is the color of the Carians' battles. When the Gold Saints fought against the Full Moon, the Full Moon Queen also wore red.

This is an ancient custom that stargazers have preserved since the snowy era, perhaps because they were once neighbors with the fire giants.

"Let the flames of Kalia burn Gailid! Victory! Kalia!"

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!"

Lani shouted again, and as soon as she finished speaking, the soldiers below also shouted in unison. The previously loose morale was instantly solidified into a steel rope.

Some of the older lieutenants were veterans of Kalia, their eyes already somewhat blurred. At this moment, Lani seemed to overlap with the appearance of a former princess of Kalia.

That princess was just as heroic and spirited back then, leading them, along with the queen, to keep gold from entering Caria.

Unfortunately, they were all eventually lured away by the red-haired man!

(In a sense, Lelana could indeed be considered a sister to Lani.)

"Go! March!" Lani gave the order and was the first to pass through the portal.

At the front line of the Galid position, Sull had been waiting for a long time. He had come to Galid with Rataen in advance and had also helped Lani place a teleportation stone here.

"How's it going at the front?"

“Prince Rataen has left the southern route to you, Princess.” Suer pointed to the location on the map. “Prince Rataen should be here now. This place is inhabited by a large number of dragons, led by the Mother of Dragons. These remnants of the old era are quite a tough nut to crack.”

"And what about our side?" Lani asked, pointing to the marching route drawn at the bottom of the map.

“A small number of dragons, some ancient giant creatures, such as dogs and crows, and this place.” Sull pointed to a castle and said, “Red Sand City, the remnants of the Storm King’s forces after his death are all here, and the Storm King’s offspring should also be here. If things go smoothly with Prince Rataen, we can meet up there in three days.”

"I thought those birdmen were all dead, but I didn't expect there were still remnants." Lani knew that as long as these birdmen were eliminated, Galid could be brought into her possession.

“In fact, no, and they’ve allied themselves with those dragons, and almost all the orcs in Galid listen to them,” Sull replied, which was what he had learned from Rataen.

……

“Good brother, I didn’t expect to get another dragon heart. Here you go.” Adura said to Smarag, holding a bloody heart in his hand.

"Haha, let's build this damned Dragon Sacrifice Church first. These damned dragons have already fallen to such a state, yet they still dare to go against the gold?"

Smarag, holding a straight stick, struck the lazy demi-humans and orcs with it. They were prisoners defeated by Lani's Darkmoon Army and were now demonstrating their value through physical labor.

"Get to work, you damn idiots." Adura kicked an orc. "Maybe we can get an ancient dragon for this church sometime. They don't get along well with dragons."

“Perhaps it is, brother,” Smarag replied. “Where do you think the princess and the others are now?”

“Who knows? It’s been three days. They’ll probably be joining forces with His Highness the First Prince soon. It’s only because the First Prince is kind-hearted that he spared those dragons’ lives,” Adura said. “If the two sides had taken a different route, given Lord Sur’s personality, there probably wouldn’t be many left. It would be either submission or death.”
