Dragon Monarch System
chapter-212-30041322

The central plains is an area where both the Southern Fire Dragon Empire and the Northern Frost Dragon Empire's borders touch. It was a neutral region. The whole region was around 42 km big. The central plains always have been the focal point of various wars and fights. Even before both the Southern Fire Dragon Empire and the Northern Frost Dragon Empire came into existence, the central plains were known to the people as a warzone.

It was a place where millions had died over thousands of years. This Warzone also was the graveyard of millions of troops. To this day, adventurer groups, mercenaries, cultivators, and even ordinary people would go to the central plains to look for weapons, armor, or artifacts that belonged to the dead soldiers.

Even when the Southern Fire Dragon Empire and the Northern Frost Dragon Empire became the two biggest superpowers of the southern region, neither of the Dragon Empires did anything to this place. The central plains were like a heaven for people with dark magic; mostly for Necromancers. As this place was also a graveyard of soldiers, A necromancer can easily build a large army.

Although the Northern Frost Dragon Empire warned any Necromancer to not enter the central plains, as this region was a neutral region, most Necromancers mostly ignored the Northern Frost Dragon Empire's warnings as they knew if anything happened, the Southern Fire dragon Empire would stand against the Northern Frost Dragon Empire.

Unlike any normal day, today strangely the entire central plain was empty. There were no people, cultivators, adventurers, and mercenaries in this place looking for treasures which were also buried along with the bodies of the millions of fallen soldiers. The central plain was very quiet today. The northern cold wind seems to have turned this place into a Ghostland.

The entire region was covered in a layer of snow. Anywhere one looked, there was only snow and snow. Everything was white. As if Heaven was trying to stop 6 Empires from fighting, currently it was also snowing. This forced armies from both sides to advance.

The presence of Mana in this world affects everything single thing. The atmosphere of this world is quite different from Earth. Summer and Winter in this world were a lot harsher. Especially the months of winter were very cold. It was common for ordinary people to die from cold. Even 1st-order cultivators had a hard time resisting this cold weather.

"Since it's snowing right now, for now, both sides have stopped advancing. Although 2nd-order or higher-order soldiers can easily resist this cold and even stay naked in this cold weather without feeling any cold, it was because of the 1st-order soldiers that both sides stopped in their march. As a majority of both sides, soldiers are 1st-order cultivators, both Dragon Empires have no choice but to stop if they don't want their soldiers to be in low stamina and mana." Right now Aditya, Julia, Watson, Amber, Scott, Nathan, Henry, Eleanor, Josh, Tyler, Zachary, Morgan, and Leo all were sitting in a room and having a meeting.

"I don't understand. Can't both sides use their 5th-order cultivators to push the snow clouds away?" In Leo's opinion, 5th-order cultivators should be easily able to clear the cloudy sky which would let both sides resume their march and the whole battle can start quicker.

"Things do not work that way, Leo." Aditya was letting Leo sit in this meeting room so that he can learn from everyone. Leo was totally inexperienced in this kind of thing. In his opinion, Leo was going to become one of the strongest cultivators of the Istarin Empire. He wanted to prepare Leo for a big role in the future.

"I doubt any 5th-order cultivator can clear this cloudy sky. Unless two or more Peak 5th-order cultivators work at the same time. The central plain is not a small place. That Warzone is 42 km big. Just to clear the sky, a Peak 5th-order would run out of Mana which neither side is willing to do." 5th-order cultivators are the main deciding factor of this entire battle. If even one of the 5th-order cultivators ran out of mana even before the battle started this would be a huge loss for that side.

Peak 5th-order cultivators can consume mana recovery pills to recover their mana. But what a mana recovery pill or potion does is accelerate the mana regeneration speed. The pill does not completely recover a cultivator's mana reserve within a few seconds. It will at least take 5 minutes to completely recover mana if the cultivator takes a 5-star mana recovery pill. But as far as Aditya knew, only the goddess of Alchemy can create a 5-star pill on 6 continents. Things might be different on the main continent; Aditya is not sure. Neither side is willing to take the risk of their strongest cultivator being in low mana.

Though Julia can make 5-star pills, other than a few 5-star pills, most of the 5-star pills are not sold to the market. Not to mention the fact, the quality of alchemy ingredients that are needed to create a 5-star pill is extremely difficult to find and is super expensive.

For a 5th-tier faction, even having an alchemist who can make a 4-star pill is a huge thing. An alchemist is essentially the backbone of a faction. It wouldn't have been possible for Istarin Empire to rapidly rise without Julia and her pills. Julia's pills have saved Aditya's life so many times. Only one out of one million alchemists can become a 4-star alchemist.

Another thing that made Julia special from other Alchemists is the fact that she had a 100% success rate of making a 5-star pill. Whereas a 4-star alchemist only has around 50 to 70% success rate of creating a 4-star pill. This itself puts a huge difference.

"Besides, we don't even know how many 5th-order cultivators both sides have bought for this battle." Hearing old Majin village leader Zachary's words, Nathan lowered his head feeling disappointed in himself. It was Nathan's task to find out how many 5th-order cultivators both sides have bought in this war. But he couldn't even get near the enemy base as 5th-order cultivators that stayed in the enemy base would have sensed him even if he was 15 km away. Nathan can hide from a Peak 4th-order cultivator, unfortunately, he hasn't reached a point where he can even hide from a 5th-order cultivator.

"It's not like we're participating in this war. We will eventually see what capability both sides have when the fight begins. Besides, I am sure we're not the only ones who are keeping an eye on this battle." Just as Aditya said, many other forces were also keeping their eyes on the battlefield.

Scene change______

"How long do we have to wait?"

"Not too long. Maybe in a few more minutes."

"What are you planning?"

"I am going to show this world the southern Fire dragon's Empire's newest Weapon."

Just outside the central plain, while the soldiers were taking shelter in tents and houses which were made from earth magic, the commanders of various Empires were waiting outside.

Right now Everyone's eyes were on a young man who looked like he was 20. The young man had black spiky hair and black pupils. The young man had the Aura of a dragon. If one looked carefully he would see that when the snow fell on the young man's body, the snow evaporated instantly. The young man wore a black full-sleeved robe that had a face of a black Dragon on the robe's back.

This young man was one of the sons of Brolbiner. Over the 5 centuries, both Brolbiner and his twin brother had multiple wives and multiple children. One of the Brolbiner's children was, Lucas.

Lucas was a young man who was only 34 years old. At the age of 29, Lucas managed to reach beginner 5th order. It was said that Lucas was even more talented in cultivation than his own father.

At the age of 24, Lucas was made one of the commanders of the Southern Fire Dragon Empire. Some people went on to say that Brolbiner himself favored Lucas and has grooming him to become the next Emperor. But these were just rumors. No one knew what Brolbiner was thinking.

Lucas had a muscular body. He had a slightly darker skin color and he was around 5 feet 11 inches tall.

"This is going to change the entire outcome of this war." With a wave of his hand, Lucas summoned flames. The flames took the shape of a dragon and instantly evaporated all the snow within 20 meters of range.

When the 3 meters thick layer of snow evaporated, from his storage ring, Lucas took out a cannon that was 15 meters in size. Everyone carefully looked at the cannon. The cannon looked the same as regular cannons except this cannon was larger in size. Unlike regular cannons, this cannon's muzzle astragal, first reinforce ring, second reinforce ring, vent field astragal, and the base ring was painted golden.

"Everyone let me introduce you to Firestorm Cannon. An advanced and specialized cannon that can be only used by cultivators who have fire affinity. A single shot of this Firestorm cannon is enough to severely injure a Peak 5th-order cultivator. This is a newly developed cannon. Only a very few people in the Empire know about this cannon." Everyone gasped upon hearing Lucas's words. To think the Southern Fire Dragon Empire has developed a Cannon that is strong enough to severely injure a Peak 5th-order cultivator. Suddenly everyone started to fortune that they had joined the Southern Fire dragon Empire's side.

Seeing everyone's shocked faces Lucas secretly smiled and looked at everyone in contempt. Other than the Firestorm Cannon, the Fire Dragon Empire also had many powerful weapons. What Lucas did not tell them is that this Firestorm cannon is a failed product. Although this cannon holds the power to severely injure a Peak 5th-order cultivator, when this cannon is fired, rather than attacking a single point and releasing all its attack power on a single point, the power of the cannon blast is spread everywhere. The reason this cannon was called a failed product is that while this cannon can take out millions of 1st-order cultivators, the firestorm cannon failed to achieve its real purpose which was the take out 5th-order cultivators.

'Just like father told me, these idiots are fools. Give them some temptations and they will act like dogs.' Everyone failed to notice the look of contempt that Lucas was giving them.

"Let's test out this bad boy." Lucas went back to his cheerful self, pretending as if he never saw everyone's greedy looks

Really Thank you very much to all those who sends support with valuable golden tickets. I hope we can keep it up!!!
