This time Otto unexpectedly slept for a long time.
Even with Sofia’s help and an adequate supply of nutrients, he still slept for two whole weeks.
When Otto woke up groggily from the Blackstone Platform, he felt an indescribable hunger.
This surprised him, as he hadn’t felt this way in a long time.
After all, the last time he woke up from sleep, he didn’t need to eat a lot like before, thanks to Sofia’s help.
But this time was slightly different. As soon as he woke up from his sleep, he felt as if he had an extra organ in his chest.
Sofia looked exhausted, so Otto didn’t want to bother her too much.
After sending her to rest in the inner hall, he instructed Saru to bring enough food. Although the taste was much worse, it was still acceptable.
Afterward, Otto studied the new organ in his chest while eating.
In a short while, the food in front of him was completely consumed.
Based on his past eating habits, this amount of food was enough for him to eat for three days.
But he couldn’t help it. He still felt hungry, so Saru arranged for more food.
When the next batch of food arrived, Otto had thoroughly researched the new ability he gained from devouring the volcanic core.
Simply put, he had grown an energy furnace-like thing in his chest. It can supply continuous energy to almost all of Otto’s abilities.
His energy source was through massive eating.
Not only ordinary food but various minerals and other things that can provide energy in everyday life can be alternatives.
In this regard, Magic Crystals seem to be the most suitable energy source.
However, there are too many places in the Land of the Soaring Dragon that need to use Magic Crystals, and simply swallowing them as food would seem too wasteful.
For now, the most economical energy source is various ordinary food.
Recently, Longfang’s animal husbandry has been quite well, and Otto doesn’t have to worry about meat.
Only after the fourth batch of food from Saru did Otto finally fill his stomach.
Or rather, filling his chest’s energy furnace with enough energy.
Then, Otto took a break and went out to test whether his various abilities would change under the support of this energy furnace.
The most important thing was the various spraying weapons that Otto often used.
The conclusion was delightful as his various spraying weapons had received varying degrees of power amplification.
Among them, Flame Breath and other related weapons had a massive increase in power. Now, his Flame Breath can even instantly burn through a large hole in a hard rock.
Such an attack would naturally have dire consequences if it hit ordinary creatures.
Moreover, the abilities of almost everyone else had also been enhanced, which satisfied Otto greatly.
After returning to the Land of the Soaring Dragon, he focused on recent events.
Saru respectfully stood not far from Otto, reporting the recent significant intelligence one by one.
Most of the matters were related to the new Lait King, who was still causing quite a stir recently.
First of all, Angelina and her resistance army had made remarkable progress, capturing nearly half of the original Lait Kingdom’s territory.
Even if his backyard was on fire, the new Lait King showed no intention of returning to his hometown. Instead, he continued to encroach on Felton’s territory as much as possible.
When compared to Felton, the small territory of the former Lait Kingdom didn’t matter much.
It seems that the appetite of the current Lait King has grown substantially.
However, the resistance of the local nobles was fierce, and in a short time, the new Lait King couldn’t swallow such a big piece of cake.
Yesterday, the underground tunnels between the soaring Land of the Dragon and the Sulfur Mountains were finally connected. The Burrowing Worms did an excellent job.
Although the Black Iron Dwarves have not yet been able to build a Magic Train that can accommodate thousands of people, as Otto requested.
But even if they rely on walking through the tunnels, the time it takes to reach the destination will be reduced significantly.
Then, Saru continued, “Your Majesty, three days ago, Black Rose paid a visit to the Dragon Soaring Land and wanted to see you.
At that time, you were in a deep sleep, so I declined her request.
After that, she told me the reason for her visit, hoping that I would pass it on to you.”
“What did she say?”
“She hopes that the Soaring Dragon Legion will start as soon as possible to help Felton, encircle the new Lait King from both sides and permanently eliminate him.”
Otto narrowed his eyes, Black Rose seemed to be more impatient lately, it looks like the threat to them from the new Lait King is growing more significant.
Suddenly, Otto asked, “By the way, where is Link’s noble family from?”
“It’s from Felkorde, in the Western Empire, Your Majesty.”
It makes sense. Once Felton falls, barring Dawn Forest, the next one to face the new Lait King will be the Western Empire, Felkorde.
If even the Felkorde Empire falls in the hands of the new Lait King, the idea of ruling the world might have a chance of becoming a reality.
However, he couldn’t help but wonder if the new Lait King would dare to step into the Dawn Forest.
“There’s one more thing that might interest you.”
Saru added finally, “Recently, the Caran Kingdom has approached the Black Iron Dwarves, hoping to buy a large number of sophisticated weapons and equipment at any price.”
“Caran? The one that borders Red Copper Castle and the Black Iron Field in the Skyrend Mountains, is next to Harvest Bay, and often does business with the Eastern Empire?”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
Saru nodded with affirmation, then continued, “But according to the intelligence, the true buyer behind this order should be the Eastern Empire. The Caran people are just middlemen who can earn a lot of commissions.”
What’s worth noting is that the Eastern Empire’s demand for weapons and equipment is vast. If possible, they even want to buy Black Iron Ballistae.
No matter how you look at it, it seems as if they are preparing for a large-scale war!”
Hearing this, Otto thought for a while, considering the terrain; it is probable that the Eastern Empire has already allied with the new Lait King.
Do they want to wait until Felton completely falls and then jointly attack the Western Empire with the new Lait King?
