Reincarnated as a Red Dragon, Discipline Makes Me Stronger!

Chapter 48: Troops Mobilized, Dragons Surrounded!

The skyline in the distance was already beginning to brighten.

Calsus, who had been preparing for the entire night in Longsong Alley, was ready to put his plan into motion.

“Sir Calsus, isn’t this a waste of resources?”

The Lord of Longsong Alley, Ardarian, could not help but voice his concerns.

Based on Calsus’ plan, the 100 thousand troops that were sent by the kingdom would be split into three groups, and each group would take different rotues to encircle the dragons within the valley.

Not only that, each group had a good reserve of resources. Each group was armed with a Dragon-vanquishing Ballista of their own.

As for the other resources such as magic tools and ammo, there was simply an astronomical supply of them.

Ardarian roughly estimated that even if he were to empty out 10 Longsong Alleys, he would still not be able to bring out this much resources.

Fortunately, Calsus was sent by the king, and with the cooperation of various lords, they were able to scrape together the resources required for the operation.

However, even though Ardarian was not the one forking out the money for the operation, he still felt that it was a waste.

“Ardarian, are you doubting me?”

Calsus turned his head and glared at Ardarian.

Calsus’ eyes were ice-cold.

“The body of dragons are extremely tough. While normal adventurers are capable of taking down Archaic Dragons and below on their own…”

“Once they become Ancient Dragons, it would be as if they were reborn. At that point, their strength would put them as one of the top lifeforms within the continent.”

“It is not an exaggeration to call Ancient Dragons walking disasters.”

“Were it not for the lack of capital, I would’ve requested for even more resources. What we have now is still not enough to secure our victory.”

Ardarian gulped audibly and recalled Agatha’s figure.

Although Agatha had always been plundering the resources of Longsong Alley, she was a reasonable dragon, and she had not once tried to massacre the entirety of Longsong Alley..

Therefore, Ardarian knew not of the true strength of the Ancient Dragon, Agatha.

Despite being a Diamond Rank, Calsus was so cautious. Meanwhile, Ardarian, who was merely an ordinary person, had dared to question Calsus’ strategy.

Upon realizing this, Ardarian’s back was immediately drenched in sweat.

Had Agatha seriously attempted to wipe out Longsong Alley, even 10 thousand Ardarians would be incapable of mounting a defense against her for more than a second.

However, there existed two such monstrous entities within the desert north of Longsong Alley, and this was discounting the two child dragons that Agatha had given birth to.

Once the two Dragon Hatchlings had grown up, the threat that Longsong Alley would have to face was no laughing matter.

Ardarian gritted his teeth and steeled his resolve.

“Sir Calsus, I am sorry for doubting your judgment. You’re right, if we wish to slay Ancient Dragons, we must give them our all!”

“This is the key to Longsong Alley’s treasury. Please feel free to use the resources within as you wish, Sir Calsus!”

Ardarian’s subservient attitude had gladdened Calsus greatly.

“In that case, I’ll hold you to your word. I’ll have you hand over all the gemstones within your treasury to the army.”

“I’ll report your contribution to His Majesty later.”

Following this, Calsus grabbed the key to Longsong Alley’s treasury and ordered his men to move out the gemstones in the treasury in huge numbers.

Ardarian was dumbfounded.

‘Good heavens, you ever heard of something called moderation?!’

Once Calsus had finished looting Longsong Alley’s treasury, he then led his army off.

“Felix, you will lead your troops to attack the dragon’s lair from the southwest.”

“Gallio, you will be in charge of attacking from the northeast.”

“I will be in charge of the frontal assault.”

Felix and Gallio were both famous individuals within the kingdom.

Their fame rivaled that of the three heroes.

After all, Felix, Gallio, and Calsus were from the army. They were not a ragtag bunch of adventurers.

First off, we have Felix. He was nearly two meters tall, and despite his muscular physique, he was a mage.

However, the magic staff that Felix used was vastly different from that of an ordinary mage.

The magic staff was as thick as an adult’s thigh and to some, it looked like a huge pillar.

There were all kinds of spells engraved on it. However, even if there were no spells engraved on it, and if it were used like a blunt staff, an ordinary person would still be crushed by its weight..

On the other hand, Gallio looked ordinary, but in truth, he was the leading alchemist in the nation, and he was especially well-versed in explosives.

In battlefields that required widespread destruction, Gallio alone could rival an entire army!

The three did not waste any time and they immediately set off with their respective armies! action

“Everyone, I wish you good luck!”

“No matter how strong Ancient Dragons are, they are nothing before our determination!”

Calsus drew his huge sword from his back and roared!

“They are nothing before our determination!!”

The soldiers behind him burst forth with strong morale at this moment.

…

In an extremely remote desert oasis, a figure appeared at this moment.

The middle-aged man held a fruit that was the size of a human head in his hand. A satisfied expression appeared on his face.

“Dragon-vanquishing Fruit. It is the most important material in creating Dragon-annihilation Missiles.”

“It contains an extremely potent irritant to dragons. Just smearing it on a dragon’s body can cause great discomfort to the dragon. At high potencies, it can even be used to create a concoction that can corrode the outer scales of dragons.”

“Alas, it is difficult to obtain these fruits. Otherwise, if we were to produce it in large quantities, humanity might be able to push back Ancient Dragons en-masse.”

The middle-aged man was the Dragon Slayer, Bloom. At this moment, he was preparing for a battle against Agatha, Max, and Mia.

When it came to slaying dragons, Bloom believed that preparation was the key to success.

After all, humans were fragile beings. If not for their intelligence and schemes, they would be no match against dragons.

Bloom believed that although the dragons were strong, they still had their weaknesses.

For example, although Black Dragons had strong physical bodies, they were inept when it came to magic. On the other hand, Silver Dragons were indecisive and often times, they would put themselves in disadvantageous spots, allowing Bloom to take their lives in a single move.

Regardless, the Red Dragons he intended to face this time had no particular weakness to speak of.

However, Bloom already had an idea. Since Agatha was difficult to deal with, he would start off by slaying her children.
