Warhammer: Return of the Dragon.

The next day, a haggard Laun still attended the summit. His wandering eyes showed no concern for Karl Franz's lofty words, and he seemed to be struggling violently in his heart.

Such a situation naturally attracted the attention of those present, but because what was about to happen was so eye-catching, people temporarily put aside their thoughts about Bretonnia.

As we all know, the frequency of Chaos War Gang's invasions to the south has increased. The Guardian Army has organized many expeditions, going deep into the Chaos Wasteland in the name of Ersun, killing all the Norse barbarians they saw along the way.

This move was supported by the King of Dulong City. The two sides jointly destroyed nearly one-third of the Norse tribe two years ago...but the result was that apart from ensuring a few months of peace, a new group of northern barbarians appeared.

Kislev is crucial to ensuring that the threat of Chaos to the south is reduced, and Katerin Boha, who is about to enter the battlefield, will give Karl a headache.

Because Kislev had informed in advance that he did not have the energy to participate, only four parties were arranged in the conference room. Although there were many empty seats left, it would be difficult to make a reasonable arrangement.

Out of support for the brother kingdom, Karl chose to place Catherine next to him, and the future tsarina had the right to do so.

Catherine took her ice and snow maid to the table. When she heard the servant remind her that her seat was next to Emperor Karl, she glanced at the Phoenix King.

She was well aware of the significance of this summit, to gain more support from all parties. From today's perspective, if she wanted to secure her position as Tsar, Imrik's attitude was very important.

Imrik nodded, indicating that Katerin should sit next to Emperor Karl.

Katerina's arrival gradually changed the theme of the summit from some tentative cooperation to truly important topics.

Although she looked young, the cold-as-ice Katerine did not seem to lack temperament. After finishing a discussion about the freight volume of Marienburg, the Ice Princess raised her hand, indicating that she had something to say.

"Everyone, I think you should all know about Kislev's expedition to the Chaos Wasteland... I will repeat it here and give you the detailed information.

First, General Petrov led the 1st Guards Army, the 3rd Artillery Army and the 4th Giant Bear Army from Hanlintan and marched westward. Before arriving at Dulong City, they killed a total of 140,000 Norsemen, including countless trolls, war mastiffs, werewolves, etc.

His Majesty Sogard Cromson, the King of Dulong City, joined General Petrov and marched along the Norse Mountains together until their supplies ran out. They expected to kill more than 600,000 Norsemen in total...

Another expedition route is along the east side of the World's Edge Mountains, heading towards Karak Solitude, General Harland..."

The High King's brows jumped. According to Agrim, this General Harland was a vampire, whom the Butcher King had encountered during the Holy War in Lustria.

Harland has an absolutely elite force under his command, an organization called the Blood Serpent Brotherhood. Most of its members are veterans who survived the Snake and Rat Crusade, and some humans who are devout believers in Sotek are also added as members.

A group of vampires with firm beliefs. Although their numbers are extremely small, with only a hundred of them appearing during the attack on Karak Solitude, Agrim's evaluation is that they are not inferior to the Butcher King's guards.

In front of everyone, Thorgrin pointed out the problem: "Princess Catherine Boha, you should know the true identity of General Harland, right? I hope he is not a remnant of the bloody female tsar, nor a spy from Sylvania." The Supreme King with a white beard was respectful at first glance. Catherine was not angry at being interrupted: "Of course, General Harland is a vampire, a vampire converted by the bloody female tsar Catherine."

The first person to express shock was naturally Karl Franz. His Majesty the Emperor had heard rumors about General Haaland.

The bald man with a red forked snake tattooed on his neck is tall and is known for his ruthless efficiency and cruelty in combat. He is best at eliminating the Yankees at an unstoppable speed.

Compared to the Guards who relied more on fire support, the legions under his command continued with a more traditional approach, with cavalry, giant bears, and Cossachs taking to the battlefield.

The emperor turned his head and tried to question whether this was true. Harland was a guy who had appeared recently. If he was a vampire... he shouldn't be so unknown.

Katerin asked the emperor to be patient and she would explain it clearly: "This is General Raskol's consent. The Blood Snake Brotherhood within the Patriotic Army has long been monitoring successive generals for nearly two hundred years...

Over the past two hundred years, they have made countless contributions to Kislev, silently watching over the north in the cold and dark nights. Moreover, General Harland has fought with King Agrim many times. I believe the Butcher King can prove to me that although Harland is a vampire, he has a loyal heart. "

Harland... Katerin's only impression of him was fear.

The man with the forked giant snake tattoo exudes a bloodthirsty aura that is enough to corrode ice. They only meet occasionally under the protection of their father Boris, so the Brotherhood's Serpent Leaders are always wary of her.

Although... the reason he was so wary of me was because Katrin killed Dettlaff and Mazov.

In the past, Katerina would never have mentioned a vampire general at such an important summit, as this would show other countries that the Tsar lacked control over Kislev.

But Mazov always teaches. For example, before this summit, Katerin was told that there were not many things to do, just a few in fact.

The first thing is to show absolute resistance to Chaos, without the slightest bit of weakness. Mentioning Harland becomes a by-product of this move to gain the favor of the Blood Snake Brotherhood.

Secondly, join the joint organization organized by the Empire, but do not stand on the side of the elves. The Phoenix King will not be angry because of this move, but the Empire is likely to become suspicious because of Kislev's good relationship with the elves.

Finally, she wanted to make a marriage contract with Emperor Karl's eldest son... but Catherine flatly rejected this and asked why she couldn't find Menil if they were marrying for profit. The future Prince of Caledor was much more valuable than the Elector of Reikland.

Mazov's expression at that time could only be described as absurd. The Dragon Court was raising you as a pet, not expecting you to steal their treasure.

There are few things to do, but there is a lot to deal with.

Agrim, who was asked, did not hesitate much: "Well, Haaland is a good guy. I had a drink with him two hundred years ago... Oliveira can also prove his reliability." (End of this chapter)
