Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Dragon Spirit Kingdom, parliament hall.
This should be the first time that the commander-in-chief of the Dragon Protector Army, Protector Duke Dragon Yandao, had brought some generals of the Dragon Protector Army to participate in the parliament to discuss how to distribute resources.
There were more than 300 people in the hall.
Among them, the smallest noble title was a Viscount of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom.
Lin Chen was naturally among them.
However, Lin Chen was wearing the clothes of the deputy commander of the Dragon Protector Army today.
That’s right!
Lin Chen was promoted.
He was directly promoted to deputy commander-in-chief.
This should have been a position that only someone at Schonnertel’s level could hold.
However, Schonnertel did not go to the empire’s battlefield.
Even though last time, Dragon Yandao felt that something was wrong and asked someone to call him, Schonnertel refused on the grounds that he was going to Lingnan to inspect military affairs.
As a result, it was Achilles who rushed over to help Dragon Yandao deal with Jing Qicang’s attack in the last battle outside the divine city.
Although Dragon Yandao didn’t say anything, he didn’t even look at Schonnertel when he saw him.
The position of deputy commander of the Dragon Protector Army was also given to Lin Chen.
Schonnertel’s expression was very ugly.
The atmosphere in the parliament hall was also slightly oppressive.
First of all, Dragon Yandao was here.
Moreover, he had also brought many rewards for the Dragon Protector Army.
Harriet, Ponga, Big Hud, Little Hud, Gold Mu, Jiang Haihe… They were all present.
Even Sword Silk was there.
However, she was standing beside Lin Chen.
In addition, there was also a portion of Dragon Yandao’s guards on the left and right.
This should be the first time the parliament of the Dragon Spirit Kingdom had been held under the noses of so many soldiers.
However, since Duke Shun, Dragon Yanhui, did not say anything, the nobles naturally could not object.
The parliament had begun.
Dragon Yanhui, the chief official, began to speak. “First of all, this time, our Dragon Spirit Kingdom…”
As soon as he started, Dragon Yandao interrupted him and said, “Let’s get straight to the point. I’ve already scattered the divine light all over the Dragon Spirit Kingdom. Now, it’s about the distribution of the soul mine. Now, I want to hear how the parliament decides the distribution!”
Dragon Yandao was really not giving him any face!
Both Dragon Yanhui and Dragon Yandao were from the Yan generation.
The two of them were cousins.
However, they had long acquaintancess who only nodded when they met.
Dragon Yanhui braced himself and said, “Ever since the Dragon Spirit Kingdom was established, in order to protect the contributions of the people who fought alongside him and their descendants, our ancestor established a parliament. It means that the royal family shares the world with these nobles… As early as the ancestor’s era, the rules were set. The royal family gets 40% of everything in the Dragon Spirit Kingdom, the nobles get 40%, and everyone else get 20%.” “What do you mean? Where’s our Dragon Protector Army?”
At this moment, Jiang Haihe spoke.
That’s right, it was him!
A person from the Blue Planet.
Guess why Jiang Haihe was here?
Moreover, it was Dragon Yandao who let him in as the commander of the Dragon Victory Army.
That’s right. After Lin Chen was promoted to deputy commander-in-chief of the Dragon Protector Army, he handed the Dragon Victory Army over to Jiang Haihe.
And now, Jiang Haihe’s words were because Dragon Yandao let him speak.
In the past, Dragon Yandao only focused on the battlefield and did not distribute the benefits. That was because the cake was only so big and could not be divided. He was too lazy to split it. In any case, he just had to pay enough military expenses.
But this time, the cake was too big.
There was a large mineral vein the size of the imperial capital. If it was split, there could be a hundred mineral veins that were comparable to the soul mineral veins that stretched across 18 mountain ranges outside Sky Moon City. What kind of generous reward was this? In the end, the Dragon Protector Army that had painstakingly obtained would not have a single cent?
As for Lin Chen?
Would he also get nothing?
The reward for the first place settlement of the empire’s battlefield was at least double that of the level-one battlefield.
Note that it was at least!
In other words, it might be more than that.
But how exactly was it calculated?
Of course, it was based on points!
This time, the reason why the Dragon Spirit Kingdom could obtain such a huge soul mine was because Lin Chen had obtained 1,500 points alone.
It was unprecedented!
In the end, when it was time to split the cake, Lin Chen did not have any at all?
Dragon Yandao had asked Jiang Haihe to come in to find someone to say this. “Isn’t this person a traitor? Protector Duke, shouldn’t you make him go out?” Dragon Yanhui asked coldly.
Hearing his words, Dragon Yandao sneered.
As expected, it was still the same.
In the eyes of these nobles, there would always be only vested interests.
They would always only care about themselves.
Why did he say that?
Dragon Yanhui’s opinion alone could not represent all the nobles!
Of course, Dragon Yandao knew what was going on.
Before the parliament began, the nobles gathered for a meeting.
It was impossible not to discuss it.
How could the nobles not have designs on such a generous reward this time?
A dog could never change its habit of eating shit!
“This person is now the commander of the Dragon Victory Army under the Dragon Protector Army on the empire’s battlefield. He was recommended by Vice Commander Lin Chen and vouched for it. Lin Chen was promoted to Vice Commander of the Dragon Protector Army with military merit. You can ask these people if any of them have any objections,” Dragon Yandao said calmly.
“Without Vice Commander Lin Chen, how could the Dragon Spirit Kingdom be number one?”
Little Hud was the first to speak.
Then, all the soldiers of the Dragon Protector Army echoed, “Deputy Commander Lin Chen contributed greatly to the Dragon Spirit Kingdom getting first place this time!”
“You guys!”
Dragon Yanhui said coldly, “This is the parliament. Who are you to speak?”
“Haha!”
At this moment, Lin Chen stood up and asked Dragon Yanhui, “These people are all soldiers and generals who fought for the Dragon Spirit Kingdom on the empire’s battlefield.. Without them, not to mention cultivation resources, even the entire Dragon Spirit Kingdom and the human race might have been wiped out! And now, you’re actually saying that they don’t have the right to speak at the meeting to distribute the spoils of war?”
