Chapter 467 Treaty
The negotiation ended like this.
The Efreet Empire and the Ember Empire signed an "Imperial Treaty of Friendly Exchanges."
The respective monarchs of the two countries, the Fire Djinn Great Sultan and the Ember Emperor Cassius, represented their respective countries and swore an oath to the essence of the fire elemental plane and entered into a contract.
1. The Efreet Nation provides twenty-five wishes to the Ember Empire every year for at least ten years.
2. The Efreet Kingdom will pay 5 million Jinnar in the form of elemental ores to the Burning Ember Empire to purchase a large number of arms.
3. The efreet kingdom handed over control of the Iron City and the Black Iron City, and ended its intrusion on the Brass Fortress.
The Great Sultan angrily caused his projection to explode, creating a deep pit with a diameter of a hundred meters at the scene, while his body continued to recover from his injuries in his charcoal palace.
The fire djinn Pasha Ismail was dejected, and he led his soldiers back to the City of Brass.
According to the usual practice for a defeated pasha, what awaits him will be the punishment of the Sultan and the challenge of the ambitious efreeti warriors.
Although efreet officials strictly controlled speech, news of the battle spread like wildfire, causing great panic among the efreets.
In just a few days, the "Battle in the Scorching Wasteland" had spread throughout the efreedom kingdom and even reached the Holy Flame Rebel Army.
In that rumor, the red dragon emperor from the material plane bit off the head of Ismail Pasha. It was not until the Sultan arrived that Ismail was able to resurrect and escape.
After unknown negotiations and an unknown price, the two sides finally ceased fighting - there were even rumors that the Sultan paid a hundred wishes per year to invite the god of plague away.
And Cassius's name was completely spread in the inner plane.
Many residents of the fire, wind, water, earth, positive energy, and negative energy planes know the name of this dragon, especially the terrifying name of the "Soul-Eating Dragon."
On the outskirts of the Black Iron City, there is a scorching wasteland.
As a former battlefield, the earth is riddled with holes. Hot magma flows in those deep cracks and pits, and clusters of flames erupt from time to time.
"Roar——"
The red dragon looked up to the sky and roared, suddenly spread its wings and stretched out its left claw.
Flames symbolizing the essence of the plane surged from all around, forming a complex array in his palm.
【Summon Elemental Monster】
A whirlpool of flames appeared in mid-air, and a huge monster more than ten meters high crawled out of it. He roared and knelt down in front of Cassius obediently.
Its body is made of flames and lava, and every inch of its body contains violent fire element energy, which is enough to turn mortal cities into ashes and ruins.
【Fire element monster】
Challenge Level: 16
“Not bad.”
Cassius stared at the giant monster in the distance, nodded with satisfaction, waved his claws casually, and the giant monster disappeared.
He lowered his head and stared at the red flames in his claws.
This is the power that represents an extremely small part of the authority of the fire elemental plane.
After these few days of experimentation, he has been able to master the power that comes from Ismail Pasha—more precisely, from the Great Sultan of the Fire Djinn.
He has even felt the essence of this power - a god-like power that affects the elemental plane.
The Elemental Lords do not rule their respective planes and all the elements there. The authority they receive is only superficial, not real divine power, but the difference is only a short distance away.
The Great Sultan's plan is probably to bring the entire Fire Elemental Plane under the rule of the Fire Djinn Kingdom, so that his "authority" can rise to the level of the entire plane.
It turns out to be somewhat similar to Cassius's domain.
And those six pashas were undoubtedly the carriers of the Great Sultan's power, and they were sacrifices carefully cultivated for the purpose of ascension to the gods. Before he could even use them, Cassius ate them first.
But even if Cassius doesn't "eat" the pasha, the powerful Flame God will not allow anyone to covet his authority.
For the sake of balance of power, the Burning War will continue for a long time. There will be no real winner in this game. If there is, it can only be an outsider like Cassius who fishes in troubled waters and reaps the benefits.
Cassius grinned, feeling the power close to the essence of the fire element filling his body.
"What an unexpected surprise! After absorbing this power, I can be considered an elemental noble."
"It's really interesting."
The flames kept changing in his claws, sometimes turning into birds, sometimes into swimming fish, and sometimes into giant dragons flapping their wings.
After absorbing this power, Cassius's control over the flames has reached an extremely terrifying level.
The red dragon itself has the core of the fire element and is often regarded as a semi-elemental creature by scholars. After gaining the power of the elf pasha, Cassius can be called the "fire elemental plane" to a certain extent. Aboriginal”.
【Command elementElementalCommand】
As an elemental master, you can attempt to control elemental creatures of the same type as yourself. The target is completely controlled by you unless it succeeds on a Will save.
Cassius thought, and light flashed in his pale golden pupils.
Suddenly, the firebirds in the orange sky were controlled by him and formed into various formations.
The fire boys jumped out of the lava one by one and stood in a neat row, as if the red dragon was their natural king.
"Tsk tsk, what a great place. If I could have a safe area, I would want to sleep here."
"It's a pity that I signed a contract with the Sultan to leave the fire elemental plane within ten days."
"In this case, let's meet the Holy Flame Prince before leaving."
Cassius thought so.
Ever since, the red dragon flapped its wings, setting off a hurricane carrying ashes and sparks on the scorching wasteland, and its huge dragon body soared into the sky.
"Roar——"
With another long roar, Cassius flapped his wings again, and the dragon body turned into a red afterimage, cutting through the orange sky and flying into the distance.
The imperial soldiers and free citizens on the city wall looked at the figure that streaked across the sky like a meteor, and exclaimed in surprise.
"Look!"
"It's His Majesty Cassius!"
"Is that true? Your Majesty, he has left the plane of fire!"
"The great red dragon"
Feelings of loss and reluctance pervaded the city walls.
Many soldiers and free people knelt down in the direction where the red dragon left, muttering in their mouths, as if praying for something.
In the Black Iron City, Serkan, who was still directing the repair of the city's defenses, raised his head, looked into the distance, beat his chest with his fist, and performed a standard "loyalty" salute.
His eyes were full of determination and emotion.
"His Majesty Cassius"
"I will definitely live up to your high expectations, become a qualified colonial governor, build a solid position for the empire on the plane of fire, and welcome your next visit."
"At that time, you will become the master of the fire elemental plane."
