Early in the morning, when the first rays of sunlight poured down on the earth, Vermes finally crossed the low mountains and hills north of Myratma and landed on a peak at least a thousand meters above sea level.

It is very close to the Surdasken River in the north and the capital of the Tesser, Zazespo, probably less than 50 kilometers away.

Not far away is the main transportation route that connects the whole country to the east and west.

A large number of caravans and vendors pass by almost every day.

I'm afraid no one would have thought that such a place would actually inhabit a male red dragon in his prime - Bertogas.

What's even more interesting is that this evil colored dragon never took advantage of the favorable terrain on its doorstep to rob passing caravans.

Quite the opposite!

Every time he wanted to loot a caravan, he would fly more than a hundred and sixty kilometers away, near the entrance of the Northern Vortex Mountain Range.

Therefore, the scholars, nobles, and adventurers of Zazespor mistakenly believed that Bertorgas' lair should be in the Vortex Mountains.

As a result, several people were sent to investigate, but in the end nothing was found.

But Vermes knew very well that this insidious and cunning guy was deliberately misleading those pathetic mortals.

I want them to have a head-on confrontation with the powerful red dragon of Balagas "Flying Flame", and then they can reap the benefits of the fisherman.

This is because one of the latter's lairs is located at the top of one of the extinct volcanoes in the Star Swirl Mountains.

You must know that Balagath "Flying Flame" is one of the most famous and active primeval red dragons in the entire Faeron Continent.

Due to its great strength and tyrannical and cruel character, it is even affectionately called "Dragon Scourge" by the elves.

The number of adventure groups, cities, mage towers, and fleets he destroyed alone was too numerous to write down in a few pieces of parchment.

In addition, Baragas "Flying Flame" is also the favorite dragon of the whole of Faeron to slaughter its own kind.

Yes!

You read that right!

In addition to his penchant for destroying and slaughtering humans and elves, he often roams over his claimed territory as he pleases.

Then randomly select one of the lucky ones and rush into their lair to kill, eat, and take all the treasure.

Of course, it is also possible to drag the victim out of the lair and eat them alive under the watchful eyes of other dragons.

In order to assert his absolute power and dominance.

And these slain dragons may be good dragons like silver dragons, golden dragons, bronze dragons, and brass dragons, or evil dragons like red dragons, black dragons, and green dragons.

In short, Baragas "Flying Flame" never needed a reason to kill a dragon.

Maybe it was just a temporary whim, or maybe he felt that the dragon was too weak to live, let alone possess treasure.

No doubt!

This guy is a truly bloodthirsty and brutal tyrant who does whatever he wants!

Almost all the idols worshipped by the Red Dragon!

There is not a single Red Dragon Society that does not want to be like Balagath "Flying Flame", becoming a "dragon king" and a "moving scourge" publicly recognized by all countries and forces.

But in the same way, they also aspire to be able to kill Baragas "Flying Flame" and replace him. …

Bertogas's behavior model is a perfect embodiment of these two types of psychology.

On the one hand, he pinned his hopes on Balagas "Flying Flame" to help him destroy Zazespor;

On the other hand, he wanted Baragas "Flying Flame" to be seriously injured or simply dead during the attack on Zazespor.

If it's a lose-lose situation, it's even more perfect.

Vermes is well aware of Bertogas's hidden dirty ideas and the little things that have been secretly going on over the years.

It is precisely because of this that she did not hesitate to cut off this guy in the first place.

Save the time when the other party provokes Baragas "Flying Flame", and then he will be unlucky with him.

Just as Vermes was about to approach the door of the hidden cave, a red dragon larger than her suddenly came out of it, stared at two eyes like lava, and asked vigilantly, "Is that you?" What are you trying to do near my lair? ”

"Long time no see, Bertogas."

Vermes took the initiative to say hello.

She is very careful to keep a safe distance and tries not to make any movements that may cause misunderstanding or vigilance.

For the Red Dragons, since they are both completely immune to fire damage, the most important Spit weapon will be of little use in a civil war.

Once a battle breaks out, it will be an extremely tragic and bloody hand-to-hand combat.

At this time, whoever is larger, has stronger scales, and sharper teeth and claws will win the final victory.

Bertogas, who has entered the prime of life, obviously has an advantage over Vermes, who has just come of age.

"Answer my question! What is the purpose of your sudden approach to my lair? ”

Bertogas raised his head, holding on to the entrance to his lair.

Just as Vermes knew him, he knew the reckless and greedy female in front of him very well.

always feels that the other party is really spying on the huge wealth he has accumulated through robbery over the years.

The two red dragons confronted each other like this for more than ten seconds before Vermes smiled and proposed, "I have come to invite you to loot the wealth of Myratma together."

You should be well aware of how rich this city is on the border of Kalinshan and Tesser.

I have assembled a large army.

As long as you join forces with me, it's only a matter of time before it is captured.

When the time comes, I will give you a third of the money, treasures, and riches you have plundered. ”

"What? So, all the monsters that have been looting villages, towns, and caravans near Myratma in recent times are your men? ”

Bertogas's tone revealed utter surprise.

Because he really couldn't imagine that Vermes, who has never liked to use his brains very much, could make such a big move this time.

Vermes pretended to be smug and nodded: "That's right! I did it!

Now, I have annihilated the regular army sent by Myratma.

All that remained of the city were a few improvised civilians.

How about it, are you interested in my invitation? ”

Hearing this, Bertogas immediately grinned and showed a fierce smile: "Of course interested!" How could it not be interested! But the price you're offering is too low, and a third is far from satisfying my appetite. I think half of one person is the fairest. ”…

"Dream! No way! I organized that army of monsters! The city is also surrounded by me! You only provided a small help at the last minute, so why should you take half of it? ”

Vermes unceremoniously rejected the other party's lion gap.

You don't need to ask to know that the reason why she did this is entirely to make this scene more realistic.

If he had simply agreed, the cunning Bertogas would have wondered if there was some conspiracy.

After all, no red dragon will easily give up or give up the wealth that is about to arrive.

As Vilmes had predicted, Bertogas soon fell into the misguided bargaining, completely unaware that it was an insidious and deadly trap.

Eventually, the two red dragons reached a verbal agreement to share the spoils.

For the wealth of Myratma, sixty percent of it goes to Vermes and forty percent to Bertogas.

However, Bertogas must ensure that in the next siege battle, he will personally attack the city walls with the monster army.

In this way, the two red dragons, one male and one female, rose into the air and quickly returned to the camp of the monster army outside the city.

Only this time, Vermez was very clever enough not to continue to maintain his dragon form, but to take on the form of a human.

As a result, those who can't tell the difference in appearance between the dragons will think of Bertogas as Vermes, and think that the red dragon is still the one who commands them.

As for the chiefs who know the truth, they are completely controlled by strange things with psychic abilities.

Quietly, the "backstabber" Bertogas has unwittingly become the leader of this monster army.

At least that's what it looks like to most outsiders...... . . .
