Chapter 454: 442 New Reinforcements_1
With the Endless Demon Sovereign defeated, Otto’s own hidden dangers were resolved, and he naturally felt at ease to focus his energy on other matters.

However, before that, he needed to recuperate properly.

To permanently deal with the Endless Demon Sovereign this time, not only did he lose Silver Dragon Otto’s body completely, but he also suffered a small part of his soul damage.

Although he achieved satisfactory results, the cost was quite heavy.

So, after Otto incorporated the remaining soul entities into his body, he has been eating and recuperating constantly, striving to recover his peak state as soon as possible.

Meanwhile, after devouring the black sphere, Otto also gained some new abilities from the Endless Demon Sovereign, and at this time, he also needed time to have a good sleep.

Lately, there has been a lot of commotion on the Blackstone Floating City.

Apart from repairing the square damaged by Otto and the Endless Demon Sovereign, other surrounding buildings were also being constructed day and night.

At the same time, Sofia and Blackhand had come up with some simple ideas about transforming the Floating City, and they were currently in the process of turning these ideas into reality.

So recently, there has been a lot of commotion on the Blackstone Floating City, and even Otto felt a bit annoyed by the noise.

Sleeping in such an environment was simply torture.

So, in order to have some peace, he flew down to Purgatory City below, preferring to be in the company of a bunch of Undead.

In Purgatory City, Otto unexpectedly saw a familiar figure.

Upon closer inspection, wasn’t that the old Lizardman Saru, who he hadn’t seen for a long time?

If Otto remembered correctly, this old Lizardman should be with Gaz at this time.

When Saru was called to Otto’s side, he was first taken aback and then respectfully knelt before Otto.

Although Otto was still in his Black Dragon form, Saru was one of the few who knew Otto’s true identity.

“Great Silver Dragon Lord, I came back mainly to ask you personally how we should proceed next,” Saru said, maintaining his respect for Otto while not wasting time.

He quickly continued, “Currently, the Soaring Dragon Legion and Nord Legion have captured the entire Felton for you. Apart from some forces left behind to integrate Felton, the remaining monsters and Nord people are stationed at the border of the Western Empire.”

It seemed that the situation was much smoother than Otto had imagined.

The sudden aggression of the Eastern Empire, coupled with the Western Empire’s waste of too many manpower and resources in the Dragon Bone Wasteland, and even losing the most powerful Stania among the three Floating Cities.

The once-dominating behemoth of the continent was now in a precarious state, and naturally, there was no energy to care for Felton’s life and death.

This crisis, if handled improperly, could turn even the historically powerful Western Empire into a thing of the past.

The reason for Saru’s return was clear: he wanted to ask Otto whether they should continue to launch attacks on the Western Empire.

In the old Lizardman’s view, doing nothing at this time and merely watching the two great empires of the East and West fighting each other would be a good choice.

However, Otto had different opinions on this.

As the old Lizardman looked at him in confusion, Otto looked up at the sky, and the former naturally followed suit.

Then, Saru saw a majestic and shocking Floating City.

It was Stania, which had changed owners, but it was better to call it the Blackstone Floating City at this time.

After that, Otto said indifferently, “After losing Stania, even with a deep foundation, the Western Empire cannot be a match for the Eastern Empire.

If we leave them alone, the once-dominating behemoth on this continent may wake up soon.

Two enemies with their own agenda are always easier to deal with than a united behemoth.”

“In any case, the two great empires of the East and West must never be reunified. Do you understand what I mean?”

Although the Western Empire is in a sorry state now, its foundation remains and its human and material resources are still terrifying.

The reason for their current miserable state is entirely due to several consecutive wrong decisions they made.

If they are eventually annexed by the Eastern Empire, then the newly-emerged empire will still become a terrifying force on the continent that no one can shake.

Even Otto is no exception.

Just looking at the map would reveal that the territories of the eastern and western empires together occupy half of the continent, which is a terrifying concept.

Saru lowered his head and pondered for a moment before quickly understanding Otto’s intention.

Now, the Western Empire has a hard time dealing with the war on both sides; this once-powerful empire has now become a delicious piece of cake.

Both the Eastern Empire and Otto are preparing to feast on this cake, and it is even an all-you-can-eat buffet.

Now the parties need to rely on their abilities to see who can eat more in the end.

The old Lizardman understood Otto’s meaning, but there was still a question in his heart that needed to be resolved.

“Great Silver Dragon Lord, what if the Eastern Empire uses the Floating City?”

Upon saying this, Saru didn’t hide his worried expression and kept glancing upward at the Blackstone Floating City, secretly salivating.

Although the Soaring Dragon Legion and the Nord Legion are powerful, they are just targets under the Floating City.

But if they could have a Floating City as a stronghold, it would be completely different.

To this, Otto dismissed it, saying, “It’s just a Floating City. We have one too, um … although it is currently in the preparation stage and not very convenient to use.”

Just as Saru was disappointed, Otto seemed to suddenly think of something and, squinting, said, “I almost forgot; if all goes well, you will soon welcome new reinforcements.

“A Floating City? Your reinforcements will bring it to you.”

After saying that, Otto lay down on the spot and fell asleep, apparently not wanting to continue talking with Saru.

The old Lizardman took his leave, and after leaving the vicinity of Purgatory City, he finally realized what the so-called reinforcements were.

There are only three Floating Cities in this world; one belongs to the Eastern Empire, the Western Empire’s has already changed owners.

As for the last one, it belongs to the Elves in the Dawn Forest.

If he remembered correctly, the Old Elf King had recently passed away, much earlier than the expected time of death, and Catherine and Elise undoubtedly played a part in this.

It seemed that it was settled.

After understanding this, Saru left with satisfaction.
