Mechanical God Emperor

Chapter 96 – Black Dragon Empire’s Royal Grand Arena

Translator: Xaiomoge

Black Dragon Empire’s imperial palace, in a study.

Solomon was sitting upright on a golden chair, holding a book in his hands and casually flipping through its pages.

Suddenly, Solomon said lightly: “Jim, have you investigated Rex’s identity?”

The space in a corner distorted slightly and a middle-aged man slowly appeared. He was wearing black tight-fitting garments, had a somewhat ugly appearance and a gloomy expression, and was exuding the terrifying life force of a pinnacle level-3 Warlock rank. The man said respectfully towards Solomon: “Your Majesty, his identity has been investigated clearly. Rex was a free citizen of Moha City of the Black Dragon Empire. After a stroke of luck, he obtained the inheritance of a rogue Warlock and went to settle down in the Obscure Mountain Range. When he emerged from the Obscure Mountain Range, he had been promoted to a level-1 Warlock and possessed black dragon’s bloodline.”

Solomon said indifferently: “Is the intelligence reliable?”

Jim said: “It is!”

“You can leave!”

“Yes, Your Majesty!” Jim’s body immediately disintegrated and formed into countless shavings of fog that disappeared from the study.

Time passed, the five days went by in a blink.

Black Dragon Empire’s Royal Grand Arena was huge, it could accommodate 100,000 people.

That huge Royal Grand Arena was normally used for betting on life and death fights. Savage beasts captured from all over as well as some extraordinary life forms comparable to official Warlocks, they would be thrown into this Royal Grand Arena and fight to the death against humans. While the aristocrats of the Black Dragon Empire would watch the bloody fights and bet on their outcome. This huge Royal Grand Arena would produce a tremendous revenue each year for the Black Dragon Empire.

“This is the Black Dragon Empire’s Royal Grand Arena, so imposing!” As Yang Feng entered the Black Dragon Empire’s Royal Grand Arena, he was severely shocked by the majestic arena.

Currently, this incomparably majestic arena was filled with aristocrats from all over the Black Dragon Empire.

The surface area of Black Dragon Empire was three times that of Earth’s China, and it had a heritage of several millennia. The number of aristocrats in the Black Dragon Empire was also astonishing. The capital’s streets were even more packed with aristocrats, if one were to throw a brick there, one would be able to hit quite the number of them.

At one end of the incomparably majestic Black Dragon Empire’s Royal Grand Arena, a suspended dais was built. On top of that suspended dais sat the ministers of the major departments of the Black Dragon Empire, as well as aristocrats with black dragon’s bloodline.

Yang Feng, as an aristocrat with black dragon’s bloodline, followed the other aristocrats with black dragon’s bloodline that sat in the most honorable place, the suspended dais, overlooking from up high the many aristocrats down below.

Sitting down below, below aristocrats like Yang Feng, who had black dragon’s bloodline, were aristocrats with black dragon serpent’s bloodline, black dragon lizard’s bloodline, and other bloodlines affiliated with black dragon’s bloodline.

Under the guidance of a maid, Yang Feng arrived above the suspended dais. With a glance, he saw Carol, Anusha and Angelica, the three women were sitting among the thirty six seats only second to the Emperor’s.

In the Black Dragon Empire, in addition to the bloodline of Anthony, the Tower Master of Black Dragon Tower, there were still thirty six other extremely powerful black dragon bloodline families. Within the thirty-six black dragon bloodline families, experts were as common as dirt and there was a sizable amount of level-3 Warlocks. Three families even gave birth to Great Warlock rank experts. They were the pillars of the Black Dragon Empire.

Below those thirty six seats sat the grand princes, the imperial ministers and the princes.

The Black Dragon Empire was different from the Warlock College Antalya, the imperial ministers of the Black Dragon Empire were all official Warlocks. The Warlocks firmly controlled the entire secular world. The entire Black Dragon Empire was under the control of Warlocks.

The secular world of Warlock College Antalya was mostly controlled by mortals. Warlocks were high above it all, conducting all kinds of research, seeking truth and pursuing the Warlock Path.

Next was Yang Feng’s seat, representing the lowest existences on the suspended dais.

After Reigns saw Yang Feng, he quickly called out: “Rex, come and sit next to me.”

The princess sitting beside Reigns stood up immediately, threw a coquettish glance at Yang Feng, then went down and sat on Yang Feng’s seat.

Yang Feng also naturally sat besides Reigns.

Once Yang Feng sat down, he then felt a malicious gaze. He turned and saw that Johan was looking at him.

On the suspended platform, where influential people were as common as dirt, Johan didn’t do anything unwise, only showing Yang Feng a slight gentleman’s smile.

Yang Feng also returned a hypocritical smile.

“His Majesty Solomon arrived!”

Solomon, under the protection of six experts emitting fluctuations of life force of level-3 Warlocks, slowly climbed the suspended dais.

“Respectful greetings Your Majesty!”

Everyone in the entire royal arena stood up and bowed slightly it salute towards Solomon.

Solomon gave a slight smile, climbed to the top of the suspended dais and sat on the imperial throne, then said indifferently: “Sit down!”

Solomon hadn’t spoken to loudly, but his voice seemed to have sounded beside every person’s ear.

Only then did everyone in the arena sat down.

Solomon said lightly: “Start the notarization!”

Carol waved a hand, a maid stepped forward with a stack of long prepared documents.

Everyone involved in the wager sent someone with stacks of long prepared documents and all kinds of treasures for a public notary inspection.

In fact, those documents and treasures have already been notarized in advance, right now being only a formality in front of Solomon.

After everything was quickly notarized, those notaries quickly retreated.

Solomon said lightly: “Begin!”

In that Black Dragon Empire’s Royal Grand Arena, two gates on opposite sides were opened. The two groups of followers of Anusha and Yang Feng, twenty people each, walked out respectively from within those two gates.

A presenter went to the center of the Black Dragon Empire’s Royal Grand Arena and said in high spirits: “Today, the two teams standing here are respectively the followers of Duke Anusha and Earl Rex. They will carry out life and death battles on the Dragon Battle Isle. This wager entails a huge sum of more than 100,000,000 Magic Stones.” [1]
