Dragon Lord Crane Smith

Chapter 30 I'm Retiring

"Oh, I'm not outside the country, but I still have you guys, don't I?"

The corners of Crane's mouth rose slightly.

Each of the four men under his throne was the rank of a top power.

With one random person stepping out and relying on the prestige of today's Cryptoclidus Palace, not

much movement would happen outside of the borders in ten years.

After all, all of these people had left their names on the Western Gods List, and even more so, each of

them had founded a major power on an international level.

Matthew and Kevin have tens of thousands of dragon guards and tiger guards respectively in hand,

who can rival a million majestic soldiers.

Paige is not involved in the management of the Dragon Guards and Tiger Guards, she controls the

Queen Bee, the top international intelligence agency. In a world where intelligence information is

paramount, Paige is in more danger than Kevin.

Even Joey was the best weapon expert in the world, as well as a super assassin, enough to stand up

to thousands of elite soldiers on his own.

Coupled with the fact that he had trained many top and even super assassins under his hand, the

successful assassinations over the years were at least arms barons, business tycoons, and a side of

drug lords, leaving countless people in the dark.

Especially since his home base was located on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, and in terms of

terror, it was more fearful than the Cryptoclidus Palace.

They were all superb people of the world, and even more so, they held absolute violence, power, and

wealth in their hands, with them, Crane believed that nothing bad would happen to Cryptoclidus

Palace.

The three naturally understood this point, except that Crane's words were just like a big intention to

retire.

Nowadays, they could only hope in their hearts that Crane's mind was not like that, otherwise they

were really going to go crazy.

Just the next moment, Crane nodded slightly, said with a smile, "You guys guessed correctly, my

purpose is to retire."

He had long held that intention, and even without that phone call from Nadia, he had planned to retire

in the territory and not go out to war outside.

“Lord Smith, you'd better think twice about it, in that battle six months ago…."

Paige still wanted to talk some more, but was stopped by Crane.

It was also at this point that Paige realized she had said words wrong and hastily shut up.

Although Joey and Kevin were suspicious, they saw that Crane did not allow them to ask, so they

naturally dare not ask more questions.

Crane went on slowly.

"There is no need to persuade me. To be honest, the reason I have stayed outside of the country all

these years is to repay my master for saving my life, and also to train myself."

"Now that the outside world has been pacified, my presence is instead the biggest threat, so it's better

to retreat to the second line so that all those outside the world can be at ease, it's a win-win situation."

"But Lord Smith, you have made so many contributions to the Cryptoclidus Palace and to T Country,

the position of Dragon Lord should have been an honor that you have, if you were to abdicate, I'm

afraid that the men below would have resentment in their hearts."

Paige said, and Kevin echoed, "Paige is right, only when you are on the throne can you deter the group

outside the country and make the man in the Palace submissive."

"Although we have some power, we are nothing compared to your prestige, Lord Smith.”

"Besides, there is peace outside of our borders, but there is still a huge threat across the Atlantic, and

once those people try to strike at Eastland, I'm only afraid that a few of us will have trouble fighting it!"

Kevin said seriously.

Although he screamed day in and day out about challenging Crane, if someone else were to say such

words, he would only be able to blow the other party's brains out on the spot.

To Crane, Kevin was convinced and had absolutely no complaints.

"Kevin, you're still reckless, you have one of the two major armed forces of our Cryptoclidus Palace,

the Tiger Guards under your hands, you can't be too reckless like you were in the past."

"Also, my words just now were not a discussion with you, but an order."

"My mind is made up, from today onwards, I will step down as Dragon Lord of the Cryptoclidus Palace,

but rest assured that once a strong enemy does come, I will be bound to fight."

"Whoever dares to cause trouble inside and outside the territory of my Tang Country, then don't blame

me for being merciless."

"Finally, I wish you have improvement in martial arts."

"......"

Paige and Kevin were completely dumbfounded.

Joey was silent for a while before saying, “Lord Smith, could it be that you want to put that one on the

throne?"

"Hmm?"

Crane froze at first, and then laughed out loud.

Paige and Kevin enlightened and said, "No, Lord Smith, that fellow's ambition is too great, he has

never thought of defending the safety and security of T Country, his aim from the beginning is to

expand the territory and control the real kingdom."

"If we let that guy take the throne, I'm afraid that sooner or later, he will make a move against T

Country, and will definitely be a huge threat to T Country!"

Paige and Kevin had a pang of nausea when they thought of that man.

Crane also understood this and immediately denied it.

"No need to think much about it, if he does get to the top, what can he do? I think several of you, in

terms of ability, are every bit as good as him, not including ambition."

"But he has ambition alone, why should you fear him?"

"But you can rest assured that I will train a successor, one that will satisfy any of you, ok?"

"But ......"

"Paige, that's enough."

Joey stopped Paige, looked back at Crane and said indifferently, "In regard of stepping down from the novelbin

position of Dragon Lord, let's wait for the matter to be completely calmed down on the battlefield

outside the country first."

"But I want you to remember one thing, the country is very important, but the family is equally

important."

"You must woo Mrs. Smith and live happily with the young lords."

"As for outside the country, the three of us will guard for you, as long as we don't die, no one will be

allowed to cross the border to harass you. Let Matthew stay, I think you should need a right-hand man

if you want to develop your power in the territory."

"Well, that's good advice, Matthew is force superior, and he is good at social contact, at least no less

than Paige, so I can succeed if I have his assistance."

Crane agreed.

Then Joey, Paige and Kevin all left respectfully.

After leaving this door, Kevin slammed his fist into the wall.

"What does Lord Smith mean by this, could it be that he doesn't want us anymore?" He said angrily.

Paige's face was also rather unpleasant.

Only Joey's eyes were flooded with a cold and different look.

"I think I know what he is thinking."

"Leaving aside the point that it's for Mrs. Smith and the two young lords, Lord Smith wants revenge on

the Smith family."

"Joey, you mean Lord Smith wants to retaliate against the Smith family? Then he should require us

even more!"
