My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start

Chapter 562: The New City Lord

“Your Highness, we have disappointed you.”

After the resurrected planetary fortress’ soldiers came back to life, with Colette as the leader, they knelt on one knee toward Watson. They felt shameful.

They had consumed the Dragon Transformation Potion and transformed into diamond-tier dragons. They thought they would be able to display their skills in front of Watson and defeat the enemy, but who would have thought that Beta would wipe out their army? If it were not for Watson and the others, they would not have revived.

It was not an exaggeration to say that even if Watson had given the potions to the pigs, it would not necessarily have a worse effect. They were professional soldiers, so how could they accept such a result? Their mentality had been inflated after consuming the potions because their strength had disappeared.

“All of you have disappointed me, indeed.”

Watson looked around and nodded. His words caused the expressions of the soldiers to become even gloomier.

“It’s not because your strength is lacking, but because you have become dejected after failing once and even lost the courage to fight! So what if you failed? Failure is not a scary thing. There will always be stronger people in this world, no matter how strong you are. It will be fine as long as you work hard to become stronger to surpass the enemy. Are you afraid of failure?”

The soldiers looked at each other and shook their heads. “We are not afraid.”

“Do you have the ability to continue to become stronger? Right now, you are at the peak of your strength. Will you improve in the future? ”

“We will improve.”

The soldiers answered in unison again. That time, their voices were much louder and more orderly.

“Put away your despondent feelings and head to the planetary fortresses to begin training. If you want to avoid making mistakes, there is nothing more efficient than seizing every minute and second to train! No matter how strong you are, you are still weak without a strong heart. The weak have no way to protect their family and friends in this world. You can only watch as enemies trample upon them. I hope my potion can create an invincible army that can defend the Holy Dragon Kingdom and not a bunch of trash who lose their fighting spirit once they fail.”

“Yes, Your Highness. We will definitely not disappoint you.”

All the soldiers clenched their fists. Watson’s voice was not loud, but it was powerful. It stimulated the fighting spirit in their hearts. They had lived a disorganized life in the fortress city. That was why they had lost so quickly when the elven army attacked. They had experienced the pain of losing their loved ones. They did not want to experience such a feeling again.

Seeing the soldiers’ faces lit up with confidence again, Watson nodded with satisfaction. He had deliberately said those words. Those soldiers must have been in ecstasy after they took the potions to transform into dragons. He had to let them know that they were still far from it.

What Watson did not know was that the way he encouraged the army at that moment would make the future planetary fortress soldiers one of the most famous armies in the history of the Holy Dragon Kingdom. They would be famous throughout the world.

After lecturing the soldiers, Watson rode on the wind-elemental vortex and lightly landed back into the planetary fortress. He stood near the gate. Fawkes immediately walked up to him with a flattering smile on his face.

“Your Highness, you’ve worked hard. The battle was intense. Fortunately, you won! Your strength is truly unprecedented and unparalleled. It makes people sigh in admiration.”

“Okay, stop flattering me. I remember we made a bet before the planetary fortress soldiers went to battle.”

Watson spoke indifferently and glanced at Fawkes. His words made Fawkes’s heart thump, and his expression became stiff.

He had hoped to make Watson happy, and he had forgotten about the bet. He did not expect Watson to remember it still.

“The bet was that if I won, you would do one thing for me unconditionally! Don’t worry; it’s nothing difficult. We’ve just formed an army for the planetary fortress, and I will need a staff to manage them. You will take up that position, and you will also be responsible for its subsequent expansion. Since you lost that bet to me, don’t expect me to pay you for doing that.”

He patted Fawkes’s shoulder and smiled amidst Fawkes’ tearless response.

Fawkes frowned, and his eyes were filled with regret. If he had known that was the result, he would have agreed to take the initiative before the bet, and he would not have lost his reward then.

After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly thought of a problem. “Your Highness, if I were to become a staff for the planetary fortress’ army, then what would happen to my position as the city lord?”

“Don’t worry about that. I already have a candidate for the new city lord position.”

Watson clapped his hands.

They heard footsteps. The officials walked, out one after another, along the streets. A young woman stood at the head of a group of dozens of officials.

“What’s wrong with all of you? Who is that woman?” Fawkes asked nervously, as he had a bad feeling in his heart.

“Hello, Lord Fawkes. My name is Deena. From now on, I will be the lord of the first planetary fortress.”

The young woman was wearing a long black dress and a veiled hat that covered her beautiful face. At that moment, she bowed slightly and spoke slowly with a beautiful voice.

When she spoke, the officials looked at her with passionate eyes. They whispered, “Miss Deena’s voice is so beautiful.”

“I am so lucky to be able to see Miss Deena’s face under the veil.”

“It’s much better to have Miss Deena as the city lord than Fawkes. At least it doesn’t hurt my eyes.”

The officials’ comments made Fawkes’ face turn red, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. A bunch of lustful people actually wanted a woman to be the city lord because she was gorgeous and had a beautiful voice. That was too hasty. They even said that he was an eyesore. Was he really that ugly? He could not agree to that matter.

“Miss Deena, even if you are someone recommended by His Highness, you can’t be the city lord if you are not capable enough.”

“Really?”

As Deena spoke, she lifted the veil on her face, revealing a beautiful face underneath. Her delicate expression, coupled with her slightly sorrowful voice, instantly stunned Fawkes.

How could there be such a beautiful woman in the world?

Fawkes felt like his blood was boiling, and his eyes were seeing stars. All he could see was Deena’s face, and his ears were filled with her gentle and beautiful voice.

“Please, Lord Fawkes. I am very confident in my ability. If you don’t believe me, then you can find some time to guide me after you give up this position.” Deena took the opportunity to walk in front of Fawkes, raising her head, looking pitiful.

“Of course not. I am a person with principles.” Fawkes took two steps away from Deena and coughed twice. “Finding the time to guide you after giving up my position as the city lord is not in line with the etiquette of a noble, so there is no need to find the time! I can tell you about the various affairs in the planetary fortress. Miss Deena, please follow me.”

“Let’s go.” Deena was initially stunned by Fawkes’ actions. At that moment, she covered her face with the veil again. Then, she left with Fawkes, who had been pretending to be righteous just a moment ago. He was bewitched by Deena’s beauty and was acting even more ridiculous than before.

Soon, those officials reacted and chased after her.

“Miss Deena, wait for us. Let us explain the city’s matters to you.”

“We are low-tier officials. We know more about the various industries in the city than Lord Fawkes.”
