Finally, Martin made a decision, took the information handed to him by Roland, and studied it carefully.
Intelligence shows that the route starts from the Plains of the Holy Cross, passes through Lingfeng Town on the eastern border of the Kingdom of Dante, then enters the Emerald Forest, and finally arrives at the Yuehui Lingyu Forest.
Martin finished reading it, nodded slightly, and thought to himself: The distance is suitable, and the round-trip time is barely manageable. Most importantly, this is a transnational crime, and the possibility of detection is extremely small.
After thinking it over, Martin took out the communication crystal and contacted Del Luna, telling him to take the three knights and get ready immediately, and wait for him to meet up tomorrow morning.
After making the arrangements, Martin turned to Roland and solemnly instructed him, "For the next period of time, you will gradually shift the focus of the Chamber of Commerce to the Viscountry. The Viscountry is currently in need of reconstruction and is short of supplies. This matter cannot be delayed."
"However, Luoqiu Town cannot afford to lose anything either. Continue to gather business according to your plan. Go ahead and do it without any worries."
Roland accepted the order and withdrew respectfully.
Martin returned to the bedroom and saw one of the quintuplet maids. He used the system to check her loyalty and found that it had met the requirements.
He was immediately intrigued and curiously asked the maid to call the other four people. When the five of them gathered, Martin checked them one by one, confirming that their loyalty met the requirements, and then asked directly, "Are you willing to be loyal to me?"
The maids were puzzled, wondering if they had always been loyal. But seeing Martin's serious expression, they all replied in unison, "Yes."
After receiving the reply, Martin spent 750 energy to upgrade the quintuplets.
The upgrade process was extremely quick. The five people who had completed the upgrade all knelt on one knee and said, "Thank you for the reward, Master."
Martin nodded in satisfaction, now free from worries. However, he still told the maids to go back and familiarize themselves with their newfound powers; they wouldn't have to serve here tonight. The five maids followed his instructions and left one by one.
Martin was satisfied and had a good sleep.
The next morning, the sky was slightly bright and soft light shone into the house through the window.
Martin got up and dressed with the careful help of the five maids. Ever since the maids had become so devoted to him, Martin always felt that their service became more and more dedicated, and perhaps this was not his illusion.
After breakfast, Martin took Eric and Shuang Ning out of Luoqiu Town and headed towards Luoxia Valley. Before leaving, Martin asked the housekeeper Lilith to take the maids to the military camp to lead a hundred knights to the Viscount's territory, and then they set off.
Since Martin took away most of the members of the Knights of Dawn, the frequency of patrol teams appearing around Luoqiu Town has decreased significantly.
However, Martin didn't pay much attention to this. He was concerned with more important things at the moment and continued on his journey without stopping. When he arrived at Sunset Valley, Martin took the time to fill his magic backpack with magic crystals.
The dragon egg absorbs energy very quickly and needs to be replenished almost every two days. This time he simply stuffed his backpack full so that the dragon egg could absorb as much as possible, hoping that it could hatch soon.
Upon arriving at Sunset Valley, Martin saw twelve majestic golden knights already waiting outside. As Martin approached, they all shouted in unison, "Loyalty!"
Martin nodded slightly and led everyone into the valley. After entering the valley, Martin took out a high-level space ring and handed it to Del Luna. The ring contained 50,000 gold coins.
He looked at Del Luna and Alton and instructed them seriously, "The two of you, take these three knight orders and head to my Viscountry immediately. On the way, be sure to purchase slaves or other necessary supplies. First, go to the Viscountry to build a framework for development. I will reunite with you as soon as I finish my business here."
After receiving the order, Deluna and Alton quickly set off with the three knight groups that had already prepared.
Watching their retreating figures, Martin turned to the remaining ten Golden Knights and said solemnly, "Our mission this time is to rob a batch of supplies. The operation won't be too dangerous, but we must leave no trace."
Martin took out a magic item and continued, "This item can conceal the presence of all of you. Once the frost settles, you must rush forward and eliminate all the living. Afterwards, all the bodies must be stored in the interspatial ring. Don't be careless to prevent anyone from faking their own death."
After saying that, Martin took out seven space rings and distributed them to the seven knights who had just been promoted, and placed some gold coins and healing potions in each ring.
After everything was arranged, Martin asked Eric and Shuang Ning to get ready and lead everyone to Lingfeng Town.
He planned to carry out the robbery in the middle of the transport convoy, because if he did it in the Emerald Forest, he was worried that the noise of the robbery would alert the Elf Queen, the extremely difficult big boss.
As Frost Condensation took off, the group slowly flew away, leaving behind only the abandoned Sunset Valley camp.
The group piloted their flying magical beasts, soaring at full speed in a straight line through the air. The strong air currents whirred across their faces, and in a flash, they arrived safely near Lingfeng Town, on the border of the Dante Kingdom.
Martin did not rush into the town, but carefully searched around. Finally, he found a very secluded valley and decided to set up camp there.
The camp was set up, and everyone was assigned their duties. Just as Martin was closely watching the surroundings, waiting for the transport team to appear, the communication crystal suddenly flickered.
Martin picked it up and saw that it was a message from Betan, informing him that all the ore in the mine had been mined out.
Martin pondered for a moment, then spoke sternly into the communication crystal, "Get rid of all the slaves. Afterwards, you will go to Lika and continue mining the magic crystal mine with him. Purchase new slaves there and increase mining efforts."
Betan and his companions replied that they understood, and then they rushed towards the territory of Count Lucy in the Central Realm, one after the other.
After finishing his business here, Martin quickly contacted the Beast Valley and issued an order through the communication crystal: "Everything remains the same. If you are short of magic crystals, go to the Morning Light Chamber of Commerce to get them."
After finishing his instructions, Martin put away the communication crystal and turned his attention back to monitoring the transport team, patiently waiting for the prey to appear.
