All the annoying guys left, taking away the atmosphere of the old times.

Some of the remaining guys will leave, and some will become knights of the Pompeii family.

Luther raised his head and looked at Bixing, Alton, the most powerful vassal of the Smith family in the past and a resolute knight.

At this moment, his face was pale and hesitant.

As a modern-day Knight of Alton, he is responsible for the entire family, so he stands here instead of leaving.

The Smith era was over, and Knight Alton no longer had any illusions. Fortunately, Alton had no idea where the Alton family would go next.

"Since I am the governor, everything in Silver Wing City will be under my rule, so I now declare that your territory will be taken away and returned to the governor's rule. But I will compensate you."

Luther read out the order he had decided before, and then said to the knights present: "There are only two options, take the money and leave, or take the money and continue to work for me. I will pay you a fair salary to solve your livelihood problems."

The knights were in a commotion, their faces paler than before, as white as paper. A contemporary knight from the lord's family stood up, looking a little weak, and said to Luther: "Governor, this is not in compliance with the laws of the kingdom."

"Now I am the law here, what are you going to do?" Luther asked.

"I choose the third way." Fortunately, Alton suddenly raised his head and said, this determined and powerful knight stood up.

"Oh." Luther showed a little interest.

"I, Bixing Alton, am a senior official of the extinct Smith family. I am deeply ashamed for not being able to protect my master's family. I will not accept your 30,000 gold coins. I will only leave with my family's property and dignity."

Fortunately, Alton bowed to Luther, then took steady steps and strode away.

This powerful knight has made up his mind and is so decisive.

Luther could not help but be moved. He stood up slightly, bowed to Bixing and Alton's departing backs, and said, "I respect you, Knight Alton."

However, it was extremely rare to find a knight lord as strong-willed as Bixing and Alton. At least among the former vassals of the Smith family present, there was no other such person.

Some chose to leave, some chose to stay. But no matter what, they all accepted the gold coins given by Luther.

Three thousand gold coins for a small territory and thirty thousand gold coins for a large territory.

Luther purchased all the land in the Silver Wing Territory and brought it under the rule of the Silver Wing Governor.

Moreover, Luther also surrendered a large number of knights who seemed unreliable at the moment and made them the guard knights of the Silver Wing Territory.

Bixing Alton left, but he took only some members of the Alton family with him.

The Alton family, which had lost its territory, no longer had any modern knights. The Alton family collapsed immediately, and its members scattered, although some of them stayed in the Silver Wing Territory.

The same goes for other vassal families.

As for how many knights can stay, that depends on the final statistics. Luther immediately announced in public that Rebecca and Jintren would be the Silver Wing Knight Commanders, and Oreo Williams would be the Silver Wing Mayor.

We will strengthen the territory's defense, restore production and commercial activities in an orderly manner according to the plan.

Cooperate with General Thor of the Mountains and Pompey to defend six territories.

I am coming.

I sat on the throne.

I ruled the kingdom.

That's all.

After Luther assigned the tasks, a large number of officials and knights left, leaving only the basic guard knights, guards, and former male and female servants of the Smith family in the castle.

"You look so beautiful, do you want a drink?"

Miss Alice came down from upstairs, swaying with great charm, holding a bottle of wine and two glasses in her hands.

Before that, Luther had the knights search the castle, including the secret room, to make sure that only ordinary servants and guards were left in the castle.

But the knights obviously couldn't do anything to the baron's eldest daughter.

Miss Alice poured the wine and handed the glass to Luther without waiting for his answer. Luther took a small sip and asked, "Aren't you also of this family's bloodline? Are you not sad at all that the Smith family is extinct?"

“There are so many people who are related to the Smith family by blood. Do we have to be sad together?” Miss Alice rolled her eyes.

She is still so beautiful even when she rolls her eyes.

Then she chose the chair closest to her and sat down, then looked Luther up and down as if she was looking at some kind of commodity.

Luther shuddered and asked warily, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"When I first came into contact with you, I knew you had ambition and the ability to develop a city, so I invested in Pompeii and your hot spring resort. But I didn't expect you to acquire the city in this way."

A hint of emotion appeared on Miss Alice's beautiful face, which was always unpredictable.

This is absolutely from the heart.

Thinking back to the day when she saw Luther on Eagle Mountain, the boy looked so embarrassed.

Later, after getting to know him, I felt that this guy had great potential.

So I invested.

But at that time I thought that this thing just changed from bronze to silver. Now I see that it is gold of the highest quality.

The fact that the Pompeii family could reach this point was definitely beyond her expectations, as well as the expectations of many people.

"I didn't expect that myself." Luther shrugged, and then said with emotion: "The threat from the New Party has caused chaos in the order of the nobles, so I am where I am now."

"So you have to thank the New Party." Miss Alice shrugged her shoulders in an unbelievable manner, then took a sip of red wine and said, "But because of this, I plan to leave the Southern Territory and head to the Golden City."

"Why?" Luther was a little confused for a moment.

"The New Party is too powerful, and the Pompeii family is too weak. I plan to seek refuge in the Golden City. I sincerely wish you to survive this storm. When the time comes, I will come back and continue to invest in your Pompeii Metropolis."

Miss Alice stood up and patted Luther's left shoulder, as if to say.

My friend, you try your best first, I will run first.

Once you get through this storm, we'll make a fortune together.

But Miss Alice's expression suddenly froze because she noticed the cute little eagle on Luther's right shoulder.

"Why does this eagle look familiar?" Miss Alice asked in surprise, swallowing her saliva in an ungracious manner.

Luther touched the Eagle King carefully, and then said, "Your acquaintance is here to see you. Your Excellency, the Eagle King."

Miss Alice collapsed.
