Eli wore a felt shawl, and a noble rapier hung at his right hip. His attendants, seeing the surging crowd, raised their shields like an iron wall, keeping them all outside.
"Thump... thump..."
One after another, the sound of boats falling into the water echoed. Eli knelt on one knee, and as the boat started moving, he kissed Joanna's arm and said respectfully:
"Please go and rest inside the ship first. We will arrive in Qiweier City in less than a day... At that time, you will need to lead everyone to make new decisions."
In any case, Joanna is a legitimate countess.
"kindness……"
Joanna, who had narrowly escaped death, returned to her cabin, picked up a quill pen, and began to write a letter by hand… “Respected Lord of Canaan, Lord Su Yue… The Rivers family is now in bloodshed and chaos. I need your help, and with your influence, to reclaim our lost territory…”
Just then, the ship's side lurched, and a feeling of dizziness washed over me.
Joanna stood up and asked, "What's wrong?"
"My lord, good news! Good news!!!"
"Good news?"
The waitress, carrying a plate full of sardines, lemons, and rose jam, excitedly announced, "The Lord of Canaan has repelled the attack of the heretical rebel leader Webo Jan Dragimier and won a great victory. The news has already spread throughout the surrounding areas."
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
"Canaan! Canaan! Canaan!?"
What's that sound outside?
Joanna listened in surprise to the excited shouts coming from the deck and not far away.
The female attendant said, "They are spontaneously cheering for Canaan; they all want to join the Canaanite kingdom!"
Joanna certainly knew what a victory for Canaanite territory meant!
This means that Qiweier City is not in danger of being attacked by the Empire in the short term! They were all merchants and members of the Chamber of Commerce who were heading to Qiweier City. How could they not be happy to hear this news?
"Please have dinner with me!"
"kindness."
The silver cutlery, plates, and white tablecloth were clearly intended for the nobility.
Joanna continued to write to Su Yue.
He added:
"I heard the news of your great victory on July 12th in the cabin, defeating the heretics of the Empire. How I should congratulate you! Your command of the territory and your tactical ability should be the foundation for us to reclaim the future territories of the Empire."
I can't wait to meet you.
"—Your dear friend, Joanna!"
The maid glanced at the stunningly beautiful countess, who looked so young yet carried such a heavy burden… Count Bartogol Rivers had died suddenly as a father… The maid believed that if she had been the one to hear the news, he would not have been able to bear it.
"Miss, the wine is here."
"Oh, okay, thank you."
Before the ink had dried, Countess Joanna Rivers poured the liquid into a crystal glass, gazing enigmatically at the porthole... That was the location of the Chivel territory, and also the location of Canaan.
...
"Sixth-tier Vanguard Squires...more than a hundred!?"
Su Yue watched in shock as Webo Jan Dragimi's right-wing forces frantically broke through his territory and retreated like dragons...
Should we keep him?
Europa asked.
Su Yue laughed and said, "It's not necessary for now. It doesn't matter if he runs away; it's just the end of one battle."
He looked at the lord's log.
"Congratulations on achieving an unprecedented and glorious victory, defeating Legions (countless): +Imperial rebel forces. You have obtained: 460,000 gold coins, 150,000 wood, 140,000 herbs, 3,201 Tier 1 armor pieces, 1,420 Tier 2 armor pieces, 456 Tier 3 armor pieces, 511 Tier 4 armor pieces... You have obtained 1 Imperial Lord's Treasure (unidentified)."
"You have gained x Lord Experience!"
"Your level has been promoted to Level 5! You have gained 5 free attribute points."
Server-wide announcement: "Player Su Yue has defeated Legions (countless): +Barto Empire heretical rebels, gained 8 free attribute points, and received 2 random blueprints as a reward."
The players were completely dumbfounded, while the Chinese players collectively erupted in cheers: "Holy crap!?! No, bro, don't you sleep at night?"
"???"
"Damn it, a night battle?!"
Zhou Zhuo was shocked:
"Ahhhh I leveled up... Holy crap, did the pro trigger the server-wide announcement again?"
He was immersed in the joy of the battle's gains, and he had also captured a considerable amount of spoils from the enemy empire. It was probably only as much as Su Yue's, but for these players in the fourth day (early morning) of the Turin world.
Even with the impending battle between Su and Yue, they felt they had made a fortune.
Sun Zhao: "Did the big shot trigger the server-wide broadcast again?"
"That's incredible!"
Janji: "This Canaan is already more powerful than the NPC forces. Wow, we've chosen the right people to follow."
Bai Yue excitedly sent a message in the chat: "This is awesome! I got artillery experience points! I got so much firing experience points..."
"Artillery experience? What artillery experience?"
Bai Yue said, "It wasn't artillery experience, I misspoke, it was repair experience! Repair experience!! I've gotten faster at fixing things!"
"???"
That's right. Some talents require experience to improve. For example, with his B-level repair talent, his efficiency will also increase as he gains more repair experience.
"Holy crap, this actually works?"
"You have unlimited potential."
"Big boss, could you spare me 2 free attribute points? I don't need more, just 2 points is enough!" Bai Yue joked, though he knew of course that this wouldn't work.
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and go back to sleep... I'm so sleepy, damn it, I've been up all night."
In utter shock, Elisa triggered the server-wide broadcast again after Su Yue, and was about to go find Su Yue when she unexpectedly encountered Gu Yu on the way!
'Two of those bitches.'
Neither of them had any affection for the other, but one was a pure and beautiful goddess in white, a white moonlight.
Another is a top socialite who seduces countless top players in the Dragon Kingdom guild, making them want to give her their hearts, livers, spleens, stomachs, and kidneys...
The incredibly alluring Elie laughed, "You damned bastard..."
"You idiot."
Just as the two women were about to fight, the Canaanite troops were also on their way back... "It's only been four days, he truly is the man I chose..."
Elisa sighed. She was really tired. In the bottom right corner of her friend messages, there were more than a dozen guild leaders fawning over her... After learning that Elisa was now following Su Yue, the number one big shot in the world, they were filled with envy, jealousy and despair.
Elisa even went so far as to describe, with feigned sadness, the scene of her being 'forced' to date Su Yue, claiming that everything was against her will and that she was only forced by circumstances to accompany Su Yue... This immediately caused a frenzy and adoration among those sycophants.
They believed that Elie was like Marguerite from "La Dame aux Camélias," and that her companionship with "Duke K" was entirely against her will... As a result, they gave Elie nearly 200,000 gold coins!!
That's a whopping 200,000+ gold coins...
Elie then gave the 200,000 gold coins to Su Yue.
"Elise is transferring 200,000 gold coins to you. Do you accept?"
"???"
"Who's ever heard of making money while picking up girls? Goodness, how many simps must be giving her money?" The 200,000 gold coins on the fourth day, although not as valuable as the 10,000 gold coins on the first day,... the resources that can be exchanged are about the same.
This shows that Eliz's devoted followers are truly crazy about her and would die for her!
Su Yue laughed as he watched his Europa subordinates clean up the mess left by the battle, and gazed at the fleeing Imperial rebel lord, Webo Jan Dragimier.
"Your lord level has been promoted to lv.5. Please select a new lord skill."
Su Yue was filled with anticipation: "Give me an intermediate pathfinding spell!! Or an advanced ballistics spell, please."
"Defense: Increases the unit's melee and ranged defense by 10%".
"Luck: Increases the unit's luck by 1 point. Gives the unit a chance to deal double damage."
"Scouting: Increases the hero's vision range by 1 tile."
"wipe!"
"Three beginner levels..."
Su Yue was speechless and directly chose the defensive spell!
This item increases defense by 10% in both melee and ranged combat, which will likely have a very significant impact on the Su-Yue campaign.
"It's a pity I couldn't find the intermediate pathfinding spell, otherwise the attack on the dwarven northern fortress would have been a sure thing!"
Su Yue suddenly looked at the information that appeared in the lord's log.
Lord's Log: "Your subordinate Griffin troops have acquired the treasure of Imperial rebel Isaiah Ethan, gaining: 1.46 million gold coins!"
"Ha ha!"
After Su Yue leveled up, his free attribute points returned to 21. With the server-wide broadcast of +8 and the +5 from the level up, he can now continue to improve his strength.
But just as he was about to continue upgrading...
Ragnar delivered a letter, the misty ripples dissipating as Su Yue took it:
"Joanna's?"
"Yes, my lord, this Lady Joanna will arrive at our Canaan's Barayamakan mudflats tomorrow."
"Oh? Let me see."
Su Yue frowned as he looked at a letter that had just been written not long ago...
"The Barto rebels have a business relationship with the High Elves?!"
"Then, isn't it possible that something dangerous might happen in Qiweier City?"
Lord's Log: "Your troops have incorporated the rebel forces, and some Imperial rebels have surrendered to you. You have gained 36 Tier 5 Reik Imperial Guards, 1140 Tier 2 Free Militia, 432 Tier 4 Hawk Territory Longbow Riflemen, and 144 Imperial Knights. You have also captured 6 Imperial Chariots."
"??? Imperial Chariot?"
"The shortcomings of the ranged units have also been addressed. The Tier 4 ranged Imperial Hawke's Longbow Riflemen are incredibly powerful, causing my troops to suffer heavy casualties."
Su Yue now realizes that he has lost nearly 700+ troops, but the replacement number is close to 2400+, which means that the number of troops in his territory has now exceeded 5000+!
"Holy crap...the more we fight, the more there are! Let me check the military budget!"
"..."
Su Yue's face turned green when he saw the military budget!
"Jin Xiuer!!"
"What's wrong, sir? I'm repairing Dragon Harbor..."
Kim Soo-ah's face showed some signs of soot, but she was still light, beautiful, and a graceful lady.
"Build a Level 5 Council quickly, I can't hold on any longer."
"What is it, sir?"
"Military spending, military spending is too much!!"
With his 5,000 troops, plus the 2,400+ elite imperial soldiers who surrendered, his weekly military expenses now reach over 700,000 gold coins, and his monthly military expenses are a whopping 2.8 million gold coins!
"These Imperial soldiers, are they all fucking lords? I absolutely have to find a special NPC to reduce their military spending..."
