Chapter 772 A large group of air knights are attacking!
Gervis didn't dare to delay. He quickly closed the system panel and rushed out the door.
When he arrived outside the small building, the swift dragon bird had already swooped down and appeared in front of Gervis in a moment.
"Walk!"
Gervis rode on the Swift Dragon Bird, then rushed into the sky and headed towards the city wall.
"His Majesty!"
Just when Gervis was halfway through his flight on the Swift Dragon Bird, Ik came towards him on the Dragon Bird. Upon seeing him, he immediately approached him.
"What's going on? Are there any enemies attacking?"
Gervis was in the air at this time and saw that there were no enemies near the city.
"Your Majesty, Count Hayden and I will patrol the 30-mile area around the city every hour as per your instructions. Just now, when I was patrolling, I saw a large group of air knights flying in the distance."
Ike immediately reported the situation to Gervis.
"A large group of air knights? Which direction are they coming from?!"
When Gervis heard the news, his expression became serious.
If this group of air knights flew from the natives, then I'm afraid the natives will start a war, and it will be a bit difficult for Saint Ann City.
"Your Majesty came from behind us. Because they were all air knights, I didn't dare to get close. I only saw black dots and quickly came back to report the news!"
"Coming from the rear?"
Hearing this, Gervis heaved a sigh of relief. Those coming from the rear were not natives, so at least there wouldn't be many ground troops.
If they came from the natives, the large group of air knights would definitely be accompanied by a large number of ground troops. After all, the area on their side has been occupied by these invaders.
If the natives did not make any big moves, they would not gather the air knights and advance deep into the enemy territory.
"Go ahead and investigate to see which side the air knights belong to. Return immediately after you have found out clearly!"
Gervis immediately gave orders to Ike.
The reason why Ike didn't dare to get close before was not because he was afraid of death, but because his first priority was to bring back the news so that the city of St. Ann would be on guard.
Now that the news has been brought back, he can get closer and it won't be a problem even if he is chased by the other party.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Ike responded immediately, then increased the speed of the dragon bird and headed towards the south where Gervis and his companions had come from.
Crash!
"Your Majesty!"
"Grevith!"
When Gervase arrived at the city wall, Hayden and Gandalf were already waiting for him.
"Yes! Father, go and gather all the guards, follow the giant crocodile and wait inside the city gate!"
Gervis nodded and immediately made arrangements for Gandalf.
"Okay, Gervis!"
Gandalf didn't ask any more questions, and immediately began to gather the guards on the city wall according to Gervis's order! "Your Majesty, are you preparing to leave the city?"
After Gandalf left, Hayden asked Gervis.
"That's right! If I'm not mistaken, the people coming this time must be from the Golden Shield family! After all, if it were Edward and his people, they wouldn't send out such a large number of air forces."
"So, if these Golden Shield Family teams have no troops on the ground and only have knights in the air, then I will make sure they never return!"
Gervis kept looking towards the south. At this time, Gervis could vaguely see a large number of small dots in the sky coming towards this side.
"Hayden, take this potion and listen to my orders. Once I give the order, you will take this potion and then leave the city with my father and the guards."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
Hayden immediately took the medicine handed to him by Gervis.
This potion has a little bit of black kiwi added to it to enhance its strength.
Now Gervis himself is at the peak of the White Flag level. If he is not dealing with a strong opponent, it would be a waste to directly swallow a complete strength-enhancing fruit.
So this time he has to decide based on the strength of the enemy. If the other side does not have a strong man, then he will choose to take potions to increase his strength slightly.
"Um!"
After Hayden agreed, Gervis did not stay on the city wall, but flew directly into the sky on the Swift Dragon Bird.
Time flies, and soon two minutes have passed.
The black spot in the distant sky was now very close, and Ik was riding on the Swift Dragon Bird and was chased back by hundreds of air knights.
"Your Majesty, they should all be members of the Golden Shield Family. No troops were spotted on the road!"
Ike rushed to Gervis' side and reported immediately.
"Very good! Ike, go to the city wall and wait first!"
Without Ike's report, Gervis also saw the origin of this group of aerial knights.
There is a huge group of swift dragon bird squadrons, estimated to have hundreds of people. In the Holy Continent, except for the Golden Shield Family, no other holy city can have them.
This squadron of swift dragon birds accounts for at least one-third of the Golden Shield family's air force.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
…
"Since your Golden Shield family is so generous to deliver the goods to my door, I will accept it without hesitation!"
After Ik left, Gervis opened his system panel and looked at the swift dragon birds in the distance as if he had seen a treasure.
"I still have 328 energy points, which can only be exchanged for 32 purple kiwifruits! This squadron of dragon bird knights has about a hundred fast dragon birds, so I need to exchange at least 68 purple kiwifruits to eat them all!"
Gervis looked at his energy point count and quickly calculated in his mind.
"Now you can only exchange gold coins for energy points!"
1,000 gold coins can be exchanged for 1 energy point, 10 energy points require 10,000 gold coins, and 68 kiwis require 680,000 gold coins.
Once upon a time, Gervis thought that the hundreds of thousands of gold coins he earned from auctioning potions in the City of Hope would allow him to sit back and relax for several years, but he didn't expect that they would be so useless when he actually used them.
He auctioned the magic potion twice in the City of Hope, and received about 230,000 gold coins in the first auction.
The second time he took out a total of 12 magic potions, and the average selling price of each potion was basically 36,000 gold coins. In the end, the auction proceeds and the fixed amount paid by Edward added up to a total of less than 400,000 gold coins.
The gold coins he earned from these two potion auctions totaled 600,000 gold coins.
In addition, the allies of the Golden Shield Family were defeated in the City of Hope Arena, and those city lords were captured and only regained their freedom after paying ransom.
Edward gave 150,000 gold coins from the ransom to Gervase.
In this way, the total amount of gold coins that Gervis earned in the City of Hope was as high as 750,000.
Although a lot of money has been spent during this period, there are still 700,000 gold coins now!
"After twenty years of hard work, now we are back to square one!"
Gervis muttered to himself, but finally clicked the redemption button.
Thanks to "Lonely, Stranded Time, Flowing", and "Do You Remember the Name?" for the tips!!!
