Seeing this, Avril had an idea and began to think about recruiting these two Warcraft Knights.
Then, she turned around and signaled the few sky fighters beside her to go and stop the Knights and order them to stay on standby.
The subsequent progress was quite smooth. Under the powerful deterrent force of several sky fighters, Avril successfully signed slave contracts with the two Warcraft Knights.
After the recruitment was completed, Avril ordered them to be stationed at the gate of the palace.
After everything was arranged, she turned and walked towards the palace to prepare to negotiate with King Charlemagne.
At the border of the Kingdom of Charlemagne, the Xingyao Holy Nation suddenly stopped its aggressive attack and did not choose to advance further.
Instead, they decided on a more ambitious plan and sent envoys to several other kingdoms.
It is obvious that the Xingyao Holy Nation is no longer satisfied with small-scale conflicts, but is trying to divide the Kingdom of Charlemagne in one go.
Just as the envoys of the Holy Land of Stars were setting off, the Seventh and Eighth Royal Legions, which King Charlemagne had carefully deployed earlier, were quietly taking action.
They cleverly went around to the side and rear of the Xingyao Holy Nation army.
When everything was ready, there was a loud bang in the night sky, and a huge magic firework suddenly rose up. The brilliant light was particularly eye-catching in the dark night, as if it was a signal to launch an attack.
At the same time, the evacuating Royal Fourth Army quickly turned around and launched a fierce attack on the Xingyao Holy Nation's army. For a moment, the shouts of killing and the roar of magic intertwined.
As time slowly passed, the night gradually faded away, and the dawn of the morning shone on the battlefield.
After a night of fierce fighting, the army of the Kingdom of Charlemagne finally succeeded in destroying the Fourth and Fifth Royal Legions of the Holy Land of Stars.
At this point, this local battle has achieved a phased victory.
After the war, the Eighth Corps quickly returned to the border area where it was originally stationed, leaving the Fourth Corps and the Eighth Corps to continue guarding the border.
They were on high alert, always vigilant against a possible counterattack from Xingyao Shengbang.
Martin had successfully sent the rest of the people back to their respective territories, and then he returned to Yulong City.
As soon as he returned to the castle, he took everyone and Yoder and Roland, who had been called over temporarily, and went straight to the study.
At this moment, Martin couldn't wait to start counting the gains of this operation.
The first thing that caught his eye was the energy value, which was as high as 22 million energies.
Martin estimated that if all the taxes were included, it would be around 50 million.
Although he did not get all the taxes, he was still quite satisfied with the gains.
Then, he took out a high-level space ring that Eric gave him.
So, everyone began to sort the items in the ring one by one in an orderly manner.
This work lasted for two full hours. After the sorting was completed, Martin used all the mineral items to recharge the system.
Afterwards, he took out five million gold coins from the more than ten million and handed them to Roland, saying, "Roland, you don't have to be so restrained anymore. Go ahead and vigorously develop various businesses."
As for the various other items, Martin carefully put them into different space rings.
He planned to give these items to his family, as well as Roland, Yoder, Betan and others, as New Year gifts for everyone.
Martin distributed high-level space rings to everyone present, and instantly, everyone's face broke into a bright smile.
After the distribution was completed, Martin called out to the door, and a maid walked into the study lightly upon hearing the sound.
Martin smiled and handed her six space rings, saying, "Give these to Lilith, the housekeeper, and your sisters."
The maid's eyes were full of surprise. She saluted Martin happily and then walked out briskly.
Afterwards, Martin took out nine high-level space rings and handed them to Eric, saying seriously, "Go quickly and come back soon."
Eric took the ring and without any delay, he flashed into the space crack and walked in. Not long after, Eric returned.
However, he was still holding a high-level space ring in his hand. Martin looked puzzled and asked the reason.
Eric explained that it was his second sister Belin who asked him to bring it back to Martin.
Hearing this, Martin was slightly stunned, silent for a moment, and then slowly reached out to take the ring.
Then, he let Yoder and Roland go about their own business.
[Host: Martin]
【System level: Level 2】
[Current Level: Bronze Knight]
[Sworn Guards: 7,503]
[Contracted Dragons: 3, Dragonmen: 36]
Energy Reserve: 29,354,120
Martin stared at the energy numbers displayed on the system and had an idea in his mind. He planned to promote Betan and Fenglong to the legendary level.
Immediately, he ordered Eric and other legendary strongmen to take himself and the dragon knight Betan to the place where someone had successfully broken through before.
After arriving at the destination, as 10 million energies disappeared like flowing water, strange light appeared around Betan and Fenglong, and their promotion journey officially began.
Martin solemnly instructed Eric and Shuang Ning to protect them and ensure their successful breakthrough, and then asked Hefna to use magic to create a space crack and take him back to the castle.
In the royal capital, residents and nobles who had survived the catastrophe appeared on the streets one after another.
Although they did not know what happened last night, the slight signs of aging in their bodies made them very angry towards the Charlemagne royal family, but it was of no avail.
Just when everyone was at a loss, several knights rode their horses through the streets, shouting orders.
After hearing the order, the crowd began to move reluctantly, cleaning up the damaged houses and buildings, and collecting the bodies on the streets.
Those buildings in the city that survived the disaster, such as several academies, the Mage Guild, the Mercenary Guild, etc., also donated money and manpower to help the Charlemagne royal family rebuild the capital and maintain order.
The reason for all this was the agreement that King Charlemagne had previously reached with them.
At this time, in the study in the palace, King Charlemagne had a gloomy face and stared at Avril with anger. The atmosphere was tense, as if a fierce conflict would break out in the next second.
