After making the decision, Martin quickly took out the communication crystal and issued an order to the dragon knight Alton, asking him to lead all dark creatures to the Lake of Hestia in the Middle Realm, and station there on standby, awaiting further instructions.
After receiving the order, Alton immediately discussed the direction of attack with several other dragon knights, and then led all the dark creatures to evacuate the southern border and head towards the central border.
Such a large number of dark creatures pouring into the Central Realm naturally caused quite a stir and soon attracted the attention of Duke Merlin and Duke Zhanqi.
When the minor nobles informed Duke Merlin of the detailed information, her first reaction was that Martin was planning to do something big. After all, Martin had just asked her about the secret realm of sacrifice.
She acted decisively and immediately used the communication crystal to appease all the nobles in the Central Territory, telling them not to worry and to let this group of dark creatures pass.
In fact, even if Duke Merlin had not sent this communication, no noble would have dared to stop it.
After all, in the Kingdom of Charlemagne, the only one who possessed dragon knights and controlled so many enslaved dark creatures was Grand Duke Martin of the West.
During the journey, Alton and his party did not encounter any forces that dared to provoke them, and they arrived at the Lake of Hestia that Martin mentioned without any obstacles.
After Alton looked around, he arranged for the dark creatures to set up camp by the lake.
Thanks to their quick action, they arrived at their destination several days earlier than expected.
During this time, Martin has been working hard to collect the materials needed for "replacement".
The other materials are relatively easy to find, but there are two that are extremely tricky and difficult to obtain.
One of them is an elf with the royal blood of ancient elves, and the other is the Heart of the Secret Realm, which is used to protect the elves who want to enter the secret realm.
Martin searched almost the entire Kingdom of Charlemagne, but still did not get any related clues.
Thinking of this, Martin felt that perhaps he could turn his attention outside the kingdom and try to search in a wider area.
However, the dilemma Martin faced was that his intelligence organization had not yet fully covered the entire kingdom and had only just been set up in the royal territory, not to mention outside the kingdom.
In desperation, he could only turn to the Shadow Intelligence Guild for help again.
Martin couldn't help but wonder if the old man, the president of the Shadow Intelligence Guild, deliberately gave those two methods, one to destroy the sacrificial array, and the other to replace the sacrificial object. Anyone with a little bit of brains would definitely choose the replacement method.
With a hint of frustration, Martin picked up the communication crystal and dialed. Soon, the call was connected, and Xiaoyi's clear voice came through: "Grand Duke Martin, do you need any information on the Heart of the Secret Realm?"
Martin just said "hmm" lightly, feeling really unhappy. Although he felt like he was being plotted against, after all, he chose the method himself and could not blame others.
Xiaoyi then directly sent the information over and said, "This information is worth five million. Also, the president asked me to ask you, is this related to angels or elves? If it's about elves, I have prepared information for you, also worth five million."
Martin said "hmm" again in response.
Seeing this, Xiaoyi couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. Then she quickly sent the message to Martin and hung up the call.
In a luxuriously decorated hall, Xiaoyi said to the president with a sullen look on her face, "Father, I really don't understand why you care so much about Martin White. You even want to marry me to him, but I don't agree. I want to make my own decisions about my marriage."
The president looked at his daughter's shrewd appearance and gave a helpless smile. He then patiently explained, "I've gathered a lot of intelligence on him and discovered some very strange phenomena. Every once in a while, the strength of those around him suddenly increases, and it's not with the help of potions."
"You know, when you break through with potions, your strength will be unstable for a while. Only a direct breakthrough will avoid this. However, what's strange is that he seems to need a large amount of ore. I still can't figure out what he wants this ore for."
"I even asked a fortune teller to do a divination for him before, but wow, the fortune teller was directly crushed to death by the future dragon knight across time and space."
After hearing what his father said, Xiaoyi couldn't help but become curious.
After receiving these two pieces of information, Martin studied them carefully. It turned out that the heart of the secret realm was in the Kingdom of Raging Waves, a country on the sea, adjacent to the Kingdom of Dante.
The Royal Auction House in the capital of the Kingdom of Nutao will soon auction a heart of secret realm, which comes from the secret realm of the mermaid.
For unknown reasons, the Mermaid Secret Realm is now in ruins and can no longer provide a normal living environment for the mermaids. Therefore, the Mermaid King of the Coral Kingdom commissioned the Raging Waves Kingdom to help auction the Heart of the Secret Realm, and the auction will be held in two months.
Another piece of intelligence shows that in the Moonlight Star Feather Forest, a newborn elf has experienced atavism, and its blood concentration is extremely high, almost comparable to the ancient elven royal bloodline.
Martin couldn't help but feel a headache after reading these two pieces of information. Going to the Kingdom of Raging Waves to bid for the Secret Realm Heart would definitely require a lot of money.
However, it is not easy to obtain that elf. The Moonlit Star Feather Forest is the elves' base camp, and there is also the Tree of Life whose power is unknown. It is very dangerous. It can be said that one will cost money and the other will cost life.
Martin thought to himself, "I don't want to give the money, but I want the goods."
In this case, it seems that the only option left is to rob. First, attack the Kingdom of Raging Tide and seize the Heart of the Secret Realm, then go to the Moonlit Star Feather Forest and try to lure the elf girl.
Well, it’s decided.
Thinking of this, Martin immediately called Eric and Shuang Ning and ordered them seriously, "You two must go quickly and come back quickly. Grab the Heart of the Secret Realm directly. You absolutely can't do it by spending money."
Eric responded, took the map from Martin, and then he and Shuang Ning opened a space crack and prepared to step into it.
Before leaving, Martin reminded them worriedly: "After you succeed, take a detour outside."
Eric nodded in understanding, and then disappeared into the space crack with Shuang Ning.
