Not long after, the two dragon knights came back with two corpses to report. The seven domains contributed seven high-level space rings, which increased Martin's energy to about 150 million.
This sudden assassination was resolved quietly and silently.
However, what Martin did not expect was that just half a month later, news came that the Domain Dragon Knight William and two legendary dragon knights, along with eight legions, had disappeared, and they were completely and literally missing.
When Martin first heard the news, he thought it was the intelligence department who was shirking their responsibilities.
But when he personally took out the communication crystal to contact the three dragon knights, he found that he could not get through.
According to the intelligence sent back earlier, there was no sign of large-scale conflict in the area, as if they had disappeared in an instant, and there was no trace of any remaining magic circle at the scene.
How is this possible?
Martin thought that the disappearance of eight legions might be barely understandable, but how could a domain dragon knight, such a powerful existence, disappear silently?
Afterwards, Martin decided to go there in person. He rode on Hefna, took Xingchen with him, opened a space crack, and rushed to the place where William and others disappeared.
After arriving at the destination, Martin looked around and saw that the situation was exactly the same as described in the intelligence, as if everything here had been wiped out neatly.
Martin explored carefully but found nothing, so he couldn't help but turn his eyes to the stars.
Xingchen closed his eyes and used his divine power to sense everything around him, and finally noticed a clue - there was a spatial dislocation here, which meant that they were most likely teleported away.
After hearing this, Martin looked at the empty space again and asked Xingchen, "Is there really anyone who can do this?"
Xingchen pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded and said, "It's certainly possible. I can do it, but I can't bring anyone with me. After all, crossing a space rift and traveling through space are two completely different concepts. But there's no need to overthink it; this matter is definitely related to the surrounding kingdoms."
After listening to Xingchen's analysis, Martin knew that she was absolutely right.
He couldn't help but wonder, could this be a method left behind by the Knight Empire?
In any case, we must investigate. If the same thing happens again, it will be too late to regret. After all, training a domain dragon knight requires a lot of energy.
So, Martin rode on the dragon and headed towards Dante's capital with the stars.
With the cover of the stars, they would hardly be noticed along the way.
The two of them successfully passed through the palaces of the royal palace and finally found King Dante in the garden.
At this time, the king was drinking alone with a sad look on his face.
Martin carefully looked around and after making sure that there was no one else around, he showed up.
King Dante saw someone sneaking in and was about to shout, but Martin slapped him to the ground. However, with the stars around, no one else could hear the sound.
After a "friendly" exchange - in fact, using powerful momentum to force King Dante to tell the truth, Martin finally learned how his dragon knight and legion disappeared.
A few days ago, a very beautiful woman found King Dante.
The woman said she could help him solve the current problem, but the prerequisite was that she needed a large number of humans.
At that time, William led the two dragon knights and they were unstoppable. The army of Dante Kingdom had almost no ability to resist.
The armies of other kings were also unable to resist the Domain Dragon Knights. The anxious King Dante asked for help from the Continental Parliament through the communication crystal left by his ancestors.
They were informed that powerful people from the domain were participating in this war, but all the information fell on deaf ears and no response was received.
In desperation, King Dante had to agree to the woman's proposal.
After sacrificing 300,000 people, the woman opened a teleportation channel and sent William and others along with the legion in, and then disappeared without a trace.
Afterwards, King Dante tried every possible way to find the woman, but found nothing.
Somehow, the sacrifice was known to the nobles in the country. They prepared to write a joint letter to arouse public indignation and demand an "explanation" from the king.
This series of misfortunes made King Dante very worried, and he could only hide in the garden and drink to relieve his sorrow.
After Martin learned the whole story, he threw King Dante into the garden.
After inquiring in detail about the location of the treasury and the traps set therein, he ended King Dante's life without hesitation.
Afterwards, Martin took Xingchen and Hefna straight to the national treasury and the king's inner treasury.
The two of them successfully dealt with the guards. Martin entered the treasury as if he was in an empty space. He put all the items in the treasury into the advanced space ring, and at the same time did not forget to use these items to recharge his system.
After collecting them, Martin asked Xingchen to use his ability to sense whether there was a hidden compartment. Xingchen did as he was told and indeed found a hidden compartment.
Walking into the compartment, there were some books and a set of seemingly plain armor.
Xingchen walked forward, picked up the armor, and said, "This is a set of armor worn by a demigod. Unfortunately, it is extremely damaged and will be difficult to repair."
Having said that, he handed the armor to Martin. Martin took the armor and carefully put it into the space ring, thinking that he would find a chance to repair it in the future.
Then he added the books to the collection.
Before collecting the books, Martin took a quick look and found that they were records of the Knight Empire period.
But this was obviously not the time to read, so he decided to study it carefully later.
Then, he put all the things in the compartment into the space ring and placed them separately.
Then they headed to the inner treasury. After looting it, Martin quickly left with Hefna and Xingchen.
Shortly after they left, a servant came to report to the king.
When he arrived at the garden, he was horrified to find that the king was dead, and he couldn't help but scream loudly.
With this shout, space cracks appeared out of thin air, and out walked the royal family of Dante Kingdom, each of them possessing legendary strength.
Seeing the king's miserable condition, several members of the royal family looked at each other. It was not difficult to see the unconcealable surprise and fear in each other's eyes.
They simply couldn't believe that someone could kill the king right under their noses.
One of the royal family members raised his hand and slammed the servant to death, then stopped the royal knights who had hurried over.
When the knights of the royal court saw the royal family members appear, they all saluted respectfully.
The royal family members made up a random excuse and sent the knights away.
The several royal family members in the garden knew that they had to stabilize the situation and use the king's suicide as an excuse to shut up the nobles.
