Just as Eric and the other two finished communicating with Martin, Mander arrived at the battlefield riding a giant dragon with great momentum.
When everyone present saw Mander return, they instantly realized that the situation was clear and victory was in sight for Mander's side. Suddenly, cheers surged from every corner of the battlefield like a tide.
Looking at the Dante Kingdom's legions, everyone's faces were ashen. They knew that without the powerful leader, they were like lambs to the slaughter, powerless.
However, Mander wouldn't give them a moment to think. He summoned his legendary power, letting his voice echo clearly throughout the battlefield: "Speed up, attack with all your might!"
Upon hearing Mander's command, the legion attacking the city seemed to be injected with a shot of adrenaline in an instant. Their morale was greatly boosted, and they rushed forward roaring like crazy.
At the same time, the magic crystal cannons on the city walls fired in unison, trying to make a final struggle.
Seeing this, Mander rode the dragon without hesitation and blocked the fierce volley with his own strength.
The powerful impact caused the dragon to tremble slightly, but it still hung steadily in the air.
Immediately afterwards, the giant dragon under Mander let out an earth-shaking roar, swooped down suddenly, and instantly destroyed all the magic crystal cannons.
It is worth mentioning that the dragon cleverly controlled its power and did not cause too much damage to the level. It is obvious that Mander had other plans.
In the following battle, due to the lack of the bombardment of the magic crystal cannons and the low morale of the Dante Kingdom Legion, which was like a pile of loose sand, the three legions responsible for the main attack were able to successfully enter the level.
Seeing this, Mander made a prompt decision and sent the remaining five legions forward.
Relying on the absolute advantage in numbers, after a fierce battle, they finally successfully captured this level in the early morning of the next day.
As for the plundered wealth, it was still divided into 90% and 100% according to the previous rules.
At this moment, in Dante's Palace, the five elders were enjoying their leisure time leisurely.
The musicians played pleasant music, the dancers danced gracefully, and he took a sip of red wine from time to time and ate a piece of tender monster meat. He looked so comfortable.
At this moment, the communication crystal he placed aside suddenly lit up.
The fifth elder casually answered the call, and instantly a burst of angry rebukes came from it: "You idiot! Who allowed you to cause trouble for Martin White?"
"Go ahead and look for them, but they actually killed them. Even the demigod they sent was killed by the dragon knight. Even if you want revenge, you should at least understand the enemy's strength first!"
"President, what did you say? They are all dead?" The fifth elder asked in shock upon hearing this.
Vice President Percy responded unhappily, "What do you think?"
The Fifth Elder was immediately panicked. After all, he himself had only just attained divinity and hadn't yet ignited the divine fire to achieve demigodhood.
Now that all the demigods he sent out are dead, how can he remain calm?
He was extremely anxious and said to the communication crystal in a panic, "President, you have to save me!"
The Vice President, who was far away in Sky City, heard the voice coming over the communication line and helplessly held his forehead. He cursed the Fifth Elder for being stupid, but he still forced himself to explain patiently, "If they really wanted to kill you, they wouldn't have waited until now. Do you know how many demigods they have over there?"
"Three demigod dragon knights! This is the result of the inspection in the hall. Come back here immediately. Don't worry about other things. Come back and accept the punishment."
After hearing this, the fifth elder nodded hurriedly, completely ignoring King Dante's astonished look, raised his hand to create a crack in space, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Only King Dante was left with a look of disbelief on his face, and the huge palace hall fell into silence.
On this side, after Mander had organized the legions in an orderly manner, he arranged for the injured knights and magicians to stay at the checkpoints, and then he personally led the two newly recruited legions, together with the original seven legions, a total of nine legions, and marched towards Dante's capital.
Along the way, continuing with their previous practices, the Legion plundered wealth everywhere, 90% of which belonged to Mander, and the remaining 10% was divided among the seven Legions.
However, the two newly joined legions were not used to this approach. After all, they came from the royal territory and their family members were all there. This practice caused a lot of conflicts.
In the end, Mander personally stepped in to stop it and made it clear in the military rules that the family property of the legion members should not be robbed. The situation then improved slightly.
But even so, friction still occurs from time to time. Fortunately, there are nine legion commanders to control the situation, and the situation is relatively stable.
In this way, after two months of marching, the army finally arrived at the royal capital.
At this time, the number of legions under Mander's command had expanded to sixteen.
As the number of people increased, various problems arose, and deserters appeared every day.
Mander summoned the sixteen legion commanders and issued a stern warning: "If there is another deserter next time, the knight squad he belongs to will serve as the vanguard of the attack and plunder."
"If even one small unit of knights deserts, the entire order will be assigned as the vanguard. Do you understand?"
The sixteen legion commanders responded in unison, expressing their understanding. Only then did Mander let them withdraw.
After the legion commanders left, Mander took out the communication crystal and dialed the number. The call was quickly connected, and Martin's voice came over: "Mander, where are we now?"
Mander responded respectfully, "Your Majesty, I have arrived at the Dante capital with my army and would like to report the current situation to you. The number of legions has now reached sixteen, but the quality of the personnel is uneven. Furthermore, after four months of plundering, the wealth we have obtained is worth approximately fifty million gold coins."
Martin was quite satisfied with Mander's performance over the past few months. After a few words of encouragement, he said seriously, "It's very likely that there are magical props of mass destruction deployed in Dante's capital. I've arranged for Lorga to investigate. You can only take action after he sends you a message. Do you understand?"
Mander nodded, indicating that he understood. After a few more words, he hung up.
In the bedroom, Reina saw Martin hang up the phone, walked over, and gently lay in his arms, and the two of them cuddled together intimately.
At this moment, a knight came to report that a special envoy wanted to see His Majesty.
Martin guessed that the Continental Congress must have decided on the punishment for the five elders.
So he gently touched Reina's hair, then stood up and walked out of the palace.
He walked in front, and the knight who came to report followed behind him, reporting the situation in detail as he walked.
When they were almost at the throne room, Martin signaled the knight to step back, and the knight bowed respectfully before retreating.
Martin walked into the throne room and saw the envoy of the Continental Congress at a glance. He looked calm and walked straight to the throne and sat down steadily.
