Immediately afterwards, Queen Catherine signed a blood pact with the leading robot.
The purpose of this blood contract is clear. If the Golden Legion fails to complete the mission, they will be bound by the contract and return to this place and continue to fall into deep sleep. The deadline is set at one week.
After reading the contents of the blood contract, the commander of the Golden Legion smiled slightly and did not take it to heart.
They are confident in their own abilities and believe that completing the task is a piece of cake.
However, the legion commander made a request: he hoped that Queen Catherine would provide enough divine power crystals to help them recover to their peak state.
Queen Catherine thought for a moment and rejected the request.
Not to mention that she didn't have that many divine power crystals, even if she did, she would never easily hand them over to the robots of the Golden Legion.
The legion commander didn't care too much when he saw the queen's refusal, because what he really coveted was the core of the secret realm - the energy provided here was purer than the crystal of divine power.
So the legion commander made this request.
When Queen Catherine heard this, her face suddenly turned very ugly.
She realized that the Legion Commander's previous request for the divine power crystal was just to bring out the real purpose of asking for the core of the secret realm.
After thinking for a long time, the Queen finally agreed, but put forward a condition: a portion of energy must be left to maintain the normal operation of the secret realm.
She also solemnly warned that if the Golden Legion failed to complete the mission, this place would become their burial place.
The leading robot immediately nodded in agreement. In his eyes, forces like the Dragon Spine "Kingdom" were nothing more than a piece of cake.
Even if there is a hidden secret, with the Golden Legion at its peak strength, it would be easy to destroy this country.
He then signed a blood pact with Queen Catherine.
When Queen Catherine saw that the contract was signed, she immediately turned around and left.
She first removed the divine shackles at the exit of the secret realm, then opened the exit and kept it open.
After that, she left the Jedi with her men. As for the goblin, Queen Catherine decided to set it free and no longer need to guard it here.
Upon hearing this, the goblin suppressed his inner joy and respectfully saluted Queen Catherine. Then he quickly created a crack in space, flashed into it, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Upon seeing this, Queen Catherine also left this desolate place.
At this moment in the Dragon's Back Empire, Martin was coaxing his son to sleep.
During this period, he finally put the empire's regulations on the right track, and he took the rare time to visit his son in Jovian's bedroom.
Looking at Martin teasing his son with a loving look on his face, Jovian felt warm in her heart and a happy smile on her face. She walked forward and stayed beside Martin. The whole scene was extremely warm.
Just then, a maid arrived to report that Lord Malcador requested an audience with His Majesty regarding an important matter.
After hearing this, Martin thought for a moment, then gently placed the child in Jovian's arms. He first kissed Jovian gently, then kissed the child on the face, then turned and walked out, with the maid following closely behind.
Arriving at the throne room, Martin found Malcador already waiting. This time, Martin did not approach the throne room and sit down. Instead, he walked with Malcador and talked with him.
Malcador followed His Majesty closely and said, "Your Majesty, after this period of operation, the Empire has begun to get back on track. However..."
Here Malcador paused.
Martin looked back at him, his eyes urging him to continue.
Malcador continued, "Your Majesty, the nobility of the Empire are now like parasites on the Empire, of no benefit at all. I believe..."
Martin raised his hand, stopping Malcador from continuing. The two walked in silence for a while longer, until they came to a garden.
After Martin told the maids and knights to leave, he found a place to sit down and gestured for Malcador to sit down as well.
Martin looked at the surrounding scenery, then slowly said, "Malcador, do you think this empire needs nobles?"
Malcador shook his head. Martin smiled faintly and continued, "Yes, the Empire today is like a newborn baby, infested with parasites. You are right to want to rid it of these parasites, but now is not the time."
"If we were to take action against those nobles right after the empire was established, even if there was just a hint of it, the entire empire would be plunged into chaos."
"Even with the Dragon Knights' strong suppression, it's difficult to prevent the situation from getting out of control. This matter is not what we should focus on at this stage, do you understand?"
Malcador immediately grasped Martin's intention. He had initially been eager to resolve the nobles' issue, but now realized he had been a bit too hasty and immediately expressed his understanding of His Majesty's considerations.
Afterwards, he reported the situation of each department to Martin in detail one by one.
Martin listened to Macador's report, finding it roughly consistent with what he knew, and nodded. The two of them continued their conversation until noon.
Seeing that it was already noon, Martin warmly invited Machado to have lunch with him.
After thinking for a moment, Malcador declined.
After all, he had other important matters to attend to at noon, and they had all been arranged.
After Martin learned the reason, he said, "Then come to the palace for lunch tomorrow at noon. Please arrange your time."
Macador had no choice but to nod to show that he understood.
Martin looked at Macador's expression and laughed in his heart. He couldn't help thinking: How many people are looking forward to having a meal with me, but this guy is still making excuses. I really want to kick him.
As Malcador left, Martin shook his head as he watched him leave, then went to Jovian's bedroom to have dinner with the mother and son.
In the following days, the situation seemed exceptionally peaceful, and there was no news of any disturbance from the northern continent.
This made Martin feel suspicious and he always felt that something was wrong.
Based on his intuition, he guessed that Queen Catherine of the Northern Continent must be planning something big, but he was unable to understand the mystery behind it at the moment.
Thanks to the good relationship established with Dragon Island, Martin's men were able to move freely in and out of the Northern Continent.
Taking this opportunity, they learned a lot about the Northern Continent.
It has to be said that Queen Catherine's experience is legendary. It is truly amazing that she ascended the throne of the Northern Continent Empire as a woman.
The overall strength of the Northern Continent is much stronger than that of the Western Continent. There are about thirty demigods in the open alone.
As for the Lower Gods, intelligence personnel had yet to uncover any definitive information. But Martin knew that with such a large number of demigods, there couldn't be no Lower Gods in charge.
Considering the rules set by the Continental Congress, Martin couldn't help but feel that the Continental Congress seemed to be intentionally helping him.
After all, with the power they possessed at the time, they were completely unable to resist the possible attacks from the Northern Continent.
Thinking of this, Martin looked up at the sky with a gloomy gaze, his heart full of doubts: "Why is this happening? Could it be... that I am the illegitimate child of someone in the Continental Congress who has been stranded outside?"
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Martin shook his head vigorously, thinking that this idea was too outrageous and terrible.
