Chapter 0281: Such a Grand Dukeship (Fifth Update)
[There will be a more, thank you for the monthly ticket voted by the 'fusion yourself' brother......]
"What? Duchy of Lionheart! ”
"What glory is this?"
"Unbelievable!"
Suddenly, the nobles below who were calm and calm were unable to maintain their calm, this is a big pie, it fell on Richard, and now that the Lionheart Knights of the Dominion of Bit have been lost, and the wealth left by the Gray War Saint has been squandered by Richard, others will naturally not be as respectful as before.

Valentine said in a deep voice:
"Silence!"
The scene was silent, and then, more than a dozen city lords and lords stood up and asked:
"Your Excellency, I don't know if the newly built Duchy of Lionheart will maintain its current scope or expand to the default size of the principality!"
"Yes! If the original scope is maintained, then, in fact, we can also accept it, nothing more than adding a grand duke in the future. ”
"Yes, but if the Duchy of Lionheart wants to expand on the basis of the Dominion of Bits, please forgive us for not being able to accompany us!"
……
Link smiled knowingly, these city lords and lords are all cities bordering the Bits Domain, and there are many powerful factions in the Stein Kingdom and the Entos Kingdom, if it is just a big duke, then everyone will definitely not mind a little.
Even if the Lionheart Knights are lost, the prestige created by the Gray War Saint back then will still make them fearful.
The most feared is that the Temple of Light supports the expansion of the Duchy of Lionheart, which means war, compared to the city lords of the two kingdoms, in fact, the Dominion of Butler and Ward, which border the Dominion of Bits, is the most worried, after all, the decisive battle of the undead has just been held, and the Knights of Lionheart have lost everything, so why don't they suffer heavy losses?
Valentine raised his hands and said in a deep voice:
"Silence!"
Then, he looked around at the nobles present, and then he spoke:
"Who told you that this time the Lionheart Principality will maintain its current scope, or expand to the surrounding cities and territories. We are all lambs of light, eternal and above, and if we do this, we will make the wolf cubs of the Dark Alliance laugh.
What's more, when the temple was previously recruiting for coalition forces, it had already been revealed that this undead decisive battle was not the end, but the real beginning, presumably everyone knew the prestige of Bits Leader, and the Gray Battle Saint had guarded the Lion Pass for a hundred years, so that the undead miscellaneous people were terrified.
This time, we will embark on the road of light from the Lion Pass, and all the land that has been conquered will be handed over to Archduke Richard, and I think the Duchy of Lionheart will be no less than any old Duchy! ”
Valentine's words fell, and all the nobles nodded one after another, and said meaningfully:
"Oh!"
Ted and Thomas twitched each other's arms, and Ted took the lead in saying:
"My lord, was Richard fooled by the Temple of Light this time?"
Thomas followed suit:
"Yes! Is this obviously an empty glove white wolf? Richard paid tens of thousands of elite Lionheart Knights in exchange for an empty Grand Dukeship, which is simply not cost-effective. What's more, if he wants Bitsling to become a real Duchy of Lionheart, he also needs to send more elites to fight back against the Dark Alliance, which is simply a bottomless pit! ”
Justin leaned over and smiled sheepishly:
"What's more! At the beginning, the Gray War Saint was so prestigious, since the Lion Pass thousands of miles away, there was no undead, but when the Gray War Saint fell, now the undead army has not advanced to the Lion Pass, even if the Lionheart Principality is really established, it has only become an outpost of the Stein Kingdom. ”
Link nodded and concluded:
"Yes! Even if Bits Leader becomes the Duchy of Lionheart, however, a steady stream of undead will attack the Duchy of Lionheart, and all of Richard's energy will be involved in defending against the undead, which is simply killing two birds with one stone, no, killing three birds with one stone! ”
Ted and Thomas complimented at the same time:
"Your Excellency is clever!"
Link didn't say a word, raised his head and looked in Richard's direction, only to see that this strong lion count, with a rare look of decadence at this time, was noncommittal to all of Valentine's words, even if it was an edict, Nathaniel received it on his behalf.
According to the outside world, Richard was hit by Celtic's skeletal battle qi during the battle to snipe Skeletron Celtic, and now he is on the verge of death.
Seeing that no one objected, Valentine continued:
"In the Kingdom of Stein, Raleigh, the commander of the Rex Corps, has made outstanding contributions in the decisive battle of the undead, and hereby confers the title of earl!"
"The Dominion of Salin, the commander of the Salin Corps, Eliot, has made outstanding contributions in the decisive battle of the undead, and is hereby awarded the title of earl!"
The two ecstatic nobles stepped forward and took the edict from Valentine's hand, followed by the flattery of the Lord of Light and the Temple of Light, and when the two returned, Valentin got up and said:
"Now it's time for the real decision! The decisive battle against the undead invading the Empire of Light has ended, but we cannot allow the undead to slaughter in our territory, so His Holiness has decided to send a force of two million men to counterattack the Dark Alliance.
To this end, the envoy will take out the path of light, one of the seven treasures of the temple, so that everyone can go straight to the specific combat area of the Dark Alliance, and after the mission is completed, the commanders will also have the permission to open the path of light, and can directly return to the Imperial Capital of Light through the path of light.
When the time comes, His Holiness the Pope will personally honour you! ”
This time, it was an instant cold, if it is said that there are still some common enemies in the decisive battle of the undead, especially the slaughter of millions of cities by Skeleton King, which has formed a great pressure on various nobles.
After all, with the combination of the Legendary Skeletron, the Legendary Lich King, and the Legendary Slayer Knight, it is difficult for even a single kingdom to guarantee absolute victory, let alone other principalities, domions, and city lords.
In the end, under the tandem of the Temple of Light, a light alliance of five million troops was formed, which directly broke the three undead legions in a devastating situation.
However, fighting against millions of undead in the territory of the Empire of Light does not mean that they are willing to enter the dangerous dark alliance, not to mention, in a single 'swamp of the undead', there are countless undead armies, even if they are all cannon fodder skeleton troops, but in the face of tens of millions of skeleton troops, even legendary powerhouses will be so powerless.
What's more, there are also countless powerhouses in the Dark Alliance, and those old and ancient undead will not enter the Empire of Light for various reasons, which does not mean that when they hit their lair, the other party will not rebel!
Valentine sneered in his heart, he had already known this situation, and he had prepared a carefully prepared gift, but before he could say anything, he saw Richard, who had been sick, stand up and said with a weak breath:
"Your Excellency, I have something to say below, I am willing to give up this grand duke title......"
