Inside the town hall of Copper Mountain.

"Lord Cross, are you planning a decisive battle with the enemy army in Wolfheart?"

In the past few days, Nia has seen Clos's actions, but she doesn't understand the intentions of many of Cross's methods.

"That's right. ”

"But...... The enemy is a very experienced army, and besides, their army is still much larger than ours, can we really succeed?"

"Nia, we can definitely win this fight, and besides, I have many ways to win.

The reason why I chose to fight the enemy head-on is because I want to train our recruits.

This battle is mainly about military training. ”

"Training?"

"Yes, only after experiencing actual combat will the fighting qualities of the soldiers be improved. ”

"Wouldn't that be a serious loss?"

"Nia, you have to remember that you can only gain by losing. ”

Nia bit her lip thoughtfully, she still didn't understand Cross's words.

Just then, the roar of a beast was heard outside the house.

Serena also suddenly broke through the door, "Your Excellency, it's the Empire's dragon beast soldiers. ”

Close immediately rushed out the door.

A silver-gray drake quickly came into Cross's line of sight, and on this back sat a warrior in silver armor, a spear in his hand, and a majestic style.

After seeing Cross appear, he harnessed the drake beast under him and walked towards Cross.

"Silver-Eyed Cross lives up to his reputation. ”

Cross covered his chest with his right hand and saluted, "Do you have any instructions for coming to the remote town of Copper Mountain?"

"Here's to you. The drake soldier took out a piece of parchment and threw it to Cross, "The empire is now in crisis, the northern Slanist states have broken through the northern defenses, and the ambitious Duke André has also taken advantage of the situation to launch a rebellion.

His Majesty the Emperor has no time to worry about the invasion of the Kingdom of Seatta, and Count Reinhardt has been killed in battle, and the Holy Helm City has become a dead city.

You have become the last hope of Klein Collar, and the parchment in your hand is the letter of appointment written by His Majesty the Emperor himself.

From now on, you are the true Earl of Klein Territory. ”

Cross was a little surprised, but he was a little worried.

His mentor once taught him that if someone gives you benefits without paying, you should think carefully about whether it is a trick of that person.

However, he didn't dare to question His Majesty the Emperor in front of the dragon beast soldiers, "It is a great honor for Cross Klein to be appreciated by His Majesty the Emperor, and I will definitely expel Seatta's army as soon as possible and restore peace to the Klein Territory." ”

"You should thank your mentor for his advice to His Majesty the Emperor. With that, the drake soldier left.

Watching the dragon beast soldier leave, a faint smile appeared on Cross's face.

In this way, it became justified for him to expand his power.

"Congratulations, Lord Cross. Serena was the first to celebrate Cross.

Later, Wendy and others also celebrated Cross becoming an earl.

"Your Excellency, you were lucky just now. ”

"Oh?" Cross looked at Wendy, who spoke, "What luck?"

"When the Imperial drakes appeared, the Hofers moved supplies into the underground city. ”

Cross felt a chill in his head, he knew that if the drakes found out that there were Hofers in Copperhill Town, the empire would definitely see him as an outlier. When the time comes, let alone become the earl of Klein Lord, the empire will even send troops to destroy itself.

"Wendy, let Ulala dig a new entrance and get out, and the entrance will lead directly to the granary. ”

"Okay, so you don't get caught in them. ”

After dealing with the matter, Cross decided to speed up his actions.

"Serena, you take this to Norman City. Cross handed the parchment to Serena.

"...... this?" Selina wondered.

"Let William, the lord of Norman City, send troops to Wolfheart City, with this, he shouldn't have any more action. ”

"I see, Lord Cross. ”

"Oh, you can use that. ”

Serena nodded, and Cross was allowing her to use illusions for diplomacy.

"In addition, regardless of whether he sends troops or not, you must transfer all the troops of Ximu Town to Wolfheart City, and I will completely defeat the Seatta army in Wolfheart City. ”

"Yes!"

Serena set off immediately, she used magic to move at high speeds, she didn't care about the consumption of mana, she knew that military operations had to be fast.

"Nia, you go and call Kubobo. ”

"Good. ”

......

Cross, along with Nia and Kubobo, fly towards Sunset City in Britney, who transforms into a red dragon. Of course, Link still followed Cross.

Before Cross left Copper Mountain, he also told Wendy, Setty, Reiner, and Tina that he should keep an eye on Hal at all times.

This Seatta spy is likely to take advantage of the lack of defenders in Copperhill to launch a mutiny.

Fortunately, Gawain will return to Copperhill with his troops after transporting this supply.

......

It is indeed quite convenient to have a means of transportation like the Red Dragon.

The group soon arrived in Sunset City.

Cross didn't beat around the bush either, and asked for someone directly from Milia.

"I'm sorry my Excellency, but none of our bloodlines can be exposed to the sun, except for the special beings of the Daywalker and the Ancestor. ”

"Milia, you're mistaken, I don't need the Bloodline. ”

"And what do you want?"

"Gargoyle Isaac and Gnoll Hogg, equip them with the best equipment, and we'll go. ”

Cross didn't give Milia a chance to think about it at all.

Miria sighed helplessly, "I'll prepare the best gear for them right away."

By the way, your Excellency, do you want to bring Everil with you? ”

Cross shook his head, "Eveliel doesn't need to, if I can't control her, maybe the entire Borean Fortress will be destroyed by her." ”

"Oh well. ”

Milia armed Isaac the Gargoyle and Hogg the Gnoll.

Isaac was directly covered with solid plate armor, and his weapon was a long-handled warhammer, the tip of which still flashed faintly blue from time to time, obviously, this was not an ordinary weapon.

Hogg was covered in metal armor, and his weapon was the Meteor Hammer, which was supposed to be just an ordinary weapon.

Eventually, Miria gave her a weapon, which she thought would be a perfect fit for her.

However, Cross thinks that the weapon is too big, and the appearance of the weapon is very strange.

The weapon was in the shape of a ring, and when it stood up, it was taller than Nia, and even close to Cross's height.

Cross said, "Milia, you're not kidding, are you?"

Is such a weapon really suitable for Nia?"
