I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means-Chapter 843 - 519: Leonard of the Paluo Federation

Chapter 843 -519: Leonard of the Paluo Federation

Cui Feng City, Mercenary Guild,

“In that case, there’s no problem.”

Lis looked at Gerard in front of him and nodded slightly.

“…How long will it take?”

Gerard was silent for a moment, then looked at Lis seriously and asked.

Since Lis had already agreed to the cooperation between the two parties, although it was a bit presumptuous, Gerard still wanted to get a clear timeline from Lis.

The current situation of the Gordon Kingdom was indeed quite dire, leaving Gerard understandably anxious.

Although the Ely Hills had just experienced an intense battle, giving them some breathing room, it definitely wouldn’t last long.

If he could receive support from the Feis Kingdom as soon as possible, the damage to Gerard’s troops would be minimized.

Most importantly, as long as the Feis Kingdom intervened in the war between the Gordon Kingdom, the Archibald Kingdom, and the Paluo Federation, even a temporary involvement would instantly shift the dynamics of the situation.

At the very least, the pressure on the Gordon Kingdom would be greatly reduced.

Lis did not answer directly; instead, he gestured to Bivis, who had been standing by the side, and said:

“Do you know who this is?”

“I don’t. Who is your friend?”

Gerard raised an eyebrow and said with a smile.

Bivis, although appearing rather elderly, was tall and imposing, clearly not an ordinary professional.

Moreover, during their negotiation, Lis had not asked this person to leave, indicating that he was related to the matter at hand.

Seeing this, Bivis did not continue to conceal his identity and said in a deep voice:

“I am Bivis Milan, Commander of the Feis Kingdom’s Golden Lion Knights.”

The Golden Lion Knight Commander Bivis!

Gerard was taken aback, instantly realizing the significance.

The Golden Lion Knights were the most powerful army of the Feis Kingdom, and now they had appeared here?

Didn’t this say it all?

Bivis, who had been listening to the conversation between Lis and Gerard, naturally knew what to say at this moment.

“The Golden Lion Knights are already approaching the direction of the Ely Hills and can enter the frontline battlefield at any time with the aid of the kingdom’s secret treasure.”

“His Majesty the King has also ordered that the Golden Lion Knights fully obey Duke Kane’s commands.”

“What?”

Gerard, who had remained calm, now visibly lost his composure, his expression changing dramatically with surprise and joy.

The joy was that their just-concluded cooperation with Lis was being responded to so quickly, making Lis’s claim of needing to report to His Majesty the King merely a formality.

The shock was that, according to Bivis, the Golden Lion Knights were already advancing toward the Ely Hills.

Gerard had previously heard of the renown of the Golden Lion Knights; they were the elite force of the Feis Kingdom.

But Gerard had not received any intelligence regarding the Golden Lion Knights, nor had there been any moves from the armies of the Archibald Kingdom or the Paluo Federation.

This meant that the approach of the Golden Lion Knights had gone entirely undetected by other kingdoms, which was quite terrifying.

Could it be the power of that kingdom’s secret treasure?

Was the Feis Kingdom truly this powerful?

Gerard couldn’t imagine the scene when the Golden Lion Knights suddenly appeared outside the Gordon Kingdom’s royal capital, the impact and panic it would cause would be more dramatic than the capital being breached.

At this moment, Gerard’s perception of the Feis Kingdom’s danger level significantly increased, and he decided that without determining the nature of the kingdom’s secret treasure and countermeasures, they must avoid conflict with the Feis Kingdom.

As he pondered this, Gerard looked at Lis, feeling a sense of amazement.

It seemed that King Morton of the Feis Kingdom was indeed decisive and had significant trust in Lis.

To know that the Golden Lion Knights were the most elite force of the Feis Kingdom, losing them would be an irreplaceable loss.

If the Golden Lion Knights were completely wiped out, it would severely weaken the entire Feis Kingdom.

To command such a core force and allow it to follow Lis’s orders completely, His Majesty the King must have great confidence in him.

For a moment, Gerard even speculated whether Lis might be the illegitimate child of King Morton.

“In that case, that’s excellent news.”

Gerard, visibly uplifted, considered that despite the mysterious means of the other party, having them as allies of the Gordon Kingdom was the best news.

With the Golden Lion Knights joining the war, Gerard was confident they could defeat the coalition forces of the Archibald Kingdom and the Paluo Federation.

This was not an exaggeration.

According to the plan, the Golden Lion Knights could completely bypass their enemy’s defenses and strike at their weak points directly.

As absolute elites, the Golden Lion Knights could seize opportunities to throw the enemy into chaos.

If they could eliminate a significant portion of the forces in the Ely Hills, the remaining forces within their borders would have no capacity to resist.

At that point, even diverting some forces to assist the Feis Kingdom in invading enemy territories would allow them to reserve enough strength to counter threats from other sources.

If this goal could be achieved, even handing over the conquered territories of the Archibald Kingdom and the Paluo Federation to the Feis Kingdom would be acceptable.

In the scenario where they had already annexed the Boditch Kingdom, conquering these territories would neutralize any threat from the Feis Kingdom, no matter how strong it might be.

Otherwise, their internal conflicts alone would plunge a human kingdom into turmoil.

“How do you intend to arrange things?”

Gerard’s tone warmed significantly, deliberately ignoring Lis’s earlier statement about needing to consult with King Morton.
