In the arena of the main city, Li Huailin was in his own box. This box was the best position on the second floor, and he could see the entire arena. It was supposed to be prepared for King Anthony, but since Anthony wasn't here, it was given to Li Huailin. The room was very big, but there weren't many people standing in it. Only Li Huailin, Legg, Bruno, Dramo, Reggie, and Gina were there. The other royal knights were guarding the door, while the deputy commander, Eddra, went out to command the deployment of the personnel.
The competition below had already begun. Romeriger had already gone to participate in the competition, and Li Huailin had also sent his candidates to participate in the competition. Because it could be seen from Rickson's situation that these people weren't that good, Li Huailin ordered all the candidates to practice and see if they could make it. Legg was also a little ashamed. After all, these people were all chosen by him, but he didn't expect them to be so weak, so he didn't say anything.
Although the arena hall was almost half destroyed due to some accidents, the competition was still going on as planned. It was just that the competition now was a little boring, because the first competition was going on, and that was spear throwing. Because there were too many people who signed up, the first spear throwing event was to eliminate a group of people who were obviously not that good. Because it wasn't a duel, it was boring, and there weren't many things to see. The nobles also took advantage of this time to chat a little and get to know each other.
Of course, as the most powerful nobles here, there were many nobles who wanted to get to know Li Huailin, but Li Huailin didn't have the time to talk to them one by one. They were all blocked by the guards. Taking advantage of this time, Li Huailin also wanted to deal with Dramo here.
This Dramo Li Huailin was quite satisfied with Li Huailin. After all, he could actually fight with Bruno, so he was definitely a talent that he wanted. But first, he had to understand what this guy wanted. Looking at the three people kneeling in front of him, Li Huailin suddenly felt like an interviewer in the real world.
"So you are really the wanted criminals of the Secret Blue Shadow Knights?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, Your Grace." Delamo nodded. "Three years ago, our lord was unjustly stripped of his noble title and forcibly reclaimed his territory. In the end, we launched a revolt to protect our territory, but unfortunately, it ended in failure. Out of 19 knights in our regiment, only 5 escaped."
"But there are only three of you here. Are the other two not willing to come with me?" Li Huailin asked.
"Oh, no, Your Excellency." Gina answered, "Du and Sajinke separated from us two years ago. I heard that they have joined a new lord, but we don't know which lord it is."
"Oh, I see." Li Huailin nodded. "Then, why did you choose me?"
"Because the Duke is the strongest person I know on the main road," Dramo immediately replied.
"Oh? The strongest person? That's a bit of an exaggeration. In fact, my personal strength is still very weak. "Li Huailin said.
"Of course, I'm not referring to personal strength. Three years ago, I also thought that personal strength was everything. As long as you are strong enough, you can have everything. But it turns out that's not the case. " Dramo said, "Our knights are very strong. At that time, I gathered 18 real masters, but in the end, a team of only 6000 people was able to defeat us. If it were you, Duke, the army of 6000 people wouldn't dare to fight you at all, because you're an existence that wiped out millions of orcs with a wave of your hand. I think that's the real powerhouse."
"Oh, I see." Li Huailin nodded. He already knew the intention and reason of the job. Now, it was time to ask about the salary. "So, what do you want?"
"We hope that you can rehabilitate our former lord, Count Jagello," Dramo said immediately.
"Oh, rehabilitate?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, Count Jagello was wrongly accused. The one who ordered the removal of his title and territory was the former king, so there was nothing we could do. But now that the new king has ascended the throne, I think this should be an opportunity. Although the Jagiello family is no more, if we don't do this, Count Jagiello will still bear the name of a traitor. Count Jagiello has done us a favor, and we hope to clear his name. And for ourselves, if Count Jagello is proven innocent, then our arrest warrant will naturally be canceled. "Dramo replied.
"Oh, I see." Li Huailin thought for a moment. Of course, Li Huailin would not help this unknown Count Jagello. It wasn't that Li Huailin couldn't do it, but there was no benefit to it at all. Instead, there were side effects. Because of his system, if he helped to rehabilitate Count Jagello, then the loyalty of these people would undoubtedly plummet. Li Huailin wanted to recruit these people, so how could he do it?
However, Li Huailin had to cancel the arrest warrant. Otherwise, it would be more troublesome. So after thinking about it, Li Huailin had a rough idea of what he should do.
"Alright, I understand your request." Li Huailin nodded.
"Has His Highness agreed?" Dramo asked.
"Yes." Li Huailin nodded.
"Thank you, Your Highness. Then we will also abide by the agreement and pledge our loyalty to you," Dramo immediately said.
"We pledge our loyalty to Your Highness," Reggie and Gina immediately said.
"Mmm." Li Huailin nodded, then opened his page to have a look. Sure enough, the three new people who joined were all in the unassigned interface. He looked at their attributes.

"Oh?" Li Huailin was slightly surprised. The strength of these three people was a little too strong. All three of them actually had a combat strength of more than 90. This Dragon Mo was simply a monster like Bruno. His combat strength of 99 was almost off the charts. The weak-looking young man behind him actually had Strength of 93, and his special skill was not bad either. He was practically the captain of a surprise attack team. Of course, the most surprising one was the female knight named Gina, who looked like she was in her twenties. She actually had the highest five measurements among the three. Her attributes were practically on par with McCann's.
"Is this Shadow of Secret Blue Knights really that powerful?" The quality of this group of people was a little too high. Li Huailin felt that with this group of people, they should have been invincible a long time ago. Unfortunately, they just lacked a leader. It seemed that their previous boss, Count Jagello, was definitely a very weak guy.
Because they were new, their Loyalty was not very high, only around 70. However, Li Huailin was not very worried. After all, when he went back and met with Anthony, their Loyalty would probably skyrocket to 100, so he was not too worried.
"When we return to the territory, we will hold the knight's oath ceremony," Li Huailin said.
"Yes, Your Grace." Dramo replied, "Your Grace, do you need me to tell you about Count Jagello?"
"You mean the reason why he was wronged?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, Your Grace." Dramo replied.
"Let's wait for a while." Li Huailin did not intend to listen to the story. He did not want to do it anyway, so he said, "Let me ask you, can you still contact the two remaining Shadow of Secret Blue Knights?"
Because these guys were so awesome, Li Huailin wanted to poach the other two as well. So, he wanted to see where they were and see if it was possible to get them to join him.
"This … we haven't been in contact for two years. I don't know if we can still contact them …" Dramo said with a little uncertainty.
"Legg, send someone to check …" Just as Li Huailin was about to make arrangements, the door of the box suddenly opened. Li Huailin looked back and saw Edra, the deputy head of the Royal Knights.
"Your Grace." Edra walked in front of Li Huailin and bowed.
"What's the matter?" Li Huailin asked.
"Someone wants to see you, Your Grace," Edra replied.
"Didn't I say I won't see him?" Li Huailin said.
"Uh, he's not a noble of our empire," Edra said. "He's a diplomat from the Dwarf Empire."
"A diplomat from the Dwarf Empire?" Li Huailin asked, a little puzzled.
"With him is our diplomat in the Dwarf Empire, the eldest son of Marshal Marlindoff, the former Marshal of the Second Legion, Edwin Marlindoff," Eddra said.
"Huh?" Li Huailin was a little stunned. He almost forgot about this matter. Marlindorf, who was killed by him, had a son. In theory, he was the legitimate candidate for the Second Legion's marshal. But now that the emperor had changed, there was basically no such thing. Now that the other party took the initiative to look for him, he did not know what was going on.
"Alright, let them in," Li Huailin said.
