The meeting in the palace did not last long. Afterward, he arrived at the rooftop of the palace. From there, he could see the streets of Denan City. Countless citizens were waiting for him.
"Long live the great king Abel!" Abel appeared on the rooftop with loud cheers.
He waited for a while, and only after the crowd cheered a few times did he raise his hand. Immediately, the crowd stopped cheering. Everyone looked at him with burning eyes, waiting for him to speak.
"My people, I am your Emperor. It's not that I don't love this Empire, it's just that I want to be strong enough to protect this Empire!
Looking at your clothes and healthy faces, although I don't have the time to participate in government affairs, I've managed this empire well. I've given you enough food to deal with hunger, warm clothes to survive the cold, and a powerful army to protect your safety!
No matter where you go in the Holy Continent, you can proudly announce that you are a citizen of the Kingdom of St Ellis, and you are under my protection! "
Abel's voice spread across Denan City. The citizens here had experienced a food shortage a few years ago. Back then, starvation was normal, and wars broke out everywhere.
Everything changed after Abel established the kingdom. Powerful national power and abundant food stabilized the newly established kingdom, and it became stronger and stronger in the following period.
Emperor Abel was a legend in the Holy Continent. Countless people were talking about him. In the Holy Continent where the gods had disappeared, he had replaced the position of the gods.
Many people's eyes were brimming with tears. Which empire had skyships flying in the sky? Which empire could force the orc empire, which had always been a threat to the human race, to close its borders?
Abel did not stay for long. He just showed his face to show his existence.
However, Denan City was bustling today. Countless people were singing and dancing loudly on the streets. People were having a carnival.
At this moment, Abel arrived at the meeting hall. He needed to meet with a few important figures of the kingdom.
Of course, his father and brother Zach were the first to arrive. After the baptism of power, Bennett's aura was very powerful. No one would have thought he was just a normal Knight of Arms a few years ago.
"Father, this is a private meeting. No need to bow. Please sit down!" Abel saw Bennett was about to bow, so he stepped up and helped him up. Afterward, he nodded to Zach.
"Abel, how powerful are you now?" Bennett was most concerned about this. Abel was the most powerful person in the kingdom.
"Father, no one in the Holy Continent can stop me!" Abel replied with a smile.
He didn't explain too much about his power. To be honest, he wasn't even on the same level as the wizards of the Holy Continent.
Speaker Bennett smiled, "Then the Empire can continue to exist in peace!"
"Father, I have a way for you and Zach to become wizards. I can do the same for mother!" Abel did not want to talk about the kingdom.
Bennett fell silent. He knew what it meant to become a wizard. Wizards could not get involved in worldly affairs. It was an iron law.
Abel was the only exception in the Holy Continent. He was a Grandmaster Blacksmith, and he had contributed a lot to the human race. That was why he was granted the title of Duke when he became a wizard. He also owned a kingdom and eventually became the emperor of an empire.
Abel's story could not be repeated. Once you became a wizard, you would have to leave the power circle of the kingdom. Although you still had a noble status, you would no longer have the feeling of controlling the world.
Yes, Bennett was Abel's father. When Abel was not in the kingdom, his power was almost equal to that of the emperor.
However, the most powerful force in the Kingdom of Saint Ellis was the sky ships controlled by the spirit. Also, he was the father of the emperor, so no one would say anything.
"Abel, I don't want the family to become a wizard family. My family is fine now. I don't want to change my life!" Bennett lowered his voice.
Abel fell silent. He did not expect Bennett to make a choice like this. No one knew which was more important, power or life.
As a matter of fact, not everyone could endure the hard training of a wizard, but the power of a noble was fascinating.
He didn't look at Zach, because his brother always listened to his father, Speaker Bennett.
"Father, if anyone in the family wants to become a wizard, just tell me!" He said helplessly.
Abel was not a member of the Bennett Family. He was a member of the Harry Family. Ever since Chancellor Bennett gave him to Duke Marshall as a foster son, he had always been a member of the Harry Family, both mentally and as a noble.
Therefore, he had no right to change Bennett's decision. He couldn't say whether it was right or wrong. Everyone had their own way of life.
He sighed in his heart. Since Bennett liked power, he might as well give him more.
"Father, Zach, I'll take you to a place!" Abel stepped up and put his hand on Zach and Bennett.
Afterward, he ignited the "instantaneous movement" and entered the underground space of the palace.
At the same time, he used his power of the Will to protect Chancellor Bennett and Zach. They were in a giant mana gem mine, so they would get hurt if they weren't protected by his power of the Will.
He took out the lance spirit from his holy portal bag and placed it here. He then connected it to the teleportation circle on the side.
Although Chancellor Bennett and Zach didn't know what Abel was doing, they could tell that the Lance Spirit was some kind of precious treasure.
Abel began to give the lance spirit the most power in the kingdom. Other than Harry Castle, it was in charge of all the spirits in the kingdom.
One must know that there were many spirits in the Empire. There were several spirits in the Imperial Palace alone. In addition, many teleportation arrays had their own management spirits. Although the functions of those spirits were very weak, they formed a network for the entire Empire.
Back when he was in the Holy Continent, he had already built a teleportation circle in every city in the kingdom. This meant that the kingdom could contact the city at any time and send out powerful knights or wizards to help in times of danger.
Now that the lance spirit had accepted the control of the teleportation circle spirit, it had accepted the control of all the circles in the palace.
"Father, this is the lance spirit. It is a powerful spirit. It can analyze all kinds of information in the kingdom and make the most appropriate decisions. At the same time, it can find any problems and solve them!" Abel explained the function of the lance spirit.
"The Lance spirit is so powerful that it can manage the entire kingdom?" Speaker Bennett looked at the tiny Lance spirit in shock.
It was hard to believe a spirit like this could have such power, but Abel had already explained the power of the lance spirit in detail.
"Father, I will add one more power to the lance spirit. Every head of Family Bennett will have the power to control the lance spirit!" Abel said with a smile.
This was his gift to Family Bennett, who didn't want to become a wizard. It was a status that would always be above the other families.
Of course, the power to control the lance spirit was not unlimited. Abel had also made some restrictions.
"What can I do with the lance spirit?" Master Bennett asked in confusion.
"I will arrange wizards to install a scanning circle on all the teleportation circles in the kingdom. When that happens, all the cities in the kingdom will be under surveillance. You can read the information as you wish. Also, the lance spirit has the power to control the sky ships. If necessary, you can use the sky ships to protect the family!" Abel explained.
Speaker Bennett knew what this meant. With the most detailed information, the members of Family Bennett could choose the most suitable plan when they were in power. They could even find the weakness of their opponents.
The head of Family Bennett could also analyze this information and guide the kingdom to make the right decision. As long as the head of Family Bennett was not stupid, he would be a genius in power.
The most important thing was that if the Bennett family needed it, they could be transferred to the sky ships.
The sky ships were the most special thing in the kingdom. They were controlled by Abel's servants and warriors of death, and they would only listen to him.
It was impossible for other people to take control of the skyships. What outsiders didn't know was that even if someone managed to take control of the skyships, the spirit of the skyships would use the weapons on the skyships to kill them.
Even if there was no one controlling the sky ships, the only thing missing was the bursting crossbow. They could still attack with the lightning spiral.
"Abel, you have done enough for Family Bennett!" Speaker Bennett said emotionally.
He didn't know if he had made the right choice today, but he knew Abel still cared about them.
After leading Speaker Bennett and Zach back to the guest room, the Grand Knight Of The Bodley strode in and kneeled down.
"Bodley, get up and take a seat!" Abel waved his hand and said.
The Grand Knight Of The Bodley sat down. They hadn't seen each other for a few years, and the Grand Knight Of The Bodley hadn't changed much. After reaching the rank of a knight commander, he could only focus on the Knight Legion.
"Bodley, I have something to ask you!" Abel said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, please tell me what you need!" The Grand Knight Of The Bodley bowed.
"Bodley, I need you to find me a hundred trustworthy Knights. These Knights should be highly skilled in battle and have absolute loyalty!" Abel lowered his voice.
"Your Majesty, you can even find a thousand Knights in your legion!" The Grand Knight Of The Bodley replied loudly.
"No need to rush. You can train these hundred Knights yourself. When I return to the Holy Continent next time, I will sign a magic contract with them. They will help me test my path after becoming a Knight!" Abel shook his head with a smile.
It was true. Because of Abel's powerful performance in all the wars and his legendary deeds, he had gained countless fanatical supporters among the Knight and nobles.
If he needed a group of Knights to die for him, there would be countless Knights standing up for him.
"Path after becoming a Knight?" The Grand Knight Of The Bodley's eyes began to sparkle. He had lost all hope for the path after becoming a Knight, but Abel's words gave him hope again.
Abel continued, "I still need to do some experiments, but the body of the test subjects must be exceptionally strong. That's the task I'm giving you. I'll give you some special potions to use. I need their bodies to be as strong as the orcs!"
The Grand Knight Of The Bodley was very direct. He looked at Abel with hope, "Your Majesty, do you need a Grand Knight test subject? Do you think I can do it?"
"Ok, Bodley. Once the experiment is successful, I will help you level up. The situation is still unclear, and I don't want my general to die in this!" Abel rejected.
The Grand Knight Of The Bodley left with a smile on his face. He had already decided in his heart that he would pick the strongest Knight from the Knight Legion when he got back. Speaking of loyalty, no one in the legion was not loyal. Under his leadership, these knights had become Abel's most fanatical Knight.
Afterward, he met with a few ministers. It was mainly about Lan Ling. For example, the kingdom's intelligence system would share all the information with Lan Ling. At the same time, Lan Ling would also provide support to the intelligence system.
The intelligence system still didn't know what kind of help they would get, but as Lan Ling's control over the kingdom increased, any spy in the kingdom would be discovered by Lan Ling.
More importantly, once all the information about the Holy Continent was sent to Lan Ling, Lan Ling would be able to analyze all the trends in the Holy Continent. She could even predict the movements of the other 2 kingdoms.
It was the same in all aspects of the Empire. The distribution of food could be so precise that each city could satisfy its needs. Tax collection could determine whether or not each merchant was evading taxes. Law enforcement could directly discover and record all crimes, and the law enforcement department could retrieve the information to find the criminals.
With Lan Ling, the entire kingdom would operate in an orderly manner. There would be an invisible eye watching over everything. Anyone who dared to do anything that would endanger the kingdom would be punished.
Of course, if the person threatening the kingdom was powerful enough, the skyships would be dispatched. If they were too powerful, Lan Ling would notify Bartoli, and Bartoli would notify Abel in the Central Continent through the soul chain.
