"In the name of the Blueblood, those who slander me shall be sentenced to death!"
Wu Ming stepped down from the trial platform and slashed Andrew into two halves with his sword. Then, he looked at Viscount Baylor with indifferent eyes.
"You are a true Blueblood! The reincarnation of the Blue Dragon, the successor of Thale the First, Earl William Wallace! I, Baylor, and my family are willing to pledge eternal loyalty to you and never betray you! "
At this time, the surrounding priests were already preaching about the miracle.
The soldiers, freedmen, and even the private soldiers of other nobles seemed to believe it. They all knelt on the ground and saluted Wu Ming.
Viscount Baylor smiled bitterly. He knew that he had no chance to turn the tables, so he immediately chose to surrender.
Behind him, Charles also lowered his proud head. The sense of defeat in his heart was unparalleled.
"You made a mistake in your oath!"
Wu Ming said loudly, "I have no intention of taking the position of Earl of Blue Mountain. I have obtained the inheritance of Thale, and I am the true king!"
Behind him, Tana excitedly came forward with a tray. In the center of a large amount of soft velvet was a glorious King's Crown. The huge blue diamond on it was extremely dazzling.
"From today onwards, I will be crowned king!"
Under many dumbfounded expressions, Wu Ming put the blue diamond crown on his head and loudly declared.
"This … is really the blue diamond crown. That diamond can't be faked! The ancient proof of the king has chosen William. He is the new king! "
The Blueblood were old-fashioned and conservative. They paid great attention to rules and bloodlines.
But now, the biggest rule, the purest bloodline, had appeared in front of them!
What other choice did they have besides kneeling down and worshiping?
"My king!"
Knight Jack, Ava, Marlett, and many soldiers were the first to kneel, followed by Tana, Baron Terry, and Baron Wilford.
Seeing that more and more Blueblood chose to surrender, Alice stared at the crown on Wu Ming's head. Her eyes emitted an indescribable passion, and she slowly knelt down.
"The king of the Blueblood has finally appeared!"
If Viscount Baylor's surrender was forced by the situation before, then his mentality had changed again! There was a glimmer of expectation for William.
With the guarantee of strength, the influence brought about by this kind of righteousness was simply unparalleled.
"From today onwards, I am the Conqueror King! Conqueror William the First! "
Wu Ming looked at all his subjects and declared, "I will form a true Blueblood Coalition Army and conquer the entire Seer Continent!"
…
"… In the name of the king of the Wind Firefly Plains, the leader of the Blueblood Nobles, the guardian of Howling City, the incarnation of the ancient sun and moon, the overseer of the church, the king of kings, the reincarnation of the Blue Dragon, the Conqueror King William the First … I order you, the thieves who have invaded Eagle Castle and Death Valley, the usurpers from the highlands, to immediately scram from this land and hand over the criminals to us for trial. We will compensate you for your crimes, or else I will lead my army to annihilate all of you. I will chop off your heads and pile them into hills so that your souls will tremble in the Nine Hells!"
Within the Eagle Fortress.
Garcia read the letter in his hand carefully, and the expression on his face was very interesting. "Conquest King William Wallace the First?"
Below him, many Highland Knights were also infuriated by the arrogant letter.
"This is too much! He dares to overstep his authority and call himself a king!"
A Red Lion Knight scolded angrily. He did not notice that some of the knights and nobles who had joined Viscount Garcia's side in the Wind Firefly Plains had changed their expressions.
"Sir Soros!"
"You're a local. Tell me about what you've heard!" Garcia pointed out the name.
"Yes, my lord!"
A silent knight walked out. His skin was very white, and his blue veins were very obvious. This meant that his bloodline was also very pure.
"Conquest King William gathered all the Blueblood Nobles of the Wind Firefly Plains and held a ceremony in Howling City. He wore the Blue Diamond Crown and obtained the loyalty of all the nobles present. Right now, he is leading an army of 10,000 people and is already on the way to Eagle Fortress."
Sir Soros said slowly.
"I've heard of the legend of the Blue Diamond Crown. In order to obtain it, the Ancient King Thale the Conqueror attacked an entire city!"
Viscount Garcia said in a tone of amazement.
"In fact, it is far from that! The territory of the Wind Firefly Plains is enough to build a kingdom. However, no Blueblood Nobles have been able to do this because they have not obtained the Proof of the King! And now, it has appeared in the hands of William the First! "
Even Soros did not realise that when he mentioned Wu Ming, his tone had unconsciously become more respectful.
Garcia's reaction made him frown.
"The Proof of the King of the Wind Firefly Plains, the Blue Diamond Crown?"
He seemed to have thought of something very interesting, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "If the successor of our family is here, things will become extremely interesting!"
After the discussion ended, he ordered Sir Soros to reinforce the walls and prepare to deal with the invading army. After a while, everyone had left. Garcia's expression became extremely solemn, "Immediately send someone to request for reinforcements from the family!"
Although he had the steep castle, the natural stronghold of Death Canyon, and 5,000 soldiers, the enemy had tens of thousands of people. However, according to the investigation, the other side had over ten thousand people, and the morale of their side was also a problem.
Garcia was very clear about the importance of the Proof of the King, especially Thale's Blue Diamond Crown. Once he had it, it was equivalent to having the laws and orthodoxy to rule the entire Wind Firefly Plains!
"Who would've thought that just as the Blueblood Nobles were about to completely collapse, such a change would occur!"
Garcia quickly used a quill to write a letter asking for help, and then used a seal to seal it. He handed it to the specialized pigeon breeder, "Send them to the highland, immediately, immediately!"
By the time all of this was done, the original hall was already empty.
"Merlin!"
Garcia looked to the side. A figure was gradually walking out from the illusion. It was the mysterious wizard from before.
"My master!"
His voice was hoarse as he bowed to Garcia in an ancient etiquette.
"Isn't it funny? A few days ago, I was still fighting with Sir Smith openly and secretly, trying to reduce and weaken the strength of the highland. But now, I can't wait for the family's army to arrive here! "
Garcia smiled bitterly, "This time, what kind of future did you see in the crystal ball?"
"I can't see it!"
Merlin shook his head, "This time … There's a mysterious force that's even stronger than before guarding around the king. I can only see a dense fog!"
"Dense fog?"
"The power of magic isn't enough for me to break through the dense fog. This is a bad sign!"
Wizard Merlin's voice was low, "My master, you've made the right decision!"
…
At the same time, a large army with a sword and shield as their insignia had arrived at Death Canyon.
This was the hub that connected the highland and Wind Firefly Plains. There were steep cliffs on both sides, and only a small path in the middle could be used.
Eagle Fort was located on the path that one had to pass through in order to reach Death Canyon.
In the past, with the Viscount of Eagle Fort guarding this place, it was difficult for the Wellington family of the highland to take a step forward. However, after the Viscount of Eagle Fort rebelled, everything changed.
The red lion flag was raised above Eagle Fort, and the silhouettes of soldiers were faintly discernible in the canyon.
"Set up camp first!"
Wu Ming looked at the large army behind him and finally made a decision.
This time, it could be said that he had turned out in full force. Not only himself, but many of the blue-blood aristocrats were also forced to use their capital. For example, Viscount Baylor had brought a thousand men with him.
This army of ten thousand was the last capital and elite force of all the blue-blood aristocrats.
However, the miscellaneous forces still needed to get used to each other. If they were to attack such a dangerous place recklessly, even if they had sharp weapons such as wooden cannons, they would inevitably suffer heavy casualties, which would be detrimental to morale.
"Your Majesty the Conquest King!"
A horse galloped over. It was Viscount Baylor.
"Your messenger has returned. Viscount Garcia has rejected the request to surrender!"
He seemed to have wholeheartedly pledged his allegiance to Wu Ming now, and was doing his best.
"Of course. He's a lion from the highland, how could he surrender so easily?"
Wu Ming laughed, "My target has never been him or those highland soldiers!"
"What do you mean, sir?"
Viscount Baylor's eyes lit up.
"When Viscount Garcia came to the Wind Firefly Plains to develop himself, he did not obtain the support of his family. Hence, most of his subordinates were knights and aristocrats from the Wind Firefly Plains. They grew up listening to the legends of the Conquest King, and the Blue Diamond Crown is very important to them. Are they really willing to fight with me?"
Wu Ming smiled, "We have to seize this opportunity and seize the entire Eagle Castle in one attack. Otherwise, it will be a tough battle."
In the past, Eagle Castle was in the hands of the blue-blood aristocrats, and it was very difficult for the Highland Lion Family to come over. However, it was different now.
Wu Ming was sure that the moment Garcia heard that his army was about to attack, he would immediately report to his family and request for reinforcements.
The Wellington Family was a prestigious family from the highlands, and they had the title of Duke. Their overall strength was even greater than that of the Blue Tiger Count.
Once they were fully mobilized, and with the Death Canyon as their backing, they would definitely bring great trouble to Wu Ming.
Hence, all he could do was to seize Eagle Castle before all of this started, and cut off the other party's path!
"How are my Watchers?"
After returning to the tent, he dismissed the others and looked at Madam Alice, who was the only one left behind.
"Using the power of spells and holy oil, we have created a batch of knights, led by Carlitan!"
This beautiful Witch bowed slightly, "Our Guardians are ready, and we can carry out the mission anytime!"
