In the blink of an eye, it was already September. Di Maria Rainflower Stone arrived at the Soul Fortress through the Heart Reed Teleportation Formation.
The Soul Island, where the Soul Fortress was located, had become a bustling port. A large number of ships were docked there, and countless serfs were loading and unloading goods. The products of Blazing Island were sent to Iron and Steel Ridge, Eagle Country and other countries, and foreign resources were also gathered at Blazing Island.
However, there were strict quarantine standards for goods going in and out to prevent rats and other spies from sneaking in.
"What a great miracle, no matter how many times I transmigrate." Di Maria looked at the pitch-black magic door behind him and sighed silently.
At the thought of leaving Blazing Island for this mission, he felt a little conflicted.
As the former Marquis of Wildwave, he was born in the Kingdom of Eagle and had once chatted merrily with the Eagle King, Adonis Moonlight Silver. Now that he had been captured, he had sought refuge with the Fire Kingdom and was appointed as the Vice Chairman of the Development Committee. This meant that he had control over the entire kingdom.
This feeling was far better than in the past.
But now, he was going to Sapphire Duchy in the name of the Fire Kingdom's envoy to discuss with Sapphire Duke Anthony Sapphire about this year's development order.
According to last year's rules, the Sapphire Dragon would take the lead and invade the Eagle Kingdom to plunder its population.
Currently, the demoted Sapphire Duchy was still a vassal state of the Steel and Iron Ridge Kingdom. With such a title, the expansion order was just like in previous years. Moreover, there was a good excuse to dispatch the Sapphire Dragon. When the Eagle Kingdom launched a dragon-slaying war against the Sapphire Dragon, could it be that the Sapphire Duchy was not allowed to retaliate?
However, anyone with a discerning eye would know that the Fire Kingdom was behind this development order. This was Liszt's revenge.
"King Adonis, I can only say my apologies. The Yuhua Stone Family could not obtain the protection of the Eagle Kingdom. For the sake of the family's interests, we could only choose to lean towards the Fire Kingdom … His Majesty Liszt has great talent and bold vision, and his strength is shocking. In the future, the Yuhua Stone Family will only become stronger!"
Putting aside the little bit of guilt in his heart, Di Maria had already adjusted his state of mind when he took the boat to Blue Dragon Island.
Right now, he was a Knight of the Fire Kingdom. He only served his family, only served the Fire Kingdom!
…
Florence Wind-Chasing Arrow stood in front of the magic gate of Xiong Yu Teleportation Magic Circle, waiting with the crowd.
Today, the migrating Knight from the Grayiron Duchy had finally trudged over from the endless wilderness and was resting in Realgar City. Piero Grayiron and the other nobles would cross the teleportation circle today and arrive at Jade Stone City. They would officially join the Fire Kingdom and become the followers of Liszt, the Fire King.
The welcoming party was led by Lee William Tulip. This middle-aged noble, who currently only held the title of Marquis, was one of the few top-notch nobles in the Fire Kingdom — he was the father of the king!
He had already become a Domain Knight, an existence second only to the Dragon Knight.
There were those who envied Lee William, those who envied him, and those who disdained him. Many people believed that Leewilliam had been basking in the glory of his son. Otherwise, he would only have been a Sword Saint and an Earl. How could he have had such a glorious moment?
However, Leewilliam did not care about these jealous words at all. If he was so capable, he should have had a powerful son too.
Florence glanced at Leewilliam. He was not jealous or envious. He was about to become a perfect Sky Knight, and he also had the Domain Knight Training Manual. The Grayiron Duchy and the Eagle Royal Family were close friends, so they naturally had the Domain Knight Training Manual.
Duke Piero's talent was limited and he could not cultivate, but Florence was full of confidence.
In the future, he was destined to become a Domain Knight. With the rise of the Fire Kingdom, he would be conferred the title of Duke if he made great achievements.
"The rise of a brand-new kingdom will inevitably have to compete with the original three kingdoms for resources. I have plenty of opportunities to make contributions … Even if I can't grasp the opportunity to make contributions, I can still inherit my father's title and become a duke … But I hope to become a duke myself!"
He did not have much work to do on Blazing Island, so he had many opportunities to travel around.
What he heard the most here was not the gossip among the nobles, but the discussion of military achievements and the worship of Liszt.
At the age of 16, he was still a trainee Knight. People called him a loser and he was assigned to the most remote town in the country.
However, at the age of 18, Liszt had already become a Sky Knight and a Dragon Knight not long after. Later, he rose to power in the Battle of Dragon Slaying on the sea. Then, in the second Battle of Dragon Slaying, as a Holy Dragon Knight, he fought against five dragons and two Dragon Knights of the Eagle Kingdom alone.
He killed a Dragon Knight and took away the Grayiron Dragon.
It shocked the three kingdoms.
Now, Liszt was only 21 years old, but he had seven dragons, including the Invisible Dragon, the Fire Dragon, the Light Green Gem Dragon, the Gray Iron Dragon, the Orichalcum Dragon, the Aluminum Dragon, and the Bone Dragon. He did not know that Liszt had also obtained a new water dragon, so he had eight dragons.
In this era, the most legendary and dazzling one was Liszt. Everyone knew that his rise was unstoppable.
Therefore, being able to follow behind Liszt meant that they were about to make a fortune, and that great nobles would spring up one after another like bamboo shoots after the rain.
"My starting point is far higher than His Majesty Liszt. Although I am not blessed by the glory of the Knight like the Son of Glory, I also have to rely on my own efforts to create a family, instead of inheriting my father's title …"
Just as he was in a trance.
Suddenly, he heard someone shouting, "It's coming!"
Florence suddenly came back to his senses and looked up at the dark magic door. The deep blue vortex emerged, and then a loud dragon roar came from it. In the next moment, a tall silver-white figure rushed out of the magic door. Under the illumination of the sun, it shone with silver light.
It was the Aluminum Dragon that he had lost in the Battle of Soul!
It had now become one of Liszt's mounts, and had escorted the Knight migration team all the way to Flame Island.
After rushing out of the Xiong Yu teleportation array, the Aluminum Dragon left without looking back, flying into the sky and disappearing. It heard Liszt's call and went to the dragon nest that Liszt was arranging for it.
The appearance of the Aluminum Dragon caused a commotion among the Knight Knights, but it soon calmed down. The Knight welcoming the team had seen many dragons. There were quite a lot of dragons on Flame Island, especially the invisible dragon. It appeared very frequently, and its beautiful posture had already convinced everyone.
Therefore, everyone was immune to the new Aluminum Dragon.
A moment later, another vortex appeared in the teleportation array, and a team of Knight shuttled out. Seeing the familiar flag behind the Knight, Florence wanted to go forward to greet them, but he stopped and followed the other Knight. He did not want others to know about his relationship with Duke Piero.
After all, he had decided to rely on his own efforts to create a new family.
His shyness did not affect the whole welcoming ceremony. Leewilliam had already come forward on his black blood horse, and performed the Knight greeting with Duke Piero.
"Duke Piero, fellow Knight, welcome to Flame Island. On behalf of the King of Liszt, I extend a heartfelt welcome to you. His Majesty has been looking forward to your arrival, and the Flame Kingdom now needs you to join us to create a new era of the kingdom."
