Lord: Taken away from inheritance at the beginning.

In the splendid hall of Moonlight Castle, three distinguished guests received the invitation from Jesus.

Of these three people, two were tall and mighty knights wrapped in black armor.

They were unsmiling, with cold expressions, and the two-meter-long giant swords on their backs exuded a dangerous aura all the time.

The remaining one is a bit of an anomaly.

His skin was as pale as snow, and his slender, thin figure was completely shrouded in black mage robes. His whole person looked particularly monstrous against the backdrop of his long red hair.

"Wait a moment, you three. The Earl will be here soon."

Idrissa, who was in charge of the reception, arranged for servants to serve and at the same time asked someone to notify the Earl of Moonlight Valley.

The strange man looked around and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "The meteor knight last time was called Ramsay. I don't seem to smell his breath here."

Idrissa was in awe. He didn't know why, but he was very reluctant to come into contact with these three people. They always gave him an indescribable and strange feeling on their bodies.

"Ramsey is not at Moonlight Castle."

News of Ramsey's possible death has not been announced to the public yet, and he will naturally not mention it to outsiders.

Soon Jesus walked into the hall, Idrissa bowed, and then left the hall with all the servants.

"You three, I haven't seen you for a long time. How is the environment in Moonlight Forest?"

The strange man who was sitting stood up and showed a smile that looked a little evil.

"The scenery in your territory is indeed very beautiful. Black Shang, Fanatic and I are so addicted to it that we can't extricate ourselves. If you hadn't sent someone to inform us, maybe we would have stayed there for a long time."

Jesus sat on the chair, and after exchanging greetings for a few words, he directly stated the purpose of inviting the other party over.

"I promise to cooperate with you."

He paused for a moment, "But I have an additional request. You must prioritize my safety."

The strange man's heart moved. He heard some clues from these words. Could it be that something happened in Moonlight Valley and Jesus' life was threatened?

Thinking of the Meteor Knight who was not present, he had reason to suspect that something had happened to Ramsey.

But he didn't ask any more questions, but showed a sincere and friendly smile and bowed gracefully.

"On behalf of Lord Flamewing, Mephisto welcomes you to officially join Holy Storm! From now on, you are our agent in the Kingdom of Alduin, and as an ally, your safety will naturally be protected by us!"

Jesus has long heard about Holy Storm, a powerful organization that emerged in the Kingdom of Tricia.

It is said that the recent major riots in the Kingdom of Tricia were planned and carried out by this organization, just like the Polish Bandits who occupied a piece of land as their territory.

The only difference is that the Polite Bandits were wiped out, but not only was the Holy Storm not wiped out, but its legitimacy was recognized by the Kingdom of Tricia.

The reason for all this, according to Mephisto, is that Lord Flamewing, the leader of the Holy Storm, possesses the peak power of the Silver Moon level. When it explodes, it can even rival the Sun Knight!

Jesus somewhat believed this theory, but he was doubtful about Yanyi's strength.

I haven’t seen one of the Sun Knights in many years. Who dares to say that he is comparable to the Sun Knight?

But he had to admit that the three people in front of him had great strength.

The leader of the three, Mephisto, is a rare great mage, and the remaining two, the darker-skinned Blackscar, is the Meteor Knight, and the madman is the Golden Knight.

A trio of this caliber attracts special attention wherever they go.

Under normal circumstances, Jesus would be very happy for such a strong person to come looking for cooperation.

But the purpose of this Holy Storm organization is not simple. They want to imitate the former Emperor Orlanthe to end the conflict between the two kingdoms and re-establish a new empire-the Holy Storm Empire.

Although Jesus laughed in his heart that the other party's dream was a bit big, he also saw opportunities in it.

He has always felt that he should not just be a small earl, but should have higher power and status, as well as a wider territory.

For this reason, he has been thinking about occupying Wushan Territory.

But under the existing order of the kingdom, he cannot come openly.

The purpose of these three people from the Holy Storm Organization coming to the Kingdom of Alduin is to muddy the waters here and create a chaotic situation.

In the chaotic situation, Jesus didn't have so many worries when he invaded the Wushan Territory.

Moreover, the other party also promised him that once the empire is established, Jesus, as an agent, will become the Grand Duke of the Holy Storm Empire.

Whether the prince is a prince or not is a very distant matter, and Jesus can't control it too much.

What he values ​​​​is introducing the Holy Storm to bring him opportunities.

Just doing this would be equivalent to betraying Alduin, so he has been hesitating during this time.

It was not until yesterday that Jesus made up his mind when he felt that his life was threatened after the news of the deaths of Ramsey and Angus was suspected.

If Alduin is not sentenced, that will happen very later. What he has to do now is to ensure that his life is not threatened and that he can survive in peace.

Next, the two parties determined the content of cooperation.

First, Jesus needs to provide Mephisto with a small town, and at the same time allocate a population of at least 30,000, as the base of Holy Storm in the Kingdom of Alduin;

Secondly, Jesus will arrange for a knight group to be led by Black Shang to guard the base.

In return, Mephisto will let Blackshang follow Jesus around to ensure the latter's safety.

At the same time, to a certain extent, he followed Jesus' arrangements and solved some troubles for him.

"If you want to cause chaos, I hope you choose Wushan Territory as your first target."

Jesus said coldly.

The main purpose of the Holy Storm is to create chaos and create opportunities.

In this case, it is most appropriate to choose the Wushan collar, which is changing from weak to normal.

Jesus can take this opportunity to avenge Ramsey and Angus, and also to vent his anger. It also creates the possibility for him to expand northward.

"My Lord Earl, I need you to provide us with detailed information about Wushan Territory."

Jesus didn’t hesitate: “That’s not a problem!”

Next, he told all the information about the Wushan Territory, even the possible murders of Ramsey and Angus.

"Wushan Leader is indeed a good target, but directly assassinating him is not the best choice."

Mephisto's eyes flashed, "What we need is greater chaos and more people to participate."

"Oh?"

Jesus felt a shiver in his heart. The thin man in front of him was dangerous, but he was looking forward to it.

"What are you going to do?"

“We need to strengthen ourselves first.”

Mephisto smiled mysteriously, "I wonder, Your Excellency, Earl, do you want to become stronger?"

Jesus frowned. The other party just said that he wanted more people to participate, but the next second he changed the subject and asked him if he wanted to become stronger. What was the connection between the two?

Although he was confused, he still answered: "Every knight wants to become stronger, and I am no exception."

Mephisto stretched out his hand, and a black bead appeared in his palm.

"I have a way for you to become a Golden Knight in one day. Do you want to try it?"

Jesus' eyes widened, "What do you mean?"

"That's literally what it means."

Mephisto spread his hands, and the black beads on his palms glowed.

He glanced at the two knights beside him, Black Shang and Madman.

Whizzing!

The two of them moved at the same time, controlling each other to the left and right before Jesus could react.

At the same time, Mephisto raised his hand and set up a barrier so that the sounds in the room could not be transmitted out.

"What are you doing?"

Jesus shouted in horror.

He knows the strength of the other party, but the relationship between the two parties is cooperation and mutual benefit, and the other party has no benefit at all from dealing with him.

"In the past, with Ramsey by your side, we didn't dare to do anything blatantly. But now that he is gone, our cooperation methods will naturally have to change."

As he finished speaking, the black beads in his hand emitted a rich black light.

"Don't worry, it's your honor to join us."

Mephisto's voice was full of confusion, "We will not harm you."
