Chapter 231: Chapter 131: The Contract Book That Must Never Be Broken! Silver Moon Calendar 659, Month of the Cold Winter. The entire Northern Lands were covered in ice and snow, with the heavy snow sealing off the mountains. Fortunately, under Reina’s arrangements, everything was in perfect order. As the heavy snow fell, the entire world quieted down. But everyone knew that when the snow melts, new chaos might erupt again, and everyone was preparing for the impending turmoil. ... Build high walls, store ample grain, delay the claim to kingship. This was David’s development goal during this period. With his current strength, it wasn’t difficult to secure the Northern Lands. With the Northern Fortress at his back, even the Silver Moon Kingdom would find it hard to invade the Northern Lands. And next, with the possession of the Black Forest as a treasure trove, the strength of the entire Frost Wolf Ridge could continue to grow. The sheer number of Middle Tier Extraordinary Magical Beasts Annie controlled through Spirit Contract was a terrifying force! Cynthia could similarly use her Beastification Talent to command a large number of magical beasts. If Cynthia’s Beastification Talent could also reach the Extraordinary Level and obtain the Beast’s Heart, the effect would be even stronger. David was confident that if given enough time, the Wizard Castle would acquire the strength to stand against the Holy Light Church. ... City Hall. Reina would come by every day to check on things. David would come once every half-month to meet with some lords and officials. However, due to the roads being blocked by snow, the lords were trapped in their own territories. But even so, with the Messenger Magic Pets, no news could be kept from Frost Wolf Ridge. At this moment, inside the City Hall. Reina was examining the information collected by the Messenger Magic Pets. All this information was gathered yesterday after Annie recalled the Messenger Magic Pets. Apart from the Northern Lands, there was also information from the Silver Moon Kingdom and Jingge Kingdom. Reina skimmed through them one by one, although some information seemed unremarkable, when put together, some differences could be seen. "The castles of these Northern Lords are all simultaneously receiving guests?" Reina squinted her eyes, sharply discerning what might be hidden behind this. "Guests?" "People from the Silver Moon Royal Family?" After David learned the news, he also felt something was off. Although war couldn’t break out in snow, it was definitely a good time to persuade and win over the Northern Nobles. Everyone knew that a war was inevitable between the Northern Lands and the Silver Moon Kingdom, and from the current circumstances, the Silver Moon Kingdom had the absolute upper hand. In such a situation, some lords were bound to have second thoughts, taking the chance to secretly pledge allegiance to the Silver Moon Royal Family, so that they could surrender proactively during conflicts. "What should we do?" Reina asked in a low voice. They were only speculating and didn’t have any substantial evidence. "First, collect the names secretly." "For now, we don’t really have a good solution." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦 David shook his head; this was indeed a tough battle. Though he was confident that he could resist with the Northern Fortress as his stronghold. Ultimately, however, they might be trapped within the Northern Fortress and lose the Northern Lands. Additionally, he had a route into the Mist Forest, but that was a last-resort option, since he wasn’t clear about the situation within the Mist Forest, it was too dangerous to stay there recklessly. If possible, he didn’t want to give up the Northern Lands as they could provide a continuous supply of resources, and he needed Frost Wolf Ridge to find more witches, thereby further enhancing the Wizard Castle and his own power. However, this also gave him a trump card to overturn the table. ... In the following period. David continued with his cultivation as usual. While trying to care for every lady. He consciously spent more time cultivating with Annie. Although Annie was too sensitive and couldn’t train for long each time, by adhering to the principle of having smaller but more frequent sessions, the number of completions each day was quite substantial. Afterward, David took Ye Zi with him into the Mist Forest to have Ye Zi search for the magical plants it contained. The trip was indeed fruitful, even gathering all the components for a special potion called the Heart of Life. This Heart of Life special potion is used for enhancing Life Strength. Even David, a Tier Six Knight, could use it to further increase the strength of his Life Seed. The witches also used the potions prepared by Ye Zi to continually enhance their powers, with Sofia finally breaking through to Tier Two. With the Mist Forest as a natural herb library, Ye Zi wouldn’t need to worry about potion materials for some time. ... Northern Lands. A conspiracy was secretly underway. Although David essentially controlled the Northern Lands, his hold over the Northern Nobles wasn’t deep, with most merely yielding to his strength. Even those nobles leaning toward the Frost Wolf Clan couldn’t withstand the pressure from the Silver Moon Kingdom and secretly pledged allegiance to the Silver Moon Royal Family. This snow covered everything, masked the peace, and those ordinary people living in the Northern Lands were unaware of the turbulent waves hidden beneath the snow. Silver Moon Royal Capital. Bronco’s gaze was directed towards the Northern Lands, deep and contemplative. Behind him, the Guardian Knight was clad in the Silver Dragon Armor of the Silver Moon Royal Family. "Your Majesty." The Guardian Knight knelt on one knee in salute. "It’s time." Bronco nodded heavily, "The task is up to you now." "Your Majesty, please rest assured." The Guardian Knight responded firmly, his eyes reflecting unwavering resolve.
