Chapter 338: Chapter 154: Plunder "Has your power already surpassed Tier Six?" The Duke of the Western Border’s eyes flashed with a hint of despair, as an impossible conclusion emerged in his mind. But no matter how much he refused to believe it, there was only this possibility. He vaguely felt that Duke Frost Wolf’s punch seemed to have triggered the power of the entire world. This is something only a Sky Knight can achieve! The Duke of the Western Border’s words echoed in the council chamber, like a thunderclap, shaking the hearts of everyone present. Sky Knight. What a distant realm that is. Throughout the Kingdom’s history, those who reached this level were few and far between, each one a legendary existence. And Duke Frost Wolf had already stepped into that legendary domain! The nobles looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock and fear. They knew what the power of Tier Seven meant; it was a power that could easily alter the battlefield situation and even influence the fate of a nation! David did not deny it, his gaze was calm and profound, as if he could see through a person’s heart. His voice rang out once more, bearing an undeniable authority: "Now, is there anyone else who wants to challenge my authority?" The council chamber fell silent, no one dared to respond to David’s words. They all knew that in the face of absolute power, any resistance was futile. The Duke of the Western Border’s challenge had already proven this point; they could not be a match for Duke Frost Wolf. Some nobles began to retreat quietly, wanting to escape this dreadful place. But David’s gaze swept over them, and they were like frozen, unable to move. David did not pay attention to those nobles who wanted to flee, his gaze fell upon the Duke of the Western Border. He knew that as long as he resolved the leader, the others would naturally submit. He slowly walked towards the Duke of the Western Border, each step was like treading on the hearts of the nobles, suffocating them. The Duke of the Western Border tried to once again gather his strength, but he found he was no longer able. David’s power seemed to have a peculiar suppressive effect, preventing him from using the Fighting Qi within his body. Subsequently, David stood before the Duke of the Western Border, his voice calm: "You have one last chance, surrender or die." A struggle flashed across the Duke of the Western Border’s eyes. Ultimately, he slowly put down the weapon in his hand and knelt on one knee before David. Upon seeing this, the other nobles also knelt with a clatter, without a thought of resistance! David spared no effort and directly activated the Contract Spirit, establishing a Spirit Contract connection with the nobles present. Given his current level of spiritual power. These nobles, once they accepted the contract, had no chance of resistance! "Are you a Wizard?" 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢 A flash of disbelief crossed the Duke of the Western Border’s eyes. But even knowing that Duke Frost Wolf could wield Wizard power, he could only helplessly endure everything. Even if from now on, their strength stagnated, their fate was completely in the hands of Duke Frost Wolf! In the end, everyone signed an unbreakable Spirit Contract with David! Within the Heart of Contract, one after another Spiritual Marks floated, forming bonds of Contractual Power. David felt a slight enhancement in his own spiritual power and nodded slightly. Next, he would naturally take advantage of the Duke of the Western Border to control the entire Western Territory and plunder the wealth belonging to the Duke of the Western Border! The Duke of the Western Border’s wealth was indeed vast, all accumulated over years and gained through many battles, and now it was all accessible to David. ... Not long after. The Duke of the Western Border publicly swore allegiance to the Silver Dragon Princess. After the news spread, the entire Silver Moon Kingdom was shocked. Although it was anticipated when Duke Frost Wolf stationed troops at the border of the Western Territory, that the Western Territory would be conquered. They had only just received the news, yet the Duke of the Western Border had already publicly sworn allegiance! Everything happened too suddenly; no one had foreseen this outcome. The Duke of the Western Border was defeated without a fight. Moreover, the Duke of the Western Border simultaneously declared the Silver Dragon Princess as the heir to the Silver Moon Kingdom. Further accusing the new King Bronco of usurping power, committing patricide and fratricide, crimes that could not be forgiven. Though one didn’t know exactly what happened, undoubtedly, the Duke of the Western Border’s action drew a clear line between him and the new King Bronco. The Duke of the Western Border’s public allegiance to the Silver Dragon Princess spread like a political earthquake, quickly affecting every corner of the Silver Moon Kingdom. This news not only shocked the kingdom’s nobles and populace but also made the new King Bronco feel unprecedented pressure. Bronco had originally thought his throne was stable, but the Duke of the Western Border’s action undoubtedly cast a shadow over his rule. Nobles began to whisper among themselves, and the populace began to question the new king’s legitimacy. David, as a supporter of the Silver Dragon Princess, naturally would not miss this opportunity. He used his influence to spread the Duke of the Western Border’s allegiance news across various territories, with accompanying accusations against Bronco. These messages quickly spread throughout the Kingdom, leading people to question whether Bronco truly inherited the throne through legal means as he claimed. Bronco’s reputation was severely damaged, and his supporters began to waver. Some nobles who had remained neutral started considering whether they should change their stance to support the Silver Dragon Princess. Under such public pressure, Bronco had to take action.
