The Imperial General Alaric opened his mouth, half angry and half helpless. Looking at Fugen's disgusting but extremely handsome face, Alaric finally said his conditions.

"First of all, protect our Imperial soldiers, and you must treat them the same as your own soldiers."

"If they can prove their loyalty and combat effectiveness, I will." Fogen nodded and agreed.

"The second..." Alaric was still waiting to say something, but Fogen interrupted him roughly: "These are two conditions, not one."

"I didn't ask you to agree to this condition, listen to me first." Alaric insisted, and he continued: "If any soldier wants to return to the empire, you must not stop it."

"I won't stop it, but I won't provide boats, supplies, and security guarantees," Fogen replied.

"...Since that's the case, then I will order the Emperor* team to surrender to you. Remember, we surrender to you and your Ashes Legion, and we did not surrender to the Lizardmen!" Alaric hesitated, but still handed the sword in his hand.

"Yes." Fogen accepted this condition. He took the sword from Alaric and ignored the imperial general. The imperial team, who received the order, finally began to surrender to the soldiers of the Ashes Legion in batches.

"You go out and accept surrender, let me be quiet for a while." Seeing that the remaining people did not go out, the Imperial General continued, and the Phoenix Guards in Fugen were still hesitant, and the faces of Jin, who looked calm and composed, nodded and said that they knew: "Okay, let's go out, you are quiet for a while."

The Golden Mage Karim has a high status in the Ashes Legion. Not only is he trusted by Fugen, he is also a high-level magician in the Ashes Legion. He is a Sanctuary Elemental Mage. His arrival has supplemented the Ashes Legion with the most deadly lacking wizards. Therefore, even the Phoenix Guards look at him differently. Since the Golden Mage spoke, everyone stopped talking and they successively launched a big tent. Karim glanced at Alaric and also withdrew from the big tent.

Finally, Fugen completely accepted the remaining more than 3,000 imperial teams, including a large amount of supplies, systematically trained imperial soldiers, the small amount of food left, the remaining one hundred muskets, and some of the wealth they plundered all fell into Fugen's hands. After confirming that the Imperial team had completely collapsed, the Lizard Priest and Fugen greeted Fugen and slowly retreated. Fugen sent more than a dozen boxes of pork to express his gratitude.

It took a moment to break up the Emperor* team and organize it into his own army. The commander of the Ashes Legion sighed: "Felix?"

"At." The Winged Cavalry General came up.

"With Fernando, go and cremate that General Alaric. Remember to return his ashes to the empire of the Old World and be buried in Moore's Gardens when trading with the Old World."

"Yes!" When Fernando Pilazo and Felix Edmundovitch entered the tent, the Imperial General Alaric had been dead for a long time. He died of poison. He temporarily left a letter with Emperor Carl Franz's personal announcement and also left a small bag of gold and gems. He noted that he hoped that the commander of the Fogen Legion could find a way to send the bag of gold and silver back to the old world and to his family, and left a contact address.

"Legislature Commander, what should we do?" Fernando found Fogen with Alaric's relics.

"You will hand this small bag of gold and gems to the Hadrian Chamber of Commerce and let them deliver it there. As for the letter..." Fugen opened the wax seal on the letter without hesitation, and he simply browsed the contents of the letter.

The content on the letter is very short and the handwriting is sloppy. It tactfully mentioned that Ruscia is not as safe and rich as imagined, and it is very dangerous. The expedition is not worth the loss. Please consider repeatedly whether to give up the expedition of Ruscia and stop sending people to the New World.

Fugen understood why the imperial general left this letter. He gave Karim a color, and Master Jin immediately understood.

The contents on this letter were slightly "decorated" and a wax seal was reprinted. It would be placed in a large box full of gold and silver treasures and sent to the imperial court of Emperor Carl Franz. As the last "loyalty" of the imperial general "dead" of the imperial general, it was handed over by the sincere and trustworthy commander of the Ashes Legion.

"Clean the camp as soon as possible and don't leave the army here, but we won't need too long to come back." Fogen gave the order: "At most two weeks, we should go and solve another problem."

"Luther Haken, vampire pirate king located in the east of Ruscia."

………I am the sincere and credible dividing line…………

Two weeks later, Ruscia, the Coast of the Raiders, the Harbor of the Raiders, and within the stables.

Julius was working hard to shovel the horse manure of the pure blood elf war horse with an iron shovel. Because the pure blood elf war horse has a big temper and likes to run around, its horse manure is everywhere. Julius had to follow two pure blood elf war horses all day long to shovel the poop.

In addition to shoveling poop, Ryan's brother-in-law must also find ways to feed the pure-blooded elves war horses, clean the stables, and carry buckets to clean the stables. At the same time, he must also solve the breeding problem of the pure-blooded elves war horses. Even at night, he can only sleep in the thatch piles in the stables. Pure-blooded elves war horses are difficult to serve. At any time, as long as they are intrigued, Julius must take them out for a walk.

Julius was full of complaints at the beginning. He was a legendary expedition knight, the legitimate son of the Duke of Brittania, the first heir, and actually became a groom. How could he not feel humiliated and frustrated?

But although Julius is rigid, harsh and stubborn by nature, he never avoids challenges and tribulations. After the initial discomfort, the Expedition Knight will soon become an insignificant one of the countless trials and tribulations seen by a groom as the Holy Grail Expedition. He gradually integrated into this role. When recalling the revelation of the fairy in the lake, Julius began to understand the true meaning of the fairy in the lake on the third day of becoming a groom.

During hard work, time passed quickly, and two weeks passed. Relying on the breeding knowledge he had grown up with the pure-blooded elves war horses since childhood and learned from the noble court, Julius tried all his efforts. The difficulty was even Julius was often exhausted and sweating because the feed and exercise methods in each cycle of the breeding period, the recovery period, the health period and the breeding preparation period must be changed. The desire to make the pure-blooded elves war horses obedient without leaving any sequelae or develop evil habits also hurt Julius' brains.

After spending countless hard work [Bayi Chinese website www.x81zw.cn], Julius finally helped Fugen to successfully breed two pure-blooded elves war horses.

It was another early morning. Julius habitually put on a dirty linen clothes, went to the riverside to pick two buckets of river water with his shoulders, transported them back to the stable for later use, and then cooked rice with fire. His breakfast was milk, bread and bacon, and the food for pure blood elf stallions was soybeans, peas, grass, corn and carrots, and some honey was added appropriately.

As for pregnant pure-blooded elf mares, carrots are more important. Julius carefully added some salt and tropical fruits, stewed the feed into a paste and then gave it to the mare for food.

When everything was done, the sky was already bright, and Julius could finally breathe a sigh of relief. He moved a chair and sat in the stable. When he saw two elves fighting horses eating food in big mouths, his tail was straight down, his nostrils were relaxed, his mouth was open, and he had a smile on his face. Ryan's brother-in-law judged that the fighting horses should like these foods very much, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good job." At this time, Fugen's voice came from outside the stable. Fugen poked his head out of the stable and looked at Julius with a smile: "I didn't expect that you actually have the ability to be a groom."

"I will not let down the lady's expectations of me." Julius's face became harder when he saw Fogen appear: "You asked me to breed your war horse, and I completed my mission."

"Yes, you completed your mission, and you did a good job." Fugen still maintained his elegant movements, and a little appreciation appeared in his eyes: "Very good, good, as my subordinate, you must do this, either you don't do it, and if you want to do it, you do it best. This is the quality that I should have when I want to be my opponent and my subordinates."

"So, what's wrong with you?" Julius's face turned pale after hearing this. He was a knight. Could it be that Fogen wants him to be a groom for the rest of his life?

"Go and clean yourself up and put on your armor. I don't want the smell of stables in my hall." Fugen nodded slightly: "After everything is over, we'll come to the hall of my house. We'll have a meeting to prepare for the next war."

"……yes."

Julius spent half an hour taking a shower with the remaining large bucket of water, changing into the armor and weapons that had been repaired and polished by the Ashes Dwarf Craftsmen, and came to the Lord's Hall. Everyone was already there, each of them carrying a cup of hot cocoa or coffee, obviously waiting for people.

Seeing Julius come in, Fogen nodded: "Okay, let's start! Karim?"

"Yes!" Jin wizard Karim stood up, and he walked to the middle of the hall and hung a scroll of portraits on a large whiteboard: "Our opponent in this war is Luthor Haken, the famous vampire pirate king."

Julius frowned, and he carefully observed the task on the portrait. This was a vampire who looked about forty years old, with grayish white, long middle-parted hair like straw, captain's hat, hooked nose, wearing a black and red robe, an eye mask, deep sleep, and blood-red eyeballs were full of madness.

"Luth Haken, it turned out to be an officer of the Lemia Kingdom among the Nicohara Desert kingdoms. It is said that he was once an officer under the command of the Blood Dragon Patriarch Abe Wallace, serving as the guard of the Lemia Harbour and the guard of the Blood Dragon Patriarch. However, in the subsequent series of turmoil and Nagashi Rebellion in the Nicohara Desert, it is said that he became a vampire, but we don't know anything about it afterwards." Master Jin pointed to the character on the scroll: "It's him, a vampire pirate."

"When he discovered Luthor Haken for the second time, he was loaded in a coffin and placed on a human cargo ship. At this time, a group of barbarians who believed in chaos robbed the cargo ship. Yes, that group of barbarians were the Skogi tribe that we destroyed. The barbarians foolishly opened Luthor Haken's coffin and awakened him. After Luthor Haken woke up, he awakened all the corpses and eliminated the barbarians, and then used the cargo ship as his first pirate ship. From then on, he came to Ruscia, awakened the corpses and the dead sea ships in the ocean, and established his own undead fleet."

"It took hundreds of years to go, his undead fleets were growing and his army grew larger. Luther gathered a large army of zombies made from the corpses of pirates and sailors who were resurrected by him from all over the world, and a huge fleet that they controlled ships during their lifetime. Therefore, he was greedy and began to focus his attention on the temple of the Lizardman in the forest, hoping to obtain the wealth, secrets and power left by the ancient saints."

"Obviously, the Slan Demon Toads would not sit still and watch this happen. A Slan Demon Priest cursed Luther Haken, causing his spirit to be seriously hit. His personality was split into a dozen and he kept fighting for control of his body. But even so, he still forcibly broke into a Lizardman Temple and stole a stone slab with the prophecy of the ancient saint at the risk of his own sudden death."

"So, our goal is to take back this slate?" Felix raised his hand and signaled.

"Not only that." Fogen stood up, and then Karim said: "The Grand Lord Croc means that we must not only take back the ancient slabs, but also try our best to solve the Luther Haken threat once and for all."

"Where is the reward?" Habi, a halfling, picked up excitedly.

"The Lizardman promises to purify us for free with a hundred sets of plate armor and weapons with the power of the Lizardman's divine blessing, and all the treasures we seized from Luther Haken." Fugen stretched out a finger: "But we can only succeed, not fail."

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became hot. Julius thought carefully for a while, and he asked: "Where are we going to fight against Luther Haken? Also, how to ensure that this vampire pirate king is willing to fight against us?"

"It's really a problem," Fogen nodded: "But the Lizardman will assist us."

“Assist us?”

"Well, just like we know, Luthor Haken was cursed by the Slan Demon Toad, and then he was cursed again when he broke into the Lizardman Temple. Therefore, his spirit and soul were constantly looking for ways to unravel the curse in endless pain. He always believed that there must be a Slan's secret treasure that could help him unravel the curse, so..." Fugen took out a gilded baton made of tropical hardwood and pointed it on the beach on the Vampire Coast in the eastern Vampire Coast in Ruscia: "We can bury the treasure provided by the Lizardman under the beach. This treasure will resonate with the ancient slabs. There is no reason not to believe that Luthor Haken will definitely appear with his undead fleet, and there is only one chance."

"I understand." Julius no longer had any questions: "I will also participate in this war."

"If you want to join too, remember to listen to my orders." Fugen said lightly: "At the critical moment, listen to me and swear in the name of your lady."

Julius hesitated for a moment. He thought that his opponent was a vampire pirate, so he didn't have to talk about the knight's way, and gritted his teeth: "I swear! But I will not do anything against the knight's way to my fellow humans!"

"Okay." Fogen did not say anything else, and he immediately ordered: "Then, come according to the plan!"

"Our Ashes Legion will be on the Vampire Coast, and we will meet this Vampire Pirate King for a while!"
Chapter completed!
