When Xu Lai went to Lion Heart City last time, there were 45 angels left in the high-level Yunzhong City who had not been recruited.
The growth coefficient of the advanced cloud city in Lionheart City is 5, which means:
As long as it does not appear next month, for example, the growth rate of all creature nests will be halved. Oracle, Xu Lai can recruit a total of 50 archangels next time.
The recruitment price of an archangel is 10,000 gold coins + 5 units of gems, so before going, Xu Lai needs to prepare 500,000 gold coins and 250 units of gems.
I had this money before Xu came, but now I am still short of it.
There is no way, with so many Seraphs and Paladins, the advancement of the knights is not a small sum.
Xu Lai now only has a total of more than 300,000 gold coins on his body, and there are some gems, but these are still some distance from 250.
Although Xu Lai had few soldiers, these 500 soldiers probably cost him tens of millions of gold coins.
For this team of 30 Seraphs alone, if they were all converted into gold coins, they would cost 1.5 million gold, plus 600 units of gems.
Ordinary people can't buy gems if they want to. Even if they can, one unit costs at least 500 gold coins, which is 300,000 gold.
This is just the Seraph with the smallest number. The remaining Archangels, Holy Light Knights, Valiant Knights, and even Fearless Knights, etc., none of them do not need terrifying gold coins.
Speaking of which, the 100 wind knights from diplomacy were more cost-effective, and they didn’t cost a penny.
According to the price quoted by normal knights, these more than 100 gale knights would cost at least 30,000 to 400,000 gold coins.
Not to mention the price of Holy Light Knights. If these top-level Paladins can be purchased directly with money, they will cost at least 10,000 gold coins each even in the recruitment building.
In fact, during the two days that I stayed in the Emerald City, many nobles came into contact with Xu Lai, and some even tried to buy it for 100,000 gold coins each.
Xu Lai neither agreed nor disagreed. After all, 100,000 gold coins was really not a small amount of money.
The key depends on the attitude of the temple. They may not only give Xu Lai the qualification to advance. In theory, all knights who join the temple can advance to the level of paladin.
Nobles and heroes cannot join, but they can also become non-staff honorary knights.
If people knew that Xu Lai relied on his knighthood to make money selling Holy Light Knights, it might have a great impact on Xu Lai.
Xu Lai is not actually short of money now. Not to mention that he still has 300,000 gold coins in his hand. During this time, Nofa has also helped Xu Lai find the mage who can open the space ring.
For these two rings alone, Xu Laishao said he would get back tens or even millions of gold coins.
In addition, in the past two days, Archduke Aled has also been delivering a lot of resources one after another.
No way, although the Emerald City was returned to Grand Duke Aled, it does not mean that Aled no longer needs the help of the temple.
In the siege of the city, the Northern Empire Allied Forces suffered heavy losses, and a large number of casualties required the help of priests.
If it is just ordinary blood loss, it can be restored through buildings. But serious injuries such as broken hands and feet will be permanently disabled without the treatment of the priest.
In addition, many important people died in this battle. Most of these people also had tools to preserve their bodies intact.
Without the help of the Archangel to resurrect, these big shots would only be cold corpses in this life.
King Aled does have some angels, but very few of these angels have been promoted to archangels, so they are completely impossible to use.
Furthermore, Aled’s Archangel is not enough for his own use, so how can he give it to others.
No matter what the purpose, Aled would not dare to fall out with the temple.
Even if he wanted to rebel, other nobles would not agree.
Maybe the Northern Empire, which has just been established and is not recognized by many people, will collapse directly because of this.
Therefore, it is impossible for Alede to default on his debt, otherwise the temple would not have the confidence to advance all kinds of materials to the people in the barrier and tower.
But delaying it, or finding ways to reduce part of it, I believe Grand Duke Aled will definitely do it.
The temple had also expected it. After Kemel, Wright and others left the Emerald City, Patriarch Neil from the Capital Cathedral came to the Emerald City again.
Originally, Xu Lai also left with the large army of the temple, but before he had rested for two days in Avic City, an invitation from Grand Duke Aled was sent over there.
Although the hell camp in the Northern Empire has not been eliminated, the remaining ones are no longer in danger.
The Northern Empire Alliance has been formed and has no intention of disbanding for the time being.
But because of morale and the large number of casualties, it still needs to be retrained.
Once the training is completed, Aled will divide his forces into two groups to completely clear out the remaining hell forces in the Northern Empire.
This is a policy that the temple has long known, and there is nothing that needs to be kept secret.
During this period, it is rare for mankind to win such a big victory, so of course we cannot forget to hold a banquet.
The invitation to the banquet was personally written by the new king of the Northern Empire, the former Grand Duke of the Northern Empire, Aled.
In order to urge Aled to fulfill the agreement as soon as possible, the temple also made some compromises, such as publicly recognizing Aled's identity as the king of the Northern Empire.
However, the Northern Empire is located in a corner, so the temple only recognizes the identity of King Aled and is unwilling to crown him as the High King.
Moreover, the Pope has always been responsible for the coronation of the High King within the empire. It is impossible for the Pope to go alone for Aled. If the Pope dares to leave the City of Holy Angels, Kerrigan will definitely besiege Lionheart City.
Once Lionheart City is surrounded, spells or buildings such as the Gate of Time and Space and the Teleportation Array will have no effect.
Even if the door to another dimension is opened, the distance is so far, and only a limited number of people can help.
However, that is without interference. If Kerrigan appears in Lionheart City, the door to another dimension will definitely not be able to fall around Lionheart City.
The devil is also a master of playing with space.
Without even the Pope coming forward, Aled cannot wear the crown of the High King.
As Grand Duke Aled's status as king was recognized, Knight Entan's status was also elevated and he became the crown prince who was confirmed as the heir.
Now, including Xu Lai and all the crimson bishops, they can no longer call Entan Knight. They have to give some face and call them Prince Entan.
This invitation from King Aled was personally sent to Xu Lai by Prince Renentan.
Speaking of which, the relationship between Xu Lai and Entan is not good. After all, he deceived this guy into getting a royal war horse.
However, at the critical moment, Ren Entan got Xu Lai the Lion King Shield, thus gaining part of Xu Lai's merits.
Entan did not ask for this part of his meritorious service, and gave his father, King Aled, a large amount of material relief.
As a result, Entan's status was officially recognized and he was confirmed as the first heir, and other nobles had nothing to say.
For this reason, Xu Lai became Entan's ally, and the relationship between the two has taken a big step forward.
Xu Lai didn't really want to go to the noble's banquet.
However, he can't stay away from socializing. What's more, he is now regarded as the benefactor of Grand Duke Aled, and Xu Lai has to ask these traditional nobles for help with some things.
After three days of cleaning up, Emerald City is no longer as bloody as it was before.
Although traces of the war are still there, except for the garrison, no one can be seen in the entire city, and a strong sense of desolation is felt.
But the Emerald City Castle is much more luxurious than when Xu Lai was here.
In the banquet hall, the gold and silver utensils that Xu Lai and the others had once emptied were filled with the entire dining table in just three days.
Prince Entan walked in front, introducing Xu Lai to the nobles of the Northern Empire.
Although this guy doesn’t want to contribute to the war, he is indeed good at recognizing people.
Not only did he know country viscounts like Nordin, but he could also name all of old Nordin's nephews.
Xu Lai has a good memory now, but he is not interested in these people. He specifically remembered Noting because he once stayed in Greenwood Town in the Viscounty of Noting.
In addition to Viscount Notting, Xu Lai also met the Duke of Rotania, and Xu Lai once robbed his Gryphon Treasure House.
However, Xu Lai did not leave any evidence at that time. Even if the Duke of Rotania knew that Xu Lai did it, it would obviously be difficult for him to confront Xu Lai in this situation.
Of course, although the Duke of Rotania didn't want to fall out, he was really angry for a while.
Xu Lai, Kemel, Wright and others are the guests of honor of King Aled, and Rotania and the others are considered guests.
After a few words from Xu Lai, Xu Lai was not angry yet, but Entan was very loyal and helped a lot.
Xu Lai was actually not used to such occasions.
The reason why he is willing to come, in addition to giving face to Grand Duke Aled, is mainly because of Count Aini's matter.
Xu Lai has read York's letter to several archbishops, but they said that it cannot be regarded as ironclad evidence and can only be described as one-sided.
Calling Earl Aini to come over and confront him, that is not something the temple can do.
If the High King is still there, that is the right of the High King. If the High King is not there, it will take a noble council to move Count Aini.
Strictly speaking, these nobles in the Northern Empire have been separated from the original noble system, and of course they are not qualified to question Count Aini.
Xu Lai just wanted to take advantage of the momentum of the Northern Empire.
However, there is no serious business at the banquet. Apart from eating and drinking, the most important thing is dancing.
Yes, from top to bottom, from old to young, from male to female, even the archbishops in the temple can all dance and all want to dance.
As the main guest, Xu Lai of course had to dance, even if he kept waving his hands and saying that he couldn't do it at all.
However, the more Xu Lai said that he couldn't do it, the more these people started making noises.
Fortunately, the people who came to invite Xu Lai to dance were all women. Among this group of nobles, Xu Lai was considered to be very good in terms of figure and face.
Looking at Xu Lai's face, these women did not make Xu Lai look too embarrassed. They all guided Xu Lai with their own dance steps.
In the process of dancing, it is inevitable to touch and pinch, but Xu Lai does not take the initiative, but passively endures it. (End of this chapter)
