Chapter 218: Lena: “Will You Allow Me to Marry Someone Else?”

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was Li Cheng who had brought over a million troops and forcefully conquered their heavily guarded capital in less than an hour.

Naturally, they felt a wave of fear. Their greatest enemy had suddenly become the First Duke of the kingdom?

As a result, everyone present was a little flustered. Li Cheng did not stand on ceremony and immediately sat down on Queen Lena’s left.

Queen Lena’s eyes swept across the crowd and said, “Alright, all the generals and nobles have arrived. What do you have to say?”

In an instant, the entire meeting room became quiet. Everyone was looking at each other, not wanting to be the first to step out.

A general who was guarding the city stood up and said, “Your Majesty, our losses during this battle are extremely heavy. The city walls in the south have almost been completely destroyed and can no longer be used.

“Ninety percent of the defensive buildings have been destroyed, sixty percent of the production buildings have been destroyed, and the population has been reduced by half!”

Hearing this, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. This was only the result of an hour’s battle. If they fought for another hour, the population of Hindley City would have been completely wiped out.

Li Cheng scratched his face. He had already tried his best to control it. Otherwise, with the three trillion troops and Li Cheng’s terrifying skills, they would probably be able to kill everyone within half an hour if they were really aiming to wipe out the population.

A few generals immediately stood up and said anxiously, “Your Majesty, our defensive structures and city walls are all the legacies left behind by the late king. Currently, the warehouse only has thirty units left.”

“And those defensive structures are all Epic-grade!”

“What about our city defense? If the Mage City attacks at this time, we won’t be able to defend ourselves at all!”

Everyone’s gaze turned to Queen Lena as they remained silent. This was also a test for the new queen.

If she could not even resolve this small matter well, it was inevitable for them to harbor some disloyalty.

Although Lena pretended to be serious and calm, she was only an 18-year-old girl. She looked calm on the surface, but Li Cheng could see that her small hands under the table were clenched into fists. It was obvious that she was at a loss.

When he saw this, Li Cheng rolled his eyes. Why was Ella not here to save the situation?

However, since he was here, he naturally would not allow Lena to be bullied by these nobles.

Li Cheng immediately sneered. Was it not just Mythical-grade city walls and some Epic-grade defensive buildings?

Judging from their tone, these things seemed to be very strong and precious. They even claimed that they were the inheritance left by the late king, making it seem like a family heirloom. Were they not ashamed of their weakness?

Thinking of this, Li Cheng simply said, “Let me repair them.

“I’ll change the city walls into Immortal-grade walls. The defensive equipment will be at least Mythical-grade. Let’s start with a hundred thousand gates.”

Li Cheng’s light words reached everyone’s ears. They would be using materials from the Kingdom of Kent anyway, so he did not feel any heartache at all.

Hearing Li Cheng’s words, everyone present was stunned as they all sucked in a breath of cold air.

Immortal-grade city walls? Mythical-grade defensive facilities? 100,000 of them? Was he pulling a joke with the people present?

These things had completely impacted their understanding. They finally understood why Li Cheng was able to defend himself against the full-scale siege of the evil forces!

Seeing Li Cheng speak up, Lena heaved a sigh of relief. She asked, “Does anyone have anything else to say?”

At this moment, the nobles and generals were all silent.

Li Cheng said, “Your Majesty, regarding the crusade against the Zergs, I’ll report it to the nine great shrines and launch the Holy War.

“However, I’m afraid that the matter of the two princes colluding with the Zergs cannot be hidden anymore...”

Hearing Li Cheng’s words, everyone’s eyelids twitched. He was throwing the blame onto the two princes!

As for Li Cheng, he could even begin to manipulate his impression, saying that he sent troops to expel the Zergs.

Regarding Li Cheng’s words, everyone present did not express any objection. To be able to sit here, they were all smart people. Who would dare offend an incomparably powerful Grand Duke for the sake of two dead people? They would just be asking for it!

“Do as the Grand Duke says.” Lena looked at Li Cheng and paused for a moment before saying, “Also, the Grand Duke Netherworld can just call me by my name. There’s no need to be so polite.”

As soon as these words were said, everyone felt a wave of shock in their hearts. They all wondered the same thing. What was the relationship between Netherworld and Queen Lena?

After saying this, the rest of the meeting was rather boring. The issues discussed were basically post-disaster reconstruction and the resources needed. However, the Kingdom of Kent was one of the seven great empires of mankind, after all. Hence, they still had reserves of resources.

In addition to Li Cheng being present, the nobles also expressed that they could use some of their own resources. After that, there was not much else for Li Cheng to do.

Finally, an Earl suddenly said, “Your Majesty, our country must have a legitimate heir. You’ve reached the age of marriage, so your marriage can also be put on the agenda.”

Queen Lena’s slender eyebrows jumped. She took a deep breath and looked at Li Cheng. Then, she said, “Don’t worry about it. I have my own arrangements for my marriage.”

Hearing this, all the nobles’ hearts were stirred up again. Even a fool could see what Lena meant.

Hearing Lena’s words, Li Cheng was a little dumbfounded.

When was it decided? Why was he unaware of it?

Because this was Lena’s first official meeting, Li Cheng could not directly express what he had in mind, so he could only remain silent.

The contents of the subsequent meetings were all miscellaneous, but the primary goal was to rebuild the empire, so the meeting ended very quickly.

Seeing that the meeting had been dismissed, Lena secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Then, she stood up and said, “Grand Duke Netherworld, let’s go. Come back to the palace with me.”

At this time, Li Cheng asked the question in his mind. “When did we get engaged?”

Seeing Li Cheng’s reaction, Lena did not explain anything. Instead, she looked at him coldly and asked, “Grand Duke Netherworld, will you allow me to marry someone else?”

Li Cheng was speechless.
