Chapter 1266: Chapter 757: The Lord and the Construction of the City_2 Chapter 1266: Chapter 757: The Lord and the Construction of the City_2 Leo Ray’s gaze once again focused on Aaron and Bard, as he solemnly said, “I am sure you all have heard that in this battle, a hundred of the most outstanding comrades had left their passion and blood behind in Cyan Town forever – the warriors of the Great Swordsman Squads.”

“Under their protection, no member of the Mage Squad, who could have been easily slaughtered by the Undead Soldiers, was seriously injured; all of them have survived. It is also under their protection that the Lord’s Mansion of Cyan Town, which faced the fiercest attacks, remained unbroken amidst the sea of skeletons.”

“With the great swords in their hands, they demonstrated both their bravery and the unwavering spirit of the territory. Wearing their armor, they built an indomitable fortress, sacrificing their lives to shield their comrades from fatal attacks by the Undead Soldiers!”

“Their courage will forever be recorded in the history of our territory and Cyan Town. We shall never forget their contributions!”

Leo Ray’s voice rose even higher as he continued, “I announce that all members of the two Great Swordsman Squads led by Aaron and Bard will be granted the title of ‘Knight’ and will have the right to design their own battle flag and number.”

“Your battle flags will wave forever in the sky above the territory, and your numbers shall remain in the territory’s fighting ranks!”

Pausing for a moment, Leo Ray then slowly added, “At the same time, we are about to expand the territory. We will set up a sacred place dedicated to the fallen warriors in the outer city to be remembered forever. Let these departed warriors witness the future glory of our territory.”

“Thank you, Lord! We are willing to risk our lives for you!”

Aaron and Bard were already in tears, kneeling before Leo Ray with the other members of the Great Swordsman Squads.

Regardless of their eternal exclusive battle flags or numbers, all of these symbolized the highest honor for the warriors!

Moreover, they were relieved that their fallen comrades would finally have a proper resting place.

“Stand up; you deserve it,” Leo Ray said with a smile and a nod to the members of the Great Swordsman Squads.

Leo Ray then slowly raised his wine glass and solemnly said to the subordinates below the stage, “A toast to the 100 fallen Great Swordsman warriors!”

As he finished speaking, Leo Ray lifted his glass and poured the champagne onto the ground.

“A toast to the 100 fallen Great Swordsman warriors!”

Below the stage, the subordinates also followed suit.

After that, Leo Ray continued, “After recognizing the three squads in Cyan Town, I also commend the outstanding courage of Daisy Sasha’s Mage Squad, which will also receive the title of ‘Knight’ during the Cyan Town Battle…”

Following this, after recognizing the three squads who defended Cyan Town, Leo Ray went on to commend the Tier 3 Half-Elf Squad and Tier 3 Werewolf Warrior Squad, both of which also received the title of Knight.

The elite squads of the two submissive races and the main force subordinates were also awarded the title of Knight, with only a small number of them being addressed as typical examples.

As for the other main subordinates, they received Leo Ray’s unstinted praise.

This included Red Night, who erected the absolute defense barrier and then battled the Nightmare Knight; Taylor, who controlled the situation in Cyan Town and killed No. 7 Black-robed Person; Jasper Richardson, who arrived at a critical moment and finally crushed the Nightmare Knight–these three Tier 5 powerhouses need no mention.

It also included Ariel Watson, who stepped forward on the square and reignited people’s hope; Elusa, who played a key role in the Dream Devourer Realm and released water during the Territory Defense Battle; Serena and Stella, who beheaded several enemy commanders; Gideon Black, who used healing magic to save many lives, and so on.

These main subordinates were also granted the title of Knight, with the exception of Ariel Watson, who was a princess, and Elusa, who already held the title of Viscount.

However, those subordinates who were not in the territory, such as Joshua, Burt, Asher Porter, Olivia, Benson, Roscoe, Tina, and Layne, had already received titles such as nobles, dukes, or even kings, and were temporarily awarded verbal praises from Leo Ray.As for the subsequent rewards, they were naturally a large amount of upgraded spoils of war.

Having completed the reward matters, Leo Ray took a deep breath and said, “Before the banquet officially begins, I have a very important decision to make and announce to you all solemnly.”

As soon as Leo Ray spoke, the audience fell silent, their eyes filled with reverence and curiosity, all cast upon him.

“That is to build a city!”

Leo Ray smiled faintly and continued, “I’m sure you’ve all noticed by now that our current territory can only be considered as a military fortress, far from being a true city. Moreover, our territory has already been exposed, and there is no need to continue hiding it.”

“The most critical point is that the Lord’s Mansion will soon be upgraded, and it is bound to use the current territory as the inner city and continue to expand outward. So, my next important target is to build a city, gradually turning our territory into a real city!”

“In the soon-to-be-built city, every soldier present here will have a house of their own, and they will be allowed to marry, have children, and raise future generations. I will establish a comprehensive system of military salary and vacation support, so that everyone can truly settle down here!”

“During your vacations, you can visit and spend in any city under my control. If you choose to settle down, you can also bring your families to live in the newly-established outer city.”

By this point, Leo Ray’s eyes softened a bit, “All the direct subordinates present here were summoned by me through recruitment orders from other continents.”

“Since you chose to give up your original homeland and follow my summons regardless of the consequences, fighting for me with all you’ve got, as your master, your ruler, I shall give you a true home!”

As Leo Ray spoke, the direct subordinates present were already teary-eyed with excitement, kneeling on the ground one after another, expressing their gratitude, “Thank you very much, Lord!”

Similarly, the werewolves and half-elves of the two submissive races also showed excited expressions.

For thousands of years, their ancestors had tried countless times to integrate into human society, but each attempt had ended in failure, often at great cost.

Now, this undoubtedly meant that they, the outcasts rejected by the human race, would be able to reintegrate into a more perfect human social system!

For them, everything that humans possess is undoubtedly a fascinating and mysterious existence!

Seeing the atmosphere exploding below the stage, Leo Ray slightly nodded his head.

Building a city had been a consideration of his for a long time.

If all goes well, with his strength and wealth, a majestic city will rise like a rising star from this land at an astonishing speed!

Building a city of his own, that’s the true romance of an otherworldly Lord!

Furthermore, the Lord’s Mansion located in the core area of the city will have greatly increased security and will be able to develop more diversification and attract more talents.

“Giving my direct subordinates a real home is like a small reward for their unwavering loyalty to me.”

“At the same time, it will give them another reason to fight for, which is undoubtedly the only way to further boost morale after maxing out their loyalty.”

“In summary, building a city is an issue that needs to be formally initiated and promoted, no matter from which perspective.”

With this thought in his mind, Leo Ray’s face became solemn again, and he addressed his subordinates seriously, “Everyone, before we officially push forward with the city-building project, we have a pressing and difficult issue right in front of us.”

Upon hearing this, the excited subordinates below calmed down and listened attentively.
