Chapter 597
If you return now, all your previous efforts will be for naught, and if you continue to set off, there is still a chance of redemption.

They have [-] knights, and Count Andrei is no match for them even if he uses all his troops.

For some reason, Kerry always feels that His Majesty is a bit strange. Whether it is the Oak City of the Dryad or the Earl of Andre at this moment, they can definitely do more.

Unless... His Majesty secretly knows more information!
Two thousand knights set off from the royal capital Spring City, first stopped briefly in Oak City, then took a short rest in some baron and viscount territories, and finally left when they were about to approach Earl Andrew.

This scene fell in the eyes of those who followed the king's movements, and immediately caused an uproar.

The king was attacked by pirates in Earl Andre, and the king was so frightened that he fled back to the capital with two thousand knights.

Apart from suspecting Count Andre's betrayal of the king, many nobles and citizens secretly laughed at the king's cowardice.

For a time, the prestige of the Earl of Berkeley increased greatly, and many hesitant nobles secretly made up their minds to join the Earl of Berkeley.

The 15th year of the natural calendar, March 3th.

On the grounds that Count Andre was not good at protecting the king and intending to assassinate the king, Count Berkeley raised troops to intimidate Count Andre and looked for pirates everywhere.

What made the nobles in the country even more excited was that Earl Berkeley took the opportunity to attack the city of Daybreak, expelled the city lord of Daybreak City, and included the city of Daybreak into the territory of the Ming Kingdom.

For a moment, public opinion was in an uproar, and the whole country was praising Earl Berkeley's brilliance, and Li Qing's prestige fell to the bottom.

There were even calls to persuade the Earl of Berkeley to become the king, so that the Ming Kingdom would be divided into two, with the southern part ruled by the Earl of Berkeley and the northern part handed over to the Berkeley family.

Spring City.

The atmosphere in the city became more and more depressed, and the Earl of Berkeley suddenly emerged, and the nobles and talents in the city also felt unable to hold their heads up.

Most of the people who can live in the royal capital are those who have a heart for the royal family, and they are even more anxious.

They all appealed to His Majesty the King in series to punish the Earl of Berkeley. Instead, the original war faction began to dissuade the angry citizens.

They knew that with the help of Dawn City, Earl Berkeley had already surpassed the royal family in both prestige and strength.

Starting a war at this time is just an excuse for the opponent to break into the capital and enter the royal family instead.

The best way at present is to seal Berkeley, allow it to establish an independent country, and then slowly consume the strength of the Berkeley family.

Countless nobles, officials, and knights, instigated by people with good intentions, collectively petitioned the king to entrust the Earl of Berkeley as Grand Duke and allow him to establish an independent country.

Even nobles loyal to the royal family began to persuade Li Qing, after all, they had no chance of winning the battle at this time.

Hundreds of nobles and officials gathered in the palace, and their proposals have been submitted, and now it is up to His Majesty the King whether he agrees.

After waiting for a long time, His Majesty the King finally entered the government affairs hall accompanied by Kerry.

There was no expression on Li Qing's face, no one could see any thoughts from his face.

Slowly walked to the throne and sat down, glanced at the nobles and officials who were begging for orders, and sneered secretly in his heart.

Whether they were bought by the Earl of Berkeley or encouraged by public opinion, it shows that these people's mentality is not firm and their loyalty is worrying.

Beside the officials and nobles were church representatives, led by Connie of the Church of the Lord of Nature.

Connie was the calmest of all, because she knew roughly who she really was, so she wasn't worried.

All the churches in the kingdom were present, and compared to the nobles and officials, they were much calmer, even though they cared about the royal family, they did not show their position too much.

After seeing everyone's expressions clearly, Li Qing finally said, "I have received all your suggestions, and I should give you an accurate reply now."

The audience was silent, waiting for Li Qing to make a final decision, whether to allow Earl Berkeley to establish an independent country or not.

"The Earl of Berkeley's proposal to apply for the establishment of the Principality is not allowed. Not only that, it is disrespectful to the royal family for Berkeley to send troops without the royal family's permission. I plan to launch a crusade, everyone, be prepared."

After speaking, Li Qing ignored the ministers and nobles who were still arguing about suggestions, and left directly after announcing his decision.

And closing the gate of the palace, refusing all nobles and ministers to enter the palace, completely shows the break between the Ming Kingdom and the Earl of Berkeley.

The next day, Knight Kerry, the head of the Royal Knights, came forward and announced that he would be the Minister of Military Affairs, responsible for attacking the Earl of Berkeley.

Troops from all over the country gathered in Spring City one after another, and there was a sudden panic, and the little nobles at the junction fled the fiefdom one after another.

The 15th year of the natural calendar, March 3th.

Five days after Li Qing refused to entrust him with enfeoffment, Earl Berkeley proclaimed himself Grand Duke in Daybreak City, known as Grand Duke Berkeley, and announced his separation from the Ming Kingdom.

At the same time, the Principality of Berkeley announced the prohibition of preaching by the heavenly gods such as the Lord of Nature, and instead supported churches such as the Red Knight, the Goddess of Strategy, Tempus, the Lord of Battle, and Rose, the Spider Queen.

At the coronation ceremony of the Duke of Berkeley, two gods are watching him.

They are Tempus, the God of Battle, and the Red Knight, Goddess of Strategy. The two Highnesses looked at the crowning consciousness of the Duke of Berkeley in front of them.

Tempus was very satisfied with this result, and praised without hesitation: "As for the matter of Berkeley, you have a good plan. His Highness Li Qing has worked so hard for so long and gave you a chance."

"This is not due to me alone, the dark elf gods have also paid a lot"

The red knight said proudly that the Dark Elf gods paid the most for the founding of Berkeley this time, but it is a pity that they will never come to the ground.

According to her plan, the next step is to provoke the relationship between Berkeley and the Dark Elf Church.

She even thought about the reason, to make room for her faith for His Royal Highness Romon, the Lord of Nature, this move will inevitably be supported by the Church of Romon, and eventually monopolize the principality's faith.

Tempus looked at the red knight lovingly. He regarded her as a woman, and now he was planning to return to the red knight.

"At present, I have recovered to Godhead 2, and it won't be long before I can restore to Godhead 3, and then I can create clones."

Tempus said with emotion that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the godhead and the avatar of the Western Void Crystal Wall.

Every time the godhead is raised by 3 levels, a clone can be created, otherwise it can only walk with the real body, which is too risky for a god.

"With the avatar, our expansion in the New World will be much faster, and we must recover our strength ahead of the gods," Tempus said confidently.

The red knight had a smile on his face, and said respectfully, "I'm just making some suggestions. It's the Lord God who discovered the indigenous continent, otherwise I wouldn't be able to go so smoothly."

"Okay, let's not talk about that, I'm afraid His Highness Li Qing is in a rage, I wonder if he will walk out of the Kingdom of God in anger, I really look forward to it" Tempus teased.

The red knight said disdainfully: "I have helped him find a target a long time ago, aren't your highnesses from the dark elf gods the best targets?"
