Looking at the attributes of Shikoti's incarnation, Leo nodded slightly.

The fourth-level warriors were indeed powerful, with all three dimensions above 20 points, and they also possessed a large number of magical skills that looked rare.

If Leo and Miss Shikoti were to deal with this woman head-on, it would surely be a tough battle.

In this way, those men in black who appeared out of nowhere actually helped him a lot.

"Master, what should we do next?"

"Send the signal, mission accomplished."

"OK……"

Fireworks shot up into the sky. Leo walked out of the city lord's palace and looked at the torches that suddenly lit up outside the Winter City.

That was the Black Knights' response to them.

Viscount Carter and his warriors had already taken control of the rest of the command posts in the city lord's palace.

After losing their command, the night demons in Winter City fell into chaos.

This battle was won by humans.

After making great sacrifices.

Leo looked out from the city lord's palace and saw that the fountain in the Civic Square was not gushing out clear water, but scarlet blood.

The hill of corpses lying beside the fountain were once living lives three days ago.

Their deaths were caused by both the invasion of the Night Demons and the failure of their rulers.

Perhaps this death could have been avoided, but between the happiness of the people and victory in the war, who can tell which side the scale will tilt towards?

"This is a human being, Shikoti."

"What's wrong, Master?"

"Nothing..." Leo shook his head and walked down the city wall.

It was cold, and he wanted to drink some wine to warm himself up.

The one-sided war soon ended.

Since there is no commander giving orders, the night demons in Winter City are leaderless, but have to face the strongest army and commander in the North.

The outcome of the war is predictable.

It was a one-sided massacre.

Nearly five thousand Night Demon guards, except for a few undercover agents, were all killed and buried alive, leaving no one alive.

"This is to comfort our people." Duke Telsk stood outside the pit, listening to the howls of the night demons, admiring their performance buried under the frozen soil, and pouring liquor on the ground.

Leo watched the scene quietly without saying a word.

"King of the North." Several undercover Night Demons bowed beside the Duke and said, "We have done what we promised you. Please fulfill your promise and leave us a small area inside the Marian Wall for the Night Demons to cultivate and reproduce."

These undercover Night Demons are not ordinary Night Demon soldiers, but priests and nobles.

What they had in common was that they were all relatively old and had fought many wars with the Duke of Telsk.

Of course, keep fighting after repeated failures.

They are not hawks like Calvaro who advocate war with the North, but doves who advocate peace.

In their eyes, the King of the North is an invincible god of war. Rather than betting everything on victory in the war, it is better to use the lives of the war-loving Night Demons in exchange for the continuation of the tribe.

If it weren't for them, Duke Telsk would have no way of controlling the Night Devil's every move.

"Of course, don't worry. After the war is over, we will give you all the North you want." The old duke stroked his beard proudly: "Not only that, we will also accept you and make you a part of the North."

"You don't have to go back to this bitter cold dark place."

Hearing this, several Night Demon undercovers looked at each other and were overjoyed: "Thank you very much for the reward, Duke! We will contact the brothers in Calvaro right away and help the Duke find an opportunity to deal with him!"

"Well, I'll trouble you then. Now, take a rest. It must be very uncomfortable to watch your compatriots being killed here."

"..." The Night Demon undercover agents were silent, looked at each other with bitter smiles, and after hesitating for a moment, they still said nothing and left.

But the Duke also noticed their hesitation.

"Leo!"

A cry came from behind them, and Miss Karen rushed over in a hurry, almost bumping into the Night Demon undercover.

After nodding slightly, she hurried to Leo's side, held his hand, looked left and right: "Are you okay? Are you hurt? Did those night demons do anything to you?"

The Night Demon undercover agent who was leaving twitched his lips and quickened his pace.

Haha, how can we do anything to him? He has almost killed all of our clansmen.

"It's okay, I'm fine." Leo held Kallen's little hand.

He felt warm in his heart to have a girl who cared about him so much.

"That's good. Really, don't do such dangerous things again!"

"Well, I'll try my best..."

"Ahem..." The old duke coughed twice: "Girls can't be kept at home when they grow up. I, as a father, am still here, but my dear daughter can't even see me."

"Ah?" Karen was stunned, then her face flushed: "Dad, what are you talking about..."

"Hahaha, cough cough cough." The old duke laughed heartily, coughed and patted Leo's shoulder: "Okay, I'm very satisfied with the man you chose. He made the greatest contribution in the siege of Winter City. You can get married after the war is over."

Kallen's face turned even redder.

Leo, on the other hand, smiled bitterly in silence.

Hey, hey, hey, don’t stick flags on us!

"By the way, Leo." Looking at the Night Devil undercover agent walking away, Duke Telsk changed the subject and said, "Tell me, how should I deal with these Night Devil undercover agents?"

“No matter who fires the first shot, as long as the war starts, the chain of hatred will always be there, and what awaits both sides is only killing and being killed, until one side completely gives up.”

"So, what do you think? Should I really keep my promise and give them a place, or..." The Duke made a beheading gesture.

Killing the Night Demon and committing genocide is indeed the easiest way.

But the Night Demons are not only powerful in combat, but also have many secrets in their blood. If they can be completely subdued, it will be of great benefit to the North.

"The Duke must have thought of the answer long ago." Leo kicked the question back: "I think you must have thought more carefully than me."

"Don't avoid the question, you sly guy." The old duke glared at him and took a few steps forward.

Seeing this scene, Leo knew that the old duke's test was coming again. While slandering him in his heart, he still followed him.

There is no way to escape this problem.

He thought about it and concluded based on some of the views he had seen in his previous life:

"If it were me, I would kill all their leaders and leave only the young and strong ones who can reproduce. Then I would let our human teachers in the north compile history to educate these night demon children, telling them that everything they have done is their own fault. They are born with sin, and they must be driven by us humans to wash away the sins on them."

"In this way, when all the old generation of Night Demons are dead, the ones left will be a group of warriors that we can command completely."

"They will be fearless and ashamed of the blood flowing in their bodies, but proud to die for humanity."

"We can also posthumously confer titles on those Night Demons who died for humanity, and provide better living environments for those Night Demons who were injured for humanity. We can bestow them with honor, set examples for them, and give them dreams."

"In this way, once they have a desire for tomorrow, they will be full of hope and madly devote themselves to humanity."

As soon as he finished speaking, the several lieutenants who had been following the Duke looked at Leo as if he were a monster.

Viscount Carter did the same, opening and closing his lips, completely unsure of what to say.

Even the Duke had an amused look on his face, his eyes moving constantly over him.

This made Leo very uncomfortable. He said, "My Lord Duke, is my idea a little too far-fetched?"

"No, no, your idea is very good. Very good."

Duke Telsk patted Leo on the shoulder and said, "I just didn't expect you to come up with such a sinister plan."

"So, Leo, you belong to more than just the battlefield. If you want, you can be a black-hearted politician."

"Um, should I say, thank you for the compliment?"

"Hahaha..." The Duke's smile became even more intense, and his gaze towards Leo became even more passionate.

He admired Leo more and more, and even had the idea that it would be nice if this man also had the last name Telsk.

That way, he wouldn't have to worry about what happens after he dies.

Fortunately, Leo is Kallen's lover and is not on the side of the Night Demon.

Leo's strategy is indeed vicious. If this strategy is fully implemented, it will not only completely solve the troll disaster in the North, but also cultivate a large number of death squads that are completely loyal to the North.

It will bring a hundred benefits and no harm to the North.

No wonder Duke Telsk is so happy.

In fact, Leo did not come up with this strategy on his own. Throughout history, many civilizations have used the same method to enslave their captives.

The essence of this strategy is to brainwash children.

Even the various religious sects in this world use the same method to maintain the loyalty of their followers.

However, for the soldiers in the North, although they have been fighting the Night Demons, they have never had the opportunity to take many prisoners and have no experience in this regard.

"Okay, in that case, let's do as you say." Duke Telsk made the decision: "After the war, I will kill all the commanders of these Night Demons. But I will not kill all their descendants. Instead, I will really give them a place and exile them."

"But I'm afraid I won't be able to see the second step described in your plan. By then, I will need you to assist Kallen and give these night demons a chance and absorb them into the northern army."

"I will wipe out their unwarranted ambitions, and your mission is to completely subdue them and make them part of the North."

Hearing this, Leo was shocked.

This shock was not only because the old duke's thoughts had reached such a far place, but also because the order he gave himself was -

Assist Kallen.

What does this mean?

Does the Duke want to pass the position to Kallen?

Leo raised his head slightly and met the Duke's eyes.

"By the way, you said before that when you arrived at the City Lord's Palace, Madam Stella had been killed and her body had been taken away, right?"

"Yes, the killers also left a card."

As he spoke, Leo took out the card with the Ouroboros pattern on it and handed it to the Duke.

He also wanted to know what the secret behind this pattern was.

Rather than collecting information on your own, you might as well ask the King of the North. His intelligence network is always much stronger than your own.

"The Herald..." After taking the card, the Duke's expression changed, showing a worry that Leo had never seen before.

"Your Excellency, the Dawn Herald is..."

"It is the organization behind the owner of this card, an organization that has caused headaches for the entire Dawn Empire." The Duke shook his head: "Leo, this matter ends here, you don't need to continue investigating."

"Your current strength is only around the fourth level. This secret is too dangerous for you and Kallen to touch. I'm not telling you because I want to protect you."

"If you can reach the same rank as me and become a God-favored Knight, I will naturally tell you what these three words mean."

Is it so scary...

Leo smiled bitterly in his heart.

He suddenly remembered that Knight Commander Lennon was also a sixth-level divine knight. So... could it be that all the harbingers of dawn were sixth-level warriors? So, only sixth-level people could access this secret?
