Six sword guards rushed in from the core city's clock tower, the nearby expressway, and the high tower below.

The captain of the Red Iron Defense Corps and Abrana were pointed at the throats by six swords before they could even take a step forward.

"Hello, Duke of Windermere."

Abrana, who was teleported here, smiled and said, "Such a quick reaction, you are truly worthy of being the sword and shield of the glory of the empire."

"By order of the Duke of Wellington, the Captain of the Red Iron Guard and the Army Magician will be under the command of the Duke of Windermere in this crisis contract."

The officer of the Red Iron Guard had no intention of fighting back. He straightened up and explained his purpose to the Grand Duke in front of him.

"Is he from Wellington? What's his name?" After confirming that the other party was not a shapeshifter, Windermere asked the sword guards to retreat behind him.

"You can call me 'Officer'."

"Love Brana."

The two responded in this way, and Windermere nodded, then said to Abrana who had just asked the question, "How are these soldiers?"

"The sword guards of Windermere are sharp, swift, and powerful." Abrana smiled calmly, "Even if the Iron Duke were here, he would probably only praise these warriors."

"Well, when we were fighting the Sarkaz at the border, I led seventeen of these warriors to besiege the Sarkaz regent." Windermere said bluntly to the two men, "He killed one and seriously injured four."

Abrana didn't quite understand what Windermere meant by this.

"The Galavar Iron Shield is not as good as the Iron Duke's Gastril, but we brought a whole fleet of high-speed warships. Our firepower and numbers were several times that of the Sarkaz. However, even under such circumstances, our attack still failed to work. The expected surrender of the Sarkaz did not happen."

Duke Windermere emphasized, "On the contrary, the combat power of the Sarkaz exceeds my understanding of the old-style legion. If this is a field battle without warships, I have no doubt that the Sarkaz troops of less than 10,000 people can tear apart the battle formation of the Windermere legion of more than 26,000 people."

"Livcarden's troops are still stationed at the border, fighting against the Elector of Leithania." Abrana followed the etiquette and made amends for Windermere. "If you mobilize for war before then, the Sarkaz will lose their regent forever."

"You two, I'm not telling you this to save my face."

Windermere said solemnly, "My troops have been defeated by the Sarkaz. The power they displayed was beyond my imagination of the Sarkaz. You must first remember this and let Wellington understand the threat of the Sarkaz."

"Secondly, I also want you to take the Sarkaz seriously." Windermere raised his sword, "We must take down the 'Royal Court Covenant'."

"During the crisis contract, we will completely obey the orders of the Duke of Windermere and be 100% vigilant against the Sarkaz enemies!"

Abrana said so, and the officer of the Red Iron Guard also said so.

"very good."

Windermere drew back his sword and asked the two men to sit down.

Soon, each duke sent out his men, and the attackers on the core city of Livcarden had also gathered.

"Stormtrooper 'Bagpipe' reports for duty!"

The Champion Vanguard saluted with his gun, and one of Normandy's men beside her also saluted the Duke of Windermere.

"Bellingham, under the Duke of Caister, is honored to participate in this offensive operation,"

Bellingham, the only one whose identity and name are known by the Terrans, naturally can no longer be a real 'Grey Hat'. However, because of his fame, he will also represent the Duke of Castor and attend various activities as another 'Grey Hat'.

Then two of Godoting's men spoke up, cooperating with the Steam Knight Lynch who was present, and the Victoria-Ashes Operation Strategy Team was officially complete.

"A few months ago, my troops fought against the Sarkaz army. Only then did I understand why the Sarkaz have such a bad reputation in history."

Windermere drew his sword and shook it off the sheath. "But this time, in front of everyone, we must not lose! We must seize the King's Court Covenant!"

"Yes!"

Everyone present, as well as the two sword guards carefully selected by Windermere, echoed in unison.

"Okay, take action now!"

Ampheris Windermere shouted, "Let those Sarkaz know who is the final winner!"

...

"Eh?"

In Rhodes Island, Hedley frowned as he listened to Tianmu's words, "Let me become a magic swordsman? Really?"

"Did I hear it right?" Ifrit scratched his ears, and after confirming that he was not hallucinating, he said in surprise, "Why would you want me to be a Sarkaz Grudge Holder?"

Chapter 163 What is a sentinel? Try hitting it

"Why would I want to be a Sarkaz Grudge Holder?"

Ifrit shook his head quickly, "No, this name sounds so unlucky!"

Popka and the others who were with Ifrit were a little envious, but Charmander himself seemed reluctant.

"Compared to your name, Demon Swordsman doesn't sound so bad after all." Sarter, who was eating ice cream, said, "It seems I'm luckier."

"Why? That magic swordsman looks pretty handsome, but this rancorer is hunched over and shaking like he's having an epileptic seizure!"

Ifrit was dissatisfied, "Sister 42, how about we switch?"

"No way." Surtel said unscrupulously, "I will definitely choose the handsome one!"

"Ah...that's not fair!"

Ifrit complained on the bridge, and Suzuran advised, "But the crisis contract is still very important. There are not many opportunities to step onto the contract battlefield."

"That's true. Well, forget it. Let those who harbor resentment be those who harbor resentment."

Ifrit directly chose to confirm, and then said to Popka, Suzuran and other operators beside him, "Look at my handsome and heroic appearance on the contract battlefield!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Saria walked over. She told Ifrit a few words, and then asked her and Surtel and the others to go to the doctor.

"Hey, has the Doctor been chosen as well?"

After Charmander walked over, he asked in surprise, "But the doctor is not a Sarkaz?"

[Is there a type that you are not? 】

Li Muzhi himself was also curious. He was obviously not a Sarkaz, so why did he have to go on the court? However, it didn't matter. He would go on the court to attack in the end anyway, so it would be a good idea to go up and take a look at the situation in advance.

"I don't know why, but since we've been chosen by Tianmu, let's go." The doctor shrugged, "Anyway, they'll pay us, so just think of it as working overtime."

"Can Rhode Island give me the overtime fee again?" Sulter raised his hand, "I want three different flavors of ice cream, the kind that comes in cans."

"Then I'll apply to be the captain!" Ifrit stood on tiptoe and raised his hand.

"I...should I say something?" Hedley looked at the two people beside him, and then raised his hand, "Then I will apply for the doctor's help to get rid of the Victorians."

After all, Hedley is also a Sarkaz, so he naturally doesn't want this kind of thing to be obtained by the Victorians, but the doctor certainly can't give any definite answer.

"We can't control this kind of thing, so let's just follow the routine."

The doctor said perfunctorily, and then he said, "Well, the time is almost up, so let's go together."

"Okay, Doctor, just wait and see. I will definitely make you proud on the contract battlefield!" Having said this, Charmander suddenly asked, "But Doctor, which Sarkaz will you be when you get there?"

"me?"

The doctor scratched his head and said, "It's a Sarkaz sentinel."

"Is this the battle site for this contract?"

The Duke of Windermere overlooks below. The name of this contract map is "Wind Erosion Highlands".

Just as the name implies, the area in front of us is invaded by seasonal strong winds all year round. The two canyon-like terrains are conducive to preventing the enemy's advancement, but there are strange devices on the right and left sides of the two canyons...

Windermere looked carefully and then found the annotation on the sky curtain.

[Originium Flow Generator: Blows out airflow forward; Operators deployed in the same direction as the airflow have their attacks increased; Operators deployed in the opposite direction have their attacks reduced (enemies moving in the same direction have their movement speed increased, and those moving in the opposite direction have their movement speed reduced)]

"Is it similar to the auxiliary device used in Operation Yellow Iron?"

The Duke of Windermere already had a certain degree of understanding of the initial deployment status, and it was at this time that contract entries began to be randomly selected above the region.

Everyone on Victoria's side couldn't help but become nervous.

The first entry lights up after spinning. The name of the entry is [Target: Hoarding Hatred III]

The effect of the entry is: All Sarkaz Grudgers' health and attack power will be increased by 100% and 80%, and their attacks will increase the target's magic resistance by 70%.

The people on Victoria's side could only see the names of the entries, but when they glimpsed the big red logo of the entries, they could also feel an inexplicable sense of oppression.

Then there is the [Target: Impatient III] for the Magic Swordsman, and [High Alert III] for the Sarkaz Sentinel, followed by the [Originium Environment: Stimulation III] and other old items.

Soon, the entries of difficulty twenty-six were filled up. Victoria was still unclear about what was happening, but the Sarkaz on the contract battlefield had begun to go crazy.

"The ultimate power!"

"I feel the call of my ancestors!"

"The fucking magnetic field is spinning at a million horsepower—Sarkaz Superman Punch!"

Several Sarkaz who came at the invitation of Tianmu have already felt their own power and momentum surging, while Ifrit and Surtur feel a super-powerful force brewing in their bodies!

Behind the Doctor there is a magic communication radio used by the Sarkaz Sentinels, but the rest of his attire has not changed. People like Bagpipes can probably tell at a glance that he is the Doctor.

“But this feeling is really interesting.”

The doctor clenched his fist, feeling the power filling his body. Although this energy was not as strong as the Red Knife Experience Card, it was still excellent compared to his body that he exercised every day.

After the doctor received the enhancement of the [Target: High Alert III] entry, he could clearly sense the status of all the Sarkaz companions around him. Now, if he is attacked by anyone at random, the terrible spell enhancement will immediately fill the entire station, and the magic swordsman and the resentful person who were waiting in anticipation will also attack in a epileptic state!

But why did Hedley stop talking?

The Doctor suddenly thought of Hedley. Although that guy was not a talkative person, anyone would be impressed by his power in this situation. Besides, he was also the kind of Sarkaz who didn't want Victoria to take away the Royal Court Covenant, so shouldn't he be excited about his own power at this moment?

Li Muzhi turned around and found that Ursula, the grudge bearer, and Manfred, the magic swordsman, were staring at Hedley.

"that..."

Hedley swallowed and said, "It's such a nice weather today?"

"Humph."

The two of them put on a sour face and walked over. Now everyone needed to work together to kill the Victorians, otherwise Manfred would definitely give this bastard a good beating.

"Doctor from Rhode Island." Manfred said to the doctor after he finished making a sullen face, "Thank you for your efforts. After all, it is not easy for the Victorians to get the 'Royal Court Covenant'."

"Now that I'm here, I should naturally work together with everyone." The doctor nodded, and then thought to himself, he has become a sentinel, so there shouldn't be anyone who would want to attack him, right?

...

"That doctor from Rhodes Island is actually with the Sarkaz?!" Abrana laughed evilly, "Hehehe! Finally, there's a chance to fight him!"

Except for Abrana, the others are also thinking about the Doctor. If they can kill the Doctor, they will definitely go down in history!

Chapter 164: Sarkaz Piercer? Not worth mentioning

In the sky above the Wind Erosion Highlands, the entries for the level 26 crisis contracts have been neatly arranged.

The continuously appearing big red icons indicated the increasing difficulty of the contract, and the Sarkaz soldiers who were ready to enter the venue roared in unison.

"For the honor of the Sarkaz!"

Manfred, who served as the Sarkaz Magic Swordsman, was originally a high-ranking member of the Kazdel Military Committee. Now that a large number of the Sarkaz in the contract were his subordinates, he naturally had the responsibility of boosting morale.

"Tear them apart!"

"Sarkaz will never be slaves!"

"Rip out their intestines and strangle them!"

A group of elite soldiers of the Kazdel National Defense Force screamed and roared. These Sarkaz were of humble origins and had a rather book-burning and burying-potatoes character. In addition, their average age was no more than sixty years old. They had witnessed the Victorians' exploitation and endless oppression of them since they were born. Therefore, when they obtained the incredible and terrifying power of the Sky Curtain, they naturally wanted to kill off the bastards in the core circle.

Of course, it doesn't mean that only the authentic Kazdale Mule and Horse Kneeling Tribe hates the Victorians. In fact, there are also a few Sarkaz who have developed some business in Columbia and are clamoring to chop off the head of the Duke of Windermere!

It seems that compared to Victoria's feudal slave management, the Colombian capitalists' bone-sucking has given the Sarkaz a warm and affectionate image.

The doctor originally didn't understand why the Sarkaz of Colombia were so angry, but after he asked, he found out that the Grand Dukes of Victoria Border relied on the advantages of the core circle to influence Colombia's industry and commerce.

The factories that once allowed the Sarkaz to make a living in the outer ring of the city can no longer sell any manufactured products. As long as there are rumors that there are Sarkaz employees in the factory, Victoria's foreign trade orders will be out of their reach... Under the manipulation of the grand dukes, many Sarkaz have been forced to move towards the more dangerous depths of the wilderness.

[Although other dukes, except Windermere, did not take any military action against the Sarkaz, but apart from the battlefield, everyone else was also taking action...]

The doctor thought that Windermere's army had failed to stop the Sarkaz before, and the entire Victoria was also beginning to attack the Sarkaz everywhere. In this case, Tracy's recruitment advertisement might really cause a huge wave.

What will Kazdel do next? There is no need to consider the failure of the exam and the beer hall. The Capitol arson case ended with the beheading of Theresa a few years ago. The entire Kazdel has been taken over by Tresis's military committee, and the power of the kings' courts is also gathering. Will Tresis's next plan skip "Danzig or War" and directly invade Syracuse?

The doctor thought so with evil humor, and then became puzzled about the actions of Duke Victoria.

Although the sky curtain revealed the scene of Londinium being occupied by the Sarkaz, it was just a mention and there was no actual tragedy scene. It was almost impossible for the dukes to get carried away for a while, so the overall oppression of the Sarkaz people was reached after careful consideration... Do they really think that there is any benefit in doing so?
