Chapter 308: The Demonflame Horse

Charlot Mecklenburg engaged in a fierce battle with Chloe Hadrian, their duel extending to hundreds of exchanges. Suddenly, Charlot withdrew dozens of steps, driving the Berserker Blade into the ground. The Stardust Battle Energy receded like a tide, retreating into the nine Blood Vortices, transforming once more into Blood Glory.

Chloe thrust forward with his spear at a lightning-fast speed, paying no heed to the retreat.

Charlot hurled a Vampiric Hand Axe!

This weapon had ...

Chapter 307: The Top Fighters of the Five Empires

The golden ram Herolf's spear technique surged upward with the force of a crashing wave, locking onto Andreas. The youngest Saint of the Black Phoenix Dynasty found his spirit, consciousness, and even the energy of his combat style completely suppressed.

Though Charlot Mecklenburg had witnessed countless battles among Saints, he couldn't help but applaud. "The old ram actually has some tricks up his sleeve!"

Charlot had seen Herolf fight before, but those instances were always und...

Chapter 64: The Eden Treaty

For the first task, Hartley had already begun preparations long ago. The current instructions from London were merely to dispatch more personnel to investigate the political tendencies of the Crown Prince of France.

Hartley deduced from the Crown Prince’s opposition to naval expansion that he was at least not openly hostile toward Britain. Thus, establishing relations with him could be arranged without delay.

It was sai...

"Another matter: not long ago, Ravelle Bank and Laborde Bank suddenly decided to terminate their long-standing loan agreements with the government. It nearly caused a national debt default."

Joseph turned to Fouché. "These banks would only forgo profits for a compelling reason. I need to know what drove them to such a decision."

Fouché immediately bowed and replied, "Yes, Your Highness. I will...

Chapter 306: Saint Rank! No Wonder Chloe Urged Me to Flee

Charlot Mecklenburg pointed at Chloe Hadrian and roared heroically, "A defeated foe has come to court death once again!"

Chloe dismissed all distractions and shouted back, "Who's the one scrambling like a rat after getting beaten a few times?"

Standing beside Charlot was a quick-witted assistant clerk, quietly feeding him lines. After all, Chloe had been stationed on the frontlines, while Charlot had just returned. Without accurate "battle reports," it would be easy for him to mis...

Chapter 305: The Imperial Rose Fleet

High Priest Auguslatin said calmly, “Saint Michael Island has been captured.”

“Since the era of the ancient Saint Michael Kingdom, no one has ever directly conquered this island city.”

Charlot Mecklenburg replied, “Oh, so stripping the old goat bare doesn’t count as an accomplishment?”

Herolf, the Golden Ram, trembled more violently at the toes.

High Priest Auguslatin smiled faintly and said, “You could say so.”

Herolf inwardly cursed his ill fo...

The next day.

Many nobles of the Palace of Versailles received invitations to attend a small soirée that evening. The hostess was the Duchess of Villars.

No one declined, even though they had just danced through an entire night. Attending month-long strings of parties was commonplace for them. However, a ball hosted by the Duchess of Villars was a rare event.

The financial troubles of the Duke of Vill...

Chapter 61: A Real Man!

Joseph strode quickly to the southern wing of the Palace of Versailles, ascended to the second floor, navigated through a narrow corridor, and finally found the room written on the note.

He pushed the door gently. It wasn’t locked, so he stepped inside without hesitation.

“You’re here?” A lazy woman’s voice drifted from what seemed to be the bedroom. “Please close the door.”

Joseph closed the door behind h...

Equipping the rockets was not difficult. It only required securing the selected rockets to the vertical struts between the wings, a process that was completed in just over half an hour.

The real challenge lay in ignition.

“How are we supposed to ignite them?” Major Fischer raised the question again, perhaps due to his usual role in managing airport operations. He instinctively considered whether any part of the process m...

Chapter 91: Consolidating the Pilots

Major Fischer was the first to notice the issue. He cautiously looked at Charles, uncertainty flickering in his gaze. “Sir, if the rockets are mounted on the vertical struts of a biplane, does that mean... only biplanes can carry them?”

“Yes!” Charles nodded.

Only biplanes had vertical struts. Monoplanes, on the other hand, lacked the space and relied heavily on linen for skinning, which made them prone t...

Chapter 304: Charlot Mecklenburg, I Want to Hear Your Screams

Charlot said, “I didn’t expect you to also be a philosopher!”

Herolf, the Golden Ram, sensed a slight unease but quickly reassured himself by recalling the successfully established magic contract. Laughing loudly, he replied, “And I didn’t expect you to remain so composed even when death is upon you.”

Charlot asked, “What about my Queen Bee?”

“If you return it, I might consider sparing your life.”

Charlot sighed helplessly. “Mr. Herolf, t...

Chapter 303: Master of Manipulation, Herolf the Golden Goat

Golden Goat Herolf felt his vision darken, almost fainting on the spot.

Suppressing the urge to crush Charlot Mecklenburg on the spot, he asked, “You lost the magical contract?”

Charlot nodded honestly, his demeanor as sincere as that of a devoted "teacher" by profession.

Golden Goat Herolf cursed his inability to use Vampiric Secret Arts to drag this despicable scoundrel out and subject him to the cruelest tortures. Restraining his anger, he said, “Do you think magica...

The "flower seller" on the opposite side sneered coldly and drew his sword from his waist. "I, Honoré Rocher de Villar, will make sure you remember today's lesson."

Members of the Villar family were almost all soldiers by tradition, and Rocher was no exception. He served as a major in the Bourges regiment and was known for his courage.

Perna watched the Crown Prince's retreating figure, worried he might be upset over the earlier dance. She hesitated, wanting to follow him but feeling uncertain.

Suddenly, she remembered her task of monitoring His Highness's health. Pressing her lips together, she pushed past the scornful glares of the noble ladies and hurried after Joseph.

Joseph tightened his mask and yanked off the troublesome shawl. He slip...

Chapter 90: The Le Prieur Rocket

The flight squadron was exceptionally rudimentary; they didn’t even have a proper operations room. Meetings had to be held in Major Fischer’s office.

The office was small, and the dozen or so pilots crammed into it left no space to spare. Among them was Eric, whose presence filled the room with an unbearable stench of alcohol and sweat, prompting several pilots to frown deeply.

Ironically, Charles, squeezed in among them, was alm...

Eric was not truly a pilot but rather an aviation enthusiast. Long before the Wright Brothers’ invention, he had been passionate about flying and had attempted numerous daring and dangerous experiments that later generations would find astonishing.

When the Wright Brothers successfully invented the first airplane in 1903, Eric felt as if a new world had opened before him. He stretched out his arms to the sky, tears brimming in hi...

Chapter 302: Apologies, Mr. Herolf

The Golden Ram, Herolf, said, "Sign this contract, and I’ll tell you what to do next!"

He was confident that Charlot Mecklenburg would sign the contract.

Charlot pondered for a long time before replying, "I need a few more days to think about it."

Taking the magical contract book, Charlot turned and left, exiting the presence of the mirror.

Herolf was on the verge of collapse. He had never imagined Charlot would pull such a move!

Chapter 301: The Divine Rank

Charlot Mecklenburg's first reaction to the task was: Why not just kill them all?

But he quickly realized that such a plan was impractical.

Slaughtering prisoners had always been considered ominous throughout history. Particularly now—Menielman and his West Wind Knight Order had already accepted the surrender of too many pirates. Executing them all at once would scatter the morale of those who had previously surrendered.

Absorbing all of them was also out of the q...

The noblewomen's gazes immediately turned toward Madame Sanberant, waiting for her to announce the theme of the ball. As soon as she spoke, a wave of laughter filled the room.

"I think it's an excellent idea," Count Debonnénac was the first to approve.

Queen Marie smiled and nodded. "It sounds delightful. Let us proceed with it this year."

The noblewomen echoed their agreement one after another.

Joseph had no intention of interfering too much in the detailed preparations and organization of the Intelligence Office. He was an outsider in such matters, preferring to leave the work to those with expertise while ensuring he controlled the broader direction.

The members of the Intelligence Office watched the Crown Prince depart, their expressions filled with eager anticipation.

Truthfully, when Prosper and the oth...

Charles’ arrival at the airfield caused quite a stir as soldiers instinctively gathered around him.

Perhaps someone had informed him, for the major who had previously mocked Charles stumbled out of his command post and hurried toward him. Nervousness made his voice stammer: “S-Sir… I deeply apologize for my earlier disrespect…”

Charles had long forgotten the incident and only recalled it when the major mentioned it...

The midday breeze carried the fragrance of azaleas as Charles walked alone along the garden path behind the fortress command center. His expression was slightly dejected.

The sudden appearance of a third "Big Bertha" shattered everyone's illusions. Victory, like a beautiful soap bubble, burst with a mere touch, vanishing without a trace.

Furthermore, Charles now understood why the German army had launched such a fierce attack.

Menielman Soumet’s heart was filled with surging emotions. When she was sent to the Imperial Navy, she knew it would be a challenging journey. She was also aware that, due to Zimourman Axel Robin, she had become a thorn in the side of many noble families who had lost their sons. Menielman had mentally prepared herself for the difficulties ahead.

But she had never imagined that her dire situation would unexpectedly turn around because of a casual favor she had offered to a junior schoo...

Sabastine steadied herself, her focus unwavering. Though she knew their current situation was dire, surrender was not in her nature. The infamous pirate queen, who had once dominated the Seven Seas, was no stranger to adversity. Even though she had crossed paths with exceptional figures like Zimourman and Menielman, suffering defeat at every tu...

The Wavre Fortress, a pentagonal stronghold, was armed with two 150mm cannons, four 120mm cannons, two 200mm mortars, and four 77mm Krupp quick-firing guns.

The design intended these weapons to create overlapping long, medium, and short-range firepower, capable of covering any enemies attacking the fortress. ...

The sight of "Big Bertha" being dragged forward was nothing short of magnificent. Designed to be quickly disassembled into five parts for transport, von Beseler had ordered it split into just three parts to save deployment time.

The main body of "Big Bertha" required hundreds of horses to pull. To accomplish this, vo...

This way, they could directly participate in military operations without additional training.

As a member of the leopard-man race, Tumisan possessed unparalleled speed but lacked strength. With Daohai, he could compen...
