The line was quite long. Therefore, after the previous noble successfully left the city, the next noble would know why the previous noble had delayed for so long at the city gate.
At this time, a noble had just left the city at the east city gate of Lionheart City, and it was the next noble's turn to pay the "exit fee".
"What did you say? The exit fee is actually 1,000 golden eagles?" A fat noble Viscount who was dressed in exquisite clothes and looked a little comical shouted angrily, "Why don't you just rob us?"
The Swadian Royal Knight who was in charge of collecting this noble's "exit fee" said with a bright smile, "Viscount Robert really knows how to joke. Robbing won't be as fast as collecting the "exit fee" of noble lords like you! Moreover, the price of this exit fee was personally set by the great and noble Lord Kant. Viscounts need to pay 1,000 golden eagles while barons need to pay 800 golden eagles. You can choose to not pay the 'exit fee'. After all, you can still return to your manor in Lionheart City and enjoy the luxurious and exquisite life of a noble lord."
After a pause, the Swadian Royal Knight explained, "Viscount Robert, the great and noble Lord Kant once said that letting you out of the city at such a time of war is a preferential treatment for your noble status. Because Lord Kant has to bear the risk for letting you out of the city. This means that there is a high possibility of a powerful noble would join Lord Kant's enemies. Therefore, the 'exit fee' must be collected!"

I don't have so many golden eagles with me in my current fleet!" The fat Viscount Robert had a bitter expression on his face. He wanted to bargain with the Swadian Royal Knight about the price.
"We have also considered this. Viscount Robert, if you don't have enough golden eagles with you, you can deduct it with the precious resources that contain extraordinary power. A precious resource that contains extraordinary power can offset 50 golden eagles. If you do not even have the precious resources that contain extraordinary power, you can still use the grand knights that you have to offset it. A grand knight can also offset 50 golden eagles." The Swadian Royal Knight was very patient, he carefully explained to Viscount Robert.
However, the nobles waiting at the back were impatient. At this time, how could he still allow you to dawdle at such an important moment? You were not delaying your own time. You were delaying the time of yourself and the dozens of nobles, thousands of grand knights, and tens of thousands of elite soldiers behind you!
Thus, Viscount Robert was honored to be reminded by the grand knight sent by the noble behind him. "Lord Viscount, please be decisive. There are still many noble lords waiting to leave the city!" Just like how Robert sent a grand knight to remind the noble who was dawdling in front of him, even the words were exactly the same.
Viscount Robert had a thick, wrinkled chin. He was so sad that his chin started to tremble. After hesitating for a while, Viscount Robert revealed a tired expression that looked like twenty burly men waiting on him, he gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I'll pay the 1,000 golden eagles. Butler Salia, settle the bill for this soldier!"

There was a distance of 50 kilometers between Lionheart City and Lion Fort. Even if a mage cast a Group Acceleration Spell for the entire team, the entire team would still need to travel for three hours. Fortunately, there was a wide and flat paved road between Lionheart City and Lion Fort. Otherwise, it would take a little longer.
Two and a half hours had passed since Kant sent out his troops. In these two and a half hours, Kant's "air force members" had increased from one goshawk to three goshawks.
It seemed that other than these birds, which would be attracted by Kant's power of war to make them stronger and submit to Kant, none of the other birds would do so.
Although the other birds would be under Kant's control when Kant activated the special effect of Nature's Favor and could be strengthened by Kant's rule power of war to increase their strength, when Kant turned off the special effect of Nature's Favor, they would not fly over to show their submission to Kant. Instead, they would return to their previous status.

He watched as the noble families gave out bags of golden eagles with sorrow expressions. His mood became much better.
"These golden eagles, instead of letting them hire mercenaries from other kingdoms or dukedom, why not give them to me in exchange for denar! One thousand golden eagles can be exchanged for 1.2 million denars," Kant thought happily, "As for letting these guys out of Lionheart City, I really have no choice. I can't just leave these guys in Lionheart City and treat them as a ticking time bomb! After all, it's still my guess that they will become my enemy. If they can really escape to other kingdoms or dukedom, that would be the best thing."
In the Lion Fort, on the square where the five world nobles were located, the five world nobles were still persistently sending a huge amount of power of rules to the Crown of Darkness that was surrounded by them.
At this moment, Viscount Carl. Cameron hurried to the square with a hint of nervousness, anticipation, and excitement on his face.
"Father, the latest emergency news: Baron Kant has led an army of 7,000-men troop and is approaching Lion Fort!" Viscount Carl did not avoid the other four world nobles and directly reported to Baron Ryan. Isai. Cameron reported.
There were five world barons in Lion Fort at the same time, Viscount Carl. Cameron thought that Kant dared to launch an attack at this time, he was simply courting death.
Baron Ryan. Isai. Cameron nodded indifferently, and then stopped sending the rule power of the curse to the Crown of Darkness. As for the specific matters of the war, he suddenly became more talkative. "Carl, you will be in charge of this war. The purpose is to delay Baron Kant's army, so that Baron Kant's army cannot interfere with the counterattack launched by the five of us! All the forces in the castle will be at your disposal. In addition, you will take my token to the demiplane and mobilize 500 grand knight-level 'Black Armored Knights' to deal with Baron Kant's attack this time!"
After saying that, Baron Ryan. Isai. Cameron handed a token to Viscount Carl. Cameron. Both father and son called Kant as Baron Kant, which made Kant like a stranger to them. This left the other four world barons speechless.
