The marquis installed their trusted nobles and some knights in the new border city, and then returned to Dawn City with their army.
A few days later, they gathered in Dawn City. Through mutual exchanges, the marquis were shocked to discover that this year's development order had captured more than twenty cities, directly expanding the territory of the Blazing Dragon Kingdom by one-third.
It seems that joining the Blazing Dragon Kingdom and working with His Majesty Chris will indeed have a much brighter future.
Perhaps it won't take many years for the Blazing Dragon Kingdom to grow into one of the most powerful countries in the northern part of the continent.
Chris entertained the five marquises with the highest banquet standards. Afterwards, based on the lists they provided, he summarized the military exploits of the nobles and knights who participated in the war.
The end of the pioneering order is the time when rewards will be given based on merit. Of course, Chris does not need to do these complicated tasks personally. Naturally, the Jordan family will help.
······
On August 13th, tens of thousands of noble knights gathered in the square of Dawn City, a sea of people.
"Ouch!" Accompanied by the deafening roar of the dragon, a giant dragon with its body burning with flames flew from a distance, circled in the sky several times, and then turned into a burly figure with wings and landed in the center of the square.
"Your Majesty looks taller than before."
"So powerful!"
Whether they have seen it or have never seen it before, they all couldn't help but exclaim in admiration when they saw Chris' red explosive dragon form.
Reputation from Jace 2, Reputation from Roush 1...
The arrogant appearance earned Chris more than 20,000 reputation points.
He held a thick parchment book in his hand, opened the first page and read aloud, spreading his voice to the entire audience with fighting spirit.
"My dear people, thank you for your hard work in this development order. In the past two months, under the leadership of the marquises, we have successfully captured twenty-four cities."
After reading this, Chris paused briefly to give those present time to digest the information.
The whole place was suddenly in an uproar: "Twenty-four cities, oh my god."
"That's amazing, is this true?"
"Hmph, we conquered five cities from the Iron Rhinoceros Kingdom without force, and we can still fake it. You can't do it, right?"
"Why not? We have captured six cities from the White Tiger Kingdom, one more than you."
Reputation 9 from Cook, Reputation 8 from Jimmy...
This time, Chris gained even more reputation points, totaling over 100,000.
After the noble knights calmed down a little, Chris continued: "In view of your excellent performance, I will reward you."
"Profess Potala as the Duke of Stone City and Sunset City, and Confess Cantana as the Duke of Lucerne City and Jello City..."
The reputation from Potala is 80, and the reputation from Kantana is 75.
Chris fulfilled his promise, and several marquises who had made outstanding contributions in the pioneering order were all promoted to dukes as an exception, and they also had two cities in their fiefdom.
Of course, these are all border cities they occupied.
The reason why Chris changed the duke's fiefdom here was so that they could guard the border.
"Humphrey's outstanding performance was rewarded with two hundred thousand gold coins."
This marquis did not participate in the siege, but was responsible for exterminating knights from other countries wandering within the territory. His military exploits were not too great, so he was not promoted to a noble title.
Seeing that the people around him all improved, Humphrey was very envious. If he had known this, he should have switched tasks with others.
"Confer Donald the title of Marquis of Nebula City, and designate Benjamin the title of Marquis of Chad City..."
Reputation from Donald is 60, Reputation from Benjamin is 50.
The former is an old friend of Chris, who has the blood of a violent dire bear and is very powerful in combat; the latter is Paul's father, so he naturally has to take care of him.
Of course, the two of them have also made a lot of contributions in the Development Order, and their strength has reached the peak of the sixth level, and they are the most likely to be promoted to the seventh level.
Chris said loudly: "Promote Jonathan to Viscount and knight Sam to Baron..."
The entire Dragon Crocodile Knights have all obtained titles, which guarantees their absolute loyalty.
Reputation from Jonathan is 30, Reputation from Sam is 25.
Then, there were other nobles and knights who contributed to the pioneering order, and many of them received rewards.
It took Chris a whole day to complete the reward, and he was so tired that his mouth was dry.
At the last moment, he felt a large amount of demon fighting energy emerging from his body, five or six times more than before.
Finally, it’s level seven.
Based on Chris's current total amount of demon fighting energy, if he released all the forbidden spells, he would only consume about 30% of them.
No wonder the combat effectiveness will increase so much after the seventh level, it turns out to be like this.
With a thought, the system panel unfolded before my eyes.
Name: Chris Jordan
Level: Seventh level magic warrior
Reputation value:12508/30000000
To advance to the eighth level, you actually need a terrifying 30 million reputation points, and I don't know how long it will take to save them.
······
After all the merits and rewards, this year's pioneering war has come to an end.
Chris held a grand banquet in the city to reward all the nobles and knights.
The ingredients used are all Chinese cuisine, and now there are one or two hundred chefs in Shuguang City, all of whom have been hired to cook.
Chris's purpose is purely to gain reputation points.
Sure enough, the noble knights who tasted Chinese cuisine for the first time were full of praise and offered 70,000 to 80,000 reputation points.
Chris held a banquet at the highest level of the castle to invite people from marquis and above. Several new faces appeared this time. Originally, there were only six people including his father Yunado, a parallel importer, but now there are nine people.
"Praise your Majesty. If it weren't for your Majesty's help, I would have been captured by the White Tiger Kingdom." Potala was the first to raise his glass. He was really grateful to Chris.
Chris smiled and said: "You are my nobles. No matter who is in danger, I will save him without hesitation."
The meal was enjoyable, except for one person, Humphrey.
Seeing the unhappy Marquis Humphrey, Chris said: "Everyone, the war has not stopped yet. There is still a chance to earn military exploits."
Humphrey suddenly raised his head, his eyes shining brightly: "Is what your Majesty said true?"
"Of course." Chris nodded and said: "There is a strange mountain in the Shadow Leopard Kingdom. It was occupied by the evil Black Dragon Palace and built a city. A good friend of mine was imprisoned there. I would like to invite you to
Help rescue him."
Humphrey's eyes dimmed, and he asked hesitantly: "During the non-expansion order period, if we rashly lead our troops into other countries' territories, will we encounter resistance from the surrounding countries?"
Chris said righteously: "What are you afraid of? We are under the banner of destroying the Black Dragon Palace. If anyone dares to say 'no', it is colluding with the Black Dragon Palace."
