It was Li Cheng who had brought in over a million troops and forcefully conquered their heavily guarded capital in less than an hour.

Naturally, they felt a wave of fear. Their greatest enemy suddenly became the First Duke of the kingdom?

As a result, everyone present was a little confused. Li Cheng did not stand up at the ceremony and immediately sat to the left of Queen Lena.

Queen Lena's eyes swept across the crowd and said, “Alright, all the generals and nobles have arrived. What do you have to say?”

In an instant, the entire meeting room became silent. Everyone looked at each other, not wanting to be the first to step out.

A general who was guarding the city stood up and said, “Your Highness, our losses during this battle are very heavy. The city walls in the south were almost completely destroyed and could no longer be used.

“Ninety percent of defense buildings have been destroyed, sixty percent of production buildings have been destroyed, and the population has been reduced by half!”

Hearing this, everyone breathed in a breath of cold air. This was only the result of an hour-long battle. If they fought for another hour, the population of Hindley City would be completely wiped out.

Li Cheng scratched his face. He tried his best to control it. Otherwise, with Li Cheng's three trillion troops and frightening skills, they would probably be able to kill everyone within half an hour if they really aimed to decimate the population.

Some generals immediately stood up and said anxiously, “Your Majesty, our defensive structures and city walls are a legacy left behind by the late king. Currently, the warehouse only had thirty units left. ”

“And that defense structure is all Epic grade!”

“What about our city defense? If Witch City were to attack at this time, we wouldn't be able to defend ourselves at all!”

Everyone's gazes turned to Queen Lena as they remained silent. This is also a test for the new queen.

If he could not even solve this small matter well, it was inevitable for them to hide unfaithfulness.

Although Lena pretended to be serious and calm, she was only an 18 year old girl. He looked calm on the surface, but Li Cheng could see that his little hand under the table was clenched. It's clear that he's confused.

When he saw this, Li Cheng rolled his eyes. Why isn't Ella here to save the situation?

However, since she was here, she naturally would not let Lena be bullied by these nobles.

Li Cheng immediately sneered. Wasn't it just a Mythical-class city wall and some Epic-class defense buildings?

Judging from his tone of voice, these things seemed to be extremely powerful and precious. They even claimed that they were legacies left behind by the late king, making him seem like a family heirloom. Are they ashamed of their weaknesses?

Thinking of this, Li Cheng simply said, “Let me fix it.

“I will turn the city wall into an Immortal-grade wall. The defensive equipment would at least have a Mythical level. Let's start with a hundred thousand gates.”

Li Cheng's light words reached everyone's ears. They were going to use materials from the Kent Kingdom, so he did not feel any heartache at all.

Hearing Li Cheng's words, everyone present was stunned as they all breathed in a breath of cold air.

The eternal city walls? A mythical level defense facility? 100,000 of them? Was he joking with the people present?

Seeing Li Cheng speak up, Lena heaved a sigh of relief. He asked, “Does anyone have anything else to say?”

At this moment, the nobles and generals were all silent.

Li Cheng said, “Your Majesty, regarding the crusade against Zerg, I will report it to the nine great temples and launch the Holy War.

“However, I am worried that the problem of two princes colluding with Zerg cannot be hidden anymore ..”

Hearing Li Cheng's words, everyone's eyelids twitched. He blamed both princes!

As for Li Cheng, he could even begin to manipulate his impression, saying that he sent troops to repel Zerg.

Regarding Li Cheng's words, everyone present did not express any objections. To be able to sit here, they were all smart people. Who would dare to offend the all-powerful Grand Duke for the sake of two dead people? They'll just ask for it!

“Do as Grand Duke says.” Lena looked at Li Cheng and paused for a moment before saying, “Also, the Netherworld Grand Duke can call me by my name. No need to be so polite. ”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone felt a wave of shock in their hearts. They all wonder the same thing. What is the relationship between the Netherworld and Queen Lena?

After saying this, the rest of the meeting was rather boring. The issues discussed are basically post-disaster reconstruction and the resources needed. After all, the Kingdom of Kent is one of the seven great empires of mankind. Therefore, they still had a backup of the resources.

In addition to Li Cheng being present, the nobles also stated that they could use a portion of their own resources. After that, there wasn't much more that Li Cheng had to do.

Finally, an Earl suddenly said, “Your Majesty, our country must have a legitimate heir. You have reached the age of marriage, so your marriage can also be put on the agenda. ”

Queen Lena's slender eyebrows soared. He took a deep breath and looked at Li Cheng. Then, he said, “Don't worry about that. I have my own arrangements for my wedding.”

Hearing this, the hearts of all the nobles churned again. Even a fool could see what Lena meant.

Hearing Lena's words, Li Cheng was slightly stunned.

When decided? Why didn't he realize it?

Since this was Lena's first official meeting, Li Cheng couldn't directly reveal what was on his mind, so he could only keep quiet.

The contents of the next meeting were all varied, but the main goal was to rebuild the empire, so the meeting ended very quickly.

Seeing that the meeting had been dissolved, Lena quietly sighed in relief. Then, he stood up and said, “Grand Duke Netherworld, let's go. Come back to the palace with me.”

At this moment, Li Cheng asked a question in his mind. “When are we engaged?”

Seeing Li Cheng's reaction, Lena did not explain anything. Instead, he looked at her coldly and asked, “Grand Duke Netherworld, will you allow me to marry someone else?”

Li Cheng was silent.
