Myron actually did not want to come to the Solun Continent. After all, as long as he stayed in the M Continent, he could simply retire and live a leisurely life thanks to his position.
Originally, Myron’s plan was to settle down and study Powered Armor, becoming a repairman for it and retreating behind the scenes. Despite being a high-level professional, he was not particularly fond of fighting and killing.
Moreover, that little refrigerator attached to the shoulder armor seemed to be quite loved by the Female Pope Lilith. If it weren’t for coming to Solun, Myron estimated he would have been discussing the establishment and promotion of new drinks with the Female Pope.
However, as soon as he heard that he had to cross the Sea of Instability and collect and study unique magic from the Solun Continent, Sidney, who was originally immersed in the research institute, suddenly became interested.
Sidney’s research had encountered a bottleneck, and after discussing the nature of magic power with Your Majesty the Emperor, he suddenly became very interested in the Sea of Instability. He developed the Black Sail Engine and eagerly requested to follow the fleet to explore other forms of magic in the Solun Continent. Helplessly, Myron had to replace Hammond’s original position and follow Sidney here.
Myron was not good at commanding army operations. Before coming here, he consulted Hammond, who held a much lower rank than him, and kept wearing Powered Armor, ready to intervene if necessary. However, looking at the situation now, he realized he no longer needed to.
The armored forces basically charged directly into Domingo’s Castile with overwhelming force, moving without any hesitation or pause. Myron did not give the enemy any chance to resist, steadily and rapidly advancing.
Although these armored forces’ tanks could only be considered light due to ocean transportation and the need for reassembly, they were far from something the lords, who were still at a medieval level, could block. Ordinary militia units didn’t even qualify to take a look.
“Are you saying all the defenses have already collapsed? The enemy has directly breached our city?” Domingo’s tone was filled with disbelief.
“Yes, yes, their steel monsters seem to need no rest, Your Majesty. That I could run here is already my utmost effort,” Miguel reported, looking completely disheveled.
Miguel originally did not want to escape to report, but there was no other choice. The steel monsters behind him seemed never to stop; they had hardly rested while chasing him. Miguel was forced to run to where Domingo was located.
Everything happened too quickly. It should be known that information transfer on the Solun Continent relied mainly on running. When the armored forces were at the city, Domingo did not even have time to request help from the Dragon Church.
“Organize the professionals in the city; we will launch a counterattack immediately! Send someone to ask the dragons for help, hurry!”
Domingo was sweating coldly, but at this moment, he still hoped to struggle a bit. Just then, the sound of cannon fire echoed from outside; the armored forces had already begun attacking Domingo’s still-under-construction large castle.
In fact, Domingo wanted to surrender, but he couldn’t just give in like that. Surrendering now would mean becoming a prisoner. He needed to hold on a bit longer to negotiate better surrender conditions.
But before Domingo could issue his order, someone came in to report, “What do you mean the professionals have all been taken down by a guy in massive red armor moving at triple speed?”
Domingo stood dazed in place.
A professional knight was directly kicked into the wall by Myron’s single combat assault; the knight couldn’t even respond. Myron was ruthless, acting on Sean’s orders to capture Domingo with the quickest speed and the most violent methods.
Domingo also had support from high-level professionals, but that professional immediately sensed Myron’s terrifying presence upon meeting him and declared surrender. The higher the level of the professional, the more clearly they could feel how terrifying Myron was along with the Powered Armor he wore.
The armored forces charged into the lavish castle still under construction, as if descending from a higher dimension, and many craftsmen did not have time to escape. They stood there, dumbfounded, watching the armored forces enter the castle.
When Alonso heard the news, he was as shocked as Domingo, but his reaction was quick. He immediately brought his men to find Domingo, hoping to surrender Domingo to the invading imperial forces. Of course, a dead Domingo would be the best outcome; this way, all of the blame could be shifted onto him.
However, the imperial forces advanced so rapidly that even the professionals had not managed to block them before they were almost entirely wiped out. The empire’s troops captured the area before Domingo Castile could surrender.
In the end, Alonso and Domingo were both pulling at each other while walking out of the inner city to the square outside the castle where the armored forces were stationed.
Taking the initiative, Alonso knelt before Myron and said, “Great imperial envoy, this is the false king Domingo. He has extorted us and threatened our family, saying that if we don’t support him, we will be completely destroyed. You must help our family!”
Domingo had lost all the charm he had while discussing the situation with Alonso and could only helplessly say, “No, great imperial envoy, it was this person who incited me to declare independence. I have complete records of everything! They want to control Castile through their shadow family; I was merely used by them!”
Myron was uninterested in these two and merely glanced at the craftsmen building the castle, as they were to be dealt with by Sean. However, those craftsmen who stood there, regardless of their tools or skills, were unlike anything seen before in the M Continent, and although the composite materials were not strong enough, Sidney might be interested.
Seemingly noticing that Myron’s gaze was shifting towards the castle, Alonso suddenly slapped his forehead and knelt closer, saying, “This place is an important territory connecting the original Castile to the outside world. As long as we occupy it, there will be a continuous flow of taxes. The general is extraordinarily capable, so why should he stay beneath others? With the general’s ability, it is not impossible to carve out a territory on this Solun Continent. Our family will use all its strength to help the general plot big things.”
At the mention of Alonso’s words, Myron immediately shuddered and quickly ordered the soldiers beside him to cover Alonso’s mouth and drag him away.
Carving out a territory? Myron feared that if he nodded, his soldiers would immediately rebel. Even if he truly carved out a territory with his high-level professional strength, without the empire’s supply from the port, these tanks and his Powered Armor would soon turn into piles of scrap metal.
Thinking of the technologies being developed in the M Continent and the divine light that descended from the sky, Myron silently prayed to the goddess in his heart.
How quickly did Domingo fall? The speed at which news of his downfall spread to other places was not as fast as Domingo’s own fall. The empire showcased its iron fist for the first time on the Solun Continent, leaving the shocked dragons and neighboring countries who couldn’t even react.
And those rebels disappeared without a trace overnight, while the demon clan in other parts stopped chasing loans and frantically fled to the fringes.
The originally restless nations suddenly calmed down, and the remaining six Castile were all silenced.
