“Worthless! You are all worthless!” Arthur’s clenched fist bulged with veins, and his chest heaved violently. “Just a mere Ray, and you can’t do anything about him. In just half a month, his team has expanded to more than 10,000 people.”

Arthur’s gaze swept across the court, and all the civil and military officials were silent, not daring to say a word.

“Speak up! When I need you, none of you dares to say a word. What’s the use of me raising you?” Arthur shouted.

“Your Majesty, please calm down.” All the civil officials knelt on the ground, and besides saying calm down, there was nothing else to say.

Arthur’s head hurt with anger. He took a deep breath and said, “Who can lead troops to kill that traitor Ray?”

There was a rustling sound in the military officers‘ ranks, and the hands of several veteran generals were on the sabers at their waists, their knuckles turning white.

General Darwin Greene, who defended the country, was nearly sixty years old, and his hair was already gray. He moved half a step forward on his knees, and his rough voice echoed in the hall. “Your Majesty, I am willing to go!”

Arthur glanced at him indifferently, then lowered his eyes. “You’re getting old, and the terrain of Ramberg is treacherous. The city of Ramberg is also very strong, so I’m afraid it will be difficult to break through.”

Before he could finish speaking, a deep voice suddenly sounded, “Your Majesty, I don’t think it’s wise to attack by force at this time.”

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Xander walking in from outside the hall.

He walked up to Arthur, cupped his fist in the other hand, and said, “Although Ray’s team has expanded to ten thousand people, most of them are refugees and deserters who were temporarily gathered. It seems to have a huge momentum, but its foundation is unstable.

“Ray issued a denunciation claiming that your throne is illegitimate, and he just wants to incite the old officials of the previous dynasty.

“I heard that your previous teacher is living in seclusion in Athkar. If we can persuade him to come forward and dispel the rumors, Ray’s proclamation will be dismissed as baseless.”

Everyone gasped after hearing this.

The teacher had a strange temperament and had long since stopped asking about matters in the court.

It may not be possible to persuade him to dispel the rumors.

But as things stand, there seemed to be no other way.

Xander stepped forward. “I am willing to go to Athkar in person to invite Mr. Quincy Shepherd out and

He paused and added, “As for military deployment, Darwin can lead 5,000 elite soldiers to be stationed on the border of Ramberg, acting only as a deterrent without actively attacking, to buy us time.”

Arthur’s brow furrowed; he was hesitant.

If Xander couldn’t return in time, and Ray broke through Darwin’s defense line and led troops to attack Pidence City, he would be in trouble.

Xander seemed to know what Arthur was thinking, and he said to Arthur, “Military generals are scarce, but I have a candidate who can ensure your peace of mind.”

“Who?” Arthur asked hastily.
