#40 - Section 40
Two hours later, Allen woke up all the wolf cavalry.
"Attention everyone, prepare for battle!"
Allen stared at the calm sea. In half an hour, they would meet the ships of the Blue Moon Duchy.
At that time, it would be a fierce battle.
Although they had set out with a full five hundred three-masted sailing ships, the sea was vast, and all the ships naturally couldn't stay crowded together.
Of course, they gradually dispersed.
However, Albert was still more concerned about the safety of Prince Leineson and Princess Leisha, and his ship had been nearby.
As for the others, they had long since sailed away.
"Sir, it doesn't seem like there's any sign of the enemy?"
Marco cautiously looked at the sea first, and found that there didn't seem to be any enemies.
"Don't be careless. The enemy always appears when you are most relaxed. In half an hour, the enemy will appear. Pass the message to the surrounding ships and tell them to be vigilant."
Allen said to Marco in a low voice.
Marco revealed a hint of surprise and caution.
He didn't doubt Allen's words at all. Soon, he passed the message to the surrounding ten ships carrying Allen's cavalry regiment.
After making all these preparations, Allen walked towards the cabin lounge again.
"Your Highness, I have something I want to tell you."
Allen told Leineson about encountering the enemy in half an hour, hoping he would prepare early.
Leineson was shocked when he heard this. He pointed to a sea chart on a table in front of him and said, "Baron Allen, you are truly a nobleman with keen insight. I was just looking at the sea chart and happened to discover that in half an hour, our ships will encounter a deserted island."
"The terrain there is complex. Although the islands are not large, they are surrounded by mountains, and the islands are interspersed with dense and intricate rivers, making it an excellent ambush location."
Allen was also shocked when he heard this, but he remained calm on the surface: "So Your Highness has already discovered it. I was being too talkative."
Leineson shook his head. He looked at Allen's eyes filled with appreciation and liking.
"Baron Allen, you didn't do anything wrong. I only just discovered it myself. It seems you possess outstanding military talent and will surely become a pillar of the duchy in the future!"

Hearing the Great Prince's praise and compliments, Allen accepted them without blushing or skipping a beat.
"Your Highness, we need to prepare as soon as possible. I have already notified everyone that we will encounter the enemy in half an hour and told them to be ready."
Allen said softly: "I think the mage squad also needs to prepare."
"You have already passed the message down? Allen, it seems I didn't misjudge you. You did a good job!"
Leineson showed a smile. Now, the more he looked at Allen, the more pleasing he found him.
"I'll go and get the mage squad ready for battle."
Leisha immediately volunteered and ran out.
Allen smiled and then said to Leineson: "Your Highness, then I'll go out first."
He turned and left directly.
Watching Allen's departing figure, a strange light flashed in Leineson's eyes.
Before, he only felt that this young man, Allen, had some differences from others. Plus, there was the Silver Moon Wolf. Only then was Leineson willing to interact with Allen more, after all, his younger sister, Leisha, liked the Silver Moon Wolf very much.
But now it seems that this young lord is completely beyond his imagination.
"He is a rare talent."
Leinard revealed a hint of a smile.
Soon, half an hour passed, and the fleet encountered a group of islands scattered on the sea.
These islands were not far from each other, and the islands were covered with dense mountains, making it impossible to see the situation inside clearly.
Seeing this, Allen's eyes showed a hint of anticipation.
At this moment, their ships had stopped not far from these small islands.
Behind him, twenty mages were simultaneously casting spells.
This was the first time Allen had seen mages in action. They were wearing black robes and holding magic wands in their hands. They were close together, simultaneously chanting the same spell.
Soon, in everyone's shocked gaze, a huge, fiery red, mysterious magic circle suddenly appeared in the sky above the islands.
"Breath of the Fire God!"
The mages simultaneously raised the magic wands in their hands. Allen could clearly feel the magic elemental power around him vibrating violently.
Countless fire elements and earth elements gathered on the magic circle in the sky.
The next moment, something that shocked Allen happened.
From the huge, fiery red magic circle, huge rocks carrying raging fire fell down one by one.
It was as if it were raining, and countless meteorites fell.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
In an instant, all the islands were ignited, and the fire instantly engulfed the entire sea area.
"Ah, ah, ah!"
"No! Don't!"
"Magic, it's magic!"
"Ah! Help!"
Under the attack of magic, the ships of the Blue Moon Duchy, which were originally hidden among the islands, were instantly destroyed by magic.
The terrifying magical power shattered and burned their ships.
Almost all of the Blue Moon Duchy's army ambushing here was wiped out in an instant.
Allen didn't care too much about this.
Soon, the screams inside gradually disappeared. Obviously, the people inside were almost dead.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining 700 merit points!"
"The war mission is activated, the national war begins, and the merit shop is activated!"
Allen immediately revealed a hint of surprise.
The start of the war mission and the opening of the merit shop were not surprising to him, after all, he had already known about it.
But he had just obtained seven hundred merit points?!
What was going on?
Allen clearly hadn't taken action, and even his subordinates hadn't taken action. How did he get such a large amount of merit?
"Ding, the host played a decisive role in this search. Although he did not directly defeat the opponent, he made a great contribution to it, rewarding the host with one-third of the merit points for the total number of defeated enemies."
The system immediately explained.
Allen's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Are you saying that, in addition to directly defeating the enemy, the more contributions I make, the more merit points I get?"
"That's right."
The system replied affirmatively.
"Awesome!"
Allen couldn't help but say in a low voice.
At the same time, he began to check the merit shop that the system had opened.
"Species category?"
"Dragon (Legendary Creature): 500,000 merit points!"
"Behemoth (Overlord Creature): 300,000 merit points!"
"Giant (Overlord Creature): 250,000 merit points!"
"Griffin (Magical Creature): 8,000 merit points!"
"Siren (Magical Creature): 8,000 merit points!"
…
A dense list of species appeared in front of Allen, dazzling him and making his heart palpitate.
The prices above were not the prices for unlocking the species, but the prices for directly buying one.
"…Too damn expensive!"
Allen smacked his lips, then looked at the next category.
"Nature Spirit category."
"Nature Spirit: 10,000 merit points!"
"Fairy: 100,000 merit points!"
"Holy Nature Spirit: 500,000 merit points!"
Allen: "…Still expensive!"
He continued to look at the next categories "Weapon category", "Gold Coin category", "Experience Points category", "Acceleration Card category"…
After reading them, Allen's expression was solemn. At this moment, the thing he wanted to do most was to encounter enemies, a large number of enemies!
Chapter 67 War Decline? Come out, my sea cavalry! (1 Asking for flowers, evaluation votes, and monthly tickets!)
With Allen's reminder, the Lionheart Duchy won the first encounter with the enemy with zero casualties.
Afterwards, the fleet left the island, spending a lot of time.
