Chapter 2525: Financial strain

After talking with Argus for a while, Locke met several backbones of his knight palace at the banquet.

Klopp, the knight who practiced the grudge of the dark attribute, finally won the demigod 800 years ago and became the first demigod-level knight in the hall of the Knights of Locke.

After Klopp, two demigod-level knights appeared in succession under the Knight's Palace of Locke.

One of them was the same as Klopp, who was promoted by the local sky knight.

The other was a demigod-level knight who had fled from the east coast.

The news that Locke was promoted to the fifth-level knight in Gemini was not widely spread throughout the wizarding world, but it was intensifying in the Western Islands and its surroundings.

The east coast is close to the Western archipelago, and the caster organizations in this area have suppressed the knight system since ancient times.

When Locke was promoted to the fourth level, he attracted a group of small and medium-sized cavalier families on the east coast, but those large families with demigod-level knights were still in the wait-and-see stage.

And when the news of his promotion to the fifth grade this time came, even those larger cavalier families could not sit still.

This demigod-level knight named Caesar brought the whole family to join him.

In fact, in addition to Caesar, there were originally two demigod-level knights who wanted to lead her family to the Rock, but they were retained and lured by the local caster organization on the East Coast. Eventually, they were not intertwined because of various factors.

Locke chatted with demigod knights such as Klopp and Caesar for a little longer, because he had to keep abreast of the development of his hall of knights over the years.

When he heard that he had 19631 or more registered first-level knights in the palace of his knights, and 65,776 prospective knights as reserve officers, Locke's face showed heartfelt relief.

Nearly 20,000 knights above the first level are on standby. Locke’s knight palace has experienced more than 3,000 years of development, and it is finally about to catch up with those old knight palaces with long history. (Vertical and horizontal)

This has to be attributed to Locke's rapid growth and proud strength.

Nearly half of these nearly 20,000 knights are free knights drawn from the east and west coasts.

And predictably, Dangluo

When Ke returns to the Western Archipelago and the name of his fifth-level knight becomes more and more popular, there will be more aspiring and ideal knights coming.

Of course, with so many knights attached, the Rock Knight Palace's finances are inevitably tight.

No, Billy came to Locke and complained during the banquet.

Since the end of the Gemini Wars, the Knight Palace under Locke has not launched any alien wars.

Even in the years of peace, the knight palace is to pay salaries and benefits to the registered knights on time and season.

One or two magic coins seem to be few, but with the accumulation of tens of thousands of knights, the annual salary paid to those knights is not a small expense.

With the passage of hundreds of years, with the accumulation of days and days, just after the end of the Gemini War to today, the basic salaries paid by Locke to the knights under his command are enough to buy a second-generation space fortress.

This is also mentioned above. At the moment of the rapid development of the wizarding world after the promotion of a large world civilization, more and more knights and magicians of the fourth level and above have emerged, but these newly-advanced strongmen of the fourth level are facing the same difficulties as Argus. Maintain the dilemma of its own holy tower and knight palace.

And a large-scale out-of-plane war will be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

Faced with the financial constraints that Bi Li complained about, Locke did not answer in time, but looked quietly at the other party.

In front of him, this woman with long green hair was one of Locke's first friends.

Eroded by the relentless years, the wrinkles of Bili's face are much more obvious than those of Michelle Master.

After all, Master Michelle is also a demigod-level caster anyway, and Bili is completely a third-level realm with potions and treasures.

Locke had a hunch that she was probably her first lost partner.

Maybe Bili also knew she was about to die soon, so she hoped to help Locke more in her limited life.

The financial tightness she mentioned was only because the income and expenditure of the Saint-Loan Continental Knights Palace were very close, and it was not that Locke faced the embarrassment of having no money to pay salaries to his Knights.

The palace of the knights under Locke is very rich, even if he does not mention the Rock League

The 200 million magic coins funded by Capecchi, not to mention the hundreds of thousands of angel corpses and bright jade harvested by Locke on the ancient soul tree, the remaining total assets of the knight palace under his command, after so many years of development Absolutely over 100 million.

When Locke left the wizarding world, he had nearly 80 million total assets in his knightly palace. After so many years, the money could not be restored.

Not to mention the economic development and price hikes that the Wizarding World has experienced in the years since Locke left, just the investment of Morgan Chaebol led by Bili in the Western Islands and various regions outside the Western Islands is enough to make Locke's assets go up.

This is the biggest gift Bi Li left to Locke. This money is placed in the astral world, and can even be used as a life-saving money for a fifth-level peak creature.

But I'm afraid not many people will think that Locke can have such a large sum of money, but the most dependant and grateful is the woman with only three levels of life.

Locke's continued silence made Bili, who was talking about the current financial problems facing the Knights Hall, finally stop. She looked up at Locke somewhat curiously.

As a knight, Locke's height is nearly more than Bi Li's two heads, so she must hold her head up to see Locke's face.

"Thank you, Bili." Looking at Bili's face with many fine wrinkles, Locke said earnestly.

Of all the people Locke has touched so far, Bili is the only woman who does not have an intimate relationship with him, but has almost dedicated her life to the cause of the Locker Knight Palace.

Although Qiao Jin and Danny were also friends of Locke’s former Royal College in Princeton, over the years, Bili, who has been standing silently behind Locke, has more weight in Rock’s heart than Qiao Jin and Danny—
