546: The Hunting Festival is coming
With Chilson's death, Lyas felt as if she had achieved some profound growth.
She suddenly looked at Chilson's subordinates.
"Surrenderers will not be killed!" Lyas shouted, and at the same time, the knights from Count Kenny's territory, who were waiting in the rear, rushed forward.
They clearly saw the situation, and they were also greatly shocked by Lyas's strength; she was actually able to kill a sixth-tier knight head-on!
They then realized that the Lord's daughter's strength had, unknowingly, reached such a level!
This greatly boosted their morale! Their loyalty to Count Kenny's territory deepened!
Because Kenny had excellent descendants and an heir, and their powerful strength was the basis for them to live longer and better!
Moreover, as subordinates of a powerful Lord, their status and prestige naturally increased when facing outsiders!
Many people, seeing the situation, threw down their weapons and surrendered.
Chilson was dead, and as his subordinate knights, they would normally be executed.
However, if they switched allegiance to another Lord, that would be a different matter.
Furthermore, many of them were not truly loyal, merely trying to make a living.
But Chilson's loyalists roared, "Kill them all! I'd like to see who dares to surrender!"
Pfft! Pfft! Chilson's loyalists consecutively killed dozens of surrendering individuals.
Lyas saw this and thought, 'This won't do!' These were all future citizens and subordinates of Count Kenny's territory!
Immediately, Lyas charged out, flashing forth in an instant.
Whirlwind Sword!
Pfft~ Pfft!
Lyas instantly killed several of Chilson's loyalist knights.
And the others were instantly filled with passion and courage, also seeing it as a "military pledge" and a chance to "atone for their crimes by meritorious service," directly turning against and counter-attacking Chilson's loyalists.
The mere hundred or so loyalists were quickly wiped out.
"Lady Lyas!" With the matter resolved, these surrendering knights knelt down and shouted loudly towards Lyas.
This made Lyas immediately feel a "high," a sensation of floating.
"Wake up!" Allie slapped Lyas on the head. "Don't get lost in this illusory false impression!"
Allie's slap woke Lyas up. She looked at her master with a resentful gaze, pouted, and said, "Don't worry! Master Allie, I know! Besides, can't I just enjoy it for a bit?"
Allie smiled and shook her head slightly.
The rest of the matters became much simpler.
Lyas reorganized these people, sent them back to the military camp outside the castle, dispersed them, and began their transformation and absorption.
Then she sent people to clean up the battlefield, handling things as they should be.
Afterward, she led one hundred knights, accompanied by Allie, and rapidly advanced towards Chilson's territory.
It was time to properly take over Chilson's "legacy" and his territory!
At the same time, the situation here was immediately reported to Kenny at the front lines.
As Lyas set out, the news also reached Kenny.
When Kenny learned that Chilson had dared to "sneak attack his home," he was furious and couldn't help but worry about his daughter, wanting to recall his troops!
But Lilita, who was beside him, stopped him: "Don't panic, I can directly teleport back to check, and with Allie there, nothing will happen!"
When Kenny heard Allie's name, his heart immediately relaxed. 'That's right!' He had almost forgotten about Allie... With Allie's strength, nothing would happen to his territory, and certainly nothing would happen to Lyas.
Just as Lilita was about to teleport back to check, the news of victory arrived again.
"Hahaha! That Chilson fellow, he deserved to die! He deserved to die!" Kenny laughed heartily. And he was also very gratified that his daughter already possessed such strength; she had killed an experienced sixth-tier knight head-on!
This made him immensely pleased. As for Lyas leading the team to Chilson's territory to take over, he waved his hand and sent a message back, stating that everything should be left to Lyas, and she would be in charge.
Moreover, Chilson's territory and all his wealth were to be given entirely to Lyas, considered as her spoils of war!
To be honest, Kenny didn't think much of Chilson's territory, and it was a bit far away, with its borders not connecting.
Most likely, after acquiring it, it would later be "auctioned off" to others.
However, Chilson's wealth and commoners, among other things, would have to be transported back to supplement his own territory!
Currently, which Lord didn't have plenty of land but few people?
There was absolutely no such thing as too many people!
Furthermore, with more people, not to mention the labor force, more individuals with knightly talent would also be born!
With more and more knights in the future, this would also be beneficial for the future military strength of the territory!

Li Wu World, Tianjing Tribe.
Time had quietly passed.
There were still two weeks until the Hunting Celebration.
Tianjing Tribe had already begun preparations.
Qing found Maple Leaf.
"The Beast Tide is coming soon. Are you ready for the Hunting Celebration?" Qing asked Maple Leaf.
"Mhm mhm! I'm always ready!" Maple Leaf nodded and said to Qing. Her eyes were full of excitement; had this moment finally arrived!
These days, besides cultivating, she had been continuously participating in various tribal affairs, earning contributions while also building good relationships with the people in the tribe, at least enough to be recognized.
Maple Leaf had been feeling a bit numb from it all.
But now it was good, the Hunting Celebration was about to begin!
The opportunity to meet the chief had arrived!
Maple Leaf had already thought about what to say and do when the time came; now she was just waiting for this one chance!
"It's good that you're ready! I'm really looking forward to your performance!" Qing said with a smile to Maple Leaf.
"Don't worry! First place will definitely be mine!" Maple Leaf clenched her fist and said to Qing.
"Hahaha! Very confident! But the warriors of the tribe won't let you take first place so easily!" Qing laughed, saying that there were many warriors and countless skilled individuals in the tribe.
Throughout so many years of Hunting Celebrations, no one had managed to win first place more than 3 times consecutively, and only a few had managed to win it twice consecutively.
Therefore, Qing admired Maple Leaf's determination, as everyone should have such confidence and courage.
However, Qing was not very optimistic about the possibility of Maple Leaf actually taking first place.
"These days, a large amount of various foods have been stockpiled, enough to meet the consumption for the next two months. From now until the arrival of the Hunting Celebration, we have canceled all outdoor work and sent a large number of people to monitor Shou Chao Valley.
As soon as the Beast Tide erupts, our Tianjing Tribe will mobilize at the first moment!" Qing then explained some details and tasks of the Hunting Celebration to Maple Leaf.
"I understand! Thank you for telling me." Maple Leaf smiled and nodded to Qing.
"You're welcome. Well, there's nothing else. I'll be going now." Qing smiled and nodded, then left.
