[3: The Rusted Sword Knight's Lament: In the depths of the grimy Lower City District's Broken Sword Tavern, every night the sound of metal clashing emanates from the cellar. This is the sound of Rusted Sword Knight Algernon training, who wears a mask of shame daily, serving as the tavern's bouncer to expel rowdy mercenaries. However, he once served as Deputy Corps Commander of the Marle Castle Glory Heavy Armor Infantry Corps and was framed after exposing the commander's embezzlement, with his tongue cut out. Since then, his reputation has been tarnished, and a cloud hangs over his mind. He vows to forge a Blade of Truth that can sever the lies of the nobility to clear his name. If you provide him with enough Star Meteorite Iron and assist with the final quenching (requiring the blood of the Chief of Administration), he will join your ranks with the awakened Sin-Slaying Greatsword. Each time he uses it to strike down the corrupt or chaos cultists, a blood-red inscription will appear on the sword. When the inscription covers the blade, Algernon will immediately receive a Divine Grace infusion, his strength elevating one tier until reaching that of a Chosen One.]

[4: Ample Bounty: The Ratman Divine Chosen Assassin, Flayer Quigley, notorious for his elusive and cruel deeds, has committed numerous atrocities in Marle Castle, including assassinating the City's Minister of Finance in a heavily fortified residence, disguising himself as a dwarf clown to enter a banquet and poisoning the wine with Dimension Stone poison gland, causing 39 nobles and wealthy merchants to suffer body rot and skin erosion, as well as slaughtering an entire village outside the city and flaying the inhabitants as trophies. Thirteen forces, including the Flame Sun Knight Order, Iron Oath Knight Order, City Guard Army, Government Hall, and Golden Commerce Association, have placed a bounty, now reaching 6869 Golden Crowns! However, these bounty hunters cannot imagine that this Ratman Divine Chosen reclines openly in the granary of the Rat Catcher Headquarters, where he will, at noon today, sun-dry all his trophies – 376 human skins – on the warehouse lawn. The best strategy is to surprise him with a fierce griffin knight descending violently from the sky, as his combat power mainly stems from surprise attacks, and in frontal combat, he is of little consequence. Bringing his head to the Flame Sun Knight Order headquarters will earn you tremendous respect and favor.]

[5: Rare Treasures in the Auction: The Krankenfield Auction House has acquired a Dream Weaver Mask, which will join this auction's list. The Dream Weaver Mask is merely a toy of the Sadistic Desire Demon, allowing the wearer to transform into any beautiful appearance they desire (a common ability of the Sadistic Desire Demons, appearing as handsome men and beautiful women to mortals). The mask itself is worthless, but the jewelry box containing it is an extremely powerful Holy Relic of Glory, Dawn Secret Box, an artifact of Reya. Used by priests of the Reya Church, it can beseech Reya to summon a Natural Spirit and command it to obey until sunset or sunrise. The priest must concentrate on a natural landscape where a spirit can reside, such as a farm, pool, or bramble patch. If the divine magic succeeds, the spirit will appear and, in Reya's name, execute a task. The spirit's understanding of requests is very literal, and the caster's requests must not violate Reya's doctrines. Assigned tasks may include spying on others on behalf of a priestess, harassing intruders in the spirit's domain, or finding a lost item nearby. (Due to Reya's praise for generosity and opposition to indulgence and greed, this effect can be used once per cycle)]

[6: Treasures in the Library: In the Doctrine Zone of the fourth floor of the Fiery Sun Religious Library at the Flame Sun Knight Order's location, there is a Fiery Sun Canon with a metal cover of the Golden Sun Emblem, recording the goddess's myths and daily prayers. This book should shine with gold brilliance. However, the people of the Fiery Sun Church overvalued this book, causing it to lose the chance to gain true Divine Grace in sunlight. Then, a devout Fiery Sun Goddess follower, after reading and praying, can receive the Sun Goddess's Divine Grace blessing, with a slight increase in strength.]

[7: Dwarf Rune Rubbing: At the edge of the East City region of Marle Castle is the Dwarf Community, and at the base of Arrow Tower No.13 in the East City District is the trial ground for Dwarf Rune Artisans. By striking in the order of "rune-rubbing" on the tower, you can obtain a Rune Rubbing. Affixing it to a weapon temporarily grants an armor-penetrating effect (it won't be less than two-tenths). If the user has Dwarf Barley Beer heritage and drinks more than three cups of dwarf barley beer, the rubbing will be permanently enhanced to a Dwarf Cutting Rune, which was originally made for dwarf miners but can easily smash through an enemy's most impregnable armor. However, the rubbing will consume a dwarf's lifespan, and each solidification will drain more than one's lifetime by a tenth. (How to persuade dwarves to consume a tenth of their lifespan regularly to make many refined-level weapons tests your wisdom)] 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

[8: Wandering Child's Underground Treasure: In the sewer junction at West City, offer a loaf of honey bread to a local urchin, and he will lead you to the intersection of the sewers after crawling 20 meters you'll find a giant iron chest. Inside lies the treasure hidden by the Rusted Anchor Pirate Group, containing their loot from plundering the Golden Dawn Trade Team, including the rare level ring, Ring of Verena's Righteous Judgment, along with exotic spices and deep-sea specialties weighing over 30 pounds.]

[9: Chaotic Manuscript of the Old Bookseller: In the upper floor of the Scholar District's Raven & Ink Bookstore, the owner grumbles about being missing page 77 from the Imperial Herbal Atlas, offers 20 Golden Crowns to enter the secret chamber. The shelf labeled 'Customs of the Provinces within the Empire' has a powerful manuscript containing the corrupt brass warriors, allowing them to become Chaotic Demons when exposed to strong Rat People soldiers. Defeat such evil and filthy Chaos Demons, and the Shalya Church in Hesse Territory will immediately sense a Divine Grace, enabling the creation of a powerful Tears of Mercy potion.]

[10: The Inevitably Rising Legend: In Marle Castle, within the new group of captured slaves acquired from the Dark Ark, Sulande raided a certain elf altar and took prisoners. Now, among this batch is a half-elf girl named Selanweir Yisraeli, Twin Tears, Shadow Song, possessing a unique bloodline of Ice and Snow Valkyrie, destined for legendary level unless she perishes prematurely!]

At first, Su Li was relaxed and lazy, holding Hilude with her whole body relaxed, with no intention of getting out of bed.

But after reading the last line of intelligence, his body lit up, tight and tense like a drum, his heart pounding loudly. He felt a rush of blood, and his entire body seemed to ignite.

He suddenly forgot all about morning exercise, leaping from the quilt energetically, laughing with excitement: "My love, wake up quickly, we have to act immediately!

President Roger had already told them that they had received a new batch of slaves from the Dark Ark, saying they were captives from a Dark Elf raid on an elf altar.

Who could have guessed the potential of these people would be so high!

A seed of the legendary level!

Su Li's face was beaming with joy, as even Hilude, such a powerful Divine Chosen Knight, was only constantly exploring and testing the legendary tier without being able to guarantee to enter it.

But this half-elf named Selanweir Yisraeli, Twin Tears, Shadow Song possesses the bloodline of the Ice and Snow Valkyrie and is certain to grow into a legend!

This means that as long as Hesse Province stabilizes and develops further, it is certain to become a significant power, reaching at least a Duke-level territory in his view.

If Hilude and Oerstein received a Divine Grace infusion, forcing a breakthrough to the legendary tier, then with three Legendary Knights at his command, Su Li could truly challenge the position of Elector.

Rescue Philis is no longer an insurmountable challenge.

Saving Philis is no longer an insurmountable challenge.

He could secure two electoral votes, ensuring his path to ascension as emperor. Even if he cannot claim the throne in the first election, he could trade votes to gain considerable influence for a future bid.
