Charles did not rush to mobilize his troops immediately. Instead, he first took out a parchment from his system space and sent a message on the regional channel.
[Overlord No. 1: Ladies and gentlemen, the novice period is about to end, and I believe you all understand what this means. I am preparing to integrate Serene Forest. If anyone is willing to join, you can come directly to the Zerg territory to sign a vassal contract with me.]
The regional channel fell silent for a moment after Charles posted the message, and then it exploded with activity.
[Overlord No. 645: Holy crap! Overlord No. 1 is finally going to integrate Serene Forest! I heard other novice villages have already been integrated!]
[Overlord No. 858: No wonder we haven't seen the big boss around lately. He must have been preparing to integrate Serene Forest. I fully support this!]
