For a newly established Knights' Hall to attract low-level knights, it first had to offer benefits worth their while.
As long as they joined the Flame Demon Knights' Hall, they would receive a set of Magic Mechanical Armor worth nearly 1,000 Magic Coins. This benefit might not hold much appeal for Level-3 Sky Knights, but it was quite attractive to Level-1 and Level-2 Knights.
Especially for ordinary knights who had just advanced to Level 1, the Civilization War posed an enormous threat to their lives. Who knew how many dangers this set of Magic Mechanical Armor, obtained in advance, could spare them from?
Providing the Magic Mechanical Armor had been Saine's suggestion to Xia Ya.
Only someone as "wealthy and overbearing" as Saine could do something like this.
Ordinary newly advanced Level-4 Knights were still struggling to repay their cultivation resource expenses and Knights' Hall loans. How could they possibly take out several million Magic Coins for these sorts of benefits?
In the end, Saine and the others spent a total of ninety-six million Magic Coins in the City of Steel.
The Level-5 mechanic Babbage had indeed secured a considerable discount for Saine and the others. At the original price, it might have reached one hundred and twenty million Magic Coins.
The Space Fortresses and Light Prism Fortresses were mainly what cost so much. Even War Airships were several notches more expensive than when Saine had bought them in his day.
Lunna's Space Fortress cost Saine thirty-two million Magic Coins.
Xia Ya's was slightly cheaper, but even after the discount, it still cost nearly twenty-seven million Magic Coins.
Such a crushing burden was truly not something an ordinary newly advanced Level-4 powerhouse could bear.
No wonder Wizard Civilization offered so many Holy Tower basic loans, Holy Tower development and construction
