Outside a mountain ridge, a long team was slowly advancing.
Their movement speed was very slow, and their composition was also very strange. Not only did they carry a large amount of supplies, but there were also many children and women. They did not look like a specialized caravan, but more like a migrating team.
At the front of the team was a young man wearing a black sleeveless shirt. He looked to be in his early teens. He was extremely handsome and looked around with a calm and calm expression on his face.
"Looking at it like this, we are almost reaching the next city."
Walking at the front of the team, looking at the knights returning gradually from the distance, Adil said to himself.
The time has arrived, and it has been more than a month since we left the Northland range.
They followed the past trade route and walked all the way up until now. Calculating the distance, they found that they were not far from the southern countries.
Because they were approaching the southern country, some people in the original team began to leave the team and chose a different route from Elva and others.
During this period, due to the departure of those nobles one after another, the team that originally numbered more than 2,000 people now only has a little over 1,000 people left. Compared with before, the movement speed was much faster.
"This route we took, the first country we entered was the Principality of Barron. It is a small country we are familiar with and has a lot of power there."
On the side, Fular rode up and looked at the crowds of people gradually appearing in the distance, with a smile on his face: "I have already sent people to notify us. When we get to the next city, our people will come to pick them up.
, and by the way, we will settle Lord Elhua down."
After hearing this, Adil's eyes narrowed: "Have you made a decision?"
"Yes, this is the most appropriate result." Fular nodded and confirmed: "In previous years' operations, most of our forces in the south are located in the Principality of Barron. As long as Lord Elwa gets there, we can immediately
Inherit all the power of the family there."
"We are well prepared there." He continued: "More than ten years ago, Master Polya did a lot here to prevent this situation today."
"In the Principality of Barron, we not only have several small chambers of commerce, but Mr. Polya also owns the title of an earl and several manors there, all of which can be inherited from generation to generation."
"As long as you have these, even if you lose the North, Lord Elva will still have the status of a noble and can continue a new life here safely."
A relaxed smile appeared on Fular's face, and he spoke slowly to Adil.
This phenomenon is normal.
As a noble, in this chaotic and dangerous world, you will basically keep a few back-ups, in order to ensure that the inheritance continues after the family encounters disaster, so that the family will not completely decline.
It is strange for ordinary nobles to be like this, let alone for big nobles like the Farkus family to have no backup plan.
So after hearing this, Adil was not surprised, and just asked: "What does Elwa mean?"
He looked at Fular beside him and asked.
After experiencing the Northland Rebellion and the death of his biological father, the originally cheerful Elva suddenly fell into a trough.
While Adil and Fular were working hard on various trivial matters and heading to the south with a large team, Elvar spent the whole day hiding in a comfortable and large carriage, usually either getting drunk with other nobles or going to the south.
To flirt with any girl in the team, he would find several women almost every night and spend all his time and energy on these things.
The people on the team are also happy with it.
No matter how Elvar loses power, he still has the family fortune left by Count Boria to inherit, and behind him are the two powerful knights Fular and Adier to support him. For those nobles who have lost their lords,
He still had thick thighs, so when he got the chance, he naturally fawned over him in every possible way. Not only did he accompany him to play and gamble, but he also took the initiative to send various women to his camp every night.
After more than two months of this, Elva's whole body felt like a waste. Not only did his originally average physique become even weaker, but he was also inseparable from gambling and drinking, and lived in a state of intoxication all day long.
Seeing this situation, Adil said nothing on the surface, but secretly shook his head in his heart.
During this period of time, he got to know a lot about his former good friend.
The other party was just a middle-aged man in all aspects, and his own will was even weaker. Without the whipping and supervision of Count Poria, he immediately indulged in all kinds of indulgences, without inheriting the slightest ability from Count Poria.
Not only Adier, but also Fular, who had always been loyal to Count Boria, was completely disappointed with him. He no longer had any expectations or illusions, and only planned to let him live an honest and stable life.
Hearing Adil's question at this time, Fular could only show a helpless expression on his face, and did not say anything more on this issue: "In the past hundred years of history, in addition to the strength we have established ourselves, Farkus
Many members of the family have come to the south and have considerable power in the south."
"Some people have become nobles in other kingdoms, and some have established large caravans and merchant associations. Even I have the title of viscount in the Principality of Barron."
"With the care of people like us, as long as nothing happens, Mr. Elva will not have any problems in his future life, and he can live his life without worries."
"Well, for the current Elva, such a life may not be bad." Standing aside, quietly listening to Fular's story, Adil looked into the distance and said noncommittally.
The team was still moving forward slowly.
However, in the center of the team, through his good eyesight, Adil saw a girl in disheveled clothes walking out of Elva's carriage, with some sweat on her forehead.
Seeing this scene, Adil instinctively felt a sense of disgust in his heart, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed with his former friend.
"Actually, compared to Sir Elva, to the entire Farkus family, Adil, you are the most important." Glancing at Adil beside him, Fular sighed: "Bei
The land is gone, and although the once prosperous Farkus family will not fall, it will not be as powerful as before, and it is still far from the situation in the past."
"Even if Lord Elwa doesn't become what he is now, it's impossible to restore the glory of the Farkus family."
"The only hope lies in you."
Fular raised his hand, sat on the horse and continued: "The power of wizards is very powerful. According to legend, some powerful wizards can even kill a city by one person. It is a terrifying force that mortals cannot resist."
"If you can reach that point, the Farkus family can not only restore its former glory, but even go one step further. It is not impossible."
He smiled at Adil.
On the sidelines, Adil was stunned for a moment after hearing these words, then showed a wry smile and did not choose to answer.
Looking at his appearance, Fular also shook his head and added: "In fact, you don't need to go very far. As long as you can become a wizard, you can make the entire Farkus family, including me and Elva,
Everyone involved will benefit together, and the benefits will definitely exceed your imagination."
"In order for you to go further on the path of a wizard, all of us will support you behind you."
Having said this, a trace of awe appeared in his eyes and a smile appeared on his face: "This is also the past practice."
"The existence of wizards is actually not a secret among the great nobles."
"In the past, whenever a person with wizard qualifications appeared in the Farkus family, all the family members would help behind the scenes so that those with wizard talents could go further."
"Even if we lose Northland now, our support for you will not disappear. Although it will definitely shrink compared to before, it should still be of great help to you."
