"Mr. Marquis Luo Lei, the news we intercepted is that at 11 o'clock tonight, rioting civilians will attack Noli City!"
The lord's castle where the direwolf was hung was in a mess. It looked like a war had just happened, and even the direwolf family emblem was temporarily hung up.
"Is the news reliable?" Luo Lei frowned and raised his head tiredly.
"The information was revealed by an internal undercover agent. It is very reliable!" his soldiers shouted.
"I understand, let's go down. Regarding Xuansiti's reinforcements and the Hanover family's reinforcements, have they arrived at the port?"
"...This...this..." Several soldiers looked flustered and hesitated for a long time.
Luo Lei frowned slightly, and secretly shouted in his heart: "What does this mean?"
He stood up suddenly and slammed the scepter in his hand to the ground. Looking into the soldiers' eyes, he knew their fear.
The port was breached. When did this happen? Why didn't any soldiers report it? Forget it, it's meaningless to say this now, but how are the reinforcements supposed to come to Li and fly over?
"Lord Marquis, we are just a few soldiers. I will help you retake the port now!" Knight Commander Ken could no longer stand. He looked at Luo Lei, bowed his head and knelt down on one knee.
"No need, Ken. Call Weir and appease the nobles of Noli City first. After all, they are the root of the city's operation."
"Let Lewis distribute the remaining dry food and water in the warehouse to the civilians, and try to comfort them as much as possible. Then negotiate with the rebels at the port. I hope there is a messenger who can go to Baron Holmulande's military camp."
"Let me go, sir." A dry voice sounded. Luo Lei looked around and saw a thin old man hiding in a damp and dark corner with his hand raised.
Luo Lei vaguely remembered that the old man was named Francis, and he had no surname. He picked it up in the slums of Danfeng Boluo. He was sent by the elders of the Cross Council to Noli, and the old man also followed him.
It's just that some people left me because Noli was too poor, but this old man followed me just to eat and drink!
Under Luo Lei, the old man had a bad reputation, whether he was using Luo Lei's money to find a singer or jumping into the clear water to take a bath, or even having a scandal of molesting a maid. Even the servants of the Snowwolf family took him
Treat it like garbage.
Luo Lei was startled. He originally thought that this sentence would get an embarrassing reply from everyone. He never thought that the old man would raise his hand at this time. This was a fruitless negotiation.
It may take a few hours for yourself, but these few hours may change the survival of the direwolf. The price paid is the life of the messenger.
All followers of different surnames have sworn to sacrifice their lives to be loyal to the Snowwolf family, but on the day when they really have to sacrifice their lives, how many of them are willing to stand up?
"...Thank you, Francis. I grant you the emblem of the direwolf in the hope that you will return victoriously." Luo Lei nodded solemnly, and a direwolf attendant handed the emblem to Francis.
"Forget it, don't you know your little thoughts? I can't afford this family emblem because of the reward you have given me for raising me all these years."
The old man laughed dryly. He picked up the kettle behind him and touched the butt of the delicate maid beside him when he left.
Xuansiti, the main city of Xuansiti.
"Lord Earl, I think we should prepare for this year's extreme cold storm..."
As soon as Jerlin Follett walked into the Lavender Castle, he saw the burly Leonardo leaning on a group of maids.
"Jerlin, whenever you hesitate to speak, you call me Earl."
"Princess Purvi will be very unhappy if you come back like this."
"Xiao Xun? Let's wait until she comes back. Should I find a husband for Xiao Xun? She is almost eighteen years old." Leonardo scratched his head.
"Princess Purvi will kill you. At least I don't want to change my master yet." Jielin lowered his eyebrows, his tone still so respectful.
"Hahaha, Jerlin, you are always so honest." Leonardo dismissed the maid, and he straightened up, and his extravagant and exaggerated look completely disappeared.
"About the Snowwolf Marquis' request for support..."
"Not going."
"Sir, don't make trouble."
"No."
"Sir, are you a child?"
"No." Leonardo waved his hand easily.
"No matter how many people die in Norway, what does it have to do with me? Jielin, although you are a Norwegian, I hope you really know one thing."
Leonardo's expression became strange and gloomy: "The Norwegians should provide a living environment for the citizens of Xuansti. The construction of the Winter Fortress has been completed, and the Norwegians are no longer meaningful to us. They will die more and more."
The more, the more favorable this extreme cold storm will be for us."
"I'm tired, you go down. Oh, remember Xiaoxun's gift, after all, I am a father."
Jie Lin nodded, his expression did not change at all, it was still as respectful as it was at the beginning.
Snowland, Linglan.
The entire Far North has another name, Snowland. The Duke of Snowland has been in charge of the Far North for a hundred years, and the name of Hanover even intimidated Ye Kelan.
As one of the four major surnames, Hanover has always been at the top in coldness and cruelty. Their newborn babies must be put outdoors in sub-zero temperatures, and all the tribesmen of this branch will watch.
Only those babies that survive for more than an hour can be given the surname Hanover, and the rest can only live as servants for their entire lives.
Even if you are the son of the patriarch, there is no exception.
Iron Branch Castle.
"I remember, don't come to me if it's not particularly important."
"This is a request for help from Nori, Lord Duke, what do you mean?"
"Go away." The Duke of Hanover didn't even raise his eyes.
"Understood."
Yinlai Sea, Yinlai Strait.
"Can the little girl drink?"
"..."
"Is the little girl mute?"
"..."
Isaac looked depressingly at the girl in the white hood sitting with him on the ruins of the ship. No matter how he showed kindness, the girl looked disgusted... No, she didn't even show her face!
Forget it, let's figure out how to leave by ourselves. Isaac sighed and drank the red wine he found from the ship in one gulp.
"You've been following me for a long time." The girl suddenly spoke. She still had her back to Isaac, but the unforgettable voice still frightened Isaac.
"..." Isaac was stunned. He took a step back and looked at the girl in shock. He was not because of the girl's voice, but because of the other party's words.
How could she...remember herself? Over the years, there was only one person who could remember herself, and the other one broke through the curse of forgetfulness by virtue of his special ability.
Almost everyone forgets after seeing him, no matter how profound the memories are. He lived like a ghost until he met the girl and later the Duke of Rose.
"You...remember me?" Isaac's hand holding the wine bottle was trembling, and he stared at the girl.
"Huh?" The girl twisted unnaturally in response to the sight behind her.
"Is it a witch?" Isaac murmured, and he suddenly remembered the results of the Duke of Richelie's research.
"You can't beat me." The girl still sat quietly.
Because I can't beat you, why don't you even bother to defend? Have you forgotten the day when we just killed the Kraken on the Ginrai Sea in the dark night?
Isaac's blood pooled in his heart. After a long time, he jumped into the water and swam in the direction of Noli.
The girl was stunned, curled her lips, and jumped into the water after Isaac. But she didn't seem to be that good at swimming, and "fluttered" forward like a clumsy little duck.
