"Your Highness, I think you should go back to Rose Castle to rest now, instead of passing through the inner castle defenses from Nile Mountain Cliff and heading directly to Noli Dungeon!"
"But we don't have time. Naples should be able to report to me tomorrow morning the situation in Norway in recent years. Tomorrow afternoon I want to meet the Norwegians who have experienced extreme cold storms and winter fortresses."
Xavier frowned tiredly, as well as White, Niya, Erlo, Shasha, etc. They should also come to him later, or they have already come to him. But as soon as he woke up,
After heading to Nile Cliff, there was no time to stop.
"Your Highness, don't catch cold with your cloak. You must realize how weak your body is." Arthur sighed, and he covered Xavier with the cloak on his horse.
"Lord...X, Xavier...Your Highness," Michelle's voice still echoed in Xavier's mind, "I suddenly remembered that there was a subordinate of Baron Holmulander who once told me
, that baron can build a city wall surrounding the entire Nori in a month."
Looking at Michelle's sarcastic expression, Xavier frowned, a month? This is unimaginable to everyone, but Baron Holmland dared to say it like that.
There is also the White Harbor Army's tactics, which incorporate thousands of signal languages and variations of military formations. They can only be created by people who are extremely familiar with military formations.
If the person who created this military formation said that he could build a city wall in a month, then Xavier would have to think about it seriously.
Under the bumps of a simple carriage, Arthur and Xavier passed through the ruins of the streets of Norway. The streets were full of homeless citizens, who lived in makeshift stone houses built in the ruins.
"Arthur, where are the nobles of Nori?" Xavier suddenly thought of something and asked Arthur in front of him.
"The heads of the four viscount families are all in the manor in the inner castle. They came to see you once at noon, but you were still sleeping at that time." Arthur thought about it for a moment.
"Where are the craftsmen and grain merchants?"
"I'm not that clear about this, Your Highness. Mr. Naples should know better. However, Your Highness, rest assured that the Rose Family will provide relief to the citizens of the inner city, and the defense construction project for the outer fort will start soon."
It was an extremely difficult matter to face an extreme cold storm. Xavier looked around and watched intently. But now the city area was in a mess. The only ones that were intact were the noble manor and Rose Castle in the inner castle, as well as the inner castle.
Norwegian Institute of Mechanical Engineering.
"Your Highness, we are here." Arthur's voice broke Xavier's thoughts. Xavier calmed down and the familiar stone house appeared in front of him.
The difference from before is that this time, the stone castle can see the brightly lit inner room through the narrow glass window, which looks particularly warm in the dark night.
"Good evening, Lord! May the goddess Dianyi bless you!" The two soldiers guarding the dungeon bowed deeply when they saw Xavier.
Although they had never seen this lord at all, at most they had seen him vaguely in the church in the early morning of that morning. However, their leader Norbert repeatedly emphasized that the new lord had pure black hair.
If we talk about purity, the two soldiers looked at each other, this is probably purity. Just like the ultimate darkness, this is probably the Lord of Rose!
"Lord, are you here for Baron Holmulander?" One of the soldiers glanced at Xavier tentatively.
"Yes, I hope to see the baron now." Xavier said in a deep voice.
"Let's go and notify the warden right now!" The soldier stood up straight, saluted Xavier, and trotted towards the stone house.
Under the guidance of the soldiers, the warden quickly came to Xavier and Arthur. He cautiously put his right hand into a fist on his chest, and his beer belly looked very bloated against the background.
Following the warden, several people walked towards the damp and dark dungeon.
"I didn't expect that the lord came here first. It seems that he attaches great importance to this baron?" The warden's high-pitched voice sounded completely inconsistent with his appearance. He rubbed his hands and smiled.
"..." Xavier raised his eyes and did not answer the warden.
"Please come here. We have already made arrangements for the lord. Few prisoners can survive without food and water for dozens of hours." The warden chuckled.
The warden and two soldiers took Xavier and Arthur to the black prison not far from the dungeon, which was connected to the first floor of the dungeon.
The warden expected from the beginning that Xavier would come to "visit" Baron Holmland first, so he did not throw the latter into the dungeon at all.
Instead, the criminal method of fasting food and water was used, and the weakest Baron Holmland was placed in front of Xavier to achieve the maximum effect of the interrogation! Here, you can vaguely see the Ain Mohai tributary surrounding the border between Norway and Lebanon. This
This is also where the dungeon draws its water.
The warden made a funny "please" gesture. He walked into the spiral stone staircase and opened a cold and heavy iron door.
"Lord, this is a special iron door with extremely good sound insulation effect. We will not hear things we shouldn't hear. Oh, by the way, if you have any needs, you can knock on the iron pipe on the side and I will guard it.
We will help you outside as soon as possible."
The warden smiled flatteringly, scratched his head, and introduced this special compartment to Xavier.
"You know, from the moment this dungeon was built, we never imagined that this interrogation room would be used... Even in the Prison of the Undead, this is a place only Class A prisoners are eligible to go.
."
The warden looked with some embarrassment at the rusty outer iron door and a thick layer of dust covering it.
"Have you been to the Prison of the Dead?" Xavier suddenly spoke. He was a little curious. Does this little warden of Noli actually know the laws of the Prison of the Dead?
"Hey, I used to work there before..." The warden showed a weird and flattering smile, and he closed his mouth. After all, he said this kind of thing too much, and maybe one day he was pointed at the head by a firecracker in his dream.
.
The warden took out a bronze key with a complicated pattern. He opened the heavy iron door with some difficulty, and then ordered two soldiers to guard the door.
"Please, sir." The warden bowed ninety degrees. He didn't close the iron door again until Xavier and Arthur had walked in.
The left and right sides of the iron door are engraved with skulls and angels respectively. When it slowly closes, it looks like a devil and a goddess kissing.
"Justin Holmuland, born in Nosi 4382. Born in Luke Holmuland, studied at Linglan Snow Realm University, majoring in politics and history. Unmarried, returned to Holmuland after graduation.
Inherit his father's title of baronet."
Xavier sorted out the information that Naples had given him, and found only two pieces of parchment.
Xavier just glanced at him and knew that he was a very ordinary son of a baron. If it weren't for this rebellion, he would have married a wife and had children. After all, many nobles at his age have children who are almost seventeen or eighteen years old.
The man in front of him was chained to a metal pillar that was integrated with the stone floor. There was a magnet on his hands, which caused him to be painfully attracted to the iron pillar.
The originally neat long hair of the aristocratic man was messy and covered his forehead. His gorgeous coat was taken off one by one, and the brown inner shirt was covered with scars and bloodstains.
He raised his eyes, full of tiredness. When he saw someone coming in, he just twitched the corner of his mouth as a reaction to the person.
