Disma, Admiral Erlenglad, Director General of the Maritime Administration;
West, Director of the Tunneling and Engineering Department of Erlenglad;
Martina, Financial Controller of Erlengrad...
Erengrad had just been massacred, and a new order had been quietly established at the Queen's finger. This is what is called a share of the pie. The loyal ministers who suppressed the rebellion were heavily rewarded, while the traitors were brutally massacred and imprisoned.
Like a group of beasts dividing up food, under the auspices of Snow Queen Katarina, new officials in Erengrad were produced one by one. Army Commander Lando undoubtedly became the biggest winner, taking over Tiers' position.
, became the new mayor of Erengrad. And Disma, who defeated the rebel fleet in the Battle of Erengrad, also played an important role. Under the Queen's instruction, he became the navy of Erengrad.
The commander-in-chief controls the western gate of Kislev for the Snow Queen. After that, a series of appointments of local officials followed.
Officials large and small were like lining up to receive a reward from the Queen, taking over the power from the Snow Queen and taking charge of New Erengrad.
Of course, the most important people among them are the absolute servants of the queen. They are all vampires, and they serve the queen just like slaves are loyal to their master. Others, especially those humans who do not know the truth, can only stand aside.
Get the leftovers.
What is sad is that the 30,000 surviving refugees, who survived the massacre of Erlengrad, now have to accept endless slavery. Rebuild the city, rebuild the buildings damaged in the war, and bury the bodies of their companions who died in the massacre.
, these are their jobs. After completing this, they will no longer stay in this city. This city will have new owners and new immigrants.
"Her Majesty the Queen?"
After the reward was awarded, the crowd dispersed. Landao quietly walked into Catalina's room.
Like Catalina, he has a pair of beautiful blue eyes, but the beauty is a bit weird. Hidden under the skin is an immortal body.
"You came……"
Katerina read softly without turning her head.
"Your Majesty, the Erengrad rebellion has finally been successfully resolved. Your enfeoffment has made all the ministers surrender, but there is one person. You seem to have forgotten him."
Landao stood at the door and whispered. He did not dare to take a step closer without Catalina's approval. But out of loyalty to the queen, he still expressed his thoughts and concerns.
"who?"
Catalina turned her head and looked at Grand Duke Landao coldly. Ten years ago, he looked like this now, but ten years later, he seemed to be even more handsome. Except for some of the broken hair on the top of his head, his face remained the same.
Handsome.
"Cohen."
Landao replied.
"You said that trash."
There was disdain and contempt in Catalina's words.
"Well... he is a waste, yes... but Cohen can be regarded as the Grand Duke of Kislev. His grandfather was one of the founders of Kislev. In addition, the people who obey him in Kislev are still
Quite a few.”
Landao whispered. He knew that the Queen had always disliked this person. She actually had a deep meaning in sending him to lead the Northern Alliance Army instead of the regular army of Kislev. In the end, he was really defeated. If
If it hadn't been for the little northern lord named Rhodes who came to the rescue, I'm afraid the situation would have been completely different now.
"Times have changed, and the descendants of heroes may not still be heroes."
She said coldly.
"I know, I mean, what would Cohen think? He's bled and been wounded in this rebellion war, but in the end he's gained nothing and will lose something he values... Cohen in Kisri
My husband still has some power. Her Majesty, it may take some time to eradicate this person."
Lando reminded. However, Catalina's eyes were still filled with disdain and arrogance.
"Are you still afraid of what kind of trouble he will cause? It's a waste to have this title for a declining duke."
Katerina read.
…
In Blackhammer Castle, the old butler Muros was sitting in his office, looking tired. Before Rhodes left, he handed over the castle to him to take care of, but a year later, the situation became somewhat uncontrollable. Laheim came from a big city, and he
It has a complete business operation model and many scheming methods. By squeezing out competitors and monopolizing the market, the industry is getting bigger and bigger. After starting to smuggle arms, it even has a private bodyguard team. It is a bodyguard team in name.
How is it actually different from the military?
Muros knew that as a last resort, he could find a reason to send out the army and capture Raheim. But he didn't want to go to that step. In that case, Raheim would definitely fight to the death. Is Erlengrad going back?
If he doesn't go, Blackhammer Castle has become his base. If his property is forcibly taken away and he is imprisoned in a dungeon, he will definitely resist, and his bodyguards will probably fight with the castle guards in the street. That way
, is the worst ending. If that happens, the security issue of Black Hammer Castle will become a hidden danger again. A place where safety cannot be guaranteed cannot receive immigrants. In that case, how can Black Hammer Castle develop?
?
Besides, if word of arresting a nobleman on unfounded charges spreads, Blackhammer Castle will no longer be recognized by the outside world. This is also something Lord Rhodes does not want to see.
Previously, he asked Roberts to search for and retain evidence of Laheim's arms smuggling, but the old captain never came back and stayed in the empire for a long time on the grounds of trade negotiations. Muros knew that he did not want to offend Laheim. After all, that
A bodyguard team is actually a dark force.
He was lying on the table, under the candlelight, he had an old face. Wrinkles crawled up his brow, full of vicissitudes of life and sadness.
"Muros..."
Chief Knight Virgil walked in. He was wearing a silver armor and holding a knight's sword. He still looked energetic, which was in sharp contrast to the fatigue of the old butler Muros.
"I don't think I believe it anymore. I still have to write to Rod about this matter. I will tell him everything that happened here and tell him that I failed to live up to his expectations and failed to manage this castle well."
Muros said in a hoarse and weak voice. He and Vergil were considered close friends. Before Rhodes left Blackhammer Castle, he and Vergil were the Lord's right-hand men. If even Vergil cannot be trusted,
Then, no one in this castle can be trusted. Fortunately, Virgil has not violated his oath. When he became a knight at the age of eighteen, he swore allegiance to the Lord of Blackhammer Castle. And Virgil's ancestors were all
This kind of loyalty to the Lord of Blackhammer Castle has been passed down from generation to generation.
"Write it, it's time for the lord to know. Let him decide how to deal with it."
Virgil was relieved. In the past two years, he had seen that Muros, who was not in good health, became even weaker. He even needed help when walking. If this state continued, Virgil was really worried that Muros would still be alive.
