Chapter 121: The Torrent of the Times
He is the source of everything, the culprit who made the three siblings fall within the wall!
If it weren't for him, there would not have been a Calamity Witch! If it weren't for him, Evan and Charlotte wouldn't have been brothers! If it weren't for him, Vivien Leigh wouldn't have let her two brothers sink in pain for a false life! If it weren't for him, Sylvia wouldn't have become a mouthless puppet! If it weren't for him, Fort Savoie wouldn't have been destroyed! If it weren't for him, Lawrence wouldn't have accepted Claudine's soul and died! If it weren't for him, Claudio wouldn't have spent more than 3,000 years in the stream of no regrets!
- It's all because of him!
In Vivien Leigh's eyes, the man lying in the crystal coffin seemed to have changed his image. His frowning brow and slightly pursed upper lip combined to form an evil smile, as if he had done everything he could, dropping his pieces three thousand years ago, waiting for the board to turn its course.
And now under his calculations, Vivien Leigh has lost almost everything!
When she thought of her brother and sister falling apart and her family almost ruined, she was forced to bear the burden and endure all kinds of suspicious and strange eyes. These days, Fei Wenli's inner grievances and panic have erupted irrepressibly, and now she is like a flower and plant stepping out of the greenhouse, she must face the storm of the outside world, and no one will shelter her from the wind and rain.
Until he saw Lu Sien's body, all the grievances, fears, helplessness, anger, sadness, and despair turned into monstrous anger, and Fei Wen Li, who was carried away by anger, shouted left and right, "Open the coffin!"
Everyone looked at each other until Fei Wen Li reiterated again before taking the order, and when the crystal coffin was opened, everyone was shocked to find that Fei Wen Li actually drew her sword in her hand, and the holy sword shone with golden light, stabbing at the man in the coffin.
The tip of the sword stabbed into Lu Sien's heart, lacking the protection of the core soul, Lu Sien's physical body no longer had the ability to fix time and space, immortal and immortal, only heard a pop, and the blood of the heart splattered like a sharp arrow on Fei Wenli's beautiful face.
"Die, die, die, die, you bastard who ruined my house and caused everything! Remember me! I'm Vivien Leigh Clayderman! It's not Elenie—"
Vivien Leigh thought of her dead father, of her departed eldest brother, of her second brother, of Cecilia, of her resentment, of her crumbling castle, and that anger had swallowed her sanity away.
"Grand Duke!!" The people were stunned as they watched Vivien Leigh, who suddenly erupted like a madman. In my impression, this awe-inspiring woman who adheres to the principles of chivalry is unusual, and she vents wildly to the man who is lying in the coffin and is suspected of being Aiwen.
Vivien Leigh ignored it, and it wasn't until she was stopped by the two Rose Knights beside her that she threw down her holy sword out of breath and crouched on the ground to hide her face and weep.
Overwhelmed by boundless grief and grievances, she didn't notice that everyone around her, outside the dome, turned extremely pale, and they exchanged glances with each other, hiding the doubts and fears in their hearts deeply.
It didn't take long for Vivien Leigh and Charlotte to kill Aven, and then cross the river and tear down the bridge to expel Charlotte, and the information that the throne that originally belonged to the two brothers was confirmed, because Vivien Leigh was witnessed destroying Aven's body in the ruins of Fort Savoie.
Although there are many doubts in this matter, in the hands of those who are interested, the doubts are not important, all they need is evidence to justify their actions.
In a mansion in the backyard of the royal capital city hall, Cynthia, who heard about it, was slightly stunned. Although she didn't know about the long-cherished wish of the three siblings in the Northlands that involved the secrets of the multiverse, she was as smart as she deduced most of the beginning and end of the civil war that night.
Of course, she knew that the murder of Evan was nonsense, and when she heard about it, she pondered for a moment, the situation in her mind playing out like a giant chessboard. After a deep groan, her eyes showed a sickly look of vengeful pleasure, and she faced the south, her gaze as if she was looking through the void to the battlefield in the south.
"Erosa's decline is now!"
While Rebecca is immersed in grief, Cynthia Clegghorn is the first to perceive the crisis, but out of resentment towards the Clayderman family, she does not warn Vivien Leigh and Rebecca of this potential crisis.
As Cynthia expected, at the end of April, a piece of news swept through the North like a hurricane!
The Southern Army ignored Vivien Leigh's orders and intensified its onslaught on the Duchy of Durally, but under the command of the Grand Duke of Durally, the Durali army was defeated first and then won, and the southern army of Erosa was defeated by ambush and defeat, and the 300,000 Erosa army was wiped out, leaving only tens of thousands of remnants of the army to retreat north, and the Grand Duke of Durali took advantage of the situation to pursue, and the nobles of Erosa had to abandon a large area of territory south of the Calvi Grand Canyon and flee back to the north.
Later, Durali's army was exhausted, and he led a tired army back to help him with the onslaught of the lighthouse Zenas, but was defeated by the idle Zenas.
At this point, the lords who had lost the territory south of the Calvi Grand Canyon due to Erossa's southern expedition took advantage of the situation to regain power, and the southern territory of the Duchy of Durally was occupied by Zenas, and the Erosa legion, which had suffered heavy losses, retreated to the north. As Moon had expected before the battle, Erosa and Durally were both defeated, and Zenas took advantage of the situation. Having acquired a large territory, Zenas officially declared war on the tense Valcam Elder Council, and the former members of the Lighthouse, who had been corrupted by the glory and wealth, were all in danger for a while, and there was an endless stream of people of insight who surrendered to Zenas.
With the decline of the northern overlords, Zenas used the power of the imperial nobility to rise officially, and from then on he was no longer a small person who could be destroyed in the eyes of the great nobles, but a huge force with the real ability to confront the major principalities.
At the same time, due to the successive failures of the strategy of the northern hero Erosa and the southern overlord Horcent, the southern Helm Empire officially declared war on the old enemy San Lorenzo Empire under the leadership of the new emperor Bruno Harris, the old enemy Horcente Empire, the first to bear the brunt of the Lotus Raid, and the nephew Elinor Turner, who led the Duchy of Ullapool, joined forces to resist the menacing Helm Empire, a series of events caused turmoil in the countries of the Valcam continent, and everyone was in danger in this great era, because of the war between the two old powers, various countries and forces were involuntarily dragged into this chaotic era!
Various forces appeared one after another, and careerists, idealists, famous generals, and virtuous ministers shone in the sky like stars! In front of the torrent of the times, everyone was like a stone in the torrent, and they could not help but be washed away by the great waves. No one can escape this river, even if you know that the end is to destroy everyone, you can only keep moving forward, so you can either stay awake and despair, or you can only become even crazier than this era!
Vivien Leigh was about to be driven crazy by that situation!
After receiving the news and summoning the frightened court ministers, Vivien Leigh trembled with anger! She had already guessed the answer from the analysis of the shadow guard and Rebecca, and when she saw the palace minister and the viscount in charge of diplomacy fleeing back to the realm in fear, she immediately realized that she had been shamefully betrayed!
Vivien Leigh now realizes that she is about to face a far more dangerous situation than when Lawrence took the throne.
