Chapter 13: The Wind Rises

Count Adriss is the father-in-law of the current Emperor William II of the Menian Empire, and since his youngest daughter Alice became one of the most favored concubines in William II's harem, Count Adadris has naturally risen in status. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Count Ardris, who often regarded himself as the emperor's father-in-law, was over sixty years old, but his thirst for power was no less than that of a young man.

Relying on his own gold coin offensive and his youngest daughter's pillow wind, Lord Addris finally got his wish a few years ago and became the chief consul of the empire, becoming the oldest chief consul in the history of Menia! Count Adris also has another identity, that is, Lord Count is Aldrich's father! Although General Aldrich has always been resentful of his father's use of his youngest sister to ascend to the position of Imperial Consul, the relationship between father and son has been very cold. But there is no doubt that Adris is Aldrich's father!

Therefore, when General Aldrich, who was currently going to conquer the giants, was almost wrapped in a wounded cloth and carried into the general's residence like a dumpling, it naturally alarmed Lord Count Ardris, who was his father. After summoning the chaplain to inquire in detail about his son's injuries, the Earl calmly waved his hand to signal the bloodied priest to step aside.

Aldrich's right leg was broken, it was broken by a boulder, and even if it was cured in the future, it would fall lame, in addition to several broken ribs, although these ribs have been connected, but whether the broken ribs are bruised to the internal organs still need to be observed, and there are many serious abrasions, but these are just skin injuries.

After the chaplain left, Count Adaris, who had been suppressing his anger, finally broke out, and the porcelain smuggled from the distant Desic Empire in the house fell into disarray, and was reduced to piles of pieces under the anger of Lord Earl Adaris. After smashing the expensive porcelain, the Count was obviously not breathless, but he had to stop because of his physical exhaustion, and sat down in a chair in the corner, gasping for breath.

The servants were silent, and no one dared to go in and disturb the Earl, especially this kind of venting that only smashed things without making a sound. I remember that last time it was because the Earl sent the youngest lady into the palace and then had a big quarrel with his only son, General Aldrich, General Aldrich left in anger and moved into his general's mansion, and the Earl was also so silent and only smashed things, that time there was a guy who didn't have long eyes and listened to the silence in the house, just looked into the house, and this glance made the guy lose his life, and was dragged out of the gate by the Earl's order to be killed alive.

After a long time, the Earl finally calmed down his anger, and the calm Earl quietly stared at the porcelain fragments on the ground, and his cold gaze made people shudder. To outsiders, Lord Count was an unresponsive Imperial archon with some of the characteristics of old age. Seriousness, peace, kindness, and a little seriousness were the consensus of all the officials and nobles who had worked with Lord Count.

But only the Earl's henchmen and enemies knew that the old Earl was definitely more shrewd than all the cunning men he had ever met! Cunning, ruthless, and unscrupulous in order to achieve the end is the true face of this Earl! The Earl's calming down was terrifying, as can be seen from the fact that his political enemies were either exiled for inexplicable scandals, or executed for the sudden appearance of ironclad evidence of corruption and malfeasance.

And because Xiao Yang injured Aldrich, he was naturally put in the position of the enemy by the old earl. But this time the enemy was so powerful and so great that even one of the most elite legions of the empire could not hurt him, and even injured his most precious and only son. It was so huge that the old earl, who had experienced most of his life and was accustomed to all kinds of strange rumors and stories, had never heard of it. This made the cunning old earl feel a palpitation of heart for a while.

All this made the old Earl very cautious, but even so, it still could not extinguish the raging fire of hatred in the Earl's heart. Since you are too strong for a single legion to hurt you, use the power of the entire Menia to defeat you! Since you are huge, then you have to fight this giant called "The Nation"!

The Earl, who had already considered it, clapped his hands and called in some of his henchmen and servants to give such and such orders, and when he was sure that these henchmen understood what he meant, the Earl raised his chin towards the gate with a gloomy face, and motioned for them to proceed at once. After the order, the Earl ignored the fact that it was almost dusk, and asked his coachman to prepare the car, and he was going to the palace!

At this time, Xiao Yang, who had relaxed his vigilance because he couldn't see the shadow of the pursuers, was roasting the Chimera in the valley where the Chimera was originally located. I didn't know that the power of the entire Meniya Empire was weaving an invisible net over me!

In the twilight, a huge magnificent rat cart pulled by eight huge Glenfo rats drove into the heart of the entire Meniya Empire - the Imperial Palace!

At sunset, a Phyllis cat knight inspected the order signed by the chief consul at the gate of the imperial capital and headed north.

In the night, sneaky figures poured into the noisy and noisy houses on the side of the road, gathering all kinds of adventurers, mercenaries in low-end taverns and restaurants.

The first rumors came out of various versions of the rumor about the giant on the beach, and all of them had one thing in common, that is, this giant had a value comparable to that of a dragon, and his armor was made of Adamantite of the seabed, which was comparable to Mithril and even more precious and rare! His teeth are the most precious white jade grows! His flesh and skin can heal any patient suffering from a terminal illness as long as he has a breath left, and a drop of his blood can expel the most ferocious demonic beasts with just a drop of his blood! His bones are made from elemental spirits rich in magical elements!

Just when people were still skeptical about these rumors, another explosive news came, the three main forces in the north that had been responsible for fighting against the Desik Empire, Wind, Flame, and Ice, two of them had retreated, and the Flame and Ice Legion were heading all the way towards the Imperial Capital, and after merging with the Royal Magician Regiment in the Imperial Capital, the target was directly aimed at the rumored giant!

And now the entire northern defense line with empty defense, except for the second-line corps responsible for defense, only one main force with strong mobility remains, and a team also composed of Glenfo giant rat cavalry - the Hurricane Cavalry Regiment! At the same time, a delegation of envoys has also set out, and they will visit the Desik Empire with news of the giants.

If that's not enough, the news that came at the end would be enough to dispel anyone's doubts.

That's the bounty announcement in the name of the Empire! Anyone who assists in killing or capturing the giant will be rewarded with 50,000 gold coins! Anyone who assists the Imperial forces in wounding or expelling the giant will be rewarded with 30,000 gold! Individuals who report the Giant's exact location and are finally confirmed will be rewarded with 10,000 gold coins! And under the premise of these bounties, the Empire's Chief Consul, Lord Count Aris, will personally reward any individual or group that has caused damage to that giant with an additional 50,000 gold coins!

For a time, the entire Menia Empire was surging. And Lord Adrisi, Lord Earl Adaris, who stirred up all this, was silently tasting the purple tea that had also been smuggled from the Desik Empire in his mansion at this time, and Lord Count looked at the yellow porcelain teacup in his hand, his eyes calm and deep.
