Chapter 18 The World is Impermanent

"Why did your patriarch save me?" Anthony waited for Carrot to sit down, and asked the most crucial point directly.

Carrot glanced at Anthony with a complicated expression.

At the beginning, he was ordered by the patriarch to use the adult assessment to give Anthony a lesson that he will never forget. Now he is also ordered by the patriarch to report to Anthony.

Only a few months apart, the relationship between the two has come to a big turn. It's really impermanent.

Carrot sighed and said, "The patriarch said that the Bruce family is carrying this time, and there is no room to turn over. Now all the family descendants are under the control of the Francisco family. Although there is no excesse, it does not even restrict everyone's freedom of movement. After they have completed all the operations on the surface and legally annexed the Bruce family, all those with Bruce blood will inevitably die. ”

"The only person in the family who hasn't been discovered and controlled by them is you. The patriarch said that as long as you can escape this catastrophe, the bloodline of the Bruce family can continue. If you can grow up in the future, lead the Bruce family back to life. The patriarch will also feel relieved under Jiuquan, and he will not be ashamed of the ancestors of the family. ”

It must be said that the patriarch is a contradictory person. However, in the Glorious Empire, and even in the entire Oss continent, there are many, many more people at the helm of a family like Patriarch Bruce. They take the interests of the family as the first goal, and regard the continuation and development of the family bloodline as the most important mission. It is far more important than loyalty to the country.

And this recognition has been endorsed and embraced by all the great nobles, including even the royal family. The cornerstone of the state is the nobility, and only with the support of the majority of the nobility can the king secure his throne.

Therefore, in various empires, there are many great nobles with a long history and hundreds of thousands of years. The dynasty changed, and the royal family changed batch after batch. But these great nobles still occupy positions of power that cannot be ignored in different dynasties.

Anthony fell silent again.

For the patriarch, Anthony naturally does not have any good feelings. The branch where the grandfather is located is that he was defeated in the internal struggle of the family and left the remote town. There is a patriarchal reason for this. In time, he has gone away to dodge, and the main family still does not forget to annex the branch veins from time to time. When Anthony arrived, he found out that he had a "double waste wood" physique, and did not practice fighting spirit and magic. They made it even more difficult to attack in many ways, and tried to pass Anthony's adult assessment and take everything in the branch vein into the main family.

It can be said that according to the original development trend of things, there will inevitably be a fight to the death between Anthony and the patriarch.

However, in the face of the crisis of severing the family's bloodline, the patriarch chose to abandon the grievances between the two bloodlines and tried his best to save Anthony.

Although he didn't know that if he continued to struggle with Anthony, the fate of his own line would not be much better than it is now.

It can be said that the invasion of the Francisco family has turned the fate of the Bruce family upside down.

"The Francisco family you are talking about, but in the county, the patriarch is Viscount Gabriel?" Owen, who had been sitting quietly next to him and obediently being a listener, suddenly interjected and asked.

Carrot had already noticed the richly dressed young man, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Yes, it is Viscount Gabriel of the county. ”

When Owen heard this, he turned to Anthony and said, "I said brother, but he is just a little viscount, why do you want to do so much." Wouldn't it be clear to go back and see? ”

Anthony smiled, but he ignored it, this guy next to him is not small, and the official face can completely suppress the scene. As for hands-on, Anthony is the one who can't ask for it.

"Okay, then there's Viscount Law."

Owen laughed: "Between you and me, where do you need to be so polite." ”

I don't know if it was because of his Lao Tzu's suggestion, or if Owen himself inherited the earl's talent, and brought the relationship between the two closer, he also played smoothly and abnormally. Anthony could only sigh to himself when he saw it.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Carrot and Massopster were surprised and delighted. Unexpectedly, this young man who seems to have a lot of background is really a big shot. is actually a viscount, which is equivalent to the patriarch of the Francisco family from the county town and overwhelmed the Bruce family. If he intervenes and mediates, it may not be impossible to resolve this crisis of the Bruce family.

Carrot looked at Anthony with a calm face, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. He knew that the patriarch had been worried about this young man of the branch before, and was worried about his revenge when he grew up. But that's at least a few years, if not decades away. Unexpectedly, in less than a year, he had already made amazing development, and he became a brother and sister to a viscount.

If he can help the family survive the crisis of destruction this time, how should the relationship between the two veins be dealt with in the future? It's a headache to think about.

Of course, the person who should be hurt is also the patriarch, and it has nothing to do with him, a loyal dog. The most important thing now is to solve the current family crisis first.

Anthony discussed with Owen a little and decided to go back directly according to Owen's proposal to see what tricks the other party could play.

Carrot and Massopster naturally followed and returned.

Although their original mission was to send a warning to Anthony so that he could escape as soon as possible. But now that they suddenly have the help of a viscount, their expectations are naturally raised. Perhaps, the family members can be saved, but the big deal is to lose more belongings. Compared to the original ideal result, this is already an unthinkable extravagance.

……

The town is not far from Hengling City, and it only took a day and a half for the group to rush to see the sharp tower in the center of the town.

Anthony didn't play any tricks of dressing up and lurking and listening to the news. Directly led everyone into the town from the official road without concealment.

In terms of titles, Owen's viscount title is enough to suppress the Francisco family; In terms of force, he has already fought a battle against the silver warriors of the Earl of Edinburgh, let alone a "small" county nobleman.

After just a few months away, Anthony already had a lot of capital.

Walk into the town, walk through the spacious square, and soon arrive at Anthony's doorstep.

On each side of the gate stood a samurai in half-length armor with a long sword hanging from his waist. Beyond the one-person-high fence outside the door, you can see a luxurious carriage full of local tyrant atmosphere parked on the lawn inside.

Anthony tilted his head to look at Owen. Owen understood, nodded, and said affirmatively: "That's right, judging from the family coat of arms on the carriage, it is indeed the Francisco family." ”

It seems that Carrot is not lying.

Even if he played some tricks against himself, the patriarch did not dare to joke with the coat of arms of a viscount family. If it is said that the patriarch unites with the Francisco family to deal with him, it is not very likely. According to their perception of their own strength, this is too much of a fuss. Besides, even if you get your little piece of fat, you don't know if it's enough to fill the stomach of the hungry wolf you found.

In that case, let me meet this Ho Lai Sandro for a moment? Francisco Colly.
