Section 7: Conspiracy

Thirty years ago, there was a great war on the continent of Dias that involved all the kingdoms, including all the kingdoms and major powers, countless royal families and nobles participated in the war, and the number of ordinary soldiers killed and wounded was tens of thousands.

The war, known to later generations as the battle for the black and white towers, stemmed from the struggle for the succession of the Emperor of the Pumen Bruce Empire, whose royal coat of arms was a towering tower. During the time of the old emperor Constantine II, the royal family was divided into the Divofu faction, headed by the emperor's brother Chapman, and the Mondesl faction, headed by the old emperor's eldest son, Macran.

Chapman's family coat of arms is a black tower, while the family coat of arms of the old emperor's eldest son Macran is a white tower, which is also the origin of the name of the black and white dispute, when the old emperor did not leave a will and died, the two heirs to the throne immediately claimed the title of emperor, and in the end the contradiction between the two was irreconcilable and could only be resolved by war.

Chapman, who initially owned the largest principality of the empire, had an absolute advantage, and the Imperial knights he mobilized swept through Markran's levies like thunder, and the soldiers who were hastily recruited were no match for the elite knights.

But Macran soon asked for foreign aid, and the noble knights of the Blue Kingdom joined the battle, and Macran instigated the old-fashioned nobles in the empire, and the combat power not only did not weaken but increased a lot, and the men of the two tower families fought desperately and bled a river.

When the Kingdom of Blue joined the war, the feud of the Kingdom of Bru Kate Kingdom also immediately announced its support for Chapman, sending a hundred ships and 10,000 troops to land and invade the territory of the Pumen Bruce Empire, the expansion of the war eventually affected the entire Dias continent, but the ending was very dramatic, on the eve of the decisive battle between Makran and Chapman, Makran died unexpectedly, and the Black Tower achieved an unexpected victory.

"This is the story of the battle between the Black King and the White King." From the mouth of Little Lori Anne, the eloquent ballad tells an earth-shattering war in detail.

"Bang bang." After listening to the ballad story, Bruce clapped his hands, not to mention the crisp voice of the little Lori Anne, it was enough to make people feel comfortable.

"So, as I said earlier, the people of Greenton are fierce, and Lord James didn't mean anything good to give you this place." Little Lorianne said to Bruce.

"Hahaha, everything has to be seen in two, and things have to be looked at dialectically, understand?" But Bruce is not worried, this village is undoubtedly a flood beast in the eyes of others, but it is a treasure to Bruce.

"Benzheng?" Little Lori Anne looked at Bruce with a puzzled expression, she felt that Bruce's condition was getting worse and worse, and she said something she couldn't understand.

"Forget it, you don't understand, anyway, Greenton Village is the right place." Bruce said confidently to Annie.

"I don't understand." Little Lori Anne shook her little head, she still couldn't figure out what was so good in Greenton Village.

As Bruce listened to Anne tell him about the battle between the black and white towers, several figures walked into the empty warehouse in the village, none other than the Elders, Blacksmiths, and Mad Friars of Glinton.

"Where is the huntress?" The mad monk shouted as soon as he entered the storehouse, as if he were not afraid of being heard.

"Be quiet, she's already here." Elder Warren glanced at the mad monk and said to him.

"Coming, where?" The mad monks looked around, but there was no one but the empty warehouse, and the place was very remote, which was why they chose to meet here.

"Giggles, still the old guy is sharp." I saw a figure jumping down from the beam, the tall figure and vigorous skills, it was the huntress Eve.

"Alright, everyone is all together, tell me what you think of the new lord." Elder Warren said slowly.

"He's a nice guy, a little younger, but it's to my liking." Yve, the huntress, smiled and fiddled with one of the hunting knives in her hand and said to the others.

"Hmph, you, as long as it's a man, you want to hook up and." The mad monk scolded.

"Sidney shut your foul mouth or I'll cut out your tongue and feed it to the dogs." The huntress raised her eyebrows and gestured with the hunting knife in her hand.

"Hmph, I can't afford to mess with you fierce." The mad monk muttered in acknowledgement.

"I think the new lord is a good man." At this time, the blacksmith said resignedly.

"Ha, are there any good people in the Locke family? They are the meanest speculators, and now the main task is to keep an eye on us. The mad monk sneered, he didn't have a good impression of the Locke family at all.

"It can't be said that this lord is very young, and he must not know much about the dispute between the black and white kings, and we may have a chance." Elder Warren's snow-white eyebrows furrowed, and he said to the others.

"Opportunity? The White King is dead, his old tribes have long since fled, and the forces of the Mondessel faction have long since dissipated with the wind. The huntress had an indifferent look on her face, and everyone present was silent as if they were immersed in the glory of the past.

"Okay, I also understand that the White King's forces will not be able to make a comeback, but I must protect the villagers of Grington Village, this is my only duty now." Elder Warren sighed and said to his companions.

"Hehehe, I saw Todd's men escorting the carriage to Locke Manor today, what do you think will happen if the new lord finds out?" The huntress said with a smile as she covered her mouth with her hands.

"Oh, is the information accurate?" Elder Warren's half-narrowed eyes opened, and he turned his face to the huntress and asked.

"I saw it with my own eyes." The huntress nodded in confirmation.

"Ha, now the people of the Locke family will definitely have infighting because of this." The mad monk laughed as well.

"Pick the right time to tell the new lord the news and see what he will do." Elder Warren said to the huntress.

"I understand, my own tax collector actually gave the goods to another lord, even if it is the feudal lord of the new lord, I am afraid that no nobleman will swallow this breath." The huntress smirked as she slipped her knife back into the leather holster around her waist, seemingly enjoying the game.

"What about the rest of the villagers? Need to tell them about our plans? The blacksmith asked, a little worried.

"Don't worry, although the previous lord has just died, and the power within the Locke family is not stable, but we are prisoners guarded by the entire empire, and it is impossible for us to escape smoothly." Elder Warren said worriedly.

"However, the people of the Locke family have repeatedly increased their taxes, and our people are either starving to death or hanged for poaching, so it is better to fight." The blacksmith's voice involuntarily raised, and it was obvious that he was worried about his child.

"You have to observe the situation, it's not an easy thing to do." There seemed to be tears in the elders' eyes, their fate was so tragic that it was completely incompatible with the Empire.
