Two months later, the horse's hooves slowly stopped outside Tria with a thick snow and a long string of mist coming out of its mouth.

Today's Kayadir is no longer the First Continental Empire of the past, with the United Kingdom of the South, which accounts for half of its original territory, to the south, and the three principalities to the east.

To the west is the Solan Empire, which dominates the entire western half of the Northern Continent, and although its national strength has just stabilized, its military strength is inferior to that of Kayadir in its heyday.

The six Knights of the Round Table and Sofia, plus a carriage, waited quietly outside the city of Tria, and in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, they did not bring a single soldier with them.

Soon after, a group of Church Knights went out of the city to greet them and took them to the headquarters of the Church of Light.

His Excellency Slum was placed to live in the Church, and as a hero, he was treated as he was due.

Alena even held a grand welcoming ceremony for him, praying that the god of light would favor his pious child.

And the six Knights of the Round Table followed Sophia, looking confused, didn't the boss say that he would know when he got to Tria?

Three days later, Alena received the crowd at the Hall of Light, and despite serving in the Solan Empire, these Knights of the Round Table believed in light.

To be honest, they were a little afraid to see Pope Alena because it was so embarrassing.

However, to their surprise, Pope Alena did not mention Ferrante's founding and their separation from the Holy Knights of Light, but instead praised them for their steadfastness in their faith in Light and their heroic achievements.

This set made them even more foggy, and they couldn't tell the situation.

In the main hall, Ah Lian, wearing a crown and holding a scepter, quietly looked at the statue of light, and then turned to the six knights of the round table and said:

"Tomorrow the palace will send someone to inform you to enter the palace. ”

The six of them looked at each other and did not speak.

"It's Ferrante's father, His Majesty Rono wants to see you, and I'm waiting for the notice after you go in. ”

Although they had doubts, the six of them agreed without hesitation, and then retreated, leaving only Sophia and Alena in the main hall.

"Alena, once you do this, the nobles will react strongly, there is no place for them in the south, and although Ferrante's side can still retain its name, it is actually no different from the big merchants. ”

"I know Sophia......" Arena walked up to her, "remember what you asked me at Sears?"

Sofia:???

"When you ask me how big Tria is, I said...... Tria is so big that the light doesn't shine into every corner......"

“...... I know. ”

Alena smiled, with the addition of the Light Divine Technique and her own maintenance, she couldn't tell that this Pope had changed from a young girl to a middle-aged man.

The years don't seem to have left much of a mark on her body, except for her steadiness and maturity, as well as her belief in the light.

"Sophia, I still don't understand what a person is, I can't understand what the teacher's question means, so I can only solve it according to what I saw back then, those nobles are no longer suitable for this era, in other words, do they think that those dirty things done in the shadows can escape the eyes of light?"

"And what are you going to do?" Sophia reached out and straightened her somewhat crooked crown.

"Be an honest businessman, or...... Merge with the flame of light. ”

“...... I think you should think more about the three principalities in the east, without the foothold of Kaiadir, I am afraid that many nobles will flee to those three principalities. ”

Alena nodded, "I'll think about it." ”

The next day, the invitation from the palace came as promised, and the six Knights of the Round Table discussed it carefully after returning home, and already had a little guess in their minds.

This made them sigh in unison, in just a dozen years, the changes in the entire North Continent can be described as earth-shaking.

As participants in history, they really don't know whether they are lucky or unlucky, but they don't know if the gods are watching them.

On that day, King Rono, who was too old to get out of bed, received six Knights of the Round Table in the main hall.

Of course, he was proud of his second son's achievements, but at the same time angry at the behavior of his eldest son.

And this time to invite the six Knights of the Round Table, Rono also has his own plans, although the Solan Empire is promoting the belief in the god of war, but it does not reject the light.

He is already very old, and when he dies, everything he did in the first half of his life is only in exchange for a moment of beauty.

Therefore, he wanted to contact Ferrante through the six knights and give the only northern land in the entire Kaiadir to the Solan Empire, so that Ferrante indirectly inherited his mantle.

But he overlooked one thing, that is, Ferrante is no longer the Ferrante of the past, that willful rebellious and paranoid child, who has been killed on the battlefield for more than ten years, is already the king of a terrifying empire.

All dreams were shattered in Sofia's dagger, when the six Knights of the Round Table received a code that only they understood, when Sophia's figure appeared behind Rono's back, when the dagger stabbed into his heart from the back.

Rono's somewhat aggrieved life finally fell into darkness, and the six knights left the main hall and took control of important places in the palace.

Sophia, on the other hand, bent down and picked up the Eye of Horus in Ronor's hand.

It was almost impossible for Rono to use this legendary artifact, but it was very difficult for him to hold it even in his old age.

Sophia stood silently next to the corpse, silent for a long time, and finally carefully put away the Eye of Horus, ready to bring it to Ferrante......

In the winter of that year, the king of Kayadir, Rono, died of old age and illness in his bedchamber.

With its strong strength, the Church of Light announced that it would take over internal affairs, abolishing the laws of nobles' fiefs and private soldiers, and the clergy who had already been installed in the Imperial Legion also held the right and bowed to the church.

And the church did not change to the Bright Church State, and still chose to use the name of Kayadir.

Ordinary people are okay, the church runs the country, no matter how bad it is, it will not be much worse, and the believers are naturally even more happy, feeling that the light is once again close to them.

And those nobles felt that a catastrophe was coming, and the end was coming, and many nobles were thinking carefully.

But at the same time, the Church of Light announced that a branch of the God of War could be established in Kaiadir, but it was subject to the joint review of the Solan Empire and the Church of Light.

In this way, the idle inquisition naturally aimed the credit on those nobles.

In the main hall, Alena sighed and agreed to the God of War faith to enter Kayadir, which was her response to Ferrante.

The news spread all over the Hokuriku, and people were surprised, but in the past ten years, there has been little news of surprise? Most people are still living their lives just listening to Yile.

And the Speaker of the Parliament of the United Kingdom of the South, Ferranch, couldn't hold back his laughter after hearing the news:

"It's an interesting time. ”

......

......

"Funny, you think I'm joking with you?" Brandi slammed the stone table in a hoarse voice, his eyes glancing over the thirteen orc patriarchs in the council.

"Brandy, isn't it already decided, next year or the year after, the orc army will begin to move like the north. The tiger patriarch said.

"What are you dragging? Isn't it just a matter of which tribe will take the lead? I thought the orcs wouldn't be greedy for life and afraid of death?"

"Of course, orcs are not afraid of death, but now it is winter! It snows heavily in the south of the southern continent, even if they can reach the north in the spring, how much combat power can they attack immediately?" asked the bear man patriarch.

Brandi frowned, got up slowly, and tapped his fingers on the tabletop:

"Just because it's winter!That's why we're marching in this era, and this autumn we have a bumper harvest of orcs, and we can supply grain and grass, and the human beings in the North Continent have just finished a few wars, and the army is exhausted, and the food and grass are insufficient, so it's a good opportunity for us to attack! Even if we go to the north in the spring, what is there to wait for two months of rest and wait for food and grass? Do you want to wait until they have slept and eaten enough, and then rush over!"

The more Brandi spoke, the more excited he became, so much so that his hands trembled a little while holding the wooden staff: "Orcs can not be afraid of death!

Brandi sat back in his chair, closed his eyes and gasped.

The hall of the thirteen clans fell silent for a moment.

Soon after, the werewolf patriarch coughed: "Raise your hand to vote, for so many years, we have been preparing to agree to the show of hands in the northern part of the winter march." ”

After speaking, the werewolf patriarch took the lead in raising his hand, and the other twelve patriarchs glanced at each other, followed by the tiger man, the lion man, the bear man, and the elephant man......

Among the thirteen orcs, except for the butterfly people, rabbit people and cat people, the rest all raised their hands.

This winter, when Kaiadir was still maintaining stability, the Solan Empire was still solving the problem of officials after the loss of nobles, and the Southern United Kingdom was still vigorously developing its social system.

On the southern continent, the 400,000-strong advance army of orcs braved the wind and snow and began to march north.

At the front of the army, Brandi, clad in animal skins, lifted his staff, the cold wind blew over his hood, the snow hit his beard and gray hair, and his eyes were as gloomy as vultures.

"Let's go!"

The hoarse voice was heard over and over again, and the crow on the shoulder also chirped
