The grand ceremony lasted only a quarter of an hour before it ended.

The image on the Rushing Fort vanished and returned to a gray, cold sky, but the effects of the ritual had just begun, and the hundreds of thousands of residents of Balosk City were still looking back, and almost no one went about their business, talking loudly with their family, friends, or strangers.

This "live broadcast" ceremony, both in terms of form and the message delivered, greatly shocked everyone.

As the most prosperous port of Congatro, all the major families have planted people in Baloske, and at this moment, the news of the official return of the Dragonborn and the allegiance of the Fischer family has spread through different means, and in less than two days, the entire kingdom will be known.

This is exactly what Wren wanted.

He looked at Duke Fischer, and the soul eye showed that the other party's mood was very stable, and there was no longer the vague fluctuation of before.

Obviously, the duke has accepted the reality and does not dare to have two hearts anymore.

Emily sat in the high-backed chair, her face full of irrepressible joy, and the sound of "Her Majesty" in her ears made her feel a little unreal, excited, excited and dazed, with mixed feelings, and she did not come back to her senses for a long time.

"Her Majesty. ”

Duke Fisher waited until the image in the sky disappeared, and immediately reported: "The whole city has seen the ceremony just now, and Marke will soon get the news, and he must prepare as soon as possible, but my sturgeon warriors ...... Moreover, it takes time for my vassals to gather their armies. ”

There was a pause at this point, and everyone understood what he meant.

The Riverbend Legion had just suffered a serious loss, and many sturgeon warriors were repulsed by the collapse of the water curtain shield, and their souls were injured, and some of the sturgeon warriors had not recovered from their injuries, so it was impossible to go out immediately.

Emily nodded in understanding.

"How long will it take for your army to depart?"

Duke Fischer pondered for a few breaths and replied, "At least five days." "This is already a rush, and five days is not enough time for the sturgeon warriors to fully recover from their injuries.

Unexpectedly, Emily did not rush, but smiled: "I'll give you seven days." ”

The Duke of Fisher was surprised, the soldiers were very fast, and every day in the war was very precious, and sometimes even a delay of several hours could affect the victory or defeat. By the time seven days had passed, Mark must have gathered his army in the royal capital of Kingsland, and might have taken the initiative to attack.

Emilys saw his doubts and said with a smile, "Lieves don't have to worry, just gather the army." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Duke Fischer turned back to his vassals and ordered, "Return to your territory at once, gather your knights and transcendents, and rush to Rushing Fort within three days, and those who fail to do so will be regarded as betrayal." ”

With the lessons of Viscount Wadfrye, no one in the lords dared to disagree.

Exit the White River Hall one by one and return to the territory as fast as possible.

Later, the Duke of Fischer invited the group to a more secluded council chamber on the upper floor of Rushing Castle, where Emily sat at the top and her vassal among them.

"Your Majesty, will seven days be too long to affect the restoration plan?" Duke Fischer asked with a solemn expression: "Marc has just been fighting with Duke Danse for a few months, and his troops are very tired, and the casualties have not had time to replenish, so this opportunity should be seized." ”

He has stepped into his own role, thinking from the standpoint of the Zogenburg family.

This was a great relief to Emily.

As for the issue of Duke Fischer, she had already discussed it with Wren, Valogen and others before landing in Congatro.

Wren smiled and explained, "Lord Duke, our strategy is not to surprise the enemy, but to defeat the enemy with dignity. ”

"It's not easy. ”

Duke Fisher disagreed, "Marc's Giant Deer Legion is the strongest in Congatro, and the number of transcendents ranks second, second only to the Ice Wolf Knights of Duke Brandon in the North. Moreover, Duke Brandon is also Marker's staunchest ally, plus the Falcon Guards of the Etis family, as well as the vassals, knights and transcendents of the three major families, can gather a transcendent army of more than 30,000 people, and the number of legends has reached twenty, even if we can defeat them head-on, it will be a great price. ”

"A few months ago, Marker's crusade against Duke Dans brought only half of his army to a halt to the three coalitions of the Dans, Morth, and us. If it weren't for the fact that Duke Danse had the news of His Majesty's imminent return to Congatro before the decisive battle, I'm afraid the coalition would have been defeated. ”

Speaking of which, Duke Fischer half-truthfully showed his concern.

The previous Congatro civil war, which seemed to be a lively fight, was actually not tragic, both sides of the war were restrained, and the coalition forces were also supported by three gods, and the Seven Gods would not allow the Lauberdir family to dominate and completely rule the Congatro Kingdom.

Even if Malk wins, he will not dare to really wipe out the three major families, and he will be ceded land and compensated.

This usurper just wants to wash away his shame.

"Just because the three coalitions can't do it doesn't mean we can't. Wren was very clear about these situations, Valrogan had been collecting information and would sort out and share it every day, and he also knew that this was Duke Fisher's test of his own strength, and said: "Lord Duke, you haven't really seen what it's like for the wizarding group to participate in the war, and you haven't realized that my extreme warband and the Knights of the Spear Wing give full play to their strength. ”

"Our war is not won by a large number of people. Wren smiled meaningfully and said slowly:

"Lord Duke, times have changed. ”

Duke Fisher's face changed slightly, remembering yesterday's battle, after the collapse of the water curtain shield, if the wizarding group unleashed the third round of meteor bursts, the Rushing Castle would now be in ruins.

"Lifs, I return to Congatro to rule, not to destroy. Emilys also spoke up: "We will advance step by step, from south to north, to recover the territory, and obtain the support of the major families, as well as the support of the noble lords, especially the people of Congatro." ”

"The more people are on our side, the fewer enemies there are. ”

"Marc gathers the army, our strength will also increase, without any conspiracy, in the end the two sides will start a final decisive battle, and we will definitely win!"

Emilis's tone was full of confidence, as if she had seen herself ascend to the Iron Throne.

Everyone was infected by her confidence, and the Duke of Fischer was also excited, and he cautiously asked, "Your Majesty, where is our next target?"

"Stormrage. ”

Duke Fischer found that he had guessed wrong, didn't Wren just say that he was going to advance step by step, why was he going to attack Stormfury Castle immediately?

Stormfury is a military fortress as well as a city.

It is located in the territory of the Lauberdire family, located on the southeast coast of Congatro, the terrain is steep, perennial by violent storms, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the city population is only a hundred thousand, but it is the core fief of the Lauberdier family, which has been inherited for more than 3,000 years, and is one of the oldest castles in Congartreo.

Forty years ago, after Mark usurped the throne of the Iron Throne and annexed the territory of the Drogon Castle, the Lauberdire family's focus shifted to the royal capital of Kingsland.

The territory of the Duchy of Lauberdir is not fertile, it borders the Duchy of Fischer, which divides the southern part of Congatro in two, but the Duchy of Lauberdir is far inferior to the Duchy of Fischer in terms of crop production, easy transportation, and bad weather.

But it is also the harsh environment that has created the strength of the giant deer warriors and cultivated the most powerful bloodline. 118

After Lauberdir took possession of the royal capital, the status of the family's domain gradually fell into disarray.

Stormfury Castle is no longer as important as it used to be, Marker canonized it to his younger brother, Prince Dilan, and he has not been back for many years, only using Stormfury Castle as a base for cultivating giant deer warriors, and every giant deer warrior who awakens his bloodline will leave Stormfury Castle and go to the royal capital.

The nobles in Lauberdire's domain also gradually moved to the royal capital and lived a life of drunkenness.

Its conquest value was much less than that of the Duchy of Morse in the north of the Duchy of Fischer.

"Your Majesty, I don't quite understand. Duke Fischer said bluntly.

Emily didn't explain, "You'll understand in a few days." Then the people in the council chamber discussed some details, and then dispersed.

Four days later, an extraordinary army of more than 3,000 men had been assembled inside and outside Rushing Castle.

The lords of the Duchy of Fischer did not dare to slack off, and gathered their knights and transcendentals, a total of twelve lords, the most one marquis had an army of five hundred men, and the least baron also brought forty or fifty men, almost pouring out.

Together with the Fisher family's Riverbend Legion and the Transcendental, there were also two thousand people.

Five thousand centaur troops, five thousand transcendent legions, the two combined, and suddenly the number of troops under Emily's command exceeded 10,000.

With so many transcendent beings gathered, eating, drinking, and sleeping was already a big problem.

It was also necessary to carry out management rectification, strict military discipline, and mediate the friction and contradictions between the lords, and Valrogan and Duke Fischer were very busy, and it took two days to integrate the army of 10,000 people.

"Your Majesty," reported Duke Fischer to the council chamber, "everything is ready, and the army will be ready to leave tomorrow." ”

"Lives, Valogen, you've been working hard these days. "Emily showed proper concern.

Both said it was what they should do.

Duke Fischer has passed the period of weakness, his injuries have healed, as a legendary high-level sturgeon warrior, he has been fine without sleeping for half a month, Valrogan is a little weaker, but he does not see the slightest tiredness, his eyes are shining, and the great cause that has been planned for many years is progressing smoothly, which makes his spirit more and more excited.

At this moment, a high-ranking transcendent mercenary came in and handed Valrogan a note.

He opened it and looked at it, then closed it again.

Emily asked, "What's the matter?"

Valogan's gaze swept over the people in the council chamber, hesitated for a few moments, and said, "Your Majesty, an important person has arrived outside Rushing Fort and asked to visit. ”

Emily stood up, "He's coming?"

"Yes. ”

"Invite him in. ”

Valrogan told the high-ranking mercenary to go out and hire someone. The communication between him and Emilys confused everyone in the hall, and even Wren didn't know who it was, let alone Duke Fischer.

Wren frowned, and the Soul Eye opened, revealing that apart from Emilys and Valogan, it seemed that only Astan knew the inside story, and even Din Raj was kept in the dark.

This is obviously the most confidential matter for Emilys and the others.

It's been hidden until now.

"Wren ......"

Emily turned her head around, her face a little apologetic, but also a little apprehensive. She was secretly glad that the two Speakers of Wezeland were not there, and if they asked, she didn't know how to explain.

Wren shrugged his shoulders and didn't speak.

Soon, the high-ranking mercenary entered the council chamber with four men covered in robes and hoods, and all eyes fell on them.

They walked into the council chamber and lifted their hoods in unison.

"Meet Her Majesty!"

"Meet the Dragon Lord!"

The names of the four people are different, the first is a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance, with a well-proportioned figure, wearing inconspicuous gray and white leather armor, with short black hair, slightly gloomy eyes and a dark temperament, when people look at him, they feel inexplicably uncomfortable, as if they are not looking at a person, but a poisonous snake.

Wren didn't know the man, but someone did.

Duke Fischer couldn't help but stand up, his face was extremely shocked, and he exclaimed, "Pedro Morse!" The other party saluted elegantly and said in a hoarse voice: "Lord Duke, we meet again." ”

Hearing the surname Morth, Wren suddenly understood.

This man is from the Duchy of Morth.

The Soul Eye also confirmed this, he was a legendary mid-level "snake whisperer", he had reached level fifteen, and his strength was extremely strong, and he was only one level away from entering the legendary high level.

The Snake Whisperer is one of the seven transcendent professions of Congatro, fused with the "King Snake of the Dark Sand", able to communicate with snakes, good at stealth sneak attacks and the use of poison, extremely fast and dexterous as electricity, the "Viper Legion" of the Morth family is disgusting when it is mentioned in Congatro.

The Morse family is the oldest family in Congatro, not even older than the Drogenburg family.

They believe in Cetarina, the "god of poison and snakes", and is one of the seven gods of Congatro.

Unlike the other six principalities, the Duchy of Morse was ruled by a family that was not a "duke", but called himself a "prince" or "queen", and the prince's siblings were equally titled and had the right to inherit both men and women.

The current Pedro Morse is a prince, second only to his eldest brother "Prince Doro".

There's a lot of information behind a Prince of Morth showing up at Riverrun and calling Emilys Queen!

Wren suddenly realized that the Morth family had already taken refuge in the Drogenburg family.

This is definitely Emilys's biggest secret, only the few people she trusts the most know about it, and when she first customized the restoration plan, she didn't mention the Morse family at all, and deliberately bypassed them.

However, Wren's soul eye saw more information.

The three people behind Pedro Morse are not "snake whisperers", they have the breath of a dragon on their bodies, and they are somewhat similar to the dragonborn apostles!

"What kind of transcendent profession is this?" Wren was a little strange.
