Limontanlu.

A column of Lenoxan soldiers patrolled the walls of the majestic ancient walls, their blades glowing with a cold glow, and the Shadowstream and the Ominous Blade Legionnaires served as sentry posts at each corner tower, guarding the century-old city.

Compared with the solemn atmosphere of the city wall, the city is much more noisy and lively.

Some time has passed since the glorious festival, but the strong festive atmosphere has not yet dissipated, decorating the peaceful life under the chaos.

The wide streets, the traffic is busy, shoulder to shoulder, a bustling scene.

The Abyss Invasion has brought unimaginable trauma to everyone. Whether it is ordinary people and merchants, or nobles and transcendents, in this calamity, too many people have died.

Even if Valoran led to suppress it with all his might, the abyss events in the territory have not stopped, and they often occur frequently, which brings a looming sense of oppression to everyone.

The arrival of the glorious festival day has become a cathartic channel in due course, and countless people have taken to the streets to hide their inner sorrow and welcome a new life.

Yesterday's all kinds are vivid, but they are as sad as a different world.

In addition, there are also well-informed people, who communicate through magic, know the purgatory scene outside Valoran's territory, starve all over the wilderness, corpses and blood seas, and become abysses on the ground alive.

God? Temple? Aristocrat?

In the face of the abyss, interests are paramount, not all countries will care about the lives of their people, and those in power ignore the prayers of the disadvantaged and watch from the sidelines.

Ordinary people have to make difficult choices for their lives, break the shackles of morality, and expose the evil in their hearts.

This also made many people realize the difference between Valoran Territory, especially after the reform of the aristocratic system and the emergence of Hextech, they saw the hope of breaking the inherent hierarchy and advancing upward.

Noble area, the residence of the Daller family.

Brilliant magical lights shine on this simple and exquisite complex, and there are many magnificent carriages engraved with noble coats of arms at the door.

The Daller family, who had turned to Modrian in the early days, were one of the biggest beneficiaries of Valoran's reforms, and had an extraordinary position in the new aristocracy.

Click! Click!

The sound of hurried footsteps broke the silence of the study, and the lights dimmed, and Gardner frowned lightly and looked at the door.

The door opened, and Hewlett entered the study with a solemn expression.

"Something happened, there is news circulating in the city that the kingdom of Besilik has once again started a war and is fighting against the Noxian legions in the territory of the Blackwood Province."

Gardner put down the document in his hand and said in an unusually calm tone, "Are you sure about the authenticity of the news?" ”

"Can't be sure." Hewlett shook his head slightly, replied in a low voice, as if remembering something, and continued: "But a few days ago, Lord Caterina suddenly left for the Nuu Fortress. ”

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Gardner tapped on his desk, his expression calm: "Forget about Lord Katarina, that's not what we should discuss." ”

"Since the territory has not released any news, these so-called news are demagoguery and gossip."

"Arrange for the city guards to be dispatched to arrest those who spread rumors, no matter what their identity, and go directly to prison."

"Yes!" Hewlett whispered, ready to leave.

"Wait, let the Dacama family cooperate, I suspect someone is secretly causing trouble." Gardner got up and looked at Limontanlu on the windowsill with a cold expression.

"Is this trying to disrupt the rear?"

The power and terror of the Bešilik Kingdom was forged by the bloody war with the Stoke Kingdom that lasted for hundreds of years.

Even if Valoran led the army of lizardmen in the Great Plains of Shatar, it would not be able to completely dispel the panic in the hearts of ordinary people.

"Do we need to contact Horace?" Hewlett thought for a moment and asked, saying that any movement in the Valoran Territory was worth the attention of the Daller family.

"No, remember to send the action record to Lord Svein when you're done." Gardner commanded that Svein's existence was not as simple as sitting in Limontamlu, and he guessed that there must be deeper considerations.

"Yes!" Receiving the order, Hewlett left the study and immediately went to the camp of the city guards.

The lights flickered, and Gardner leaned against the windowsill overlooking Limontanlu, with the occasional crow circling.

"The Abyss invasion is not over yet, but the kingdom of Besilik is once again provoking war?"

"It seems that our lord has encountered a lot of difficulties, and I hope to get through it smoothly."

Whatever the case may be, the Dallets have no other ideas, and Gardner has firmly followed the idea of Valoran after the end of the Great Plains War in Shatar.

Even with the reform of the aristocratic system, the Daller family lost its original status and interests.

But now, it seems that the identity of the new aristocracy is more suitable for the Daller family, and the family is showing a thriving appearance inside and outside.

"Old nobles? A group of people who enjoy vested interests. ”

"Sooner or later, it will be eliminated by the torrent of history and become meaningless antiques."

Gardner whispered, behind this rumor incident, it was not difficult for him to guess what some people thought, and maybe there was a temptation outside the territory?

......

......

Perris Castle.

The festive atmosphere filled the interior and outside, and the smiling servants and soldiers decorated the castle as if they were celebrating something.

Viscount Brooke sat in the castle living room, a smile on his calm face, receiving the blessings of everyone.

Late yesterday night, the Perris family welcomed a new heir, the newborn Vaughn Peris, who is also the half-brother of Modrian and Sofia.

This also reassured Viscount Brooke's many followers.

The rise of Modrian and the death of Kadir have put many followers of the Perris family under inexplicable pressure.

Especially now that the Valoran Territory has become more and more powerful, they have tasted an extremely bitter taste, and even the previous few abyssal invasions, if it weren't for the support of the Valoran Territory, the Perris Territory would have already turned into an abyssal scorched earth.

Fortunately, now Viscount Brooke has another heir, and they see a little hope as followers..... The hope of establishing a bond with Valoran Collar.

Click! Click!

Hurried footsteps sounded, and Davide walked into the living room with a solemn expression, and after seeing the many followers, he moved to Viscount Brooke's side and whispered softly.

"Go down first." After listening to the report, Viscount Brooke remained calm, waved his hand, and motioned for his followers to leave, leaving Sophia and Benny, as well as Crane.

By the time the followers had left, the living room seemed empty.

Davide took a step forward at the right time and said in a deep voice: "Miss Sophia, Lord Benny, early this morning, rumors suddenly circulated in Perris Castle that Valoran Territory was about to fall into the wave of war in the Kingdom of Besilik, and there was no time to take care of too much. ”

"In addition, there are some remarks that the Abyss Invasion will break out again, causing territorial riots and causing panic in the people."

Hearing this, Sophia frowned, and immediately said in a condensed voice: "Valoran will definitely be fine, father, these rumors must be curbed." ”

What she saw and heard in the wilderness plains made her faintly see the Valoran Territory on the other side, which was far from the terrifying strength that outsiders could imagine.

"If Uncle Davide can't handle it, Butler Crane, and Uncle Benny, I think they'll be able to do it."

Davide, the deputy head of the Crimson Shield Legion in Perris's territory, is a powerful knight.

Hearing Sophia's unkind words, he looked at Viscount Brooke with a hesitant expression, waiting silently.

"Pass my orders to impose martial law on the territory from this day."

"Rumormongers, kill! Disturbers, kill! Those who shake the hearts of the people, kill! ”

"Yes!" Davide immediately took the order, clenching the long sword at his waist, his face full of murderous anger.

Although there is a generational relationship, Sophia's status is far higher than him, and his words that are close to reprimand make him dare not have a little resentment.

And those who spread rumors as a source, who have no status to speak of, and strangers who have become enemies of the territory will be good targets for venting.

"Steward Crane, Uncle Benny, please assist Davide, stabilize people's hearts, and don't let any rumors spread from Perrys's territory."

After Sophia finished speaking, she looked at Viscount Brooke, who was sitting upright, and said softly: "Father, we can never go back to the past, but the bond of blood will not disappear. ”

"Believe in Modrian, believe in Valoran, this will be the most correct decision for the Perris family."

After saying these words, Sophia had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly thought of Anne's existence, whether it was that Modrian had already considered everything that was happening, and specially arranged for Anne to accompany her to Peris's territory.

Recalling the journey, she was amazed by Modrian's growth and delighted to see the current situation happen.
