Alyssa brought back the same swordsman who had been with the Uncrowned Crown, who had been hung up at the beginning of the battle, and who had been resurrected in a nearby temple and returned with his teammates. He was joined by others, a tall halfling Nightingale, an Iron Guard, a Ranger, and a bald monk, all of whom were the Electors.

On the way, they met Alyssa, who had returned from the snowstorm, and Alyssa, as a good nightingale, spotted each other and recognized the swordsman at a sight. She took the initiative to greet them, and knowing that the Uncrowned Crown was still in this place, they also returned to the platform with Alyssa.

A few people boarded the airship on Mr. Graystone's back, still a little restrained, looking at the thick carpet in the cabin, and at their boots stained with wind and snow and mud, a little hesitant, not knowing whether to come in or not.

They had probably never seen such a large beast platform, with luxurious interior furnishings (at least in their opinion), and most of the adventure parties with such a platform had a deep background behind them, and those big guilds didn't have a good attitude towards marginalized people like them.

"It's okay, come in," Alyssa beckoned to them, "The carpet is the fur of the floating dragon, and it has its own cleaning function. ”

This fur was a gift from the hand of Sir Roban Princess Tobrian to the 'Heroes of Fenris', and Fang Yu was eager to nail a bronze nameplate to the floor to explain the matter, but he had to give up because it seemed too embarrassing.

The five of them crept in, needless to say, the swordsman, among the five, the warrior monk was tall and could only keep his head down, and the Iron Guard was a rare girl, about the same size as Sophie, and only the ranger seemed calmer - but not calm after all, it was generally not suitable for the profession of ranger.

The tall halfling, blinking at Sophie, recognized Her Royal Highness the silver princess of Vislan. The others froze for a moment before they reacted, thinking only that they were Silver Vislain.

The tall warrior monk turned out to be a fan of Sophie, stammering a notebook and asking Her Royal Highness the princess of Silver Vislan to sign it for him, Sophie was so generous that she took the book and happily wrote a word of wish to the other party on it, and signed her name.

Seeing the other party's skillful appearance, Fang Yu couldn't help but ask a little curiously: "You often do such things." ”

Sophie brushed her hair, lowered her head and wrote while nodding, and replied, "Each guild has a star-making plan, just get used to it." She smiled back and asked, "Do you want me to sign your name too?" ”

“…… Will it be worth the money later? Before Fang Yu finished speaking, he couldn't help but snort.

It turned out that Alyssa stepped on him while people were not looking.

She couldn't help but hold her forehead, her captain was too embarrassed, there were obviously outsiders here.

But Sophie smiled a little happily, she was happy to see this guy's humiliating appearance-

Seeing the intimacy between the two, a few people were still a little surprised to guess Fang Yuan's identity, thinking to themselves who was this sacred, and he was so close to the little princess of Silver Veslan? Also a brigade member of Silver Vislan?

However, the shame is the shame, Fang Yu still quickly asked the intention of several people.

The charcoal burned slowly, and the fire dimmed a little.

The room was quiet, but it didn't take long for a lot of people to come, Luo Yu, Tianlan and Parker heard that a guest had arrived, and they all rushed over, and the big cat man was the last to arrive, and after sneaking into the room, he closed the door with his back hand and sat down on the sofa.

Only the box thundered and went to bed on time at nine o'clock, and the sky fell did not hinder him, and Kita was afraid of life, and did not come out of her room with Sky Blue.

When they saw the Lion Paladin, they were even more surprised, the people of the wilderness of Rotao were still very rare in Kaulin-Ishurian.

After listening to the answers of several people on the side, Fang Yu pondered for a moment and asked, "So, you are also members of the Southern Alliance?" ”

The swordsman nodded, and after seeing the state of the uncrowned crown, he was relieved to learn that the other party was okay. And after getting acquainted with Fang Yu and his party, they were not as restrained as before and relaxed.

It's just that when they heard Fang Yuan's question, several people couldn't help but look at each other, and they seemed a little silent.

"What's wrong?"

“…… Actually, we knew there would be such a day," Miss Iron Guard clenched her fists and said in a somewhat hoarse voice: "Since the first half of the year, the kingdom has been suppressing us, and President Resonance has thought of many ways, but it has no effect at all. President Ye has also been in the second world and has not come back......"

Several of them all belong to a small guild that is not well known, but according to them, in the southern border, large and small guilds are under the protection of the Alliance, and their guild is naturally no exception.

Tianlan was a little surprised when she heard the other party's answer, and couldn't help asking, "Why?" How could the kingdom suppress you, isn't it the hand of the Super Athletic Alliance? ”

The swordsman shook his head slightly, "That's not true. ”

"It's because of the Alchemist Alliance." Only then did Fang Yu speak.

The Southern Alliance is not actually a pure organization of Electors, and its background dates back almost to the Battle of Byrne-

In the aftermath of the Great War, the Electors and the Natives of the South were able to rebuild their homes and fight against the threat of potential cultists, and the rudiments of this alliance were established in the context of in-depth cooperation between the two sides.

In the early days, of course, it was not a true alliance, and its name was very different from today's.

At the time, it was actually called the Pan-Southern Cooperation Alliance, which was just an intelligence-sharing system across the South; It was born primarily to prevent another invasion of the Empire and to infiltrate the guilds by cultists, who were rampant at the time.

However, as time went on, the cooperation between the natives and the Electors, and between the Electors and the Electors, became more and more organized, and gradually formed a large guild union that spanned the Cuilin, Van Rik, Dois, and the Central Mountains.

Unlike the Empire, Kaurin-Ihurian was not opposed to such autonomous organizations, and was even approved by the royal family at the time. About a decade ago, a mutual agreement was reached between the three largest guilds in the South, the Song of the Ashes, the Dragon Hunter, and the Alliance of Remembrance and Alchemists, and the Pan-Southern Cooperation Alliance was officially renamed the Southern Alliance.

It was at that moment that history was written.

Tianlan listened to Fang Yuan's description and finally understood: "So because of the political struggle of the royal family, the Alchemist Alliance is a thorn in the side of the prime minister, so it is natural that the Southern Alliance will also suffer from the pond fish?" ”

Fang Yu nodded.

But he glanced at Sophie, and the two of them had a very tacit understanding that they did not say anything more on the subject.

What Tianlan said is just a façade, and there are obviously deeper reasons why the Southern Alliance has come to this point.

This organization was first established on the basis of the Alchemist Alliance, but over the years, its main body has been the vast Southern Elector's Guild, and it is difficult for a single royal family of Kaulin-Ihurian to have such a profound influence on the Electors.

But as Her Royal Highness the Silver Vislan Princess has mentioned before, the Chinese Super Athletic League has been deeply involved in this internal power change between Kaulin-Isurian, and may even have abandoned the principle of neutrality and sided with the prime minister and the young king.

It is precisely because of this that it will cause dissatisfaction on the Chinese side of Xingmen Port-

However, these words obviously cannot be put on the table.

The charcoal fire burned quietly.

Luo Yu added a little charcoal, stirred the fire, and in order to prevent the room from being too dry, he used a spell to add a cloud of water vapor into it, and the fire light shone slightly, reflecting on everyone's faces.

Attila knocked lightly on the door outside, bringing in a steaming drink with Alyssa.

The Iron Guard Maiden took the cup in both hands and gently thanked Miss Elf.

Wind and snow swept through the patio and swept in from the outside, but the inside was warm and didn't feel cold.

"Only drinks?" Lady Papamo's eyes widened and she asked, 'very cute' - of course he would have to change his look in front of outsiders, as he had done at Masunke Creek Station, "Where's my supper?" ”

"Nope." Alyssa couldn't help but smile.

"According to the talent of the Paparals," Lady Papamo glanced at her pocket watch, "I have a quarter of an hour to die, Alyssa." ”

"And in that temple are you going to be resurrected?"

Sky Blue giggled as she listened.

The Iron Guardian Maiden and a few others listened to the conversation between the two on the side, and couldn't help but feel a little envious in their hearts, recalling the situation before their guild.

Sophie looked at a few people and suddenly spoke: "Can you tell us what the situation is in the south now?" There's a lot of news in the community, but it's hard to tell if it's true or not, and it's still under control. ”

The girl nodded.

She took a gentle sip of the hot drink—Attila's secret tea, with honey and a little sweeter—and she felt her body getting warmer, so she put down her cup, thought for a moment, and whispered:

"Actually, it's similar to what you said, the Alchemist Alliance is regarded by the outside world as Prince Coleman's home base, and the Prime Minister's party naturally sees it as a thorn in the side, and they all want to get rid of it and ...... it quickly."

“…… And this alliance itself is mainly supported by some aristocratic families in the south, including some ancient artisan families, who are themselves members of the Alchemist Alliance. Therefore, the prime minister's side first took action against these well-known aristocratic families, ordered their current heads of families to hand over their positions, and then supported others to ascend to the throne......"

“…… This was certainly not so easy, and the nobles openly rebelled against this move, which led to more than one conflict. What's more, the kingdom further increased taxes on the south, which affected even the interests of ordinary electees. ”

"Soon, the conflict quickly developed into a riot......

Fang Yu suddenly realized that this was the origin of the July riots.

However, after all, Kaulin-Ishurian did not rely on the nobles to rule the region, but the consuls directly appointed by the royal families in each region, and the consuls held the command of the army, so these riots did not come to fruition.

"After that, Nan conveniently declared martial law."

“…… Even in order to manage the Electors, the royal family also requested the assistance of the Super Athletic League...... The coalition issued two bans prohibiting the elect from participating in the affairs of the Indigenous peoples. At the same time, Ragnarok has been sent to the south to help suppress the forces of the Free Elect here......" the girl replied softly.

Sophie sighed softly when she heard this: "Only the state officials are allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light lamps." ”

“Ragnarok？” Fang Yu looked a little surprised: "Ragnarok is also in the southern realm now?" ”

"You only finished out half of their team today, don't you know?" Sophie looked at the guy a little amusedly, "Didn't I tell you about it?" ”

Fang Yu opened his mouth wide, as if he had been hit by a petrification technique: "Wait a minute, we are dealing with Ragnarok's people today?" ”

"Or else?"

"But, isn't that the Shadow Throne?" After so many days, of course, he had already figured out what guild the black flame emblem represented. It's just that he never expected that the person who fought with him today would be Ragnarok's person.

Fang Yu couldn't help but wipe his sweat, the other party was even more powerful than he imagined, at least much more difficult to deal with than the person who listened to the oath of the rain and the blood alliance, he originally thought that it was because the guilds in the south were generally stronger.

"That's Ragnarok's elite regiment, at least in reserve."

"Are the people of Ragnarok so weak?" Fang Yu asked sweating profusely, apparently this realization was somewhat unexpected by him, and in his impression, all the members of Ragnarok were omnipotent.

Of course, that's Valhalla, the elite brigade of the Second World Ragnarok.

Sophie couldn't help but smile: "Don't let Odin hear what you say, otherwise he will definitely kill you." ”

The name Odin is clearly very intimidating.

Fang Yu couldn't help but subconsciously look out of the door, as if he was afraid that one of the Ten Kings of the Warrior was standing in that place.

However, the conversation between the two obviously shook the swordsmen.

Solving an elite group of Ragnarok in a conversation and laughing is a bit beyond their understanding anyway, but if you think about it, isn't it normal for the people of Silver Vislan to have this strength?

It's just that a few people can't help but sit a little straighter.

For fear of accidentally upsetting these people in front of him, he will execute them on the spot.

Sophie saw the nervousness of several people, and smiled and soothed, "Don't worry, our captain is gentle with his own people, especially girls—but then?" All of this is a few months old, and I know a few ...... But what about after that? ”

The Iron Guard Maiden glanced at the others before nodding and replying, "After the failure of the rebellion, the nobles had to choose to compromise in order to keep their identity. And those who support it are naturally biased towards the prime minister's side......"

"So after cutting off these outer wings, the royal family began to attack the three pillars of the Alchemist Alliance......"

"Three pillars?" Sky Blue asked curiously.

"Sky Blue, don't interrupt." Fang Yu glared at her.

However, he still took the initiative to explain to the other party the origin of the three pillars of the Southern Alchemist Alliance, which were actually the three ancient noble families at the beginning of the establishment of this guild - they were the Sirin-Sibika family, the Phoenix family and the Erwin family.

Among them, the Cillin-Sibika family is the founder of the Rose Workshop, needless to say. The Phoenix family is the oldest aristocratic family in the south, and the legend of the Phoenix Holy Sword and the first Phoenix Duke is familiar to the aborigines and electors of the north and south of Kaolind.

Moreover, the first head of the Maudekaiser family was one of the founders of Kaulin-Ishurian, and his status was even more extraordinary.

The last of them is the Elwyn family, a family of elemental envoys who have given birth to a number of court mages of Kaulin-Ishurian. Even before Sir Roban, the last court mage of the kingdom was a descendant of this family.

The Erwin family was generally rarely involved in the affairs of the kingdom, as if it were naturally independent in the political territory of Kaulin-Ihurian, and its position was generally firmly established. And this time, the royal family moved the knife against the southern border, and as expected, it automatically ignored this political force.

Even if the other party is also an indispensable member of the Southern Alchemist Alliance.

"Actually, our mission is also related to this matter." The swordsman spoke suddenly.

Hearing this, the Iron Guardian Maiden nodded: "The Southern Alliance and the Alchemist Alliance are cold-tongued, of course we understand this. It's just that the Elwyn family is strictly neutral, so the only thing we can rely on is the Phoenix family and the Rose family of Sirin-Sibica......"

“…… So when the Prime Minister's side was attacking the Cillin-Sbicca family, we were suddenly commissioned by the Alliance to escort Miss Drissy to the north. The Iron Guard Maiden's voice became more and more hoarse, and she couldn't help but clench her fists: "...... Obviously, we have all worked so hard, but I didn't expect it...... It's still a step too late. ”

Hearing her say that this task was coming, Fang Yu couldn't help asking, "What is the purpose of going to the north?" ”

"We don't know," replied the swordsman, "that it was commissioned by Miss Drissy's father, who promised to be on our side as soon as we safely delivered Miss Dries to Goland, and found those people." ”

The bald warrior monk also said: "Actually, this task is far more than just one of our guilds and teams, but our goal is the smallest, so Miss Dressy will hide in our team......

Fang Yu frowned, a little puzzled in his heart.

"Find those people?"

"I don't know the specifics, but President Resonance told us that it should be the help of the Sirin-Sbika family, probably their in-law family...... But we don't understand the relationship between their nobles......" The swordsman shook his head.

Fang Yu subconsciously thought of someone.

Sylvede's father.

Sir Marvi was missing, but a portion of his fleet had arrived at Golland, where many of his old men were still present.

Sylvid had told him about it, but the royal family was too closely monitoring the fleet, and she didn't choose to meet with these old subordinates when she was in Golland.

Sophie asked at this time: "Miss Drissy's father, isn't Count Xilin already under house arrest, and the Xilin family is still too busy to take care of themselves, how can they help you?" ”

It was about that the mission had failed, so several people no longer hid anything, and the swordsman replied directly:

"Miss Dress's father is supposed to be out of trouble, and as long as he is alive, the Rose Workshop will be on our side...... Of course, only if the Southern Alliance still exists. ”

After he finished speaking, he also sighed.

"What?" Fang Yu was taken aback, he also promised Sylvid to rescue Driss's father, but he didn't expect to learn that the other party had been rescued in the next moment: "Count Xilin is out of trouble?" ”

The swordsman nodded.

"It should be the person who President Ye Hua personally went to rescue."

He replied, "The reason why President Ye Hua has never appeared is also because of this. ”

……
