Sitting in the small room, the woman in front of Ewen was a little stunned.

She had thought that Ewen had given her money and brought her to this room to do something unspeakable, but now she was being asked to sit here and wait for her to tell her story?

But that's fine, it used to be a feeling of selling out, but now it seems to be selling intelligence?

The woman began to talk to Ewen about why Kitayama Castle had been in such chaos lately.

"In fact, a few months ago, Beishan City was still a city of order, and even just a month ago, order was still preserved, at most, there were only some violations of discipline in some remote corners, and the members of the city guards and the Mage Tower were also monitoring all corners of the city, arresting all those who violated the order."

The woman sighed, shook the red wine in her hand, and seemed to be still recalling the environment at that time: "But unfortunately, with a series of things happening, the order of Beishan City quickly collapsed. ”

The woman's name was Catherine, who was once a well-known courtesan in North Hill City, the daughter of a lord and a member of the upper circle.

Because of this, Catherine knows far more than the others, and Ewen is very glad that she chose the right person in the first place.

Two or three months ago, Kitayama Castle was still similar to any other city, under the control of officials and nobles, and together with the many mages of the Mage Tower, they monitored all violations of the law and maintained a semblance of good order.

But one day, the patrolling city guards began to be attacked frequently, and some nobles secretly obstructed the investigation to the depths.

The beginning of the matter was still under control, until many rumors began to circulate in the city, all of which were directed at the city's administrators at all levels, bombarding the injustices hidden in the shadows, exposing various official violations of law and discipline, and trying to control public opinion and induce countless people and upper-class people to oppose each other.

Some aristocrats also began to stand clearly opposite the administrators, and it was not clear whether they were behind the affair or whether they could profit from it.

In short, the city guards began to be hindered by the people, and the mages of the mage tower did not dare to act recklessly, so they were forced to interrupt the task of patrolling the streets and temporarily hide from the current predicament.

At this point, it's not too bad.

But no one knew that after these city guards retreated back to the barracks, the commanders of all ranks began to be replaced, and some new faces took office.

At the same time, the mages in the mage tower also began to be persecuted by public opinion, and some people who could not vent from the city guards began to turn to mages, causing serious harm to them.

The strength of the mages is there, but because they are constrained by the regulations, they can't do anything to the malicious people who come to the door without authorization, so they can only stay in the mage tower aggrieved.

When this kind of thing intensified, the mages in the mage tower could no longer stand this situation, and they all left the mage tower one by one and went to other cities.

As a result, as the maintenance of the main order, the city guards and mages were forced to leave their posts, so what kind of ending did it have in Beishan City?

The situation is bad.

Even a courtesan like Catherine is a person with a certain amount of intelligence, and she certainly sees that something is wrong from the increasingly chaotic situation.

The people on the street were instigated by some inexplicable people, and countless people left their jobs behind and roamed the streets wantonly. There are also some powerful adventurers and mercenaries who are doing something in secret.

The situation became more and more dangerous, until half a month ago, an unprecedented chaos broke out.

The news that the bandit suppression force was defeated by the bandits of Chang'an Mountain, and the news of heavy casualties came, and many people began to rumor that the robbers of Chang'an Mountain would soon come to take revenge on Beishan City, and the chaos in the city intensified for a while.

Some disturbances that should not have occurred in the first place have also continued to appear under such pressure.

The various thugs who stayed in the slums, the gangsters who roamed the streets, began to smash and loot some civilian homes, and just when many people thought they were looking for death, everyone realized that the situation had reached a fatal point.

The mages of the Mage Tower have left, and without spells as a means of monitoring, the evils that occur in many places cannot be detected at all.

The city guards huddled in the barracks had been humiliated for a long time, and they wanted to kill everyone outside, and the new commanders brainwashed them again and again, making them hate everyone.

Even some clear-minded and righteous city guards will be screened out by them, and they will either kick them out of the ranks of the city guards, or simply kill them secretly and throw their bodies outside the city.

Suddenly, the city guards also fell completely, watching the tragedy happen and ignoring it.

When the people in Beishan City found out that the city guards didn't care about it at all, the evil hidden in their hearts suddenly broke out.

Robbery and murder, roadblock extortion, storming the management organization, and even in the later stage of development, there began to be a tragedy.

Such a chaotic scene, not to mention ordinary people, even many nobles also know that the situation is not good, things have far exceeded their imagination, and they want to save the situation.

But soon they found out that behind this matter, there was a deep hidden mastermind, and all their actions were countered, even falling into it.

At this time, not to mention restoring the original order, the entire city seemed to be completely in the hands of the other party, and the chaos began to further intensify.

The gangsters dared to vent their violence in the daytime, and the knives of murder were blunted. Thousands of people died in just a few days, and countless began to regret what they had done and began to beg for the protection of the city guards.

But the city guards refused their request and closed the camp gates completely.

So the people in desperation began to seek various ways to save themselves, but Catherine, as a bystander, could perceive that as long as there was any possibility that might lead to the return of order, it would be shattered in the hands of the people behind the scenes, and they seemed to be completely chaotic in Kitayama City, and no one knew what they wanted to do.

Eventually, some people formed their own forces to protect themselves, and some people turned to powerful beings to seek safety, such as the Dark Elemental Hotel, which became a refuge for many people.

There are a few such shelters in Kitayama Castle, but some of the smaller ones hear every few days that they have been breached and everyone has no place to bury.

The situation has eroded to this point, and Kitayama Castle is like a hell on earth, exuding Sen Sen's malice towards everyone.

Ewen touched his chin, feeling that the people of the Doomsday Sect really deserved to be killed.

Just when he was still thinking about this, the system gave him a hint intimately.

"You've got the main quest - Get back to order!"

"Bring order back to Kitayama Castle!"
