Chapter 1021: Grey Fort Weekly

After one more person on the couch, the cushion suddenly bent down a lot, and made a soft creaking sound.

Looks like the shopkeeper needs to be reminded to reinforce this thing a little more, Victor thought to himself, although the big bed is in the corner of the room, sometimes not everything has to be done in the bed, and changing places is often unexpectedly wonderful - compared to the two royal capitals, the tavern here is still a little less substantial.

In a few moments, Linglong had already packed up her drinks and spread out the newspaper in front of him.

"This is ......" Victor couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, only to see that the paper was neatly covered with dense small characters, just like those books he treasured at home!

Since he was a child, he thought that he had an extraordinary vision, and he had not only seen most of the strange things in the world, but even played with them with his own hands. Normally, when a commodity was placed in front of him, he could immediately tell how much it was worth, but the newspaper made Victor hesitate.

It is unlikely that such a neat and detailed handwriting was written by hand, in other words, it was most likely the result of stereotyping, which, given the cost of the latter, was generally used only for important and rarely modified dossiers, such as the Kingdom Codex.

The problem lies here, in order to achieve the best embossing effect, such books will put in the best materials possible, and the lambskin that has never been removed is only a basic requirement, and there are many gold-edged gemstones on the cover, highlighting the luxury and extraordinary, but also to ensure sufficient durability.

But what is this newspaper? The paper is obviously ordinary gray papyrus, of varying thickness, which melts when it is touched by water, and it has no cover of its own, and there is no protection at the corners, so even if you read it normally, you can't read it a few times. For him, it was like stuffing a pearl of the night into an iron ingot.

Victor couldn't help but think of what the maid had said before - the king intended to use this thing in place of the announcement, which meant that it would print new content in the future?

After asking about the doubts in his heart, he received an affirmative answer from the other party.

"Yes, the announcement at the time said that the newspaper would be published every other week, and the number would only increase, so that most people could see it. ”

And one serving is only ten bronze eagles.

He began to wonder how much wealth His Majesty Roland had looted in Hermes - such a thing that would lose a fortune once and the other party would want to do it for a long time?

The gem merchant who had previously thought there might be a business opportunity in this area had now dismissed the idea without a trace.

Whatever, Victor muttered to himself, anyway, it wasn't his money that was spent, what did it matter to him whether the other party made or lost?

With this in mind, he moved his gaze to the first page.

At the top is a bold headline: "Grey Fort Weekly."

The next full page contains the news of the king's imminent accession to the throne and the alliance between the Dawn Kingdom and the Grey Keep to fight the devil.

He'd heard about it for a long time, but only to the extent that he knew it was going on.

After just two sweeps, Victor was completely immersed in it.

It made him feel like he was holding his breath.

It was the first time he had seen the description of these two events in such detail from a high-level perspective, and unlike the gossip circulating in the streets, the newspaper records not only had the precise time and place, the cause, the process and the result, but also explained the reasons why they happened. In particular, the part of the Dawn Covenant - the dishonesty of the Moan royal family, the rebellion of the nobles, and the letter of help sent by thousands of miles, all of which ultimately constituted the reason for the Grey Keep's troops. After the three families defected, it was only natural that the new Lord of the Dawn would re-establish order in the kingdom under the leadership of Roland Wimbleton.

Even though he knew that these descriptions were not necessarily true, he found that he still unconsciously wanted to believe them—without them, because they were so complete that they were so tightly connected that it was hard to believe them or not.

In fact, if the other party dares to put this kind of thing in front of the stage, it is already convincing enough.

Victor ignored Linglong's presence for a moment, and couldn't wait to flip back.

The content of the second page is actually related to the devil - the writer wrote a complete record of the first army's expedition to the northwest wasteland and the attack on the devil before the beginning of winter.

It was the first time he had heard of it.

When he returned to Neverwinter, he only knew that a dinosaur had attacked the border, but he didn't expect the king to retaliate for this, not only penetrating the rumored dangerous forbidden land, but also giving his opponents a head-on blow, so that they would never dare to appear in the West easily—if the record is true, this matter can almost be described as "legendary"!

"How could such a thing happen?" was the thought that crossed Victor's mind the most.

Whether it is a thousand-mile run in the past half a month, or a life-and-death duel ten kilometers away, it is thrilling.

He even felt a shiver behind him when he saw the troops forming positions to defend themselves against waves of enemies falling from the sky.

Having been exposed to "black money" since childhood, he knows better than most people that this world is not as simple as the world imagines, and there are many restless forces hidden in the shadows that cannot be seen. So he wasn't too surprised when the news of the devil's appearance reached Dawn - probably the leaders of the Chamber of Commerce.

But that's about it.

The aristocratic merchants of Dawn still have their eyes on their own interests, and they are not interested in the battle of divine will that only stays on paper.

Victor never expected that Grey Keep would now clash head-on with them and win, which made him feel an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

He couldn't tell what it was, but it was reassuring and happy.

And this should have nothing to do with him.

Come to think of it, it was probably the word "human" that appeared many times in the newspaper that infected him, right?

For a moment, Victor seemed to feel that he was standing with the First Army of Grey Keep, and in front of the terrifying and powerful alien race, the gap between family and bloodline seemed to have faded a lot.

He took a deep breath, licked his slightly dry lips, and turned the third page.

The content on this piece of paper is much lighter, it is all trivia that happened in Neverwinter, and the title is quite novel. For example, "Shocked! Where did the explosion come from in the middle of the night? The detective team will take you to uncover the mystery!", "The water pipe cracked, and the road surface turned into an ice skating track!", "The bird's nose mushroom cooking guide that no winter people can't know", and so on......

Victor swept all the way down, and when he flipped to the back of the newspaper, he froze.

It was actually a black-and-white painting that took up half of the page, and the scenery in it was so vivid that it was difficult to look away for a while.

Two of the women stood hand in hand on the snowfield, with the white snow flying in the sky, which was incredibly beautiful, and below was a row of beautiful large characters.

"Art beyond time, gifts for the enthronement ceremony, performances by the Starflower Theatre and witches, written by His Majesty Roland, all in Wolf's Heart! Coming up at the end of the month! Available for pre-order now!"
