Chapter 163: The Nord Family's Deserters
In the real world, on the shores of the Snow Country, the battle between Roland Kevin and Elvi has come to an end. Roland and Kevin fell behind.
Kevin was entangled in Elve's whip and couldn't move, while Roland ran out of mental power and could only sit in front of the tent and watch Elvi approach.
Elvi walked gracefully towards the tent.
"Get out of the way!"
"I've never had a woman ask me to get out of the way when she faced me, and today was the first time. Roland jokingly said that he and Elvi were old acquaintances, and knew that the other party would not really kill him, so he did not move.
"Hmph," Erwei leaned over to look at Roland, who had no strength to fight back, and said mockingly: "The two cadres of the Nord family are really extraordinary, and they are still holding on in this situation, this chivalry is really touching, but are you using your strength in the wrong place? What kind of performance did you show in the great battle where your family was destroyed? You ran away with your tail between your legs!"
"There is nothing dishonorable about us withdrawing to protect the county lord. Roland said calmly.
"Hehe, the county lord of the rebel family, what honor is it to protect her?" Elvie scoffed.
"Nonsense! We are framed!" Kevin, who was bound by the whip, lay on the ground and said angrily, "It's not that our Nord family's military exploits are too prominent, so we are jealous, Hemod's achievements are high, and the emperor can't tolerate him, so we listened to those lackeys of the Tass family to frame us for slander and charged us with rebellion." ”
Evidence of the Nord's rebellion is several letters bearing the personal seal of the head of the family, Hermod, suggesting that he was going to stage a coup d'état, calling on the various lords to respond to his actions and rebel.
This evidence seems to be credible, but in fact, as long as someone within the Nord family can steal Hemod's personal seal, these letters can be forged.
"There's a traitor in the family! The so-called evidence is that traitor's ghost, maybe it is the ghost of which family planted it in the Nord family. This is simply a political conspiracy, and history will eventually restore the truth! Justice will eventually be served!"
Kevin's fighting spirit burned again, and his potential was once again stimulated, Elway's whip was actually broken by him, and Kevin reached out and raised his hand to the sky.
The water vapor in the sky quickly condensed, and an icy meteor fell from the sky and smashed into Elvi.
The curtain of battle opened again.
On the fourth floor of the castle, on the top floor, at the end of the deep corridor, was the study of the Nord lord, Hemod. The night was already dark, but the study was still lit.
The snow marks stuck to the door of the study, and he took a deep breath to calm his nerves.
Roland had told him that there were only three people he hadn't tested: Jean and her sister Suvia, and her father, Hermod. But these three people are the ones who are least likely to be traitors.
Jean is the main body of the pilgrimage path, it must not be a person who has an affair with the darkness, Suvia is Jean's sister, and has always been with her, if it is really related to the darkness, it is impossible for Jean to be unconscious, besides, the bird food is what she gave herself. And Hemod is the head of the Nord family, and the entire family is his, how can he be a traitor?
But in order to find out the truth, he decided to go to Jean's father Hemod first to test it, and if he really didn't have a problem, then he could also get some clues from him.
The snow marks were plastered on the door of Hemod's study, trying to hear what was going on inside.
As soon as he put his ear on it, a strange and peculiar woman's voice suddenly came from behind him: "Sneaky little thing, are you eavesdropping?"
Her voice was ethereal, as if coming from a container.
This greeting startled Xue Zhen: there was a person standing behind him in the narrow corridor, and he didn't even notice it!
He looked back in surprise and saw a ...... standing behind him Archangel.
Dressed in quaint knight's armor, it is as if a figure in an oil painting has stepped out of the frame and into reality.
She wasn't human, her entire body was a translucent phanther that shimmered, and Snow Marks found her to bear a resemblance to the owl on her shoulder.
She wears a graceful and light armor and wears a Viking helmet that resembles a bell hat that covers the upper part of her face, including her eyes. Only the part below the nose is exposed, and the red lips are bright like fire.
"You...... You are...... What creature?"
"What the hell are you trying to do?" the archangel drew his dagger and looked unkind.
"I ...... I'm coming to Hemod......"
The archangel didn't move, but Snowmark felt as if a scrutinizing gaze was shining at her through her helmet.
"Suna, let him in. A majestic order came from the door.
