Chapter 62: The Secret Conversation (Volume 1, Final Chapter)
Kelnilo Empire, Frumi City.
The cold wind was fierce, and the fine snow flakes became like small grains of sand, swept wildly in the wind, and the Kelniro Empire ushered in the most difficult time of the year. Even a northern town like Frumi became depressed at this time.
Although located in the northernmost part of the empire, the United Kingdom of Lothar has the largest veins in the entire empire and even the entire continent, plus the cooperation with the United Kingdom of Lothar in the craft of blacksmithing. , resulting in the city of Frumi, also possessed the steel smelting and forging technology that was famous throughout the continent.
This cooperation is not free, and the price is to share 40% of the vein production in Frumi City.
Although it is snowing heavily, if you walk down the streets of Frumi and the sound of tinkling hammers and anvils, it is the most beautiful piece of music of this winter.
With a large number of blacksmiths, coupled with a steady stream of high-quality raw materials, Frumi's weapons and armor have been sold to other countries on the continent through various human caravans.
Frumi even has more defenders than the front-line cities, and as a major town in the north, it does deserve such treatment!
Almost from east to west across most of the continent of the Bailing Mountains, is a forbidden area for all human beings, in addition to the bad weather, the many beasts living in the Bailing Mountains, can survive in this harsh weather, are through the food chain survival of the fittest process and selected by the strong, compared to the beasts in other parts of the continent, are a grade stronger!
At the north gate of Frumi, some heavily armed soldiers are on duty in the snowflakes flying in the sky, these soldiers are wearing a layer of gloves on their hands, this is not just to keep warm, in such a cold weather, if there is no glove as a protective measure, the weapon that has been frozen by the ice will stick to the skin, I am afraid that a layer of skin will be torn off directly!
"Look, Captain!"
At this time, on the official road in the distance, a carriage suddenly appeared, and the monotonous snow scene was rarely broken, and these soldiers immediately cheered up.
The official road at the North City Gate, it is difficult to see pedestrians and vehicles passing by on weekdays, and from here, you can either enter the deserted Bailing Mountain Range or go to the Valsacus Prison, which everyone in the continent has heard of.
"It's Wishal's carriage, my lordβ"
As soon as the carriage got a little closer, the soldiers immediately noticed the coat of arms of Wishaler engraved on the carriage of the carriage.
"Don't worry, the carriage of Wishaler coming from here must have come from the Prison of Walthas. The captain of the squad waved his hand, and the other soldiers immediately stood in a line in front of the city gate, their spears pointing forward.
The carriage slowed down and stopped in front of the city gates.
"What are you doing here?" the captain asked sharply, he could tell from the decoration of the carriage that there was a nobleman sitting in the carriage, but it was Kelnilo, and even if the Grand Duke of Wishaler arrived, they would not be the slightest polite.
"My master, I want to see your Captain Kate. The coachman of the carriage, who was also a knight's standard outfit, said as he drew a short sword from the scabbard at his waist and handed it to the captain.
The other soldiers around him were about to have a seizure, and the squad leader's face suddenly changed, and he immediately held the short sword in both hands and handed it back to the knight, and waved his hand violently: "Get out of the way." β
The knight gently whipped his horse, and the wheels of the carriage slowly drove towards the city with the sound of clattering snow.
"Your Excellency, you ...... What's going on?"
When the carriage was far away, the surrounding soldiers immediately gathered around.
"I don't know the specific situation, but the silver sword just now is indeed the sword of Captain Kate, and it is a treasure left over from the ancient Demon Spirit War era, I didn't expect that the token of the adult would actually be in the hands of a nobleman in Wishal. The squad leader's voice became serious: "Today's matter, don't deliberately spread it in the barracks, did you hear it?"
"Yes!"
......
Count William looked at the general in front of him with some disdain, this fat man named Kate, was grabbing the roast meat on the large plate in front of him with his fleshy hand, and some greedily stuffed it into his mouth, as his Adam's apple slid up and down, the pieces of meat on both sides of his mouth were constantly writhing because of chewing.
"Goo-goo...... Well, of Westhal, Earl, tell me what you came for. The corners of Kate's mouth were stained with grains of salt, and the yellow grease reflected the firelight, and she spoke a little indistinctly.
Count William swallowed in disgust, he couldn't imagine that the ugly-looking fat man in front of him was actually the supreme military commander of Kelnilo's Northern Army.
"What do you mean, Lord Kelly, how is the search situation of the Legion Captain's troops in the Corridor of Death?"
Kate swallowed the roast meat in her mouth, and even the salt grains on her fingers were slowly licked clean by him. Kate didn't seem to notice the other party's impatience, picked up the bell next to her seat and shook it.
Earl William's eyelids jumped suddenly, no matter what, this is the land of Kelnilo, in the face of interests, even if he is killed here by the other party, it is not impossible.
A soldier in a gray suit pushed open the door and fell to one knee in front of Kate.
"You go and arrange for the sentry at noon today, and the sentry at the north gate today, all of them will be killed, understand?"
The soldier nodded, then turned and walked out the door.
"By the way, bring me another plate of roast beef, the meat is a little old, if this chef can't get it right, he can get out. β
The oil, water and phlegm in Kate's throat mixed together and made a purring sound.
"I understand, my lord, I will arrange for someone to prepare immediately. β
It wasn't until the soldiers left that Kate focused on Earl William.
"You Wishaler are going to make us wipe our butts. Kate suddenly sneered: "Here in the Corridor of Death, our actions are not so convenient. β
"Lord Kate, since we are all partners, why do you need to ridicule us? Miss Maylis, didn't you take the initiative to cooperate in the first place?" Count William said coldly: "After all, we can't come to the matter of the Death Corridor, and I hope your country can contribute more." β
"You can rest assured. Kate picked up the handkerchief next to the seat and wiped her slippery and greasy fingers: "Earl William is coming this time, it shouldn't just be to talk about this matter, right?"
Earl William smiled slightly, "Of course it's more than that, Lord Kate, Lord Kelier wants to ask you, our two countries, launched an attack on the United Kingdom of Lothar after their deaths?"
