The afternoon after Li Xuan took Vivien's apprentice, the convoy arrived at Carouston City, a city that was even bigger than he had imagined.

Like the two cities he had passed through when he woke up, the first thing he saw was a tall wall of earth and stone, and a wide moat. The architectural style of this world is different from the architectural style on the earth, the towns here have a thick wall to enclose the whole town, it is to enclose the whole huge town, not just enclose the castle like the castle wall, the first time he saw the town wall, Li Xuan thought of the Great Wall of ancient China.

The town walls of Carroston are taller and thicker than the two towns I've seen before, with sentry posts every 100 meters and archers and crossbowmen patrolling the walls.

The convoy walked slowly along the huge suspension bridge into the cave, which is twenty or thirty meters deep, which means that the wall is twenty or thirty meters thick. Li Xuan was amazed by such a powerful fortification, but it was also difficult to imagine that even under such a powerful city wall defense, this city had changed hands several times, which made Li Xuan, who had never experienced war, faintly feel a layer of awe for this world in his heart.

The town is more prosperous than Li Xuan imagined, tall buildings, wide stone roads, orderly shops, pedestrians, Li Xuan can finally seriously observe the towns of this world, it is already late at night when he passes through the town in the past two weeks, and he set off to continue his journey at dawn on the second day of hastily rest.

Li Xuan on horseback watched many things around him from time to time, and the newly acquired younger brother Boris was considered well-informed, and he had been a mercenary who had traveled for many years before following Kashan. kept following Li Xuan to answer the introduction.

Caroston's martial arts are very strong, and within a short time of entering the city, Li Xuan saw several waves of mercenaries, and even a team of eight fully armed heavy cavalry. This was the first time Li Xuan saw a fully armed heavy cavalry, all armed from men to horses. The horse is protected by complete horse armor, and the horse face armor, horse neck armor, horse breastplate, horse belly armor and horse rump armor are neatly wrapped in all metal plates that wrap the horse except for the running feet.

The cavalry on horseback was even more exaggerated, with fully enclosed helmets, neck armor, cuirass, shoulder armor, arm armor, skirt armor, leg armor, chain gloves, and boot armor, and tight metal armor wrapped around the cavalry. Holding the reins in one hand and resting on the hilt of the sword at his waist with the other. The scabbard is dark brown leather, the length looks more than a meter long, and there is a handshake groove on the hilt, which is a one-handed sword.

"Sir, it looks like something big is going to happen in Carroston. Boris's low voice brought Li Xuan back to his senses, and he looked back at Boris.

"It's going to be a war, sir, the leader of that team just now is Knight Egger, who is the chief knight of the guard of Viscount Olin. He is also one of the six Knights of the Divine Domain in the city of Carouston. Boris whispered to Li Xuan.

"Divine Domain Knight?" Li Xuan's mind did not have much information about the Divine Domain Knight in Pisford's memory, only knowing that the Divine Domain Knight was a sixth-order legendary powerhouse in the human race, and he was very powerful.

"You know, Carroston only has six God's Domain cavalry teams. In normal times, there are no fully armed cavalry units to be seen. Boris said with some awe.

From the previous conversation with Boris, Li Xuan knew that a standard cavalry team was generally composed of eight cavalry units, so there were at least forty-eight Divine Domain cavalry in Carouston? Li Xuan was a little shocked by the powerful army strength of this town. Along the way, Li Xuan knocked on the side and knocked a lot of the basic common sense of this world, in this world, it is not that he is considered a cavalry on horseback, at most he can only be called a ranger, or an ordinary cavalry. And the cavalry of the Divine Domain, each of them is a sixth-order elite powerhouse with firm beliefs who are proficient in swordsmanship and horsemanship, and the horses under them are also powerful war horses that have been infused with holy power, and their strength and endurance are far from being comparable to ordinary horses. The knights of the Divine Domain must have outstanding military exploits, canonization of the royal family, and the blessing of the church before they can be crowned with the title of Knights of the Divine Domain, and every Knights of the Divine Domain is an out-and-out sixth-order legendary powerhouse.

"After Viscount Orin fell ill, Carroston's affairs were handed over to his three sons and the financial steward, but the sons of Viscount Orin were not good at handling town affairs, so many people began to move. Boris continued quietly.

"Why?" Li Xuan didn't quite understand.

"It is said that none of Viscount Orin's three sons are willing to inherit the title of viscount, but each of the three sons has some supporters of their own, and if Viscount Orin dies of illness, many people in Carroston will draw their steel swords to let their supporters inherit the title. ”

"Sure enough, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. But it's not the same as in the TV series. Li Xuan thought secretly.

"What about Vivian?" asked Li Xuan, glancing at the carriage behind the convoy.

"If all the sons give up the title, the title will be succeeded by the daughter. ”

"Why aren't Vivien's three older brothers willing to inherit the title?" Li Xuan asked his question slowly.

"Viscount Orin is both a viscount and a city lord, which means that when he inherits the title, he will also inherit the obligations of the city lord, and not many nobles are willing to face a lot of government affairs all day long. And Carroston is still a bilateral city, with the Duchy of Dunslemont to the northwest and the Duchy of Loptius of the Junen Empire to the southwest, and there are many wars every year. ”

Listening to Boris's words, Li Xuan nodded slightly. Squinted at the group of people in the tall castle in front of them.

"Mother!" Vivien saw from a distance Mrs. Mandy, dressed in green, jumping out of the carriage and running before pounced on her mother.

"My father was saved, and we met the teacher in Findrun, and the teacher will be able to cure him. As he spoke, he took Mrs. Mandy's hand and turned back.

"Hello, Viscountess, I'm Li Xuan. Li Xuan turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to Boris, and stepped forward to say.

Mandy looked at Li Xuan with a smile, the leather armor on his body was a little big, his skin was fair, and his handsome face was not covered by the shabby clothes, and he looked radiant. The gorgeous mage robe from before was put away by Li Xuan the next day and changed into the clothes of the mercenaries.

"Welcome, Mr. Li Xuan, it's been a hard journey. And Lady Kassan, you've worked hard all this time, and Stanlini will pay double the amount of gold that Vivien negotiated with you. Seeing her daughter's safe return, Mrs. Mandy's boulder finally fell, and she was generously rewarded in a good mood.

"Thank you for your generosity, Dear Viscountess. May the angels bless you. Hearing that there were extra gold coins, Kashan was also in a good mood, it was not easy to serve the Viscount's daughter along the way, and she suffered a lot. The other mercenaries were all relieved for a while, and after cheering in unison for a while, they whispered to each other.

"Ma'am, I couldn't stop Miss Vivien, please ......" The old butler, who was walking behind, came up and stopped Mandy before he could finish speaking.

"Kade, I must thank you for taking care of Vivien all the way, if you didn't take care of Vivien all the way, I really don't know what would have happened, take everyone into the castle quickly. Mrs. Mandy's tone was full of sincerity and gratitude.

The city wall, which was twice as tall as the town wall, looked extremely shocking, although it was inferior in thickness, but Li Xuan found that the entire city wall was made of stone, and the defense was even greater than that of the town wall. Moreover, there was a fluctuation of magical power on the entire city wall, and the intensity and activity of the magic element was much higher than that of other places.

The group walked into the castle, and several neatly dressed and cleanly dressed entourages in the castle trotted over and led the mercenaries leading the horses to the stables, and several handmaidens laughed and pulled away Vivian, who was still pounced on the viscountess, and teased in a whisper, and another burst of cheerful laughter spread.

Mandy's frowning brows, which had been falling on Li Xuan, slowly relaxed, and a smile appeared on her face.

"Dear Mr. Li Xuan, although this is rude, my husband's condition is getting worse, could you please go and diagnose him right now?" Mandy's eager voice carried a lot of apologies.

"It's nothing, please lead the way, let's go see the Lord first. Li Xuan didn't care, he would stay here for a long time in the Stanlini family in the future, and he would obviously be able to learn more about curing the viscount's illness.

"Mother, sister is back?" There was a sound of footsteps in the corridor, and it was Noah, the eldest son of the Viscount, and two retinues, who came up from the corridor to salute.

"This is Mr. Li Xuan, and your sister has brought in a doctor from Findrun. Mandy paused and nodded in return. Glared at Vivien, who grimaced at her brother.

"Findrun?" Noah wondered.

"Well, yes, you put down what you are doing and come with us to see your father. Mandy said and continued to lead the way.

Li Xuan quietly followed behind the maid and didn't say much, just silently observed the things in the castle, this castle was not as he imagined, not even gorgeous at all, just a very ordinary stone castle, heavy but very bright, without too many decorations, there were only some mosaic candlesticks on the walls of the corridor, and there were even many scratches and many small pits, which should be sword marks and hammer marks.

Li Xuan noticed that there were many windows in the castle, and the lighting was very good, and most of the windows were open during the day, and the sunlight easily shone in, scattered on the mottled stone walls and floors. The middle of the floor was covered with a gray carpet, and the stone slabs on both sides that were not covered by the carpet were also very clean.

The Viscount's room was a little farther away than expected, living in a tower with a round spire. When passing through an open garden corridor, Li Xuan saw the other two sons of the viscount, all dressed in fat powder, fair-skinned, wearing white aristocratic clothes, it should be the second son Luma, that is, the mercenaries called "the knight on the back" The other one looks darker, is shorter, wears small leather armor, and has a sword pinned to his waist It should be the third son Cole.

"This is Mr. Li Xuan, the doctor Vivien hired from Findrun. Mandy said and motioned for the two to salute Li Xuan. After Luma and Cole saluted Mandy first, they looked at Li Xuan curiously. Li Xuan nodded politely.

"Isn't Findren the abandoned elemental city-state, aren't there only thieves there?" Luma followed behind the others, muttering to Cole, causing Vivien to look indignant. Several people didn't dare to make a loud noise, and their footsteps followed closely.

After walking for a while, Noah opened a door, and before Li Xuan could step inside, Vivien cried and threw herself in, kneeling on the edge of the bed and hugging her father, crying profusely.

Li Xuan walked into the room and looked at the man lying on the bed, Viscount Olin was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with deep sunken eyes, gray skin, and a dull look.

"Please let everyone go out and wait outside. Li Xuan said politely to Mrs. Mandy, walked straight to the head of the bed, and touched Viscount Orin's neck, his breathing was weak, but there was still a pulse.

"All out. Mandy said firmly, glancing around the others. The group hurriedly walked out, and Luma, who was walking at the end, closed the door with a complicated expression, with a thick worry in his eyes.
