Old Horn returned to Viscount Lane's castle in the north outside the Iron City, and walked all the way directly into the castle and into Viscount Lane's study, which was located in the depths of the castle.

This generation of Viscount Lane should be regarded as the third generation of Viscount of the Lane family.

Although the Viscount appears to be in the prime of life, the Viscount is actually much older than Raul.

From the Viscount's slightly blonde silver hair, the music could see the Viscount's ears, with elf-like sharp horns.

People who don't know the details of Viscount Ryan may think that Viscount Ryan is a half-elf who is a hybrid of personal and elves.

But in reality, this is not the case, Viscount Lane's mother is a witch, and can be considered a leader among witches.

At the beginning of the witch's appearance in the Western Continent, the witches were divided into two factions, one faction felt that they should join forces with the imperial royal family on the Western Continent, and then promote the magical civilization through the approval of the empire and the royal family.

On the other hand, Viscount Lane's mother is the leader, who believes that magic should be spread among the people first.

The witches of this faction feel that magic is a tool worth promoting to the people, so that they can use magic to improve their lives and production.

Therefore, the witches of Viscount Lane's faction, their magic is more reflected in the application of practical life and production.

Under the influence of the nobility and the royal family, they felt that magic should be a more noble thing and should not be obtained by ordinary people, so they joined forces with the imperial family, and even took the initiative to join forces with the Holy See to fight the witches who promoted magic among the people.

It was a catastrophic time for the Wild Witches, who were captured and burned at the stake.

But even in that case, there were witches who survived in the end and continued to spread the magic.

Now Viscount Lane's father, who was just an insignificant little lord at the beginning, accidentally rescued a witch who was being hunted.

Later, he agreed with the idea of the utilitarian witch, so he supported the promotion of magic by the utilitarian witch.

It's a pity that Viscount Ryan is just a viscount after all, in the era when the Sun Empire's iron hooves swept the Western Continent, in order to protect his territory and to be able to protect the utilitarian witches in the territory, he finally chose to surrender to the Sun Empire.

It was also because of the voluntary surrender of the previous generation of viscounts that he was rewarded by the Sun Empire and was able to keep part of the inheritance of the viscountdom.

Now this generation of Viscount Lane, inheriting the inheritance of his ancestors, coupled with the bloodline of half of the witch, it is natural that he will show unparalleled strength as soon as he is born.

entered the military headquarters of the Sun Empire, and quickly relied on his extraordinary ability to emerge among the entire Sun Empire military.

After that, relying on his powerful magical abilities, coupled with his own knightly heritage from the Ryan family, he was simply invincible on the battlefield.

In that era, the young Viscount Lane was the representative of the Empire's strongest military power, helping the Sun Empire successfully complete the nominal unification of the Western Continent.

However, the high-spirited Viscount Lane, like the inflatable Sun Empire, tasted defeat in the far east.

Looking back to this day, Viscount Lane will never forget that war outside the Dragon Kingdom, where there was a huge disparity in strength.

Under the iron teeth and bronze teeth of the powerful machinery of the Dragon Kingdom, the magic legion, known as the strongest in the Sun Empire, was powerless to fight back, and finally the entire army became a prisoner of the other party.

Fortunately, the old viscount has accumulated a lot of wealth over the years, and took out half of the wealth of Viscount Ryan at that time, so that he could be regarded as redeeming his son.

After being ransomed, Viscount Lane sank for a while, immersed in the shadow of the defeat in the war, and it was almost impossible to face the disparity of defeat without leaving home.

Until the Sun Empire suffered a counterattack from the Eastern Dragon Kingdom, and at the same time, some careerists within the empire also took the opportunity to become active.

Seeing that the empire was about to be destroyed, Viscount Lane reinvigorated, regrouped and led his legion all the way to the top, not only successfully reversed the defeat of the empire, forced the dragon kingdom that invaded the western continent to retreat, but also successfully quelled the internal turmoil in the empire, and finally even almost directly entered the throne of Sun City.

It's just that in the Western Continent, the influence of the Sun God Cult is more deep-rooted, and all monarchs and titles must be recognized by the Sun God Sect before they can truly obtain the corresponding status.

So in the end, under the mediation of the Sun God Cult, after the Imperial Family and the Twelve Golden Nobles paid the corresponding price, Viscount Ryan could only withdraw his troops, and he had to continue to recognize the dominance of the Sun Empire.

Of course, Viscount Ryan also regained corresponding benefits from his retreat, and his territory was greatly expanded.

Even now, the Lane family continues to inherit the title of viscount, but the territory of the Lane family can be said to be comparable to that of a duke.

The most critical point is that in the Viscounty of Lane, Viscount Lane has absolute autonomy, and the imperial family cannot interfere in the internal affairs of the Viscountdom.

Although there has been the existence of the Steel City in recent years, it seems that Viscount Ryan has made another concession to the empire and the Holy See, but in fact, Viscount Ryan is also trying to preserve part of his strength.

In fact, the entire Viscount of Lane is still in the hands of Viscount Lane, and Viscount Lane's strength will never be weaker than that of the Empire and the Holy See.

Old Horn begged to be seen outside the door of the study, and waited a long time before being allowed to enter the study by Viscount Lane.

In the bright light, Viscount Lane sat at the wooden desk, immersed in the many pieces of information on the bookcase.

Old Horn cautiously whispered, "Viscount, things have changed, a young man from the Dragon Kingdom has appeared, disrupting the original plan. ”

Viscount Ryan didn't look up, and while looking through the information in his hand, he said in a deep voice: "I know, the kid who was left in the factory by Raul is right? What's wrong with him? Are you going to form your own force?"

Old Horn was taken aback when he heard this, and then hurriedly responded: "Viscount, it turns out that you already know everything?"

Viscount Ryan finally raised his head, sighed and said: "Everything was expected, a kid from the Dragon Kingdom, even if he is still a teenager, since he chose to leave his homeland, he must have come with an ambition, but I didn't expect that he would be able to live in peace in my place for five years, he is really a very patient little guy." ”

Old Horn was surprised at this time: "But that young man looks like he is only seventeen or eighteen years old at most, has he been here for five years?"

Seeing the old butler's incredulous face, Viscount Lane said calmly: "Don't think it's strange, the people of the Dragon Kingdom have a very unique inheritance method, they have to start receiving inheritance and teaching at the age of four or five, and they already have the ability to stand alone when they are ten years old, and the best of the seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys have already been able to start the production of some factories." ”

Old Horn was still surprised, thinking that Murray had been in Viscount Lane for five years, indicating that he had crossed from the East in his teens, it was really unimaginable, how could such a teenage child come to the West?
