The ground was sprinkled with the plasma and marrow of the gnoll, but its corpse was gone. Victor stepped forward, scrutinized the clues left at the scene, and found a line of footprints left by leather armor boots. Unlike the heavy marks of men's boots, they have a slim shape with a broken line between the ball and heel, and are clearly the latest half-heeled women's boots. Following his footsteps, he saw a red bronze badge inlaid on the trunk of a dwarf tree, with the pattern of an eagle with wings spreading.

NeoWest?

The Rand Empire is also known as the Eagle Empire, and Neowest uses the Eagle as the family crest. Victor took off the bronze badge, put it in the palm of his hand, followed the footprints, looked at the west side of the low woods, and a scene came to mind:

About 20 minutes ago, a female knight came to the corpse of Windfang, picked up the corpse of the jackal, wrapped its head in cloth to prevent blood from dripping to the ground, and then carried the corpse of Windfang in one hand, walked to the low tree, inlaid the family crest of Neowest on the trunk, and then walked out of the grove on the west side.

What she meant was that Victor only had to take the badge to the chapel of Count de Kaiser's collar and meet with Emperor Neowest to retrieve the body of the Wind Fang.

Victor's face was gloomy and his heart was full of anger, he hated being coerced, and he hated being watched in the wild. Now it's not a question of how much Wind Fang is worth, but why the other party can find him accurately? Not long after Victor killed Wind Fang, the female knight immediately stole Wind Fang's body, indicating that she had been witnessing the whole process of the battle in the vicinity, and if she wanted to do something at that time, the consequences would be unpredictable.

After thinking about it, Victor seemed to understand the other party's methods. The Sword Mantis Knights could determine the general location of the Wind Fangs, and they sent a scout team of Silver Knights to stay away from Victor and the Wind Fangs. The other day, Victor noticed a fever in Father Miller's amulet, and then the Sword Mantis Knights were lost for a while, and it was only recently that they reappeared on the outskirts of the battlefield. The female knight only had to follow the Sword Mantis Knight's scout squad to determine where Victor was. Both the Bloodthirsty of the Wind Tooth and the Blue Blade of Victor disturb the Void Elemental, and cannot conceal the elemental perception of the High Knights. But to clearly perceive the elemental changes, it is necessary for the Golden Knight, and only the Golden Knight can avoid the eyes and ears of the Sword Mantis Knight Scout.

There are very few golden female knights in the human realm, and the Neowest family only has two silver female knights, both of whom are the daughters of Nachtigar, and they will never reconcile the Rand Empire with Cambys.

Victor thought about it, thinking that the Golden Female Knight could only be a core member of the six Paladin families, and that only the Radiant Knight wanted to strip Neowest of his close ties with Nakhtigar.

Kite Castle agreed to allow the Rand Empire to lead the Rand Empire to the south of the river, so that the Rand royal family could make up its mind to break with Nakhtigarh. If the talks fall apart, Neowest will have to hug the thighs of the Bright Guard. Until the two sides reach a consensus, private meetings must be held with care and must not be perceived by Nakhtigarh.

This must be a prerequisite for Neowest's cooperation with the Knights of Radiance, so the Council of Cardinals and the Knights of Radiance did everything possible to hide and not show any of their feet.

However, the female paladin stole Victor's wealth of hundreds of thousands of gold soles and coerced him to meet with Neowest, which was too serious to take His Highness Randall.

It's just too deceitful!

I finally beat a monster, but my body was touched...... Victor's heart felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.

His Royal Highness Randall, who was holding back the fire in his belly, chased after him directly, and before he went far, the footprints of men's combat boots appeared on the ground, and he walked side by side with the female knight, close to each other, indicating that they were of equal status and had a close relationship.

The Golden Female Knights of the Paladin Family all have a Golden Paladin Companion. Victor didn't know enough about the Golden Paladins, only that they claimed to have the strength of the Legendary Rank, and he thought that he would be more than enough to deal with one, and if he faced two at the same time, he would have to be cautious.

In order to be on the safe side, Victor relied on his familiarity with the terrain and deliberately went around in a circle, went around a ridge, found a hidden position, and quietly waited for the target to appear.

It didn't take long for a man and a woman to come into Victor's sight. The female knight had brown hair and blue eyes, a beautiful face, a slender figure, a long sword hanging from her waist, and wore a delicate women's dragon lizard skin armor with no marks to identify the family. The male knight is broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted, 1.95 meters tall, and wears an ordinary rhino leather armor, unarmed, and a corpse with wind fangs on his shoulders. He looked to be 20 years old, with handsome features, amber eyes, and dark red hair like blood, which was a sign of the Neowest barbarian bloodline.

To Victor's surprise, Neowest and Gombis are currently in a hostile relationship, and his tracking of the lord of Gombis in the field can be seen as ill-intentioned. This is by no means a negotiating attitude.

How could Emperor Rand be so reckless? Who was the female knight beside him?

Victor pondered for a moment, then began to carefully identify Neowest's characteristics, calling on the wind elemental to lock on to his message, listing it as a target for his old enemy, and then disappearing to sense Neowest's movements.

With his current mental strength, the old enemy can only lock on to one target at a time, and the image of the wind elemental transmitting back to Neowest is very clear, but the female knight next to him is blurry. However, in a circular area with a diameter of 2.6 meters, air oscillations**-3 are converted into acoustic signals, allowing Victor to "hear" their conversation.

"Vera, I always think it's not good to take away His Highness Randall's prey......"

"Hmph, what's wrong? If I don't do that, he won't meet you at all...... As the daughter of Relgarel, I'm not stealing other people's prey for you?"

"I ...... Actually, I think it's pretty good now. ”

"That's good? Nakhtigar wants you to go to the Eastern League, you think it's good? Uncle Adrian thinks the same way?"

"I didn't mean that, I mean the Rant Empire is pretty good......"

"Don't say it, just be obedient...... Our children will inherit the fertile territory in the future, and not be sent to the Eastern Alliance!"

"Okay...... Vera, I think we should give the body of Windfang to the Sword Mantis Knight and tell them it's Randall's capture......"

"You...... Are you scared?"

"His Highness Randall is a legend, and his methods are unpredictable and unpredictable, and he may have caught up...... But I'm not afraid of him. Neowest pursed his lips and continued, "I'm afraid he'll use you to coerce me...... In short, you have to stay close to me, and I can protect you. ”

"Hehe, what a good brother, call my sister to listen to me. ”

"......Vera, I'm ten years older than you. ”

"I don't care...... There are no outsiders here, call Sister Sheng, I have a reward. ”

"No, I don't call. ”

"Scream!"

"Sister. ”

The two of them talked and laughed all the way, mainly the female knight flirting with her lover, and Neowest was struggling and struggling to cope. Victor also heard some secrets, for example, Neowest's lover is the descendant daughter of the paladin family Relgarel, the identity of the silver knight, but not the paladin, she is already three months pregnant, Neowest is content with the status quo, but his lover and subordinates hope to open up the southern continent, the golden knight Adrian has a great influence on the Rand Emperor, and he is the main promoter of Neowest and the Guanhui Knights.

To Victor's surprise, the legendary knight Neowest was submissive to his lover, not at all like a decisive Rand Emperor.

But who says that the Golden Knight must be tough and domineering?

The Golden Knight is the same from the outside, and it is born from the heart. Neowest looks 20 years old and looks young and immature, so he is this character, but it doesn't mean that his beliefs are not strong enough. It's just that his belief is not necessarily to revive the Rand Empire.

As far as Victor knows, this generation of Emperor Rand is a product of the neowest family's endogamy, because he awakened the barbarian blood, he was put on the throne by Duke Adrian.

Endogamy violated the heraldic principle of three generations of blood relatives and was a taboo for the knightly aristocracy, and only those families who aspired to cultivate pure-blooded offspring would secretly practice endogamy. The objects of endogamy are marginal bloodlines who are not valued by the family, who do not hold power, live in seclusion, and whose main task is to restore the pure blood of their ancestors.

Neowest grew up in such an environment, and his personality was purely inevitable. It is precisely because of his purity that he can set foot in the realm of legends. As for the task of reviving the Rand Empire, I am afraid that Adrian also imposed it on him.

When Victor saw Neowest's appearance, he thought that his belief was to restore the glory of his ancestors in the first place.

Reviving the Rand Empire and reviving the Neowest family are not the same concept, and there's a lot to be done here.

After much thought, Victor decided to meet with Neowest, turned away from the ridge, and ran towards a valley in front of him.

Neowest and Vera walked into the valley and suddenly pulled their lover behind them.

"Be careful. ”

A pure gold feather arrow wrapped in blue and black air rushed over, Neowest raised his head, the feather arrow flew into his ten meter range, the air flow quickly dissipated, the arrow changed from fast to slow, and finally hung in the air, and was gently picked up by Neowest.

The Elemental Realm of the Legendary Knight.

Vera Relgarel followed Neowest's line of sight, and saw a young man with a war bow standing on the boulder on the left, he was slender and straight, wearing a torn dragon lizard skin armor, with delicate facial features, slightly pointed ears, black hair and black eyes, and a dark golden halo outside his dark and deep eyes.

"His Highness Randall!"

Victor ignored the high-ranking female knight, stared at the gnoll corpse on Neowest's shoulder, and said word by word: "That's my prey!"

Neowest hurriedly dropped the body of the Wind Fang, lowered his head, rubbed his hands crampedly, and said ashamedly, "I'm sorry, we shouldn't have taken your loot." ”

Is there such a well-behaved emperor...... Victor resisted the urge to cover his face, and said, "You can go." ”

"Thank you. Neowest pulled his lover forward, but she grabbed him.

"Wait!"

Vera rolled her eyes at Neowest, turned to Victor with beautiful eyes, and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness Randall seems to know the identity of my love, let me introduce myself, I am the second daughter of His Royal Highness Morrit Relgarel, the Earl of the El Kingdom, the silver knight Vera Relgarel...... Your Highness, please allow me to explain, we just want to help you get the gnoll body back to the church in the county of Decaiser......"

"It's worth 300,000 gold soles...... I can move it. ”

Victor stood on the ground with one hand of the eagle wings, raised his slender eyebrows, which were as straight as a sword, and said unceremoniously: "Lady Relgarel, you are following me in the wilderness, do you want me to say thank you?"

Vera rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "Your Highness emphasizes that the wild is a lawless land, so is it wrong for us to take the corpse of the gnolls?"

Since the wilderness is a lawless land, anything can happen, anything can be discussed, and the reason for dialogue is only the strength of each other, and Neowest and Victor have this strength. If Neowest was afraid and wouldn't have taken the body of the Wind Fang, Victor wouldn't have shown up if he was afraid, and if he did run to the church and retrieve his loot, his momentum would have fallen into disadvantage.

What a great character, no wonder he can hold Neowest in his hands...... Victor smiled faintly and said, "Don't waste time, what exactly do you want to say?"

"I think it's up to His Highness to ask the question. The knight pursed her lips and smiled.

Knowing that this was Vera's negotiation skill, Victor was still satisfied and asked, "Why did you find me?"

"The Senate of Cambes, His Highness is the only lord who supports the establishment of a port at the mouth of Lake Fez, and we believe that with His Highness's wisdom we can see further. Vera paused, and continued, "Do you remember the Kent priest in Raven Town, when you went to visit the Barbarian Elders, Lord Kent was sure that you could be promoted to legend, and he passed the news on to my father. So, we think you not only have the vision, but you also have enough influence. ”

She added, "This matter is led by us Relgarel and approved by the six Paladin families. You don't have to worry about getting involved in the battle for the ranking of the Radiant Knights. ”

Victor nodded and said, "So, Relgarel is ready to develop secular power in the Southern Continent?"

"Yes. The Southern Continent is vast and boundless, and it is all borderland. Gambis is strong, but he can't eat all the land. Once we have intervened, we can negotiate a cooperation plan to ensure that Cambis can get benefits commensurate with its strength. Her Highness Sylvia will play the most important role in the distribution of benefits, which is also in line with the wishes of the Randall family, isn't it?"

"At the very least, our involvement in the southern expansion strategy can keep the Borui Kingdom from holding back Gangbis...... It's better than Nakhtigar getting involved. ”

Victor smiled noncommittally and asked, "Where is the sincerity?"

Vera gently stroked her lower abdomen with a happy smile on her face, "I'm pregnant......"

Neowest puffed up his chest, stepped forward to put his arms around Vera's slim waist, which was not bloated, and said loudly, "My child." ”

This dog food is sprinkled...... I don't have an heir yet...... Victor clenched his fist to his mouth, coughed dryly, and said, "Congratulations...... That's why I'm here to see you. ”

The fact that Neowest and the high-ranking female knights of the Paladin family are involved and have children again reveals many signals. In general: Neowest and the Paladins have abandoned more than 700 years of hostility and built trust with each other, and with the support of the Knights of Radiance, it is tantamount to betraying Nakhtigar. It is highly likely that Nakhtigarh was behind the murder of Ryan August.

But that doesn't mean that August is willing to let go of his hatred for Neowest.

"You killed my king. Victor looked coldly at Emperor Rand.

"I ...... Nope!"

Neowest shook his head in defense, "Some people want me to kill Ryan in a knight duel, but I don't want to do that...... I let Ryan attack me three times, and if he can make me take half a step back, I will withdraw from the Eastern Province and pardon the two counts for their treason. If Lane can't do it, leave the rebellion to me, cede the territory, and bow to me...... Ryan didn't keep his word, and his three attacks failed to shake me, so he used immature and extraordinary combat skills, and as a result, he was infected by the elemental sea. ”

"I was injured, but it wasn't serious, I had a chance to deal with Roland, but I didn't make a move. ”

Vera explained, "At that time, Her Highness Sylvia was on the walls of Fangs City and witnessed the duel of knights, and if Neowest fought back against Ryan, she would never let Neowest go. ”

Victor was also speechless, Neowest only defended and did not attack, did not retreat half a step, and Ryan's face rested there? It is rare to have a legendary knight as a sparring partner, and the bold Ryan August certainly wanted to take this opportunity to get a glimpse of the mysteries of the legendary realm, and ended up killing himself.

It can only be said that Neowest's personality makes people can't help but want to bully honest people, but they ignore that he is a highness with legendary strength.

"What's the point of saying this now? Roland won't let your ...... go"

"I'm always waiting for her challenge. Neoweisset nodded and said angrily, "Please tell His Highness Randall to tell His Highness Roland...... In a life-and-death duel, I won't keep my hands. Especially August...... Don't talk about the rules of knight duels. ”

Victor twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "We in Gambis have plans to create an empire. You announced the dissolution of the Rand Empire and inherited the status of the lord of the principality, so that I can stand to propose to the Kite Castle that I cooperate with Neowest to develop the Southern Continent. But I do not promise that my advice will be adopted by the Senate...... I can be sure of one thing, the conditions for the construction of the port of Souss are excellent, and one day there will be a lakeside port. ”

"Dissolve the Rand Empire?!"

Vera was stunned at first, then thoughtful. Neowest glanced at her and said hesitantly, "In this matter, I will go back and ask for the advice of the family vassals. ”

"So be it. ”

Victor nodded, picked up the Eagle Wing Bow, and said, "Leave the Wind Fangs behind, and we'll say goodbye." ”

Seeing Neowest escorting Vera towards the other end of the valley, Victor couldn't help but say, "May I ask, why is Your Majesty unwilling to follow Nakhtigar's advice and kill King Ryan in a duel?"

Neowest stopped, looked up and said, "I think the Rand Empire is pretty good...... There is no need to cause disputes. ”

“...... But he told you that if you don't do anything, the last of the empire's lands will be swallowed up by Gambis?"

Neowest nodded in surprise, didn't speak, and continued walking forward.

Waiting out of the valley, Vera sighed, "Disbanding the Rand Empire is actually a very good suggestion...... However, if this matter is too wide-ranging, you will be very embarrassed and even infamy. Moreover, by dissolving the Rand Empire, you lose your status as monarch of the Four Kingdoms, and August can justifiably wage a war of revenge against you, and Nakhtigar will not intervene again. His Highness Randall is a Kite Castle squire and has a close relationship with Roland, so it is possible that he will join the crusade against you...... In other words, we can't be sure if this is a deliberate trap set by His Highness Randall...... It depends on how much support the Knights of Radiance can give you...... I'll go back and ask my father. ”

Neowest thought for a moment and said, "The Knights of Radiance just guarantee that Sylvia won't make a move!"

"What do you mean?"

"His Highness Randall is a legend, but he can't beat me. Neowest said confidently.

As soon as he finished speaking, a wisp of breeze suddenly turned into a blue-black airflow, which immediately turned into an indigo void wind element, and struck at Neowest's hair. He jerked his hand up and crushed the sharp blue streamer in his palm.

With a "bang", the air exploded, the air flow was agitated, and Neowest's rhino skin armor was torn apart by the Void Wind Elemental, but his palm was unharmed.

Vera looked around, turned her head, and asked in disbelief, "This is the extraordinary combat skill of His Highness Randall to kill Wind Fang in the air?"

"He can't beat me...... I can't beat him. Neowest looked at the tattered handarmor and said honestly, and then his face changed dramatically.

"Oh no......"

"What's wrong? what's wrong?" Vera hid in Neowest's arms, looking to the left and right with a wary expression, for fear that Victor would give her a visit too.

"I called you sister, and he probably heard you......" Neowest said with some embarrassment.

"......Poof, Adam, why are you so cute?"

Four kilometers away, Victor cut off the head, tendons, and heart of the ferocious gnoll. He couldn't help but weigh the effect of his rival against the legendary Earth Knight.

"It seems...... No one can help the other, but I have just stepped into Chuangqi, and there is still huge room for improvement!"
