The palace was a symbol of an empire at all times, and now that the beautiful Fermont Palace was destroyed and the Emperor Auston was dead, it was a time of panic, and no matter what the reason, Lucia had to stay in Coenas to stabilize the people. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The empress will have to wait until the goddess arrives in person to officially ascend the throne, but it is urgent to gather important ministers and rectify state affairs, and a huge project to rebuild the palace will follow. Each of these things will involve a lot of energy, but Donner can't afford it.

The situation in the north is changing rapidly, and a strong enemy is eyeing him, and he must react immediately. What's more, as the most powerful Grand Duke in the empire, even out of suspicion, it is not convenient for him to meddle in these matters of Cohenas.

The girl in his arms was still snuggling up to him, sobbing quietly, and Donner could feel that this was when Lucia needed him the most.

This feeling only made Donner hesitate for a few seconds, and after a few seconds, he looked in the direction of the rising sun and said softly, "I have to go." He thought that Lucia would say something to keep it, or finally covet a moment of warmth.

But Lucia's reaction was unexpected. She looked up from Donner's arms, looked at Donner with slightly swollen eyes, and whispered, "Be careful yourself." The arm that had been holding Donner tightly just now gradually loosened.

Under the morning sun, Lucia's face was like an angel who had just cried, and her gentle and sad but with a hint of determination suddenly hit the softest place in Donner's heart. It wasn't until this moment that after he left the Magic Continent, his heart, which had been closed, opened a crack.

But he had to go.

"I'm leaving......" Donner gave Lucia a gentle kiss on the forehead and looked down at her, "I'll guard the empire in the north." ”

After saying that, he resolutely turned around and left along the ruins of the palace.

Lucia silently watched in the direction Donner had left until he disappeared from view.

......

No one on the outskirts of Coenas, Donner ended Veronica's life, and for this woman he had only regret and no sympathy.

Then, he galloped in the direction of Fog City.

Late that night, in a remote village in the province of Santan, Donner left Rovinica's child at the door of a farmhouse and untied the silk swaddling clothes that wrapped the child and took it away, leaving only the naked child.

The child cried for a while, and then the wooden door of the farmhouse quietly opened, and the peasant woman saw the child on the ground, and hurriedly picked it up, turned back and shouted into the house, and another farmer came out, and the two of them looked around with the child in their arms.

Donner saw this scene and left quietly.

......

On the morning of November 1, Donner returned to Misty Town ahead of Wesley.

He went directly to the Stone Villa and activated the sound transmission circle that connected Natia to the middle of the Fog City.

"Donald ......" A familiar voice came from the other end of the sound transmission circle.

"Nati ......" Donner was in a trance for a moment, only to realize that this voice was not Natia's, and wondered: "Cynthia, didn't you leave?" He clearly remembered that he had just sent Cynthia away half a month ago.

"I'm back again, just arrived last night. Cynthia said, "Things have changed again. ”

"I have something to tell you here, so let's talk about it in person. Will you come up, or will I come down?" asked Donner.

"See you at the old place. Cynthia replied crisply.

Half an hour later, Donner waited for Cynthia in the fields outside Misttown, and unlike the previous ones, this time she was accompanied by the dwarven king Grunada.

"Giant Jesse has already made a move. "Donner gets straight to the point.

Cynthia didn't know about Donner's experience in Coennas and was a little surprised that he was so well-informed. Wondering, "How do you know?"

"They planned a coup d'état in Coenas, which happened to be met by me. Donner wasn't going to go around with Cynthia again, and said bluntly: "I killed all the people who came this time, but I don't know if they still have anyone in Hurs." If there is, we need to get rid of them as soon as possible, so as not to cause more impact. ”

Cynthia seemed to be taken aback by Donner's decisiveness, and glanced at the dwarven king Grunada before saying to Donner, "You want to declare war on them?"

"No, I'm in self-defense. Donner said: "Middle-earth is so big, I don't care where Jesse goes to toss, but Huls can't!"

"Good!" Grunada roared suddenly, causing the farmers who were harvesting their crops in the distance to look at them.

Fortunately, the farmers near Misty Town have been accustomed to seeing dwarves and gnomes for the past two years, and they have made no fuss.

"It seems that the time has come for a showdown with them. Cynthia laughed.

The Dwarven King Grunada snorted lightly, obviously dissatisfied with Cynthia's long-standing strategy of trying to unite in the Knight Federation.

It seems that his son Gernada is right, and there is not only one voice in the Far North.

Sure enough, what happened next proved this even more.

I saw Cynthia smile embarrassed and said, "Between negotiation and war, the cost of the latter is much greater. ”

"But these bastards have survived on us for thousands of years, and they already feel that this is a matter of course, as if we should keep them!

Donner finally saw that in the Far North Country, the dwarves were the main battle faction, and the dwarves were the main peace faction. There may also be games and compromises between the two, who knows.

"Perhaps...... This time you're right. Cynthia looked a little lonely.

"Of course I'm right! Dwarves would rather die on the battlefield than in a mine!" the Dwarven King spoke as if he were arguing with someone at all times.

Cynthia knew that his temper was coming up, and she didn't know what to say, so she simply shut up and didn't quarrel with him.

Donner didn't expect the Dwarf King to be so direct. This guy should have lived for thousands of years, why is he still a rectum?

Donner was suddenly touched by this thought, and then, as if improvised by the moment, casually asked, "By the way, Lord Grunada, do you know anyone other than me who has practiced the Azure Dou Qi?"

Grunada's reaction to the question was strange, but it was exactly what Donner had expected—he looked at Cynthia with a pleading look as if he had been asked a difficult question that he couldn't answer.

Sure enough, there is a ghost? Donner's brows furrowed slightly, and his heartbeat suddenly increased.

Grunada apparently sensed the change in him—the Dwarven King, though he had a rough personality, was a Saint-level combat force after all—whispered to Cynthia, "I think it's okay to say it." ”

Donner wondered even more, wasn't this a conspiracy? Otherwise, how could the Dwarf King say that?

The expression on Cynthia's face was also a little strange, she seemed to be very embarrassed, even a little embarrassed.

"Donner......" she finally said, "I know it sounds incredible, and you might think we're playing tricks." ”

"What the hell is going on?" Donner guessed that Cynthia would say something about the oracle, which was a bit of an unbelievable thing.

Sure enough, Cynthia coughed dryly and said slowly: "Nineteen years ago, the oldest elders of the Far North Country heard strange noises on the same night. The voice said that the saviors of the dwarves and gnomes had been born in Middle-earth...... That man will be born proficient in mechanics, and our mission is to persuade him not to go to the Magic Continent. ”

When she said this, she looked at Donner and said, "Now do you know why we advised you not to go to the Magic Continent?"

Donner nodded and said softly, "It's incredible...... indeed"

"No...... It's unbelievable, it's not this ......," Cynthia shook her head.

Donner suddenly felt a wave of horror, could it be that Jingwei had told them something else?
