The Golden-Eyed Count aggressively questioned the deputy head of the Radiant Knights, baffling the high-ranking knights and priests. Clark was displeased, but he had seen Victor's extraordinary tracking ability, and he could guess why the other party was annoyed.

Gold-tier centaurs can borrow strength from the Earth to regain their physical strength, and their stamina is similar to that of the Gold-tier Earth Knights, but the four-legged maneuvers are indeed faster than the Golden Knights. Not to mention the speed and endurance of the legendary centaur, but after all, it belongs to the orcs with the affinity of the earth element, and the Raging Wave Knight has a long fighting spirit, and the speed is second only to the Tempest Knight, even the high-level female knight at the peak of the Silver Rank can keep up with the centaur commander. Princess Roland August chased the centaur Great Khan to the west of the savannah, leaving the other six Golden Knights behind.

The Earth Knights are slower, they can't keep up with Roland and the Legendary Centaurs, can't the Tempest Paladins keep up with them?

Victor has seen firsthand how Strange Testier flies a manticore's kite.

Those who should have chased did not chase, and those who could not catch up would not chase, which means that Roland was isolated and helpless, facing the centaur Great Khan alone. Victor, of course, was furious and asked Clark unceremoniously, why didn't he go and support the eldest princess of Gambis?

The attitude of the Earl of Golden-Eye must have been unreasonable and arrogant, and Clark was not His Royal Highness of the Kingdom of Cambys, and he neither ordered Roland to hunt down the Centaur Great Khan, nor could he order Roland to abandon his goal.

Still young, Roland is in danger, and he is in a hurry immediately...... Clark chuckled inwardly, and he also thought that Victor and Roland were a potential couple. Because of his age and personality, Roland still has a longing for mortal love, and he is unwilling to share his lover with others, so the two of them have not been able to get together, but they have maintained a relationship that is close to separation.

In any case, Victor deduces Roland's situation just by seeing the Tempest Paladin, proving once again his extraordinary intelligence and tracing instincts.

Respect for transcendent power is respect for oneself, and Clark's age is enough to be Victor's grandfather, so he can understand the other party's mood and tolerate his rude gaffe.

"Cousin Victor, I arrived at the Wharton Prairie only half a day ahead of you. Clark smiled gracefully and said, "By the time I caught up with the Knights of the Iron Wall, the centaurs had already dispersed. ”

"Scattered?"

Victor was surprised to hear the news. Centaurs are oddly shaped and are not suitable for solo fighting, and are extremely dependent on the strength of the group. Also at the Gold Rank, the individual combat power of the Centaur Commander is far from that of the Ogre Overseer, and even the high-level Silver Knight has a chance to kill it. It turns out that in a one-on-one situation, the centaur commander poses little threat to the high-ranking knights.

Of course, it's another thing for a high-ranking knight not to catch up with a centaur.

The bands of the Centaur Great Khan scattered across the Wharton Prairie, which was bad news. This means that the abilities of the legendary centaur are completely liberated and they are no longer bound by the group.

Sometimes, lone wolves are more terrifying than wolves.

However, these more than 300 centaur elites were the most important team of the Great Khan, and by bringing them back to the eastern part of the Sidon Khanate, the Centaur Great Khan could effectively lead the tribes.

Needless to say, Legendary Centaurs have this ability.

Companions who fought side by side, said don't want it, Victor couldn't understand the behavior of the centaur Great Khan.

Clark smiled, "Let the ladies of Cambis explain, they know better than I know what's going on here." ”

Margaret Wellington has the highest status, but she has a cold temperament and rarely speaks. The high knight of the Joshua family was about to explain to Victor when Countess Andrea Wimbledon preemptively said:

"Victor, that night, the three knights followed the centaurs into the Wharton prairie, and the centaur Great Khan blocked us twice, but they were blocked by several golden knights, and no one could help anyone. In the end, the centaur instigated the bison herd to run wild, and with the help of the herd's cover, temporarily escaped the tracking of the Knights. The Centaur Great Khan took two golden-rank centaur commanders to take charge of the break, and when the centaur gang disappeared into the grassland, they ran towards the west of the grassland. ”

"King Friedrich asked the Knights of the Gripen to hunt down the hidden centaurs first, and then go to the Centaur Great Khan. But His Highness Roland August persisted in the pursuit of the legendary centaur. The two sides disagreed, and the Knights of the Gripen could only split up a team, led by two Highnesses, to support His Highness Auguste. ”

Andrea bit her lip lightly and said apologetically, "But...... In the end, we lost His Highness Roland, so we had to wait for you back to Holy Helmet City with the Swift Dragon Knights. ”

Margaret remained cold, and the other two high-ranking female knights of Cambis squinted at Andrea. Roland ran away, everyone couldn't persuade him, he couldn't catch up and he couldn't stop it, and it had nothing to do with the Knights of Gripen. The Countess of Wimbledon of the Iron Mountain Empire has always been known for her beauty and arrogance, but her charming look and gentle tone towards His Royal Highness Randall make people uncomfortable no matter how they look at it.

They all have a kind of resentment that Andrea is seducing my highness.

Andrea and her husband are officially separated, and Clark has heard about it. The rumors that the Countess of Wimbledon controlled her husband were once the laughing stock of the Sassanian aristocratic circles, and the two Royal Highnesses of Barcelius came forward one after another to persuade the Countess to let go, but she never relented. Now it seems that Andrea wants to pursue His Highness Randall, and maybe there has been some progress.

As soon as Victor entered, he blamed the Tempest Paladins for not aiding His Highness Cambys, and Clark was reluctant to argue with the young Earl in public, especially since he was surrounded by high-ranking female knights of Cambys, with the only exception being the Sun Elves' admirers. They will only favor Victor, and there is no reason to say it.

Clark thought of a way to avoid embarrassment for both himself and Victor, and he said with relief: "The strength of the legendary centaur lies in its defensive talent and terrifying strength, and with every effective attack it can use the earth to increase its strength several times, and hitting the opponent will bring this power into the ground, so that the target cannot be resolved and can only resist hard." But if it's about martial arts...... Centaurs look weird, how can they have any martial arts to speak of?"

"In hand-to-hand combat, it can't even beat the Silver Knight. His Royal Highness August's martial arts skills are still above mine, and since she dares to chase the legendary centaur alone, she must be completely sure. ”

Victor said coldly, "This centaur caused the fall of the two Golden Knights. ”

Clark nodded: "You're right, but it was the high-ranking battle priest who made the mistake, not Grand Duke Frederick, and Emperor Frederick was also besieged and killed by a group of centaurs, and even so, he killed the Khan of the Black Horn tribe in front of the Great Centaur Khan." ”

"The will of the Golden Knight connects the elemental sea. It is not easy for Turnans to shake the heart of the Golden Knight, let alone a centaur who has just mastered the Soul Touch? In addition, let me tell you the good news, the Centaur Great Khan is no longer throwing spears. ”

Clark patted Victor on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Cousin Victor, do you have any other questions that you can ask Andrea to answer." My mission is to hunt down the escaped centaur bandits as much as possible before anything happens to them. Wait until the Knights of the Iron Wall and I have resolved the Centaur threat to the savannah before we can come to the aid of Princess Roland August. However, I think that by that time, you have already brought back the legendary centaur leash. ”

"I'll take my leave. ”

Clark saluted and walked to the gates of the Holy Helm with the Mithril Bow on his back.

Seeing the Tempest Paladin leave, Victor turned his inquiring gaze to the beautiful Countess of Wimbledon.

The corners of Andrea's mouth rose slightly, and she said with her chin: "Your Highness, please come with me, I have something to tell you, but it is inconvenient for everyone to know." ”

It must have been Andrea's beast-whispering wizard who intercepted the centaur's information...... Victor knew this, and turned his head and ordered, "You don't have to come with me. ”

"As you wish, Venerable Highness Randall. The high-ranking female knight of Gombis curtsied and said in unison.

Andrea took half a step behind Victor's shoulder, raising a thin, long eyebrow at the three high-ranking female knights before turning to follow and holding his arm.

The Countess of Wimbledon blatantly defiantly fought back, and Joshua and the Knights of the Nimes were so angry that it was useless to stare at them, and could only watch Victor and her walk into a wooden villa.

Entering the deepest room of the villa, Andrea closed the door with her hand, her slender arms wrapped around Victor's neck, her delicate and pretty face was raised, her eyes were half-closed, her long and dense eyelashes trembled slightly, and her crystal red lips were delicate, charming and self-generated, and she was incomparably beautiful.

Like the first time, it's not a difficult thing to do. It's just that Andrea's passion is more fiery than that of the shepherdesss in the courtship season, and the two hug and kiss each other, and finally she sits very intimately on Victor's lap.

"You must not be thinking about me these days. ”

Andrea's face turned red and she said in a nickname, "But I miss Your Highness...... I decided, I want to be your lover in the Sassan Empire. ”

Victor smiled bitterly: "Andrea, there will be no result between us, and I may not set foot in the north again in the future......"

"I know...... But I don't look down on anyone else, and my feelings need a sustenance to be able to calmly accept that my husband is with other female knights. ”

Andrea said with some self-deprecation, "My dear..... please allow me to call you that." Not all Highnesses have the guts to kiss an intimate knight with a grumpy tempest...... That's enough. ”

Victor put his arm around Andrea's waist and asked, half-teasingly, half-seriously, "Where does your bravery come from? I'm stronger, smarter, and more dangerous than you, aren't I?"

Andrea twisted her waist to facilitate or prompt Victor to unbutton the back of her leather armor, squinting her eyes and enjoying her lover's caresses, her voice coquettish but calm:

"Emperor Frederick and the Grand Duke have fallen, Her Royal Highness Orokthea has been promoted to a legend, and the revival of the Iron Mountain Empire is in sight, but there are still four Highnesses under the Barcelius family. I, Wimbledon, am alone and want to maintain the glory of my ancestors in the Iron Mountain Empire, so I can only seek external reinforcements. As you said at the beginning, the southern extension is the retreat of the northern lords, and the northern expansion is the retreat of the southern lords. The token of the ancient coin represents a secret alliance...... I want our relationship to go further, and I want a companion ring in addition to a token of alliance. ”

Victor was immediately embarrassed, he should have thought that the Sarsangian Empire was now turbulent, and Andrea felt the pressure of the four Golden Knights and leaked the secret alliance between her and himself to Orokxia. The Duchess of Barcelius encouraged her to deepen her relationship with the Count of Golden-Eye, and above all, to make it public.

This kind of thing doesn't need evidence, just the aftermath.

As soon as Emperor Frederick died, the Barcelius family could no longer suppress the cries of the vassal lords, and Andrea publicly admitted that she was the lover of His Highness Randall, which amounted to an informal marriage between the two parties. Barcelius thus told the lords of the Sassan Empire, and to the Knights of Radiance, that they had political channels with the core of the Nantuo Lords' group.

This was both a courtesy of the Northern Lords and a warning temptation to the Radiant Knights.

Weakening the Radiant Knights' direct control over the Northern Empire is in line with the wishes of all secular lords. But Victor didn't want to wade into the troubled waters of the Sarsan Empire, because the stakes were high, and he had to consult Sylvia and the Kite Castle to make a decision, at least to see the attitude and backhand of the Knights of Radiance.

Clark generously let Victor have a private meeting with Andrea, can the Knights of Radiance be prepared?

Andrea was worried that Empress Verrotica's love affair with Prince Draven was her girlhood's fantasy, but she wasn't a god knight, what she really fantasized about was the favor of the sun elves. The encounter in the forest of Greyhound Village was a dream come true.

She herself couldn't tell whether the bold show of love to Victor was out of consideration for the interests of the family, or whether she was "forced to marry" her sweetheart in the name of family interests.

Victor touched his nose and said helplessly: "It seems that the female knights I rescued have all become my lovers in the end." ”

Andrea's heart was full of joy, and she smiled, as glamorous as a peach and plum.

She actually misunderstood, the olive branch handed over by the Iron Mountain Empire, Victor couldn't refuse immediately, he could only delay.

Victor did not correct Andrea's incomprehension, but said: "The time has not come, Roland is in danger, I must bring her back." ”

Andrea nodded and said apologetically, "My dear, we also want to help Princess Auguste, but we really can't catch up with her. His Highness Monstock also stopped me, saying that I would be a burden to His Highness August. ”

Victor bowed his head and said, "I'll go to support Roland...... You tell me, why did the Great Centaur Khan go west, and not east?"

Andrea said: "Some time ago, we captured a centaur commander, and the beast wizard I raised learned that when the Centaur Great Khan gathered the centaur gang, he told them that there is a test of the Earth Mother in the west, and whoever can pass the test of the Earth Mother will be favored by the Mother Earth. ”

Victor's thoughts were fluttering, all kinds of information were pieced together, and the context of the matter finally became clear.

The centaur gang is being pursued by human cavalry, and is in a desperate situation, and the entire race is in danger of being destroyed. But the centaur gang doesn't think about the future of the race, they just want to survive. The Centaur Great Khan rescued some of the gangs and led them into the heart of the Human Empire to save more of his kind, but the centaur warriors who followed him were a dead end, so it created an illusory hope that there would be a test of Mother Earth to the west.

This method of deceiving his subordinates has been used by many outstanding leaders. But who has deceived themselves?

The Centaur Great Khan broke out of the siege in the camp of Little Cow Village, and it could go back to the eastern wilderness, but it did not go back, and entered the Wharton Prairie and continued to run westward, obviously believing that there was a test of the Earth Mother in the west.

How could Mother Earth be manifested? If She could be revealed, the northern barbarians would not have the belief in the gods. Thus, Mother Earth has become a pan-ideological ancient god who will never show a test to a centaur.

Who lied to the centaur Great Khan?

It can only be a human wizard, and a series of self-defeating actions of the Sidon Centaur are secretly manipulated by human wizards.

At the moment, the biggest beneficiary of the orc war is the Knights of Radiance.

The problem arises again, assuming that the wizarding organization secretly controlled by the Radiant Knights planned a centaur suicide orc war, the fall of Emperor Sassan was an unacceptable accident for the Radiant Knights.

The biggest beneficiaries have become the Barcelius family again.

The Sorcerer's obedience to the Knights of Radiance and their secret contact with the Barcelius family in an attempt to free themselves from the inquisition's enslavement make sense.

Including, that assassination in the Giant Wood Forest!

Victor suspects that the mysterious assassin is related to the evil gods, and his motives are unpredictable. However, Victor now believes that the Barcelius family has leaked his whereabouts. He had tempted the Duke of Barcelius with indifference and vigilance.

The temptation has finally worked!

Oroxia has been promoted to a legend, and she has the confidence, and it is necessary to have a showdown with the Count of Golden-Eye.

That beast whisperer was not Andrea's recovered wandering wizard at all, but a member of the wizarding organization. Oloxia exposes this fact through Andrea, saying that she also wants to know what is going on in the Giant Wood Forest?

In other words, the Barcelius family had nothing to do with the assassination.

The Barcelius family sold the wizarding organization to Victor and took a Tempest Knight.

As long as Victor is willing, Oroxia has a hundred ways to get Andrea to "voluntarily" break away from the Iron Mountain Empire and become his ban. The premise is that both parties sit down and have a good talk.

Victor rejects Andrea's courtship, saying that there is nothing to talk about. He didn't want to know the secrets of the wizarding organization.

Although Andrea has conceived two excellent offspring and can no longer have children, there is nothing wrong with Gombis having a konjac potion and a tempest female knight in the centaur hills. What's more, Victor's acceptance of Andrea is equivalent to gaining the support of the Iron Mountain Empire, which is very beneficial to the Southern Empire.

Oroxia was confident that Victor would not refuse.

On the other hand, making Andrea's relationship with Count Golden-Eye public is certainly a warning test for the Knights of Radiance, and if the Knights react violently, Oroksia can plant everything on Andrea's head and kick her to Victor's side. not only cleared up the relationship, corrected the attitude, but also broke the connection with the Cambys, so that the Glorious Knights were bogeyed.

Victor didn't know if Andrea was stupid or if Oroxia was too smart.

It is worthy of being a character that Sylvia is afraid of, moisturizing things silently!

Beauty is in her arms, but Victor thinks about the schemes behind Oroxia's cuteness and beauty.

...... Wait for me to sweep your vault clean with rock bricks, and there will be a day when you want to cry without tears!

The top priority is to support the bold Roland first...... Victor gently pushed away the soft and boneless Andrea, and said, "Where is the beast wizard now? You don't have to tell me now, when Roland and I come back, I want to see him." ”

Andrea breathed a sigh of relief, she really didn't know where the Beast Wizard had been hidden by Orokxia.

"Okay, wait until you come back. I brought him to you. The countess bit her red lip lightly and said a little shyly, "You must give me a companion ring first...... I'm just meeting your requirements. ”

The corners of Victor's mouth outlined a mysterious and elegant smile, and his eyes were hidden and deep, and he said, "Honey, you will definitely get the ring." I promise......"

...... Someone has already prepared the ring...... He added in his heart.
