The lobby of the Executive Residence.

"What's going on?" Chino looked at Paladin, who was beaten all over his body, tied up with flowers, fell to the ground coughing up blood from time to time, and spilled strawberry hard candy in his arms.

Fike was followed by seven or eight followers, and he kicked Paladin in the face and sneered, "Hey, it seems that you didn't take care of your dog, let him..."

Chino: "Did I let you speak?" ”

Fick was interrupted and glared at Chino.

Chino looked at Paladin, "Speak." ”

Paladin spat out a mouthful of blood foam, and his voice was hoarse: "He led people to bully a child on the side of the road, and I couldn't stand it, so I got into a fight with them, and accidentally killed his attendants in the fight." ”

Chino pointed at Fick, "It sounds like it's your fault." ”

Fike's eyes widened: "You say it again?!" ”

Chino: "Your people bully the commoners, and Paladin, as the centurion of Twilight, has a legitimate reason to stop it." Moreover, when two people fight, the fault is always the one who is killed, and weakness is the original sin. ”

Fike was furious: "You say it again??!! ”

Chino's face was suddenly full of doubts: "Is it because of your ears, or is my Dogoran not standard?" Why do you ask me to say it again every time I say it? ”

Fike's forehead erupted, and he roared angrily: "I am the son of the warrior under the sword and shield of the royal family, Fick Troy!" Remember my name, you dog thing! ”

The smile on Chino's face faded away: "You don't understand what politeness is, do you?" ”

Just when the atmosphere became depressing, a hearty laugh came from outside the door: "Hahaha, my son is not sensible, and I ask the Chino administrator not to worry about him." ”

Chino looked over, and a man over 1.9 meters tall walked into the hall, he had a thick beard on his face, a round face, and thick eyebrows, looking a bit like a simple bear.

The man wore a badge with swords and shields on it, indicating that he belonged to the Trojan family, one of the five kings of Dogurland.

The royal family, that is, the five major families who followed the "ancient kings" to conquer the whole territory during the conflict of the eight kings in the 2188 year of the Divine Fall calendar.

The Ancient King, that is, the "Doguland I" who ascended to the throne in the first year of the Fire Calendar after the end of the conflict between the Eight Kings.

In the kingdom of Doguland, the nobility was superior to the commoners and slaves, and the nobles of the royal family enjoyed more privileges than the common nobles.

The five royal families are: Regnome, Hitch, Eric, Dagon, and Troy.

Together with the royal family, they formed the core of Doguland's ruling class, which has flourished to this day.

The Trojan family used swords and shields as their banners and advocated force, and most of their retainers were warriors of the kingdom.

Twenty-six years ago, 500 years after the death of the previous king, Doguland XXIV took over the throne, and when the regime was unstable, the Far Eastern Dynasty invaded on a large scale, which was the famous "Laurel War".

During the war, the five royal families fought bloodily, especially the Trojans, who proved their loyalty, but at a very heavy cost.

In addition to the losses of the Trojans, the Trojan family territory was also the epicenter of the outbreak of the bestiality epidemic at the time, and the turmoil during the war made it difficult for them to admit the infected, causing the epidemic to spread, and no one in the family was spared.

However, the gods seem to have played a big joke on them.

As we all know, bestiality is incurable, mutates the body and erodes the mind.

But in fact, the beastly body gives the infected extraordinary powers, as the ferocious plague beast is a good example.

Later, the plague doctors of the Crimson Church found a special factor, which synthesized purified blood that can suppress infectivity, and if the quality is high enough, it can even degenerate the beast parts, producing "reversibility" without losing their minds.

In other words, as long as high-quality blood therapy is carried out for a long time, the infected person can freely switch between "humanoid" and "beast".

In the end, the Trojan family accepted the fate that befell them, and no longer resisted the beast plague, but used the blood healing of the Crimson Church, and even let the later heirs and retainers take the initiative to infect them, creating batch after batch of extraordinary people with the body of the plague beast, and the strength of the family is also very loud again.

Since this special factor is very difficult to extract, the price is naturally also very expensive.

The low-level purified blood used by the civilian infected can be settled with the Iron Moon, and its effect is limited to suppressing infectivity.

And the high-grade purified blood used by the Trojan family infected must be settled at least with the silver moon, and the top-level ones even use the golden moon.

Of course, for the huge wealth of the royal family, this kind of expenditure is only the end of the time.

According to the strength of the beastified individuals, the Trojan family divides the transcendents under their command into 7 sequences - Fighter, Orc, Doom, Demon Trainer, Abomination, Curser, and Night Spirit.

Tier 1 has the lowest fighter rank, but the beast is still strong enough to compete with dozens of elite soldiers.

As for the Nocturne of the 7th sequence, there has only been one in the history of the Trojans, and no one knows its combat power, and everyone who has seen it has died.

The tall man who is now walking towards Chino is, judging by the badge he wears, a third-sequence doom.

His son, Fick Troy, does not have a sword and shield insignia, and should be underage, not old enough to actively infect him.

As a royal family, Troy itself is a privileged class, second only to the royal family.

The six major provinces of the Kingdom of Doguland - Cardinal Province, Treading Feather Province, Gray Mist Province, Flying Kite Province, Moon Seeking Province, and Beacon Province - Twilight City are subordinate to the Beacon Province, and the supreme administrator of the provincial capital "Fengyun Pass" is the head of the Trojan family.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Beacon Province is the stronghold of the Trojan family, and this is their home.

It's no wonder that Fick Troy dared to let his retinue attack Paladin in the street, as the heir of the royal family, and in the Beacon Province, a small centurion of Twilight City was in front of him, and his status was probably really similar to that of a dog.

...

The tall man walked over with a smile and greeted Chino in a friendly manner: "Hello, Administrator Chino, I am the military commander of Twilight City, Brooke Troy. When you took office a few days ago, I had official business, so I didn't have time to visit, so please forgive me. ”

Chino smiled: "It's okay, I understand the sincerity." ”

"Hahaha, just now I heard from my subordinates that my son had something unpleasant with your centurion." Brooke glanced at Paladin with a smile and approvingly, "The deceased was my son's retinue, and he also carried runic weapons. This centurion was able to kill him with a steel sword, and he was also a warrior. ”

Chino smiled and said, "Paladin is a very good centurion, and he has always been by my side during the attack and defense of Shirintown, and he has not retreated. If you also appreciate him, you might as well turn the war into a jade silk, and I will personally bring him to the door another day to apologize. ”

Brooke still smiled, making people feel very honest, but there was a murderous intent hidden in his soft words: "I'm afraid I have a problem with this." Now half of Twilight City knows that my Trojan protégé was killed in the street by the new centurion, like a slaughtered dog. If I don't care about this, I'm afraid it will affect the prestige of the family. ”

Chino glanced at Fike: "I've already told Ling Lang that it's not Paladin's fault. Of course, the dead are greater, and I will make Paladin sincerely apologize and compensate the Trojans, you can offer a price. ”

Brooke's smile became more and more faint, and it also seemed terrifying: "You have misunderstood one thing, Administrator Chino, maybe in your eyes, human life can be measured in monthly coins, my doorman has already marked the price in your heart, just like dog meat sold outside, as long as you spend money to buy it." But there's one thing you've forgotten, and that's blood. ”

"In the Laurel War 26 years ago, do you know what the Far Eastern Dynasty was most afraid of? They are not afraid of the scorching sun of the royal family of Dogulland, they are not afraid of the dragon knights of the Regnome family soaring into the sky, they are not afraid of the alchemists of the Hitch family who drank potions, they are not afraid of the ever-changing soul magic of the Eric family, they are not afraid of the power of the Dagon family from the abyss under the sea, they are most afraid of the Trojan family, they are most afraid of us.

"Because we never compromise, the whole family is bound together by a bond of iron and blood, and for every drop of blood shed, we pay back tenfold." Brooke gripped the hilt of the knife, as if there were thousands of knives in his eyes, and a bloody tone fluttered, "When a family member is violated, there is only one rule of Troy, and that is our clan language - blood for blood!" ”
