Walk through the territory of Lyon, and the province of Noy is in sight. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the way, Augustus didn't pay attention to Lyon's heir Matthew, not disdainfully, it was unnecessary, Augustus also knew that even if he didn't meet this young master Matthew, he would always run into other young masters or a certain lord, and what he needed to face in the end was still the people in the imperial capital.

And as he expected, the Count of Leon's Knights of the Horned Eagle Beast really did not relent, this should not only be because his heir was held hostage by Augustus, but also because there were other reasons, such as Augustus guessing that someone was helping him all the way and influencing the decision of the Count of Lyon?

As for who is helping him leave the Empire.

Augustus could think of two names, Mass, Diana.

But he could never have known their true intentions.

When he arrived at Noi, Augustus asked old Vernon to let Matthew go, this is obviously a smart noble heir, in the case of the complete unequal strength of the two sides, Master Matthew did not say anything, nor did he show hatred, but just said to Augustus with a blank face that he was looking forward to the next meeting, and he and his leader of the Horned Eagle Beast Knights returned to the territory of Lyon. Of course, although there is no hatred, everyone knows that if they really have the chance to meet next time, I believe that Young Master Matthew will definitely be more prepared, even if Augustus has his old butler with the strength of the Sword Saint by his side, Leon will always have Leon's way.

Augustus arrived in the evening in the city of Ferry.

When Baron Rudolph, who was stationed in Ferry City, the Alfred family, saw his earl, the young man just helped Elizabeth out of the carriage, he could hardly see the change from when he left the wasteland more than a month ago, of course, more than a month itself is difficult to make any changes in a person, but I don't know why, Rudolph looked at the young man calmly walking towards him, he didn't even dare to look into his eyes subconsciously, although he didn't know what he, the young count, had done and what had happened to him in the imperial capital, but there was one thing, he definitely knew。

When the titan Ares returned to the north with Terina, he passed by Noi after all.

Rudolph probably wouldn't know what the Titan Giant's sudden arrival in the Holy Imperial Capital had to do with his Earl, but as Alfre's servant, he must have known that there had always been such a little girl by his count's side, and it just so happened that this time he also heard that when the Titan Giant passed through Noi, it seemed that there was also a little girl sitting on his shoulder, so these things were all connected, and the rich experience was certainly enough to make Rudolph think more- In fact, when the Lich invaded last winter, many people in the wasteland didn't know about that invasion, why only the ugly orcs came to the north, but not the truly terrifying Titans and Lich Shamans of the previous years, and now, he thought he knew.

It turned out that his earl had such an unbelievable relationship with the Northern Titans and Shamans.

They actually descended to the Holy Empire and appeared in the imperial capital with his count!

Rudolph may not have thought too much about what this meant, but at least he could think that the most formidable enemies of the wasteland, the Northern Lich Court, the Alfred family, probably didn't need to worry too much.

That said, it might be possible for his Earl to change the situation in which the wasteland faces an annual Lich invasion.

And once the Lich no longer goes south, how far can Alfred go with the current power structure of the wasteland?

Rudolph felt that this was no longer what he could imagine.

......

Augustus took Elizabeth's hand and walked in front of Baron Rudolph, and did not have a sense of the so-called aftermath of the catastrophe because he saw his acquaintance, nor did he feel too many complicated emotions about returning from the imperial capital, but just glanced at the seemingly younger baron, he felt the other party's caution, and asked casually: "Are you ready?"

Rudolph bowed and saluted: "According to your orders, everything is ready." ”

He followed Augustus into the manor, stepped onto the path paved with fine gravel, and added: "The materials on everything that has happened in the wasteland lately are placed in the study, and the person you asked Captain Katiene to bring back from the imperial capital is also locked in the hut, guarded by Captain Katienian himself, without any problems. ”

Augustus nodded silently.

The person that Katieeni brought back from the imperial capital was naturally the adventurer hired by Elizabeth, and after the Quentin of the Pompey family provided him with information, he asked the old Vernon to keep that person, in fact, the old Vernon was to help Katieeni, after all, the strength of that adventurer was not something that Katiene could deal with.

As for the time when Katieeni arrived in the imperial capital, Elizabeth had already made arrangements when Elizabeth hired the adventurer, and Elizabeth's plan at that time was to hire adventurers to take Augustus out of Violet Manor, and then Alfre's knight would pick him up, and finally return to the wasteland.

It's just that the appearance of Terina and the Titans forced Elizabeth's plan to change slightly.

This was the only reason why old Vernon was able to appear outside Lyon in time, he only needed to subdue the adventurer after all.

Walk into the estate.

Augustus was not in a hurry to deal with his affairs, all the way to the road coupled with the fear on the road, even if he was fine, he had to take care of Elizabeth's mental state, Baron Rudolph had already prepared dinner, Augustus accompanied Elizabeth to dine first, but this was destined to be a silent dinner, it can be seen that Elizabeth is indeed tired, she is just a 16-year-old child, when they finished the meal, the baron also prepared hot water, Augustus watched Elizabeth go to the bath and rest, and then thought about it, and then walked back to the study prepared for him by Rudolph first。

On the desk, there are two thick stacks of materials.

One is the matter in Alfred's territory, Augustus was the first to look at this, nothing worthy of his attention happened, the excavation of the Nile River in charge of Baron Marshall continued in an orderly manner, if nothing else, when the cold winter comes, it should be able to preliminarily solve the problem of lack of water in Alfred's fiefdom; The only thing that can be called substantial progress is that her 'Moulin Rouge' has entered the construction stage, and it will take some time to put it into use.

This was actually due to Alfred's lack of upfront funding, and in the end, Augustus had initially only exploited Lady Mary for a sum of gold for construction.

However, I believe that with a huge income in the imperial capital, these problems can be solved, and the progress will soon keep up.

The second piece of information is about the war in the wasteland.

The war is not over yet, but it is almost over.

Francis, who lost Sauron City, was basically at the end of his rope under the joint encirclement and suppression of Arthras and Stuart, and he could not have any allies in the entire wasteland, and even in his own territory he was becoming more and more **** , He is not far from being beheaded by Artelas, the reason why Francis has not completely perished is just that Arthras suddenly slowed down the pace of the attack, and on the premise of having a crushing advantage, Arthras chose to stabilize his rear first, completely control Sauron's territory, and then deal with Francis's jackal's strategy.

It doesn't really matter whether it was Arthras's dark psychology and his desire to watch Francis die in fear and perdition, or whether he had a far-sighted vision and had other ideas, but what matters is that his choice did interest Augustus a lot.

Under such uncommon hatred, Artelas can still make the most correct choice soberly, what will his future be?

You know, according to the information, he has completed his marriage to Stuart, so will the wasteland eventually become the wasteland of Sauron?

Augustus put down the information in his hand.

He wasn't at all worried that his enemies were too strong.

He had never been worried that he wasn't strong enough.
