In any case, this street provocation incident is over for the time being, Ryan and they simply went directly to the place where they registered, and when they arrived at the place, Ryan found that this place was actually opposite the military camp of the Royal Knights.

"Alas, in the end, I still have to deal with Big Brother Orlando, I hope he won't blame me when he knows the truth of the matter in the future. Ryan thought silently in his heart, but he quickly put all the negative emotions behind him, and instead stepped into the registration room with great energy, the real battle was about to begin, and Ryan had no power to be distracted.

This time, the entourage who followed Ryan to the imperial capital was one in a hundred, and Ryan tried his best to encourage them to sign up for the purpose of training his subordinates, so Hulala suddenly more than 30 people followed Ryan to participate in this competitive competition, if it weren't for Barbara's young age, no actual combat experience, and her own magic strength, Ryan even wanted to sign up for Barbara.

Originally, Ryan also hoped that Vivian would also sign up, but Vivian refused with a smile, and Ryan was not reluctant, and just said a few words casually. Having done this most important thing, the only thing for Ryan to do now is to wait slowly for the convention to begin, and then he will find a suitable opportunity to sneak into the Royal Academy of Magic and find a way to return to Victor's private magic tower.

By the time Ryan and his entourage returned to the pre-purchased residence and settled down, it was almost dinner time, and Ryan had also received three invitations, one was an invitation from Birmingham-Fernando, the representative of the current imperial capital Fernando royal family, thinking that the group of people who challenged Ryan today also belonged to a certain member of the Fernando royal family, then the content of tonight's banquet can be imagined.

The second invitation was sent by the Chancellor of the Exchequer of the Imperial Capital, and the invitation was just an understatement of wanting to discuss some business dealings with Ryan about Cassano, but now everyone knew that the Chancellor of the Exchequer of the Imperial Capital was a descendant of Faraz, so although Ryan wanted to meet Faraz very much, he still forcibly put up with it.

To Lane's surprise, the owner of the third invitation was Orlando, the head of the Royal Knights, and this invitation invited Ryan to a banquet in Orlando's private capacity, and the address of the banquet was just an ordinary small hotel. For this man who has the reputation of "God of War" among the people, Ryan has always respected him very much, but now is not the opportunity to meet the other party.

Although Ryan has been away for 3 years, he still sent a small number of scouts to the imperial capital to inquire about the news when he passed through Cassano, coupled with the little information that Alendor provided him, Ryan knew that the current imperial capital had been faintly divided into three factions, with Queen Catherine as the main faction, plus many Fernando royal families and most of the nobles as one faction, and the other faction was with the archcon Faraz, plus Luke's original subordinates and several more important officials in the imperial capital, as well as Victor's support.

And this third faction is the Royal Knights of Orlando and a large number of elite troops. It was precisely because of Orlando's existence that the contradiction between Faras and Catherine did not break out, and the contradiction between the commoners and nobles in the imperial capital was well suppressed. Now that Ryan came to the imperial capital, he was immediately faced with the choice of the three factions, and he began to have a headache.

The biggest purpose of Ryan's trip is to expose Catherine's conspiracy, not to get caught up in the never-ending political struggle, so he decided to directly cancel these 3 banquets at the suggestion of Adams, since he is the overlord of Cassano and came to the imperial capital in person, then the intention of befriending the imperial capital has been fully revealed, as for which political faction to fall to, it depends on which of you can offer a higher price.

Therefore, Ryan refused the banquet of the three families on the grounds that he needed to meditate in order to better prepare for the competitive competition. However, Ryan didn't really plan to stay at home like this, and just took advantage of tonight's great opportunity to infiltrate the Royal Academy of Magic. It was easy to wait until night, when the imperial capital was at its most lively, and Ryan slipped out of the residence with the cooperation of Vivien and disappeared into the streets of the imperial capital, and the spies who were monitoring outside did not find that the target they were monitoring was gone.

Birmingham's villa in the suburbs was brightly lit tonight, and he invited nobles from all over the mainland to the banquet tonight, and the only thing the invited guests had in common was to pay homage to the Fernando royal family. It's just that Birmingham, as the host, did not shuttle among the guests to socialize, but stayed in the secret room of the study.

The people in the same secret room with Birmingham are all elites of the Fernando royal family, but these usually very proud royals have great respect for a woman in the room, even to the point of respect, because that woman is the nominal queen of the empire, Her Majesty Fernando Catherine Landy.

Because she was traveling secretly, Catherine was wearing just ordinary civilian clothes, but she still couldn't hide her peerless appearance, and she was listening carefully to Birmingham's report to Ryan's party.

"That's all we have at hand. Birmingham briefly described all the experiences of Ryan from the time he entered the city to the time he returned to his residence in front of Catherine, then thought about it, and added: "He has sent someone to refuse tonight's banquet, but according to the information, the magician also rejected the banquet of the other two families, and concentrated on meditating in the residence." ”

"It's a pity, I thought I could win over this Cassano overlord. Catherine shook her head slightly: "Today it was that guy's servant who went to provoke the other party, don't you know the importance of this area of Cassano to the imperial capital?"

"This ......," Birmingham hesitated, but still spoke: "The fellow has already begged me for mercy, and he said that one of his butlers saw that the women who were with Fabia were of good quality, so he pleaded with him...... Didn't expect ......"

"Stupid! if you can snatch those women away casually, it won't be his turn!" Catherine's cold words let Birmingham know that she was angry in her heart now, and that the royal family who caused trouble today must be unlucky.

Sure enough, Catherine continued: "Thrown into your farm and confined for three years, he will be fed and clothed like an ordinary farmer, and he will not be allowed to have any contact with outsiders without my permission!

"Yes. Birmingham didn't expect Catherine's punishment to be very severe, although for a gentleman, this is already the worst torture in the world, and if you lose your freedom, you can't ask for flowers and willows, and I'm afraid that many young people in the royal family will lose the motivation to live.

Catherine's words suddenly softened, and she said, "Since I am the wife of Fernando XIII, I will naturally support you, and I will slowly restore the honor of the royal family. However, if all of us are such fools, then we might as well honestly go back to our fiefdom and close the door for the rest of our lives. I was able to become a queen because of the support of my people, and Luke did not dare to usurp the throne when he held the power, except for fear of Orlando, but also for fear of opposition from tens of millions of people in the imperial capital. ”

"Her Majesty is right!" all the elites of the Fernando royal family present naturally knew this truth and accepted it humbly.

Catherine dealt with the matter, and after a little thought, then said, "As for this overlord of Cassano, let me go and see him personally." However, he may not be staying at home honestly tonight, so let's choose another time. Cassano is very important to our emperor, everyone must pay attention to it, and we must let this Fabia join our side, otherwise the reputation will all go to Farath's side. ”

If they knew what Catherine was thinking when she said this, they would probably immediately fall to Faraz, because the reason why the impulsive and lustful Fernando royal family provoked Ryan on the street today was precisely because of Catherine's influence, Catherine had already placed people around these Fernando royal families who were attached to her.

With the death of Ibel and the damage of the Scepter of the Burning Angel, coupled with the fact that some Priests of Light disobeyed Red's management and left other cities such as the Imperial Capital of Freedom Paradise, this is equivalent to the former powerful Church of Light slowly splitting, so Catherine's activities are becoming more and more unrestrained.

The reason why the guy with the brain of the sperm worm is so bold as to send people to rob people in the street today is that Catherine manipulated it with some kind of magic that can control people's minds, but this kind of magic is extremely ineffective on people with strong willpower, and the mind of the recipient will also become chaotic and completely become a puppet in Catherine's hands.

The reason why she wants to do this is to force Ryan to give up and throw himself into the imperial capital, whether Lane, the overlord of Cassano is self-reliant or to other forces in the south, it is better than falling to the imperial capital, because only when the power of the imperial capital is getting weaker and weaker, can the continent become more and more chaotic, and mankind will once again fall into a never-ending war.

In total, there are now seven large and small forces on the mainland, the imperial capital that has lost most of the actual ruling power of the empire, the Clay tribe who occupy part of the Talen grassland and part of the Hengduan Mountains, Senat who occupies Seke City and breaks away from the rule of the imperial capital, Mochizuki City that is constantly expanding south, Free Paradise that declares neutrality, and this small, emerging plain of Cassano, and the orcs who are eyeing the north.

Seeing the resurgence of strife on the mainland, it seems that she is about to fall into the abyss of the Hundred Years War of the Seven Kingdoms again, Catherine's heart is full of hope for her future, the ruler of a plane is definitely the supreme existence, Catherine is now just hanging the name of a queen, she has already enjoyed the pleasure of power, if you can enslave a creature with hundreds of millions of memories on a plane, what a wonderful scene it should be?

It's a pity that Catherine released the Lich Circle with blood as a medium: years, which led to her own overconsumption, and she temporarily lost the ability to cast spells after she woke up, and she briefly lost the contact with her teacher in the other world, the demigod Lich, although Catherine slowly recovered her magic after more than half a year, but Faras was already in Victor** With the support of the division, she slowly took over the influence of her father Luke, which made Catherine miss the best opportunity, and now she can only win over the unwilling Fernando royal family and slowly create all kinds of troubles for Faraz's consummation.
