Coop's death was like throwing a pebble at Lake Glemu, which caused a small ripple in the Marquis's palace and then quickly subsided, without even a single bubble. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The Marquis of Info Ponn remembered his past merits and gave his family a bereavement in the name of the war dead, which can be regarded as a benevolent and righteous fulfillment.
The beneficiary of this big and small turmoil is undoubtedly Han Fei, he proved his identity with facts, and he also gained greater trust from Marquis Ponne, and no one can question his identity in the future.
It's just that what Han Fei didn't know was that he thought he had survived a crisis, and he didn't expect that this incident was just the beginning of a real crisis!
A few days later, a huge snowstorm struck the Storm Fortress, and the storm from the Frost Mountains of the Far North swept through half of the northern prairie with countless frost and snow, and finally stopped at the foot of the Ares Mountains that stretched for thousands of miles, causing great disaster to the tribesmen around the fortress.
Thousands of tents were crushed by the snow, countless cattle and sheep froze to death, and tens of thousands of tribal civilians lost their shelters and flocked to the city to survive. But at this time, the Storm Fortress entered a state of martial law, and the garrison sent a large number of patrols into the northern area to maintain law and order, and the city gate was even more heavily guarded, except for the caravans and clans that had been permitted, everyone was allowed to enter, and all the civilians were blocked from the city.
However, after the heavy snowfall, the Duke of Ascot also sent a group of men and supplies to help the civilians of the tribe who had lost their homes to set up tents, shelter and distribute food, avoiding a disaster of hunger and cold.
Han Fei stood on the balcony of the villa, looking at the fortress covered in heavy snow, surrounded by a white world, and the turbid air he exhaled condensed into a cloud of white mist in the air.
A light gray light suddenly shot from a distance, and quickly swept over his body, like a letter spit out by a poisonous snake brushing and licking, making people shudder.
The beam of probing light came from a wizard's tower a few hundred meters away, and on the platform at the top of the tower was a huge black eye suspended out of thin air, and black flames burned around the eye, and it was it that emitted countless rays of light that swept over the fortress one after another.
And the hundreds of wizard towers of all sizes in the fortress have such black eyes, their intertwined beams and nets completely cover the entire fortress, except for a few special places, almost all the streets and alleys have been affected, unless they hide in the house, it is difficult for people who appear on the street to escape the scanning and detection of the beams.
This is the wizard's eye unique to the wizard's tower, it is a high-level spell, due to the huge spiritual power consumed, it will not be opened under normal circumstances, and once opened, the entire fortress will be under the supervision of the wizard tower, and every move in the city can not escape the eyes of the wizards, and the wizard's eye also has the same effect as the real eye, all the disguises and illusions will be invisible under its illumination!
The state of martial law and the opening of the Wizard's Eye meant that something very important was going to happen in the Raging Storm Fortress, and was this the Burning Flame Legion coming from afar? Han Fei couldn't help but fall into deep thought, although he could confirm that the Burning Flame Legion was already on its way to the fortress, but when the Legion arrived, why it would come all the way in this harsh winter season that was not conducive to marching, all kinds of mysteries still needed to be solved.
While Han Fei was meditating, a person quietly appeared behind him, gently draped a cloak over his body, and said softly, "My lord, it's cold outside, be careful of catching a cold." ”
Han Fei smiled slightly, turned around and hugged Naria behind him, kissed her, and said, "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
People can be ruthless, although Naria's identity is just a maid, but after getting along for a long time, Han Fei also has some feelings for her.
Naria leaned her head in his arms, greedily absorbing the warmth from Han Fei's chest, she closed her eyes and muttered, "Just now, Lord Marquis sent someone to say, please go to the council hall after breakfast, there are important matters to discuss, I have prepared breakfast." ”
Is it finally coming? Han Fei suddenly perked up: "Let's go!"
By the time Han Fei arrived at the Marquis's Mansion chamber, it was already full of people, family elders, elders, knights, warriors, and so on were all important figures in the Luo Luo family, and Han Fei only knew some of them.
Among these figures, a black-robed wizard caught Han Fei's attention, she had long white hair that hung straight down her waist, her beautiful jade face was extremely cold, as if it was the eternal ice on the top of the snow peak, and her azure eyes were shrouded in a faint mist, looking very mysterious.
In her hand, she held a snow-white dragon staff like jade, the tail of the dragon was the end of the dragon's body, and the hideous dragon held a silver spirit crystal the size of a fist, exuding a scorching brilliance.
Vivien, on the other hand, leaned against the wizard like a kitten, and the relationship between the two seemed very intimate.
This sorceress was undoubtedly Vivien's mentor and one of the most mysterious patriarchs of the Rollo family, and although he had heard the name a lot, it was the first time Han Fei had seen a real person.
Seeing Han Fei coming in, Vivien raised her head and winked at him, and the Silver Neon Wizard noticed it, and her gaze immediately swept over.
Her gaze was as cold as substance, and Han Fei, who was being watched, actually had a feeling of being seen through, and there were actually a few goosebumps on her body, and she couldn't help but feel a little shocked in her heart.
The Great Wizard of the Seventh Order was indeed an existence that people looked up to, and just by looking at Han Fei, he could feel the unfathomable power she contained.
After glancing at Han Fei, the Silver Neon Wizard withdrew his gaze and lowered his head to whisper something to Vivien, causing Vivian to hold her arm and keep coquettish.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Han Fei hurriedly sat down in a position belonging to the family knights, and then Marquis Ponn came to the council chamber, and the meeting officially began.
"Ladies and gentlemen, you have been summoned today because you have an extremely important matter to announce. Marquis Bonne's deep voice echoed in the council chamber: "And this matter is very likely to be related to the future of our Rollo family!"
There was silence in the council chamber, and everyone listened intently, the Marquis of Bonne would never say anything on such an occasion, and what he was about to announce would undoubtedly concern everyone present.
"The Flame Legion, the Second Imperial Guards Legion, will arrive at the fortress in three days, and the Black Hawk Sky Cavalry of the Legion arrived in advance two days ago, and conveyed the order from His Majesty the Emperor!" the Marquis paused for a moment and said, "The Flame Legion will launch an unprecedented expedition against our enemies, with the goal of capturing the Red River Fortress, and our Luo Luo family will join it!"
As soon as the marquis's voice fell, the entire council hall suddenly became a sensation, as long as it was a person in the Storm Fortress, there was no one who did not want to one day be able to capture the Red River Fortress and recreate the glory of a hundred years ago, and the wealth of the Glow Empire did not know how many people coveted it.
It's just that in the past hundred years, the barbarian army has been bleeding in front of the Red River Fortress, and they have tried all the methods, and the expedition has been launched twice, but all of them ended in failure.
While everyone was talking, an elder stood up and asked: "Pang En, in the past hundred years, the children of our family have paid too much blood and sacrifice to break through the Red River Fortress, as a member of the empire, it is natural to serve the empire, but to carry out an expedition in winter, how to ensure logistics and supplies, and how much manpower and material resources ?....do we have to pay?
This series of questions is exactly what most people want to ask, and joining the expedition of the Emperor [***] regiment is definitely not a trivial matter.
"Everyone must believe that our great Emperor His Majesty will not ignore the previous two failures..."The Marquis smiled: "This expedition is definitely not like the previous two, the probability of success is very high, but for the sake of secrecy, I can't tell you the specific details now!"
"Believe me, this expedition will be an opportunity for our Luo Luo family to rise again, once the expedition successfully captures the Red River Fortress, our family will have the opportunity to return to Yanjing, so we will go all out!"
Although the Luo Luo family is rooted in the Storm Fortress, it was a medium-sized family in Yanjing a hundred years ago, but it was forced to migrate to the Storm after losing the battle with the opponent, and it has never given up the dream of returning to Yanjing for a hundred years.
The buzz subsided, and the prestige of the Marquis of Bonne in the family made everyone choose trust and obedience.
And although Han Fei was silent on the surface, he set off huge waves in his heart, and it could be completely seen from the confident expression of Marquis Ponne that this expedition was definitely not trivial, and the Titan Empire was bound to win, otherwise there would be no appearance of the Flame Legion.
Since it was an expedition, it must not be a storming of the Red River Fortress, he couldn't think of what kind of method the barbarian side would use to cross the Tempra of the God of War Mountain Range to achieve such an expedition, and they wouldn't all have wings and fly over, right?
But if the barbarian army really captured the Red River Fortress, it would undoubtedly be a profound disaster for the Glowing Empire, including the entire Terrans.
Although Han Fei is not from this world, there are people in this world that he needs to protect!
Thinking of this, a sharp light flashed in his eyes!
