The Casso Heights is located in the western part of the City of Glory, which is not considered a border area of the Odoli Empire, but a little west-central area. Therefore, it is not very far from the City of Glory, which can be reached in about ten days by carriage.

The Casso Heights belonged to the territory of the Marquis of Copac, and the place was not very large, with three cities, one large and two small, as well as hundreds of surrounding towns. Such an area of territory is a relatively small marquis territory in the Odoli Empire, but this territory of the Marquis of Kopache should not be underestimated, because the Marquis of Kopache family has been operating this territory for more than 300 years, although it is not a solid operation, but the Marquis of Kopache family has supreme power in the territory.

However, the Otoli Empire's practice of separating the command of the army from the management of various local lords made it impossible for the Marquis of Kopache to do whatever they wanted in the territory, and at best they could only be regarded as a single noble family, rather than a local emperor that no one dared to manage.

Compared with three hundred years ago, or even a hundred years ago, the Kopache family, who ruled this territory, was in decline, and this was not the result of the Ottoli Empire weakening their strength, on the contrary, the Empire still supported it from time to time. The main reason for the decline is still in the heir of the marquis, the contemporary Marquis of Kopache has average ability, although compared to the other nobles who corrupted the family, the Marquis of Kopache is a very good lord, but compared to the ancestors of the family, he can only be regarded as a mediocre person. After more than ten years of operation, it can already be seen that the ability of the Marquis of Kopache is definitely not good to forge ahead, and even the defense is relatively reluctant.

However, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and the family of the Marquis of Kopache fell again. He is also the lord of the Casso Heights, and the only great nobleman in the territory. No one else can afford to look down on them, let alone them. The Marquis of Kopache family has not really declined, but has only begun to show signs of decline, and is far from reaching the point of real decline.

Kolo, the son of the Marquis of Kopac, is a very good person, young and promising, steady in his work, and became a level 5 magician at a very young age, although many years have passed, he has not been promoted. But what does it matter? Chlo is the one who wants to inherit the title of Marquis in the future, and the mage profession is just a side hustle, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't advance.

The only wrong thing that Kolo did in his life was to provoke Ryan, in fact, many years ago, after Chloe suffered a loss at Ryan's hands, he sent a level 7 sword master to seriously injure Ryan, which is not a loss, which is in the eyes of Kolo and Marquis Kopacchi. It's not a big deal. But now, many years later, Ryan has returned to the City of Glory and has become a level 8 great swordsman and level 8 magister that is terrifying to think about. This time, Chloe was scared. The day after he learned of the news, he immediately returned to the Casso Heights, under the protection of his father's domain. He felt safer.

Khloe didn't know that Ryan still had the idea of not taking revenge, in his thoughts. Thought Ryan would get revenge. So he provoked Ryan very arrogantly, relying on his father's two level 7 magicians and three level 7 swordsmen. Subsequently. Kolo planned to strike first, and arranged a group of people to sneak attack Ryan with five high-level magic scrolls, but he didn't expect that under such a powerful magic attack, Ryan was not only not injured, but also knocked everyone down, and finally these people were caught by the official and confessed that Kolo was the mastermind behind the scenes.

At this point, Chloe panicked, and he eventually had to turn to his father, the Marquis of Copacz.

In fact, when Colo arranged a series of actions against Ryan, Marquis Kopache knew about it, but Colo was usually very productive and steady, and he did not prohibit Kolo from taking revenge on Ryan, in his opinion, killing a former enemy was not a big deal.

But now that he knew that Ryan was very powerful and had official support, the Marquis of Kopache also felt that things had become tricky. However, although his ability is average, after all, he is a man who has been a marquis for many years and knows how to deal with the aftermath. He prepared with two hands, one was to use an excuse to shirk the city guards' questioning of Kolo, and then to intercede with some nobles in the City of Glory to weaken the official pursuit of Kolo. The second is to protect Kolo, in addition to arranging a level 7 swordsman to protect Kolo, he will also arrange his own guards to keep an eye on every move in the territory to prevent Ryan from coming to take revenge.

The city of Cotte, the largest of the three cities in the Casso Heights, is also the largest city in the territory of the Marquis of Copacz, so the Marquis family is also in the city.

Recently, there have been many soldiers in the gates of Cotter City who are not dressed in the same clothes as the city guards, and they do different work from the city guards, and they do not do patrol inspections and other work, they just stand at the door, and then quietly stare at everyone who enters the city, as if they are looking for something.

However, they have been doing this work for more than 20 days, and in the first few days, they were still very motivated, but now, they are miserable, and this is also normal, and anyone who has been staring at the city gate for more than 20 days will not be able to stand it. However, they don't dare to leave their posts without permission, and they must persist no matter how uncomfortable they are, but this level of seriousness is greatly reduced.

No, when a group of large mercenary swordsmen entered the city just now, they only looked at them for a few moments, then ignored them and let them enter the city.

Soon, one of the big mercenaries left the group and walked around the city.

This big guy is Ryan, and his image at this time is very different from usual, and he is like two people. If you are not very familiar with Ryan and have the mentality of finding fault in your heart, you must have missed it and regarded Ryan as an ordinary person. Ryan's appearance has not changed, just applying a thin layer of black oil to his face, making his skin darker. In addition, Ryan replaced his usual well-made swordsman's suit with excellent fabrics and was replaced with the coarse cloth clothes that the poor man liked to wear. Ryan also carried an ordinary heavy sword that he bought at the blacksmith shop at random on his back, coupled with a completely restrained momentum. This time, Ryan is no different from those big mercenaries who are running around in the wind and sun.

"Alas! Sneaking into the city so easily, I don't know whether to be happy or angry. Ryan smiled wryly, he had already learned from the intelligence agents arranged by the Third Prince's magic before he came that the Marquis of Kopacz's guards were running amok in Cote City and were looking for him. Therefore, Ryan decided to sneak into the city in disguise, but he only changed the color of his skin and changed his clothes, so that the defenders of the city were completely unrecognizable, and he was regarded as an ordinary mercenary. This made Ryan have to sigh at the ordinariness of his appearance, and he couldn't cry or laugh.

The Magic Association in Kurt City does not have a magic teleportation array, and Ryan can't teleport directly from Glory City, besides, even if there is a magic teleportation array, Ryan won't use it, once he uses the magic teleportation array to teleport over, it will be easy to be discovered, thus losing the advantage of being in the shadows. So Ryan hurried slowly from the City of Glory.

For revenge, Rui Anzhong is not in a hurry at all, first, so many years have passed, and he doesn't care about waiting for a few more days. The second is that the Marquis of Kopache must be ready for battle, and Ryan waited for more than ten days to reach Kote City, and the opponent's defense must have dropped a lot. Chloe is in the light, Ryan is in the dark, wait a few more days, Ryan can afford to wait.

"It's time to go find the person arranged by the third prince." After a short day of shopping, Ryan had a general understanding of the situation in Kort City, and decided not to go any further. Previously, the third prince Mofen arranged some of his subordinates to help Ryan gather intelligence, so he made an appointment with Ryan for various contact methods.

Ryan has always been arrogant, and even if he feels that he is strong enough to achieve his goals, he has to rely on the information of intelligence officers. The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, not to mention that the other party is not a rabbit.

Soon, Ryan arrives at an agreed hotel and meets the intelligence agents under the third prince Mofen.

There are not many people arranged by the third prince to collect intelligence, only a few, and these people usually do not live in Coat, they all come from other places, so it stands to reason that it should be very difficult for them to collect intelligence. However, the Odoli Empire has some intelligence personnel in various cities of the empire who are not in the establishment, and with the power of the third prince Murfin, he can let these people help, so the intelligence officers arranged by the third prince Murphy can easily find out the information needed.

"My lord, we've found out where Chloe is." It was a middle-aged man who reported to Ryan, and he immediately handed Ryan a small notebook, "Chloe does not live in the Marquis's Mansion, but in a small manor behind the Marquis's Mansion. The small estate was so secluded that almost no one knew it was the property of the Marquis' Palace. If it weren't for our people following the people of the Marquis's Court, they would not have discovered this secret. ”

"What's the guard at that manor?" Ryan nodded, he guessed Marquis Kopacz's thoughts, the cunning rabbit three holes. When everyone thought that Kolo was in the Marquis's Palace, they didn't let Kolo hide in the Marquis's Palace, but hid in other places, so that anyone who wanted to find Kolo couldn't find it. In addition, this manor is not far behind the Marquis's Palace, and if something happens, the people of the Marquis's Mansion can support them as soon as possible.

This would have been a very good idea, but now that Ryan has found out about it, it has become a very big weakness.

"After our careful investigation, there is a level 7 swordsman and more than twenty swordsmen guarding that small manor." The middle-aged man paused, looked at Ryan, and then continued, "That level 7 sword master is Pefenla. ”

Obviously, while the middle-aged man is familiar with Colo's information, he also knows Ryan's information very well, and knows that Ryan was seriously injured by Pefenla back then, so he was just worried that Ryan would be angry when he heard Pefenla's name.

Ryan naturally didn't get angry, he chuckled and said, "It's better this way, solve it together, and don't have to separate to take revenge." (To be continued......) (Go read .)
