The undercurrent of the Grant Kingdom, King Roger is naturally clear.

Although he wears a crown and occupies a high throne, he also participated in the ambush of Yelena twenty years ago.

It was with Roger as bait that the Duke of Breynner inflicted heavy damage on this opponent.

The Grant family has fought with Yelena for more than a hundred years, and has an immortal body for Yelena, and the family leaders also know it.

After nearly twenty years, the upper echelons of the Grant Kingdom knew in their hearts that Yelena's injuries had probably recovered.

Elena is a legendary magician, not only her own combat power is strong, but to a certain extent, she can affect the outcome of a battle, and the most troublesome thing is that the Venus family is still hiding in the shadows, constantly infiltrating the interior of the Grant Kingdom.

For the infiltration of the Venus family, the Roger Kingdom did not have any good way.

Venus is a thousand-year-old family, not only with legendary magicians hiding in the shadows, but also with many outstanding talents in the Venus family. The power of this family is scattered in several nearby kingdoms, and in the two kingdoms of Delong and Maya, there are great nobles of Venus blood.

Even some of the hereditary nobles within the Kingdom of Grant were placed by the Venus family. The last rebellion was nothing more than the exposure of Gascoigne's pawns. In other provinces, the Venus family still hides a small number of nobles that have not been exposed.

Hundreds of years ago, the Kingdom of Grant was able to find out the hidden hands of the Venus family from the blood of the knights. But by now, the bloodline of the knights of the Venus family has been very confused, and it is useless to look up from the bloodline.

Moreover, the Venus family also used the warrior profession to infiltrate the Grant Kingdom through roundabout means. Although the Grant Mage Guild uses Shingrum, there are legendary magicians hiding behind it, blessing a few brain-clear, mind-closing spells, and Shingon is also useless.

This kind of infiltration method is difficult to guard, and although the royal intelligence department is not a wine bag and rice bag, it can only grasp a general suspicion target, which includes dozens of hereditary nobles.

Viscount Gauss of the Venus family is on this list of suspicions, but there is no definite information, and Nolan's headquarters is not suitable for casual action.

Even if it is a royal family, there is no reason to punish a hereditary nobleman casually.

At Nolan's court, King Roger is holding a secret meeting with important members of the Grant family.

Participating in the meeting were Roger, Philip, Pansy, York, Heaton, and Feeney. These six people are all ninth-order professionals, and they are also important figures in the Grant family.

The strongest of the six is Philip, the eldest prince of the previous generation is also a dual cultivator of magic and martial arts like Richard, and now he is a ninth-order epic knight and a ninth-order priest, and his combat power is better than that of the legendary knight. Although it is not as weird and fierce as Yelena, it is also difficult to deal with.

It's a pity that because of the grievances of the previous generation, Philip is now devoted to the church and is not keen to participate in the affairs of the Grant family. He attended the secret council on behalf of the Church of Dawn.

Philip is already the number two person in the Grant Diocese of the Dawn Church, and he also wrote a letter to the headquarters of the Dawn Church some time ago, asking for the transfer from the Grant Diocese.

Judging from this letter, it is clear that the affairs of the Grant family cannot be counted on by Philip.

Although Philip's strength is no less than that of the legendary knight, this person does not have much sense of identity with the Grant family, and will not easily help the Grant family in the actual struggle.

Second only to Philip is Pansy, who is also a nine-ring magician, who has been away from the Kingdom of Grant for ten years and traveled to the Magic Kingdom of Makholm, hoping to find a chance to become a legend.

After entering the Magic Kingdom of Markholm, Pansy got some opportunities and found a treasure to increase his mental power, and now that Pansy's spiritual power has exceeded forty points, he is not as bold as Evans and rashly breaks through the legendary realm.

After Pansy left, Evans has been in charge of the Grant Mage Guild for the last few years.

Now that Evans has failed to break through the legend, the Roger Kingdom can only urgently write to Pansy, hoping that Pansy will return as soon as possible. After receiving an urgent letter from Roger's Kingdom, Pansy hurried and returned to Nolan for half a year.

Roger, York, Heaton, and Finney are all ninth-order knights, and Roger and York have been promoted to the ninth-order for more than twenty years.

Both of them are big nobles who hold actual power, and they will not take risks easily, precisely because they have not had the courage to break through in the past twenty years, the probability of the two being promoted to the legend is not high, but it is Heaton and Feeney, who have been promoted in recent years, that have a greater probability of success.

But Heaton and Finney are both distant branches of the Grant family, and once one of the two becomes a legend, it will completely change the situation of the Grant family.

The Grant family has been inherited for thousands of years, has experienced countless internal struggles, and the family's line of power has also undergone many changes.

If the Yuanzhi is promoted to a legend, it is possible that a small sect will replace a large sect, which is also a very big challenge to the Roger Kingdom.

Roger's kingdom was better when he was there, but once Roger's kingdom died, his sons couldn't hold the situation at all. Even if there is no civil war, they will become puppets, just like King Charles of the previous generation.

For King Roger, the best option was to promote himself to the legend, and although the situation forced him to summon up the courage and plan to take risks, the other important members of the Grant family did not agree to Roger's conditions at all.

Pansy, York, and the others all support Heaton's use of eukaryotic potions, which makes it more likely to be promoted to a legend.

In the face of public opposition, King Roger had no choice but to propose another exchange.

The Kingdom of Roger requested that the Southern Territories be taken out separately and divided into a dukedom and given to the Grand Prince Ferdinand in recognition of his contributions to the Grant family over the years.

In addition, after Heaton is promoted to legend, he has to support the Grant Kingdom in waging a war to seize the area north of the Mara River and east of the Gut River in the United Kingdom on the east coast, and level the battle line. The more than 100,000 square kilometers of land seized, the royal family's share will be given to Heaton, Feeney and other backbone of the Grant family.

Dividing the crown from the crown would expand the influence of the Grant family, but it would be a distraction to the central power. Dividing the two dukedoms, even if the Grant family gains momentum at the Council of Nobles, will also weaken the power of the royal court.

Such a decision is a mixed pros and cons for the Grant family. Based on past experience, the great nobles divided the land, and it was easy to fight a civil war when they fought for inheritance.

But King Roger is now lacking in confidence and has the heart to leave a way back for his children and grandchildren.

He saw the political struggles in the early years, and his father's tragic ending also required him to do so.

The total territory of the Grant family in the south is about 360,000 square kilometers, which is equivalent to a grand dukedom if divided. Such a powerful duke is a threat to the kingdom of Grant. Several key members of the Grant family, after careful consideration, disagreed with Roger's proposal.

After sitting on the throne for twenty years and winning many foreign wars, the prestige of Roger's kingdom has reached its peak, especially at the bottom, in the middle, and now it is even more prosperous.

If he had made up his mind and promoted to the rank of Legendary Warrior, the Grant family would have become his cousin, just like the Duke of Brenner twenty years ago.

It's a pity that after Roger sat on the throne, he had become afraid of death and did not dare to take risks, and his personal strength could not suppress the important members of the Grant family. Many things can only be discussed with the below, otherwise the Grant family will first break out into civil strife, without the support of Pansy, York, Heaton and others, Roger alone will not be able to suppress the following.

In the end, everyone bargained for most of the day, and divided the provinces of Steven, Salon, Isaac, Helen, Novena, and Kampa into the direct jurisdiction of the Nolan royal family.

Ferdinand and seven other provinces formed a dukedom, which was given to Ferdinand, the eldest son of King Roger, when the situation stabilized. This duke covers an area of more than 200,000 square kilometers, and its land and resources are stronger than those of the Duke of York.

The other people didn't want to agree to Roger's condition, but Roger had a high prestige and great credit for twenty years, and they didn't dare to easily turn against Roger.

In today's situation, Roger's interests are obviously different from those of the Grant family, and in the choice of different interests, Roger chose himself.

Such a choice, although not far-sighted, adds an insurance policy to one's offspring.

After the Grant family deliberated, they decided to let Roger attract the attention of the Venus family on the surface, and secretly support Heaton's breakthrough to the legend.

The Grant family's strategy confused Elena to a certain extent.

The Venus family believes that the probability of Roger's promotion is not high, and is ready to wait for Roger's death to provoke a civil war, taking advantage of the civil unrest to develop.

Unexpectedly, Roger suppressed the suspicion in his heart and personally covered for Heaton.

The Grant family is united and ready to weather the storm together.

In this way, the time slowly came to November 3279 of the Dawn calendar, and Heaton drank the legendary eukaryotic potion and successfully promoted to legendary.

Twenty years after the death of Duke Burner, the Grant family finally has a new legendary knight. After Heaton's promotion, the pressure on Roger's kingdom finally eased a bit.

After hearing that Heaton was promoted to legend, Elena's face became extremely embarrassed.

Although the Venus family was the previous owner of this land, Yelena also ushered in a leap forward after becoming a legend. But it is also extremely difficult to restore the throne and wear the crown.

Although Elena has been promoted to legend, she is not the most powerful professional in the kingdom of Grant.

On the surface, the most powerful profession in the Grant Kingdom is Senna, the archbishop of the Grant diocese of the Dawn Church, and Senna has been promoted to the second rank of legend more than ten years ago.

Although Elena was promoted to the legend earlier, and in the early years, she also got the fragment of the artifact, signed a life-sharing contract with the legendary lich, and became an immortal, but in terms of magic, she was even worse than Senna. The promotion of the legend has not been able to find a way forward for a hundred years, and now it is still a legend of the first order.

Senna is only the number one master on the surface, in fact, the strongest combat power in the Grant Kingdom region is the aberration of the fusion of Princess Offalan and the remnants of the undead Lord, if Richard lets go of his hands and feet, his strength is also much stronger than Senna, and he should be able to compete with Princess Offaland.

The reason why Princess Offaland was so good at talking back then was not only because Senna was powerful and couldn't provoke the powerful divine power in Richard, but also because it was very important.

Princess Offaland is hidden in the mausoleum, and Richard is also unable to let go of his hands and feet to fight desperately with the enemy because of special circumstances, but he has a starlight necklace in his hand, even if he does not let go of the power advancement of the God of Killing, it is also a great threat to Yelena.

The Venus family has a long way to go if they want to reclaim the crown.

First of all, it is necessary to obtain the acquiescence of the Dawn Church, so that the church power does not interfere in the civil war, in addition, it is necessary to win the support of Harland and other nobles, and finally defeat the Grant family, and meet three conditions to control the situation.

Twenty years ago, the Venus family couldn't do any of them. Twenty years later, they can't do anything either.

The Venus family's plan is nothing more than to control the central power of the Grant royal family by provoking civil strife, forming a situation where the Son of Heaven is coerced to order the princes, controlling the central royal court of the Grant Kingdom, and slowly negotiating terms with the great nobles and the Dawn Church. In fact, it is just a conspiracy and cannot be put on the table.

Moreover, in the process of controlling the central power of the Grant royal family, there will also be many difficulties. After all, the Royal Praetorian Guard is based on members of the Grant family, and it is impossible for them to accept the leadership of outsiders.

If the Venus family wants to take control of the central power, they need to get rid of the hidden danger of the royal guard.

Twenty years ago, they hoped to use the border army of the Wild Lion Legion to replace the royal guard to control the situation, and the conspiracy twenty years later is estimated to be the same.

Soon after Heaton's promotion, Elena became angry and sent several masters of the Venus family to Nolan, wanting to assassinate Roger's kingdom and forcibly create civil strife in the kingdom of Grant.

King Roger's guards are extremely strong, and he is protected by a personal guard of three hundred people all year round, these people are all professionals, as well as knights and magicians to cooperate in the battle, and they can easily get the support of the mage tower and the Praetorian Guard, even if the two legendary professionals of the Venus family make a move, there is no way to kill Roger.

On the contrary, in this assassination battle, the Venus family killed Harden Cavaliers, and Anthony also lost an arm and lost his backbone.

If the assassination is unsuccessful, the Venus family will naturally not sit idly by. Seeing that there was no hope of recovering the country, Elena made up her mind to prepare to pull foreign aid regardless of the cost, and she personally came forward and contacted the legendary magician Mallo of the Scarlet Horn, preparing to cooperate with the cultists and definitely provoke a civil war in the kingdom of Grant.

Although the Scarlet Horn is a cult, the power it wields is not weak at all, this cult believes in the god of killing, and has six legendary professionals, and its strength is extraordinary.

The Night Stalker Mallow is a legendary magician, the third person of the Scarlet Horn, in charge of the three dioceses of Grant, East Coast, and Delong, which is very difficult.

Back then, this person provoked a rebellion in the Grant Kingdom, and was severely injured by the legendary second-order priest of the Dawn Church, Marvila.

In the past twenty years, Mallo has been hiding in the East Coast and Delong, and has some secret collusion with underground forces such as the Venus family.

In recent years, the Scarlet Horn has been secretly developing believers, like a rat hidden in the dark, killing endlessly.

Elena and Mallow teamed up, and the Scarlet Horn cultists caused a riot, which immediately caused war in the kingdom of Grant.

Seeing that civil strife broke out in the Kingdom of Grant, the three kingdoms of East Coast, Delong, and Ryan were like wild dogs that smelled blood, and provoked a big war together.

The East Coast and Delong had just entered the war, and the Blood Horn was also stirring up civil strife within the two countries. For a cult like Scarlet Horn, the more people die, the stronger the power of the killing artifact, and the easier it is for the killing god to recover.

More than 20 years ago, the chess pieces secretly arranged by the Scarlet Horn were cleaned up by the Grant Kingdom and the Dawn Church, although the Scarlet Horn re-proselytized and arranged the shadows, after all, the strength was not strong, and the scale of the rebellion provoked was not very large. On the contrary, it is Delong and the East Coast, and Mallo has been operating for many years and has a stronger power.

In the year 3280 of the Dawn Calendar, the eastern kingdoms were already in chaos.
