An earl, dressed in a sumptuous costume with gold edges, sat quietly in a carriage.

His hands clenched the delicate black cane in his hand, and he looked out the window with a deep gaze.

The carriage made a deep creaking sound as it sailed through the rough streets.

The car swayed, but the count seemed to be completely accustomed to the bumpy road.

Through the car window, he looked behind him.

Behind him was a convoy of carriages pulling the other ministers of the empire.

Surrounded by a group of imperial knights, riding white horses, surrounded by the carriage.

The knights were dressed in silver armor, and their expressions were as frozen as ice, very majestic.

The figure leading a group of knights at the front, riding on a white horse, silver hair fluttering.

The grim intimidation that emanated from her gave goosebumps down the count's back.

This knight who looks like an ice sculpture is the fiancée of Councillor Clavenna, Gwen Delin, right?

It is said that this knight also has top quality.

In the descriptions of those foreign ministers, she even had the power of the heavens, and was even able to communicate with the gods and use the power of the gods.

This is ridiculous for an Imperial knight, as the Empire is a country that does not allow any belief in gods.

But even so, he was able to become a count in the Carencian Empire at such a young age.

The strength of the other party will definitely not be weak.

Earl Laurien was eager to have a fight with the Gwen Grand Knight, who was also an Earl, trying to test the level of this young Imperial Grand Knight, but ......

He came back to his senses and looked at the man sitting across from him.

The man was dressed in a black trench coat with the iconic badge with three broken heads on his chest.

His expression was cold, even colder than Gwen outside.

At this point, he just quietly clasped his hands together and placed them on his lap.

But that cold look always made Count Laurien feel a shudder.

That's right, this is the rumored Congressman Victor Kravinner.

And he sat in the same carriage as himself.

Obviously, it looks like there are flaws all over his body, but the strong sense of oppression that can emanate from him is constantly surrounding the carriage.

He remembers, just now.

When the Victor MP got off the train.

He just reached out and grasped the broken magic train slightly.

Suddenly, the train, which could still be seen in a few shapes, was gradually squeezed by his powerful magic.

Finally, the train carriage that was originally able to accommodate more than 100 people.

Grabbed by him, squeezed into a square piece of scrap metal, sitting safely in the corner of the station.

As soon as he got out of the car, he skillfully demonstrated his strength to the people of the kingdom.

That may be a kind of disadvantage.

But Earl Laurion really ate it.

After all, when they arrived here, the ministers had already said it.

The gorge of Nangaburna, half of which was blown up.

In the eyes of everyone, this is almost a very impossible thing.

Nanjia Brna Gorge is a towering valley that separates the two countries.

His presence forced the Kingdom and the Empire, two huge neighbors, to peace.

After all, it's fine if it's just a simple mutual visit.

All you need to do is pass the magic train, and you can quickly travel back and forth between two neighboring countries from the sky above the valley.

However, if one country really wants to go to war against the other.

They had to go around this huge valley and take a very long detour.

In this way, the journey will be a great trouble.

Grain and grass are too late to be transported, and they are even more disadvantaged in a long-term and protracted war.

On the other hand, if the attacking side loses some troops, it is even difficult to call for support.

So much so that once these two countries go to war, then no matter who fights whom.

As long as you are on the defensive side, you will definitely have a huge advantage.

After all, the whole canyon isolates the whole country, and the support is too slow and too slow.

And the kingdom has also proved the strategic importance of this valley with the lesson of blood.

Their harassment and encroachment on the borders of the Empire ended in failure.

That was a long time ago, and the empire was nowhere near as powerful as it is now.

But how many miles does the valley crack cover?

Is it possible to blow that piece up with just one spell?

Possible.

For this councillor Kravenna, it is an absolute possibility.

He had naturally seen the earth-shattering naval battle spread by the Mage Council.

At that moment, the name Victor Kravenna had long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and made countless people in the world well-known.

Internationally, he has a very obvious position.

And he himself......

Laurien Nice.

It's just a three-star earl.

In terms of age and seniority, it may be that he did live a little longer than Victor.

But on strength.

I'm afraid that ten of him can't stand up to Victor alone.

There's no need to have a fight with Victor's fiancée because you want to have a fight.

If it really did, Victor's side would not be the first to go.

But if you lose, you will lose the face of the entire Kante Kingdom.

is also a count, the count of the Kingdom of Kante can't beat the young knights of the empire.

It's a joke to say.

All in all, neither side is pleasing either.

Laurion took a deep breath, then looked at Aurelian, who was sitting next to Victor.

He said kindly to Aurelian:

"Your Highness, you are still welcome to come from afar."

"It's getting late, I've prepared a place for you first, and we'll leave for the royal city tomorrow."

Aurelianne nodded lightly and replied politely:

"Thank you Earl Laurion for your thoughtful arrangements."

Amid the sound of horses' hooves and wheels crushing over the gravel, the wagon drove steadily out of the city and down a rugged field path.

The surrounding land was bent by heavy rice and ears of wheat, yellow waves of wheat danced in the wind, and green rice leaves nodded calmly as if to welcome them.

The Count turned his head to look at Victor and Aurelian, who were still looking at the surrounding scenery, and introduced with a smile, "Welcome to my territory, Surban. "

This is the domain of Count Laurean.

This rural village with a thriving agricultural development, along with the cities it had passed through, was the domain of the Earl of Laurien.

Magic trains coming in from abroad will only travel to this station in the city.

Here, the Count of Laurean took on the task of receiving foreign guests.

Aurelian replied to the Count with a polite smile and a slight nod,

She understood that the realm symbolized the Count's influence and power.

All visitors from abroad are constantly watched by the owner of the territory.

This is almost impossible in the Empire.

At this time, Aurelian turned her head and looked at the dense crops, and saw the wheat fields that had been divided.

On each piece of land there was an erected pillar with a golden ear of wheat hanging from the top.

Seeing this, Aurelian couldn't help but ask the Count curiously:

"Why is there an ear of wheat hanging in the field?"

Before Count Laurion could speak, Victor explained lightly to Aurelian.

"It is the ear of wheat that represents the goddess of abundance."

Count Laurien was slightly stunned, then smiled and said to Victor:

"Mr. Councillor is really knowledgeable, and indeed, there are many differences between our kingdom and your empire."

"The biggest difference is—"

"We believe in the existence of the gods."

Their beliefs are not complicated doctrines, but only knowledge of the gods that once existed.

And to perform simple ceremonies on time and offer tributes as a way to seek some comfort.

Ears of wheat hang from the pillars, symbolizing the harvest of crops.

Although there are times when the grain is not harvested due to weather and other reasons, the commoners of the kingdom still choose to believe in the existence of the gods.

It is a shallow faith, and at the same time a belief that goes deep into the heart.

But again, there are many denominations of gods in the kingdom.

For this, the kingdom is not, like the empire, forbids the emergence of sects within the state.

Some lords even need these sects to stabilize their territory.

Laurien, for example, has been doing this all the time.

"It is said that in the sect of the goddess of fertility, there are ears of wheat that truly have the blessings of the gods."

Count Laurion spoke:

"The cultists will make a portion of the ears of wheat with divine powers, and if the nobles have access to them, their realms will have a good harvest in the fall."

"However, after all, this is an item with divine powers, and even the sect of the Goddess of Fertility may not be able to produce ten ears of wheat in a year."

Speaking of this, Count Laurien's chest was slightly erected, and the strength of his cane increased, full of pride and pride.

Aurelian also understood, and looked at the somewhat proud Count Laurien, she cleared her throat and said cooperatively:

"That is, you have those sacred ears of wheat?"

Aurelian was surprised when she said this.

"No wonder, Count Laurean, your fields here are fertile."

Hearing Aurelian's words, Count Laurian was in a good mood.

He smiled softly and looked at the abundant fields around him, with uncontrollable pride in his eyes.

"Thank you, Goddess of Fertility."

"Bring us a good harvest every year."

At this moment, Vega, who was on Victor's shoulder, suddenly opened his one eye.

It craned its neck, lowered its voice in Victor's ear, and said in a voice that only Victor could hear:

"What this man said is true, there is indeed some power to promote growth in the fields."

"Tsk, even the goddess of justice will leave a Libra with her divine power, so how many interesting things did the remaining gods leave behind after leaving the present world?"

Speaking of this, Vega shook the feathers all over her body, and her originally hoarse voice became a little trembling.

I don't know if it's because of excitement or something else.

It narrowed its eyes, and a sharp voice sounded slowly:

"I want to have them all."

"One by one, it's polluted."
