Chapter 61: Intense
"Is the message accurate?"
In the quiet room, Chen Heng looked at the servant in front of him and asked softly.
It wasn't until he got an accurate answer that he nodded and let him go down to rest.
After returning to Baron Kaysen's territory from the city of Kutu, more than four months had passed before I knew it.
For more than four months, Chen Heng has been busy in various places, and he has initially opened up the situation here.
And during this time, the city of Kutu is also very lively.
According to the news channel on Chen Heng's side, in the past few months, the second prince of Kutu Kingdom, His Royal Highness Gris has also returned to Kutu City.
Unlike the Oliman sisters, Her Highness Gris had a natural affinity with her neighbors because her mother was a princess from a foreign land.
A few years earlier, when King Qutu had become unconscious, the prince had left the kingdom of Kutu and went to the kingdom of Olis, where his mother had come from.
With the help of his mother's identity and the power he had brought from the country of Coutu before, the prince of Gris developed very well there, and even in the country of Coutu, there are many supporters.
After all, for King Kutu, this was his only son.
For many traditional aristocrats, it was better to choose a prince to be the future king than to choose a woman.
In the past, the prince of Gris had been in the kingdom of Ollis, and soon returned.
But this time, he came back uncharacteristically, and even stayed in the city of Kutu for more than two months.
For more than two months, there seemed to be several turmoil in the city of Kutu.
As for the specific changes, Chen Heng is not among them, so he can't know, but he can also infer some traces from some clues.
In just a few months, it is said that the followers who supported Princess Oliman and Prince Gris fought each other in the city of Kutu, and even knightly battles have occurred several times.
The danger in this, ordinary people are slightly involved in it, I am afraid it is a fatal thing.
But now, Prince Gris has left, and the battle in Kutu City should have come to an end.
Sitting on the chair, all kinds of thoughts flashed in Chen Heng's heart, and then he made a decision silently.
After being in the South for so long, here with Baron Casen, he has basically done what he should have done.
The trade has basically begun, and the various lords in the vicinity have basically accepted the agreement, and it will not be of much use for Chen Heng himself to continue to stay here.
It's time to get out of here and get back to Kutu.
The South, though warm and less risky, is not the center of the country after all.
Chen Heng can get benefits and support from here, but if he wants to go further, he has to go to Kutu City after all.
Therefore, after settling in Baron Kaisen's territory for a while, Chen Heng set off again and headed towards Kutu City.
It wasn't long before he returned to the city of Kutu and to his lodgings.
As soon as he returned, he began to visit his former friends.
"Kailin, you're finally back. ”
Looking at Chen Heng, who came to visit, Kaili showed a surprised expression on his face, and hurriedly pulled him in.
"What have you been doing for months?"
He looked at Chen Heng and asked.
"What else could it be?"
Chen Heng smiled: "It's nothing more than some trivial things, there's nothing to say." ”
"You, on the other hand, seem to be a lot more tired lately. ”
He looked at Carey in front of him and spoke softly.
Compared to a few months ago, at this moment, Carey's face was visibly tired, and there were more dark circles under his eyes, and it looked like he hadn't rested for a long time.
"Don't mention it. ”
Kaili had a wry smile on his face, sighed deeply, and then explained to Chen Heng.
"Someone lurking on your manor?"
Listening to Kaili's story, Chen Heng couldn't help frowning: "Those assassins before?"
"Yes. ”
Carey smiled wryly and nodded: "The same assassins from before, it seems that they are from the Duchy of Ollis, and they have been lurking around my residence before, so that I can't get a good night's sleep at all." ”
"Duchy of Ollis......."
Chen Heng frowned: "Do you know who instructed it?"
Carey smiled wryly and didn't reply.
wants to assassinate him, and he is from the Duchy of Olis, who else can do this?
Most likely, it was His Royal Highness Gris.
The family behind Carey is one of Princess Oliman's staunchest supporters.
It would not be surprising that Prince Gris had sent out assassins with the intention of fighting Princess Oliman.
Next, Carey told Chen Heng about what had happened recently.
"Did there really be a duel?"
Listening to his story, Chen Heng was a little surprised.
"Yes. ”
Carey nodded: "The two people in the duel are both knights, and one of them you still know, is Knight Maidel." ”
"Under the arrangement of Princess Oliman and His Royal Highness Gris, he has a public duel with another knight......"
"The result?"
Chen Heng raised his head and asked.
Carey was silent for a moment, then spoke: "The knight sent by His Highness Gris was killed by Knight Maddell, and Knight Maddell also burned his life, and his hand was cut off, and now he can't move......"
"If nothing else, even if he recovers after that, he will no longer have the strength he had before....."
Chen Heng was silent for a while.
Burning Life, a state that the Knight obtains after activating the Life Seed, will cause his body to be permanently destroyed if it explodes too violently.
Judging from the situation described by Carey, the scene must have been very violent, and the degree of maddel's burning was probably terrifying, and it would be impossible to recover for the rest of his life.
That alone was terrible, not to mention that he had a hand cut off.
As Carey said, even if he can continue to fight, he will no longer have the strength he used to have.
Thinking of this, Chen Heng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and at the same time felt very glad about his previous decision.
The previous situation in Kutu City was so terrifying that even the knights died and disappeared at once.
If Chen Heng had stayed in the city before, he was afraid that if he was not careful, he would have to face danger.
In this regard, his choice to leave Kutu and briefly avoid the fierce situation here is undoubtedly the right choice.
"Knight Maidel, where is it now?"
All kinds of thoughts flashed in his heart, and after a while, Chen Heng calmed down, looked at Kaili in front of him and continued to speak, and asked: "Anyway, this is also a knight worthy of respect, if I can, I hope to be able to go and visit." ”
