Zong Shen was among the crowd of people entering the city, and he didn't attract anyone's attention at all.

This is the charm of Dabangcheng. Even in the middle of the night, there is still a lot of traffic.

However, there are not many guys who seem to be fully armed like him wearing battle armor and helmets.

Especially when Zong Shen was alone, he looked like a lone wolf.

With this outfit and the identity of a lone wolf, others can infer that Zong Shen is either a powerful adventurer or a mercenary acting alone.

No matter which one it is, it represents three words, that is: "Don't mess with"!

Just like that, Zong Shen swaggered towards Bangcheng.

The Nords look a little rougher than the Avalons.

Men basically have thick eyebrows and big eyes, and women also have thick bones, especially the buttocks, which look good.

Along the way, you can see groups of cavalry patrolling back and forth on the road.

Dressing like Zong Shen, it was easy to attract the attention of the patrolling soldiers, and soon he found a squad of patrolling cavalrymen behind him, who seemed to be staring at him exclusively.

"It's not right."

"With such a large-scale city, there are definitely a lot of people going in and out every day."

"There must be many similar adventurers or mercenaries."

"Why are these Rangers staring at me?"

Zong Shen has some doubts in his heart. He does not have any family crest on his body and does not belong to the noble force.

A very common loner, these Rangers have no reason to stare at him!

However, although Zong Shen had doubts in his heart, he did not go into it.

Because he saw that these Rangers were just maintaining a vigilant attitude, like an insurance measure.

These Tier 3 Rangers could not pose any threat to him.

Not to mention that the cavalry of the Nord Kingdom is relatively weak among the human kingdoms.

With his current strength, even the fourth- and fifth-rank cavalry, as long as there are not many cavalry, he can easily solve it.

Thinking of this, he relaxed, whistled, and continued to follow the traveling merchants and villagers who entered the city unhurriedly.

The rangers behind him still kept a short distance.

In the city of Wentrobang, in the lord castle in the central area.

The local lord, Earl of Maren Babbitt, sat at the top of the conference hall.

Originally, the Earl had the opportunity to lead the giant city, but Wentrobang is very special. Its significance is no less than that of the giant city, because it is the southern tributary of the Liujin River, which is the last inland port of the Niwale River in the south. point.

After passing through here, the Nivare River will continue to enter the territory of Avalon south, and merge into other tributaries until it enters the sea.

Continue to go downstream, due to the change of terrain, it is difficult for the downstream fleet to go upstream.

During the period, there are many terrain drops, as well as large waterfalls and rift gaps.

So here is a very important node.

Its material circulation even exceeds that of some giant cities with special environments, such as Wolf Fang.

Just over an hour ago, Earl Mullen received urgent news from the Babbitt family!

King Ragnar was assassinated. The murderer was related to the Trevassin family. It is very likely that Queen Sandina personally sent someone to do it!

This news has been passed for a long time since the afternoon.

At present, the powerful nobles in the Nord Kingdom have all received news.

That includes the Babbitt family!

Under such circumstances, Earl Marlen knew the news even earlier than Marquis Sodor, the consul of Wolffang Castle, and there are many ways to transmit news in the continent.

Those big aristocrats often have a more efficient information transmission network.

As for those marginal nobles, there is no such convenient information.

The official step-by-step method of sending letters in the Nord Kingdom is still through blade-winged falcons, or magic pages.

Although magic crystals are easy to use, the number of communication crystals that each communication crystal tower can produce is limited, and it is difficult to cover every corner.

And most of the communication crystals are in the hands of the great nobles.

It is destined to form only a limited number of communication paths.

Therefore, although the news is explosive, and the Ragnar Kingdom has also issued a clear order.

But it will take at least a few days for it to be fully transmitted to all parts of the kingdom.

Earl Marron Babbitt planned to use this time difference to convene an internal meeting of the city first.

He urgently summoned the big and small nobles in the city of Wendrobang, the big businessmen who were resident here, and the managers of various departments.

Even several **** street leaders in Bangcheng called over.

Hundreds of people sat at the giant round table in the conference room, and the atmosphere seemed a little tense.

Just in case, new patrol orders have been issued.

Monitor all suspicious mercenaries, adventurers, and illegal armed men entering and leaving the city.

Babbitt is a large family that tends to be neutral.

As a member of the Babbitt family, Earl Mullen knew the meaning behind this incident.

He had to make sure the city of Wentrobang was safe and sound before the family made a decision.

At this time, it is necessary to be more vigilant, especially the Babbitt family knows that the people of the Trevassin family like to dispatch mercenaries to harass and infiltrate.

As for the Lord Broke royal family, there is no need to worry. As a royal family, they inherited the surname and blood of the first king, and they are an orthodox royal family in the Nord Kingdom.

As long as it is in the Nord Kingdom, no matter how remote the village or settlement is, everyone knows that the Lordbrock family is a royal family!

If it is ordered by the royal family in person, there will be a more formal process.

Of course, the Babbitt family is still on the sidelines.

From a rational point of view, they are more inclined to the Lord Broke royal family.

It's just that in these years, the Trevassin family has also been operating the family power in secret.

On the bright side, the giant cities directly or indirectly controlled by them have reached one-third of the total number of giant cities in the Nord Kingdom.

How many giant cities, how many state cities, and how many villages it controls is often an important criterion for measuring the power of a noble family.

From this point of view, the power of the Trevassin family should not be underestimated.

In addition, they also have close cooperative relations with many mercenary groups in the mainland.

How many forces have been cultivated in secret and how many giant cities have been infiltrated, no one can accurately say.

That's why Earl Marron Babbitt called all the heads of state in the city.

Want to hear their views.

It doesn't matter if the information is kept secret or not.

The way these people communicated cannot be much faster than the official information of the Nord Kingdom.

From the time King Ragnar ordered it, the matter could not be considered a secret.

Everyone in the conference room was chatting.

This time, the people who came here were all prominent figures in Bangcheng, and they were all people with flexible minds and a keen sense of interests.

They had already instinctively sensed something was wrong, so they were chatting.

And this time the summoning was very hasty, and Earl Mullen did not limit their discussion.

On the contrary, a red-robed butler next to Earl Mullen was whispering something to him. Occasionally, Earl Mullen would respond with a few words, and the discussion was more heated than they were.

It wasn't until everyone was almost there that the red-robed butler nodded again and again, got up and left.

"Quiet Please!"

Earl Mullen Babbitt raised his right hand.

After about two or three seconds, the conference hall fell completely silent.

This conference hall has a huge round table that can accommodate about seventy or eighty people.

But this time, it was clear that more than that number were present.

Many people moved chairs and sat on the side.

This made the whole conference room look a bit crowded!

"This time, I called everyone here late at night because I have to announce a very important news!"

"King Ragnar was assassinated yesterday!"

"It's in the area within the jurisdiction of the giant city of Wolf Tooth Castle!

"His Majesty the King escaped safely and is currently in Sharp Axe Castle."

"His Majesty has issued the king's decree and kingdom announcement to the three princes and the whole of Nord."

"Officially declare war on the Trevassin family, and ask all the forces under the Trevassin family to surrender to the nearest royal family, and hand over the traitor Sandina Trevassin!"

"What do you guys think about this?"

Earl Mullen looked around at everyone with his chin in front of his hands.

After he finished speaking, the scene suddenly fell silent...

This information is no less than a blockbuster for them!

"Trevasin..."

"Traitor, Sandina Trevassin..."

I don't know who muttered to himself first, and the entire conference hall became noisy again like a lit powder keg!

"Isn't Sandina the Queen?"

"Could it be that the assassination of His Majesty has something to do with the Trevassin family?"

"Otherwise, why would such a kingdom announcement be issued!"

A pot-bellied businessman analyzed loudly.

He is one of the top three big businessmen in the city of Wentrobon, and has a place on the docks.

There are at least tens of millions of dinars in his hand, and millions of dinars of materials and goods are circulating.

At this time, a big bald head with a scar on his face sitting on the other side sneered.

"According to my brother in the imperial city."

"Queen Sandina is a slutty figure, and she often meets the young captain of the guard in private."

"So there is no doubt that Queen Sandina must have planned the assassination!"

The one who spoke was the leader of the black street forces in Bangcheng, the leader of the severed finger.

Broken Finger is a large black street force that is distributed in many giant cities and state cities in the Nord Kingdom. As long as you can see "Severed Finger Bar", "Severed Finger Casino" and "Severed Finger Red" in the slums. A place like a mill is the industry of severed fingers.

As a black street force, in addition to these gray industries, it also comes with being a mercenary and inquiring about news from various places.

So in a way, the black street forces do know a lot of gossip.

Nine out of ten of these gossips come from rumors and hearsay, and only half of the remaining 10% is true news, and half of it is half-truth and half-false news.

To add a severed finger, a knuckle of the **** must be cut off.

This will not interfere with grasping the weapon, and it can also serve as a special representative symbol.

His words were quite naked. Now, after comparing it with the news of Earl Mullen, you can see that what he said should be true.

This guy's voice is very loud, which naturally attracted the attention of Earl Mullen.

"Sasen, do you still know any news?"

"Might as well say it and let everyone discuss."

"This is the key to our ability to weather the storm."

"The kingdom's civil war is imminent."

"The Trevassin family has been dormant for many years before they are in this situation. They will never surrender to the royal family easily. As for handing over Queen Sandina, it is even more impossible."

"According to the secret news from my family, Queen Sandina has long become the actual controller of the Trivassin family. The development of the Trivassin family in these years cannot be separated from her help and planning!"

"And as a neutral state city, what should we do next? It's about everyone's interests!"

The Earl of Mullen said loudly.

Everyone present can be said to be part of the interest group in Wentrobang City.

Hearing what he said, the leader of Heijie's severed fingers in Wentrobang City, the bald head named Sassen cleared his throat.

As the black street leader in Bangcheng, Sa Sen usually does shady deeds.

He is even more rebellious, and has the strength of a fifth-order warrior, which allows him to ignore ordinary small nobles.

But this time it was the Earl of Mullen, the Babbitt who asked him what to say!

It is also the consul of Wentro State City. Due to the large scale here, the State Army under Earl Mullen is also powerful!

Sassen got up quickly and sorted out some of the news he knew.

"Cough cough!"

"Since Mr. Mullen has spoken, then I will tell you the information about the severed finger in this regard."

"The last piece of information was several months ago."

"When Queen Sandina sent someone to settle in Qiusui City."

"At that time, the dark streets of the imperial city of Sageson heard some rumors."

"It is said that Queen Sandina had a plan as early as ten years ago!"

"And King Ragnar actually knew about Queen Sandina's infidelity, but His Majesty the King has never pierced his face."

"It is said to be related to an ancient legend!"

"But what the specific legend is, I don't know."

"There is no doubt that this assassination was planned by the Kingdom of Sandina!"

"But if you insist on standing in the Trevassin family and the royal family, Severed Finger will choose the royal family."

Sassen told the relevant information that he knew.

Of course, some information was also concealed.

Information about severed fingers is never free.

As long as he comes to a conclusion and shows his attitude, Earl Mullen will naturally have plans.

After he finished speaking, Sa Sen sat down, still sitting in a condescending posture.

Decades of lazy habit can't be changed so easily!

After listening to his words, Earl Mullen nodded.

The others were all talking more excitedly.

"Lord Mullen, I think we should rely on the royal family!"

"At least the fortresses on the southern border of the border are basically under the control of the royal family."

"The same is true for the giant city of Wolf Fang!"

"As far as I know, the Trivassin family's power is mainly in the central and eastern parts of the kingdom."

At this time, a Viscount named Mackintosh Ryan took the initiative to stand up and said to Earl Mullen.

The Ryan family to which he belongs is a firm royal faction.

And he is also one of the more ambitious of the younger generation of nobles in the Ryan family.

It has only come to Wentrobang City to develop in recent years.

His words are still relevant.

However, Earl Mullen did not immediately express his position, but just nodded to him, indicating that he understood.

After these two rounds of speeches, everyone's willingness to discuss was completely released.

Everyone is expressing their own opinions, saying all the news that they have heard, and attaching their own opinions at the same time!

Earl Mullen did not speak again, but listened quietly.

He is only in his 40s this year. He is able to hold the title of Earl and take charge of the city of Wentrow. In addition to the power and game of the Babbitt family, there are also factors of his own ability.

Compared with the rulers of other state cities, he is a more capable noble.

It can even meet the ruling requirements of the giant city.

In fact, his ideal is to develop Wentrobang into a giant city.

This goal is a long way to go, and once achieved, it may take generations.

But as long as it succeeds, Maren Babbitt's name will be celebrated.

The creator of the new giant city is an infinite honor!

He listened silently, and he actually had a bold plan in his heart!

The civil war in the kingdom is about to start, and the chaotic times often give birth to opportunities for expansion and development!

It's just that he hasn't made up his mind yet, he still has to think about it!

Outside Bangcheng, after nearly an hour of walking, UU read www.uukanshu. Com Zongshen finally came to the fortress level set up by Bangcheng on this business road.

The Eye of Cthulhu is still more than four hours away from Zong Shen. He can stay in the city for at least three hours. Taking advantage of this time, he plans to stroll around, and then go to the pier and the market to have a look.

The city of Wentrobang is not small, maybe he needs to buy a horse temporarily to travel in the city.

However, when he came to the entrance to the city, he received a wave of cross-examination.

The team of rangers who followed behind immediately surrounded them, and the Nord Berserker Warriors and some mages and archers who were on duty nearby also stared at it.

The leading cavalry squad leader and the berserk axe warrior on duty led Zong Shen aside and began to inquire.

The origin and purpose were inquired separately.

Zong Shen had already prepared a set of speeches.

"I am an adventurer, from the green cypress forest."

"Get ready to go to the city to rest."

These berserkers stared at the armor and battle helmet on his body, still a little suspicious.

On the way here, he had already inquired about the strategy module, and learned that Earl Mullen of Bangcheng was summoning prominent figures in Bangcheng to decide which side the city of Wentro would fall to.

The alert at this time is related to that incident.

Not only Zong Shen alone, but almost all the mercenaries and adventurers were questioned.

Hearing him say that, the Ranger Squad Leader and the Berserker Squad looked at each other.

Believe it or not is secondary, they want to do more than cross-examination.

Zong Shen could see greed in their eyes.

In order to avoid trouble, he put his hand into the gap between the waist of the armor, and pretended to take out a small handful of dinars and put it in one of the hands!

Most of these dinars are in small denominations, which seem to be a lot, but the total is only two or three hundred dinars!
