Medieval Aurora: The Rise of the Dragon

Chapter 30 Castle District

A journey of a seeker, in this abandoned land, an uninvited guest is staggering on this lonely wasteland.

A strange insect with huge front pincers was frantically looking for a cover to hide in.

Behind it, a crutch was moving up and down unhurriedly.

It was a crutch that was as fragile as an ordinary tree branch, but it firmly supported the hard and corrupt soil of the chaotic wasteland again and again.

The wind of the wasteland is mixed with evil whispers, unknown obstacles, and the corruption of chaotic magic, everything except warmth. The gray cloak is lifted by the intermittent wind, revealing a pair of eyes that have lost their pupils and light.

The advisor pulled the hood back and tightened the robe on his body again. The thick silver book was only hung at his waist by a simple belt, swaying with his steps.

"The Thousand-Eyed Fortress has disappeared from the mortal world. Is Carlos, the Great Devil of Tzeentch, powerless to resist or has other tricks." He kept walking, thinking about the meaning of this revelation as he walked forward.

"On the Great Eastern Plains, the advance of the Cathay army has been unimpeded. However, the problem remains that in this expedition across the entire continent, the biggest enemy of the Eastern Army is still the harsh and long journey itself.

I must hurry to find the Cathayans before they drift south. "

He muttered to himself, his eyes that lost vision did not see the abnormality in his waist.

The canon seemed to be blown by the wind, and purple brilliance was faintly revealed in the slightly opened gaps of the book. A continuously rotating, unpredictable pattern of teleportation rifts was quietly lying on the left page of the book.

------------

A keeper of secrets, a favorite of Slaanesh who was advanced by some kind of high-level demon.

An ever-changing demon king who was seriously injured, I don't know what his name is.

Just these two names are enough to make anyone who understands the meaning feel terrified.

These are the great demons under the command of the Four Gods of Chaos, the eternal enemies of the orderly world. Lin Qi couldn't describe their horror with accurate words, but he still remembered how he swallowed the bitter fruit of defeat in front of those huge beaks.

During this trip to Bretonnia, Lin Qi is very satisfied with what he has gained. Knowing the whereabouts of a changeable demon is the key to defeating it. This treacherous and cunning demon is best at hiding behind the scenes and planning it. That evil and dangerous conspiracy.

The Bretonnian knight from Leonese personally said that the goddess of the lake had marked the monster. Lin Qi recognized Harlan's single-mindedness and honesty,
The premise is that the mark of the goddess of the lake is indeed reliable.

But now he can only count on this expedition knight to be worthy of his name, and he still has things to solve.

Lin Qi was walking slowly along the uphill road to the upper floor of Erengrad.

The Castle District is the highest area of ​​Orengrad. Even standing on the streets of the Castle District, you can easily overlook one-third of Orengrad City.

When the Boyers still ruled the entire region, this was the center of the city government, but now Erengrad has completely become the confinement of the female czar, and the ambitious Katerin will never allow The most important outlet to the sea is actually controlled by a group of nobles themselves.

But the castle area is still the private land of the Boyers, and even officials appointed by the Queen herself cannot enter it without invitation.

Lin Qi was forced to stop at the intersection from the upper city to the castle area, and the entire road had been tightly fenced off.

There are a large number of soldiers patrolling all around, and the batches are dense. The neat and new bust and the strong body under the armor all prove that these guards are an elite team.

Lin Qi perceived from the front that the route planning of several teams of guards was very reasonable, and there were not even any blind spots in the field of vision.

However, Lin Qi was keenly aware that each team here seemed to cooperate, but in fact they were distinct, and the coats of arms carved on the armor of different teams were also varied.

They don't seem to belong to the same family.

Under the particularly severe situation recently, the soldiers in charge of guarding the castle area tensed up. An oriental man of unknown origin suddenly appeared in front of the checkpoint, which immediately aroused the vigilance of the guards.

Lin Qi looked at the two groups of Cossack soldiers who had gathered, and felt that their eyes were definitely not friendly.

"Hello, I was hired by Hydra Jekyll Boye to investigate the recent anomalies in the castle area." Lin Qi looked at the crossbow and spear aimed at himself, showed his hands, and slowly moved from his sleeves. He took out Hydera's handwritten letter. "Please forward this letter to Mr. Gregor Sharaf."

The guard at the head took the letter carefully, flipped through it briefly, and then waved his hand behind him.

"Sir Saraf's family, come and see it off."

Lin Qi saw a soldier walking out from the rear. The front of his armor was decorated with a pattern of sharp claws. The soldier took the letter and quickly got on his horse and galloped towards the castle.

Lin Qi quietly waited for the result of the report, and the surrounding soldiers were still staring at him.

Finally, the sound of horseshoes came from the street, "Let go." The soldier who had completed the notification held up the password in his hand and shouted. The atmosphere at the checkpoint immediately relaxed a lot. The guards retracted their weapons, and the soldiers left He stepped forward and removed the iron repelling horse, and opened the gate of the fence.

Lin Qi aimed at a guard with more ornate armor pattern, and took advantage of the opportunity to say: "Is everyone in this place together?" It slipped into the hands of the soldier who just asked the question.

The guard who was accosted was the captain of this guard. He rubbed his fingers calmly. Even through his gloves, he could feel the weight of these new coins with the bust of the empress printed on them. They were neatly sorted out. The beard was slightly raised, and then he seemed very satisfied and said: "That's right, the people here are made up of various families. Very strange things have happened in the castle area recently."

"What happened in the castle area recently, Mr. Hydera didn't tell me the specific news when he hired me, do you know what's the reason?" Lin Qi spoke quickly.

"I heard that someone was assassinated in the castle area. Martial law was suddenly declared in the castle area more than ten days ago in the morning. Several minor nobles were arrested. I heard that a big man was injured. At that time, the people from Sharaf and Stringer looked The most flustered, I don’t know anything else.”

After the captain of the guard finished speaking, he returned to a serious expression. Lin Qi had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​continuing to ask. He knew that he could only learn so much here. .

"So the Sharaf family may be one of the families with the worst situation." Lin Qi speculated based on the information he knew. He knew that the source of this matter came from the poison that spread from the Aesthetic Society, rather than assassination. .

"Then what are these little nobles who were arrested hiding?"
