Lord of War

  When the Millennium Covenant Empire felt that the end of the world might have come, the Principality of Lane suddenly fell into a joy.

  The garrison of the Thousand-Year Covenant Empire, located 30 miles outside the Fortress of St. Drones, did not know why it suddenly withdrew. Although this is indeed good news, when a huge black "color" barrier suddenly appeared in the area where the original Millennium Covenant Empire was stationed, the soldiers of the Fortress of St. Drones might not be happy. Many people's faces are even full of sadness.

  Especially, even if they are thirty miles away, everyone in the fortress can feel an extremely uncomfortable feeling.

  If there are church personnel here, then they must be able to find that this is the breath of the abyss, and this breath is also extremely tyrannical, it is obvious that the creatures in the enchantment are definitely not small. But it is a pity that there is no church personnel stationed in the Fortress of St. Drones, so they could not find a great demon of the Lord of the Abyss level is planting flowers and plants to sleep in.

  Anyway, his task is to drive away the people from the Millennium Covenant Empire, and then Andrew promised him a 30-day holiday.

  Enkos always feels that having a 30-day holiday is too comfortable, he even can’t wait to go to bass to show off, because he knows that he is trapped in a place where he can’t move. For Enkos, it's actually no different from lying in Andrew's coffin—perhaps a coffin with a bit wider range? Enkos felt that it seemed a good idea to run to the biggest edge where the bass can move to exude a little breath of oneself, and then get some barbecue there.

   However, compared to the panic of the St. Drones Fortress, the royal family of the Principality of Lane looked very happy.

Not only did the garrison of the Thousand-Year Covenant Empire retreat, but even the dragon knight Turman, who was planning to go to Pandaren, also hurriedly returned to the empire. Although he did not say hello to the principality, he rode back directly on the dragon. The Grand Duke of the Principality was a little upset, but at least after the haze shrouded by the Thousand-Year Covenant Empire, Grand Duke Lane was really happy.

  Of course, another pleasant news is that he has heard that Baron Panda and Count Tinchine of Darbion are fighting, and he has successfully won a beautiful victory. The two territories that originally belonged to the Kingdom of Darbion, Yedbyring and Tinkyin, have been divided by the Baron Panda and the Marquis of Tonis. [

  For Duke Ryan, this is naturally a face-saving thing.

  But for other nobles in the Principality, it was very annoying.

the reason is simple.

  For the nobles, wanting to grow the family is naturally an external war. Only in this way can they gain military merit, promote the family again, and make the family more prosperous. But now the Principality of Lane is the territory of the trading capital to the north, and the entire west to the south is the territory of the Millennium Covenant Empire. Obviously, these two forces cannot be provoked at all. The only thing that can be provoked is the Darfur located in the east. Kingdom of Bion.

  However, if you want to find trouble in the Kingdom of Darbion, you must pass the Tonis Fortress of the Marquis of Tonis. Can they be sent out without formal excuses? That is simply uncomfortable for myself.

  At this time, many nobles began to resent Kiasna. If she hadn't insisted on returning all the occupied territories to the Kingdom of Darbion a few years ago, how could they still be restricted and unable to develop? So these conspiracy theorists, whether it is the emerging aristocratic group or the old aristocratic group, feel that Asuna chose to return those territories back then because they were afraid that they would become stronger.

   And now watching the pioneer knight who was formerly Asuna's command, and now the occupied territory is equivalent to a piece of earl, these people become very uncomfortable in their hearts.

  The territory occupied by a baron is equivalent to the territory of an earl. How can this make people feel good?

They also heard that Asuna recruited a new pioneering knight, and this time it was even more excessive, actually directly using the earl of Tinkiin as the development territory of the pioneering knight, and now the nobles in the Principality of Lane No one can sit still anymore.

  So, the call to declare war on Darbion began to increase in the country.

  Sean didn’t know, now the Principality of Lane is full of a kind of war frenzy. You must know that this is not the plan in his script. Although Sean came to this world, many of his thoughts have changed, and he has also gradually learned to be a nobleman, and will think about issues from the perspective of aristocratic politics, but sometimes many things are actually lacking in consideration, and some are too far. Take it for granted.

In his mind, history will inevitably develop gradually according to the plot of the game, so what he needs is to provoke a war, and then give Asuna an excuse to intervene, and then trigger the war between the two countries-in fact, the history in the game does It has evolved like this, but at the time, tens of thousands of players who played the role of provoking war were piled up in the form of piles of tasks.

  But in this real world, people all have their own emotions and desires, such as human heart, surname, sex, ambition, etc. If only one of them sprouts, then it is very likely that it will evolve into a prairie fire situation. So the real counselors in this world are all going with the trend, and almost no one will do that contrarian. So the only thing that Sean didn't consider is that these actions are actually creating momentum.

  Now that the situation is complete, the call of the Principality of Lane for a fight is to take advantage of the trend.

  If Sean knew this, then he would definitely be more concealed and cautious in doing things, instead of being so high-profile. Because once the Principality of Ryan takes the initiative to declare war and follow the trend, Sean will get too little benefit from it, and it can even be said that he will completely lose his dominant position in this war. [

  However, Sean doesn’t even know these.

He didn't even know that Andrew had already shot Turman away for him, and he didn't know that the army of the Millennium Covenant Empire withdrew from outside the Fortress of St. Drones because of Enkos's visit, which led to a new round of the Millennium Covenant Empire. The internal "chaotic" coup incident was advanced.

  The only thing Sean cares about right now is when Thain will come back.

  And how many things will he bring back.

  ...

  This is a dilapidated manor in the woods, located in a mountain forest to the northeast of Tin Chiin, only half a day from the nearest town.

  This manor was built by Domingo’s grandfathers.

The Hastings family has also had two crises of almost being exterminated, especially the second time, when the enemy went straight to Tin Chin Castle and came to wait and see. If it were not for the timely support of allies at the time, the Hastings family was actually there. He died in a war. So after that war, the fourth-generation Patriarch of the Hastings family secretly built this forest manor here. After all, Fort Tinchin’s name is too loud, and it is very likely that the enemy will be intercepted there. , So since then the resources in the territory have been secretly transported to this manor continuously.

  This place is only known to the true core members of the Hastings family, and even the Nugus family does not know that the Hastings family has such a secret hiding place.

  At this moment, a very embarrassed young man broke into the manor.

  He did not walk through the main entrance, but climbed in through a wall.

  He seemed to have no strength anymore. He fell to the ground only after climbing over the wall.

  Suddenly, a long spur fell obliquely, and then stopped on the young man's neck.

  The young man turned his head in a little horror. It seemed that he was accidentally scratched by the long sword because of his excessive movements. The blood flowed from a small wound, and his white shirt was soon soaked in red.

   "Syne!"

When the middle-aged man holding the sword saw the young man clearly, a faint "color" appeared on his face, and he immediately put away the long sword, and lifted Thain up with joy.

"Uncle Kerry!" Thain stood up suddenly, then plunged into the arms of the middle-aged man. It seemed that his tight nerves were finally relaxed. Tears suddenly flowed out of Thain's eyes, "I...I lose. Now! I lost a terrible defeat! They actually have a strong reinforcements, the Nugus family gave us wrong information, they actually have seven golden powers! Mr. Laubert, he is in order to protect... he... he..."

   "Oh." The middle-aged man sighed and patted Thain's back lightly, "It's okay, it will be alright, our Hastings family will never be defeated so easily!"

   "By the way, where's your father?" Thain raised his head and asked expectantly.

  "Master Domingo..." The middle-aged man named Kerry looked embarrassed and didn't know how to speak.

  "No!" Thain's face "color" became abnormal in an instant, and he took a few steps backwards, "You lied to me! You must be joking with me, right! Father... Father father..."

   seemed unwilling to believe the ending, Thain was about to rush towards the house, but Kerry grabbed it with one hand.

   "Let go of me!" Thain let out a roar, "I don't believe it!"

"Tian! Calm down!" Kerry let out a shout, his tone aggravated, "Your father said when he was dying, you are the next head of the Hastings family. You are now Hastings. Patriarch of the family, if you are all like this, then how do you lead the rest of our people to revenge?"

  Hearing Kerry's words, Thain's face was "come" miserable, tears streaming from his eyes, but he pressed his lips tightly without saying a word.

"Oh." Kerry sighed when he saw Thain's appearance. "Don't think about it so much. The people who escaped from Hastings Manor that night have all gathered here. You can take a break first, these Good day, you have worked hard, we are very safe here, and they will come to discuss the next action in the evening."

   was silent for a long time before Thain lowered his head and said plainly: "Uncle Kerry, how many of us... total escaped?"

   "Well, there were fifteen people who escaped, but now there are only nine people left, including me and you." Kerry said with a sad expression on his face.

   "Then...what about the core members of the family?" Thain asked.

  The real most important thing in a family is naturally the core members, that is, the so-called direct line and those who are truly talented. The Hastings family is not particularly large, but it is not small. There are more than forty members of the family living in Hastings Manor, but only a dozen of them can be counted as core members, but since Sommahys After Ting disappeared and Avi Hastings, Taylor, Turnkey and others died, the core members dropped sharply to within double digits.

   "I and Heka are the only ones left." Kerry said softly, "But now Heika is seriously injured and is resting in the room."

   "Uncle Kerry, I will definitely avenge the family!" Thain said suddenly, "I will avenge my father, and I will revive the Hastings family!"

   "I know." Kerry nodded, "I believe you can do it too!"

   "By the way, Uncle Kerry, I want to borrow something from you." Thain suddenly raised his head and said.

"what…"

Before    Kerry had finished speaking, he saw a sword light suddenly waved by, and his head was already flying.

Soon, this human head fell from mid-air and rolled on the ground a few times. The face of the dusty servant instantly became even dirtier, but his eyes still showed a bit of kindness. ".

Thain looked at Kerry's head, his eyes gradually becoming gloomy. Although there were still tears on his face, his body was already exuding an aura of indifference. This aura has been limited to the critical point of the lower gold power: " That's your head, Uncle Kerry."

  After a while, Thain blew a whistle with him on his body, making a kind of bird song.

  Soon, there began to be northern barbarians escaping the wall from the manor.

  As Thain waved his finger to the several buildings ahead, two or three hundred steel-winged soldiers consciously divided into several teams and began to enter these buildings. After a while, there were shouts of anger and fighting from these buildings, but these voices did not persist for long, they turned into screams, and then the corpses were removed from the buildings one by one by the northern barbarians. Bring the object out and put it in front of Thain.

   Including Kerry’s head, there are a total of eight corpses, but there are northern barbarians reported in the garden behind the manor, and seven new tombstones.

  No more, no less, exactly fifteen people.

   Thain quickly took these steel-winged soldiers, smashed open the door of a basement, and then entered a basement.

  This basement is nothing more than the space on the ground floor of the Black Swan Castle, and it may even be wider than that. At this moment, in this basement, there are all kinds of gold coins, jewels, weapons, and even many precious and rare materials and drawings, but what is really eye-catching is the set in the middle of the basement. armor.

   Thain knows that this is the real heirloom of the Hastings family, a set of legendary armor!

Similarly, he already knew that the information Domingo told him was obviously wrong, because the wealth in this basement was obviously more than one million. Not to mention the legendary armor, only gold coins and various materials are worth the least. As many as four or five million, this is obviously more than the background of an earl family, and even the background of a top marquis family is not an exaggeration.

  Sean's eyes flashed a bit of sullenness, and then he said in a deep voice, "Move all away!"

"Yes!"

  All the northern barbarians did not hesitate, and immediately began to move.

And looking at the movements of these northern barbarians, Thain’s face was very calm, but his fists were clenched, but his nails were almost pierced into the flesh, and his fists were dyed red with blood. It drips continuously from the fingers.

   "I will definitely avenge the Hastings family!" (To be continued.)
