Transcendent Noble

Wimbledon Marquis Mansion is located in the southeast corner of the inner city. It covers an area of ​​more than 400 acres. It can be regarded as a top luxury mansion in the aristocratic area of ​​extremely expensive land.

The Marquis Mansion is built on the street, with 4 floors, 18 meters high, with solid granite as the main body and precious white glazed rock as the outer wall. It looks like a jade castle from a distance. However, this gorgeous building is only the facade of the Marquis Mansion. Behind it is a beautiful courtyard and row upon row of buildings. This is the main building area of ​​the Marquis Mansion. Only distinguished guests are eligible to be invited. Go in.

When Victor stepped down from the carriage, there were already more than a dozen attendants waiting for his car at the gate of the Marquis Mansion.

"Viscount Randal, welcome you home." A well-dressed elderly woman curled up her skirt and bowed to Victor. The rest of the attendants followed her and bowed to Victor.

X-3 spins slightly, and Baron's memory clearly appears in Victor's mind. The older woman in front of her was named Helen, the steward of the Marquis's mansion, and Sophia's confidant maid. Helen and Sophia share the same mother and daughter. She is friendly and gentle. The guards and attendants of the Marquis Mansion respect her very much. Little Baron has lived in the Marquis's Mansion for three years. Helen loved him very much and took care of him like a mother. The relationship between the two is extremely close. Little Baron has always called her Aunt Helen.

"Aunt Helen, long time no see." Victor smiled at Helen.

Helen suffocated slightly, her eyes darkened with excitement. Victor’s voice and smile are the same as before, but his temperament and demeanor are completely different. There is no trace of etiquette training between his gestures, but he shows a kind of natural elegance. This is the maturity and self-confidence of the superior, but he The cold eyes can no longer see the feelings of admiration, but indifference and alienation are revealed. Helen understands Victor's experience and also knows that his feelings for Sophia have changed, but seeing her once family members have become so unfamiliar, it still makes her a little sad.

Victor sorted out all the memories of little Baron, but he was quite distant from his emotions. Although he noticed Helen’s emotional changes, Victor couldn’t resonate. He said to a middle-aged man in armor: "Monton teacher, we meet again."

" ...Victor, I'm glad to see you again." Although the middle-aged man said affectionately, he unconsciously bowed a knight salute.

Monton is the guard of the Marquis Mansion, Knight. His position in the Marquis Mansion is much higher than that of the little Baron. He also instructed the little Baron sword technique and martial skill. He is also the sword technique teacher of Victor. Monton didn't expect that when the two met again, the abandoned son had become a great character that disturbed the kingdom. The current Victor, regardless of his position or personal strength, made Monton awe.

Victor laughed and turned to introduce his personal maid. Sisters Elina are cute and lovely. They saw Victor call the older woman Aunt and the middle-aged Knight the teacher, looking towards them one after another giving salutes, and their attitude was quite respectful. The two parties exchanged greetings, and Knight Sean also said goodbye.

After the Knight squad of the House of Internal Affairs left, Victor walked towards the house of the Marquis House with his personal maid and guards. Just as an attendant wanted to stop Gru and the others, he was stopped by Monton with a stern look NS. Victor said nonchalantly with a smile: "The Marquis Mansion is much deserted, but there are a lot more faces."

"With fewer people, the Marquis Mansion is more relaxed." Monton said sighfully. .

Three years ago, the Marquis’s mansion was full of the eyes, eyes and confidants of the queen, and the subordinates loyal to Sophia were overwhelmed by them. Only Baron knew nothing about it. When Sophia reversed the situation, Catherine had to make a compromise. The manpower she planted was dead, and the retreat was withdrawn. The Marquis Palace experienced another major exchange of blood.

Victor now has a higher vision. The game between Sophia and Catherine is considered a major event in the upper class of Gambis, but compared to his troubles, it is not worth it. Victor is curious why Sophia hasn't come forward yet? Although the close relationship between the two has broken down, Centaur Hills represented by Victor is a very important trading partner of Sophia. Based on this, she should not be so indifferent.

Sophia did not show up, and Victor did not ask, the entire group went directly to the inner house of the Marquis Mansion.

Settling down the guard and servant, Victor took a comfortable hot bath under the service of the twin sisters. When he was dressed neatly, Helen had been waiting outside the door for a long time.

"Victor, the dinner is ready."

Victor lightly glanced at Helen, said with a smile: "Go to the study first, you should have something to tell me "After speaking, Victor walked towards Sophia's study with sisters Alina and four alchemy militias. Upon seeing this, Helen sighed, whispered a few words to the waiter beside him, and followed Victor.

Sophia's study room is simple and clear, with a low-key hidden luxury. On the wall behind the main seat, a specimen of the head of Saber-Toothed Tiger, which was killed by Sophia himself, hangs. In Victor's memory, there is no change in this study, except for the lack of the owner.

Victor sat down on the subject behind the desk, and when Knight of Monton came in, he asked, "Where are Sophia?"

Monton and Helen both looked awkward. , Victor said: "these all are people I trust, just tell me."

Hearing Victor’s words, the four alchemy militias were expressionless, while Sister Elina pouted and smiled. They didn't know that no matter what kind of trouble Sophia encountered, Victor was going to throw it to Sylvia. He didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.

Helen sobbed suddenly: "Victor...Sophia is missing! I beg you... Please help her in the relationship between husband and wife!"

Victor startled, when Helen invited him to dinner, he did not mention Sophia. At that time, he guessed that Sophia might not be in the Marquis' mansion, but he didn't expect that Sophia was missing!

"Aunt Helen, don’t worry, speak slowly."

Helen was already crying there, Monton sighed, and said, "Victor, during the water season last year, Lord Sophia personally I led the caravan to Tatun dukedom and participated in the Barbarian biennial fair. The adults were to trade with Barbarian in name, but actually to escort a Barbarian singer back to the clan. This can enhance the reputation of Chamber of Commerce in the Barbarian clan. "

"Under normal circumstances, the caravan goes to Tatun dukedom for up to ten months, but this time..." Mondon paused, and said in a quiet voice: "It took a full twelve months for the caravan to send a message. I don’t know why, the adults took Golan directly into the Turrell mountain range, and the caravan waited for her for two full months. I didn’t see the adults come back. Finally, the caravan left Tatun dukedom as the adults had ordered. After that, we sent Bleeding Eye Crows to contact us every month in the shops of Tatun dukedom. So far, it has been two months. There is still no news from adults."

Victor's mood has become extremely heavy. If Sophia makes a mistake, his layout in Centaur Hills will undergo a major change.

The new farming and pastoral system has allowed Centaur Hills to quickly recover, but it will take at least two years to achieve self-sufficiency. Prior to this, the green wheat provided by Sophia was the most important food supply for Centaur Hills. The plan to absorb the refugees and replenish the population is based entirely on the trade of purple cane wine for green wheat.

According to Rule of Lords, Victor can inherit Chamber of Commerce, but the reality is not that simple. The Gambis Royal Family will never allow the Chamber of Commerce to fall into the hands of the York family, and other kingdoms will not sit back and watch this happen. They will refuse the Chamber of Commerce controlled by the York family. Victor was even more impossible to leave Alchemy Tower and ran over to inherit the Chamber of Commerce. The end result is that the Royal Family made concessions to the York family to ensure the basic food supply of Centaur Hills, Solon inherited the Marquis position, Chamber of Commerce lost its neutrality and headed towards the end, the accumulated wealth was swallowed by the Augustus family, and Centaur Hills’ Food security is in the hands of the Royal Family, and Victor’s plan to absorb the population will most likely be shelved, or at least it will be greatly compromised.

"Aunt Helen, don’t worry. Sophia is a Great Knight of the Silver Order. It shouldn’t be an accident." Victor first comforted him, and then asked Monton: "That caravan is now in Then?"

"The people in that caravan are the confidants of Lord Sophia. Caravan manager Amy Knight pretends to be an adult and declares to go to Suse Kingdom to recruit people. They are here. After unloading the cargo from the border town, we headed east directly to Suse Kingdom." Monton said.

"Very good!" Victor sighed in relief, and solemnly said to Sister Alina: "This matter must not be passed on!"

"Yes!" The twin sisters unanimously Promised.

Gambis needs a neutral Chamber of Commerce, and Royal Family wants to get the immense wealth of Chamber of Commerce. If they learn about Sophia's disappearance, they may not announce her death. When the time comes, even if Sophia is not dead, she is dead too!

Helen and Monton Knight could see the danger, and they confessed to Victor for help. No one can rescue Sophia from Barbarian, but Sylvia can ensure that Sophia is protected from the royal family.

"I will write to His Royal Highness Sylvia, asking her to intervene in this matter. For now, I can only delay as long as possible." Victor said with his jaw.

Monton hesitated for a moment, and said hesitantly: "My lord...this... Chamber of Commerce received an invitation letter from His Highness Andre of the Borui Kingdom, and His Highness Andre invited Sophia My lord went to the Borui Kingdom as a guest..."

Victor's face suddenly became very exciting.

——————————————

Tatun dukedom, Moonbear City.

It is early in the morning when the sky is gray, and the new wind is wrapped in palm-sized snowflakes, raging between Heaven and Earth. More than a dozen tall and burly soldiers wearing thick bearskin capes are patrolling the city gate.

"This damn snow, it's one day, one night, and it's still falling!" A young soldier clamped Lance under his ribs and energized the heat on the gloves until the gloves warmed up slightly. , Just raised his hand to brush off the snow and ice on his eyebrows.

"Damn Nato, don’t come to change us!" The young soldier pulled up the scarf around his neck, re-covered his nose and mouth, and muttered to the soldier Captain beside him: "Head, take it off today. After an errand, how about a few drinks at the pub?"

"Early morning, what wine to drink! Don't support the family?" Captain scolded.

"Head, the purple cane wine shipped by the Bucks Chamber of Commerce sells very fast. If we don’t drink today, I’m afraid we will have to wait a few more months." Another soldier laughed hehe To say.

"Yes. The ratio of gin and purple cane liquor is almost like horse urine. We will go to the Fat Deer Tavern, surround the fire, heat the purple cane liquor, and order a half. Roasted moose, tsk tsk...the taste..."

"Yes! Yes! Everyone collects some money, the big guy has a good meal."

The soldiers chatted happily, and Captain secretly swallowed.

The north is very cold, and the Tatunian is addicted to alcohol. Gin was originally the best cheap wine in Moonbear, but the new purple cane has a much better taste than gin. The Bucks Chamber of Commerce brought 400 barrels of purple cane wine this time and sold 150 barrels to Moonbear City. The rest were sold to Barbarian. 80 barrels of the 150 barrels of purple cane wine were taken away by the lord, and only 70 barrels actually flowed to the market. Although the price of purple cane liquor is four times that of gin, it still sells very well. In order to prevent the purchase of purple cane liquor, the City Lord also issued a special restriction order, and each person can only buy two large glasses of purple cane in the tavern every day. liquor. Even so, the purple cane wine is almost sold out.

"The marquess of the Bucks Chamber of Commerce is really beautiful. If I can kiss me, I will live 20 years less." The young soldier was already drunk before he drank.

"Shut up!" Captain warned in a low voice, "If you are heard by Master Tag'ao, you must cut your tongue!"

Tag'ao is from the Moonbear family The heir of, since the marquess of the Bucks Chamber of Commerce visited Moonbear City, he has been around the beautiful and alluring marquess. Once there was a servant who was slightly disrespectful in front of Marquess, and was half to death by Tago. Marquess showed his loyalty to the heirs of the Moonbear family, and Tagao did not dare to overstep it.

The young soldier shivered. When he saw several colleagues showing the expressions of taking pleasure in other people's misfortune, cold sweat oozes from his forehead.

Just as the young soldier was about to ask for mercy, an older soldier shouted: "It looks like someone is coming!"

In the misty white snow, a slender silhouette was standing Walk towards Moonbear City.

"Is a woman? It seems something is wrong..."

Captain tried to open his eyes, through the snow, he saw a woman in a fur skirt Although she couldn't see her face clearly, her swaying gait showed fascinating charm and grace.

Seeing several majestic silhouettes appearing behind the woman, Captain finally knew that something was wrong. The snow outside the city can drown people's legs, and the woman has been walking on the snow. However, Captain can no longer be surprised at this time, because the few people behind the woman are almost as tall as her even if they are trapped in the thick snow. They are all Barbarians! The most shocking thing is that more Barbarian appeared behind them, almost more than 300 people.

"Shoot the alarm! Quick! Pull up the suspension bridge!" Captain pulled off his scarf and shouted.

Moonbear city never prohibits Barbarian from entering, but it does not mean that hundreds of Barbarians are allowed to enter the city at the same time. These powerful strangers comparable to Knight are enough to lift Moonbear city upside down.

"Dang" "Dang" "Dang"

The sound of strong bells echoed on the city wall, a group of soldiers quickly ran out of the barracks, two groups of strong soldiers Pushing the winch hard, the suspension bridge slowly retracted, Barbarian's team was still 100 meters away, and Captain finally relaxed.

When everyone thought it was safe, a Barbarian swiftly passed the leading woman, and saw his arms arching from left to right, two dark shadows tracing a distance of hundreds of meters, with a screaming scream. , Flew straight over. The arm thick and thin iron rope broke, and the suspension bridge that lost its traction slammed heavily on the ground.

"peng!"

Snow and fog rose all over the sky, and the soldiers pushing the winch fell into a ball. After the snow mist dissipated, Captain looked down, and he saw two throwing axes deeply embedded in the hard city wall, and the woman was already standing on the side of the suspension bridge.

This woman is dressed completely Barbarian. Under the animal skin skirt, two well-proportioned and slender legs were exposed to the icy air, and the naked jade foot stepped on the snow, a little more crystal clear than the surrounding white snow. The Earth Dragon belt on the slender waist outlines a plump chest. Under the short purple hair is a devastatingly beautiful pretty face. The intoxicating eyes are flowing in the amethyst-like eyes. When the pink lips are slightly raised, the soft voice reaches the city gate.

"This is Sophia. Marquis Wimbledon, please open the city gates, please?"
