In July of the year 415, in the southern part of the province of Willy, the town of Condal.
Located in the mountains to the southeastern part of the empire, this town was originally inhabited by miners who mined magic crystals, and it took two hundred years of development to form the size it is today.
Because in the mountains near this town, there is the third largest reserve of rich crystals in the whole continent, and since the discovery of the minerals, it has been an asset belonging to the royal family of Atroca, and the current owner is a widow of a duke, her name is Catherine.
Wayne.
The turmoil in the imperial capital two months ago had a more or less impact on the forces of all sides in Atroka, and although most of the people living in Kangdal at this moment were civilians or slaves who had settled because of this mine, because of the importance of this vein, there were also more or less pro-Atroca, pro-Ifrit, and pro-Vol factions within it.
For example, Viscount Carson, the person in charge of the vein, can have the opportunity to meet the Grand Duchess once a year, and when he submits a report or states his performance, the Grand Duchess with a veil of grace and nobility will also talk to him cordially.
As for Morgan, who served as the commander of the garrison of the Kangdal vein.
Viscount Feliman, on the other hand, has always been closer to the military and political faction of the Wall family, of course, this is not to say that he has any two hearts, neither of them is a prominent figure, but in the end he thinks that the faction is better, and it is just a little talk after dinner, such as the wives and concubines of the two.
Most of them like the family of Ivlit, which exudes dazzling light at any time, Buckna Roxia's sword cold, Florexbina's magical powers, Knorn's graceful atmosphere, Joshua's melancholy vicissitudes, Raphael's amazing talent, these things can be regarded as imperial symbols talked about by the outside world, as for Gabriel's deeds.
That would only be spread in the upper echelons of the empire, and these people would not know about it.
Therefore, when the news of the turmoil in the imperial capital came, the entire Kangdal also fell into a situation of turmoil in the hearts of the people.
The rebellion of the Ifrites failed, most of the Wall family was infiltrated by orcs, Brandt the Great was critically ill, and the empire was about to fall into a new round of war.
Such fears only add to the lively atmosphere in the small square in the centre of Condal every evening, where everyone gathers with food and makes a few imaginary opinions, the only difference.
I'm afraid it's just that Commander Morgan no longer expresses the opinion that the Wall family is strong and so on, and turns to the pro-Atroka faction.
More than a month has passed since the whole thing, and the empire has not suffered much turmoil.
Occasionally, I heard of a rebellion.
It's just a pitiful petty fight.
The minds of the people were roughly set at this time, who knows when the beginning of July will be.
The whole of Condal suddenly became nervous, because from that time on, a wave of adventurers, mercenary groups, and caravans entered the town one after another, and the only hotel in the town was full the next day.
Since then, people have watched in amazement as the men set up tents and makeshift houses to spread over several hills near Kandal.
In half a month, there are thousands of people who have arrived one after another, and many of them have great origins, similar to the Holy Warrior Mercenary Group, the Sword Chasing City-State Mercenary Group, the Miran Squad, the Boxer Alfonso, the Barbarian Slaughterer and the like, most of them are Atroka's famous mercenary groups or super-level warriors at this time, and for these civilians on weekdays, most of these names are like a legend that exists in this world, and now, these people have appeared in front of them one by one, cruising the mountains outside Condal, More often than not, they put a sum of money in the hands of the natives of Condal with a smile on their faces, provided that they were reminded of anything strange in the neighborhood.
Where there are magic veins, there are a lot of messy things, most of these magic veins have been baptized by the leylines for thousands of years, where the magic power is strong, there will often be no warning of glow, explosion, and even because of the tortuous guidance of some strata, resulting in the magic effect that magicians can make, all of a sudden, every time they get a piece of information, these people will flock to those places, and the degree of fanaticism is like a pilgrimage.
Gradually, people learned that the original hermitage of the Holy Son Tianyi 1,800 years ago was located in this mountain near Kangdal, and it belonged to the Holy Son's inheritance, including treasures, artifacts, and martial arts secrets, which was also buried somewhere near Kangdal at this time.
When this news spread, the most nervous were naturally Viscount Carson and Viscount Morgan, the garrison of the vein was about 100 people, but the combat effectiveness was not high, compared to these people who came here at present, if they had malicious intentions, a few people would make a move, and the entire garrison would be wiped out.
On the other hand, minerals are the property of the royal family, but there is no explicit rule that no one else is allowed to approach, and thousands of people from the other side have gathered here, and the troops who have no problem chasing one or two thieves on weekdays are completely useless to these people.
The two of them don't believe in the treasure here, because the ore vein has been mined for more than two hundred years, and the ground has been hollowed out a lot, but there is no discovery They didn't have the ability to rush, they didn't attack the veins, so they could only watch dryly, but what if there was really a treasure here, it was a big problem, once there was a treasure, it would naturally belong to the country, there was no reason for this, and there was no need to explain, but as the supreme commander here, if the treasure was obtained by others, they would naturally be punished.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for such an ordeal to be carried out, and an army of more than 20,000 people had already been stationed here, and with it, there was also a twelve-person reconnaissance team belonging to the Light God Palace.
In addition, an important news also followed.
Soon, Grand Duke Catherine will come and take charge of Condal in person.
On the evening of July 23, Queen Cassandra Highway.
More than 20 horse-drawn carriages stopped on grassy slopes on both sides of the road.
The horses unsaddled and rested by the stream not far away, which looked like a caravan, but from the perspective of the men who were camped and guarded around it, it might have looked more like a group of soldiers.
"Wow, The sunset. ” Jumping out of a large tent in the middle, Christina's face was full of excitement.
This was followed by Vincent, Felix, Tang Yi, Furna, and Xiaoxue, who was sleeping in a wheelchair.
The golden sunset sprinkled an angelic circle of light on Xiaoxue's long silver hair, and the person who had been sleeping for more than a year did not look the slightest change in appearance.
It was still so fresh and natural, as if she had just closed her eyes, with a hint of a smile on the corner of her mouth, and the little furball sat on her neck.
With silver hair as a quilt, he sleeps by himself.
"It's time for dinner, Kerna, and you're tasked with burning the fire.
Watch me show you that extraordinary cooking skills.
Felix said with a smile, and Kna greeted and excitedly went to the edge of the woods.
"Kna has grown a lot over the past year.
It was still with me last year.
Vincent gestured twice with his hands in front of his chest.
That's it for the year.
In this way, she will soon be taller than me."

It's definitely boring to sigh.
Everyone laughed and scolded, and Vincent asked Tang Yi: "How is it, can you still feel it, Sister Lucini has arrived?"
"It should be almost."
"To be honest, you don't actually have to come this time."
He patted Tang Yi on the shoulder, Tang Yi smiled slightly: "When everyone is working hard for this matter, I don't want to stay out of it if I can help, the Demon Devourer usually doesn't seem to be very powerful, but it is a mountain stone, it can attack jade, and when dealing with these alchemy products, a very magical power often occurs, and you also understand, I may be able to find something if I go." ” "Huh."
Vincent nodded, looking at Xiaoxue who was sleeping on the side, "The secret of the Tower of Heaven Adrian They don't want anyone to know, there must be danger this time, in fact, I think you really shouldn't be involved in these things, wait for a while, after Xiaoxue wakes up, the power of the giant god can be a great help, and even in the face of that female worm again, we may have the strength to fight, didn't Sister Lucini also say that Xiaoxue girl woke up, it is estimated that it will be within this year." ” "I also understand, but they have been planning and preparing for decades, we can't wait until the time is ripe to attack, the situation in the imperial capital is complicated, so I want to take them out this time, and settle in Willy Province first, which is Lady Catherine's territory, it is always much safer, if this matter is resolved, I, Furna, and Xiaoxue will go directly back to the Watchful Forest."
What about you, if you really get the Moon Stone to lift Your Majesty's curse, will we still have the same plan?"
"Heh, of course, what did Adrian's gang of guys do, at that time Xiaoxue really woke up, and you were trained by Sister Lucinie, the Death Prayer Bone Flute, the Demon Eater, the Giant God Soldier plus the Doomsday War Heavenly Technique, I want to see what else Adrian can do at that time, haha" He smiled and patted Tang Yi's shoulder heartily, and Furna on the side followed Tang Yi quietly, seeing that several people were happy, she also smiled sweetly.
In addition to the few people who were playing together, there was also a pair of eyes, which were also secretly watching, deep, jealous and fearful, and after a while, the man came closer, and Vincent reacted first: "Frerett, you are here, do you feel okay?"
"His Royal Highness the Prince."
"His Royal Highness the Prince."
Tang Yi and Furna made a noble salute, and Felix, who was preparing the barbecue on the side, treated it as nothing, and he would never give any face to this prince.
"Haha, I exercised in the military at the beginning, what is this distance."
Freette laughed, "And Mr.
Resaduk and Miss Ferna, how many times have I said that you are my eldest brother's friend, that is, my friend, you don't need to call me any His Royal Highness the Prince, by the way, is Aunt Catherine inside, I want to discuss something with her." ” "Oh, yes, we just met her."
Vincent smiled and nodded, and when Frevice walked into the tent beside him, he withdrew his gaze, and Tang Yi said, "You have high hopes for this brother." ” Vincent smiled faintly: "I hope that each of his brothers can be happy, Frerett I also hope that he can be a good emperor, of course, if he can restrain his heart a little but Al you have to be careful, these days, I don't know if it is my delusion, he has been paying attention to you all the way, sometimes looking at you very badly." ” Tang Yi nodded: "I probably noticed it, but I really can't think of what the reason is, Furna has nothing to do with her, Xiaoxue shouldn't have seen him, where did I offend him?"
Vincent frowned, and Felix on the side smiled: "This matter is actually very simple, you see, he has nothing to do with Furna, he hasn't met Xiaoxue, what if it has anything to do with you, although I don't want to admit it, but he must be in love with you, hahahaha Your charm is so invincible, hahahaha" Seeing the way he leaned forward and leaned back with a smile, Tang Yi couldn't help but kick over: "Die, you loveless guy" After a while, Kna had enough firewood to start the campfire, Felix went hunting in the woods, and as the sun was setting, another group of wagons came up from the road from which they came, and the carriages were five in all, and from the flags and goods planted on the carts, it seemed to be a circus.
The name on the banner is very strange, it is called "Buckle Circus".
Seeing this name, Kna said that it was cute, and if she had the chance, she must go and see it.
The people in front of the five carriages who were driving or chatting seemed a little lazy.
Only a girl in the second carriage with a long ponytail and a clown mask appeared to be very energetic.
As the convoy passed the camp, the girl suddenly shouted in surprise: "Everyone, stop" The carriage stopped on the side of the road, and the plainclothes guards in charge of the guard immediately became nervous, only to see the girl jump out of the carriage and run towards this side: "Brother, brother" shouted.
Several people here were a little stunned, the girl ran closer, but was stopped by two guards reaching out, she slapped the guard's hand away, and then took off the mask, revealing an innocent and lovely face: "Oh, I hate it, brother, it's me, I'm Xiaoai":
