The majestic Fort Carmel still towers above the earth. The immortal and indestructible city walls and countless arrow towers surround Fort Carmel. As the capital of the entire Fort Carmel County, Carmel

The capital of the great emirate, the power of Fort Carmel makes everyone tremble.

But today's Fort Carmel feels a little depressing. The dark night sky is faintly filled with thunder, and the occasional crow that passes by seems to bring misfortune.

The Chief of Fort Carmel was very sick and depressed on the hospital bed. It was extremely difficult to even speak. His heart function had shrunk to the extreme and his body was almost unable to move.

Of course, the witch doctors of this era did not know what a shrunken heart was. They only knew that the gods had sent down a divine punishment on the old chief, and that the disease that could not be cured was a messenger from the gods.

They could only pray, hoping that the gods would appease the disease and restore the health of the Chief of Fort Carmel.

"How is my father doing now?" Lopul, the eldest son of the chief of Fort Carmel, asked quickly when he saw the priest of the Hiyom Cult walking out of the house. He looked a little anxious.

"It's very bad. We have done everything we can, but we can't drive away the disease." The Hiyom priest shrugged. There was nothing he could do. He used herbs, tried bloodletting, and even prayed.

It went on all the time, but the angry gods seemed unwilling to let the old chief live.

He was also frightened in his heart. Could it be that the great chief who once made all the Catholic dukes so fearful was really going to die like this? Die helplessly on the hospital bed?

"How could... be like this..." Luo Puer's face turned miserable, filled with sadness, and for a moment he was a little bit more embarrassed.

"Crying will only make you weak, and it is of no use at all." The Hiyom Cult priest shook his head.

"I'm sorry, I lost my temper." Luopuo quickly wiped away the tears in his eyes. He couldn't show this attitude in front of others, otherwise it would greatly reduce his reputation, especially when his father was about to pass away.

Sometimes, doing so would be fatal to him.

"I understand your mood, go in quickly, the chief wants to see you." The Hiyom Cult priest waved his hand, and finally left here. He needed to return to the temple to find a way to cure the disease, although he knew the high probability

It is impossible to find such an existence.

Hearing that the chief of Fort Carmel said that his father wanted to see him, Lopul hurriedly opened the door and walked in.

The smell of various herbs came from inside the door and mixed together. The smell seemed very weird and uncomfortable.

But Lopul had no intention of frowning and leaving. He just focused his attention on the old man on the hospital bed.

The figure who could fight bloody battles in his youth was stooped, and his once bright eyes were full of confusion, as if he would lose consciousness and return to the embrace of the gods in the next moment.

"Lopul, my child...you are here..." The chief of Fort Carmel saw Lopul, and even noticed the tears in the corners of his eyes. He couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and his face was filled with emotion.

He has three sons, but in the end, only this son was willing to stay by his side and cry for him.

"Father...I'm here..." The tears that Lopul had just stopped seemed to be unable to stop again. He knelt down beside the bed of the Chief of Fort Carmel, holding his hand tightly.

The hands of the chief of Fort Carmel were very rough. After all, he had been fighting for a lifetime, and holding a sword became the most important thing in his life.

As he aged, his skin also became looser, and the hand held by Luopuo was very weak, and he might even drop it at any time.

"Father..." Luo Pu couldn't help calling.

"My son...I am about to return to the embrace of the gods, are you ready..."

"What?" Luo Puer was a little confused.

The chief of Fort Carmel suddenly became serious, and Lopper instantly felt that the man in front of him seemed to be the young chief who had scolded Fang Qiu when he was young. He had the same status as the Duke.

That kind of temperament made his heart tremble. Only those who sit on the throne all year round can develop such a temperament.

"My son... after I die, you will be the heir to the great chieftain of Fort Carmel and rule the great chiefdom of Fort Carmel, and Fort Carmel will be the place you directly rule. My title, you

Are you ready to inherit?" Carmelburg's voice was stern. He knew that his son was a little weak and had to be forced to do some things.

Following his question, the entire room fell silent, and the Chief of Fort Carmel was also quietly waiting for his son's reply.

"Father, I...are ready. I will be the Chief of Fort Carmel, the ruler of this castle, and everyone in the Chief Kingdom of Fort Carmel must surrender to me!" Lopul raised his head sharply.

He looked at the chief of Fort Carmel, and his voice was sonorous and powerful.

This time, the chief of Fort Carmel was stunned. He looked at his child blankly, as if he did not expect such words to appear on Lopul.

But then he smiled. He was very satisfied with Lopul's answer. An ambitious ruler is always good. A ruler without ambition will only be said to be cowardly and lose the loyalty of his vassals.

"Lopul, I'm very happy that you can say that." The chief of Fort Carmel, who was tortured by the illness, smiled with difficulty. If there were any little girls here, they would definitely be scared away by this creepy smile.

.

"But it's one thing to have such an idea, and it's another thing to be able to do it." After saying this, the Chief of Fort Carmel patted his clothes, feeling a little regretful.

"Son, I have laid a solid foundation for you. At least from the beginning you can rule Fort Carmel, the capital of Fort Carmel County, rule this county, and this kind of rule is extremely powerful. In Fort Carmel

No one will disobey you, and your brothers and sisters, they only have an ordinary castle as a stronghold, and their respective strengths are far inferior to you." The chief of Fort Carmel slowly closed his eyes.

A blind person naturally knows that once he really dies, the great emirate of Fort Carmel will definitely fall into chaos. Among other things, his other two sons will definitely rebel. They only hope that they will take the position of the chief.

.

But he couldn't change anything. The inheritance method of the Grand Emirate of Fort Carmel and other emirates were the same. They were divided inheritance methods, that is, his title and territory would be divided equally among all his sons, while his master

The title will be inherited by his eldest son, in which case the entire country will become weak because the power cannot be concentrated together.

The only change he made was to make his vassals loyal to his eldest son through contracts and promises.

But he knew that it was useless. His other sons also had a castle in their hands, each ruling one-third of the territory of the Great Emirate of Fort Carmel, and they also had powerful armies. They themselves were also at war.

A good hand.

And what about his eldest son? He sees his filial piety and is very satisfied with it, but he is really a bit cowardly. He dare not think about what if his eldest son is really captured or escapes on the front line.

, what a crisis that would cause, his brothers would eat him up until there was no flesh left.

He has no doubt about this. Under the huge temptation of ruling the entire Carmel Emirate, no one will care about family ties... Maybe, but he knows that his sons will not.

"I heard that your brothers and sisters have become restless. Those things that are looting everywhere... must be disguised by their army." The chief of Fort Carmel tapped his fingers lightly and made some slight noises.

sound.

Lopul was horrified. He didn't expect that his father, who was sick in bed, knew so clearly what was happening in the territory.

"Yes, father." Lopul nodded. In fact, he was very angry. His father was already so ill, but his brothers and sisters didn't care at all. At this juncture, they still wanted to rob and accumulate money.

Enough money and weapons to facilitate rebellion later.

"Well, it's useless for you to stay here. Go out and let those priests come in. You should show your face more in front of the vassals. I probably won't live long. The rest will be up to you.

Take advantage of this opportunity." The chief of Fort Carmel waved his hand, slowly closed his eyes and lay on the bed.

He has done enough. When he inherited this title from his father, the old chief of Fort Carmel, his situation was worse than that of Lopul, but he was defeated by his own strength.

Come down.

Even at that time, a quarter of Fort Carmel County was in the hands of the old Duke of Rezland, and he fought it back. This earned him the title of hero throughout his life, and he also believed that he was worthy of it.

deserves this title.

Although his eldest son is a bit cowardly compared to his brothers and sisters, his blood still flows in his body after all, and he believes that Lopul can do the same.

"Gods of the Hiyom Cult... Are you so anxious to summon your believers to serve you in the temple..." Chief Carmel Fort's breathing became lighter and lighter, and Lopul did not dare to disturb his father anymore.

He left the room lightly and called the priests from the Hiyom Sect who had stayed in Fort Carmel back in so that they could treat his father.

"My brothers and sisters, you really make me very angry. I will definitely regain my honor and let the flag of Fort Carmel be planted throughout Fort Carmel County. You will not be able to stop me!"

On the way away, Lopul's eyes flashed with blazing anger. At this moment, his fighting spirit was completely aroused, and with it came the murderous intention...
