The setting sun is like fire, and Romandy ushered in another dusk. (Go to ‘’ to read the text novel) ~
When the deep crimson shines on the masonry of different materials, it reflects a hazy purple, outlining the entire city into a blurry, layer-by-layer, yet distinct shade of color.
Layers of... rings.
Like many large cities on the mainland, Romandy has the structure of an inner city and an outer city, which is an inevitable result of urban scale development and a regular picture of the gradual concentration of power and wealth; but it is somewhat different from most large cities.
Yes, it is the Romantic inner city, which has much neater streets and lanes than the outer city - vertical and horizontal streets, each of which has the same form. Even though it is deep and criss-crossing, it has clear latitude and longitude.
There is no chaos at all. The past that was burned by the fire of the war hundreds of years ago has brought sorrow to the ancestors, which has long since disappeared; the rules that were broken and then established have allowed future generations to enjoy order.
It brings transcendent convenience and tranquility.
Or perhaps human beings are really weird creatures. They are always keen to gather in one place, but they use various methods and rules to distinguish each other... and Romandy's exceptionally simple structure clearly outlines this habit.
The example of this - layers of rings progressing inward, so that the farther away from the majestic city in the center, the lower and fuzzy, crawling like garbage in the muddy water. On the contrary, the ones that are taller and clearer, like art
of exquisite splendor.
But the differences between people are not the same. Civilians with skills don't bother to associate with homeless people, and mercenaries will not get together with civilians. Between these layers of rings,
There are also different subtly divided pages, especially close to the inner layer - even this leisurely dusk is divided into two types here. On the west side of the inner ring, the ancient nobles like the old ones that are sufficiently settled.
It can make people reminisce about the past, those eras that directly belong to them. On the other side, wealthy businessmen, newly promoted petty officials and the outburst of dignitaries in the eyes of some people are keen on architectural forms that are updated extremely fast. In the past two or three years,
Within ten years, those sculptures with fashionable styles and decorations seemed to be shining with affluence, sophistication and arrogance even in this quiet and gentle dusk.
Like the name of this neighborhood, Gil Platinum - Expensive Collateral
The Gil Platinum District is extremely quiet under the setting sun. There are only a few pedestrians dressed as servants, each in a hurry to complete their last work of the day - returning to their mansion, but for most of the people living here,
For people, dusk is not the end of the day, but the most exciting beginning. When the sunset completely sets in the west, the banquets and the flow of people will make the noise and glitz bloom again in the mansions.
Ascension.(Read the text novels at '')
But today, is it destined to be a little different?
The rumbling sound came from the other end of the street - dozens of pairs of shoes vibrated on the stone slabs on the ground, shattering the brief peace and tranquility that should have belonged to the evening. The slight trembling on the ground made Anju Anju feel at home.
It brought dissatisfaction and fear to the people in the mansion, like a dark cloud passing across the sky.
Everywhere you can see servants poking their heads out of the windows in a panic, with doubtful eyes. Behind them, there is the voice of the master's uncontrollable questioning - although Gil Platinum does not belong to those who are proud of tradition and etiquette.
Nobles, but it is rare to see such a grand galloping. Even the city guards rarely gather more than ten knights in this area, let alone startling people like this.
Running wildly, but now, the number of horses marching in the street has exceeded 30. They are neatly dressed, and they hold not only the long swords usually used in law enforcement, but also tower shields, and they never
Judging from the same noise coming from a distance, this team is not even one.
Such departure from ordinary changes often brings unpleasant consequences, and in some extreme cases, what it represents may need to be described by the word "terrible".
For example, thirty-five years ago, the 'Noble Jim' family was dubbed the largest espionage case in the kingdom and was bloodbathed overnight. For example, twenty-two years ago, the family embezzled 370,000 gold coins from the kingdom.
As for the Lakarin clan of fox terriers whose houses were confiscated, the lame fox Doan twenty years ago, the crow Crow nineteen years ago... As for those boring and pitiful dereliction of duties, they have been unable to deal with them one by one.
To enumerate. Merchants and new nobles may have stabilized their rise in ancient Tuminis, but no matter what kind of change they take, they are destined to be unable to leave the foundation stained red by blood.
Just as countless people along the road were in a state of inexplicable fear or surprise and curiosity, more than a hundred fully armed knights gathered in the center of the city, dispersed, and formed a sparse queue, surrounding the gate of a certain mansion——
An inconspicuous building, with an elegant but unassuming garden, and a four-story mansion of neither height nor height. Only the bright pattern on the door pointed out the owner, the Lord.
(Just read the novel) This is a certain kind of honor obtained by a merchant family that is outside the traditional nobility. It does not have most of the aristocratic rights or even hereditary qualifications, but it can still be regarded as belonging to a noble family.
A kind of preparation. In the past few decades, such emerging families have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and they have attracted more and more people's attention. However, short-lived cereus without a deep foundation often means that they wither more quickly.
Of course, it seems that today's incident is not as serious as most people imagined, because the knights just lined up quietly and then asked the mansion's concierge to call in, and did not show any direct enforcement of the law.
There was no unhappiness caused by any panic in the mansion. After a slight delay, a group of people hurried out and met the leader of the knights at the door.
The leader of the group was an old man wearing a civilian style and a gorgeous blue robe. His silver hair was neatly combed, but he walked slowly and his body seemed to have become accustomed to a hunched shape.
"Your Excellency Baron Danfang? It's been a long time..." He bowed to the leader of the knights as a gesture, but he didn't seem to show any more respect because of the other person's title. Such a large battle is really rare. City Guards
Aren't our knights always diligent in their work and seldom engage in such actual combat training? Then, each baron chooses, are you in the mood to explain to me the purpose of all this?"
"Excuse me, Elchin. I am not well-off, so please allow me to omit the detailed process."
The leading knight nodded slightly on his horse, raised the visor of his helmet, and spoke in a calm voice. Not long ago, an unpleasant... despicable assassination incident occurred on Tyrol Avenue. The victim was the Viscount of the Kingdom.
, Rolsey Orin Cumberland. In the previous operation, we captured the criminal who carried out this despicable operation; but... now there is a small problem. They identified it as this assassination operation.
The mastermind is some member of the family you serve. ~So the conclusion is that according to the security rules and procedures of the city guard, His Excellency Lord Rampion, or one of his agents, needs to follow us on a journey.
Go to the garrison and give a face-to-face explanation of this matter."
"And you, Baron Danfang, mobilized the security cavalry of the city guard to surround the house of our innocent businessman just because of the vicious slanders of a few petty thieves?"
The old man raised his gaze slightly, but there seemed to be something metallic in his gentle words? Qiang threatened a kind-hearted businessman who abides by the law with force before there was any conclusive evidence. The bad impact of this frivolous move... I think, Lang
Therefore, the Pion family will retain the basic right to appeal to His Majesty the King. (Read the text novel to get there'') and believe that someone must take full responsibility for this matter and compensate us for our losses in both spiritual and material aspects..."
"Haha, Lorente Elchin, just like you, I am just a little person who obeys orders. Compensation or not is not within my jurisdiction." The commander of the cavalry raised the visor of his helmet again.
It seems that this will allow more people to see the smile below. Whether the witness's testimony is credible should not be determined by his personal qualities. Such disputes are meaningless, and a tough attitude will not help solve any problems.
, will only hinder a fair investigation. If you really have nothing to do with this incident, why can't you prove it with sincerity?"
"If you can mobilize troops with such baseless words, then everyone behind me can prove the innocence of the Rampion family. They cannot have the slightest connection with any gangsters who are causing trouble in the dark.
Related." The old man stared at his face without giving an inch, as if he didn't even want to elaborate on some words of rebuttal.
But after some awkward silence, he spoke slowly again, and then his tone became clear and determined. His Excellency, Baron Danfang, I think there must be some misunderstanding, a complete misunderstanding... With Woking
Your Majesty guarantees that this matter has nothing to do with us, law-abiding people like the Rampion family from beginning to end. Presumably these are just boring rumors... Ah no, it should be an outright malicious slander against my master's family.
, and in order to prove our innocence, as the person in charge of the family's business affairs, I am willing to go with you and cooperate with your investigation."
"I'm afraid... it's not enough, Elchin, although I recognize your identity." The leader of the knights glanced at the old man's face covered with scratches and shook his head slowly. But the order I received requires that at least one person be required.
Need a Rampion to be there..."
"I'm afraid this request is a bit too much. Baron Danfang, the family is busy with some minor troubles on the trade road... several masters have left Romanti for this reason, well, ahem, only Loren
Mr. Te is responsible for the task of staying behind and adjusting... And the young masters... ahem, they are still young. Can you give us some mediation? I believe that Viscount Rossi Olin Cumberland is not unreasonable.
Reasonable people, we can...ahem..." As if because of the urgency in his heart, a violent cough interrupted him. He walked forward slowly, as if trying hard to express his meaning clearly, but
The voice is inevitably weak. (Just read the novel)
After a little hesitation, the baron showed his chivalry - he jumped off the horse first and supported the old man's body.
However, even though there were more than a hundred pairs of eyes staring at this scene, no one noticed that just as the two people were intertwining, a small piece of parchment rolled into a roll had been handed over smoothly.
It was in the hands of the knight. With the help of his hand, it slipped into the gap in his breastplate without any smoke or smoke.
And when the old man's breath became smooth, the knight commander showed a helpless and gentle smile. Okay... In this case, then there is Lao Erqin, but with the approval of Viscount Rolsey Olin Cumberland, and the city
I cannot remove the guards here until the Guards Headquarters issues an order, and, sorry to say, we can only give you six hourglass hours of space."
…
Just a few hundred feet away from the scene, layers of walls blocked out the sound of horse hooves and the noise... However, the conversation going on in this gorgeous room was still closely related to it.
"Several dens have been destroyed, and many people have been arrested... Tsk tsk, almost half of them. The three leaders have been stuffed into the cage. It seems that the famous ice boxing club has come to an end...
...Serafy, it seems that the person you offended this time is not a small person who can be easily dealt with as you said?"
Stroking the beard that had just sprouted above his lips, the young man in blue shirt sighed, but the raised eyebrows made the expression on his face mixed with a bit of excitement, especially when he looked at
When the tall figure with broad shoulders and slightly bowed head stood standing in the center of the hall, the luster in his eyes made people... extremely angry. I heard that he seemed to be a member of an organization called the Stinger.
It’s so troublesome. But this Viscount of Cumberland is quite capable of causing trouble. He actually mobilized a large group of city guards. Alas, it’s really troublesome.”
"Prudence, what do you mean?" Seraphi Rampion raised her head, her wide-open eyes were already covered with a layer of fine bloodshot eyes, as if stained with blood, and the resentment in every word was even more intense.
It's as sharp as a knife.
But the person he was glaring at and trying to tear apart with his eyes did not show the slightest fear, but only smiled a little more infuriatingly. So Serafi clenched her fists bitterly and took a step forward -
-In fact, he looked like he was about to take more steps, but he stopped abruptly and was stopped.
Although it was him who stopped in his tracks, it was a look that forced him to take this action.
"Be quiet."
His gaze poked out from a pair of almost stagnant, turbid eyes, scanning the entire hall, and then came a word that was as low as a mutter. But the moment the words were heard, the hall that was more than fifty feet in radius fell into silence.
The needles can be heard, and all the scattered eyes of more than ten people are focused on the old man sitting on the rocking chair in front of him, who is so thin that he seems to have shrunk.
"Selafi, you did what happened this time and failed to make up for it, which brought trouble to the family." The old man spoke slowly, his voice calm. "So, you should hand over all the things in your hands now."
Come down..."
The young man who was still angry just now has lowered his head and restrained his hands, and his angry eyes were suppressed under his eyelids. Only the slightly trembling fingers hanging by his side were still reflecting the emotions in his heart. He quietly
He listened to the old man's next words, but at the last moment he suddenly raised his head and his eyes widened in disbelief.
"Grandpa, I have done nothing wrong in my business. You can..." The young man hissed, interrupting the old man's words. His tightly clenched fists were looking at each other, and the clear-cut features on his face were already distorted.
Some ferocious people are just small mercenaries. Even if they set up a despicable trap, they can't judge me..."
"Llorente just paid Baron Danfang two thousand gold coins, and the Viscount's appetite must be even greater. I have already said that everything in this world is business, because there is nothing that does not involve interests.
Relationship. Therefore, a person who has caused losses to the family is not suitable for the job of any businessman." The old man continued calmly and indifferently, with unquestionable certainty. So until you can prove your ability again, Langpi
People working in the Weng family don't need a loser who can't see clearly the crisis and can't distinguish between the pros and cons of human relationships."
…
"What a waste..."
Taking his eyes away from the huge crystal ball in front of him, Edward couldn't help but murmur to himself - the clear light and shadow in the crystal reflected the bodies of more than a hundred knights who were putting away their queue.
"Those guys in the City Guards are a little useless, aren't they? Although the other party said a lot of words, but... they didn't even have a real person with a face. They only sent a person in charge and a few understatements.
Then just send them away?" Somewhat reluctantly, he glanced at the scenery in the crystal ball again, and the latter had turned into a blur of clouds.
"Ordinary businessmen may not, but the status of the Rampion family is different. Our King, one-tenth of the tax amount is in the hands of this family. He carries the title of Lord and works in various
There is also a large amount of offerings in the temple, and his reputation is very good. The leaders of the city guards dare not offend him easily, let alone Dan Fang, a junior officer of the security knight. Such questioning is already considered a no.
Those unlucky guys in that small union must have a decent enough reputation for the Viscount, so naturally there won't be too much trouble. As long as they give up some money, it seems like a big crime, but it's just a matter of one sentence.
."
Edward twitched his lips and looked at the speaker in front of him. He seemed a little surprised that the half-elf mage, who was irritable, cold, and unreasonable when they first met, would also come up with such a rational and common-sense inference, but the latter still remained
Buried in the stacks of parchment, she didn't even give him time to look at her. She just gave him a cold reminder.
"Now that the matter has come to an end, you must have had enough rest, right? So, should you concentrate more and start the next round of attempts? Although there are still ten days, for you, I want to
To shorten the distance from the Demonic Network, I don’t think ten days is a sufficient length of time to squander.”
"Hell..., the information was all mine, but you got at least more than two thousand gold coins for handling that meeting. That Fang Dan made this deal today, you are also indispensable. Let me take a closer look and you won't know.
Sample……"
Edward shook his head and cursed in a low voice, but in the end he just closed his eyes silently and stretched out a finger...
This action was maintained for a long time, and it looked a bit ridiculous. However, as it gradually passed by, a touch of fluorescence finally condensed on the tip of the finger. It struggled, as if it was extremely unwilling, but finally separated from his fingertip.
, becoming a faint ball-like luster spinning in the air.
