Great Nobleman

Because the palace guards outside were a bit loud.

So Brand and Catherine also knew from their shouts that King Cardin was also in the main building.

Despite this, they did not go looking for it.

After all, it is a thankless task.

Castles are one of the few things Brand has learned about on his own initiative.

In the Farnes continent, a large castle of this size would have a complicated internal structure that would make people get lost if they were not careful.

Not to mention that the king can find a hidden room to hide.

Brand also has no doubt that the castle is filled with various underground passages.

The other party has most likely left the main building now.

Don't look at the palace guards outside who were very excited, as if their king was going to be killed by him.

If you look closely, you will find that the people rushing over now are ordinary guards from above.

The leaders of these guards and the two great knights who appeared before are now standing still.

——Even if they had entered the main building of the castle where the king was, they didn't think they could find King Cardan at all.

so.

Rather than looking for the king, the more serious thing is to put the "Flaming Bed Crossbow" in your bag!

After briefly looking at the bed crossbow, Brand and Catherine began to remove the base connecting the bed crossbow to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Catherine took out the "big animal skin bag" with nearly a hundred cubic meters of space that she had obtained in the north.

Before taking action today, the reason why I specifically asked Catherine to free up the space in the big animal skin bag.

That’s for this moment!

Watching the "Flaming Bed Crossbow" in front of her be pocketed by Catherine.

Brand couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

Immediately afterwards, he propped up the concealment barrier again, stretched his head and glanced at the many guards on the next floor who were waiting in formation at the entrance of the stairs.

Then he looked outside at the dissipated development dust mist.

After thinking for a moment, Brand used the wind elemental magic force field to fly Catherine out of the previous gap and go to the next sentry tower.

When the guards of Kadan Palace plucked up the courage to rush to the top of the sentry tower, they found that they had left with their bed crossbows.

Brand and Catherine had already come out of another guard tower and started heading to a new guard tower.

What is expected is:

The ordnance of other sentry towers is inferior to the "Flaming Giant Crossbow" of the big sentry tower.

Of course, Brand didn't dislike it.

After all, many of the ordnances in these castle towers are more advanced than the magic crossbows.

From his perspective as a master of rune formations, these weapons can at least release attacks and auxiliary means at a level comparable to elementary sublimation spells.

——They are all high-end goods that are priceless and cannot be bought with magic gold coins!

The only thing that dissatisfied him was the size of these weapons.

——Even if it is an "animal skin bag", the space inside is limited!

When another piece of ordnance was loaded, Catherine gave him a helpless look.

Brand knew the operation was over.

At this time, the guards of the palace have also discovered that the window sills of many watchtowers have gaps, and the guards in the watchtowers have also made no sound.

However, due to lack of strength, they did not take any action.

——They are gathering their strength and waiting for the support of the legion that will enter the city later.

After flying silently in the sky of the castle, he carefully checked the current situation in Cardan Palace.

Brand took Catherine all the way away from here.

…

Early the next morning, a piece of shocking news was placed on the papers of the major forces in the Cardan Kingdom:

Cardan Palace is attacked by mysterious people!

The entrance to the palace's outer wall was razed to the ground, the castle's defensive barrier was destroyed, and the whereabouts of many high-end ordnance are unknown!

at last!

The mysterious man left Cardan Palace safe and sound!

“The ordnance of Kadan Palace is indeed valuable.

But being able to come and go freely in such a heavily guarded place.

Such a strong man can never be just for those bulky ordnance! "

"If you think about it, you will know that they must be going for the king!

Perhaps because they couldn't find the king, they had no choice but to take away the weapons and recover the losses. "

"what a pity!

I heard that the strong man last night had an extremely powerful concealment method so that he could come and go freely in the palace.

Next, the Cardin royal family will definitely make targeted arrangements.

If you fail to achieve success this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get another chance next time! "

"You are thinking too conservatively!

You only live once, and in Cardan's chaotic situation, the king's safety is extremely important.

It is absolutely impossible for the Cardan royal family to just arrange the concealment methods of that powerful man.

I have received news here that the major legions under the royal family of Cardan are retreating towards the capital of the royal family of Cardan.

The entire Kadan King's Capital has been placed under martial law, and the City Guards are cooperating with the Cardan Royal Family's legion to investigate everyone in the King's Capital!

This is just what we know. In places we don’t know, the Cardin royal family must have made more preparations! "

At this time, the Council Hall of Kadan Palace.

King Ariel Maddox of the Kingdom of Cardan is reviewing government affairs.

The strength of the attackers last night really surprised him.

But that’s about it.

As long as it's not the empire's high-level armed forces such as the Knights and the Mages.

Or the most powerful ones like the Grand Mage and the Champion Knight.

It's hard to threaten his life.

Everything in the Cardan Kingdom can go on smoothly!

While thinking about it.

His Foreign Secretary entered the State Office.

After greeting him and saluting.

The minister said with an ugly expression:

“Your Majesty, the Bruns Empire has agreed to our request.

Next, a group of knights stationed around Buxton will go north to station in the royal capital.

Accordingly, in addition to paying a certain amount of remuneration, we also need to bear the supplies of many Bruns Empire legions in the Moraiton Desert. "

Hearing this, Ariel nodded, and then reminded:

“Don’t hold any grudge against the Bruns Empire.

It's just a few magic gold coins, don't take it seriously.

Even the Bruns Empire allows us to use magic gold coins to hire knights, which is a big advantage for us! "

Upon hearing this, the minister frowned slightly and said:

"Your Majesty, the strong man last night was obviously an outsider.

We in the Cardan Kingdom do not have such a powerful person, and we are not worthy of being coveted by such a strong person!

The reason why he attacked the palace was probably because he wanted to threaten His Majesty's safety, overthrow our Cardan royal family, and then use it to hijack the Bruns Empire.

Our Cardan Kingdom has been implicated by the Bruns Empire! "

Ariel shook his head and said:

“Since many years ago, the power of our Cardan royal family alone has been insufficient to overwhelm many nobles in the country.

This is also the most important reason why our royal family chose to invest in the Bruns Empire.

Without the support of the Bruns Empire over the years, we might have been ignored by the nobles or even overthrown.

We have received their help and benefited so much.

Of course, we have to face all the dangers that come with it!

As long as you survive this difficult period of time, everything will be worth it! "
