The Righteous Player(s)

——A great-level curse.

　　 There are only six treasures left in this world, a great thing that is far more powerful than the name of the gods, just like the name itself.

　　 Just knowing its name is equivalent to a part of the ceremony.

　　 The current distribution of great-level curses is one each for Noah, Winter, and Denisoya, and two for the Sect. One piece is still sunk in the seabed of the Maelstrom... It is said that the wise men of the underground world are also trying to salvage it.

　　 It can even be said that the current several countries are all relying on the great-level curse to be able to rebuild after the disaster. If they hadn't mastered the great-level curse, there would be no gods who would choose to rebuild the enchantment with them as the center.

　　——It is precisely because the great-level curse cannot be lost. Theocratic power reached a certain degree of compromise with the reborn kingship.

　　 And this great-level curse held by Winter...

　　 is the tricolor scepter that Ivan has always used as a crutch?

　　 At first, he thought that this was a proof of the power of the Principality of Winter... He didn't expect it to be true, but it was a little different from what he thought.

　　Annan couldn't help but examine the appearance of this scepter.

　　It is composed of three colors of silver, black, and dark blue, intertwined like hard vines. At the bottom end, the three colors untie each other and protrude in three directions, as if forming a non-slip bracket.

　　 forms a structure similar to a handrail at the top end—consisting of silver rings, black crosses inlaid with each other, and an eight-sided dark blue huge gemstone in the middle of the whole pattern.

　　 Usually when Ivan wants to stand up, he will put his hand in the middle of the circle and hold the upper part of the cross. When he is standing, he puts his hands on the ring, as if holding a steering wheel.

　　 This makes Ivan stand steady.

　　 It's better to say, because its function as a "crutch" is too perfect, so Annan did not doubt whether it has other uses...

　　 "...But it's too dangerous, right?"

　　Annan still couldn't help but said, "I remember that other Winter's Hands touched it. If the news leaks, what should I do if the tricolor scepter is stolen?"

　　 "It is precisely because no one can trust it to hold it in the hand; it is precisely because it is not safe to hide it anywhere, and it should be placed in the sun."

　　 Ivan said slowly, taking a deep look at Annan: "It is precisely because the Grand Duke and the scepter are not to be lost, that they are used as a sign of the power of the Grand Duke-so there is no need to consider the consequences of accidental loss of one of them."

　　 is obviously different from other countries.

　　凛冬 is here to highlight a "few people".

Noah is a dinner in the palace, and there are more than two hundred people attending it; Denizoa and the United Kingdom of the Field Islands have even more-only the royal family members who live in the palace for a long time, including the harem, servants and eunuchs There are more than 300 people.

　　 And look back at the Principality of Winter.

　　 At present, there are only so few people in the Grand Duke's Mansion in Winter. Ivan no longer has a wife, and he has no elders—the only child at home is Annan.

　　 In addition to the two of them, there are a total of four people. All are the leaders of Winter's Hand... There were only six leaders now, and two of them were not at home.

Yes it is.

　　 In the Principality of Winter, there are no servants to serve the Grand Duke. That's why a separate department was pulled from Winter's hand to handle the Dagong's internal affairs.

　　 This aspect is because the Principality of Winter Winter lacks everything-you know, one of the duties of Winter Hand is to monitor the local nobles so that they don't waste too much; and in order to achieve this goal logically, the Grand Duke must also lead by example.

　　 On the other hand, it is also responsible for their lives. If attacked, Winter's Hand may be able to protect the Grand Duke, but it is impossible to ask them to protect the servants.

　　Although it has the surveillance of Winter's Hand, and the existence of Winter's blood is very important to suppress the Frost Beast, in theory, the Winter Principality should be the most firmly ruled duchy. But in fact, Duke Winterfell and his direct descendants have been attacked the most times among the leaders of various countries...none of them.

　　 This wonderful phenomenon has also attracted the attention of scholars from other countries.

　　 According to the results of a sociologist, this should be related to the "winter year" mechanism.

　　Because in the winter, the people of Winter must rely on the protection of the small enchantment to avoid being frozen to death by the cold wind... This leads to the people of Winter relying mainly on city-state life. As the connection between the city and the city becomes loose, ordinary people's awe of the blood of Winter and the laws of the principality will drop sharply.

　　 was replaced by the direct control of the local nobles and various fancy methods. The Grand Duke's own ability to monitor and control local nobles will actually be weakened.

　　 But ordinary people don't care about this-dissatisfaction with the extravagant, reckless local aristocrats will eventually radiate directly to the Duke. This is related to the local aristocrats who consciously attracted people's attention and hatred to the "Hands of Winter" who actually supervised them.

　　 The merits of Grand Duke Ivan are undeniable. But the nobles still have other tricks.

　　 There is a saying that Winter's Hand has clamped down the channels for the Grand Duke to obtain information, just like the Kingdom of Denisoa under the power of the eunuch-but this argument needs to be understood by people with a little bit of culture.

　　 Another more common saying is to push the pot to the fact that Grand Duke Ivan is not in good health.

　　 Why do you pay so much tax, because you have to spend a lot of resources to hang the Lord; why the Hand of Winter or the nobles act recklessly, because the Lord is not in good health, so you can't leave Frost Language Province.

　　This has led to Grand Duke Winter Winter, who is often attacked by people of various types.

　　 Of course, there are actually very few "Avengers" who are completely mindless.

　　 Most of the attackers knew that Ivan must be protected by Winter's Hand.

　　 They all hope to achieve their goals by kidnapping the grand duke’s heirs, wives or other relatives.

Either it is a request for the release of a certain important political prisoner (usually a spy from another country or a connection with the icebreaker); there are also some whimsical people who are asking the Grand Duke to pass a certain law or several laws; and some, yes I hope the Grand Duke can punish some local nobles. Of course, their kidnapping is almost impossible to succeed.

　　 But there are some smarter ones who will directly assassinate the Grand Duke in the name of some local nobles. I hope that the Grand Duke will retaliate against a certain nobleman after finding out.

　　 This is also the reason why the Northland Alliance assassinated Annan, but Annan still needs to check it carefully.

　　 Annan and Ivan don’t want to be used as guns—you have to find out before you can do it. Because in the history of Winter, there have indeed been such incidents that framed political opponents.

　　 In addition, it is also necessary to prevent the possibility of being poisoned by spies from other countries in the diet, or the possibility of servants being bought, eavesdropping on intelligence to steal important documents. For the Principality of Winter, which can be said to be a "poor country", it is not too simple for people with the status of "servant" to be bought.

　　 Even if they are both countries protected by the righteous gods, this does not mean that the relationship between countries will be very good.

　　 Regardless of the border friction, simply a completely different cultural atmosphere will lead to a lack of communication between them.

　　 In addition, the previous generation of King Noah-the one who claimed to unify the five nations and rebuild the Great Enchantment.

Although Annan knew that, in fact, this was because he was a "child in the cup" whose lifespan was locked by people, so he deliberately planned to use this method to make enemies for Noah and avenge the kingdom of Noah that gave birth to him... But other countries The people and high-level officials don't know.

As a result, the revenge of the boy in the cup not only hurt Noah, but also directly disturbed the muddy waters-his declaring war on Winter, in the opposite direction made Denisoya and the church country vigilant, and had to initiate Arms race.

　　 And after the strength of the church country and the United Kingdom of Denisoya increased, Rin Dong also had to remain vigilant towards them.

　　The result is that the peace that could be maintained after the **** battle is over is now becoming more and more faltering.

　　 plus the thing about the Winter Defenders also reminded the Rin Dong family-even if it is the hand of Winter, who holds the curse like a bird in a cage, it is completely unable to defy the order of the Duke of Winter, it cannot be absolutely trusted.

　　 The result is ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Grand Duke Ivan, not only has to find a way to lead all the people through the difficult winter.

　　 He also had to do his best to maintain a diplomatic deterrent, internally suppress the rebellious Northland Noble Alliance, and make friends with several extraordinary nobles in the South.

　　 In addition, there is also the mess left by the Icebreakers and the Winter Adversaries-there are always people in the Frost Beast Army who are restless, and some time ago, a very important Frost Beast was lost. It is suspected that someone is still doing the Frost Beast experiment.

　　 And looking back, Annan was assassinated again...According to Annan's feedback, it seems that it is not just the forces that hope to take Dmitry off. If the blood of "Gryanznuha Winter" is found, the situation is even more complicated.

　　 In what way did the Adversaries of Winter break the curse of "Hand of Winter" and take the other Hand of Winter out of the control of the Grand Duke, they still don't know.

　　 In this case, the tax withheld by the local aristocracy and the wanton and reckless behavior of the "local methods" are already the simplest state of affairs.

　　——It's all Diao Min.

　　 And with so many troubles together, Ivan's body can't hold it anymore.

　　 "...The situation facing Winter is very complicated. Fortunately, you are back."

　　 Ivan slowly said, "I must first give you the position of the Grand Duke and the curse. Then I can conduct some investigations... and actions as I thought.

　　 "Come with me, Annan. I will teach you how to use the power of the scepter."
