Lord of the North

"My lord, I'm back."

Not long after, the man in black who had been watching Reigns and Sheila suddenly appeared in an ordinary manor in the east of the Ludian King City. He saluted the old man who was sitting beside a man-made lake fishing.

"Oh... let these fish escape again..."

The old man sighed, and said helplessly, then looked behind him quietly, the fish near the hook were frightened when the man in black opened his mouth just now, and they ran away in a hurry.

"The subordinate is guilty."

The man in black had no expression on his face, and apologized, but judging from his appearance, the old man didn't feel that he knew what he did wrong at all.

"Let's talk about the tasks entrusted to you first, how are you doing now?" the old man shook his head and said in a rather helpless tone.

"After the strong elf man escaped from Raines' pursuit, he turned around and returned to the forest again, and Raines didn't expect that the strong elf man would be so bold. Raines As soon as she left the forest, she immediately ran back."

When the man in black said this, there was a slight fluctuation in his always calm voice, as if he was holding back a laugh.

"These alien races are really bold enough." Hearing this, the old man smacked his lips and said in disbelief.

"Do you think that if we come to the rescue at this time, will that strong elf clan be used by us?" He frowned slightly, and said after thinking about it.

"Perhaps we can use the enmity between her and Raines to make some troubles for His Majesty Emperor Ludian, but it is not so easy to subdue this strong man in the sky."

The man in black pondered for a while, shook his head and denied the old man's thoughts, and even emphasized the words "the strong man in the sky". After all, although their secret alliance is strong enough, it is still impossible to drive the strong man in the sky one thing.

"what a shame."

The old man sighed: "His Royal Highness Jerome will return soon, but we courtiers cannot provide him with a safe environment. This old man is ashamed of the late emperor."

When the old man said this, he did not suppress his emotions at all. He had tears in his eyes and growled angrily.

I am not afraid of the horror and turmoil that my words will cause if they are passed to the ears of Emperor Ludian, because this is the Gordon family, and the old man's name is Sweet Gordon, the patriarch of the Gordon family, One of the three remaining dukes of the Ludian Empire.

He was the commander-in-chief of the 500,000 troops in the south of the Gulaier Empire. Even if he was resigned now, Emperor Ludian would not dare to take action against him.

Because as long as he is there, it is a deterrent and a sign to the remnants of the former Gulaier Empire. As long as he does not speak, those people will not rebel.

And the Gordon family's manor was heavily guarded, and unless Rains came in person, no one would dare to lurk in, otherwise they must be the ones who died.

That's why Duke Sweet Gordon roared in a low voice with confidence, because his identity was a talisman, facing the Ludian Empire with internal and external troubles, he would never attack him because of some pretentious things.

But what Emperor Ludian didn't expect was that Duke Gordon, one of the only three remaining dukes in the empire, was actually one of the leaders and initiators of the rebel army.

Because his title was only a hereditary marquis when the Gulaier royal family was in power, it stands to reason that he should be more inclined to the Ludian Empire.

"Lopez's Royal Highness Jason is not an easy person to get along with. Recently, the forces under his command have become more and more secretive in their actions in Ludian. I'm afraid it will become some trouble in the future."

The man in black said with some concern that although Jason's people helped them get in touch with the last bloodline of the Gulaier royal family, he always felt that Jason's purpose was not simple, not as simple as just supporting an ordinary ally.

But Black Crow's acting style is weird,

His whereabouts are uncertain, and he can't see anything wrong.

Duke Gordon was silent for a while, and finally he frowned and said: "No matter what that person is planning, the northern part of the Lopez Kingdom is no longer safe, we must find a way to bring His Royal Highness Jerome to us. within the sphere of influence."

The situation on Jason's side seemed to them to be a near-death situation, and he didn't want the last hope of the Gulaier royal family to be ruined in Jason's hands.

So he desperately wants to bring Jerome back. At the same time, he also has other plans. For example, with Jerome's support, he may have a higher status in the Restoration Party, and no one will dislike him. The status is too high or the power is too great, and so is Duke Gordon.

Although he is one of the three dukes of the empire, the power in his hands has been compressed to an extreme, which is why he is dissatisfied with the Ludian Empire.

"If His Highness is brought to Ludian, perhaps his situation will be even more dangerous. His Majesty the Emperor Ludian had already known about His Highness's existence a long time ago, but because His Highness is in Lopez, he is a little out of reach. It keeps attracting but not sending out." The man in black retorted calmly at this time.

"Then tell me, what should we do?"

This can’t work, that can’t work, the old duke is finally a little annoyed, he is now in the Ludian Imperial City, to put it mildly, he is staying in the power center of the empire, and to put it mildly, he is actually being monitored in a disguised form.

This made him feel constrained and uncomfortable.

"Let the subordinates talk to that strong elf first." The man in black replied.

"Will it be too dangerous?" The old duke said with a slightly dignified tone. The relationship between the elves and humans can be said to be very bad. He was worried that something might happen to his capable subordinate.

"In a head-to-head confrontation, I am indeed not an opponent of those strong men in the sky, but if it is compared to running for life and lurking, the two Reigns are not my opponent either."

The calm tone of the man in black was full of confidence, and the mention of Raines' name did not have the slightest sense of respect.

"You can't just leave there immediately. Your safety is the most important thing. Be careful. Go."

The old prince was silent, and finally waved his hand and said.

"The subordinate will leave."

After speaking, the man in black quietly retreated, as if he had never appeared before.

After he left, Duke Gordon stood on the spot distracted for a long time. When he finally came back to his senses, he gave a wry smile and said with a self-deprecating: "I'm too old to accept my old age. It seems that this time I really want to take this Old bones are built in."

In fact, he is not very sure about the restoration of the country, all he wants is peace of mind.

If Jerome hadn't shown up, perhaps their National Restoration Organization was just a group of political interests.
