Chapter 315

But accordingly, you can also enjoy the supporting services provided by Rand.

For example, logistics supply assistance, and medical stations.

Rand has a huge influence among the adventurer community in a large area around the Count of Moon Phases.

At least in the territory of Rand and surrounding areas, Rand is able to make adventurers less neutral to a certain extent.

Maybe Rand will have a chance to become a senior executive of the Adventurers Association?

New Holy City.

After a period of chaos, the New Holy City finally settled down again.

The fire that night burned down one fifth of the buildings in the New Holy City.

It also caused 95% of civilians to escape.

The new holy city was damaged, but at least it was not as severe as the old holy city collapsed.

Overall, the combat power of the New Holy City was not much lost.

But the Great Knight died.

And they have selected the new Grand Knight Chief.

This great Knight Priest is not one of all the Knight Priests in the New Holy City.

But an ordinary superior profession, Paladin.

The reason is very simple. The knights and commanders do not give in to each other and do not accept each other.

It is impossible to decide a knight leader in a short period of time.

If you really want to decide the Knight Captain, the New Holy City may have to go through a civil war.

And the current situation will definitely not allow the civil war in the New Holy City. If this is true, the prestige of the New Holy City will completely drop to the bottom and give in to the original intention of the Torch Church.

This is something that the Knights cannot accept.

And when there is no one giving in to each other and there must be a leader.

Torch Church's new holy city made a decision.

They collectively launched a prestigious, old, paladin as the Great Knight Chief.

On the night in the New Holy City, the old knight did not come to see if he could seize any treasure trove of wealth, but arranged people to put out the fire in the New Holy City.

The knights of the New Holy City also realized that they needed an experienced, thoughtful and calm leader when encountering major events.

Of course, there is another very important point. This old paladin is very old, so there is no need to worry that this old knight can't get up in the position.

When this old paladin was pushed to the position of the Great Knight, he was very confused.

Because he is also a participant in the "Jiuyang Project". Thank you! !

Chapter 392 Revisiting the old place and the preliminary discovery of the burning place (5000!!)

The 334th year of the sacred calendar.

early morning.

Rand arrived at Frost Moon King City.

This is Rand's second arrival at the royal city of the Frost Moon Kingdom.

The cold royal city stood silently in the morning light, like a giant beast.

The mist in the sky has not dissipated, and the faint morning light has fallen on the city wall like cold steel, and the tall stone walls around the royal city have reached the sky.

The guards in front of the city gate stood in the cold morning with long spears, and the armor reflected a glimmer of light, making them look like cold statues.

Rand brought his loyal guards outside the royal city.

When entering the city, you need to check as usual.

Rand got out of the carriage, and the horses of the guard stopped.

The personal guards followed Rand and had already gained great reputation. Even the gate guards of the royal city had heard some of their stories.

They stand still and bring a silent sense of oppression that makes the guards feel fearful.

The guards of the city gate naturally knew Rand's family emblem.

Last time Rand came to the royal city and wanted to enter the city, he was even slightly checked by the guards.

And this time, all the guards Rand's eyes were saluting him.

Seeing that the guards did not check, Rand did not comment and brought his personal guards into the city.

The avenues in the city are wide and straight, covered with blue-gray stone slabs, and on both sides are rows of tall and solemn stone pillars, standing like the backbone of the kingdom.

Going forward is the pillar of triumph.

Going further in, there is the towering palace.

The huge tower pierced into the sky like a sharp blade, and the outline of the building loomed in the morning mist.

The marble walls were carefully polished and shone with a cold luster, while the reliefs carved on the walls - knights, crowns, and chariots - all tell the glory and authority of the kingdom.

The wind passes through the marble columns, bringing a subtle chill.

This is the core of the Frost Moon Kingdom, where power and ambitions are intertwined, and any negligence and weakness will be ruthlessly torn and smashed between this silent stone wall.

Of course, this is not the case for Rand.

The changes in the situation brought about by the king's death are for other nobles in the country.

Rand came here to maintain the situation.

If we compare it, Rand is neither a chess player nor a piece, but a chessboard?

Rand soon met Grand Duke Thorn.

Grand Duke Thorn came to Rand to visit the royal city's mansion in person.

Rand personally pulled a seat for Grand Duke Thorn, then frowned and asked, "What the hell is going on."

"The second prince made a move." Grand Duke Jingthorn gave the answer.

"Ah?" Rand was a little unbelievable.

"I know you have a little bit of a problem, but that's what I found out."

"The Second Prince's reputation has plummeted since the Battle of the Defense Line..." Grand Duke Thorn began to explain the reason.

Rand knew about this because Rand personally arranged for someone to "escort" the second prince back to the royal city.

But then again, if Rand doesn't do this, not only will Rand be in trouble, but the second prince is also likely to be caught by the Count of the Snow Fox, and he will definitely be even more ruined by the time of the time.

He may even die in another country, or be imprisoned, and live in a foreign land for many years.

In a sense, Rand is actually the benefactor of the second prince!

Unfortunately, the second prince didn't think so.

Later, after the king realized that the second prince was a waste, he wanted to ask him to ask the King of White to join forces with all the royal families in the north to send direct troops to the front line to see if he could win the heart of which princess.

Being smarter for future generations is also the solution.

The second prince succeeded, but he was not successful himself. A small country in the Northern Union felt that he should hold his thigh in the current changing situation, and then hit it off with the King of the Frost Moon Kingdom.

Then the second prince got engaged.

But none of these matter.

The problem is that after the engagement, the second prince was completely regarded as a tool of childbirth and lost all opportunities to show his strength and realize his personal value.

He became a marginal figure who could only eat and enjoy the rich and lively mountains and rivers.

And the prince may be very, very dissatisfied with this.

But he wasn't completely hopeless.

If his half-brother, the current prince of the Frost Moon Kingdom, succeeded to the throne, his status would not be much lower in the future, and he would have a good chance of becoming a royal minister in the future.

After all, close enough.

But if the third prince succeeds to the throne, there is really no chance.

And the current king of Frost Moon Kingdom has not completely decided on the heir.

"The second prince killed his father? It wouldn't be so stupid, right?" Rand was puzzled. He wouldn't be so crazy. Even as stupid as a pig, he could realize that if the king of the Frost Moon Kingdom died, the Frost Moon Kingdom might have happened. What……

"This is the result of my investigation at the moment." Grand Duke Thorn was obviously helpless.

Grand Duke Thorn spread his hands again: "I am the first person to try to control the scene. I have only shared the result with you. The eldest prince and the third prince are not aware of it. What are you going to do?"

Rand rolled his eyes: "His Grand Duke, please make your own decision, I will follow you."

Rand has no tendency to succeed to any king, because he is not familiar with the eldest prince and the third prince, and at least at present, both of them are quite capable.

As long as it is not the Second Prince who comes to power, it is nothing for Rand.

And for Grand Duke Thorn, the same is true.

In a sense, the interests of the most powerful and most promising nobles in the Frost Moon Kingdom are largely consistent.

Seeing that Rand didn't want to make a decision, Grand Duke Thorn had no choice but to say helplessly: "It's time to choose one, if you drag on it, something will happen."

Rand rolled his eyes again and looked at the dark green eyes of Grand Duke Thorn.

When you reach the age of Grand Duke Thorn, your eyes will often become a little cloudy, except Grand Duke Thorn.

Clear and sharp, these eyes are as beautiful as his aunt and his daughter, which seems to be the influence of the royal blood of the Frost Moon Kingdom.

The royal family of the Frost Moon Kingdom and the Thorns family have been married for generations.

In a sense, Grand Duke Thorn himself is also considered the king's brother.

It can also be considered as having the inheritance rights of the Frost Moon Kingdom, but it is very far behind.

For these reasons, Rand actually doubted what the Grand Duke of Thorns said.

Was it really the second prince assassinated the king, or was it the command of the eldest prince, or the conspiracy of the third prince, or the plan of the Grand Duke of Thorns himself?

"Then you choose." Rand didn't intend to speak, "I will be consistent with you."

However, Rand is still ready to keep an agreement with Grand Duke Thorns first.

Now in the Frost Moon Kingdom, Mingpai supports the power of the Big Prince and the Third Prince, and its strength is similar.

Rand and the Grand Duke of Thorns can give this side a great advantage as long as they tend to favor one side.

It can be said that as long as Rand and Grand Duke Thorns do not stand separately, as long as it is not Grand Duke Thorns himself who wants to ascend the throne, the king of the Frost Moon Kingdom will be decided by them.

"Then is the eldest prince?" The Grand Duke of Thorns certainly knew what role Rand played in the incident of the king's death.

Therefore, seeing that Rand did not make a decision, he did not continue to be shy and spoke.

"Then it's the big prince." Rand nodded.

Then the next thing to do is very simple. Suppress the information of the second prince's assassination of the king, declare to the public that the king died suddenly after overwork, and then follow the inheritance law to ensure that the eldest prince inherits the throne normally.

As for whether the second prince will cause any storm after the eldest prince inherits the throne?

Rand's comment is that the second prince is really not worthy of appearing in his sight now. After the eldest prince ascended the throne, the second prince will be completely under house arrest and even simply imprisoned, regardless of whether the king's death this time is like a thorn. What the Grand Duke said was done by the Second Prince.

Grand Duke Thorns and Rand, and perhaps the Earl of the Bucks and the Black Brown Marquis that will appear in the future, will become the most powerful political force in the country and will be far stronger than the king's political force.

...

The royal city was undercurrent for several days.

In the past few days, Rand and Thorns cooperated with each other.

Rand is responsible for maintaining the superficial stability of the royal city.

Whether it is day or night.

Rand forbids all nobles in the royal city to hold banquets or gatherings.

And maintain the public order of the royal city and avoid any secret actions.

As for why Rand can do this.
