It turned out to be her!

For a moment, Leo felt enlightened and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. No wonder such a lady had such a terrifying guard. He had no idea that there was a female upper-class noble or a direct female descendant of a big noble in the kingdom.

Arrive at the small town of Bulma without any fanfare.

If it were her, everything would seem to make sense.

At this time, Freya and Lion Knight Old Doug were still somewhat wary. They did not know the woman in front of them. They only knew that the guards around her were not easy to mess with, but they were also somewhat relaxed.

, that is, the guards of this group are not like their leader.

At the very least, in their perception, these guards were not invincible. Suddenly, Old Doug also frowned slightly. He felt a strong sense of discipline among these people.

It seems that these people in front of me have extremely strict dogmas. Each of them has undergone strict and systematic training, and has their own beliefs, which cannot be possessed by ordinary organizations. These people should be knights of the Knights!

etc……

Old Doug seemed to notice something again. There was a huge weapon wrapped in black cloth next to it. Although it was wrapped in black cloth, Old Doug could vaguely tell that this weapon should be a giant silver-plated broadsword!

This is the weapon commonly used by the Lion Knights. With their silver-plated giant broadswords, the Lion Knights are quite terrifying on the battlefield. The entire Lion Knights can be regarded as one of the top knights in the mainland.

Could it be that he was really from the Kingdom? Old Doug was a little confused.

But Old Doug was surprised by the aura of these people. These people were definitely not Lion Knights. Is it possible?

Old Doug looked around subconsciously. Sure enough, some of the guards looked very slim. Because their faces were covered, they didn't even notice their gender for a moment. At a glance, there were actually women among these guards!

A turmoil arose in Old Doug's heart. He seemed to have guessed the identities of the people in front of him, and his hand had secretly moved towards the weapon.

"Dear Your Majesty the Queen," Leo said politely, "Welcome to the town of Bulma, and I would like to express my greetings to you on behalf of the lord here, Count Luvent."

Queen Ursula!

Although not many people have seen the face of the Queen, but what is Leo's identity? When he was a patrol envoy, he naturally saw the portrait of the Queen of Crowland!

To be precise, the loser in the power struggle in Ravenland is Queen Ursula, who was driven out of the kingdom by her biological brother Gregory IV. Although according to their own claims, this Queen Ursula is the legitimate one in the kingdom.

.

As for the powerful men around the Queen, they are naturally the Falcon Knights who followed the Queen and were outlawed by Gregory IV!

Of course, Leo directly recognized the identity of Queen Ursula, which obviously made the Queen slightly surprised. Not many people should have seen her, and they should not meet her here. Of course, Queen Ursula also kept a straight face.

smile.

"Are you from the Luwente family?" Queen Ursula was not stupid. She glanced at the terrifying powerful men around Leo with doubts. "As far as I know, although Earl Luwente is from the Kingdom of the Lion Realm,

Middle and upper class aristocrats.

But you shouldn’t have such terrifying strength as you, and given your age, you are even less likely to be Count Luvent himself, so who are you?”

Queen Ursula seems to be a little rude, but Leo doesn't mind. This is the opponent's confidence. As the royal bloodline of the most powerful country on the continent of Pendor, there is even a woman who is declared to be truly qualified to inherit the throne of the Kingdom of Raven Realm.

Her status is too noble. Even though she is in exile, she still has her noble status. This is an inherent honor, the inheritance of the Gregory family, not to mention the fact that she has the backing of the Falcon Knights.

And many lords of the Kingdom of Crowland are secretly supporting it.

Especially in places like Dark Falcon Castle, the Falcon Knights' auditorium has even been built! This is enough to show the huge power behind these exiled nobles. In Pendor, the noble background is really deep.

"Your Majesty the Queen, this is the Earl of Luvent," Leo said with a smile, "and I am the friend and guest of Earl of Luvent, Leo Archimonde."

What!

Queen Ursula's expression changed obviously, and the tall knight was even more shocked. "It turns out to be Marquis Archimonde." Queen Ursula's attitude also seemed to be much closer, "

I've heard rumors about you.

Being able to meet you here today is something worth celebrating."

"Dear Her Majesty the Queen, I would like to take the liberty to ask you, is there any place in our territory of the Lion Realm Kingdom where I can serve you?" Leo finally asked what was in his mind.

"Dear Marquis Leo, you should understand that Gregory IV, who sits on the throne of Crowland, is a shameless usurper.

And the real king of the Kingdom of Crowland should be me." Queen Ursula looked at Leo in front of her and said with great pride.

"I'm sorry, dear queen," Leo maintained the proper etiquette, "This is an internal matter within the Kingdom of Crowland.

The Archimonde family is the lord of the Lion Realm Kingdom and serves the Silver Throne. I don’t think I am suitable to intervene in the affairs of the Raven Realm Kingdom.”

Although Mrs. Ursula didn't finish what she said, Leo had vaguely guessed the other party's request, but he took the lead in blocking the other party's possible request for help. Just kidding, that was Gregory IV, one of the top five men in Pendor.

Big shot.

Helping Queen Ursula was tantamount to making an enemy of Gregory IV. He still didn't want to mess with this big shot.

"Then..." Queen Ursula's eyes flashed with a hint of amusement, "What if I say that I have clues to the treasure that the Marquis is looking for?"

Um?

Leo frowned slightly, he didn't seem to understand what Queen Ursula was saying.

"It's the treasure you were publicly looking for before," Queen Ursula couldn't help but chuckle and gave another hint.

treasure?

Leo still lacked some clues. The next moment, he seemed to think of something, the key! Yes, only that key was found through the official channels of the Marquis Territory.

"Your Majesty the Queen, is that treasure in your hands?" Leo didn't try to hide it. The Marquis issued a huge reward. If he insisted that this was an ordinary thing, he would be looking down on everyone's intelligence.

"Although it's not in my hands, I know where it's going," Queen Ursula said with a frown.

"Then I'm sorry," Leo said with a hint of smile, "Of course, if you can tell me the clues, I will also reward you generously."

"You..." Queen Ursula was a little annoyed. After all, her status was really good. She was so humble, but Leo in front of her seemed to be unscrupulous, and her guard was written on her face.

"Okay, I can give you clues to the treasure, but you must promise me that if there is a chance in the future, when I go to war with Gregory, you must stand on my side, even if it is secretly, you must provide me with

I will do my best to help." Queen Ursula's eyes had put away all the fun at this time, and she looked at Leo in front of her with a serious face.

Sure enough...

Leo chuckled in his heart. He also guessed what Queen Ursula meant. After all, although the current Queen Ursula has the reputation of being a restorer, the actual power in her hands is far behind that of Gregory.

many.

Although the king of the North has disputes over his access to the throne, one thing that cannot be avoided is that he has the powerful power in his hands and the loyalty of many lords of the Crow Kingdom.

Therefore, Mrs. Ursula, who is in exile, must find enough allies. One day, she can really go to war with Gregory IV and make sufficient preparations to make her, Mrs. Ursula, more worthy of Ursula.

Queen's title.

"If we can ensure the interests of the Marquis Territory, I will be happy to support you in regaining the Crow Realm Scepter and becoming the master of the Crow Realm Kingdom." Leo said implicitly,

"Of course, all this is based on your ability to help me find the treasure I need."

"That's natural," Ursula nodded, without much objection, "Do you know, Grand Duke Romy?"

Grand Duke Romy?

"Is he the one from Brown Principality?" Leo was stunned for a moment, then seemed to realize something, "You mean, he has that crystal in his hand?"

"Not bad," Ursula said with a smile, "How about this news?"

"Are you...sure?" Leo was a little wary. Grand Duke Romy was the Grand Duke of the Brown Principality. Unlike the Principality of Isha, all the Grand Dukes of Romy had always been responsible for their duties, even if they were particularly powerful.

He never proclaimed himself king publicly.

Therefore, the Principality of Brown is still the Principality of Brown, and Grand Duke Romy has never been called King Brown.

Maybe... they don't have the natural geographical advantages of the Principality of Isha, and there are no four barriers. If they rashly claim the king, and they are adjacent to the Kingdom of Crows and the Kingdom of the Lion, if they rashly claim the king, they are likely to be attacked by the two forces.

.

Although the Kingdom of Crows and the Kingdom of Lion are enemies, this does not prevent them from tacitly working together to punish those who dare to claim the throne in order to maintain the common dignity of the Pendor royal family.

But there is one thing that cannot be ignored in any case, that is, Archduke Romy has terrifying strength. However, Leo is still a little wary, because Archduke Romy, the grand duke of the Brown Duchy, is on friendly terms with Gregory.

OK.

This is a heavyweight who supports Gregory's throne to the letter. Does Queen Ursula really know the news for sure, or is she just trying to set him up against Gregory IV?

For a moment, Leo showed deep distrust.

"Just two years ago, at the coming-of-age ceremony for Grand Duke Romy's youngest son, Urt, Grand Duke Romy gave the treasure you were looking for, a transparent crystal, to Urt as an adult gift.

There must be many people who have witnessed this matter, and you, Marquis Leo, are also powerful. I think I have clues and can get the exact news." Queen Ursula smiled lightly, with deep pride hidden in her eyes.

This was a conspiracy. Leo spent a lot of money to find the crystal, so naturally he would not give it up easily. In this case, he would inevitably confront Grand Duke Luo Mi directly, so she didn't care at all that this news would not get her satisfactory reward.

When Leo knew this news, he would inevitably confront Grand Duke Romy. After all, Grand Duke Romy loved his youngest son the most, and the father's gift at the coming-of-age ceremony had a special meaning. Leo would never be able to obtain it through peaceful means.

…

Walking in the night, Leo only felt that he was under a lot of pressure. He never thought that he would get such a result after going out. Although he was not an enemy, he was thankful, but the whereabouts of the crystal made him even more entangled.

Earth, wind, water, and fire are the four major magic elements, corresponding to four keys. If the prediction is correct, the key should be the wind element crystal. If you find it, you will be one step closer to activating the magic circle.

But... Grand Duke Luomi...

Leo fell into deep helplessness.

"Dear Lord Marquis," Dalst said, looking at Leo walking out, he felt relaxed for a while. Fortunately, the best situation did not happen. These people did not fight directly after all. He even let out a long sigh of relief for a while.

"Thank you for your help, Dalst. It's just that I have some urgent matters and need to return to the Marquis. Since Count Luvent has agreed to my request, I will fulfill my promise tonight." Leo said.

"Return? Are you in such a hurry..." For a moment, Dalst was stunned. This Lord Marquis was really resolute.

"Yes," Leo nodded. The news about the crystal was more important than anything else. He must return to the Marquis Territory as soon as possible, combine all his sources of information, and combine it with the current strength of the Marquis Territory to make further decisions.

Although he is here now, the Marquis will still send all kinds of news to him, waiting for his decision, but it is too concise after all.

"I will withdraw most of my team from Llanno Racecourse in the next three days, and then both parties will be jointly responsible for Llanno Racecourse.

And the Karl Fortress that I promised you will be completed tonight." Leo said very proudly, "Now, you can go and inform the Earl."

Dalst naturally accepted the order and left. Although he was very curious about how Leo could build the prototype of a fortress overnight, it was obvious that Leo would not be willing to tell him this secret.

That night, a huge team surrounded the entire Karl Mountain Range, and in the early morning of the next morning, a simple prototype of a fortress was already standing on the Karl Mountain Range. This fortress was built on a semi-sloping mountainside in a dangerous terrain.

The terrain on both sides is difficult, and only a few moderately wide mountain roads are passable. Of course, with further needs in the future, the mountain roads can be further widened.

It's just that such a fortress is tantamount to an insurmountable boundary for Jatu. The momentum of Jatu's war horses will be largely offset by the mountain terrain, losing most of its combat effectiveness. And the Karl Fortress
Chapter completed!
