Yes, he did make a mistake now and killed the empire's precious demigod, but that was only now. Before that, he was conscientious and made no mistakes!
Why did someone else grab the big cake right after he left? ?
At the same time, because he was too angry, the half-blind young man, who had already suffered internal injuries from a kick by Weirdani, vomited a large amount of blood after a burst of anger.
His remaining subordinates were frantically trying to stop the bleeding and treat the patient, while he himself was extremely puzzled and said:
"We don't know much about this matter either. We only know that two people suddenly came from the headquarters, and one of them was an old man holding the emperor's handwritten order."
"The handwritten order clearly states that from this moment on, all matters concerning the chess pieces will be handed over to them. It also tells us to return to our respective positions immediately after we pick you up, and be ready to cooperate with the imperial army at any time."
"Are you sure it's true? Ahem!"
"It's confirmed. It's really the Emperor's order!"
Seeing that he was so sure, the half-blind young man finally accepted this fatal reality.
Then there is the regretful look to the sky:
"Call the messenger from the spirit world. I want to personally write to His Majesty the Emperor."
The subordinate asked with some surprise:
"Are you trying to take back the chess piece?"
The half-blind young man smiled sadly and said:
"It's an apology!"
"ah?!"
It was at this time that they belatedly noticed that the leader, who had brought a large group of brothers with him, not only came back alone, but also had serious internal injuries.
-
On the other side, in the White Castle, many northern lords who had been deprived of their power and territory by the Queen gathered together.
In addition, further outside the White Castle, new northern lords continued to rush here.
All of this was because they received a secret message from the lion Gawain - the rose was blooming.
The rose was once the family emblem of the Lang family, but later it withered along with the decline of the Lang family. It is needless to say what the blooming rose means at this moment.
Therefore, all the northern princes who were able to arrive rushed over at the first possible moment.
In the rooftop garden of White Castle.
A black-haired young man sat rather uncomfortably in a seat slightly below the main seat. Even if it was just a seat placed under the throne, with his thin body, it seemed that he could not bear the responsibility of being a representative.
Behind him was a kind-looking old man and an expressionless burly man.
Below him were many northern lords, led by the lion Gawain. At this moment, they were all looking at the young man on the stage with either surprise or joy.
Is that the last descendant of the Wolf family
93 The Stormy North (4k)
Soon, an old official from the Northern Territory stood up and asked the Lion Gawain:
"Gawain, how can you be sure that he is the last descendant of the Wolf family?"
As soon as these words were spoken, many of the old ministers present nodded in agreement.
In the three hundred years after Cromwell's death, the North spent countless efforts to search for any remains of the Wolf family bloodline, but to no avail.
Therefore, even if it was Gawain's words, they were still skeptical.
Gawain stood up and shook his head:
"I'm not sure yet, but I can say that I'm hopeful. And that's why I asked you to come here."
Gawain the Lion said as he turned to look at the young man who was uneasy in his high position. Gawain's fierce aura and the doubts of the northern lords made the black-haired young man startled.
He was originally just a small figure in the Northern Business Alliance, and the highest official he had ever met in his life was just the mayor.
But now he saw so many big shots whom he couldn't even look at before.
This made him very timid.
Such performance caused the northern lords to express their undisguised disappointment.
How could the children of the Lang family be like this
However, this situation did not change the expression of the kind-eyed old man behind the black-haired young man at all.
He knew very well that the chess piece found by the empire was timid and did not meet everyone's expectations of the Wolf family.
But he knew better that the blood of the chess piece was indeed the blood of the Wolf family! Although it was only a side branch, it was enough. Because it had been three hundred years.
The princes in the north had probably given up on looking for the descendants of the Wolf family long ago. In this case, the emergence of a side branch was enough to surprise them.
It's timid to be timid, but the nobility of blood cannot be ignored.
If the North does not produce a qualified leader, it will sooner or later be completely disintegrated into a royal territory by the Queen.
This would not only make the oath they made to the Lang family a complete joke, but would also make their family interests completely empty talk.
This is something that none of the northern lords can accept, so as long as they prove the bloodline of the chess piece, everything will be simple.
As for proving bloodline, in this period of Mozo's previous life, it was almost impossible to provide scientific evidence, but in this world full of extraordinary people, there are more effective identification methods than you can imagine.
Besides, although they have not verified the identity of the chess piece, the fact that the other party placed the chess piece's seat slightly below the main seat has already made their attitude clear.
So no matter how suspicious the people below were, he stood behind the chess piece with confidence.
Gawain looked at the uneasy and timid black-haired young man in front of him, and some doubts flashed through his mind, but in the end he lowered his head slightly and said:
"We need to verify your identity."
The black-haired young man looked back at the old man at a loss. The other party had been taking good care of him along the way, which made him involuntarily develop a great dependence on him.
And facing the chess piece's gaze, the old man responded with a gentle smile.
Although I didn't say anything, I told the other person very clearly - don't panic, just do it boldly as I told you before.
Seeing this, Qi Zi swallowed his saliva, then nodded to Gao Wen and said:
"well!"
Such an attitude made the doubts in everyone's hearts even deeper, and the dissatisfaction of the princes at the end of the crowd was basically written on their faces.
But no one got angry yet, because a while ago, there was a heavy snowfall that would never happen in the North!
And the heavy snow is closely related to the Wolf family.
They are all waiting for the results of the bloodline verification.
Having obtained the other party's consent, Gawain stopped talking and directly took out a scale. It was the blood scale that the Queen had used to verify Mozo's "identity" before, but unlike the Queen, this was a "virtual image" extracted from her own cognition.
Gawain's is a real product carefully made by the Elven master craftsman. However, there is no difference in function between the two.
The Queen can preserve Cromwell's "relics", so there will be no shortage of them in the North. Gawain first took out a golden brooch and placed it on his left.
Then he drew out his knife and said:
"Please place your finger on the scales. I need a drop of blood."
The young man looked at the shining knife in Gawain's hand, swallowed his saliva, and then stretched out his finger tremblingly.
With a gentle prick, a drop of blood fell on the right side of the Libra.
Then Gawain immediately turned around and raised the scales to show them to everyone. At this moment, even the obviously dissatisfied old ministers at the back were all staring with wide eyes, waiting for the result to be revealed.
They were dissatisfied with Gawain's carelessness and the youth's cowardice, but if the other party was really the last descendant of the Wolf family, then they were willing to bow their heads and fulfill their oath.
Under the gaze of everyone, the two sides of the golden scale began to float up and down in an uneven manner.
Upon seeing this, all the doubts in everyone's hearts were instantly dispelled, because the fluctuation of the blood balance meant that there was indeed a blood relationship between the two. Otherwise, two people who had nothing to do with each other would be instantly separated in terms of "superiority and inferiority".
Some nobles had already knelt down at this moment, but they had not yet saluted the young man. Instead, they stared at the Libra.
The scale that had been floating up and down finally stabilized after jumping just the right amount - Cromwell's brooch was at a higher position, while the young man's blood was at a lower position.
Although the distance between the two did not reach a perfect balance, it also fell within the scale of clan relatives.
This means that the black-haired young man is indeed a descendant of the Wolf family!
After realizing this, many nobles, led by Gawain, immediately knelt on one knee towards the black-haired young man.
To show his respect for that noble bloodline and his commitment to the oath he made in the past.
Seeing so many important figures kneeling down in front of him after verifying their identities.
The black-haired young man's timid heart was first briefly shocked, and then he turned back to look at the old man with surprise. When he turned around under the other's loving gaze, his original timid look had disappeared.
All that remains at this moment is the extremely inflated heart and arrogance.
The change of people's hearts is difficult, but also simple. And it often happens in an instant.
But soon, the black-haired young man frowned slightly, and the timidity in his heart returned a little.
Because some people did not kneel down, and they were the nobles at the back.
The first person in front of them was a bald man. He was extremely strong and had a rough appearance. He didn't look like a native of Luolan. But the black-haired young man felt that he had seen that face before.
Ah, yes, they are the Highlanders who are only found in the eastern countries of the Northern Commercial Alliance!
It's the Highland Barbarian!
The black-haired young man thought of the Highlanders he had met before. They behaved dissolutely, had hot tempers, and often fought with people other than their companions.
Even the young man himself had been beaten by the other party several times, so when he recognized the other party's race, the cowardice in his heart emerged even more.
Such a change in expression was naturally seen by the other party, which made the bald strong man in the lead even more annoyed.
He immediately said:
"He does have the bloodline of the Lang family, but he can only be considered a blood relative! Not to mention a direct descendant, he can't even be considered a collateral branch within three generations! I think he is most likely a descendant of the branch that split off when the Lang family was still the Rose Family, right?"
As he spoke, the bald man raised his finger and pointed at the old man behind the black-haired young man and said:
"And he is obviously this guy's puppet! Why would you kneel down to such a person? We are retainers of the Wolf Family, but can he be considered a descendant of the Wolf Family?"
Finally, the bald man frowned and looked at the expressionless man next to the old man and said:
"Also, if I'm not mistaken, this guy is from the Heather Empire, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the nobles who had knelt down before burst into an uproar, and they all stood up and looked at the sturdy man in surprise and doubt.
This sudden change made the black-haired young man tremble and lean back in his seat.
The old man also had a hint of helplessness in his eyes. He stepped forward and put his hand on the young man's shoulder, and said to everyone:
"As Demigod Gnas said, we are indeed from the Heather Empire."
When they heard that the other party was really Heather's man, the northern lords below not only became more and more shocked, but some even drew their swords and glared at Gawain and the old man.
The old man smiled and said before the scene completely exploded:
"I know you are all very doubtful and skeptical at the moment, but this has no effect on the essence of the matter! You have also seen that this child is indeed a relative of the Wolf family."
"I'm going to say something I shouldn't say. Apart from this child, is there any other heir in the current Lang family?"
With just two words, the old man eased the tense atmosphere.
As he said, in their opinion, it is absolutely impossible for the current Lang family to have any other bloodline descendants.
The old man also struck while the iron was hot and said:
"In addition, I can assure you that it is true that Heather and I have our own purpose in this trip, but we definitely do not want to control the Wolf Family or the North."
"This kid treated me like this, but compared to you guys, I, as someone who has been traveling with you all the way, at least know a little bit about the basics."
"As for what our Heather Empire wants, how should I put it? I think you will all agree to it happily."
As he spoke, the old man put down his hand on the young man's shoulder, walked up to the crowd, opened his hand and smiled:
"What we want is the independence of the North! We hope that the North can declare its independence after finding the last descendants of the Wolf family. At the same time, if the tyrant of Loran launches a military retaliation."
"We, the Heiser Empire, are also willing to send troops to assist, but we need you to pay for the military expenses and food."
"You don't have to doubt our motives. Thanks to the arrangement made by the old wolf lord, Roland is now in the limelight. We, Heather, are not ready for a full-scale war with Roland."
"But we are also happy to see the North become independent from Loran, so as to weaken the growing influence and military strength of the Loran Empire."
After the old man finished speaking, he clasped his hands and looked at the northern lords below with sincerity:
