Hopelander, House of Anemi.
The small castle of white stone bricks is built on the hillside. A long wall surrounds the land. The interior is like a park. There are thick tree canopies and blooming flowers everywhere. Even in autumn, the courtyard is not cold. , because there is a heat flow cycle underground.
The ancestors of the Anemii family were fond of flowers. They had spent a lot of money asking alchemists to dig geothermal pipes. The water flow into the ground and then back to the surface would bring a certain amount of heat. Even in the cold winter, a certain temperature could be guaranteed.
The beautiful pavilion on the hillside is brightly lit.
Feng Nai wore a bright yellow dress, walked through the corridor guarded by guards, and then knocked on the door of a room. After a while, the door opened, revealing the lively scene inside. A dozen high-level chambers of commerce were sitting in the small hall. , while Noyce, the head of the Anemii family, sat on the top.
Noyce is only in his early forties this year, and he is in his prime. The affairs of the Chamber of Commerce are usually handled very well. If it weren't for the civil strife in the west wind, Anemii can be said to be prosperous these years, so he has also developed Feng Nai. Carefree character. After all, his father took care of everything, and it was not her turn to worry about it.
"Father, I'm here." Feng Nai raised her skirt and bowed, then walked into the hall with a little curiosity and sat on the next chair.
"Lord Noyce, the Nissos family has fully acted, and Lord Felton has also arranged the manpower in several eastern districts as agreed before, and blocked the east gate of Hopelander."
"Very well, how about Tisifone?"
"Tisifone also sent people to control the north gate. Most of the northern districts are workshops and poor people, and their methods will be tougher."
Feng Nai was a little confused when he heard these words, what was he doing, why did he close the city gate, and when did their family get so close to Nissos and Tisifone
Just when she was about to ask, Noyce also spoke. He had short crimson hair and brown-black pupils that shone brightly in the candlelight.
"In addition to the West Gate of Hopelander that is closed on our side, and the patrol teams of the three houses on the city wall, now the only exit of Hopelander is the southern pier."
"Yes, my lord, there are not many boats on the dock, and there are not many big boats. Even if someone leaves by boat, not many people can leave." A guard in armor said in response.
"But why don't we send someone to block the pier?" A steward was a little puzzled.
"No." Noyce shook his head.
"Our purpose is to control Hopelander in the end, and those who are disobedient and strong will leave by boat."
"This can also reduce bloodshed and conflicts. After all, we will have to develop based on Hopelander for a long time in the future, and we can't do too much."
"Your lord is wise." Several stewards present began to compliment again. After the initial tension, everyone in the small hall relaxed a little.
"Father," Feng Nai finally asked when he had a free opportunity.
"Can you tell me what happened?" Her long light red hair was placed on the delicate dress, and the ends of her hair were spiral-shaped, giving her a luxurious and elegant overall look.
Noyce looked at Feng Nao lovingly, and then opened his mouth to explain what happened and the fact that they are now united with Tisifone and the Nissos family.
"Tisifone?" Feng Nao frowned.
Recently, Noyce invited Adeley to visit several times. Adeley has changed a lot compared to before. He actually showed off his cooking skills, which made Feng Nao change his senses a lot.
But today's events made her feel disgusted again. Is Tisifone so fond of conspiracy and tricks? The little goodwill that had changed the bud has disappeared.
"What about the Karites and the Hellis family?" Kayuna asked.
Noyce did not answer immediately, but a senior executive of the Chamber of Commerce next to him answered Feng Nai's question.

"If they are willing to cooperate and do not resist, we will not embarrass them."
"But what if they don't want to?" Feng Nao was a little worried about his friend Mei Lu.
"That's up to them." A guard captain replied in a low voice.
"Funao, are you worried about Meru?" Noyce looked at his only daughter.
"Well, a little bit." Feng Nai nodded and looked at his father for help.
She and Mei Lu played together from childhood to adulthood. Although they often bickered, they actually had a very good relationship.
"I know, so I told them before not to hurt Miss Mei Lu. When the matter is over, you can also send Mei Lu to live in another country and ensure that she lives in a prosperous life. How about this?"
"Thank you dad~"
Feng Nai breathed a sigh of relief and let go of her worries, because her father had never let her down. As long as her father agreed, he would definitely do it. As for other things that came later, she didn't care much.
Unlike Mei Lu, who has been under family pressure since she was a child, Feng Nai has hardly suffered any setbacks during her growth. Her doting on a leisurely life has given her a lot of time to pursue her personal hobbies, and she also has a natural self-confidence and pride.
Blooming like a flower, blooming like a gem.
She is also a very famous eldest lady in the entire Vilga business alliance, and is sought after by many heirs of the chamber of commerce. She has become famous and has become a natural spokesperson for her own jewelry.
--------------
Daffodil Street, the alchemy workshop of 'Shield of Lake Light'.
In the dark and dripping basement, a young apprentice was tied to a pillar. The blue alchemy light reflected in the bloody laboratory. A piece of cloth was stuffed in his mouth, and he could only make a simple hum.
Zenep, the alchemist master who had talked to Roland Hill before, stood in the laboratory. He stood still in front of a huge gray golem, watching the heavy and towering body slowly move, and the golem's eyes lit up. With bursts of blue light, he shouted excitedly.
"Finally, I finally succeeded, hahaha, hahaha."
The maddening voice reverberated in the dark underground, and then he released his left hand, and a blood-stained head rolled to the ground. This lively head was one of the previous clerks, one of his apprentices.
On the dead head are wide-open eyes, an expression of disbelief and fear.
Seeing this scene, the tied young man struggled even more.
But the alchemist who had his back turned to him didn't care about such trivial matters. He walked forward slowly and gently stroked the gray and hard golem, as if he was the most beloved lover.
"They looked down on me back then. I thought they were good friends, but I didn't know until that day that they looked down on me in their hearts, but they usually didn't talk about it out of face."
"I'm so stupid, I'm so stupid, people's family background is hundreds of times more than mine. After playing with them for a long time, I really thought they were friends."
"I'm not worthy, following them like a clown."
"However, I must prove myself. Even if I am kicked out of the academy and fail to graduate, I will prove myself. After all, you are wrong."
"And I was right."
"The materials excavated from the ruins, the secret technique of the Quicksilver Dynasty, will surely set off a new revolution, and this new type of golem will sweep everything."
"And I must slap that group of people in the face!"
"Why, why, you insulted me so much back then, and said that I was so humble and lowly, woo woo woo..."
He cried as he spoke, tears streaming down his face, as if he was venting his anguish, unwillingness, and hatred for many years.
As for the gray golem standing still in front of him, the lines on his body flowed in turn, spreading out from the chest, spreading all over the body, until finally reflecting the golden swords behind him.
