Robert Guiscard, demigod of the Otteville family, nicknamed "Cunning Fox".
Standing on the high ground, he looked indifferently at the Norman knights' siege in front of him.
The Otwell family has two demigods, one is William the "Iron Arm" and the other is Robert the "Cunning Fox".
Normally speaking, given the current emptiness in southern Italy, two demigods would be enough for the family to conquer the area.
However, the Normans all knew that the relationship between these two demigods was actually very bad, and it was impossible for them to put aside their pride and work together sincerely.
William the Iron-Armed is the current head of the Otteville family, and Robert is his half-brother.
Their father, Tancred, was a minor baron in the West Frankish Kingdom. He had little property but a large family (2 wives, 12 sons and 7 daughters), so the house was always filled with trivial quarrels.
Later, the sons could not stand the torment of poverty, so they went out to seek wealth and glory. Finally, William the Iron-arm gained a foothold in Sicily, and Robert heard that his brother had established his own foundation in southern Italy, so he gave up his adventurous life and rushed to join him.
The result was only a castle in a remote fiefdom.
Of course, Robert was not an ordinary person, as he was able to keep up with the level during the magic tide and finally became a demigod not long ago. Like William the Iron Arm, he fought his way out with real swords and guns. The world is so big, there are always a few chosen ones who can be favored by fate and are destined to become the destroyers and subverters of the old era.
Soon, the Norman knights captured the castle in front and began to slaughter the Templar defenders whose front line had collapsed. Robert sneered and moved forward surrounded by guards.
Since his brother in Sicily was unwilling to give him a fief, he could only go north to seize southern Italy himself and lay his own foundation.
The news of the fall of Calabria soon reached Solomon City. For a time, the whole city was in panic and a large number of citizens began to flee north.
However, the Holy See quickly sent priests to explain: Calabria is the poorest region in the whole of Italy, and it has not had time to repair and activate the anti-magic magnetic field, so it fell under the attack of the Norman Knights.
Currently, 37 anti-magic magnetic fields have been activated on the Italian Peninsula, and more magnetic field towers will be put into use in the next few weeks, which will be enough to protect the situation around Solomon City.
In fact, the intelligence presented to the Cardinals Conference showed that the actual situation in the south was much worse than what they claimed. The main reason was that the offensive of the "cunning fox" was too fast. At present, when the military and industrial system of the Holy See had not been fully restored, it was difficult to resist the attack of the other side.
The Otwell family controls an extraordinary bloodline called "Horn of the North", and the sequence combination is Strong X+Toughness II+Blunt I+Violent III+Frost III.
Legend has it that the "Horn of the North" is one of the many barbaric bloodlines mastered by the ancient Viking clans. The user can use the power of ice to freeze the enemy, and can also enter a violent state at any time to increase combat power. The sign of the bloodline is that when it is fully developed, the hair will turn into ice-white, and the eyeballs will show a lot of bloodshot.
