Ragnar Empire.
This is a very powerful military country.
Like the neighboring kingdom of Mithra, it is a country established by the brave men of the past, but it has existed for a much longer time than the Mithra kingdom, and its background is also very profound.
It has decayed.
It was once weak.
However, under the test of time, it successfully survived and eventually became the most powerful country in the entire human world. It is considered the number one power of the human race. Its military capability alone is even the kingdom of Mithra, which has always been under the care of the gods. In comparison, they are slightly inferior.
If it weren’t for the fact that the Kingdom of Mithra was built by the strongest hero who successfully defeated the Demon King a thousand years ago, and received a lot of care from the Protoss, then perhaps the Ragnar Empire had already levelled the Kingdom of Mithra a long time ago. , To occupy the kingdom of Mithra as one's own.
Today, although there is a tendency to be gradually compared to the past by the Mithra Kingdom, in any case, at present, the Ragnar Empire is the number one military power in the human world. There is no doubt about this.
The most powerful thing in this country is the military, and the most prevalent is also the military.
Unlike the Mithra Kingdom, which allows the nobles to establish their own private armies and knights, although the Ragnar Empire also grants the nobles the right to establish their own armies and knights, it can be established in the name of the country and is not allowed to be private. Soldiers.
In other words, in the empire, all the armies and knights established by the nobles are strictly owned by the state. The nobles have the right to establish, convene, and command, but do not have the right. Once the empire needs them, all the armies and knights are Must accept the empire's dispatch, not to be regarded as a private soldier.
Of course, there are countermeasures at the top and tactics at the bottom. Although the nobles of the empire cannot have private armies and knights, it is inevitable to form guards with their own power.
You can't be a nobleman, you don't even have a guard, right
For this reason, the nobles of the empire generally cultivate their own guards and secret troops, and the higher the nobles, the stronger the nobles, the more they have this tendency.
Like the Lefirut family, don't they cultivate elite assassination troops, dead men and spies in private
The rest of the nobles are also like this. They all have the habit of cultivating their own private troops in private, which is a custom in this country.
The imperial royal family also chose to close one eye to this behavior.
Because, the more the nobles cultivate these talents, the stronger the military of the empire will be. As long as the troops and knights they own are still owned by the empire, the talents cultivated in private will definitely contribute to the empire in the end.
Just like this, the empire has been urging and advocating the development of the military, which led to the birth of a military power.
Especially the Iron Knights of the Empire, it is an expeditionary army with a whole number of one hundred thousand heavy armored knights, and it is the strongest knights in the empire.
The iron cavalry is currently available in the world. This is the praise of other countries to this knight group, or it is the evaluation and jealousy.
In front of this army, even the kingdom's Knights of Guards may be swallowed, which shows its strength.
And the head of the Iron Knights is exactly the Patriarch of the Pigusler family, the first knight house of the empire.
This Patriarch is the strongest knight in the empire, and is known as the legendary powerhouse second only to the strongest knight in the kingdom-Rockt Pigusler.
Speaking of the strongest knight in the empire, in the past, it was well known and worshipped by everyone, and it can be described as the role model and goal of all the knights of the empire.
But since the kingdom’s Alidia Elbein became famous, the empire’s strongest knight is no longer the strongest, and has been questioned by many people.
Especially recently, rumors about the strongest knight in the empire gradually spread in the imperial capital.
"Have you heard?"
"The knight commander of the Bigusler family seems to be suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason."
"It is said that someone found letters in his room about close contacts with the nobles of the kingdom."
"This... Is this true?"
"I don't know, a lot of people are talking about it anyway."
"Isn't there a lot of people coming out of the palace recently, have they always been in and out of Pigusler's house?"
"It seems to be to collect evidence of the knight leader's collaborating with the enemy and treason, so he frequently visits."
"Now, even the inside of the Iron Knights has begun to have a lot of doubts."
"Oh, what is this."
"It is really a nightmare that the strongest knight of the empire colludes with the kingdom and collaborates with the enemy and treason."
"The one from Renitra's family has been arguing for himself now, saying that there is no way to hand over the strongest military power of the empire to a traitor who may collude with the enemy and treason to lead the country. He has repeatedly spoken in the Knights and the palace. He thinks that Qing Pegusler should be allowed to step down from the post of Knight Commander."
"It's not surprising at all."
"Originally, the Patriarch of the Renitra family was very dissatisfied with Bigusler. He has proposed that their family should be the head of the knights many times."
"Who made that one also a legendary powerhouse?"
"It's normal not to accept Bigosler."
In the streets and alleys of the empire, similar discussions appeared from time to time, making the entire imperial capital feel like a storm.
Of course, what happened in the imperial capital was more than that.
"The strange thief hasn't appeared much recently."
Pay attention to the public account: book friends base camp, pay cash and coins when you follow!
"It's really been a long time since I heard the news in this regard."
"Should you be scared?"
"After all, the palace has already sent out the Royal Knights because of the rampant thief."
"That's the same as the Kingdom's Knights of Guards, it belongs directly to the Royal, and only accepts the Knights dispatched by the Royal. Every royal knight is at least seventy-level."
"Even they have been dispatched, so the mere thief naturally dare not act rashly anymore, right?"
"Yes."
This is a hot topic in the imperial capital.
It's better now. When the thief just appeared some time ago, it was just a hot discussion.
Now that the strange thief has disappeared for some time, his heat is naturally suppressed by the rest of the rumors.
Compared with the case of a strange thief, the rumor that the strongest knight family in the empire might be treason is more concerned.
However, in the recent period, there are still some rumors that are beginning to prevail.
for example...
"Prince Harves seems to have been admonished by many nobles."
"The nobles are all suspecting that the prince may also be in close contact with the kingdom."
"Some time ago, Prince Harves went to the kingdom very actively, didn't he want to marry the princess of the kingdom?"
"Qing Pygusler is also a supporter of Prince Harves. If Pygusler is a traitor who collaborates with the enemy and treason, what about Prince Harves?"
"A while ago, the prince stayed in the kingdom for almost a month."
"Such a long time is enough to do a lot of things, right?"
"Also, the Lefirut family has been advocating recently that when in the kingdom, Prince Harves had secretly attacked them, causing them to lose an elite force."
"Why do you want to attack the nobles of your own country on the territory of an enemy country?"
"Thinking about it is extremely scary."
Such rumors have recently gradually replaced the previous heated discussions and spread among the people of the imperial capital.
Under such circumstances, the people of the imperial capital are always worried and uneasy, not knowing how sad they are.
Inexplicable strange thieves appeared in the imperial capital, secretly sneaking into the homes of the nobles.
The first knight of the empire is suspected of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and is currently under investigation by the imperial palace. The Renitra family also took the opportunity to fall into the ground and tried to seize the position of the Knight Commander of the Iron Knights.
Even the prince of the empire is suspect, and seems to have an unexplainable relationship and connection with the kingdom.
All of this is telling the people in the imperial capital that the recent situation in the empire is very turbulent.
Coupled with the disappearance of Cappellin, the second queen of Valkyrie, regarded as the pillar of the empire's future, the empire has faced more and more problems recently.
The people are hoping that the royal family can make a difference, and quickly put it down.
As everyone knows, behind all this, there is a hand manipulating it.
... ...
"Ha ha ha ha... !"
In one of the alleys of the empire, a violent gasp was ups and downs.
A young girl ran awkwardly in this alley, surrounded by several guards supporting her, but they all ran as if they were fleeing.
"I... I can't run anymore...!"
The girl Hyun Ran let out a cry like weeping.
The surrounding guards immediately shouted anxiously.
"Please hold on! Miss Lenny!"
"They are chasing me soon!"
"Quick! Get out of here!"
"It's dangerous here!"
The guards wanted to take the girl and leave immediately.
pity...
"call out!"
Accompanied by a sound of breaking through the air, an arrow cut through the atmosphere, passed through the darkness in the alley, and shot in bursts.
"Puff!"
In the tearing sound, the arrow pierced the neck of a guard who was blocking the girl's back, causing her throat to spurt blood and fall to the ground.
"Shoo, hoo...!"
Arrows shot in succession one after another, hitting the guards one by one.
"what!"
"No!"
"Run away!"
"Miss!"
The guards were already exhausted. Facing this sudden arrow killing, they could almost say that they had no power to fight back. They could only scream with a scream, and they were given the arrows to penetrate their bodies one by one, and fell into a pool of blood. .
"Ahhh"
Looking at all of this, the girl finally couldn't support her feet any longer under fatigue and fear, and she collapsed to the ground.
"Don't... don't..."
In fear and despair, the girl could only shake her head while resisting reality and let out a sobbing sound.
Of course, this cannot be exchanged for the mercy and sympathy of the enemy.
"Whoo!"
In the next second, an arrow came through the air, and shot at the girl's forehead relentlessly.
Just when the girl was about to die in Huangquan, a figure suddenly appeared.
