The message about the Duke’s military decree soon spread throughout Ice Rock City.
There is a joyous scene in the city.
Everyone believes that as long as Marquis Garcia takes the initiative, the battle for revenge will be secured.
Of course, it's humble to say that it is stable.
After all, the Black Cavalry has been unbeaten since it officially became an army.
But Colin was not so happy.
Moreover, as time passed day by day, his worries deepened day by day.
Because, the Marquis of Garcia seems to have no plan to lead troops northward at all.
Moreover, the private armies of the lords in the north are constantly gathering in Ice Rock City, almost turning the entire city into a huge barracks.
As more and more soldiers poured into Ice Rock City, the confidence of the people in the city grew.
In their view, this should be the lords responding to the call of Marquis Garcia, preparing to gather the men and horses, and cooperate with the Black Cavalry to fight back the trolls.
However, Colin, who knew the original text of the Duke's military decree, was not so optimistic.
Because he clearly remembered that the knight Bliss personally told him that the Duke’s order was for Marquis Garcia to lead the Black Cavalry to pursue the trolls, but he never asked him to summon the private armies of the lords to attack together!
Did Marquis Garcia lie about the Duke’s military order?
What does he want to do with so many troops?
Are you really planning to attack the trolls?
Still is……
Colin's unknown hunch grew worse.
For ten consecutive days, the Black Cavalry remained silent, but the private armies of the lords in the north gathered more and more.
Seeing that the situation was about to slip into the most dangerous abyss, Ice Rock City was almost about to become a huge gunpowder keg, and Colin had already planned to run away.
But at this moment, he suddenly received a message from Vera.
"Miss Vera wants to see me?"
"Yes."
Under the gaze of the maid, Colin hesitated for a while, and finally sighed, "Well, let's lead the way."
The maid led Colin all the way into the castle of the Sudor family and came to a garden in the backyard of the castle.
In the garden, Colin saw Vera at a glance.
He hasn't seen her for a long time.
It seems that she is also worried about the current tense situation.
"Colin, you are here!"
Under the shining of the morning sun, Vera seemed calm and tranquil.
She is not dressed in noble costumes today, but simple homely.
The upper body is a thin white shirt and the lower body is a black short skirt. A small rose is embroidered on the left chest of the shirt and the corners of the skirt.
However, even with such a simple dress, it is difficult to conceal her stunning beauty.
When Colin came in, she was concentrating on taking care of a plant in the garden.
After seeing Colin, Vera smiled and waved to him, as if a girl was greeting her first love.
I don't know why, when Colin saw Vera, his originally anxious heart suddenly settled down.
He walked over, bowed, and saluted: "Good morning, Miss Vera."
"Good morning, Colin. Have you had breakfast?"
"Ate."
"What do you want to drink then?"
"Coffee."
Vera motioned to the maid to bring a cup of coffee.
Colin thanked her and took a sip.
Concentrated
After the bitterness, it turned into a faint sweetness, with some refreshing fragrance.
"Not bad." Vera smiled when she saw Colin's enjoyment expression, "This is the collection of the Sudor family."
"Haha, then I still have to thank you."
Colin held the coffee cup, squatted down beside Vera, looked at the plant in front of her, and asked, "Is this the flower you planted?"
"This is not a flower." Vera shook her head. "This is a twin grass, a very precious plant for the mage. Moreover, it wasn't my plant, it was given to me by the knight Kahn."
"Well, it seems that knight Kahn is really generous!"
It's sending coffee, and it's sending precious plants, this Kahn won't hollow out all treasures of the Sudor family in order to please Vera?
For this kind of man, although Colin praised him on the surface, he has already scolded him in his heart.
Bah, licking dog!
This kind of dog licking is the public enemy of all men, because their behavior raises the psychological expectations of girls and greatly harms the interests of other men.
Take Colin, for example. He doesn't know what gift to give Vera now, and he almost can't get it, and even better... it seems that he can't afford it.
Vera didn't know the mental activity of the man beside her. She stared at the twin grass in front of her, suddenly sighed, and said leisurely:
"Did you know? This twin grass looks like one, but it's actually a pair.
Since birth, the branches of this pair of twin grasses have been entwined together and supported each other, but they were entangled too tightly, so they tortured each other.
Did you see that drop of light green juice?
That's how their branches are squeezed out of each other. "
While talking, the drop of juice gradually formed and suddenly fell.
The drop of juice fell into the soil but didn't seep in, but turned into an amber-like green gem.
Vera carefully picked up the green gem and explained: "This is the crystallization of the twin grass juice, which is an extremely precious spellcasting material. However, this is actually the blood and tears they shed when they tortured each other."
It was the first time that Colin saw such a miraculous plant, and he couldn't help but glance at it a few more times under curiosity.
But then he realized that Vera's words seemed to mean something.
Is the relationship between the Duke of St. Hilde and the Marquis of Garcia, the relationship between their two brothers, like this twin grass, supporting each other, but antagonizing each other?
Vera collected the twin grass crystal, turned around, and said to Colin: "You should know that my father and uncle are a little bit stiff, so, can you help me persuade them?"
Your father and your uncle are more than a little stiff now...
Colin was speechless for a while, but on the surface he comforted: "Don't worry, nothing will happen. However, I'm an outsider...it's not easy to persuade them. Have you tried to persuade them yourself?"
"Of course I have tried." Vera bulged her cheeks, seeming a little angry, "but my uncle ignored my advice. As for my father, I have written two letters and sent them to Winter City, but they are both like stones sinking into the sea."
Colin was silent.
Vera was a little anxious: "Do you know? Recently I got a message that the Golden Lion Army has begun to assemble, and it seems to have the intention of heading to Ice Rock City!"
Colin was shocked.
The Golden Lion Army is a direct army of the Saint Hilde family. If this army is also mobilized, it does not mean that the Duke of Saint Hilde has taken an uncompromising posture, and even made good preparation for a battle?
"Colin, you can always figure out a way in desperate situations, this time, you must help me too!"
Facing Vera's soft request, Colin couldn't say anything to refuse.
At this time, he finally understood what is meant by "beauty".
"Okay. I'll go with you to see Marquis Garcia."
"Thank you, Colin!"
"Don't be happy too early, I can only try my best to persuade him, as to whether we can succeed..."
"Regardless of success or failure, I will be grateful!"
