Chapter 626: arrival

The latest website: Well-equipped cavalry guards a luxury carriage as it slowly travels west along a forest path.

At the end of the road, the outline of the storm fortress can be faintly seen.

Inside the carriage, Queen Midella closed her eyes slightly, enjoying the peace after the joy.

The soft and flawless skin glowed with a charming pink color, and the snow-white slender legs were placed on Colin.

But Colin uninterestedly removed his ivory legs, got up and started getting dressed.

"What? Still unwilling to cooperate with me?" Queen Midella leaned on the bed lazily and asked her lover in a coquettish tone.

Colin shrugged, substituting silence for the answer.

That attitude, like a scumbag who just solved his physical needs and didn't bother to perfunctory any more.

Queen Midella pouted, feeling a little helpless, so she had to stand up and help Colin dress intimately. During the period, she did not forget to take the initiative to tease, but unfortunately the man seemed to have entered the time of the sage, and there was no response to this.

"Aren't you even willing to listen to my plan?" Queen Midella patted Colin on the chest and said dissatisfiedly.

Colin laughed and said:

"Unless you tell me first, how did you manage to persuade Marquis Garcia?"

This is Colin's biggest doubt.

Marquis Garcia was already determined to die, and even the news of Vera's pregnancy could not make him change his mind, but Queen Midella easily let the other party give up his original plan.

It's so weird.

Colin couldn't figure this out.

Moreover, the more Queen Midella concealed, the more Colin felt that the reason why she let Marquis Garcia give up must be very important.

Queen Midella hesitated, and finally said helplessly: "Actually, the best way to keep a man alive is to give him a lofty mission."

"Mission?" Colin frowned even more, "What mission did you give Marquis Garcia?"

Queen Midella didn't say anything, but instead asked: "What about you? You don't plan to cooperate with me, and what are you going to do to get the imperial coalition forces to withdraw from Storm Fortress?"

"I naturally have my own way." Colin also played a guessing game.

Queen Midella giggled, found the most comfortable angle to stick to Colin, and said meaningfully:

"Kolin, do you know? I like your confident look the most, as if nothing in the world can stymie you."

Colin also smiled, stretched out his hand to squeeze Queen Midella's delicate chin, and said:

"Thank you for your liking, Her Royal Highness, I will continue to work hard to maintain this confidence."

"Very good. Be sure to keep it well, especially after entering the Storm Fortress." Queen Midella stood on tiptoe and gave Colin a sweet kiss, then pulled away and returned to her usual graceful and luxurious appearance. ordered in a cool voice,

"Now, Earl Angelie, serve me and change my clothes."

Colin smiled very gentlemanly and said:

"my pleasure."

After finishing speaking, Colin served Queen Midera to dress neatly, and he didn't move his feet again during the whole process.

Afterwards, he bowed and left the carriage with a natural expression, as if he had just had an ordinary conversation with the queen.

After riding a horse and walking for a while, the Storm Fortress was already in sight.

The guards at the gate of the city did not dare to stop them when they saw the badge of the royal family, and immediately let them go.

When he entered the city, he saw a middle-aged man in a bachelor's uniform greeted him.

Colin thought it was the person sent by Emperor Reinhardt to greet him, so he quickly grabbed the horse's belly and accelerated to the front row of the queue.

"You should be the guardian of the north, Earl Angelie, right?" Maester Yalug bowed respectfully and said.

"Yes. What's your name, please?"

"My name is Yareg, and I am the political advisor to the Duke of the South."

"The Duke of the South?" Colin was a little surprised, wondering how Emperor Reinhardt would send people from the South to greet him.

The Yaleger voluntarily explained:

"Your Majesty is holding a high-level meeting, so I don't know about your arrival, Her Royal Highness the Queen and the Earl. I came to greet you on my own initiative."

Colin nodded, not caring about it.

After all, it is no secret that there are conflicts between the emperor and the empress. He thought that the so-called "high-level meeting" was just a poor excuse that Emperor Reinhardt didn't want to come to greet the empress.

"Why are there so many people?" Walking on the crowded street, Colin asked in confusion, "Don't your Majesty plan to relieve these refugees?"

Bachelor of Yarugger smiled awkwardly and said:

"His Majesty had already planned to expel the refugees gathered in the fortress, but... Duke St. Grian just arrived at the Storm Fortress, and it seems that he has some objections to this..."

"The Duke of St. Grian?" Colin was stunned for a moment, obviously not understanding why the Duke of St. Grian would object to this.

Upon seeing this, the Yaruger added in a low voice:

"Arrived with the Duke of St. Grian, as well as Prince Leahy, and Mr.

Collin's eyes widened immediately, startled by the two names behind.

Prince Leahy? And Mr. Ho?

How did they get to Stormhold?

Then Colin realized that Prince Leahy should have come to help defend against the orcs.

No matter what kind of conflict Prince Lehi had with Emperor Reinhardt, he was a son of the royal family after all, and he would not watch the Radiance Empire be destroyed by orcs.

As for Mr. Ho...

Seeing that he can appear with Prince Lehi, and he doesn't fight again, he should be ready to fight the orcs... At least on the surface, Mr. Ho should be on the side of the Radiance Empire.

But there is no other conspiracy behind the scenes.

Immediately, Colin realized that Maester Yaluger said that the Duke of St. Grian didn't want to relieve the refugees gathered in the fortress, but in fact, this should be Mr. Ho's idea.

And the reason why Mr. Ho did this...it's not hard to guess——

He also wants to create an [Eye of Judgment]!

The refugees in Storm Fortress are obviously the sacrifices of Mr. Ho!

And his target should be the orc emperor Saruman.

In just a split second, countless thoughts passed through Colin's mind.

The situation in Stormhold was far more complicated than he expected.

Colin realized that his original plan was no longer feasible.

Emperor Reinhardt is no longer the crux of the problem. On the contrary, the three Paladins, or to be more precise, Mr. Ho, are the key figures in determining the situation in the fortress.

While contemplating, the group has come to the castle in the center of the fortress.

Queen Midella stepped out of the carriage, and when she passed by Colin, she said with a chuckle:

"Count Angele, are you still confident that you can control the situation by yourself?"

Colin narrowed his eyes did not answer.

He suddenly realized that Queen Midella had already known everything in the fortress?

Even... is this actually part of her plan?

Seeing Queen Midera's swaying figure slowly disappearing into the castle, Colin suddenly turned his head to look at the Yaruger beside him.

The confidant of the Duke of the South is obviously a smart person. In just two sentences, he helped Colin understand the situation in the fortress and pointed out the key.

The most important thing is that he took the initiative to reveal all this to Colin, indicating that Nanjing did not agree with Mr. Ho's plan.

So, this is an ally.

"Master Yarug, this is the first time I have come to Storm Fortress. Could you please show me around and familiarize myself with the environment here?"

"It is my pleasure, my lord."
