Realm of Power

"So, the golden arrow that represents the identity of the three masters has not fallen into Asu'o's hands yet?" After hearing the old butler's words, the young officer paused in the air, turned his head slightly in surprise, and looked at the old butler.

"Yes, that's why I think it's ridiculous. Master Sanbu without the golden arrow, is he still Master Sanbu?" The old butler revealed a sneer, and his wrinkled eyes were full of joy.

It seemed that anything that could make Asu'o sad was the source of his happiness. Looking at the old housekeeper's smile, a trace of indifference flashed in the young officer's heart. The old housekeeper's three sons were all killed because of the war with Asu'o. Death, no wonder he hates Asuo so much. The young officer walked into the hall and was silent for a while before saying, "Although the previous assassination was a bit too hasty, this time it is undeniable that Di Casti's actions before his death It’s a very beautiful move.”

"Who says it's not the case?" the old housekeeper said happily. "The whole northern cold area knows that the golden arrow is the symbol of the status of the three masters of Hulanbei. Without the golden arrows, Asu'uo, the three masters, is not justified. It's not going well. Whether it's the Biluks in the extremely cold north or the Austin people on the eastern coast, everyone must be watching his joke at this moment."

"A joke is a joke, but if you think that the two tribes will send troops to Asu'o, you are totally wrong."

The young officer said solemnly, "Because whether there are golden arrows or not, it has no impact on Asu'o's control of Hulanbei. Strength is the most important thing. The golden arrows are just symbolic, just like Dika who has golden arrows." Siti, also abandoned by all tribes

This time Asuo not only eradicated the Dika tribe who could compete with them in one fell swoop, but also took the opportunity to attack Hulanbei City to weaken the strength of each tribe. As a result, Dicasti set fire to Hulanbei City.

Buried with him were not only countless treasures and property, but also his own family of 11. I am afraid that from now on, the entire Hulanbei will no longer be able to resist the existence of the Asuo tribe, and neither will the Austin people. If a fool sends troops at this time, he will inevitably become the target of Hulanbei's tribes to vent their anger. Dicasti's last blow seems to be very useful, but I am afraid that it will not have much effect. Regardless of whether there is a golden arrow or not, The situation of Asu’s control over Hulanbei cannot be changed.”

"Does this mean that I, the Pablo clan, will never be able to succeed again?" Hearing the young officer's words, the old housekeeper's face became ugly.

"That's not necessarily the case." Hearing the sigh of the old butler behind him, the young officer turned around, held his hands firmly on the wooden railing next to him, and said with a solemn expression.

"Rather than watching Asu'o's jokes, I'm more concerned about where the golden arrow was sent.

"What do you mean by the young patriarch?" The old housekeeper looked stunned for a moment and looked at the young officer in confusion. This young officer's name is Yagted. He is the young patriarch of the Pablo tribe in the northern cold area. Two years ago, because of Pablo, The Boluo people belong to the Yuasuo tribe was defeated in the war and had to be merged into the Asuo tribe and became a vassal of this main branch. The Pablo tribe is a medium-sized tribe in the northern cold land with a population of 40,000. They make a living by hunting, so the Pablo tribe The ice hunters of the Luo people are very famous

The main weapon of these ice hunters is the javelin. With their extremely high skating skills, they can move like wind in the frozen wilderness. The bone javelin in their hands can accurately kill targets a hundred meters away, even if they are physically strong. The famous Northland Ax Warriors, facing these ghost-like opponents on the ice sheet, can only choose to stay on the spot.

Yagted is the famous cold winter wolf among ice hunters, also known as the first warrior in the North.

"This may be an opportunity for us to get rid of the control of the Asuo tribe and truly break out. Maybe we still have to endure it for the sake of the more than 40,000 compatriots in the tribe." Yagted held his head high and stood at the window next to him. Looking at the cold sky outside, my face is full of thoughts

"Dicasti spent so much effort to send such an important thing out without anyone noticing amid the layers of siege. It should not just be as simple as seeing Asuo's joke. If I guessed correctly, The golden arrow representing Lord Sanbu should have arrived in the hands of its owner."

"Master? This should be impossible." The old housekeeper looked a little horrified and said with a frown, "Now the entire Hulanbei is within Asu's sphere of influence. Once found out, it will inevitably become Asu's full attack." Object, no leader of that tribe dares to take over such a hot thing."

"This is not necessarily true. For Hulanbei, Asu'o is powerful and invincible. But beyond Hulanbei, the mainland is so vast. Compared with the big empire in the south, Asu'o is nothing."

The young officer smiled sarcastically and said confidently, "Dicasti's military ability is average, but he is indeed good at plotting. If it weren't for the failed assassination, or he is still the one controlling Hulanbei now." Master Sanbu, if I guessed correctly, the golden arrow should have been sent to the south, because only the south would be interested in intervening in the war in the cold north."

"Dong dong." Just as the two were talking and discussing, there was a knock on the door. The two quickly held their voices, and the young officer quickly ducked into a side door next to him. "If they are looking for me, just say that I am participating in Dorothy." The Kremlin's rally went "

The old housekeeper hurriedly ran to open the door and took the letter from a messenger from the north.

"This is what Master Asu'o personally ordered." The messenger whispered something to the old housekeeper. The old housekeeper's face suddenly changed. The messenger left after a while.

"What happened?" The young officer waited until the messenger left before cautiously sticking out half of his head, and then came out of a side room. Judging from the gloomy look on the old housekeeper's face, he knew it must be something bad. Sure enough, the old housekeeper closed the door. , walked back with the letter and said in a deep voice

"Some unexpected circumstances occurred. It seems that what the young patriarch guessed was correct. Unfortunately, that idiot Asu'o also thought of it. He asked us to pay close attention to the road from Dongting Grassland to the Dorok Mountains.

"If there is any suspicious person, intercept it immediately. Asuo suspects that the golden arrow may be on the body of Dicasti's youngest daughter Dika Beni who has already escaped."

"Dikabeni? The pearl of Hulanbei, Dikabeni? Didn't you say that she has died in Hulanbei?" The young officer opened his mouth slightly in surprise and took a deep breath.

"I don't know what's going on." The old housekeeper shook his head with emotion and said. "I heard that the soldiers who were clearing the ruins were only focused on robbing property, and they only carelessly dragged away the 11 corpses found in Dicasti's residence." They were buried outside the city, so everyone thought that all of Dicasti's army was dead."

"Then how was she discovered? According to our information, on the day Hulanbei City fell, in order to prevent his wife and daughter from being insulted, Di Casti not only ordered the burning of Hulanbei City, but also killed them himself. He has 4 wives and 7 children. Is this Deca Benila one of them? How come another Deca Benila pops up now? "

"It's not the Golden Arrow, because recently there has been a big search for the Golden Arrow to no avail. Suddenly someone asked whether we should search for these 11 corpses. These are all members of the Dicasti family. It is entirely possible that the Golden Arrow Hidden on their bodies, and no one searched for them after they were killed.

Asuo thought it was reasonable, so he immediately sent people to dig up the grave that had been buried outside the city. As a result, they discovered something incredible. Only 10 corpses were found in the tomb, and one corpse was just missing. , it’s really strange to say, in a big way After a search, someone found the woman's clothes that had been replaced in a woods not far from the tomb. The maid at the Di Casti Mansion identified them as the clothes of the third young lady Di Kabeni. Assuo suspected It was Deka Beni who took away the golden arrow."

"What a vicious method." After hearing what the old official said, the young officer's face flashed with solemnity and he thought for a while before saying, "I was surprised, how did the golden arrows flow out of the city when the army was besieging the city? Now It seems that Di Casti used the ten lives of his family to create an opportunity for one person to leave the city."

The old housekeeper's face was not good-looking either, and he hesitated and asked, "Young patriarch, what should we do now? Do we really have to obey Asu'o's order and kill the last hope of the Dika tribe?"

The young officer hesitated for a while, sighed helplessly, and then said in a solemn voice, "Immediately order our people to block the road from Dorok to Dongting and the northern cold land. The Asuos have controlled the border leading to Dongting Grassland. If you want to go to the south of the continent safely, venturing through the Dorok Mountains is a very feasible option. If you want to go to the south through the Dorok Mountains, you must pass through Stankuted in the northwest of Aaron and submit a request to the Dorok Parliament. Requesting the local garrison to assist in arresting "

"But" the old housekeeper's face was ugly, and his eyes were full of struggle and pain.

"No," the young officer said categorically. "Before we don't have enough strength to oppose Asu'o, we still need to obey his orders, otherwise it will arouse his suspicion. By then, my brother and 40,000 The tribe will be in danger, so we can only do what he said."

"Hey, when did the Winter Wolf, known as the number one warrior in the North, become so afraid to fight?" The old housekeeper screamed in pain, turned around and opened the door of the room, using his wrist with force.

"Bang" the door closed heavily, and the ground shook with a huge echo.

"Uncle Polasek, I hope you can understand what I did today, not only because of the tribe, but also to protect you." From the window, I saw a sneaky figure following the old housekeeper in a hurry.

The cold winter wolf Yagted turned around solemnly, picked up the clothes hanging behind the door, and felt a burning sensation in his heart. Although he was named the person in charge of Dorok, he was actually the spy of Asuo. I have never left myself, and sometimes I have to make some superficial appearances.

Opening the door, a gust of autumn wind blew in his face. Yagted stopped a carriage at the door and asked the driver to circle around the city for several times. After confirming that no one was following him, he stopped in Dongcheng District. Get off the bus in front of a shop,

After carefully looking around, Yagted walked to a street intersection in front of him, and then turned into a quiet alley. This was a dead end. Because of the backlight, people outside could hardly see what was going on inside. People can see the outside very clearly

"What happened? Why did you use such an urgent contact method and walked around my store three times in a row? What should I do if someone suspects me?"

Seeing Yagted walking in in a hurry, a stout figure deep in the alley stood up. This was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance.

He is somewhat bald and has a square face. He is wearing linen clothes and a pair of leather crotch-length trousers. His rough hands are covered with calluses that have been picking up hammers all the time. He is an ordinary blacksmith.

But absolutely no one would have thought that this middle-aged man with a vulgar look and even a bit of depression was the code-named Iron Eyes Kubokno, the chief of the Falcon Empire's Supervision Department in the Aaron region.

His calloused hands were not only used to pick up hammers, they also wielded sharp double swords back then. He was known as the squadron leader among the Falcon Guards who most resembled the double-sword Saron.

"We are allies now, you should trust me on this." Yagted came over with an unhappy expression, sat down opposite Kubokno, handed him the letter in his hand and said, "Look at this first. You once promised me that if the time is right, you will send troops to intervene in the situation in the northern cold region and eradicate the cancer of Asuo in one fell swoop. Now, I think it is time for you to fulfill this promise."

"Golden arrow?" Kubok opened the letter in his hand and glanced at a pair of sparkling eyes. His eyes suddenly lit up. The order from His Majesty Falcon has asked to pay close attention to the movements of the northern cold land and Dorok. He is preparing for this. Things are busy. If you submit this valuable information, your future will be bright.

"This news is too important." Kubokno handed the letter back to Yagted. "I will report it to His Majesty Falcon immediately, but I want to know why you are so sure that this Dick Beney is Will we definitely choose the road over the Dorok Mountains? If we make a mistake in judgment, won’t our work be in vain?”

"You can rest assured about this, because this road is the only one that can be passed safely," Yagted said with great confidence. "The border of Dongting has been sealed, and the Dongting cavalry has always been brutal, and the previous grievances have caused great harm to the northern Han Dynasty." The people there are extremely unfriendly. If you come from Dongting Grassland Crossing, the danger is too great. Even if you can safely pass the blocked border, it will be difficult to escape the pursuit of the prairie light cavalry. On the vast grassland, these Dongting light cavalry are as terrifying as wolves. When the time comes, a beautiful You can know what will happen to girls without even thinking about it.

Therefore, she would definitely choose to abandon the closest Dongting Grassland and take a long way into the Dorok Mountains. Not only because the mountains here are so many that it is almost difficult to conduct a comprehensive search. Even if there are more people, facing so many people We can only choose to look at the mountains with excitement, because this is an area close to the Falcon Army's northern frontier."

After listening to Yagted's explanation, Kubokno nodded in agreement and said with some hesitation, "What you said is indeed good, but the Dorok Mountains are so big, how can we know that she will pass there? "

"Going from the northern mountainous area to the south, you must pass through Stankuted's road." Yagted stretched out his fingers with a solemn face, drew a few horizontal lines on a dusty wooden box next to him, and said

"I have sent people to blockade the place, and deliberately let the local garrison of the Dorok people join in. This will inevitably attract the attention of Dickbeiny. She may not know that she has been exposed, so she will choose first Stay and see the situation. You just need to send someone to pay close attention to whether there are any strange cold women in the villages near Stankuted."

In a villa in the south of the mainland, he gently placed the information in his hand on the stone table beside the pool of the villa. A guy who was taking a break from his busy work sat down on a stone pier beside the stone table and looked at the person in front of him. Sitting on the gravel-paved stone platform at the edge of the pond, a beautiful woman stretched out her legs like white lotus roots and made crystal clear splashes appear in the water.

The fat man said with some pride, "Ruitang Tingna, you really should take a look at this. I really didn't expect that life in Asu'o in the north is not easy. He may seem strong, but in fact, there are so many people inside and outside who want his life."

"Your Majesty brought me here for more than just to let me see this." Opposite the Princess of the East Courtyard, Ruitang Tingna, who was stretching out her white and tender legs and feeling her legs moving in the water, rolled up her trouser legs with a calm expression, stood up straight, and just In the shallow pond on the calf, the fish happily played between the white and tender toes,

The Princess of Dongting was wearing a close-fitting white sleeved dress, which had lost a little bit of her clothing, but she still had a sense of arrogance in her bones. I don’t know if it was because she no longer had the same cold demeanor as before, or because of this, it added to her appearance. There was a hint of sadness between her eyebrows. Under her gaze, the fat man did not dare to look directly at her.

"Actually, the power Asuo has today is mostly due to His Majesty's indulgence." Ruitang Tingna gently stroked her arm, and a strand of long satin-like hair was gently draped on her seemingly weak shoulders, and she said with some dissatisfaction.

"If His Majesty had allowed our Dongting army to march into the northern cold region, with the combat power of our Dongting iron hooves, even if we could not kill Asu'o, we would definitely be able to severely damage the Asu'o tribe.

How could it be that the Asuo tribe had the power to become the leader of the northern cold region in such a short period of time?

Ruitang Tingna's voice stopped, and she shrugged her shoulders delicately as she spoke. Her charming charm was revealed inadvertently, and she said unconvincingly, "Since His Majesty blocked the trade in the northern cold regions and weakened the strength of the Asuo tribe by means of confinement and blockade,

Life in Asuo is no longer as comfortable as it used to be. There is a shortage of iron in the cold north. Even if there are warriors who dare to die, it will be useless. This time it seems that they have eradicated the powerful enemies of the Deckards in one fell swoop. In fact, the Austins and Similar to Yagted's pet peeve, none of them is a fuel-saving lamp.

Now that the Asuo family is the dominant family, I believe the next target will be the Austin people. If the two sides start a war, the current northern cold land will be an excellent opportunity to intervene." To be continued)
