Throne of the North

Chapter 36 The Count and the Assassin

Leiyun County has the highest mountain in Beifeng Province. At the same time, every autumn, thunderclouds gather on the mountain.

It is hard to imagine that there is an ancient castle on such a mountain that is three to four hundred meters high.

The territory of Earl Love Weiss is here. At the same time, this Earl is also the only nobleman in Beifeng Province who serves as a county guard but does not live in the city of Leiyun County.

He prefers to live in his own count's castle, where almost no enemies can attack.

But the more reason is that Count Love Weiss has an unknown secret.

At this moment, Count Weiss was facing the wind and snow on the mountain, looking at the distant north, with memories in his eyes.

"How many years have passed, who still remembers that the Weiss family is the owner of this land?"

Before the Pandimensional War of Gods, the North Wind Province was part of a kingdom called Northern Garr, where it was like spring all year round.

The former royal family of the Northern Gal Kingdom was the Weiss family.

But the Pandimensional War of Gods came, and following the Lord of the Morning, the Kingdom of Northern Gal also fell into despair after the war, and all the royal family members died.

Later, the cold winter wind blew from the north, and the nobles continued to move south. In the process, the Kingdom of Northern Garr also suffered the impact of the southward army.

This kingdom fell completely, and even the North Wind Province was occupied by the Great Duke of North Wind.

Love Weiss was not a direct descendant of the royal family of the former kingdom, he was just a remote branch of that family.

But even though he is a sideline, he is still recognized as a noble under the name of the Weiss family.

That year, when Archduke Meyers attacked Beifeng Province, Weiss saw an opportunity. He was the first to defect to the empire. With the empire's cart and the soldiers he obtained, Love Weiss became the third leader of Beifong Province. One of the earls.

But what no one expected was that in the process of becoming an earl, Earl Weiss crossed the Xiangshan Plain and entered the northern land, where he found the property left behind by the former Northern Garr Kingdom.

There are only two things in the kingdom's property. One is the crown, which contains the divinity after the death of a thunder giant that was infinitely close to a god and was captured by the Kingdom of Northern Gal in the war between gods.

That battle caused the Northern Gal Kingdom's army to lose more than 70%, which led to the subsequent series of results.

The second legacy is the method of cultivating the cat-man assassins that the royal family of the Northern Gal Kingdom loves to cultivate.

Between the wars within the scope of the gods, it can be said that there are fierce internal conflicts within various kingdoms on the continent, and assassins are the most efficient and least costly method.

Count Weiss is very smart. Perhaps, he is the first to put a group of people like assassins who have no place on the stage into the war.

But the effect is significant.

"With the help of the Catman Assassin, the Black Goatman Warrior should be able to inflict heavy casualties on those two guys, hahahahaha."

Count Weiss holds a glass of red wine in his hand. This is something from the southern part of the empire. It is said that it takes a lot of grain to brew it.

"There are so many good things in the empire."

"pity……"

Weiss's eyes flashed with struggle, but soon his eyes became extremely determined.

"The earl is only an earl after all. I want to become the king of the North Wind Province."

His eyes became fanatical, and the crown on his head showed his ambition.

He wants the North Wind Province to be completely defeated in the process of blocking the orc invasion this year, and let the North Wind Province be ravaged by the orcs.

That way, he could use the contacts he had developed in the empire over the years to push for that thing again.

Within the empire, there are many nobles who do not believe in the value of the North Wind Province. They have proposed several times to cut off the North Wind Province.

In fact, Weiss also knew the thoughts of those nobles. They were for the benefit of Wing Canyon. As long as Beifeng Province was the territory of the empire, the meaning of the existence of Wing Canyon was extremely useless. Some nobles in the empire, such as Mei Grand Duke Yes proposed to send the troops from Feiyi Canyon to station in the Xiangshan Plain of Beifeng Province.

This was the political struggle within the empire over the northeast corner, but obviously, Archduke Meyers lost.

But another part of the nobles did not win either. They proposed cutting off the North Wind Province many times, but to no avail. As one of the four Grand Dukes of the Empire, Meyers also had strong connections.

For Earl Vis, this is not in his interest at all. He wants to restore the country. He wants the North Wind Province to become his own kingdom and the Kingdom of Vis.

The Beifeng Province was the territory of the empire, but he would not dare to do so. So the first thing to do was to let the empire abandon the Beifeng Province and make it a completely unclaimed land. At that time, the two extraordinary legions suffered heavy casualties. How could the earl be his opponent, earl Weiss?

Thinking of this, Earl Weiss couldn't help but get excited, and traces of thunder and lightning appeared on his body.

"As long as the North Wind Province is defeated, the empire will see that millions of gold coins every year are wasted. Seeing that if you want to rebuild the North Wind Province, you need more gold coins. One million gold coins every year is absolutely not enough. At least three gold coins every year. One million, five million, those big nobles will never agree, even the royal family will hesitate. "

"When the Northwind Province is cut off by the empire, this place will belong to me and to Love Weiss."

Earl Weiss laughed loudly. For his dream of a kingdom, it was not impossible to even let cat assassins help the orcs.

But he still couldn't help but feel uneasy. Count Winter's flying wolf cavalry was an extremely rare flying troop. There were not many corps in the empire that could fly in the sky.

"Appia, you cat assassins, you won't let me down, right?"

Count Weiss couldn't help but say, and in the shadow of the forest behind him, a blue cat assassin jumped out.

"My Lord, once we cat assassins lock on to our target, we will never fail."

"Never? You failed once last year."

Count Weiss snorted coldly.

"You can't even kill a child, and you still dare to say that you will never fail. If the baron of the Clayton family died in the North Wind Province, would I, the Earl, have to make a deal with those stupid orcs?"

"If the boy of the Clayton family died in the territory, the empire should re-examine the value of the North Wind Province at the end of the year, and it can also drag the Earl of Clayton and the royal family into the water."

"In that case, even if Grand Duke Meyers doesn't want to give up the North Wind Province, he will face huge pressure and have to compromise."

Apia lowered his head. He didn't know why the mission failed. The assassin who came back told him that the boy couldn't die again.

"Then, sir, are we going to assassinate again? I guarantee that it won't fail this time."

The huge force carrying thunder fell on the thin cat man, and Earl Weiss looked at the cat man slave with a gloomy expression.

"Now that Earl Clayton has returned to the Empire, do you want to involve a powerful earl in the North?"

"It's too late to kill him now."

"You'd better pray that the extraordinary training methods of you cat assassins will not lead this war to a place I don't want to see."

"Follow your will." Appia knelt on the ground in fear.
