Elf brother as my tool man

"The Zanko family. From the year 1053 of the Holy Light Calendar to the present." Opening the title page of the chronicle, Qiao Chenxi read, "Published in the year 1123 of the Holy Light Calendar." "That is ten years ago." Xiaofang agreed. "Zanko, this word seems to mean valley in ancient human language." Qiao Chenxi pondered, "It seems that this family was called Zanko because it was sealed to the left bank of the river valley." "The founder of the family, Gu As a gift from God, Theo von Zenko followed the vassal in the war, recaptured the left bank area of ​​the valley from the rebels, and was named Marquis of the Left Bank of the Valley. From then on, the Zenko family first emerged." The entire book is written in Elvish, the common language of the nobles. It has that grand feeling.The chronicle records a total of 1053 years from 1123 to 70, but because the events before 1100 were long ago, the two skipped this content. "In 1103, Marquis Ludwig von Zenko of the left bank of the valley fought bravely in the sectarian war under the leadership of Otto Peko, the Sevier lord, and was named Duke of the South Sevier Valley." Qiao Chenxi pointed to an illustration with an illustration. page, read aloud. "Isn't the vassal king in 1103 the father of Meixin?" Xiaofang thought, "Meixin said that his father succeeded to the throne in 1100." "Look, in this illustration, the vassal king is holding a weapon and giving orders. The army looks so heroic, completely different from the decadent old man now." Qiao Chenxi sighed. "Duke of the South Sevier Valley, what kind of title is this?" Xiaofang turned around and asked. "The dukes in the Ewut Empire are basically honorary titles, and they are basically awarded only after they have no title." Qiao Chenxi introduced, "If Meixin's father had a territory that could be divided, he would not give it to Hehe This title was granted to the Marquis of the Left Bank." "In 1105, the Duke of South Sevier Valley and the Left Bank of the Valley repelled the attack of the evil sect. In 1109, the Duke repelled the attack of the evil sect again. In 1111, the duke was blocked when blocking the attack of the evil sect. "Xiaofang kept reading aloud and turning the pages. Finally, after a few pages, the two of them saw an illustration again.The illustration shows two strong men, one of whom is the feudal king, and the other, needless to say, must be the "Duke of the South Sevier Valley".The two people are raising their swords and swearing an oath to form an "eternal alliance."The two people in the picture are full of excitement and ambition. "Isn't the Duke a vassal of the vassal? How could there be an alliance between a lord and a vassal?" Xiaofang frowned. "Logically speaking, the Marquis of Breeze Valley is still a vassal of the vassal. Is it useful? No. I say, it is more useful to form an alliance." Qiao Chenxi smiled helplessly, "Read the small print next to it." "1111 In 1112, the Duke summoned the vassal to fight against the enemy. The two formed an alliance in the city of Pravot on the left bank of the river valley. After the Battle of the Valley of Desolation, they defeated the evil sect and recovered a large amount of land in Lower Seville. The Duke and the vassal immediately recruited explorers. Draw the 1114 edition of Seville's complete atlas." Xiaofang read. "There was such a story." Qiao Chenxi took out the atlas, and in the "Acknowledgments" column on the last page of the atlas, the names of the vassal king and the duke were written. "The vassal king used to be a talented and strategic monarch." Xiaofang sighed. "If the Duke is still alive, then the vassal king may not be so embarrassed." Qiao Chenxi boldly guessed that the Duke in the painting has passed away. "In 1117, the Duke built many fortresses in the wasteland on the left bank of the river valley, dividing knights and clans." Xiaofang turned the page and read slowly. "It seems that this place was a fortress he built at that time." Qiao Chenxi understood the origin of this place. "Sister Chenxi, look carefully, there are many fortresses." Xiaofang pointed to the words in the book, "Why does the chronicle use such vague and solemn words?" "Maybe, he built many fortresses." Qiao Chen Xi originally wanted to skip this word, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be very knowledgeable. "I think the person who recorded the chronicle is probably hinting at something to us." Xiaofang shook his head. "Turn down." Seeing that there were only a few pages left in the chronicle, Qiao Chenxi nodded. "In 1123, the three major princely states that the vassal king entrusted in the Lower Seville area fell. The marquisdom on the left bank of the river valley accepted many Lower Seville, refugees and civilians." Xiaofang read word by word, the speed became slower and slower, "Morning Light Sister, will the chronicles write about those not-so-good things?" "Some won't, and some will be written in a more understandable form." Qiao Chenxi considered her words. "I strongly suspect that these so-called refugees are actually refugees," Xiaofang said suspiciously. "Actually, it was probably this wave of evil sect believers that infiltrated." Qiao Chenxi sighed, "But at that time, they didn't dare to cause trouble, otherwise we wouldn't be able to see this chronicle published in 1122." "They couldn't be. You came in this way, right?" Xiaofang pointed on the map book to the path drawn by Qiao Chenxi that led from the Lower Seville area into their fortress. "It's very possible." Qiao Chenxi nodded. "In 1123, Duke Ludwig von Zenko died and Duke Heinrich von Zenko succeeded to the throne." After Xiaofang finished reading this sentence, she realized that the next page was the last page of the chronicle, and the content recorded in this book was also It's over. "There is no information about the owner of this fortress." Qiao Chenxi turned to look at the dusty living room and sighed. "Maybe the owner here is a descendant of the family and there is no record here." Xiaofang wiped the ashes on the back cover of the chronicle and put it back in the drawer. "I think, as a family chronicle, if a general family branch is sealed in a fortress as a knight, it is enough to be recorded in the family chronicle." Qiao Chenxi thought, "Unless they have already been I lost my fortress." "Abandoned." Xiaofang had an ominous premonition in her heart. "You mean" "Yeah." Qiao Chenxi nodded, "In [-], about ten years ago. , the Duke's territory should be being eroded by evil believers, and quite a few Zanko family members' fortresses have been captured." "I understand, at that time, the fortress we were in had not fallen, and if we look at the terrain, It is difficult to attack this fortress from the outside." Xiaofang suddenly realized. "I must explain that even now, this fortress has not been breached." Qiao Chenxi agreed with Xiaofang's conclusion, "It's just that the owner of this fortress and all the defenders inside have been killed." "Dead in action." Xiaofang was quite surprised by Qiao Chenxi's conclusion, "How could you see it?" "They died outside the fortress, and none of them came back." Qiao Chenxi sighed, "The evil sect did it very simply. It seems that they have completely figured out the Zenko family’s background.”
