Although the assassination of the king caused a huge stir, fortunately, those who knew the inside story were all members of the Royal Knights.

After the Crown Prince issued a gag order, Broll gathered all the knights present and temporarily confined them in the name of secret training.

However, the next day, Bruno did not confer titles on the surrendered imperial nobles as scheduled, which still aroused suspicion among the kingdom's ministers and the nobles who came to visit.

Garrett had no choice but to ask his mother, Queen Windsor, to delay the time for a few days by announcing that Bruno had injured his body due to excessive practice of fighting skills and needed to rest for a period of time.

He informed Ferrens of the successful assassination and began to implement the next plan.

In fact, according to normal procedures, Garrett only needed to announce to the public that Bruno was assassinated, and he could successfully inherit the throne.

The main reason why he is keeping the death a secret is to target Roning.

Ukrainian leader.

After Roning sent Blanche to live in Wubei Territory, he stayed here ever since. While accompanying his pregnant wife, he also learned legendary spells and fighting skills and guided the construction of the railway. Although his life was leisurely, it was not boring.

On this day, when he was discussing the direction of the second railway with Simon, the cry of a griffin was heard in the sky in the distance.

Roning looked over, and with his mental strength and eyesight, he could see that the griffin was wearing protective gear made in Chishan Town.

"It's Tom. Why is he back?"

Luo Ning put down the route map in his hand and said, "Could it be that something urgent happened in Misty City?"

Soon, the griffin landed in front of Ronin.

Today, Tom has become very capable after experiencing several wars and many affairs. In the future, as long as his strength improves, he will definitely become a general under Roning.

"Sir, I just went to the academy to look for you. Madam said you were here, so I rushed over."

Tom jumped off the griffin, gave a polite greeting, and then got straight to the point: "Something's happening in Moore City!"

Luo Ning frowned and asked in disbelief: "Don't tell them to take the initiative to attack?"

It’s been less than seven days since the Chinese New Year, the festive atmosphere hasn’t completely dissipated, and we’re facing the important spring ploughing season. How could the defeated party actually take the initiative to attack?

"Yes sir!"

Tom said in a deep voice: "Commander Ridar doesn't know why they took the initiative to attack, but from the current investigation, at least three knight groups were dispatched from Moore City! Although the speed is not fast, they will be able to reach the outside of Misty City in five days."

There are only three knightly orders. Misty City does not need the support of other nobles and can handle it with its own team.

I am afraid that there is a character like Aruba hidden among these three knight orders.

Now Misty City is Ronin's territory. If the battlefield is set here, it will undoubtedly cause damage to his territory, people and property.

If he accidentally lost the Misty City, he, the newly promoted duke, would lose all his face, and it would even affect the current steady stream of people who came to him to seek refuge.

Luo Ning thought for a moment and said, "Simon, I'll leave the survey of the second line to you. Although I haven't told my grandfather yet, there will be no problem at all in building a railway through Wushan Territory."

"Okay Duke, go ahead and do your work."

Simon put away the route map he had recently surveyed to the swamp town and said, "I can't help you on the front line, but you can rest assured that you can leave this huge railway project to me."

Luo Ning nodded and said to Tom, "I'll give you a day off. Go to Sanfang Town to visit your mother."

"Thank you, sir!" Tom said gratefully.

Roning nodded and flew towards the magic academy. He wanted to inform Blanche first to avoid making her worry.

"My Lord, you don't even need magic to fly now!" Tom exclaimed.

Simon laughed, "You are ignorant. Ronin is now a legend. Flying is instinctive. He naturally does not need magic."

"what?"

Tom's eyes widened. "When did this happen? I didn't even know it!"

Simon was stunned for a moment. He thought everyone knew about this matter, but he didn't expect it to be kept secret.

"Now you know, little brat!"

He patted Tom on the shoulder: "Remember to keep it a secret and don't tell anyone."

Tom was a little dazed.

A legend, an existence that few people have even heard of, now appears in front of him.

Roning told Blanche about this matter. Although Blanche was reluctant to let Roning go to the Misty City, she did not stop him at all.

A rising principality has many affairs that Ronin needs to deal with, not to mention border wars.

Blanche's only hope is probably that her husband is safe.

Ronin asked someone to give Elrond a message before flying towards the Misty City.

Meanwhile, in Wushan Fort.

Lu Lansi fell into deep thought as he looked at the letter sent back by Carolina, the liaison officer he had arranged in Golden Feather City.

"Your Majesty, did you injure yourself while practicing fighting skills?"

A thousand questions flashed through his mind.

Although it was true that some knights had suffered internal injuries due to mistakes while practicing fighting skills, based on his understanding of Bruno, His Majesty the King had already given up practicing and had not put any effort into it a long time ago.

Now he is injured and needs to rest. What is going on?

"Sir, Baron Albert is outside asking for an audience."

Lu Lans put down the letter in his hand and said, "Let him in."

Soon, the Minister of State Affairs of Wushan, who had the courage to break into the Jinyu Palace alone, walked in quickly.

"Good day, my Lord."

As he bowed, he said, "I bring you some bad news."

Lu Lans frowned, ordinary news would not alarm him.

"whats the matter?"

Albert said, "Baron Kabir reported that many unidentified knights have appeared in the border area between Black Pine Mountain and the Principality of Vera recently, especially in the two days after the New Year celebration."

Black Pine Mountain is a recaptured territory now managed by Wiggins' son-in-law, Baron Kabir.

There was a gleam in Lulans' eyes.

The Black Gold Brotherhood was completely wiped out in the last war. Could it be that they are going to make a comeback?

"Andrea..."

Ever since Luo Ning became Jiaoyang, the border of Wushan Territory has experienced a peace that has not been seen in more than 30 years. This is the deterrent power brought by a super strong man.

Now that Ronin is at the peak of his career, would the Principality of Vera suddenly support another second-rate organization to get killed?

Lu Lans lowered his head and saw the letter paper placed aside, and his heart skipped a beat.

"No way!"

He stood up suddenly and paced around the room.

Albert didn't dare to say anything. From the Marquis's expression, he could tell that something big must have happened.

"Go, inform Kabir and ask him to mobilize the Knights of Black Python Castle to cooperate with Knight Petro of Purple Thunder Territory to strengthen the border defense in the near future! Oh, and write to Baron Toru and Viscount Vitorino at the same time, asking them to strengthen the defense of Port Denis."

Albert was stunned for a moment. He could understand the order for Black Pine Mountain and Purple Thunder Territory to strengthen their defenses, but what did the situation on the southeastern border have to do with the Sharp Corner City in the southwest? What enemies were there?

Thinking of this, an identity suddenly emerged in Albert's mind—the Fleming family.

"Yes, my lord!"

Albert did not dare to delay and went to handle it immediately.

Lulans pondered for a while, then hurried to the study and wrote a letter to Roning, explaining his doubts about Bruno's self-injury and his speculation about the anomalies at the border of Black Pine Mountain.

Andrea is not so stupid. Unless he is certain, he will not support any organization and waste his national strength in vain.

"Fortunately, Luo Ning is in Wubei Territory recently. This place is surrounded by the sea on three sides and is behind Wushan Territory. It is very safe."

Lu Lans was not too worried about Roning's safety, he was just a little unsure about the future situation.

What exactly happened in the royal capital?
