Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 12 Ofnir
"Your Highness, the general situation is like this." Egg Kiss reported to Lucia.

Lucia didn't answer immediately, but just motioned Egg Kiss to take a seat on his left, while he leaned on his chin lightly and fell into long-term thinking.

In the royal tent, no matter whether it was the elders Merrell and Yatok who sat first on the left and right, or Guerrell, Egg Kiss, Olvins, Anacia and others who were lined up one after another, they did not take the lead. The meaning of vocalization.Everyone was either silent or thinking, but they all waited for Lucia's instructions in unison.

This situation had never happened many times before in the missions. Lucia had always treated these important ministers whose qualifications and strength were far superior to hers. Lucia had always been lenient, and the process of negotiating and decision-making was also communicated with everyone as equal as possible.

However, the situation this time is completely different from the past. What is before them is not the internal affairs of the Gulong Dynasty. The power struggle of most of the nobles in the entire Golden Dynasty.Under the current world structure where the golden tree is overwhelming the world, the impact of this turmoil can even easily affect the entire continent.

Therefore, not to mention these few people in the imperial tent, even if the seven elders of the Senate and the two priests of the Sky Temple are here, it is absolutely impossible to speak out before Lucia, otherwise it is no different from usurping.

"Elder Morrell, how much do you know about the foundation of the Offnell family?" Lucia asked after considering it.

Elder Morrell, who was seated first on the left, was a hale and hearty old man. At the age of 870, he was considered the oldest group of Dragon Clans after the Forbidden War, and he was also the most senior among the elders. one of the bits.

In his long life, Merrell witnessed the recovery and rise of many civilizations after the war, and also witnessed the battle of the gods that determined the ownership of the borderland from the perspective of a bystander—from this perspective, no matter whether it is in full swing The current Golden Dynasty is still the Kalia Dynasty, which dominates the western land, and it is nothing more than a rising star in front of the long-established Dragon Clan.

"Ofnir?" The old man pondered for a while, and said, "Your Highness should already know that the fief of the Consul Hector is in the town of Lunt in the Yatan area. His eldest brother, Marquis Osarion, and second brother Luo Viscount Vince served as the deputy commander of the Northern Legion of the Golden Dynasty and the city supervisor of Rodell. These three brothers nominally drifted away from the old and new factions in the DPRK and China, but they were actually members of the new party, especially Viscount Rowens. ——The old minister heard that he and His Royal Highness Greco got very close."

"Greco?" Lucia raised his eyebrows, "When did he become a member of the New Party?"

These days, he is trying to make up for the internal political situation of various countries in the mainland, and he also has a little understanding of the so-called struggle between the old and new parties in the Golden Dynasty.The leader of the old party is the "Eternal Queen" Malika, the final winner of the battle of the gods, while the new party is headed by the new king Radagon who ascended the throne of Elden more than ten years ago. Most of them rose in the unification war The military aristocrats of the period advocated the fundamentalism of the golden law to replace the original doctrine of the golden tree, and took more severe measures against all forces that did not belong to the golden tree.

However, he couldn't understand why this guy, Greco, would join the ranks of the new party. If the vast majority of nobles in Rodel had to choose sides in the two parties, then Greco was definitely one of the few people who didn't need to stand.

At least from the present point of view, no matter whether the new party or the old party, they will only support the golden prince Godwin as the next successor of the Golden Dynasty. It is clear that horses and horses ran into the new party, and created political enemies for themselves out of thin air?

"Your Highness doesn't know something," Elder Morrell coughed twice with embarrassment, "This His Highness Greg has always been quite independent in his behavior. I heard that His Majesty Malika and His Highness Godwin have always intended to make him a part of the old and the new factions." However, he seems to be born with contempt for many races outside the gold system, and more than once declared in public that His Majesty Malika's golden tree teachings are too loose, so that many vulgar and dirty people can also bathe in the golden tree. Under the brilliance of the tree and so on. After several times, the members of the old party will naturally find it hard to tolerate."

Lucia was stunned for a moment, then turned her consulting gaze to the rest of the people, "Is this really the case?"

"That's true," Agnes echoed, "His Highness Godwin tried to let His Highness Greg gradually take over the command of the Furnace Knights, but after what Elder Morrell said, several Furnace Knights of mixed race Conscious of being insulted, the Chief of Ordopis even had a special meeting with His Royal Highness Godwin. This matter was not a secret in the whole of Rodel at that time. After that, the leader of the personal guard next to His Royal Highness Greg was changed from the Furnace Knight to the Rodel Knight. , the matter of taking over the command will be over."

"Talent, what a talent!" Lucia tried her best to suppress the dumbfounding expression on her face, and said in her heart speechless.

He thought about the fact that the Lord Stonewell, who cut off the arms and legs of the original owner and grafted them onto himself, regardless of race, hadn't had such a picky taste. Now this kind of face that wants to tell the world that no one looks down on him , probably because he hasn't been beaten by society yet?
Thinking of this, he probably also understood why Hector would put on such a domineering and rude attitude to him—this family can get along with Greck, obviously they are also fanatics in the New Party. The degree to which Ren oppresses the surrounding demi-humans and hybrids is also enough to prove Hector's own position on foreigners.

Regardless of whether there is direct instruction from the New Party or even Greg himself, if he hadn't been a demigod after all, Sky City wouldn't be a cat or dog that can be bullied, maybe even this temporary camp wouldn't exist.

"By the way," he turned his attention to Merrell again, "Has the elder heard of a Sir Gideon in the Offnell family?"

After hearing this name, the old man thought for a while, shook his head seriously and said: "If it is a side branch veteran who has no title, he may not be impressed, but there is absolutely no such person among the nobles above the knighthood."

"That's it"

"However, if Your Highness is sure that there is such a person, after we arrive in Rodel, the old minister can visit a few old friends and look up the Offnir genealogy in the early days of the Unification War for Your Highness," the old man said suddenly, "There was an Austrian family back then. The Fnir tribe followed His Majesty the King of War, and after Gaelid's Eastern Expedition, they were also exiled to the other side of the mist with the King of War—the Sir Gideon you mentioned may be one of them."
