Before the sun went down, Colin finally set foot on the land of the east again.
This time, the location he chose to cross the river was still Clover City.
Walking off the trestle and stepping on the wet sand of the port, Colin seemed to be able to smell the blood of those days.
At this time last year, he successfully turned against the Hall family, and burned the Tianma army here, officially opening the prelude to the conquest of the Eastern Territory.
Now that he is revisiting the old place, Colin is also full of emotion.
Earl Hall followed behind Colin and hesitated several times.
Colin stopped at the pier and looked at the transport ships full of soldiers and warhorses on the Furious River. Then he asked Earl Hall:
"How long will it take to transport all the blood cavalry troops across the river?"
"Lord Duke, if we deliver overnight, we can expect to complete the task by noon tomorrow at the earliest."
"Okay, then it's hard work for the soldiers."
"This is what we should do." Earl Hall glanced at Colin, and finally said what he had been hiding in his heart, "Lord Duke, after Eckert's death, Molly didn't send a letter back! It's so unusual, I suspect, that she's probably... under house arrest, or even..."
Colin turned around, patted Earl Hall on the shoulder, and comforted:
"Don't worry, Earl Hall, your daughter, Mrs. Molly, will be fine. Besides, your grandson Eckert is my student, and I will definitely investigate his death.
No matter who planned this conspiracy, I will make him pay the price! "
Earl Hall nodded heavily and said:
"Lord Duke, thank you for your care for the Hall family. During this period of time, I have also borrowed some information from my contacts in the past, which can be used for your reference."
"Oh? Let's talk about it."
"Yes." Earl Hall took a deep breath and then said, "First of all, the main messenger who murdered Eckert should be Marquis Obers."
"Marquis of Orbes?" Colin frowned, apparently never heard of the name.
"Yes, this person is the clan uncle of the last Duke of the Eastern Region. He was also a well-known high-ranking knight in the Glory Empire, but now he is over a hundred years old. I really didn't expect this half foot to step into The old guy from the grave will come out and do something..."
"Do you have any solid evidence to prove it is this person?"
"No. But before Eckert was suddenly 'severely ill', the Marquis of Orbes, who had long been silent, began to inquire about the affairs of the Saint-Pros family, and even convened many old nobles of his generation for a party.
After this gathering, these old nobles from the major families in the Eastern Region also suddenly came to the front again and began to ask about family affairs.
You also know that at this time, most of the lords of the eastern border led their troops to the front line of the Loire Valley, and it was the most empty moment in the family.
A group of old men who should have retired long ago, headed by the Marquis of Orbes, took the opportunity to seize the power of the family. At present, the East Territory has fully entered the era of "old man politics"!
That's why I said that Eckert's death must have something to do with this strange change! "
"Old guy?" Colin rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought.
It seems that Mr. Ho has bewitched these old guys who should have retired long ago, and let them come out to seize power.
But the question is, how did Mr. Ho move these people?
These old guys haven't had a good time for a few days, so what are they still fighting for power and profits?
unless…
Colin immediately thought that for these old guys with half a foot in the grave, the only thing that is attractive is the longevity.
So, Mr. Ho is probably letting these old guys see the hope of continuing their lives, which is why they are willing to take risks and make trouble!
Could it be that Mr. Ho has come up with some new forbidden spell that can help these old guys live?
Gu Xun</span> Thinking of this, Colin reached out and called the accompanying Master Kursius and asked:
"Do you know of any spells that can prolong life?"
"Extend lifespan?" Master Kursius scratched his head and shook his head, "Actually, many mages in Yeville have studied the issue of lifespan. After all, the temptation of immortality is not so great.
But these studies have all ended in failure without exception.
Hey, the length of life is the forbidden area of the gods, and it is not something that mortals can touch. "
Colin asked again:
"Then, do you know whether Mr. Ho has ever conducted any relevant research?"
"Mr. Go..." Master Kursius thought for a while, then shook his head again, "As far as I know, Mr. Go has not conducted any relevant research, and his focus has always been on the [Eye of Judgment]."
Colin nodded silently and did not ask any further questions.
In fact, it is normal to think about it. The research on the arcane art of prolonging life, which can definitely be called the forbidden spell level, must consume a lot of effort and energy. It is impossible for Mr. Ho to research the genius forbidden spell like [Eye of Judgment]. At the same time, there is still enough energy to come up with a forbidden spell to prolong life.
Seeing that Colin was silent for a long time, Kursius asked curiously:
"My lord, why did you suddenly think of asking this?"
Colin recounted the information that Earl Hall had inquired, together with his own guesses.
After hearing that, Kursius was also full of doubts, but he obviously felt that this was not a big problem, so he complimented with a smile:
"Lord Duke, no matter why these old fellows want to help Mr. Ho against you, they are destined to be wishful thinking. As long as the blood cavalry army you lead arrives, they will surely be able to sweep away all obstacles in the eastern border!"
Colin smiled when he heard this.
He actually thought so himself.
There is no army in the East Territory that can fight the Blood Cavalry Army. Even if Mr. Ho can temporarily control the East Territory through these old guys, it is basically a castle on the beach. When the tide comes, it will only collapse.
…
The next day.
The progress of crossing the river was smoother than Earl Hall expected, UU reading www. Just after ten o'clock in the morning on uukanshu.com, all the 30,000 blood cavalry troops came to the east bank of the Furus River.
Colin didn't order to leave immediately, but let the soldiers rest for a while, ready to set off after lunch.
Soon, fumes of cooking smoke rose from the sky above Clover City.
Colin was sitting in the parlour of the church and was about to eat when he saw Maester Yaluger walked in quickly.
Since Colin was made Duke of St. Chapman, Maester Yaluger officially resumed his surname and became Colin's retainer. This time he came to the East, and he also volunteered to accompany him.
"My lord, I just received news that Camilla Saint-Pros and Grace Brugan announced their engagement."
Colin was stunned when he heard the words.
Because Grace was his lover, the two had a wonderful time in Tinder City.
"What is this Camilla?"
"He is the grandson of the Marquis of Orbes, and it is said that he is expected to be elected as the new Duke of the East..."
"When will the Duke of Eastland be his turn to designate!"
Colin sneered, stuffed the rest of the bread into his mouth, and ordered:
"Inform the entire army, set off immediately after the meal, target, Tinder City!"
