Accompanied by a loud friction sound, the heavy door made of fir was slowly pushed open, and two guards stood one on the left and one on the right in front of the two door panels carved with intricate and exquisite patterns, and the light from outside shone in. Inside the originally dark treasure room, a golden path was instantly reflected on the floor paved with precious piebald stones.

A man led four attendants slowly into the treasure room along the golden road.

The man was tall and tall, wearing a gorgeous velvet robe, his curly brown hair was naturally scattered behind his back, his eyes were bright and deep, and there was a heroic look between his brows and eyes. Now he had a serious expression on his face, very Follow the light solemnly into the depths of the treasure room.

"It's too dark," the man waved to the guards following him, "Light some candles."

The last two guards immediately walked to the left and right respectively, and with the peripheral light coming from the door, each lit a row of candles that had been placed there.

The entire treasure room suddenly lit up, revealing its true face.

Pieces of precious utensils, boxes of ancient coins, and all kinds of weapons and armors that look like they were written by masters filled a room in Nuo Da, and the walls around the room were covered with precious paintings.

But the man had no interest in these priceless treasures, so he walked straight along the central axis of the treasure room until he reached the end wall.

In front of the wall was a rectangular table about 2 meters long and 1 meter wide. On the table was an object, which was tightly covered with red silk cloth.

The man stretched out his right hand and picked up a corner of the silk cloth and slowly opened it, a frightening cold light burst out. It turned out that under the silk cloth was a golden sword stand, and a simple long sword was quietly placed on it.

The man held the hilt and held the ancient long sword in front of his eyes.

"My ancestors used this sword to establish the current Principality of Inton."

The man, or the ruler of the Duchy of Inton, Grand Duke Eteote Cabre, said so to himself.

"Now, I will use it again to defend the people of Indon."

He held the long sword and swung it in front of him, a stream of light appeared in midair.

"Holy Sword-Sironimus, please give us strength again."

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded from behind.

"Your Majesty, has the situation reached such a dangerous point?"

The voice was gentle and soft, but with unconcealable worry.

The Grand Duke Cabre turned around and looked at his beautiful wife, the Grand Duke Helen who was once known as the famous jewel of the corner bay.

He frowned and asked, "Helen, why are you here?"

His wife replied: "I know you haven't fallen asleep, so I haven't slept either. I saw you get up just now, so I followed."

"Oh!" Cabrell sighed, "Sorry for worrying you."

Helen came to him, "What are you talking about, you are my husband, if you have something on your mind, how can I be at peace."

Cabrew waved his hand to summon the attendant, and inserted the ancient long sword into the scabbard held by the attendant.

The young Grand Duke said anxiously: "The church's army has approached Hydera. I estimate that they will appear under the walls of Hydera in less than a week."

Helen asked suspiciously: "Isn't our army coming back from the Horn Bay Alliance soon?"

In order not to make her worry, her husband always acted confident in front of his wife. If it wasn't for a trustworthy person who told her the truth today and saw a large number of people fleeing the city for refuge when traveling in microservices, she would not have Knowing that the situation has taken a sudden turn for the worse.

Alas, man.

Cabrez spread his hands helplessly and said: "It will take time for them to come back. Garris wrote in a letter saying that the Horn Bay Alliance refused to let them go at first, and did not provide them with the supplies they needed on the way back. In the end, Garris found a way to raise their own money." Only a batch of supplies can be left."

The original massive crusade against the church and the Protestant coalition forces of the inland countries was about to fall apart because of the "armed excuse" of the cataracts against the neutral countries in the north that did not speak martial arts.

"Your Majesty!" Helen's eyes were filled with tears, and the anxiety revealed by her husband completely letting go of his disguise made her feel very distressed, "If it doesn't work, then don't fight with the church. We don't care about new sects or old sects. Yin Dun will be quiet. Be quiet and stay neutral."

"Oh, my dear, you are so naive." Cabre said: "The destruction of neutral countries such as Jeb is just around the corner. The church can do anything to wipe out the [heretics] along the coast as soon as possible."

Of course, the national strength of Yin Dun is not comparable to that of small countries such as Yebu, so it is not impossible for Yin Dun to carry out the so-called armed neutrality, but the Grand Duke has other reasons why he cannot be neutral.

"Take a step back, even if the church accepts Inton's neutrality, what will you and Fanny do? The church has long been eyeing you two sisters, and the incident in Nessburg, Fanny's real situation has long been known by them Grasp. If the church allows Inton to be neutral on the condition that I hand over you and Fanny, do you think I can agree to such a condition?"

As spellcasters, Helen and her younger sister, Fanny, were the thorn in the side of the church. The initial reason for the outbreak of this war was the huge differences between the church and the coastal countries in hunting wizards. When the differences were not obvious or just emerged, the church They still chose to hold back because they belonged to the ruling class of a country, but now it has changed. The church that has already torn its face and officially started fighting will definitely not turn a blind eye to a witch with such status and influence.

"Your Majesty." Helen was deeply moved by what her husband said, and tears filled her eyes instantly.

"Don't worry, Helen, with me here, no one can do anything to you and Fanny."

Cabret patted his chest~lightnovelpub.net~ and once again showed the confident look he had in front of his wife.

The Grand Duke raised the long sword named "Sironimus" and said: "The power of the ancestors will protect me, and I will use it to kill all enemies who dare to attack."

But he changed the subject and said: "However, you have to promise me that you will leave Hydera with Fanny for a while and go south. I have already selected the guards for you, and you will wait until Hydera becomes safe..."

"No!" Before the Grand Duke finished speaking, Helen covered her husband's mouth and refused firmly.

"Fanny, you can send her away, but I must stay by your side."

Grand Duke Cabret still tried to persuade: "Oh, don't be so impulsive..."

"Don't worry!" Helen looked into her husband's eyes and said in a relaxed tone as much as possible:

"Someone can help us through this."
