The latest website: When the first ice storm from the endless ice sheet entered the Northland, Ferrut became cold and lively all summer again, and those tribes living in the Northland came to this huge city one after another. Overwinter, waiting for the arrival of next spring.

Rock Sixteen is the gate officer of Ferrute, which is hereditary position of his family. Since the day of establishment of the city of Ferrute, his family has always held this position. It can be said that their family has witnessed Ferrute The whole history.

There are a lot of hereditary official families like the Rock family in Ferrute, but few families can be as long as the Rock family. Those families as long as the Rock family are not suitable for urban life like Ferrute and gave up The position has changed back to the tribe, and some have perished for some reason.

The Rock family has been able to serve as a city gate officer for such a long time without any change. Except that every generation of the Rock family members who hold official positions knows how to judge the situation and know who can offend and who cannot provoke, the more important thing is that the Rock family Some literature about Ferrut.

The Rock family was originally a small tribe in the North. When the Knight King built Ferrut, the Rock Tribe did not even have the qualification to participate in the ceremony. The reason why the Chief of the Rock Tribe was able to become a city gate was mainly because The Chief of the Rock, later Rock I was the Knight King’s most trusted student under Earl Phil, and obtained the Knight’s will to record Ferrut’s daily affairs while serving as a gatekeeper.

In order to be able to fulfill the knight king’s will, Panshi I learned the French language attentively, and he was also the first chieftain of the Northland tribe to learn the French language, and also learned to paint. While recording the daily affairs of Ferrut, he He also painted the changes of Ferrut, and this matter was also passed down. Every patriarch of the Rock family, while serving as a city gate officer, also recorded the changes of Ferrut in words and pictures.

It is precisely because their family has so many years of information on Ferrute, making their family's reputation in Ferrute extremely high, and even the royal students of the French Empire need to revise the history of the Northland tribes and need to borrow various materials from their homes. .

Rock Sixteen toured the city gate he was responsible for as usual, then walked up to the city wall, entered a wind observation tower specially built by the Rock family, came to the top and sat next to the long-fired fire, opened the side The window, while looking at the scenery of Ferrute outside the window, carefully painted the scenery on the animal paper on the table.

Similar to this panorama of the city, Rock XVI has painted countless times in the past. From a very young age, after he was selected as the heir, he copied the ancestors’ paintings in the family library every day. Panoramic views of Ferrute. When copying these panoramas, he also had a very detailed understanding of the changes in the city of Ferrut.

At the beginning, Ferrute was only one-twentieth the size of the current city of Ferrute, and now the district of the Tribal Parliament is the city of Ferrute at the time.

According to the records of the ancestors of the Rock family, when the city was built, not all tribes were willing to settle in here. There were fewer than twenty tribes in the entire Northland tribe that followed the will of the Knight King, and among these 20 tribes, Except for the deer horn tribe, the other tribes are small tribes about the same size as the Panshi tribe.

In this regard, the French Empire did not show any strong requirements, giving people a feeling that they did not care about Ferrut.

Because of the attitude of the French empire, several tribes that had already settled here gave up their posts in the city, retreated, and followed the old customs again to spend the winter on the northern ice sheet.

It was not until later that the tribes of the Northland discovered that wintering in Ferrut, with sufficient food, did not have to worry about the cold winds of the Northland, nor did they worry about the benefits of the hungry wild beasts, etc., the Northland tribes gradually joined Into the city of Ferrute.

Because there are a large number of Northland tribes stationed every year, the original size of the city of Firut is not enough to cope with the settlement of so many tribes. Settlement.

To this day, such expansion is still not over. As the population of the Northland tribe increases, more and more people spend the winter in the city of Ferrute, and the city has to expand outwards again and again. In addition to the construction of various settlement buildings, the city walls against wind and snow and beasts were also built, which made Ferro City more than one city wall.

From the tribal parliament area of ​​Ferrut to the outermost walls, there are now 13 walls, which divide the whole city into 13 layers, and the more they live near the inner tribe, they The status of the tribe in the North is also higher.

Everyone who saw the city of Ferrute thought from the heart that it was absolutely a city that could not be broken from the outside, because the walls of thirteen tall and twenty towers were enough to block the attack of any army. Including the legendary French Knights.

In the past, Rock Sixteen thought so, thinking that Ferrut was the most solid city in the world. No one could break it unless it was a god.

But half a year ago, when the new French emperor visited Northland and prepared to choose the Royal Guard from the Northland Warriors as usual, Rock Sixteen and other tribal leaders who were resident in Ferrute only realized their past Those thoughts are multi-mode absurdity, and what can never be broken is a joke.

He still clearly remembers how embarrassed he was when the behemoth appeared in the air, and he was not ashamed about it, because there were many people who acted like him at that time, and several veterans in the tribal council were even Scared of peeing, no one dares to say that he is no longer afraid.

There is no doubt that in front of the behemoth flying in the air, any city wall is in vain, and Ferrut is as vulnerable as an unguarded baby in front of it.

They can only thank the Emperor of France for the sky fortress, and the Emperor of France for Ferrute. Otherwise, they may not be able to stay in this city with peace of mind.

To this day, Rock Sixteen still clearly remembers the scene received by the Emperor of France, and was also awarded the Earl's title for the contribution of the Rock family to the city of Ferrute. He was also the first in the entire Northland tribe to be awarded The family patriarch of the earl.

Originally according to his title, he could easily obtain the identity of a parliamentary veteran, but he rejected the proposal to become a parliamentary veteran and still served as his city gate officer. This does not mean that he did not want to be a noble veteran of the parliament. It is because the ancestral rule of the Rock Family stipulates that the head of the Rock Family is not allowed to hold any other positions except as the gatekeeper of Ferrute, otherwise the status of the patriarch must be removed.

If he becomes a parliamentary veteran, his patriarch's identity will automatically disappear, and he will be handed over to the second person in the family who is eligible to inherit the position of the patriarch. The identity of the earl is bound to the identity of the patriarch and loses the status of patriarch. , He also lost his status as an earl, and naturally he would not be eligible to become a parliamentary veteran, so in the end he was left with only one choice.

At that time, he was also annoyed that he could not become a veteran of the parliament, and even complained from the bottom of his heart about the broken rules left by his ancestors, but now he is extremely grateful for the ancestor's decision, and he also repudiated this family rule that he once rejected Incomparable trust, that this is the reason why the Rock family can be based in this city.

He still remembers that just after the emperor of France left, more than 20 tribal chiefs claimed the position of parliamentary elders by virtue of their newly acquired noble status, and after becoming parliamentary elders, they fought immortally with the original parliamentary elders in secret. The battle continued with and became bigger and bigger, eventually turning into a civil war in Ferrute's permanent tribe.

In this civil war that lasted for half a month, except for the Rock family who did not participate, all the families in the city participated, and a large number of people died every day. At the end, more than 70 permanent tribe families finally There are only more than forty.

Those disappearing family tribes were either wiped out by the enemy family, or they were defeated in the battle, and they took the others out of Ferrut and returned to tribal life.

These urban families who have returned to the tribe have nothing to do with the Shixin family. They still retain a lot of ability to spend the winter in the north, but for those tribes that have completely become urban families, their escape is just a lingering breath. They could not get any supplies from Ferrute in the winter, and they did not have the ability to spend the winter in the Northland. All they waited for was death.

The severity of Ferrut’s civil war also alarmed other tribes in the North, because both the remaining families and the families that have disappeared and fled have more or less kinship with them. The tribe and the middle tribe sent people to Ferrut to deal with the matter before the winter.

And this matter can not be dealt with by the tongues of several tribes. The family of Ferrut also has extraordinary background, and will not easily relax, but with the subsequent Northland tribes came to the city of Ferrut, north The growing power of the local tribes eventually made Ferrut’s family gradually relax. Half a month ago, they promised not to pursue those who fled the family and return the property and some of the property of those family settlements, of course, if those families are willing to return To Ferrute.

After announcing this decision half a month ago, they asked the merchant tribe to disperse the decision to the Northland. As a result, until the last merchant tribe Longhorn Tribe returned to Ferrute for winter three days ago, there was only one family who fled. Arriving in Ferrut, the other families seemed to intend to die unyieldingly.

Those families who did not die were indeed respected by many tribes, which also made them secretly send a lot of materials for these families to spend the winter, provided that they can find a shelter in the winter that can shelter from the wind.

Thinking about things, Rock XVI completed a new panorama of Ferrut, and then, as long as it is appropriate, it can be added to the family library with a little color.

Just as Ferrute took the paint from the cabinet next to him and prepared to paint the picture, the quarrel from the gate below ruined his good mood.

He closed the window, put the picture on the bookshelf next to him, walked out of the small room at the top of the tower and walked down the stairs to the wall.

At this time, some people had been surrounded by the gate of the city. Some people dressed in obvious tribes were arguing with the guards of the gate. Careful Rock XVI saw the tribal people’s totem poles on the sledges of the tribes. See the shape of the pillars. It should be from the Longhorn tribe.

However, what attracted the attention of Rock Sixteen was the bloodstained leather bags on the sleds of these long-horned tribes. Because of his many years of experience, it can be seen that these animal skin bags are definitely filled with It’s a human head, and if you count the numbers a little, there are nearly a hundred people.

This immediately made him think of some bad things, and his mind subconsciously guessed that some families in the city hired these merchant tribes who were familiar with the terrain of the Northland to pursue those families who were running away.

I thought of the unhappy look on the face of Rock Sixteen here. Although the Northland tribes could not help fighting each other, they would not kill the enemy tribes. Such a thing as buying a murder is a taboo. So, he already had a very bad impression of the people of the Longhorn Tribe. He decided in his heart that no matter who was standing behind the Longhorn Tribe, he would also teach these people who broke the rules.

"What happened? Why is it blocked at the gate of the city?" A pair of Panshi 16-style men who had just arrived and did not understand the situation came to the crowd and asked.

"Adult~lightnovelpub.net~ It's none of our business, this thing is that they are making trouble for no reason." Seeing the boss appeared, the captain of the goalkeeper breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly explained: "According to the rules, we must check all When we want to check the bags of the city, they stop us and blame us for not respecting their customs."

The man headed by the Longhorn Tribe immediately stood up and explained: "This lord, we are from the Longhorn Tribe, not that we are making unreasonable troubles, because these things are all our prey to participate in the winter winter patrol. Once these bags are opened, these The prey’s qualifications will also be lost, and we’re going to go this way in vain.”

"Winter Winter Tour?" Rock Sixteen froze for a moment, looked at the people of the long horn tribe next to them, and found that they were all young people, and no one except the person headed by them had passed the Winter Warrior Seal. , So he believed this man's words a bit, but he still asked: "When did your longhorn tribe's winter patrol treat people as prey?"

"People?" The person headed by the Longhorn Tribe was startled, and quickly said, "Sir, you are wrong, these are not people."

Speaking, he may feel that this alone cannot convince Rock XVI, so he opened one of the pockets and let the contents of the pockets be revealed.
