Li Jiya was holding the photo in her hand and was extremely shocked.

The clarity of the magic image represents the level of the caster's magic power. The more powerful the magic image recorded by the magic image is, the higher the clarity of the magic image.

In this photo, the sleeping woman is clearly visible even in her hair, which shows how terrible the magic power of the person who recorded the magical image is.

The woman inside is herself, and the shooting location is the chair Yan Xing sat on.

Lijiya imagined that Yanxing used magic to record his sleep state while she was sleeping soundly, and felt that she was performing a mortal task.

"Since Knight Yanxing is not here, it's time for me to go back. Thank you for the hospitality..." Li Jiya hurriedly left.

When I got on the carriage back, I realized that I was still holding the blanket.

I don't know who covered it for myself.

Lijiya put the blanket on her legs and held the photo with her hands and looked at it carefully.

On the other hand, Yanxing was indeed called to the lord's mansion by Count Theodore.

In a room where the fireplace had been lit, Earl Theodore sat in a chair beside the fire, holding a glass of red wine in his hand.

Yanxing sat opposite the old earl and watched the butler pour a glass of wine for himself.

The old count said: "This kind of castle with stones is very hard, but also very wet. If it is not dried in late autumn, it will snow heavily in winter, and it will be like an ice cave."

Yan Xing picked up the wine glass and said to the old count, "Then I will let someone roast my castle when I go back. Tutor, you have become much older during this period..."

A smile appeared on the obviously old count's face and shook his head and said, "It's great to be able to live until now. As long as I can persevere until winter comes, I can rest well.

I was told that you brought a werewolf cavalry into the city.”

While Count Theodore manages logistics for the Storm Highlands Legion, he also has his own intelligence channels.

Yanxing's troops in Newta City have reached the prescribed maximum of 500 people. There are about 400 guards from other Eternal Chambers and Eternal Grain Stores, and there are 300 soldiers who are trained in the Newta City barracks.

If we count the military strength hidden by the Eternal Intelligence Exchange and the stakeholder families, the number of troops that Yanxing can mobilize in Newta City is definitely not a small number.

In addition, the Eternal Travel Trading Company will have 3,000 people trained in a manor in the north of Newta City, and the weapon used is muskets.

A weapon like a musket is a goblin thing.

However, the muskets equipped by the mercenaries of Yansheng Trading Association are significantly more powerful than those used by goblins.

The rate of fire is much faster.

News came from the Eternal Leader that the werewolf group that was dependent on Yanxing showed signs of preparation for war.

If the Thunder Swamp army heads south at this time, Newta City cannot withstand this kind of attack of internal and external cooperation.

Some rumors about the Thunder Swamp attacking Newta City are circulating in the city, and some officials also told the old count that they should be wary of Yan Xing, whose power has skyrocketed.

The possible threat from the north made Count Theodore very afraid of Yanxing at this time.

"Yes, I brought a werewolf to the city today." Yan Xing did not deny his open entry into the city. He continued, shaking the red wine in his wine glass: "I think there will definitely be major things in Newta City these days, and I have so many industries in the city that I cannot be without enough warriors to protect it."

"What news did you hear?" asked Count Theodore.

Yan Xing took a sip of wine and replied to the old count: "Teacher, your information should be more informative than mine. Even I can feel the tension in Newta City, and you cannot not know it.

Your city lord's mansion not only needs to make a fire to roast the moisture inside, but also send guards to prevent evil spirits from coming in."

His lifelong battles and rich political experience let the old earl know that when the war is about to end, there must be a group of demons dancing around.

Everyone wants to seek the best interests for themselves at this point in time.

A big chaos in Newta City is near.

And what role will Yanxing play in this chaos?

The old count couldn't guess.

Therefore, he called Yanxing here and made a judgment based on what he said and what he did.

However, Yan Xing obviously grew much more than when he met for the first time.

At that time, he was already a little fox.

Count Theodore said: "It is much easier to investigate your eternal lord than to investigate all parties in Newta.

After all, your territory is there, and those who are malicious are hidden deeper than the other.

Besides, Storm City has drawn too many people from me, so it is difficult for me to grasp the movements of those people now, which is very dangerous.

If you still think I am your ally, please tell me what you know.”

"I have always been your ally, my mentor." Yan Xing raised his glass to pay tribute to Earl Theodore, and then said, "I found something.

The Giant Front Mercenary Group and the Fal Lion Mercenary Group each gathered a large number of mercenaries, and there will be a large-scale battle in Newta City in the near future.

Behind them are the ‘short gun’ and the temple.

Short gun... is a mercenary organization that colludes with orcs. I don't know why the two families fought, but fighting in Newta City must have caused chaos.

Recently, there have been many rumors in Newta City about Thunder Swamp, saying that we will attack Newta City.

I'm investigating."

At this time, Count Theodore suddenly asked: "Is this rumor true or false..."

There was a sudden chill in the room.

The two looked at each other.

Suddenly Yanxing laughed: "What reason do I have to capture Newta City?"

Earl Theodore instantly gained enlightenment.

Land is not something that is urgent for Yanxing now. There are large areas in the Thunder Swamp that have not been developed.

What he needs is money.

Develop the Thunder Swamp and Eternal Lottery Money.

Newta City is now a window for Yanxing to make money, and the Eternal Chamber of Commerce and Eternal Grain Store are making a fortune for him.

After the war ended, the roads between the windy highlands and the principality's land were smooth.

The Eternal Walking Trading Association formed by Yanxing will give more wealth to him.

If Thunder Swamp captures Newta City, it will declare war on the Duchy of Silvermane. He owns a city where wealth is quickly exhausted and goes to war with the Duchy of Silvermane, which is completely unworthy of the loss.

Unless Newta City is controlled by a person who is hostile to Thunder Swamp, Thunder Swamp will never directly occupy Newta City during its development period.

After figuring this out, Count Theodore laughed.

"I'm old, I'm old... I'm getting more and more confused. After hearing a few rumors, I began to doubt you. It's me wrong.

I also noticed the abnormal movements of the mercenaries in recent days.

If you lead the temple and the "short gun" inside, there will probably be some private soldiers of nobles participating.

Behind the temple is the Griffin Heart Empire. What our emperor wants to see most is the Silver Mane Principality completely throws away the strong winds.

Their big moves mean that they found that the battle situation in the windy highlands would develop in a direction that was unfavorable to the empire.

But... Since the ‘short gun’ serves orcs, why did it fight with the people in the temple?”

Earl Theodore couldn't figure it out, and Yanxing couldn't figure it out either.

Logically speaking, although the "short gun" and the temple are their own, they should cooperate if they have the same interests.

Don't worry about them for now, let Chuhua continue to check.

Then Yanxing talked to the old count about Carol ordering 200,000 sets of cotton coats and quilts from him.

"I don't know if Carol had other purposes for condemning me for 200,000 yuan, so I didn't tell you at that time.

But when I gave her the sample of the bedding, she paid the deposit very simply.

These covers are really prepared for the future expansion of the Storm Highland Legion.”

Upon hearing this news, Count Theodore realized the seriousness of the problem.

Expand the Storm Highland Legion!

It was certainly not for the expansion of the Storm Highlands Legion controlled by Marquis Anderson.

This shows that the Principality is already implementing a plan to seize power, and the success rate of this plan is very high.

Earl Theodore immediately stood up and walked to the highland tactical map next to him.

Yanxing also followed him.

The old Count pointed to the city and signs on the map and said to Yanxing: "Marquis Anderson is at this time to resist the orcs in Angek Fort, and behind Angek Fort is Storm City.

To the south of Storm City is the highland channel connecting the main land of the Principality. At this time, the Duchy's army had already completed assembly at the other end of the highland channel.

This is an army ready to climb the windy high ground at any time and control the situation of the war.

In what way is the Duke of Silvermane ready to seize the military power of Marquis Anderson?

Assassination? Coup? Raid?

At this time, Marquis Anderson's control over Storm City was reduced to a minimum, and it was also the weakest and unstable time for the Legion of the Storm Highlands."
