Chapter 215 North Wind City

Solo Earldom, North Wind City.

This is a large city that stands in the northern hinterland of the Kingdom of Fes, and is also the core of Earl Solo's territory.

The reason why it is not named after the lord family like Kuka City is because before the first Earl of Solo was granted the title here, Beifeng City had been standing in the cold wind of the north for many years. It is also the transportation center of the north. An extremely important city on the main road.

Count Solo's castle is located on the southernmost hillside of North Wind City. The dark gray exterior walls have been blown away by the cold wind.

In the secret study of the castle.

Ignatius stood aside with his hands down, his face covered in dust and tired, as if he had just experienced a long journey.

This is indeed the case. After getting Li Si's permission to leave the Fes caravan, Ignoth rushed directly to North Wind City with Master Sirui without even looking at Rashid.

Working hard and traveling day and night, the caravan's five-day journey was completed in two days.

Without enough time to take a breath, Il'gynos threw the fainted Sirui mage to the servants of the castle, and he went directly to Count Solo.

Ignatius had just told Count Solo everything that had happened. He didn't hide anything at all. He even told everything about his feelings.

Ander Solo was leaning on the sofa, listening to Ignoth's narration.

This is the current Count Solo, who looks to be only forty years old and in his prime. If Li Si were here, he would know that his real age is already about sixty years old.

Because this is a gold-level monk who has entered the realm of returning to his original nature!

When his appearance looks like that of a twenty-year-old, it means that he has broken through to the realm of legend.

Just like that [Broken Mountain] Alvin Dern.

Ender rubbed his temples, feeling a little headache.

He took out a Dannemann cigar from the humidor, but this time, he did not light it, but tapped it up and down in his hand.

Ignatius didn't make a sound, just stood aside quietly.

The only sound in the room was the sound of breathing and the whistling of the north wind through the cracks in the window.

The cold iron tree bookshelf unique to the northern part of the Fes Kingdom and the faint fragrance of the books on it linger in the study room, giving it a quiet atmosphere.

After a long time, Ander Solo spoke up and said to Ignatius:

"Sit down, thank you for being in such a hurry to come back."

Upon hearing this, Ignatius just bowed slightly and did not sit down to rest.

As the chief steward of the Solo family, it is his code to always be strict with himself.

Ender didn't care either. The butler had followed him since he was a child and naturally knew his character. He shook his head and said:

"You're doing great, there's no problem."

"Last time, after I learned that there were so many things happening in Bright Light City, I wrote a letter specifically to ask the teacher."

"This Marquis Kane is more complicated than I thought!"

Ender sighed, lit the cigar in his hand, took a puff, raised his head and leaned on the sofa, slowly exhaling light blue smoke.

"Ignos, go and prepare some gifts, something more expensive."

"Let's arrange for someone to be sent to Viscount Kuka to cancel Reiner's engagement."

"I really didn't expect that Marquis Kane would come to the North at this time. Is something big going to happen?"

Ender couldn't help but ignore it. As far as he knew, Marquis Kane was deeply involved in all the major events that happened in Bright Light City. He came to the north when the Kingdom of Fes and the Kingdom of Berdych declared war. Is there anything special?

No, if something happens, the teacher should tell me specifically.

What an eventful year~

Ender sighed, feeling a little headache.

To be honest, he didn't really care about the engagement. If his eldest son Reiner hadn't been addicted to magic and couldn't help himself, he wouldn't have agreed to the marriage with Viscount Kuka's daughter.

After all, this kid Reiner is in his forties and is still unmarried, so he just needs magic as his wife.

"Also, did you say that Lis Kane will arrive in Beifeng City in five days?"

"Yes, that's what Roquet, the head of the Fes Caravan, told me. It will probably be three days later."

Ignatius nodded and replied.

"Preparing a dinner, I want to invite the Marquis of Kane to attend."

Ander calmly ordered that since Li Si would be here in a few days, he could do a little test then.

"Yes, Lord Ender."

Ignos nodded to indicate that he understood, and then asked hesitantly:

"Lord Ender, Master Reiner's side"

"Don't worry about him."

Ender said angrily:

"He couldn't be happier that the engagement was cancelled, boy."

Even though Reiner was forty years old, in Ender's eyes he was still a little kid without a family.

"I understand, Master Ender, then I will make arrangements first."

Ignos bowed, gently closed the door and exited the study.

Monitoring the movements of the Dillon Kingdom?

Ender sighed and frowned.

Alas, this task assigned by the teacher is really not easy!

——

Beifeng City, somewhere in the basement.

"Lord Seth, why are you here in Beifeng City?"

A middle-aged man wearing civilian clothes invited Seth, who was tightly wrapped in a black cloak, into the house and asked in a low voice.

"Ur, this is a task assigned by His Majesty the King and Lord Anner. Don't ask any more questions."

Seth said in a low voice, with a hint of warning in his words.

"Yes, Lord Seth, it was me who was offended."

Ur quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake.

Seth was his immediate boss, the leader of the Dilon Kingdom's intelligence organization lurking in the northern border of the Fes Kingdom. Naturally, he did not dare to disobey orders.

"Bring over all the intelligence that has been collected recently, especially about the movements of the nobles in Bright Light City and the North."

Seeing Ur's obedient look, Seth nodded and said.

"Yes, sir."

Ur replied immediately, then hesitated.

"Sir Seth, the previous information is stored here, but the information from other strongholds in the past two months has not been sent over. This."

Seth frowned. The intelligence base in North Wind City was quite special. Because of its special geographical location, the intelligence bases deployed by the Kingdom of Dillon in the southern part of the northern border would all send their intelligence here and then uniformly transmit it back to the kingdom.

Master Anner asked himself to bring back all the recent information. It would be inappropriate to leave out this part.

"How long will it take to collect them all?"

Ur heard this and immediately replied:

"I will inform you now. It is estimated that it will only take five days to deliver the farthest stronghold."

Five days is okay, it's better than going to those strongholds to collect information in person.

Although most of the intelligence collected at various strongholds is useless, many times, the most critical information is hidden in trivial matters.

This is Seth's experience in intelligence work for many years.

"Then I'll wait a few days. You bring all the information over first. I want to take a look first."

"Yes, Lord Seth."
