Count Nichol suddenly turned around and saw that the sea of fire in White Dew City had miraculously extinguished.
The fire had come in a strange manner and left in an even stranger manner.
Count Nichol was even more certain that this was not an ordinary fire!
The rumors about Fallen Eagle City surfaced in his mind once again. Count Nichol looked at Roger with bright eyes and asked in a deep voice,
"Knight Roger, could it be that someone is trying to sacrifice White Dew City to release the forbidden spell, [Eye of Judgment]?"
"That's right." Roger nodded.
"Is it Mister Shan?"
"Who else could it be?" Roger looked at the hatred in Count Nichol's eyes and added, "However, Mister Shan alone would not be able to cause such a huge fire in White Dew City."
Count Nichol's heart sank. His previous conjecture surfaced once again.
Although he did not want to believe it, he still asked in a trembling voice, "Is it Earl Of Avon who is helping him?"
"What do you think?" Roger asked in return. He did not give Count Nichol any time to think and asked the same question again.
"Count Nichol, now that the chaos in White Dew City has just settled down, everyone is in a state of panic. We need a noble of virtue and prestige to stabilize the situation. I wonder if you are willing to take on this heavy responsibility?"
Hearing these words again, Count Nichol certainly did not think that Knight Roger was crazy like before.
He finally believed that Count Angele was still alive.
Moreover, the extinguishing of the fire was most likely his doing.
Perhaps he had seen through the plans of the Earl Of Avon and Mister Shan from the very beginning. Thus, he formulated a counterplan and faked his death to turn the tables.
Thinking of this, Count Nichol could not help but feel a chill in his heart. There had never been anyone who could give him as much pressure as Colin Angele.
He was a military genius with unparalleled wisdom.
Count Nichol suddenly felt that compared to this Count of the Northern Frontier, the young masters of the House of Saint Prospero were as stupid as pigs.
From now on, the entire eastern region would be shrouded in the shadow of this Count of the Northern Frontier.
But at the same time, Count Nichol realized the hidden meaning behind Knight Roger's invitation.
For a moment, his heart was pounding, and some kind of ambition hidden in the depths of his heart that he did not dare to speak of suddenly surged.
But the old and solemn Count Nicol still took a deep breath to calm the agitation in his heart.
"Shouldn't you find a Saint Prospero to take on this responsibility?"
The corner of Roger's mouth twitched as he sneered.
"Is there anyone else in the House of Saint Prospero who can take on this responsibility? Can the citizens of White Dew City continue to trust them? "
Count Nicol's heart, which had just calmed down, was once again agitated.
Although he knew that it was impossible for him to become the Duke of the Eastern Region, it was not difficult for him to become the Duke of the Eastern Region with the help of Count Angele.
This would definitely bring about an earth-shattering change to the status and strength of the Nichol family!
Count Nicol licked his cracked lips and asked in a hopeful and hesitant tone, "What do you mean?
"Count Angele, what's your plan?"
Knight Roger smiled faintly and put on a matter-of-fact expression.
"Of course, Count Nichol only wants White Dew City to regain its stability as soon as possible. Don't forget, His Majesty's war order has already been sent. The Eastern Region must be ready to send troops as soon as possible."
Count Nichol knew that Knight Roger did not fully trust him yet. He also knew that once he accepted the invitation, he would be seen as someone who had sided with the Angele family. If the situation in the Eastern Region changed in the future, he would be very likely to be punished and punished.
Thinking of this, Count Nichol's expression changed rapidly as he struggled in his heart.
However, Knight Roger was already getting impatient. Seeing this, he urged.
He urged, "Count Nichol, time is of the essence. If you are not willing, then I'm afraid Count Angele will have to find someone else."
"I'm willing!"
Count Nichol suddenly raised his head and growled firmly.
"Very good!" Knight Roger revealed a satisfied smile, then waved his hand and ordered,
"Blood Cavalry, enter the city!"
…
White Dew Castle.
In the underground ice cellar, Princess Judy was curled up in Prince Harrison's arms. She did not know whether it was because of fear or the cold, but her petite body could not stop trembling.
In fact, this fire did not affect White Dew Castle. After all, no matter how crazy the Earl Of Avon was, it was impossible for him to burn down his own castle.
However, although there was no fire, it was still in a sea of fire. The scorching air made the people in the castle feel like their lungs were being poured with boiling water every time they took a breath.
The scorching temperature also made White Dew Castle feel like it was on top of a steamer. It was unbearably hot.
The important people in the castle had been moved to the basement.
As for Prince Harrison and Princess Judy, they were arranged to stay in the largest ice cellar.
The temperature here was naturally not too affected, and the entrances were covered with wet curtains, so the air was still fresh.
However, this still could not alleviate the anxiety and fear of the people in the ice cellar.
"Brother, are we going to die?"
There were still traces of tears on Princess Judy's face. It seemed like she had just cried.
"Don't worry, we definitely won't."
Prince Harrison hugged his sister tightly and comforted her with a firm tone.
However, he was not sure himself.
Princess Judy didn't know if she had heard the insincerity in her brother's words. After a long silence, she suddenly asked:
After a moment of silence, she suddenly asked, "Brother, if we don't escape this disaster, what would be your biggest regret?"
Prince Harrison was taken aback by these words.
He wanted to comfort his sister that they would definitely be able to escape this disaster, but the words did not come out of his mouth.
At the same time, he could not help but think — what would he regret?
Not being able to see his father and mother again?
Not being able to avenge his teacher?
Or had he missed out on the supreme position of the Radiance Empire?
…
After thinking for a while, Prince Harrison realized that the final image in his mind was actually the first time he saw Cathy Savoy.
It was a hot summer afternoon. Cathy, who was wearing a blue maid's dress, was timidly following behind Colin. When she saw Prince Harrison's gaze, she immediately returned a respectful and shy smile.
It was this smile that struck the heart of Prince Harrison, who had just experienced his first awakening of love.
Thinking that he would not be able to see Cathy Savoy again before he died, Prince Harrison felt extremely regretful.
However, he immediately rejoiced that Cathy did not come to White Dew City with him.
Looking at her silent brother, Princess Judy could not help but tug at his collar.
"Brother, why aren't you saying anything?"
A hint of panic flashed across Prince Harrison's eyes. Just as he was thinking about how to answer his sister's previous question, he suddenly heard a commotion outside.
Soon after, Knight Ivan ran in excitedly and shouted, "My Lord!
"Your Highnesses, the fire has been extinguished! The fire has been extinguished! "
"Really?" Prince Harrison stood up with Princess Judy in his arms.
"Of course it's true! You can come out and see for yourself. "
"I'll go take a look!" Princess Judy immediately broke free from her brother's arms and scurried out like a little rabbit.
Prince Harrison hurriedly followed as well.
After exiting the ice cellar, they indeed discovered that the fire in the city had miraculously been extinguished.
Although the air was still filled with smoke, they could clearly feel that the temperature was rapidly dropping.
"Awesome! We're saved! We're saved! "
Princess Judy jumped and cheered excitedly.
The surrounding nobles and guards were also cheering and rejoicing. Many of them even knelt on the ground devoutly, praising the God of Light.
Prince Harrison was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes.
In his blurred vision, Prince Harrison seemed to see a familiar figure —
Teacher's figure!
Just as Prince Harrison thought his eyes were playing tricks on him, he heard his sister exclaim in surprise, "That's right.
"Teacher! Teacher, you're still alive! "
As she said that, the little girl ran over and threw herself into Colin's arms.
The first glimmer of dawn shone on White Dew Castle, bringing this long night to a close.
