The cold and snow-white world drives away the bleak autumn, and the cloudy weather comes to the silver pine provinces. When you look at it, you can see that the high places are covered with silver, and the low places are piled with white catkins.

Even such a cold temperature can not dissipate the enthusiasm of businessmen. The frozen north is full of walking trade caravans, and the busy wheels roll up snowflakes.

Irvindale.

After the plague that spread to Yinsong province ended, the town was timely expanded, and then completely replaced edalas as a new economic center and a rising pearl in the north.

The once four foot high wall was repaired and reinforced with blue boulders. High sentry towers were built at regular intervals. Behind the solid wall piers were Knox soldiers in charge of guarding.

The weather beaten iron and wood door was replaced by a steel gate forged by a demacia armourmaker. It stood at the gate, flanked by guarded Knox expeditionary cavalry.

Heavy armor engraved with double-edged marks is worn around the body, the strength of the knight's attendants is undoubtedly revealed, and the leading ten captain shows the unique breath of life energy of the extraordinary knight.

In front of the bustling city gate, traders and mercenaries in and out kept order and lined up a long queue in the ice and snow.

"Damn it, it's really cold," muttered the mercenary in thick lock armour at the back of the line, looking at irvindale. "Good guy, the reinforcement will be completed in less than half a year."

Hearing the sound, the strong mercenary on his side smiled and replied, "now who doesn't know the strength of Valoran's collar, not only opens up the trade channel with the eilanfaro Empire, but also destroys the plague not long ago."

It seems to think of something. The strong mercenary approached the lock armour mercenary and whispered, "it's rumored that there is a legendary crown under the Valoran collar, and there is more than one!"

The lock armour mercenary looked mockingly at his man and disdained to say, "how long did it spread before you knew? If it weren't for the legendary crown, the plague could be eliminated so quickly?"

"News came from the caravan of the eilanfaro empire that there had been a battle at the sad gate, which might be caused by solving the source of the plague."

"Really?" the strong mercenary looked surprised.

"Who knows, the rumor is so rumored. As for the truth, you have to ask the Baron modrian." the lock mercenary pointed to the sky and joked.

After that, he patted the man on the shoulder: "but you boy, don't run around in other kingdoms in recent years. I think the development of Valoran collar is getting better and better. I suggest you stay and live a stable life. There's enough money here."

"Gollum... Gollum!" the lock armour mercenary took out the wine pot from his arms and poured a mouthful of liquor: "did you notice that he took several caravan hiring missions?" he pointed to the Knox soldiers at the city gate and the city wall. "Each of those soldiers has the strength of a knight's attendant."

"I don't think it will take long for the wandering mercenaries in the territory to survive, unless they receive big lists from the surrounding kingdoms, but those big lists are covered by the mercenary regiment, and you and I can't get them at all."

The strong mercenaries were slightly silent. Looking back at the lined up trading caravans, some caravans did not hire them anymore. These wandering mercenaries ran back and forth with their own hands.

This is not only the change caused by the change of the environment, but also the inevitable result.

In the past few years, the bitter and cold north of stoke kingdom was quite chaotic. Wandering bandits could be seen everywhere. At that time, the mercenaries made a lot of silver and gold shields, but they also killed a lot of people.

Who can guarantee that you won't lose your life in a mission?

"Maybe this will be a good change." the strong mercenary bowed his head. Since the Valoran collar was established by relying on the renwal mountains, the environment in the North has indeed improved too much, and the blood events have decreased sharply.

Especially after the destruction of the Jeffrey family, many mercenaries had left in awe of the prestige of the Valoran collar at that time.

"But is a stable day really suitable for us?"

Since his father's generation, he has embarked on the path of mercenary soldiers, which is caused by his unwilling to be ordinary ideals. There is no hope in the life of those aristocrats.

"Still hesitating?" the lock mercenary handed over the wine pot, smiled and said, "do you know why there is such a long line today?"

"Ha ha!" he laughed heartily when he saw the man's puzzled expression.

"A prison has been built near the renwal mountains in irvindale. It is magnificent and strict. No one is allowed to get close around. Recently, the news that there are performances in the prison has spread in the city."

"What's the name of Delaware alliance? It should be this name.... forget it, don't care. Regardless of identity, everyone can buy a ticket to enter, and the ticket price is not expensive."

"Performance? Prison?" the strong mercenary took the wine pot and wondered. At this time, he also saw that there were many people with other identities in the long dragon team, most of whom came from the surrounding towns, and some might be visitors from outside the territory.

"Who knows, I've heard that it's about prisoners on death row. If they survive, they will be given a chance to live." the lock armour mercenary licked his lips. When he bought the ticket, he saw many mercenaries and businessmen stationed in irwendell City, as well as local residents, who were also very curious about it.

"But such propaganda seems very interesting." with the words, his face looks a little ferocious. "Most importantly, it is said that there will be death row prisoners of extraordinary knights, even higher..."

Seeing the abnormal state of his companion, the strong mercenary quickly handed over the wine pot he had not yet drunk and comforted the other party. A trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. The parents of the lock armour mercenary were slaughtered by those extraordinary knights.

It is a normal phenomenon that at any time, there is relative class rule, especially in places without order and law. The dark human nature sometimes makes people vomit.

"It's impossible. How can those old Knights become prisoners of death?" the strong mercenaries immediately asked.

"Nothing is impossible, this is Valoran collar!" the lock armour mercenary gasped slightly and hoarse. "Aren't the so-called Knights very interested? They colluded with outsiders and betrayed Baron modrian."

"But is there an aristocratic law? Knights who get knighthood can pay their own ransom and regain their freedom."

"Ha... That's why I let you stay. Lord Valoran and Baron modrian are ready to implement the new law and refuse the demands of the 'old men'." the lock armour mercenary looked at the man with a dignified look. "Tough enough."

"It is said that there are some temple people among the old knights who are imprisoned and ready to appear in the performance..... Woo woo woo." he pushed aside the hands of the strong mercenaries, stared and said, "what are you doing?"

"You don't want to die?" the strong mercenary moved his eyes and motioned to the crowd dressed neatly and wearing the golden badge of the temple not far away.

"What's the matter, do those guys dare to get me in irvindale?" the mercenary frowned lightly, as if he didn't care, but his tone had slowed down slightly. "Master gulagas's wine barrel is very powerful. A few days ago, he directly killed some foreign noble knights who committed murders in the street."

"Really?"

"Can it be false?"

"Kane, stop talking nonsense. We'll be in line right away. Hurry up and get into town."

"OK, master Kenny." hearing the voice from the rear, the lock armour mercenary quickly agreed. Then he took the man to the back and said as he walked, "wait for the city. I'll take you to buy tickets and see the show tomorrow."

"Hey, I've never seen the death performance of those old Knights!"
