Chapter 533： struggle

Winter City.

In the early spring, the ice and snow melted and the temperature warmed up.

Both sides of the main road outside the east gate of Winter City were crowded with brightly dressed people.

When the blood cavalry's flag slowly appeared from the horizon, bursts of enthusiastic cheers broke out from the crowd.

The story about the guardian of the north, Earl Anglia, leading the blood cavalry across the east, has already spread its wings to every town in the north.

The bards relied on their hearsay words and their own rich imagination to compose Colin's journey to the east into a heroic epic, and all the people in the north were excited and fascinated.

When the St. Hild family and the St. Theon family were fighting, the St. Pros family took the opportunity to send troops and stole the fruits of victory that should have belonged to the North. This hatred made the people of the North cherish for hundreds of years.

Now, Earl Anglia led his army to break through the city of Bailu, and he also personally beheaded the Duke of Saint-Pros, which can be regarded as revenge of the year.

It is a pity that Emperor Reinhardt's war order came at an untimely time. Otherwise, the Northern Territory might be able to regain its own territory north of the Althus Mountains.

But fortunately, Nushui River is no longer a barrier to the east.

The people in the north believed that after repelling the orc empire, the St. Hild family would definitely "discuss" the territorial dispute with the St. Pross family.

In the eyes of everyone's expectation, the blood cavalry slowly approached the city gate.

Colin wore a gorgeous white armor and rode a black horse with a muscular body and a pure black coat.

When he got close to a position about 100 meters away from the crowd who came to meet him, Colin got off his horse and changed to walking.

As soon as he looked up, Colin clearly saw the familiar figure.

Vera wore a green duchy dress, her silky blonde hair wrapped in the style of a lady's bun, but her exquisite facial features brought a touch of majesty, and she seemed to have the power of the lord of a realm.

It's just that when she saw Colin, the expression on her face suddenly melted like ice and snow, and spring flowers bloomed.

Amidst the enthusiastic cheers, Colin came to Vera, knelt on one knee, performed a standard chivalry, and said loudly:

"The most expensive Duke of St. Hild, I dedicate all my glory to you!"

Vera gracefully stretched out her right hand, let Colin kiss the back of her hand, and said with a smile:

"You are my greatest glory, my knight!"

Colin got up, looked at Vera's pure and pure eyes, and showed a warm smile. At the same time, he clasped his wife's arm in his arm and strode towards the direction of Winter City.

The greeted crowd suddenly boiled, and countless colorful petals were thrown on the sky above the pair of Bi people, and then slowly fell, forming a flower path leading to the city gate.

Colin did not squint, with a right smile on the corner of his mouth, bathed in the rain of flowers on his body, and strode forward in constant cheers.

In this way, all the way to the church in the center of Winterfell, Colin saw the cardinal Turnans in a red priest's robe at a glance.

"Earl Anglia, your reputation has long been spread to the holy mountain, and the pope's crown personally praised you, saying that you have the hope of becoming a saint."

"The Pope has been crowned!" Colin looked at the kind-faced old priest, but in his heart he was forcibly resisting the urge to screw his head off on the spot.

Archbishop Adjani also wore a pure white priest's robe, and stood behind Turnans with a standardized smile on her face. She saluted Colin and greeted Colin, nothing unusual.

But when the bishop emeritus greeted Colin, he didn't dare to face Colin's eyes.

Speaking of, the bishop emeritus and Colin are old acquaintances. Before becoming the bishop of Wintertime, he was the bishop of Ice Rock City. When Colin asked the slave children to literacy, the bishop emeritus realized it was wrong. , And once persuaded him euphemistically.

According to Ajani’s whistleblower this time, the retired bishop also frantically attacked Colin’s welfare system in front of the cardinal, thinking that this would seriously damage the interests of the church.

It's an old guy with a sharp eye! Valley

Colin took a deep look at the bishop emeritus, and then led Vera into the prayer hall.

Cardinal Turnans personally presided over the prayer ceremony for Colin and Vera.

During the whole process, Colin always paid attention to the state of his wife beside him, but he still didn't notice anything unusual.

The bright sunshine filled the prayer hall through the glazed dome, and the holy and peaceful atmosphere made Colin a little drowsy.

After the ceremony, Colin donated three thousand gold coins to the church to express his piety.

After that, Colin didn't stay too much, and returned to Roar Castle with Vera.

The Marquis of Garcia led a group of members of the Saint Hild family to greet at the gate of the castle.

I haven't seen it for a long time, the physical condition of Marquis Garcia seems to be worse than last time. There is a feeling of heroic twilight, which makes Colin feel a little painful in his heart.

It's just that his eyes were still sharp, and he stared at Colin for a long time before he pulled out a smile and said:

"Good job!"

This compliment made Colin couldn't help but straighten his chest, like a student praised by the teacher.

After greeting everyone who came to greet him for a while, UU read www.uukanshu. Com Colin returned to his room under the leadership of Vera.

The maid had prepared the bath water, but she was driven away by Vera when she was about to serve Colin and take off her armor.

"Are you going to change my clothes yourself?" Colin stared into Vera's eyes, as if trying to find something out of it.

Vera smiled sweetly and said, "Yes, this is what I should do as a wife."

Of course Colin would not refuse, relaxing his body, closing his eyes slightly, as if he was enjoying his wife's tenderness.

The room was filled with a warm atmosphere, warm and drowsy.

Taking off his armor, Colin could already feel Vera's soft little hands walking around him, and the warm touch made him intoxicated.

However, a sharp cold touch disturbed Colin's enjoyment.

As if aware of something, Colin sighed, opened his eyes, and saw a dagger gleaming with cold light, reaching his throat.

And Vera, who was holding this dagger, was trembling all over, and seemed to be struggling fiercely whether to stab it.

In her originally green eyes, there was a flickering golden light.

The fine cold sweat oozes out on her forehead, as if she is fighting fiercely with something.

Colin looked at his wife in front of him with complicated eyes, and said solemnly:

"Vera, do you still recognize me?"

There was silence.

The dagger was shaking violently, but it still didn't pierce.

Colin felt heartache for a while, but he said solemnly:

"Vera, don't give in! No one, even the Lord of Radiance, can be your master!"

I don't know if she heard Colin's call, Vera's body shaking became more and more violent.

But in the next second, red blood flowed out of her facial features.
