The capital of the Roman Principality, Rohan.
As the second largest city in the northern part of the Crescent Peninsula after Northport, this capital of the ancient principality is as prosperous as the capital of Castres.
In fact, before Northland developed, it was once the largest trading center in the Xingyue Strait, dominating the trade of the entire strait.
Only with the passage of time, the Northland continued to develop, and the Eastern Union Black Land Mercenary Alliance and the Northern Grand Duchy also gradually emerged, the trade routes of the Star-Moon Strait gradually shifted northward, and finally Roang's trade center status was Northport replaced.
But even so, Roang today is still one of the largest port cities on the Crescent Peninsula, with a population of more than half a million.
When Charlotte stepped onto the port pier, her attention was immediately attracted by the tall sculptures on the pier.
It was a sculpture of a half-elf warrior.
His face was blurry, and he stood on the dock holding a majestic long sword, looking straight into the distance.
"Your Excellency Castel, this is the hero in the history of the Romans, the half-elf Romanus who led the Romans to successfully settle in the Crescent Peninsula. He is also the ancestor of the Roman royal family. The long sword in his hand is the artifact of Romans. sword."
Noticing Charlotte's gaze, Yurst, who was walking with her, introduced.
Charlotte nodded slightly.
She saw that in front of the sculpture were piles of various wreaths presented by the people, which showed the great influence of this half-elf hero in the Roman Principality.
And just as she was looking at the port city curiously, well-armed guards soon arrived in front of the group of people.
The leading knight looked at the badge on Yurst's chest, then looked at Charlotte's clothes and the sailboat with the Castel flag docked at the deep-water dock not far away, and quickly recognized it. Revealing their identities, he saluted respectfully:
"Your Majesty Count Castres, Your Majesty Count Jurst, welcome to Rohan."
Although Yurst is a blood descendant who lives at home, he still has basic aristocratic communication skills.
He nodded slightly and said:
"Take us to the Romanus Hotel. His Excellency, Count Castells, came to Rohan this time and was invited to attend the viewing ceremony of the Roman Ceremony."
The knight saluted again and quickly arranged for soldiers to escort him. However, in Charlotte's view, escort was also a kind of surveillance.
After all, to the Fallen Star Kingdom, the lords of the Crescent Kingdom are also considered lords of the enemy country in a sense.
In the city of Roang, there were lights and colorful lights everywhere, and it was very lively.
The recognition ceremony of the Roman Ancestor Sword cannot be held at any time. In fact, it can only be held at the annual Roman Festival, and this year's festival is tomorrow.
Charlotte looked around at the streets curiously, pretending to be sightseeing.
However, I’m afraid we won’t be able to see these in Nice for a short time.
This guy actually got seasick. He vomited countless times after being on the boat for a whole day. It will probably take a while before he gets over it.
Under the leadership of the city guard, Charlotte and her party quickly settled in a high-end hotel in Rohan that was specially designed to receive nobles. This hotel is adjacent to the city's Romanus Square and is also the location where the ancestral ceremony will be held tomorrow.
Charlotte noticed that the preliminary preparations in the square were almost complete. The viewing platform had been set up and the altar had been put up. The soldiers of Fallen Star Kingdom were busy making the final arrangements for the venue.
"Your Excellency Castel, the ancestor recognition ceremony will officially begin tomorrow. At that time, our people will take you to the darkroom directly below to destroy the ceremony before the ceremony begins. There is not much you need to do. You only need to intervene in the ceremony step by step. ”
Count Jurst said.
Charlotte's heart moved:
"Won't I attract attention after I leave?"
Yurst explained:
"Lord Yorok has prepared a substitute for you. During your absence, he will watch the ceremony on your behalf."
"Substitute? Won't anyone find out?"
"You can rest assured about this. Lord Yorock is a senior Duke of Blood. He is very knowledgeable in illusion magic. He can even rival the elders of the Selem clan who control spiritual inheritance. Except for Roman's Sword, no one can. See through his illusion, and Roman's Sword has never cared about such worldly disputes. It only cares about its mission of strengthening Roman's bloodline."
Yurst said.
After hearing his words, Charlotte nodded slightly.
The Ness clan has an alliance with the Castel family. At the same time, the Ness clan is obviously very afraid of the "god" behind the Castel family, so the Ness clan will not lie to her on this matter.
Not to mention, Yurst himself is considered hers in a sense.
"Also, there is a banquet held by the Roman royal family in the city tonight. It will be held at the Roman Palace. The nobles who came to watch the banquet will be invited to attend, and you may be among them."
Yurst thought for a while and then said.
Charlotte's heart moved:
"Is Edward III here too?"
Yurst shook his head:
"His Majesty the King is seriously injured and bedridden. It is no longer possible to come to Roman. However, he should appear through a magic projection at tomorrow's ancestor recognition ceremony, which can be regarded as a support for Prince Henry."
After saying that, Yurst looked at the time and said:
"Your Excellency Castel, it's getting late. There are still some matters within the clan that need to be handled during tomorrow's ceremony, so I will take my leave first."
"If you want to find me, just go to the hotel front desk and look for a waiter. This hotel is the property of the Ness clan, and all the waiters are our people."
After hearing what Yurst said, Charlotte was not surprised.
In fact, after she stepped into the hotel, she felt the scent of many blood descendants.
Although the other party had tried to hide his identity as much as possible, as a "true ancestor" recognized by the Blood Scripture, she could still identify the other party's scent.
"I see."
Charlotte nodded.
After saying that, Yurst said goodbye and left.
Charlotte looked out the window at the dense crowds in Romanus Square, thought for a moment, and then sank into consciousness again.
The Ness clan attaches great importance to tomorrow's Roman ancestor recognition ceremony.
She was curious about how many blood descendants came from the Ness clan this time.
The Blood Sacred Scripture bloomed with brilliance, and Charlotte entered the Dark Night Castle again, summoning the Crimson Star Sea.
Densely packed crimson stars lit up, clustered within a radius of five kilometers with Charlotte as the center, more stars than Charlotte had ever seen before.
Looking around, I'm afraid there are at least a thousand.
For this ancestor recognition ceremony, the Ness clan secretly dispatched a thousand blood descendants!
In Charlotte's perception, the distribution of these blood descendants is very distinctive. There are three places with the most, one is the tavern where she is, one is the Roman palace opposite the Romanus Square, and the other is the sacred place in the city of Rohan. Royal Court Church.
Obviously, as the current core sphere of influence of the Ness clan, the church branch of the Holy Royal Court here has been infiltrated into a sieve by the Ness clan.
Among all the vampire stars, there are three largest ones.
The one closest to Charlotte, in the direction of Roman Palace, gave Charlotte a somewhat familiar aura.
She quickly recognized that the legendary blood descendant she had met through the spiritual world when she was attacked in North Port should be Duke Yorock of the Ness clan.
The second star is farther away, in the direction of the church. Its aura is a bit ethereal and deep, and its light is relatively dim. It doesn't look like a normal blood descendant, but it looks a bit like Sebas.
Charlotte estimated that he must be a legend with a bloodline.
However, it was the third one that surprised Charlotte the most.
This is a star that is moving slowly in the city, seemingly wandering leisurely.
If the first star only made Charlotte feel familiar, then the aura of the third star...she couldn't understand it better.
She had only dealt with this aura more than a month ago.
That person was none other than Albrecht, the dark apostle of the Blood Demon Order who was tricked by Charlotte into signing a contract and becoming a blood servant.
"Albrecht? Why did this guy come to the Roman Principality?"
Charlotte was curious.
She was thinking about whether to spy on the other party, when suddenly something moved in her heart, and she felt the approach of a familiar aura.
Charlotte raised an eyebrow.
She pondered for a moment, ended her exploration and returned to reality.
After a while, there was a knock on the door, and Shirley's voice came over:
"Lord Charlotte, the hotel waiter said that someone is looking for you downstairs, saying he is an old acquaintance of yours."
Charlotte nodded and said:
"Bring her up, she is indeed an old acquaintance of mine."
After a while, the door was gently pushed open, and Shirley walked in with a petite figure hidden in a hooded coat.
Charlotte motioned for Shirley to close the door, looked at the petite hooded figure in front of her, and smiled:
"Eudosiya, why are you here in Rohan? What's going on with this outfit?"
After listening to Charlotte's words, the petite figure lifted her hood. It was the black dragon maid Eudocia who had taken on the task of finding the ancient palace.
