In the Lord's Mansion in White Tree City, Lant looked at Dandelian with great interest. He originally thought that Dandelian himself was a bloodline of the White Tree family, so he was eager to try things in White Tree City. However, this girl obviously had other recommendations.
So Lant asked: "Oh? Do we still have such nobles in the northwest?"
"Yes, and you know this nobleman," Dandelion nodded, "Baron Jeor Mormont, also known as Baron Wild Bear Ling."
The image of a stupid man appeared in Lant's mind. This baron lost his eldest son when the Gray Goose tribe attacked last year. Afterwards, Huck led Geo to find Lant, hoping that Lant would give him some supplies. .
Lant changed his mind and used support policies such as subsidized loans and joint business to give him the equipment, half selling and half giving away.
Since Wild Bear Leader boarded the Galloping Horse family's caravan last year, it has reaped profits several times higher than in previous years.
With enough potions, Baron Jeor's second son, third son and daughter inspired their bloodlines one after another. The youngest daughter, Remeth Mormont, also entered Galloping Horse Academy and became a student of Guleia.
"You mean, Baron Jeor Mormont of Wild Bear Ling?" Lant confirmed.
"Yes, there are no qualified knights above the junior level in the direct bloodline of the Denverson family. Most of his brothers and sisters were implicated in this incident, and the others are not in the Northwest Territory.
Baron Geo's first wife was Denverson's biological sister, and his father was also related to the White Tree family. According to the Noble Succession Law, he is fully qualified to inherit the position of Viscount of White Tree City. "
"What you said makes sense," Lant nodded, feeling a little hesitant, but he couldn't deny that Baron Yexiong Ling, who implemented the knight's ways, was indeed a good candidate. "I will report this matter to the Dragon Tooth City Council. Yes, as for whether the kingdom approves it, it depends on the discussion among the nobles."
Dandelion nodded and prepared to leave. She knew that Jieao's Viscount should not have run away. Although Lant said that he would leave it to the nobles for discussion, in the current royal capital, Blue Dragon, White Xiao, and Lan Yuan , the red dragon and the maned wolf will not refuse Rand. The flying dragon and the blue lion want to refuse, but they no longer have a say in the matter of White Tree City. The elk is doing business, so Rant can be said to have absolute control over the issue of the Viscount's life. right to speak.
Sure enough, on the night of the 14th, Prime Minister Richelieu in the royal capital asked Lant to hold an emergency meeting. King Toussaint Bai Xiao personally listened to Lant's report and agreed on the spot that Geo would succeed the Viscount of White Tree City.
So on the early morning of the 15th, Baron Jeor Mormont was brought to White Tree City by the Dragon Knight. As soon as he got off the dragon, he was given the badge of viscount by Count Maned Wolf, and then Lant handed over the public funds of White Tree City to him. and control of the Lord's Mansion.
"Marquis Lant, Earl Kempins, what's going on?" Baron Geo was very flustered at the moment and didn't understand what was going on at all.
Kebbins said first: "Just this morning, the Kingdom Council has decided that you will inherit the title of Viscount White Tree. You don't have to refuse. Both Lant and I think you are the most suitable candidate."
Behind Kempins, Rant said nothing, but silently nodded in agreement.
After recently recovering from his illness, Earl Caspian Maned Wolf tried to regain his authority as the Earl of the Northwest Territory. Although he did not dare to directly test Lant, in front of other viscounts and barons, he still showed off his dignity and made a complete statement. It's like he has the final say in Northwest.
Although the count made some small moves, the scope of the test was limited to the northwest territory. When he left the Cornico Valley, he put his tail between his legs, and Lant didn't care about it.
Geo looked at the count, then at Lant, and nodded hesitantly.
"The Baron doesn't have to worry about the defense of White Tree City. The Count will let the Maned Wolf Knights stay for a period of time. I will also support a team of knights here. The two knights, Peter Maned Wolf and Dandelion, will serve as my representatives here. "
Lant waved, and the two of them came forward to get familiar with Geo. He could finally return to the Galloping Horse Plains.
…
Late at night on the 15th, on a glacial lake in the Frostwolf Forest to the east of the Galloping Horse Plains, the cracks on the ice formed a complex formation. Water mist and moonlight covered everything in a hazy coat. Moving towards the center of the lake, the mist The thicker it gets, and in the middle of the lake, there is a 10-meter-square piece of ice. Inside this piece of ice is Tuotapala who has entered a breakthrough state.
Dozens of frost wolves gathered around the lake shore, gazing devoutly into the center of the lake.
On a stone platform, the wolf priest Panita faced the golden moon and whispered the hymn of the God of Life. Behind her were the grandsons Voldy Wolfpaw and Wolfie Wolfpaw.
Behind them, Lant was riding on the fire, watching everything happening in the lake from the perspective of the magic network.
Ever since Totapala formed a three-headed dragon with Guleya and Agni in White Tree City yesterday, her understanding of magic seemed to have broken through immediately. She even hurried back to White Tree after the battle without even having time to show off to Lant. Wolf City went to the Frostwolf Forest alone again and sealed himself with ice.
It seemed to Lant now that there was huge magic power pouring into her from above and under her feet, and the magic patterns in the ice she was in were changing rapidly, and the temperature around her body was also decreasing.
"I think her breakthrough time will not be too short," Liehuo stared at the lake and said with some jealousy, "Lant, do you think she will become an ice wolf? In the future, she will be covered with ice particles and we will be killed. The room has also become extremely cold?"
Rant failed to pay attention to the emotions expressed by Agni and just explained: "It's hard to say. I asked Panita and she said that frost wolves, wind wolves and ice wolves may transform into each other when they break through. Generally speaking, It depends on the properties of the magic patterns on the body, but in most cases it evolves like wind wolf-frost wolf-ice wolf."
"Then if she gets cold, won't she have to hug me or the tiger?" Liehuo complained, "Also, you should go see the magic pattern tiger when you have time. Your pet cat seems to be sick..."
Before Li Huo had time to say anything, a cracking sound came from the lake. The fog gradually dispersed, revealing the figure of a big white wolf in the moonlight.
"Panita, Lant, I've made a breakthrough!" Tottapala ran to the shore excitedly and hugged the wolf priest, acting coquettishly regardless of the adoring gazes of the entire wolf pack.
After the breakthrough, Tuotapala had no ice particles on her body, and her hands did not even feel cold to the touch. However, her fur became extremely shiny, showing a dreamy silver color under the moonlight, which was quite mysterious.
"Are you a frost wolf or an ice wolf?" Liehuo couldn't help but ask when he saw his roommate.
"Hmph~ As the beloved of Lucoa, the White Wolf God and Tenia, how can I become an ordinary ice wolf!" Totapala shook her body proudly, and her silver hair changed its texture. The surrounding temperature dropped rapidly, and a layer of frost formed between the wolf's hair. As she shook again, the magic pattern changed again, and the wind blew away the ice shards.
