40. Shocked

Ryan Seventh Avenue was originally known as the Kingdom's Seventh Avenue, but after the Ryan Kingdom surrendered to the Millennium Covenant Empire and was downgraded to a principality, this street was naturally about to be renamed. Although the name was later changed to Lane Seventh Avenue by the envoys of the Millennium Covenant Empire with a stroke of a pen - it is said that this was a great price for the Lane royal family, otherwise they would not even be able to keep the word "big" - but in the eyes of many Lane people who settled in the royal capital, this street is still called the Seventh Avenue of the Kingdom.

In this regard, the people of the Millennium Covenant Empire also turned a blind eye.

However, today, when the Duchy of Lane decided to upgrade to a kingdom, the street has finally reverted to its original name.

Kingdom Seventh Avenue.

The road is one of the main roads, so it is spacious enough to accommodate four large carriages side by side. This street is also only one street away from the Royal Palace, so it is directly subsumed into the patrol area of the Royal Palace in the defense area of the royal capital.

From time to time, the people who lived in the mansions on either side of the street, and even the residents who walked along the street, could see the well-dressed elite soldiers holding their heads high. As a result, this street is naturally the most expensive street in King Ryan's capital - both in terms of security and vanity, it can satisfy those with strong desires.

However, I don't know when the mansions on this street gradually became larger and larger, and even later, it was impossible to get a mansion here without a certain level and status.

Let's see that the people who can live on this street are either powerful marquises, real power marquises, or powerful counts and the like. You can imagine it.

The farther east you are, the more noble the owner of the mansion becomes.

And a mansion on the easternmost side of the street, which has been uninhabited for at least a decade, also welcomed a new owner yesterday.

Duke of the Void from the Void Realm. Sean. Connelly.

At this point, those nobles who once doubted whether they had heard the rumors wrong finally had to pinch their noses and admit that this guy, who was just a watchdog of Asuna before, had finally ascended to the sky and become a big man standing at the pinnacle of the entire Ryan's power - even if the duke did not hold a position in any department of Ryan, but everyone knew that the recognized prefix of the duke in the aristocratic circle would be "strength".

And it will only be strength.

Duke of strength.

Such a name alone is enough for any nobles who still want to try to find Sean trouble.

At least. An old nobleman like Duo Vigo, who has a strong background and superior strength, also had to swallow his anger this time - of course, in the royal capital. Or is it really impossible to continue to trouble Sean, that is, no one can know. Perhaps, only those Sene nobles who are on the same side as Dovigo will know what the Dovigo family will do next.

And before. The Sene nobles must win over a nobleman who also holds the title of duke.

Just the four dukes like Boulder and Hopson and the two Evans family. It was obviously impossible, so almost on this day, the entire Seventh Avenue became lively, and the nobles who had almost no contact and communication with each other held many banquets as if they had a heart, and invited nobles from all circles. Nominally, it was to celebrate the national celebration in advance, and to allow the capitulation nobles of Dabiang to better integrate into the aristocratic circle of Lane, but in fact, it was the Sene nobles who hit Roja with their ideas. Karci and Davin. Söder. Sha Bo, the two big men who are destined to be able to get the title of duke.

Originally. With such a lively atmosphere, even if someone came to Sean at this time, it would probably not be very noticeable.

It's just the easternmost mansion on Seventh Avenue that has not been inhabited for more than ten years, and only a few servants have been left to clean it. It was once controlled by a certain prince of the royal family, so the reputation of this mansion is too big, and with Sean's current occupancy, it is impossible for people not to pay attention to it. So when four carriages entered through the main entrance of the mansion and stopped at the main gate of the building, it instantly caught the attention of all the nobles on Seventh Avenue.

And when they recognized the identities of the people who got out of the carriage, the nobles with relatively low titles all let out a cold breath.

The man who got out of the first carriage was Asuna. G. Evans.

This woman, who was once called a demon in Dabiang, even if the kingdom of Dabiang has been completely destroyed now, but in the eyes of those surviving nobles, Asuna's deterrent power has only increased. Especially in the official list of titles canonized by the royal family of Ryan this morning, this woman officially became the Duke of Ryan Kingdom - Duke Garrod, named after the Garrod Fortress, the never-ending gateway of the Kingdom of Dabiang.

This is basically announcing that the area within the Garrod Fortress, which is close to the four standard dukedoms, will all be named Garrod Territory.

For many nobles who still have deep feelings for the kingdom of Dabiang, Asuna's presence is undoubtedly a natural hate-attracter.

There is no doubt that Asuna will have to face those die-hard people who want to restore Dabiang in the rest of her life. But these, that's not something that the Ryan royal family needs to consider, and of course, it's not something that Asuna needs to think about, maybe as a woman, Asuna is a little delicate and sensitive by nature, but in the same way, Asuna has never been soft on the treatment of enemies.

After the battle with Dabiang, there were 30,000 reactionaries who died under Asuna's butcher's knife. It is even said that a small city of tens of thousands of people near the old royal capital of Dabiang was massacred by Asuna overnight, and the reason is that more than seventy percent of the people in this small city are die-hard members of Dabiang's royalist faction, and it is unrealistic to let the people in this small city identify them, so Asuna directly ordered the massacre.

Despite the cruelty. However, this is the best medicine for the Garrod Collar who is in urgent need of stability at present.

So, the moment Asuna appeared from the carriage. People who are a little stronger or very sensitive to breath, even if they are far away, can feel a fierce aura rising up from the sky around her.

Compared to Sean, Asuna's murderous aura is only heavy.

The person who got off the second carriage was also between the two in comparison to Asuna in the first carriage.

Former Duke of Dabion Tequila, now Duke of Ryan Tequila, Hatch. Boulder.

Although in relation to the agave collar of the Dabiang period. Today's tequila has shrunk greatly, and the entire Boulder family has won the title of hereditary duke at this morning's canonization ceremony, except for Hatch. Only one other person received the title of hereditary marquis, and the other field marquis and earls who originally had a place in the tequila domain during the Dabiang period have now become lifelong marquis and earls, and their fiefdoms have all been abolished.

But for this result. Both the old Duke Hatch. Or other members of the Boulder family, none of them raised any objections. In fact, the members of the Boulder family are quite satisfied with this result, after all, it is indeed not easy for the defeated country to retain this kind of treatment, and in some ways, the Boulder family should be considered more powerful than before.

After all, the shrinking of the territory means that the territory that needs to be governed and defended in the future will not be too large. As a result, the heavy damage caused in this war will have much less to repair.

The old man, who already had mottled gray hair, may have looked a little old, but his awe-inspiring aura was no less than that of Asuna. It's just after the baptism of the years. It has long been lost the arrogance and bloodshed of the territory of the past, but among the old nobles of Dabiang, this old man still has a deep prestige.

Old Duke Hatch and Asuna had both gotten out of the car, and after glancing at each other, there was an unknown smile in their eyes.

At this time, the door of the third carriage had also been opened, and those who were constantly watching finally focused their attention on the third carriage.

Then this time, the sound of gasping for cold air was slightly heavier.

Because the man who got out of the third carriage was also a duke!

Duke of Mandala, Cous. Hopson.

The duke, who wore a black mandala flower as his family crest, was the commander-in-chief of the border army of the former Kingdom of Dabiang who was responsible for resisting the fascist kingdom, although he had always lost more than he won in the local conflicts with the fascist kingdom, but if he studied carefully, he would find that the few victories actually caused the French kingdom to suffer heavy losses. Moreover, the Hopson Guard under his command is an elite force that is very good at fighting mountain warfare, defensive warfare, and jungle warfare.

People who don't know why may despise this middle-aged man, but only the nobles of the original Dabiang southeast faction will know that this infamous duke may not even rank in the top ten in terms of offensive ability among the many generals of Dabiang, but in terms of defensive warfare, if he admits second, then no one will dare to admit first, if not, when the war between Dabiang and Ryan broke out, the king of Dabiang would not let Kos alone defend the entire Dabiang-Fascist defense.

The three dukes appeared together, and if you count the one who is in this mansion at the moment, it is the meeting of the four dukes!

You must know that there are only seven dukes in the entire Ryan now, but at this moment, there are already four of them gathered in this mansion, what shocking news!

But what stunned everyone even more was the one who got off the fourth carriage.

It was a thin old man, who looked a little wobbly even when he walked, as if the old man would be swept away by a gust of wind.

However, in the entire royal capital, even the royal family of Lane did not dare to despise this old man.

Because he has a very prominent status.

Special Envoy of the Pan-Continental Chamber of Commerce Alliance to Lane. (To be continued......)

PS: I've been running to the hospital for the last few days, so the update may be a bit problematic, and it should be back to normal next week, I'm really sorry.
