I have a shelter
Chapter 420: Thunder blasts in the Sky Eagle City (Long Chapter)
When the mighty team came to the moat under the city, the guards recognized these people by looking at the flags and costumes of the team. However, they hesitated and did not dare to open the door immediately.
Until several Sky Eagle Knights rode their horses to the wall, raised their whips and shouted loudly. The guards looked at these big men and finally shrank their heads. They no longer mentioned reporting the matter in the city first, but quickly lowered the drawbridge.
When the troops slowly entered the city, Kerry and others took the lead and led people to occupy the city wall and the city wall at the first time.
When the castle received the news that a diehard of Darris came with a group of drunken knights, they looked at the troops entering the city and stood still on their horses.
Lord Earl Darris said that no matter who came during this period, he must be informed before discussing. He couldn't understand why Kerry was so disobedient and returned to the city at this time. And it seemed that he brought a group of outsiders.
Thinking of Miss Tanya in the city, the envoy she mentioned, and the news that was now being spread in the capital. The nobleman could not help but break out in a cold sweat. He called on the knights around him to raise their flags and rush towards the team, shouting loudly, trying to intercept the team.
The old duke had just made a decision in the past two days, and the will was about to be established! If the city suddenly changed because of this group of people coming, it would be all over!
The troops entering the city looked at the noble who led the team and his old superiors behind him, and did not dare to draw their swords, let alone attack the nobles. The dawn knights who were training the guards on the city wall were holding their arms and watching coldly. It seemed that they were waiting for someone.
So, for a while, the scene was extremely chaotic.
George stood on the city wall, looking at the messy crowd below, whipped around by the officers' whips, and shook his head secretly.
These soldiers in the outside world are indeed far from being as brave as the soldiers in the shelter.
Soon, Kerry and a group of Sky Eagle Knights arrived with a group of people. They held training spears and stabbed the troublemakers off their horses without saying a word.
Amid the loud scolding of Kerry and others, the private soldiers woke up from their dreams. Under the command of the sergeants of the shelter, they viciously rushed to the nobles and knights, stuffed their mouths with rags, tied them up, and threw them into the tower of the city.
This incident made the whole army understand what they were doing here. They looked at the noble who was beaten black and blue, and the group of arrogant officers who were usually arrogant. The things that had been suppressed in their hearts for a long time were like a dam that had been unloaded. They remembered the "chicken feather command arrow" given to them by the "Arbitration Group". One by one, their eyes turned red, picked up the training swords and spears, held the flags of the Holy See and Prince Alfonso, and followed Kerry, Dirk and others to other city walls.
On the way, they had to plant these flags in the most conspicuous position.
Seeing this group of people beating up the patrols on the streets, George knew that he didn't need to worry too much about the city.
He lit up the holy object on Alfonso's back, and the fog in the whole city gradually dispersed. The soldiers looked at the sunlight that penetrated the fog in the sky, as if they were being condensed by the seven gods. They all instilled their mission into the guards who were still in the same place.
All the officers with brains were tied up, and the rest were soldiers who lacked independent thinking.
Under the guidance of the priests and the big cakes of the old soldiers, these people soon joined the team. In the excitement, they followed their new commander and began to fulfill their sacred mission.
When walking down the city wall, George said to the 'Knight of Power Owen' beside him: "Owen, I have asked some people to stay to appease the soldiers. You follow the Heavenly Kingdom Armed Forces to take over the cathedral here. Tanya's old soldiers are in the military camp in the east of the city. You can find them to help-remember, there may be some Mist Cultists in the city. After seeing the flag of the Arbitration Group today, these rats should be alarmed. Just take this opportunity to clean them up."
Speaking of this, George looked at Soraya, who was a little dazed beside him, and said: "Miss, please go and spread the glory of the Seven Gods."
Soraya tried her best to pretend to be indifferent, but when she heard that she was going to take people to the cathedral, she couldn't help showing excitement and curiosity in her eyes. It seems that she has long wanted to talk to the young priests and bishops outside.
Compared to those ignorant guys in the valley, these guys should know what is education.
They have all the procedures in place, and it is easy to take over the cathedral.
The Cathedral and the Skyhawk troops were two completely different groups. Even without the mission from the Holy See, after seeing this six-winged archangel, it was like meeting the Seven Gods—not to mention that the one who came was a real one.
For many years, this was probably the first time that the Cathedral here was so close to the glory of the Seven Gods.
They would be extremely firm in everything Soraya said.
Before Owen left, George pulled the boy and whispered something, which was a little different from what he said to Soraya: "That old guy is ambitious and greedy. I don't know what tricks he plans to use to reverse the situation. Soft tactics don't work, so let's use hard tactics today to let him see what kind of person is coming today - remember, if you see the flag of the arbitration group hanging in the castle, you will rush in with people as soon as possible to clean up the possible mist cultists in the castle for me"
After Owen heard this, he knew that if the boss couldn't reach an agreement today, they would rob!
This boy who was led astray felt that this behavior was inappropriate, but he couldn't help but get excited again in his heart.
He looked at the excited 'archangel' not far away, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart - this adult who was kept in the dark probably didn't know what glory he was going to spread today. If the seven gods came back to life and knew that their angels were being used like this, they would be so angry that they would faint.
He nodded to show that he understood, and then followed Soraya, who was standing with her hands behind her back and looking leisurely. Looking at his appearance, he was going to be an accomplice to the evil.
Just as the great lord often said to himself-sometimes for the sake of justice, you have to play the role of the great devil first.
In the city, George, Owen and others divided their troops into two groups, leading about a hundred people, holding the banner of the Holy Court, like holy envoys, swaggering through the streets and heading straight for the castle.
The residents on the road looked at the holy envoys in gorgeous clothes, and talked about it. These ordinary citizens were not aware of what was happening in the military affairs of the city at all, but felt that such a big man could come to visit, which made the Eagle City glorious.
In the bustle, many singers and bards ran out of the tavern onto the street, and the residents spontaneously followed the team. For a while, the scene was extremely lively.
"As you said, Alfonso. This fog does not have much impact on the South." George looked at the rows of houses in the city and the bustling crowds around, feeling as if he had returned to the city of clear water.
He looked at the well-dressed and strong residents, and George couldn't help but feel a little envious.
In his mind, he couldn't help but recall the family of three he saw in Yongfeng City. The woman, wearing a fur coat, tricked her husband and children away, and found a rotten bone in the trash can at the door of a tavern. It was crawling with creeping things, and the stench could be smelled here.
The woman's clothes were full of food, and in order not to see those things, she closed her eyes.
Tears kept pouring out of her eyes.
But here, it was like two different worlds from Yongfeng City.
There was too little arable land in the Kingdom of Rodunk. Compared with that, this place was like a paradise.
He finally understood why those southern nobles had such a contemptuous attitude towards this disaster. They had never seen famine before.
"It still has some impact. Judging from the kingdom's tax revenue, the grain output is decreasing year by year." Alfonso shook his head and said, "If the residents of this Eagle City are also so skinny and hungry, the kingdom may have been shattered."
"The domestic riots are getting more and more. And we can't reduce taxes." Speaking of this, Alfonso looked at the snow on the houses and his heart became heavier. At this time last year, the snow had completely melted. In February, the farmland was full of people busy with spring planting.
In many lands of Elda, wheat can often be planted for two seasons. But this year's winter wheat is probably all frozen to death.
This year's seasons are very disordered. The farming experience accumulated by farmers over thousands of years is no longer suitable. They can no longer adapt to the vast land of Elda, and there are only a handful of scholars who understand agriculture. There is simply not enough manpower and material resources to convey various knowledge to various villages and teach farmers to change this millennium-old habit.
He suddenly recalled the wandering young scholar who had come to visit the capital. He said that after the blood moon, the entire Elda Kingdom would begin to suffer from famine.
(The scholar was actually Anthony, but Alfonso had not met him at that time, and even if he had, the great scholar 'Anthony' with big gem rings on his ten fingers was too different from the 'wandering downtrodden scholar'.)
At that time, the nobles of the Elda Kingdom had always laughed at this, but now, the prophecy has come true.
If the kingdom does not make changes, the Skyhawk Castle will become another Wind Singing City.
At this time, the patrol team coming from a distance saw this group of grand celebrations. The leader was so scared that he asked his adjutant to report the situation to the castle, and then led people to clear the way in front, and sent people behind the team to let the residents who followed keep a good distance.
When George and others slowly came to the bottom of the castle, Leighton and the falcons were already standing in front of the castle gate with a confused look on their faces, waiting to welcome them. The grooms and servants hurried back and forth in front of the castle gate, arranging various matters.
Count Darris looked at the group of people in front of him with a wonderful expression. He had known for a long time that the Knight of the Throne would come to visit. He had prepared a lot of things for this - as long as this group of people had not entered the city, he had plenty of ways to make it a done deal.
But now that this group of people has made such a big noise, the flags of the Holy See and Prince Alfonso outside the city are fluttering in the wind on the towers and streets. The castle is like a thunderbolt. He tried his best to hide the news, but the news had already reached the old man's ears.
After confirming the flags in his old home, he got up from the bed and put on his clothes. By the time he finished putting on his clothes, he was sweating coldly. Then he thought about it and looked outside at the flags. Suddenly he changed his mind, took off all his clothes, and lay back on the bed.
When he was done, the old duke was already pale and sweating profusely. After taking a few deep breaths, he asked the servants to call Tanya to take care of him, and then specifically ordered Earl Leiden, not Earl Darris, to lead a group of people to come out to greet him.
These arrangements made Earl Darris pale.
Now standing at the gate, Earl Darris looked at the flags rising on the city walls and even the cathedral in the distance, and listened to the servant whispering to him about the "arbitration group". He couldn't help sweating profusely.
The whole city has been taken over by the Holy See.
He knew that the next duke would be between his son and daughter, and he no longer had any qualifications to succeed his elder brother.
Even Leighton was probably just a bargaining chip for the old duke to ask for political benefits. If these side branches said no today, I'm afraid no one would be able to leave this city again.
Maybe he would be labeled as a "blood demon" and thrown into the cell.
What virtue did Alfonso have to let the Holy See stand behind him? !
What virtue did the Sky Eagle Family have to let the Holy See directly intervene in the succession? !
The Knight of the Throne could not represent the Holy See at all. This was definitely his evil plan. But even if he knew in his heart that he might be taking advantage of the situation, or using chicken feathers as a token of authority, this day would change!
Because this situation and this token of authority were more than enough!
Even those fools who firmly followed him were now in doubt and acting like fence-sitters!
What frightened Daris even more was that Yudlan and others who had been watching coldly started to get angry today, and some even started to mock him directly
Although the reception of the Sky Eagle Family was hasty, it was not simple. Except for the old duke who was unable to move, almost all the important figures in the entire castle lined up at the door to greet him.
The people in this visiting team were too important. Whether it was the Knight of the Throne or Prince Alfonso, they should be treated with the highest standard of etiquette.
Originally, whether it was Prince Alfonso or Duke Yongfeng, the nobles present did not have to kneel, after all, they were loyal to King Elda.
But the status of the Knight of the Throne is too special, he is equivalent to a cardinal, so when the delegation arrived at the door, the nobles all put their left hands on their chests, took off their hats with their right hands, and knelt on one knee until the Lord nodded slightly in return and got off the horse. Everyone bowed and stood up.
Only the regional bishop who happened to visit the castle today to visit the Duke stood there with an embarrassed face.
However, he was the first to greet him, and with the etiquette of a priest meeting a bishop, he gave the most cordial greetings to the Knight of the Throne and his old boss, Lord Wallace.
After George passed by, he shook off the bishop who wanted to kiss his iron gloves. He walked up and gave Earl Leighton a big hug. Then he gave Earl Judlan the Wild Boar and several former comrades a big hug.
