Proof of the Sun King

In early November, the time has gradually moved from late autumn to early winter, and the climate of the capital Curona is gradually getting colder.

The victory of the defense of Chantillon gave birth to five new knights, who were awarded the title of Ranger Knights at the Curona Palace. Lane focused on commending the Northern Front headed by Callard, and personally awarded Callard the Grand Holy Grail. The Legion of Honor Medal, all the meritorious soldiers below Callard have also been rewarded enough, and the king ordered to publicize this victory, and also reminded everyone not to take it lightly.

Ulfric and his dragonship fleet are wandering outside the Claw Sea, looking for the next opportunity to invade!

The winner's reward, the loser's compensation, the town of Chantillon is destroyed, it is expected to take a month or two to rebuild, this matter will be handled by Lawn, the town of Chantillon is under his jurisdiction, and Lane will also hand it over to him Do.

After a meeting, Ryan received very little information, and many of the information were contradictory. Some sources indicated that Ulfric's invasion had been premeditated, the Norsca would go to war with Britania, and some The news indicates that this was just a trial and routine raid by the northern barbarians, and there is even news that it is because Ulfric-Wanderer and his legion were abandoned by Chaos, and the war with the dark elves did not select them, so This group of people came to trouble the kingdom of knights.

With so many things going on, Ryan looked at the existing news, and only felt it was a mess. It was difficult to tell which news was trustworthy and which ones were false. The King of Knights could only temporarily judge that this invasion of Chaos was not a simple one. Tempting or looting, Ryan vaguely remembered the source of Aurora's previous news, that is, it is said that there is a Chaos power in the north gathering an army, but this news has not been confirmed or has any strong evidence, and the previous news has been It has been shown that the target of the Chaos Power is the Dark Elves, and it has been confirmed.

Furthermore, if the prophecy of the possible Eternal God's Choice Archaen is collected enough to fit three large wooden boxes, do you think the people of the old world have no idea?

The Empire has successively sent several armies or witchers and battle priests to find Archaon, but the result is either missing or becoming an idiot who advocates Chaos and a faithful believer of Chaos.

Britannia also once sent some knights to expedition to the Chaos Wasteland, some died in battle, some were corrupted by Chaos, the most famous expedition knight who came back to Britannia to advocate the Slaanesh dogma and was finally burned at the stake. His name was Gillette, and he met the famous Slaanesh Demon Azacel. During a one-on-one duel, the expedition knight suddenly knelt on his knees and was beheaded in front of Slaanesh, without any resistance.

According to the currently known information, the only person in the world who can enter the Chaos Domain in the Chaos Wasteland and come back intact is the Dark Elf Witch King Malekith, but in fact Ryan learned from Lilith that Malekith also It is not a "full body" in the true sense. He was able to successfully return to Nagaros. In addition to his bloodline of the Phoenix King, the witch queen Morassi's transaction with Slaanesh, and the sacrifice of countless most precious sacrifices including A Demon Toad Slan, who had spent countless costs, succeeded in doing it.

Ryan himself didn't dare to break into the Chaos Wasteland, not because he was timid, but if he broke into the Chaos Wasteland, he would be a firefly in the darkness, a Husky among the wolves, he could guarantee that he would be discovered by countless Chaos demons wherever he went. And to attack them in groups, even the Primarch would not be able to consume so much.

What, you mean Grey Knight Grand Master Caldo Diego? Years of slaughtering demons in the warp?

There are two points to emphasize here. First, the warp is not equal to the chaotic domain, nor is there only chaos in the warp.

Second, Diego's strength is demigod-level, but he is not as invincible as he imagined. He ate a curse from the Chaos Great Demon Reborn Mka and was trapped in the warp for life, and it was difficult to escape. Don't look at him killing so happily, in fact, it's just that the Four Chaos Gods are just waiting for him to be corrupted and degenerate, so they don't spend their energy on dealing with him, and the demons he kills and the Chaos areas destroyed will be endlessly reborn and restored.

This is different for Ryan. As the Primarch of the Grey Knight, except for the Great Chaos Demon, he has not yet been able to completely kill the other Chaos Demons. If he kills other Chaos Demons, he is really dead, and the Chaos things he destroys are really destroyed. .

Third, one of the important reasons Diego was able to defeat Mortarion was that the Emperor told him Mortarion's real name of the demon, and the Emperor's request for the Primarch Ryan was that I would not tell you the real name of the demon , You have to interpret it yourself. This is a skill that you must master as the Grey Knight Primarch. Ryan is only in his forties this year, so it is not that easy to master this skill.

The real name of the Chaos Demon is not something that the emperor can read once. Ordinary people can remember it after repeating it. The difficulty is probably to let an ordinary person master high-level calculus from scratch, and as long as he fails a little bit, he will be corrupted by chaos. , explosion in situ, turning into chaos eggs on the spot, and so on. Most of the real names of demons only need the first letter or pronunciation to make a large group of people go crazy on the spot and directly lead to countless terrifying existences.

After the meeting, Ryan immediately made two decisions. The first was to call Aurora and Teresa to Curona to assign new tasks. The second was to call the Empire and Kislev again to ask for news.

The communication empire is fine, it only takes half a day, while the communication for Kislev takes three whole days. All Ryan can do now is wait.

Being locked in the palace was quite annoying, and what Ryan didn’t like was that there were a lot of rules in Curona Palace, and the king of knights would be controlled from head to toe, so after the meeting, Ryan and Callard came out to Curona alone. Going around in the suburbs of Nacheng, on the one hand, listening to him describe the details of the battle, on the other hand, it also reflects the importance he attaches to him.

Early winter is gray, because at this time, the sky in Brittany is always gray, no sunlight, no vitality, early winter is yellow, there is no spring and summer in the fields, only after harvest. That big piece of yellow.

Some of the slack serfs and free people chose to go to the city to work. Recently, Lawen issued an order to recruit people to repair Chantillon town. Not bad for this meal and those freedmen who are paid in copper coins sitting on the ridge and the gate of the manor bragging and chatting.

The sparrows began to fly in flocks. The few yellowish leaves on the tree were whirling in the winter wind. It seemed that they were about to fall from the tree. The joy of the harvest was still haunting everyone's faces. On, the big guy didn't pay attention to the passing carriages and the people who were listening in the corners, but discussed the recent great harvest and the battle of Chantillon to his heart's content.

Because of the great victory, the commoners not only felt honored, but also had a very lively discussion. The two Holy Grail knights in the group were not surprised by this, and Ryan smiled at Callard: "This time you are really famous, my earl."

"Your Majesty is wise and resolute, I just played my role at the right opportunity." Callard noticed that Lane was very interested in the chats of those farmers and freedman artisans, Earl Garamente emphasized: "Your Majesty , do you think we should immediately dispatch the Poseidon fleet to deal with Ulfric and his Legion of Worldwalkers?"

"Ulfric lost a game like this, it's not easy to rebuild the army." Ryan did not directly answer Callard's question, and the king of knights shook his head: "Callard, do you have a feeling?"

"What does it feel like, Your Majesty?" Callard followed Ryan's footsteps, the two of them wearing brown robes and cloaks, they looked like two travelers.

"Normally, Karad, the barbarian invasions encountered in Brittany's history generally have only two endings." Lane pointed to the manor in the distance: "The first is the burning, killing and looting by the barbarians. After you've had enough of your addiction, retreat."

"The second is the failure of the barbarians. In this case, have you ever seen the Norsca retreating? When is it not necessary to fight to the end?"

"Yes." Callard nodded, recalling the Aegir invasion: "Your Majesty, do you still remember Aegir-Red-Eye? He could have directly broken the Lyonnais race at that time, but he finally chose to ask for the championship duel, because He wants that boy."

"That's right." Ryan nodded, and the king of knights looked at the field of Corona, and he said seriously: "For the Norsca, the most glorious thing is undoubtedly to burn, kill, loot and blaspheme the south in the name of the evil god. The land of the bastards, I know this better than anyone, don't forget, I grew up in Nord, and if the Norsca do something out of line, there is only one conclusion, their conspiracy is far higher As for the so-called most glorious thing, then there is only one explanation for Ulfric's retreat, that is, there is an existence higher than him, or even the evil god, who asked him to retreat."

"That's right, Your Majesty, that's why both Lawn and I judge that this is just the beginning." Callard was not surprised that Ryan came to this conclusion, he thought that it was not like Ryan, his conclusion was something everyone could think of , it's a bit... superficial.

Ryan looked at Callard's expression and knew what he was thinking, the King of Knights thought about you before he thought of the first floor, and I thought of the third floor: "Then the question is, Callard, why did Ulfric choose? Retreat, but the second did not retreat to Norsca, and the third did not attack in another place, but led the dragon ship fleet to wander back and forth in our outer sea? He does not attack, does not loot, and does not return, this is not the evil god's most annoying waste. Time does nothing?"

"This..." Callard couldn't answer, yes, isn't Ulfric a waste of time to do this?

"Karad, what do you think?" Ryan said calmly with his hands behind his back.

"Your Majesty, I think there must be something strange about this matter." Callard immediately understood: "According to what you know about the Norsca people, Ulfric will not give up like this, but his actions are very abnormal, which shows that behind this There must be a bigger conspiracy."

"So, so I eagerly want to know more information." Ryan nodded slowly, and the King of Knights noticed that a group of traveling bands had come to the manor, and he motioned to Callard to look over there: "But I always have a feeling. "

"What does it feel like, Your Majesty?" Callard knew that due to the development of the economy, Britannia began to have such bands or performance groups that travel together like the empire, performing around the manor and earning a small living allowance.

"Do you think that Ulfric's doing this has diverted our attention a bit and dragged our main force into it?" Ryan said in a low voice, "So, I have a feeling that something big must happen, That's why we are eager to get more information from the Empire and Kislev, if we rush the Poseidon fleet, it will become that we are led by the nose by Ulfric."

"Yes!" Karad nodded in agreement.

At this time, the band in the distance seemed to have negotiated a price with the commoners of the manor, and they began to prepare to play.

The band consists of a trumpet player, a singer, an accordion player and a marimba player.

After a cheerful prelude, the singer began to sing, and with an emotional voice, he sang moving poetry and music.

"From Alençon to Port Chantillon ~ to Port Chantillon ~"

"The whole of Brittany is under attack~under attack~"

"Count Calard will lead all Bretons~lead all Bretons~"

"Tell them we're fearless~fearless~"

The accordionist played a cheerful little tune.

"The barbarian tribe of Norsca is awakening~is awakening~"

"Don't touch our country~our country~"

"Count Calard will lead all Bretons~lead all Bretons~"

"Tell them we're fearless~fearless~"

Soon the people of the manor gathered together and began to sing in a voice full of pride, singing of Karad's brilliant achievements and victory over the barbarians.

"There is a special poem to sing your praises so soon, Callard?" Ryan laughed when he heard it, and the King of Knights was very interested in it: "When did it appear?"

"Uh, that day, there was a group of bards in Chantillon town~www.wuxiaspot.com~ They didn't run far when they were evacuated, they were so daring enough to watch my duel with Ulfric not far away, After we won, they wrote and composed the lyrics live, and they wrote this song called 'removechaos', and now it's being sung all over Curona, even Le-Angouran and Lyonnaise." Callard blushed a little, and he was a little embarrassed: "I told Regent Law about this, but he said it was a good thing."

"It's a good thing, you deserve it." Ryan wondered why the more he listened to this song, the more thirsty he became? He wanted to drink a little water: "Sometimes you need to make unannounced visits to the grassroots. This will help you understand what the people are thinking, and their hearts turn against them."

"Yes." Callard also felt that his mouth was a little dry.

At this time, an old guard musket dragoon came from a distance on a war horse, breaking the silence: "Your Majesty! Emergency news from the empire! Expedited military information signed by the emperor himself!"

"Give it to me!" Ryan immediately took the letter, and then motioned for Callard to come over and read it together.

The two Holy Grails gathered together, looking at the words on the parchment, their expressions were gradually distorted and distorted, and the veins on Ryan's hands burst out, wrinkling the parchment.

After reading a message with hundreds of words, Callard and Ryan looked at each other with blood on their faces. Thousands of words came together and finally turned into one word.

"Fuck!"

"Notify all the dukes immediately, come to Curona for a meeting! Immediately!"

"Yes!"

Lane just received news on this side, and on the other side, the capital of the Empire, Brunswick, the Imperial Palace, the Imperial Parliament. .

All the electors and the holders of the right to elect, as well as many generals and representatives of the mages of the empire were all present.

The enlarged meeting of the Imperial Parliament was held here urgently.
