Chapter 190 Fight to Fame
It was a chaotic day for Solid Stone City. It was the same for the Skal Federation. People lowered their heads and walked on the streets, whispering to each other and exchanging information with each other. The whole city seemed depressed and heavy.
, the atmosphere of joy originally generated by the upcoming harvest festival has disappeared, replaced by fear, uneasiness, and questions. It is no wonder that these citizens cannot suppress their doubts and uneasiness. They saw the eagle on the plateau with their own eyes.
, Sturke's pale face, witnessed the destruction of the Knights of Radiant Wings. They even saw how their highly respected lord, Lord Sulet, had a pale face and humiliated himself in front of them.
The scene of a young noble apologizing. All of this completely subverted their values. If yesterday, the world in their eyes was still normal, then from this moment on, they found that the world they saw was no longer so normal.
.
At least not as normal as they think.
The people at the bottom are panic-stricken, but other forces hidden in the darkness are ready to move. Anyone who observes carefully will not ignore the unmistakable signal that the young noble's flag is alongside the Parwood family and the fact that it has never failed.
The news revealed in this.
"I didn't expect that the Parwood family would have such a trump card."
In a brightly lit room, a nobleman in rich clothes leaned on a chair and spoke with a teasing expression. He wore a golden wig, and his whole body to his boots were bright red and dazzling. Let
He looks like a red chili pepper.
"I don't think that's funny, LaRue."
Hearing what the nobleman said, the middle-aged man who was anxiously walking alone in the room turned his head and glared at his brother with dissatisfaction. He was wearing a dark dress, compared to his brother's dress of a court jester. He
Their dress is more normal. However, judging from the fact that they are dressed in pitch black from beginning to end, including the wig on their head, these two people are still related by blood.
Box has enough reason to worry. As members of the Soros family, they have been preparing for this day for a long time. Winning over the Knights of Radiant Wings and convincing other nobles. All this is the old man sitting behind the ancient cedar desk
means, and as his sons and his assistants, all they have to do is fulfill their father's expectations. In fact, they have worked hard enough and succeeded enough. For this, they have also paid a considerable price, persuading
Those nobles who wavered in their stance had a price to pay, and the price to convince the Knights of Radiant Wings was even higher. Sterk was not an easy man to be bribed. But luckily they found common interests. In the end, they accomplished it
An impossible task, and the Soros family has gained an ally that is absolutely worth relying on.
Until this afternoon.
Box stared at his brother without curiosity, and he was still sitting on the sofa shaking his legs like a complete fool. Damn it, it's this bastard!! He should know how much effort he spent to do it.
It took a lot of effort to get Lord Surlet to side with the Soros family. But this bastard actually instructed Lord Surlet to find trouble with the Parwood family's motorcade just because he wanted Lord Surlet to prove that he was trustworthy!
Frankly speaking, Box himself doesn't think this is such a troublesome thing. It's just a small trouble. The Parwood family wants to be careful. Even if they suffer a loss, they won't do anything drastic. In Box's view
, the only thing the Parwood family can do is to lodge a fierce protest against Lord Surlet afterwards. But this is no big deal. It is just a waste of saliva. The Soros family is a military family that advocates iron blood, fighting and conquest. For them,
The only use of the tongue that talks about right and wrong is to be cut off and eaten with salt.
But now, Box began to regret why he didn't investigate the people in this convoy in advance. But now he no longer has to investigate. Because at this moment, almost everyone who is qualified to participate in this federal meeting has passed various procedures.
Information about the young man was obtained through various channels.
Jan Bashanonmens. He was once a down-and-out nobleman. Later, he responded to the call of the Holy Church and entered the Dark Territory. Although it is not known what he did in that cursed place, it is obvious that he successfully succeeded.
After completing the mission of the Templar Church, and thus receiving the official status of a knight, he went to Parsus and settled there. The reason was that he was the widow of a companion who died while adventuring in the Underdark.
He was living there, and he had to abide by his oath to take care of him. After that, he had been in the town of Parsus, and then for unknown reasons, the Parwood family gave him the Starfall Fang.
This is all the intelligence they can collect on the surface. Of course, there is also a very subtle mention that this young man has considerable power. But Box can be sure that if he had received this information before today, I am afraid he would also
He would not take this sentence seriously. After all, if he had not witnessed it with his own eyes, he would never believe that a young man less than twenty years old could so easily depose the leader of the Knights of Radiant Wings and let him
Suffer the frustration and pain of failure.
But now, this has become a fact.
But this is not a big deal. What is important is Box's painful discovery that the alliance they thought they had finally formed is now undergoing a very severe test.
Sterk never came out after returning to the headquarters of the Knights of Radiant Wings, and even ordered his men to seal off the entire station. After that, Lord Sulet also refused to receive the envoys he sent. Obviously,
He is considering whether his choice is correct. And Box believes that other allies he has tried so hard to convince may have the same concerns and worries. To be honest, they did not take the Parwood family to heart before. After all, the Parwood family
They are not good at military affairs, nor are they good at fighting. Although they are very good at catering to various forces and can maintain a delicate relationship of balance and development. But if they do not have strong enough strength, they will not be able to win.
But now it seems that the Parwood family has found the last piece of the puzzle on the map of victory.
In three days, the federal meeting will begin. But now the situation has changed. The young man brought by the Parwood family is not only powerful, but also has an elite army. Although in terms of numbers, it is obviously not as good as the Glory.
There were many wings, but Box knew very well that the intimidation of the Wings of Glory did not come from its numbers to a large extent.
Now, this deterrence has been shaken. He has even heard that some nobles are discussing what will happen if the Parwood family succeeds in obtaining the position of the next governor of the Skar Federation. Many of them are worried.
The powerful Parwood family may completely force the Knights of Radiant Wings to leave their original position - after all, they made too many wrong choices before this.
While Box was thinking hard about how to deal with the situation at hand, in a hotel on the other side of Solid Rock City, Delly was also frowning and staring at the man sitting in front of her.
"You really shouldn't be so impulsive, Mr. Jenn."
At this moment, Delly didn't even have the strength to sigh. In fact, it was not that she had not expected to have a conflict with the Knights of Radiant Wings, but in Delly's mind, this conflict should have reached the last moment.
It would only happen when the two sides were at odds with each other. But what she didn't expect was that she would have to witness a battle with the Knights of Radiant Wings as soon as she stepped into the gate of Solid Stone City.
This is just like the hero in the RPG game who was supposed to go through all the hard work to go deep into the Demon King's castle to defeat the last demon army, but when he confidently stepped out of the city gate, he found that the opponent had been knocked to the ground.
"Take it easy, Miss Delly."
But compared to Delly's helplessness, the expression of the person involved seemed more relaxed.
"Isn't this a good thing? Look, I have solved your biggest problem, the Knights of Radiant Wings, and that duplicitous idiot lord is probably trembling under the quilt right now, regretting his previous stupid decision.
Sorry. I think you might have an unexpected surprise before the meeting starts."
"For us, as long as everything goes well, it's the best surprise."
Hearing Zhan's heartless answer, Delly complained helplessly. But what else could she say? It was not the first time that she had dealt with Zhan. As for his weird thoughts and behaviors, Delly herself
I think she understands it quite well. From this point of view, everything that happened in Solid Rock City today is actually normal. Except for Zhan En's strength - to be honest, although Delly understands that Zhan En has quite strong strength.
I didn't expect that he would be so powerful. The reputation of Knight Commander Sterk of the Wings of Glory is well-known throughout the Eagle Plateau. Even Delly grew up listening to his legends. For her,
In other words, although Sterk is an enemy, he is also a "legendary man."
But that "legendary man" was beaten so hard by Zhan not long ago that he couldn't even get up.
Because of this, when looking at Zhan En, Delly's expression was a little complicated. On the one hand, she was really shocked by Zhan En's strength, and on the other hand, she was quite speechless by what Zhan En had done. In fact, theoretically
In other words, there is nothing wrong with what Zhan did from the perspective of the nobles. He was just a little tougher and a little wilder...
Well, it seems there are more than a few.
"Stop talking nonsense, Miss Delly, I don't think you came to my room so late just to complain."
As he spoke, Zhan put down the wine glass in his hand and stared at the girl in front of him with a strange smile. When he heard Zhan's words, Delly nodded quickly.
"That's right, Mr. Zhan, I do have something to report when I come here this time."
After saying this, the girl's face suddenly became much more serious, and then she stared at Zhan En and spoke word by word.
"Father, I want to see you." (To be continued...)
