Chapter 47: The Oath of Govin IV
If it was a quarrel before Tiana put down the harsh words, then after the Pope and the Grand Elders of the Council came, they were arguing in an orderly manner.
There is no need to talk about the prince's accession to the throne, and it is basically handled according to the "two walks" of the Pope and the President of the Council......
As for how to deal with the demon stainers, this in itself does not matter the interests of the major nobles, so since the head of the demon hunter and the new king unanimously demanded a "thorough investigation", it is a thorough investigation......
Finally, there is the issue of the withdrawal of the private armies of the major nobles, although Tiana has already said nothing, but you can't stand the cunning of those nobles, for a while, what "in order to save the car every day, now people are sleepy and tired, and they need to be repaired", what "the outside boast that I have three thousand private troops in Xiongdu, but in fact, there are only two or three hundred people", and some people even alluded to, "The Mian Wei family should not be so domineering, don't forget that there are still 10,000 elites outside the city" in your family......
Hao only felt that he was dizzy from being argued, and seeing that there was nothing to do with him when this meeting went on, he simply made an excuse and left the meeting hall.
"Will ...... Your Excellency!" At the end of the long corridor in front of the council hall, a beautiful figure stopped Hao.
"Oh, it's you?" Hao felt a little surprised, the other party was the eldest lady of the Crownguard family, Galen's own sister, Laxana Crownguard.
"What kind of general am I! The eldest lady is called by the name of the next, Hao, it's okay!" Hao laughed, calling the general in front of the people of the crown guard family?
"Hao, uh, okay. Lux, looking a little nervous, timidly pointed to the council hall and asked, "How's it going inside?"
"It's not good! They are arguing and arguing, and their heads hurt. Hao replied truthfully.
"That'...... Did you say anything about what to do with the Charmers?" asked Lux, anxious.
"What can I do?" Hao understood that his next words might hurt the simple eldest lady of the crown guard family in front of him, but this will soon not be a secret, but a decree! Hao sighed and slowly spit out four words, "Thoroughly investigate!"
"A thorough investigation?" Lux hadn't reacted yet.
"That's right, if there is no one left, it will be a disaster for the entire Demacia Demon Stainer......" Hao remembered the impatience and casualness of the people in the council hall discussing this issue, and felt that Nameless was on fire, the life of magicians in Demacia was sad enough in the past, so it is estimated that a little girl like Alice will have no room to survive. Whereas...... Moreover, it is about the survival of thousands of people, how can it be so casual?
"Oh no! they can't do that! it's not right!" exclaimed Lux, provoking the guards in the far hall to cast their eyes in this direction.
"Talking to me about this doesn't help. Hao spread his hands, and he was also very distressed, especially when he thought of Alice just now, which made him a little helpless.
"Hey, can I ask you for a favor?" Hao's eyes suddenly lit up, this Lux was simply the best person sent by God to help him solve Alice's problem!
"Well, you said, you saved my life in the square, but I was so rude today that I didn't have time to thank you!" Lux whispered with a sad face.
"Miss, you're polite, that's my duty as a Demacian soldier!" Hao waved his hand, not wanting to waste too much on this topic, so he hurriedly told Alice about it......
"Oh, then what are you hesitating about?" Luxe immediately exclaimed excitedly after hearing this, and even took Hao's hand and dragged Hao to the outside.
"Go...... Where are you going?" Hao suddenly felt that the roots of his ears were so hot, this had nothing to do with experience, it was purely an instinctive reaction of the body, you must know that he was still a pure little place in this world
a
What's more, Lux is still recognized by the world as the No. 1 beauty in Xiongdu!
"Where to go, of course, to poor little Alice!" Lux's idea was obviously very simple, but in reality there was such a simple thing?
The two of them searched for a whole day, but they still couldn't find Alice, and they couldn't even get any news about the little girl......
There's no way, it's actually these low-level citizens who are most affected by this Xiongdu turmoil!
The originally bustling downtown is now full of doors, every household is closed doors and windows, and the conditional nature is to go out of the city to avoid chaos, and it really can't go, at this time, whether you are a magician or the kingdom army, you just don't open the door anyway.
"......" The two of them returned to the door of the conference hall, and their mood was a little low, and neither of them spoke for a while.
"Sister, huh, and you, boy?" just then, Galen's hearty voice fell into the ears of the two of them.
"What a boy!" Hao was very dissatisfied with the title that Galen had imposed on him, and rolled his eyes and exclaimed, "It seems that I am much older than you, called brother!"
"Go aside, you dare to take advantage of me!" is the same man in the army, mutual damage is the norm, Galen is not angry, relying on his big waist and round waist to squeeze Hao aside, then he dotingly took Lux's little hand, and said seriously, "Brother told you, this kid looks loyal and honest on the surface, but in fact, he is cunning, full of bad water! Sister, you have to stay away from him in the future!"
"I'll go! Do you believe that I'm going to duel with you?" Hao's face was full of black lines, and this Galen had also seen a little bit of the master's methods in the Black Sea Fortress, so he never forgot it, right?
"Duel?" ......said Galen, reaching for the great sword behind him.
"You two! Annoying people!" Lux stomped her foot and looked angry, "Can you get down to business?"
"Straight to business...... Belch...... The deputy regiment of the Sixth Independent Regiment of the Twelfth Corps listened to the order!" Galen suddenly said in a very serious voice, "Preparations for the funeral ceremony of the old king will begin in the early hours of tomorrow morning, and the security work of the Xiongdu will be fully responsible for the Dreadnought Pioneer Regiment, and the City Guard, Praetorian Guard, and Central Army will be directly dispatched by the Dreadnought Pioneer Regiment as long as they have the manpower and material resources in the Xiongdu." As the swordsman of the Dreadnought Vanguard Regiment, I order you to protect His Majesty Gawain IV tomorrow!"
"Obey ......" Even if Galen doesn't say anything, Hao will do Gavin's escort work on his own, but in this way? Hao looked at Lux.
"What for?" said Galen, with a raised eyebrows, dissatisfied, "My sister doesn't need your protection!"
"Brother, what are you talking nonsense? We want to ask you to help check someone, this matter is very urgent. Lux stepped forward and took Galen's big hand, shaking it and snorting.
"If the person you want to check is Silas, don't say it anymore, now the whole of Demacia is looking for him......" It can be seen that Galen is very doting on his sister, and even the volume of his speech is deliberately lowered a lot.
"Oh......" Lux's expression suddenly darkened as he said Silas, but she still had to finish what she had to say, "It's not him, it's a little girl I'm asking you to help you find." ”
"Little girl?" asked Galen's big heart in disbelief, "you and Silas?"
"Smack!" Lux originally wanted to slap her confused brother, but the height difference was a bit big, and the slap hit Galen's armor, only to see that Lux was so ashamed that she was incoherent, she pointed at Hao, and shouted at Galen, "What Silas!
"Evil ...... Evil...... Disaster...... Woe!" Galen suddenly drew his great sword and threw it into the sky, and then half of the people in the capital saw a huge sword with golden light falling from the sky......
The next day, when the early morning sun sprinkled Xiongdu, the huge bell on the bell tower also rang, a full thirteen times, the thick bell in the ears of everyone actually carried endless sorrow, which of course represents the beginning of the old king's funeral ceremony.
"These are dark times. Gallvin IV stood on the podium in the grand square and said sadly, and there was a whole row of warriors of the Fearless Pioneer Regiment standing beside him, each of whom pestled the long sword on the ground, allowing the blade to reflect the dazzling light wantonly, and everyone who shook their heads did not dare to look directly.
Hao originally wanted to be Jiawen's guard, but now that he has no place for himself, he has to stand in the crowd, watching for anything unusual from afar.
It is very strange that even if it is far away, Jiawen's voice still falls into everyone's ears very clearly, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it floats in the sky over the entire Xiongdu, some people say that this is the masterpiece of the legendary sculptor Du Lang using acoustics, but in Hao's eyes, "Cut, it is a magic of amplification!"
Jiawen's voice continued to come out slowly......
"Our father, my father, died at the hands of a madman, and there seems to be no hope in the world......"
"The king-killer assassins have fled the capital, and the treacherous seems to have gained the upper hand. ”
"But, cheer up, believe ......"
"We will not sleep until the way of heaven is stretched and the way forward is clear again!!
The old king's corpse was carried by eight purple-robed guards, but in front of him was a warrior of the dreadnought vanguard regiment, riding a war horse in full armor and holding torches high, all of which still showed that the current situation in Xiongdu was still tense, otherwise it should be led by the people of the Light Shield family.
According to tradition, when the corpse arrives at the podium, King Jiawen IV should come down and bow down and prostrate, but according to yesterday's resolution, this process has also been simplified, and the prince can only watch his old father sleep in the corpse covered with flowers with a blank face, first leaning towards himself, and then gradually moving away......
The prince closed his eyes, a tear silently slid down his cheek, and he made an oath in his heart, "The scourge of magic will ignite the city's rage like never before, damned demon stainers, are you ready?
