Volume I: The Vanishing Land, Chapter 34

As one of the oldest families in the entire Tremia continent, its origin can be traced back to the period of the gods, the establishment of the Brest Dynasty, the Sagu people have made great contributions, when they were glorious, the number of clans spread all over the continent, almost all important official positions and provinces have their figures, they also have the silver army that can rival the Maxim Pollo Legion, but unfortunately during the first and second continental wars, the Sagu people suffered heavy casualties, and one of the most important guards of the gods was also after the third continental war, caught in the internal struggle between the royal family and the sacrificial church, and was exterminated by the Samon Empress in Daqing。

The Silver Legion's job is to protect the internal security of the Brest Dynasty, at that time they had a lot of power in their hands, except for the direct royal family, they could give orders to hunt down all the suspects, first cut and then play, because of this, offended many royal relatives, the father of the current Queen of Samon, the former Prince of Samon, died in the trial of the Silver Legion. After the turmoil in the mainland, the royal family and the church came to power one after another, and such a legion was very jealous of both the royal family and the church, so a big purge wiped out all the people associated with the silver legion, and the chief judge of the silver legion at that time was Taylor's grandfather. There are a lot of people involved in this big Qingqing, and now the old people who have experienced the big Qingqing are still alive recall, at that time, in the Brett fortress, the fire was full of light, and it was impossible to tell whether it was day or night, there were corpses on every street, and the royal guards wantonly entered the people's homes, and only if there were any objects about the silver army at home, the whole family was killed in the street, and the whole fortress was in chaos at that time, and the most densely populated places in the whole continent at that time were the prisons, and then there were too many people who were arrested, and many people were directly executed after being caught, and the places that could be seen in the fortress were all stained red with blood, and the corpses were piled up for half a year and were not cleaned upIt took more than a year for the water of the Seine River, which flowed through the fortress, to become clear again, and you can imagine how many people were killed in this big Qing.

The purge lasted for decades, and it was not until the last Sagu was killed that the bloody purge was completely over. The Sagu people who were killed in the end were Taylor's parents. And Xueluo, as a participant in the original Da Qingqing, naturally knows the fate of the Sagu people, this purge let everyone know the ruthlessness of Queen Samon, and also saw the arbitrary power of the royal family, even if there are sacrificial churches and military restrictions, but the royal family is still the power center of the entire Brett, Xueluo received Queen Samon's appreciation for his viciousness in the purge operation, and he is also the first prince who is not of royal blood, which is enough to prove that the royal family attaches great importance to him.

"Hmph! Even so, you are just a small sacrifice now, do you want revenge? If you can get out of this interrogation room, and then think about revenge, let's talk about what news you have obtained in the territory of Red, the tragic death of the royal agent in the territory of Red, does it have anything to do with you!" Although he was surprised, Xueluo still looked at it coldly, and then there were bursts of miserable screams in the interrogation room.

"How's it going?, did Prince Snowfall's interrogation go well?" asked Queen Samon, looking at a map, to the people around her.

"The little priest was tortured enough by Prince Yukiro, but he refused to say what happened in the territory of Red, and he refused to admit that he had killed us. The warden, who was on standby, replied.

"Oh, is it? The snow is still the same, and there is no way to live for your own people, keep asking, someone will always say it. Samon glanced at the warden and he consciously withdrew from the palace.

According to the Code of the Tripartite Alliance, unless the evidence is conclusive, all those who are investigated by the royal family or the sacrificial church or the military department can only be subjected to compulsory interrogation for no more than three days at most, so three days later, above the royal palace, all the royal relatives looked at Taylor who collapsed beyond recognition, and they couldn't help but feel pity in their hearts, Prince Xueluo was in charge of the Penal Code Prison Division, and there were countless people who had been tortured in his hands, and the cruelty of his methods and the viciousness of his punishment were well known to everyone in the whole of Brett, and few people were punished at his hands without pleading guilty。

"Report to Her Royal Highness, the subordinates are incompetent and have not found out the secrets of Red from his mouth. Hearing Xueluo say this, the people in the hall were full of voices, and everyone was surprised that someone could endure Xueluo's beating without admitting his guilt.

"Prince Xueluo did his best, I didn't expect this little sacrifice to have such arrogance, admirable, but it can't be used by my royal family, it's a pity, come on, drag it down and kill it." "Queen Samon didn't want to get anything out of Taylor's mouth.

"Stop, the people who worship the church, are you the ones you say you can kill?" Richie's figure suddenly appeared in the main hall, and the guards instantly surrounded him, and the breathers who were lying in ambush around the hall were also in good spirit.

Hearing Richie's voice, Queen Samon smiled slightly, the person she was waiting for came, so she asked everyone to retreat, walked to Richie alone, and looked at him, for a while, the temperature of the entire hall dropped suddenly, and everyone felt that they were in an ice cellar, and this chill came from their hearts.

"Bishop Richie, I've been waiting for a long time, how many years have I not seen you in the royal palace, and I thought that the sacrificial church had forgotten its identity!" Queen Samon gave a look, and in an instant, the powerful aura pressure pressed the retinue behind Richie to the ground.

With a wave of his hand, a blue breath as soft as silk enveloped everyone, and they instantly felt their pressure disappear, while Richie knelt down on one knee and saluted Queen Samon and said, "My subordinates see Queen Samon and the princes." ”

"Hmph!" Queen Samon looked at Richie in front of her with contempt, and returned to her throne without saying a word. Richie stood again in the hall along with all the priests behind him.

"Taylor sacrificed to someone suspected of killing the royal family, and his whereabouts disappeared after entering Red's territory, and I have reason to suspect that he secretly colluded with Red and even Blatter to deliberately rebel. Do you think I have the right to kill him?" asked Queen Samon, leaning on her toes, leaning on the throne, contemptuously.

"Her Royal Highness, this charge is really big. Richie stood in the main hall and said without humility or arrogance: "Taylor's sacrifice to Red is in accordance with the bishop's secret order, everything he does is in accordance with the regulations of the Sacrificial Church, he has told me everything he has seen and heard in Red, Her Royal Highness, if you want to know, just ask me directly, why embarrass a small sacrifice? Besides, the royal secret agent died in Red, and the Overseer has found out that he was killed by a summoner in Red, and he has this ability as a priest?"

"Bishop Richie said this, do you want to say that my royal family is slandering your sacrificial church? That bishop's secret order revealed to Red that my Brett military deployment is also Bishop Ritchie's meaning? I don't think so, how can our Bishop of Brett be like this, leaking military aircraft and treason and traitors?" Queen Samon held in her hand the bishop's secret order he gave to Taylor, Queen Samon smiled disdainfully: "Since it's not, that's Taylor's sacrifice, you say, is this evidence enough? Or does my royal family want to kill a sinner, and report to your sacrificial church?" Or is it that the church has been engaged in communicating with enemy nations?"

"You—" Bishop Rich was about to retort when suddenly the voice of an old man in the main hall came.

"In this case, the old man has to ask Her Royal Highness, the royal family withdrew troops from the front line privately, and the Chen soldiers entered the territory of Red without permission, do they want to cooperate with the enemy?" The original tense atmosphere in the hall was broken by this voice, and an old man in black and red armor with a white beard on his face, with his helmet on his waist with one hand, and the hilt of his sword with the other, his whole body was fighting, and he appeared in front of them without anger and self-authority.

"Oh, it's a coincidence today, the boss is also here, and my royal palace hasn't been so lively for many years. Queen Samon's tone was cold, and she waited viciously for the old man in front of her, he was the chief of the military department, the former commander-in-chief of the Polo Legion, the veteran of the Three Dynasties, and Horn Boley, the adjutant general of Maxim. The main hall, which was originally extremely cold, was now even more breathless, and the princes standing beside Queen Samon couldn't help but gasp, this was the first time they had seen this formation in their lives.

Queen Samon secretly mobilized her breath, and Old Horn felt that the breath around him was constantly distorting, so he put the sword on his waist against the main hall, and a huge white shield appeared in front of him, the whole person did not move like a bell, and it seemed that it was not affected, and the lines on the white giant shield were recognized by some princes, and they couldn't help but lose their mouths: "This is the pure white shield of the first king!"

Seeing that the people from the military department were intervening in it, Queen Samon was very unwilling, so she said: "My royal army entered the territory of Red precisely to find out the murderer, and we have found out the whereabouts of the summoner, as for the withdrawal of troops from the front, it is because we received news that Blatter has broken through Red's southwest camp, and in order to defend the border of Breit, we have transferred troops here." ”

"In that case, Bishop Rich's sending this child to the territory of Red in exchange for the Fourth Legion's defense map was also allowed by our military headquarters, how can there be treason, or can the bishop's secret order already be read at will?" Old Horn asked Queen Samon with a cold eyebrow.

The current situation made Samon very annoyed, but in the face of the joint attack of the two major forces of the military department and the sacrificial church, the elite of the royal family was not yet in the fortress, so he could only endure this breath for the time being, and said leisurely: "Boss, rest assured, the person who stole the bishop's secret order without permission has been executed by me, and it will be returned to the sacrificial church immediately. ”

"And the wronged Taylor sacrifice was beaten in vain?" shouted Thorne angrily, seeing that the royal family had shirked all the blame, and he could not care about Richie's stopping.

"What? My royal family, the Queen's Majesty wants to interrogate a person and kill a person, can't you?" Samon scolded sharply, and the momentum of his whole body pressed against them again.

"But, but I can't convince the public, and I ask Her Royal Highness to think about it. Old Horn stood in front of them once again.

"Hmph!" Queen Samon glanced at everyone in the military headquarters and the sacrificial church with a long expression, then turned around and disappeared above the main hall with a fluctuation. With Queen Samon gone, the rest of the people walked out of the hall in a huff, leaving only Richie and Old Horn.

"Thank you, Chief, for coming. Richie bowed respectfully to Old Horn, and all the priests behind him saluted as well.

"The old man is so selfless, Lord Bishop, it is better to come to the military headquarters as soon as possible to inform this kid of what he has done in Red, the situation on the front line is not optimistic now, Brett can't mess up now, you should know. Old Horn said, looking sympathetically at Taylor, who was in a comatose torture, shook his head, and left.

"Hurry up and bring Taylor back to the sacrificial church, he's in dire need of treatment right now. After Richie saw off the boss, he hurriedly asked Thorne and them to lift Taylor, leave the royal family and rush to the sacrificial church, and on the inner city walls, Queen Samon sneered and watched everyone leave.

"Come on, the continent will soon change. Queen Samon looked down at the fortress, muttered, and disappeared in place.
