Chapter 20: Change
On the white sand not far from the coast, Rolf lay unconscious and motionless, Evan raised his sword and was about to plunge into his body.
The crowd of onlookers around them was still in shock and did not come back to their senses, in their living era, they had not heard of a civilian, who could kill a high lord with his bare hands, this kind of thing is unimaginable in today's hierarchy, although they worship heroes, but they will not be stupid enough to challenge the lord and win under completely unequal conditions.
"Stopped! Youngster! Lay down your weapon if you dare to pierce this sword! I, Ramqvist, swear to the gods that you will die a terrible death. Perhaps hearing Linda's exclamation, Ramqvist changed his usual mentality of watching jokes from onlookers, and issued threatening words to Evan like a king on high.
Hearing Ramqvist's arrogant tone, Evan didn't even turn his head, but the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, as if he didn't hear it, and stabbed his sword into the body of the enemy in front of him without hesitation.
"Nope!
No! ”
With the piercing of the long sword, two women's sharp exclamations came one after another, and Evan heard the voices of Rolf's wife Ainar and his daughter Linda, but as if he didn't hear it, he twisted the long sword inserted into Rolf's body hard, so that his internal organs could be destroyed, not to mention the gods, even the gods could not save him.
"How dare you defy my words? Come! Kill him for me! Ramqvist saw that Evan did not stop at all because of his words, feeling despised, and at the same time embarrassed in front of his wife and her people who were about to pass through the door, and with a burst of anger in his heart, he ordered the two dozen or so guards he had brought with him.
But! As soon as his words fell, he looked up at Evan who was standing alone on the field, only to see the other party's calm face, and there was a joke in his eyes, Ramqvist suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, and before he could seriously feel where this feeling came from.
I saw that as soon as his guards rushed out of the city, they let out a miserable scream, and they were surrounded by inexplicable enemies one by one, and the next time was simply a massacre.
Seeing the sudden change in front of him, his fat body trembled uncontrollably, and his body was completely hollowed out after years of pampering, and his country was not fought by himself, but taken over from his father, and he only executed his brothers after the victory.
But his father left him a large population and a vast area, plus he has been hateful since he was a child, and occasionally kills one or two people, which brings constant oppression and fear to everyone, which also makes everyone afraid of him, so he can live for so many years.
But everything in front of him was something he never dreamed of, looking at the twenty or so guards he had brought, all of them dead in front of him within a few minutes, and he couldn't help but feel nervous and scared when he looked at the bloodstained enemies around him, looking at himself like fat.
Just as he looked around blankly, trying to find a life-saving straw, a slender figure appeared in front of him, and then he felt a tear in his chest, and the cold wind kept burrowing into his body, and there seemed to be the sound of water hitting the ground on the ground.
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at the figure, and saw that standing in front of him was a girl who he had been thinking about and would soon become his wife, and at this moment the girl looked at the man in front of her with hatred and disgust.
Ramqvist slowly lowered his head and looked into his chest, only to see a strange triangular weapon, inserted in his chest, from which the cold wind entered his body, and at the tail of this small weapon, the blood of his body poured like flowing water to the ground.
He felt like his brain was a little out of the way? The girl who thinks about herself for a long time, why would she hurt herself ruthlessly at this time? She should have stabbed his father's killer with a weapon.
But before he could figure it out, a sharp pain came, and his huge body slowly softened, and he fell backwards, and when he swallowed his last breath, he hadn't figured out why the girl he loved wanted to kill him?
"Ahh
Just when the tribesmen were stunned by this successive events, an even more piercing scream came, and the crowd at this time had forgotten their surprise, and everyone looked in the direction where the scream took place, only to see Rolf's butler Knut, holding a spear in one hand, and his body doing throwing motions, standing still like a sculpture, with a short axe stuck in his chest.
At this time, Knut's eyes were wide with anger, his eyes bulged out, and the expression on his face remained surprised, his body remained motionless, and then slowly fell to the side.
The crowd's eyes became glazed, and Evan walked up to Knut with a calm face, pulled out his axe and plunged it into his waist.
He came to the field and walked towards the crowd that suddenly appeared covered in blood, and the eyes of the crowd also moved with his movements, only to see him smile happily, and hugged the more than thirty people in front of him, these people were his brothers, and the rest were the clansmen who had gone out to sea with him to plunder.
They really came for him Evan and they didn't disappoint him, and he's glad he made the right choice.
"Now I announce! Evan becomes the new earl! ”
Before everyone could come back to their senses, a hoarse but neutral voice appeared.
As this voice appeared, the crowd of onlookers automatically divided into a passage, and the clansmen on both sides of the passage kept bowing to the old figure and greeting, "Big Mogu!" Big Moguu! ”
Seeing the sudden change, Evan's body trembled slightly after seeing the figure, and the smile on his face couldn't help but freeze, his eyes were completely attracted by the person who came behind the old figure.
Evan's mind was full of joy at this time, he was like a child, he was just like that year, he ran up, rushed to the front of the figure, hugged the delicate and slender figure in front of him with all his strength, picked her up and kept spinning and laughing loudly.
Behind Moguwu is her! It was Nala, who had saved him countless times and raised him! His adoptive mother Nala, how not to make Evan excited, how not to make Evan happy, at this moment he feels that he is the happiest person in the world, he keeps spinning, keeps laughing, and tears unconsciously condense in his eyes and crawl all over his cheeks with his smile.
The big Mogue, still with his black robe deepened, and a wooden staff in his hand, limped towards the center of the field, and he did not look back at Evan, who was like a child because of excitement and excitement at the moment.
His old and crippled body seemed to contain infinite strength, and he walked forward step by step with firm steps, listening to the heartfelt honorific titles of countless people around him.
"Now I declare on behalf of the will of the gods Odin that Evan will be the new leader! He will lead everyone to a happy new life, and no one as his people will be allowed to disobey Evan's commands, and if they do, they will be punished by the gods! As his powerful words rang out again, there was a brief silence in the room.
"Count Evan!
Earl Evan! ”
After a brief moment of silence, the crowd fell to their knees, shouted to the new leader, and bowed their heads in convincing.
Evan was taken aback by everyone's sudden movements, looked at everyone with a puzzled expression, and then fixed his eyes on the veiled Nala's face, he saw his adoptive mother nodding at him as before, and winked at him mischievously, and a huge surprise couldn't help but spread in his heart.
He strongly restrained the excitement and excitement in his heart, his face was as calm as possible, and slowly came to the side of Big Mogueu, kneeling on one knee.
At this time, a clansman had already picked up the long sword that Rolf had dropped, and respectfully handed it into the hands of the big Mogu, the blood on it had coagulated, and Moguwu looked at the young man in front of him with his one eye, this child was something he watched grow up little by little, and his origin and secrets made him feel helpless when he was full of wisdom.
Moguu has been silently watching Evan's growth all these years, and as Evan gets older, Mogu's premonition becomes stronger and stronger, and he believes that this boy will lead the entire Viking people to create unparalleled glory.
