Chapter 113: Do you remember the outstanding dragon king who added nine chasing sixteen
In hindsight, Alonsos. Fao's vision is really unique, and the conversion success rate of the first generation of paladins has actually reached 100%.
Carlos completed the baptism ceremony for the eight Grand Knight Captains of the Alterac Royal Knights, and the success rate was less than half, and only three of them survived the trial of the heart and won the favor of the Holy Light.
The five losers all wept bitterly, immersed in grief and couldn't help themselves.
And the three staunch ones, who had withstood the torture of their hearts, all stood silently aside, waiting for their king's words.
"I know you have a lot of doubts, a lot of confusion. But it is too weak to explain it in words, so I choose to let you feel the truth. Carlos glanced at the eight people present and said slowly.
"Your Majesty, please make it clear." Lerien Jackson looked directly at his king, and the new paladins who had been tortured by the heart had disdained to speak in a roundabout way.
"Watch your attitude, Lord Lelian Jackson, and in front of you is the King whom you have sworn allegiance." Henry Shet was dissatisfied with the attitude of his colleague and directly reprimanded him.
And Shang Gewen was silent.
"It's complicated and chaotic right now, and the calm in Alterac City is just a balancing point of multi-faceted struggle. Any action can break this peace, so I need your true allegiance, not lip service. Carlos's words were slow and soft.
Slowly, several of the other Grand Knights also recovered from their grief.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I lost my temper, it doesn't taste good." The chief knight who failed to pass the test of the heart said shyly while tidying up his appearance.
"The courage to be baptized in the light is in itself a matter of pride. I've seen too many despicable villains trying to get away with it, and their ugly and twisted appearances are condemned by their hearts. You should not be ashamed, but proud. Carlos comforted the crowd.
"It's really a rare experience, I've been addicted to power for so long that I almost forgot my original intention. There are a thousand excuses, thousands of reasons, but I can't lie to myself, my heart hurts. As he spoke, an old knight with a still gray beard showed signs of losing control of his emotions.
"It's important to keep your emotions in check and listen carefully to what I'm going to say." Carlos drew the attention of everyone present to himself and continued to speak.
"I know you've heard some rumors, and wonder why I'm here at this time. However, none of this matters. Important, what do we do next. The reason why you are baptized by the Light is to let you understand that the power of a paladin comes from a firm faith. Once the faith is broken, the Light will no longer favor its users. And lies are highly poisonous to paladins, lying will shake their hearts, and hypocritical statements will weaken the paladin's power. I don't know if you agree with my remarks? ”
After Carlos finished speaking, Rillian Jackson, Shange Wenjie, and Henry Schet nodded in agreement, and the remaining five thought about it for a while, and also agreed with the king's remarks.
"Then, I hereby swear that all my actions are for the sake of Alterac, and all my actions are for the future of the kingdom, and that the king of Alterac will not die from my murder!"
After saying that, Carlos stood up, and the wings of holy light spread out from behind, and the majestic power of holy light filled the room, which resonated with the three newly promoted paladins, and the room was full of glory for a while.
"With such pure light, you are destined to be a great king, and Shang Gewenjie looks forward to your will."
"Lelian Jackson listens to His Holiness."
"Henry Shet obeys the king's commands"
"Your will!" X5
"Since you believe what I say, then return to the outside of the city at once and purge the Knights. I need your strength. ”
Carlos gave his first order as Grand Master of the Knights of the Alterac Crown.
"Your will."
After receiving the order, the eight grand knights quickly left.
"Ahem, ahem, ......"
After a brief cough, the wings of light behind Carlos turned into ten thousand pieces of jade and disappeared into the void.
"Your Majesty, do you need to find a doctor to treat you?" Todd asked.
"Todd, it's better to call me young master." Carlos took a few deep breaths, calmed his breath, and made a request to his butler.
"Yes Your Majesty, Yes Your Majesty, no problem Your Majesty." The housekeeper is as good as a stream.
"Whatever you want, you've come this far, and you can't go back." Carlos sighed.
"Your Majesty, do you need to find a doctor to treat you?" Todd asked again.
"It's just that I'm too tired, and the paladin doesn't get sick that easily, so there's no need to make a fuss." Carlos waved his hand, and Todd left the room understandingly, leaving room for His Majesty to be alone.
"Don't deceive gods and ghosts, what holy light is the power of idealism, and sure enough, the words in the novel can't be believed. It hurts me to death. Carlos inhaled the cold air, touched his heart with one hand, and rubbed his head with the other.
And inside the palace, Alex deals with a mountain of government affairs.
"Your Excellency the Grand Duke, those dead remnants are really unstable, and now rumors about His Majesty Carlos's bad things have spread." The duke sent an eyeliner into the king's faction to secretly report to the regent Grand Duke.
"Don't bother, just record the list, you be careful to lurk, don't expose it for the time being." Alex replied.
"Yes, Lord Duke, I see."
After the undercover agent left, Alex called the former captain of the Kingdom Guard, now the Minister of War, Asland.
"How's the military reorganization of Alterac City done?" Alex asked.
"It's not going well, the army that confirms obedience to His Majesty is about three thousand, and there are still two thousand people whose attitude is unknown. In extraordinary times, without the orders of Your Majesty and the Grand Duke, I will not dare to act rashly. The Minister of War replied.
"Just monitor it closely, don't worry if you don't need it." Alex gives instructions for action.
"Also, the Knights of the Royal Order......" Aslander nodded to show that he understood, and then asked a new question.
"Ignore it, just leave the matter of the Royal Order to His Majesty." Alex responded.
"In addition, guard the gates of the city, and you are not allowed to enter or leave." Alex added.
"The eight great knights have just left the city...... "The Minister of War, Asland, said with some hesitation.
“…… Got it. ”
After a moment of contemplation, Alex gave three ambiguous words.
"If I have no other orders, I will go down first."
"Go ahead."
After that, Alex spent all of his time dealing with government affairs and receiving aristocratic officials.
"Carlos, do you know how much you've annoyed me?"
Alex, who was exhausted, heard the roll call of the guards outside the door, rubbed his temples, and cheered up to continue to deal with official business, who made the current king of the Alterac Kingdom his own son.
"Your Excellency the Grand Duke, there are many people behind your backs obstructing His Majesty's order to enter a state of all-out war in Alterac."
The official in charge of the war mobilization order brought the latest news.
"A bunch of guys who can't see the form, I see. Go down, get ready, I'll take care of it. Alex replied.
"Lu Sen, let the wild goose come here."
"Yes, sir."
When Alex received another nobleman and discussed something inconsequential, Lucson sent him away, closed the door and gave his master a special look.
"I want the incriminating evidence of these people, all the incriminating evidence that has nothing to do with treason, before dawn tomorrow." Alex casually tossed a ball of paper behind him and went back to work.
As Lucerne prepares dinner for Alex, the Grand Duke of the Regent finally gets up from his chair and stretches.
Glancing at the open space behind the chair, Alex breathed a sigh of relief.
