Chapter 54: Why
Robin looked at Matilda in disbelief, the little girl was getting too fast.
Freely?
Sure enough, she's waiting to get rid of Olivia's control, isn't she?
If the army of the Yuyan Leader enters Bright Moon City, if Salom can successfully kill His Majesty the King......
"But how do you know that Salom won't turn you into a new puppet through the army?" Robin asked with a frown.
Meanwhile, the battle between Carol and Kaye becomes intense.
"That's because ......," Mattida shook her head and bit her tender lip as she listened to the fighting at the doorway, "she's the same as us." ”
"That's just because you're in the same status now." Robin shot back coldly, "Once she becomes king, takes control of the temple, and gains control, then she will be not much different from the current Olivia.
You need to know that. “
"No, Salom won't."
This is the voice of Duke Aiden.
"I believe her." Aiden smiled.
Robin looked sideways at the young duke suspiciously.
For some reason, the atmosphere in the entire conference room changed.
And the grand dukes who were infighting before, and the grand dukes who were suspicious of each other and could not be unified, became trusting after experiencing the death of Aojia just now, and when the army led by Yuyan approached the city.
Yes, trust.
Robin read it in their eyes.
They trust Shalom.
It is very different from the attitude towards Olja.
And all this change is clearly something that has just happened, not something that has been agreed upon in advance.
Otherwise, they could completely get rid of Aojia, and the four Grand Dukes jointly sent troops to take Haoyue City, and after supporting Salom, they would then force Aojia to submit.
So something terrible must have happened just now that caused a change in the relationship between the Grand Dukes.
Gone are the things that the king used to check and balance them, and to make them suspicious and divided.
It's just that Robin doesn't understand what it is yet.
Robin took a step back, his body trembling slightly.
"So, you're supporting her?" He shook his head in disbelief, his breathing scrambled.
In his line of sight, the body of the Lone Moon Knight at the door moved significantly.
She looked back and looked at Robin.
Very good......
Robin suddenly felt a little relieved, at least Olga's squire, one of the Four Horsemen of the Kingdom, had not yet sided with Salom.
"Lorel!" He cried out, "If you want to do something for the dead Grand Duke of Olga, and if you want to do something for the kingdom, then I beg you, go and take Shalom back." Only by capturing her alive can you withdraw from the army! ”
Rorel nodded with a gloomy face, and was about to walk out the door.
"Knight!" Duke Gwen stopped her.
"Duke Gwynn." Lorel turned around and looked at the old Duke of Glory in a daze.
Maybe when she was young, she had the strength of no less than the Four Knights.
But now the face of the Grand Duke of Glory is full of wrinkles, and his body is not as good as before.
"Shalom does not want and will not be the new king." Duke Gwen said categorically.
"Huh?!" A cold glint flashed in Rorel's gloomy eyes, and he snorted coldly, "Why do you say that?" ”
This was Robin's first reaction.
He laughed sarcastically, "Ha, didn't you hear the nine long tones of the warning just now? The army of the Yuyan Leader has already arrived in the city, Lord Gwen, you actually said......"
"Yes, you heard it right." Gwen raised her hand and interrupted him, "You're right, Lord the Chosen. From the moment Shalom decided to send troops, from the moment he stepped out of this gate, he was doomed to perdition.
Victorious or not, she could not become a king. “
"Unless we all die here. Otherwise, the matter of Salom's murder of the king and the seizure of power would not have been so easily erased. People don't embrace a regrelayer. ”
"Then why are you ......?"
At this, Robin suddenly closed his mouth.
It dawned on him that Salom's true purpose was ......
So her conversation with Gwen was a deal?
Is Shalom ready to sacrifice herself to kill Olivia and then make Gwen the new king?
People don't embrace kingkillers.
But on the other hand, will people support the Grand Duke who has eliminated the murderer?
Just like the people who embraced Olivia, who avenged her king sixteen years ago?
The new king, seventy years old, had no children......
I see.
If Salom did kill Olivia, but was defeated by Duke Gwynn, then Duke Gwynn would be the new king.
One sacrificed himself in exchange for all the interests of the Grand Duke and preserved the Yuyan Collar ......
No, if Gwen becomes the new king, she will inevitably be kind to the Yuyan Leader and her descendants when she thinks of the sacrifices she made.
Gwen herself has no children, and once Gwen dies, there is a great chance that Shalom's child will become the successor of the new king.
No wonder......
Robin finally figured out the key.
Mattida and Aiden reached this delicate agreement in an instant, in addition to wanting to get rid of the control of King Olivia, but also thinking that they have the hope of inheriting the throne in the future, right?
After all, Duke Gwynn is old, and he may not live long.
"I don't think you'd better know." Duke Gwen pursed his lips, "Lord the Chosen One, I advise you to sit down and wait for the results. ”
"As for you-"
Duke Gwen looked at the Knight of the Lonely Moon with his eyes slightly open.
"Olga is dead. You should now make up your own mind. It's time to think about your future, Lorel. ”
This is probably a naked threat, or an inducement.
Because the master is dead, he can now go to someone else......
"Lorel!" Robin nervously called her name, "If you still have the loyalty of a knight, and remember Olga's kindness to you, please ......"
He didn't go on, and Robin himself felt a little ridiculous when he said something like this.
In the face of absolute interests, what can the loyalty of a knight count?
But that was probably the only thing he could get his hands on.
If the era is still as he knows the history, as described in the legends of the knights, then there is still a chance.
"I understand, Lord Robin."
Rorel nodded solemnly and stepped out of the doorway.
The figure of the Lone Moon Knight vanished.
No one stood in the way.
No one can stop him.
Kaye and Carol's battle continues.
No one spoke except for the sound of their fighting.
Robin sat down in his chair in a daze, observing the expressions of the other Grand Dukes.
Mattida climbed into her chair and folded her hands to her chest.
Duke Aiden put his hands behind his head and leaned back in his chair.
Duke Gwen gripped his silver cane and lowered his chin.
Are they just like themselves, thinking about what Lorrell said when he left?
Robin's heart jumped wildly, unsure of the position of the Lone Moon Knight Rorel.
His brow furrowed tightly, his hands clenched into fists.
Isn't it too hasty to put all your hopes in Lorel?
He took a deep breath and finally made up his mind inside.
You can't sit still.
Gotta act.
