Act 130 The Eruin Legations
Act 130 Eruin Envoys (2nd Shift)
"What are they doing here?" Brando thought to himself.
But the Eruin nobles had slowed down not far from Brando, and the other party seemed to be watching him. Brando actually knew the men, and the leader was a middle-aged man with a thin face and a somewhat lame face—as if he were a senior general of the Northern Legion by the name of Count Outin.
The next six men and two women should all be non-powerful nobles from the royal capital, and Brando can't remember the names of each of them, but he has an impression of these faces.
Most of these men were members of the royal party, or at least centrists, but there were some splits in the traditional kingdom faction before the split, which further confirmed that the other party had been sent into the Black Forest before the civil strife in Eruin.
But how did they hear about Lionheart?
Brando didn't know that during the Battle of the Breakout of Fort Riden, Sir Overwell of the Wolf had been following them all the time, and had learned all the secrets of Alberton the White Knight from beginning to end, so Eruin had actually sent people into the Gendenel area long before the artifact reacted.
However, when he was observing these people, Count Outin's eyes also fell on him. The general from the Phoenix Legion in the north of Eruin confirmed the identity of this young nobleman at first sight, and that kind of calm and elegant demeanor could not be pretended, not to mention that Antitina beside him was a noble daughter at a glance, and her every move carried that unique demure, and there was no doubt about her natural identity to be accompanied by such a young lady.
Count Outin also glanced at the young men who were resting in the woodland, and thought to himself that it must be the young nobleman's servant, but among them there were lizardmen, elves, and Eruin, and the composition was really complicated enough.
Then he turned his head and his gaze fell back on Brando: "Eruin? ”
Brando nodded, thinking to himself that these guys must not have come to recognize his fellow countryman.
Sure enough, before Outin could speak, a short and fat nobleman beside him had already spoken first: "You are the Eruin nobleman?" ”
"Isn't Your Excellency a nobleman of Eruin?" Brando heard that the other party's tone was not good, and asked with a raised eyebrow.
The short, stocky guy was stunned, and of course Brando recognized this guy as a well-known conservative named Roblen. Robron, who is now seventy or eighty years old, is well maintained, because the Cruz race lives far longer than humans, so now he looks like a middle-aged man, and although his beautiful curly hair has been dyed white, he is still meticulously combed.
The oversized and chubby Earl wore a silver earl's robe, and his hat ostentatiously wore three gold leaves representing the status of the earl—the average earl was adorned with three silver leaves, and these three gold leaves were obviously a special honor.
However, he was obviously stunned by Brando's words, and did not expect Brando to answer like this.
After a pause, he shouted angrily: "Whether I am the nobleman of Eruin has nothing to do with you, boy, I ask you, are you the guy who offended the Cruz Empire in the afternoon and caused trouble to the kingdom"
Brando's face sank, and he already knew what these guys were here for-
Xingshi asks for sin.
As for why Xingshi asked for the crime, he only had to think about what happened at the Centaur Hoof Market yesterday afternoon to guess that he would not be far from ten.
Brando couldn't help but shake his head, Eruin, Eruin, he looked at these officials of the kingdom, and couldn't help but be a little speechless for a moment.
"If you ask me if I've taught some arrogant fellow a lesson this afternoon, it's me," Brando replied, staring coldly at the other, "but as for who caused trouble for the kingdom, I don't know." ”
He looked at the fat man, his eyes became a little teasing, and the meaning in his eyes was self-evident.
"If you admit it," Roberon didn't care about Brando's eyes, but replied, "The envoys of the Cruz have informed us that if we don't deliver you to them within the deadline, they will threaten the kingdom with a war—boy, do it yourself."
"So you want to hand me over?" Brando looked at the men and asked a little amusedly, "Do you think this is possible?" ”
"It's an order." This time it was a middle-aged aristocratic lady who was dressed in the costume of a royal city official, but wearing the badge of a scholar.
Rantonilan's royal scholar, Brando immediately recognized the other party's identity.
"Orders?" Brando almost laughed: "Who's?" ”
"In the name of the kingdom." The woman said, "We are an envoy sent here by His Majesty, representing both His Majesty and the majesty of the kingdom, so I command you, the young nobleman, to lay down your arms at once and go with us. ”
"Otherwise?"
"Otherwise, your actions are suspected of drawing the kingdom into a war, and we have reason to declare that your actions are contrary to the common code of the Eruin nobles."
"That is to say, we can declare you expelled from Eruin, and your actions will have nothing to do with the kingdom from now on."
After hearing this, Brando, even the best cultivation couldn't help but take a deep breath. Fortunately, he had already seen the ugly faces of these guys in the game, otherwise he would definitely be to death.
He looked back at Count Outin, at this high-ranking general from the Northern Legion, who was also a supporter of the later die-hard Princess Regent, and asked, "As a soldier, does Lord Earl think so too?" ”
But Outin didn't answer, he only frowned slightly, first of all, he was dissatisfied with Roberen's words that robbed him earlier, and secondly, he didn't like the other party's imprudentness.
Although Cruz's envoys threatened him with war, as a soldier, he was not afraid of war, but now Eru had to stand on the same front with these people due to internal and external troubles.
Count Outin's silence disappointed Brando, who had expected the future reformer to at least support himself.
But Brando only now realizes that he was right to break away from Eruin's rotten aristocratic circle and start anew. The nobility of this kingdom is hopeless.
He finally suppressed his anger, then raised his head to look at the female bachelor, and smiled slightly: "That means Your Excellency wants to expel me from Eruin?" ”
"It's up to you." The last nobleman replied.
Brando didn't directly draw his sword and slash these bastards away, he immediately restrained himself and calmed down, looked at these guys and replied angrily:
"Well, then you can go and tell the people of Sùruz that they have been expelled from your kingdom, and perhaps they will accept it."
Several Eruin nobles were stunned.
They were supposed to give in to the threat to Brando, and it's no wonder that the Cruz would accept it, those guys obviously had to see it to count.
"You don't want to toast, you don't eat, you don't eat and drink," said Count Roberton angrily.
He raised his hand, ready to let the guards of the mission directly subdue the young man, the guards of the mission were all accompanying knights of the kingdom, the elite of the royal family of Corkova, and it must be no problem to subdue a small young nobleman.
He had observed in advance that Brando's subordinates were all young men, or aliens, and this kind of motley army would not be able to go there no matter how powerful it was.
On the other hand, although the Cruz people explicitly said that Brando had offended them, for the sake of saving their face, they certainly did not elaborate on Brando's glorious deeds, but were only vague about the clash that took place in the Centaur Hoofs Market in the afternoon.
This led to a miscalculation on the part of the Eruin envoys, who thought that Brando had some strength, but that was not it. Previously, the salute was just to preserve their strength as much as possible before the wolf disaster came, but Brando insisted on resisting, so it is no wonder that they did it.
Robron, Outing, and the maess were all general ideas, and in no way could the kingdom be drawn into a new war because of this.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Brando smile at him.
"Looks like you're planning to force you to comply?" He asked.
"Nature."
"Then it looks like the Cruz aren't telling you the truth." Brando laughed, "If you really knew the cause and effect of the whole thing, I'm afraid you would be more cautious about what you are doing now." ”
"Don't bluff here." Roberon snorted coldly.
"Bluffing?" Brando shrugged: "Well, the Cruz people definitely didn't tell you - first of all, I offended the only heir of the Grand Duke of the Imperial Empire, and made this noble daughter lose face in front of everyone. ”
Count Outin was stunned, he originally thought that Brando had a little conflict with the Cruz, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
The Lord Earl immediately felt troubled, and according to the temper of the Grand Duke, it was not certain that he would really start a war.
But Outin didn't expect that Brando hadn't finished speaking.
"And the Cruz people certainly didn't tell you—I offended the Frontier Knights of the Empire, and beat a whole squadron of them to the ground. ”
The noblewoman was about to say something, but when she heard this, her face changed--a person beat a squadron of the Knights of the Cruz Frontier? She looked at Brando and thought to herself that this guy was too bragging.
"The Cruz people didn't tell you either - I also offended the knight flower of the Empire, Count Karenz, who was known as a new generation of swordsmen ten years ago, I remember sending him flying with a spell, I don't know if he has recovered now," Brando said as he smiled, "I hope there are no scars on his face." ”
"I also offended the Imperial Forbidden Army Knights and disarmed an entire squadron of them."
"Oh yes, and their Royal Alchemist Guild, which almost killed one of their geniuses—a fifteen-year-old war alchemist."
The young man nodded, "Speaking of which, I seem to have offended someone—Veronica, the leader of the Blue Sky Legion, you should know this lady." I made ten moves with her, and finally threatened her with the daughter of Grand Duke Hanaba and forced her to retreat. ”
He turned his head and looked at Roberon and his party with a funny expression: "If the Cruz people sue you, do you still plan to forcibly take them away?" ”
Then he stopped and looked at the men.
"Also, you want me to apologize to the Cruz," he asked, "and may I ask you, which of the Cruzians I think would be better to apologize for the above incident?" ”
