Chapter 373: It's not low-key
Seeing that everyone in the conference room chose to remain silent, Cardinal Baalhol, who presided over the meeting, also had a gloomy face and said coldly to Thomas Ishak.
"Thomas, the area south of the Donk River, west of Black Rock City, and north of the Longwall has never been assigned to you Florens, and what you consider to be a 'hunting area' is your own opinion, and is not recognized by the Church of Light and other allies. β
"And this time, we don't plan to make a simple deal with Black Rock City, but are going to build a new city stronghold there, where everyone can resist the darkness and distribute the benefits fairly. β
Thomas Ishak tried his best to restrain his emotions and said in a deep voice: "It is true that that area is not clearly divided into us Flensians, but since the war more than twenty years ago, we have formed a tacit understanding with each other, and the area of two hundred miles north of each defense zone belongs to each other's 'hunting areas'. β
"How many warriors' lives and how many materials we have invested over the years west of Black Rock City and south of the Donk River to establish a few permanent military strongholds, and contain a large number of dark believers who are trying to invade the light world, and now you want to take away the benefits of this place, which has violated the principle of 'reasonable distribution according to the proportion of giving' in the "Dulun Covenant", you must stop this ridiculous farce immediately. β
Thomas Ishak's fierce gaze swept across the room, many people avoided looking at him directly, but there were also those who dared to confront him, a red-clothed colonel standing behind the commander of the Engru Expeditionary Force said coldly.
"Stop talking about that bullshit war, that war has been over for decades, and you Florence have gained so much in that war that you shouldn't be your own, and it's time to redistribute it fairly. β
"You savage and cunning Engru people, it seems that a hundred years of war have not yet taught you how great it is, do you go home and ask your father and grandfather how they fled back to your cold island in embarrassment?"
"Let us know awesome?"
Colonel Engru, who was dressed in a bright red military uniform, said sarcastically: "When our king sat on the throne of Franc in Nasser, your Majesty Rousseff was still drinking wild vegetable soup in Aurelians! If it weren't for your hero Delea, you Florence would have perished, but unfortunately, she has been burned to death by us in the square of the city of Rendon, ........what qualifications do you have now?"
"Whew!"
A chair flew up in the air, roaring and smashing at the red-clothed soldier in Engru, and instantly arrived in front of him, looking at his appearance, there was no possibility of dodging.
"Smack!"
The chair exploded in the air, and the commander of the Engru Expeditionary Force, who had been sitting silently, said lightly: "Thomas, Gordon is right, the great Lord De Lea is dead, the Hundred Years War is over, and none of us wants to repeat another hundred years, so please restrain your emotions." β
Thomas Isak stared at the red eyes: "Poshak, I once swore that whoever dared to humiliate His Majesty Delea would be killed!"
The commander of the Engel Expeditionary Force, Poshak, smiled and said with a slight sneer: "Okay Thomas, we are all old acquaintances, if you really insist so much, why didn't you follow in the footsteps of His Excellency Delea back then?"
"You ......."
Thomas Ishak's entire face turned crimson, and emotions of atmosphere, shame, and remorse flashed across his face.
More than 20 years ago, he was a vigorous young man who witnessed the great war, and now he has the power in his hands, but he has lost the purity and integrity he had been.
"Bang bang bang!"
The deacon bishop of Dulun Cathedral, Balehall, slapped the table fiercely and rebuked loudly: "According to the "Dulun Covenant", all the grudges on the mainland are not allowed to be brought here to the northern wall, even if your king stabs each other, you must regard each other as close comrades-in-arms here, and jointly resist the darkness of the north, if anyone wants to withdraw from the alliance, they can leave with your legion now, even if there is only one Dulun city left, the light will tear through this darkness and illuminate the northern sky." β
The Covenant of Dulun is a joint covenant led by the Church of Light, whose ostensible purpose is to transmit the will of light beyond the northern walls and influence the poor lambs who have sunk under the will of darkness, but the real effect is to screw together hundreds of large and small principalities on the continent that have mutual hatred and seek to jointly seek the abundant transcendent resources of the dark world.
"For the light!"
"For the light!"
Everyone in the room had a doji on their chests, loudly expressing their devotion to the light, but they all saw the light of interest flickering in the eyes of others.
"For the light! for the expeditionary force!"
Colonel RΓΆze whispered a sentence behind his back, reminding an angry Thomas of his status as a regimental commander and the important responsibilities he had on his shoulders.
Thomas Ishak felt a deep sense of loneliness that had recurred over the past twenty years, when he had written to a friend seeking counseling, but he had died in Spia half a year earlier, and now there was no one to talk to him.
"I will report all this to His Majesty Rotherph, and we Flens will not succumb to any power or will. Thomas finally said something cruel and found himself a suitable step.
Cardinal Balehall is very satisfied, here in the northern wall, the appeal of the Church of Light is unmatched anywhere on the mainland, and no one dares to disobey the will of the light.
"The light will eventually dispel the darkness, and we have enough faithful believers and powerful divine beings that we will all be remembered in the annals of light......."
...........
...........
The two dog sleds stopped in the middle of the long wall, and Thomas, who was no longer young, stared blankly at the silver world outside the long wall, and the young Colonel Ruse stood quietly behind him.
"Why, why am I going backwards again, haven't I retreated enough after all these years........" Thomas Ishak muttered to himself after a long time.
"Legionnaire, you are stepping back for the benefit of Flens. β
Thomas Ishaq shook his head, "No, I was cowardly, I once heard His Majesty Delea say that a barefoot man will never be afraid of a man in shoes, because he has nothing, I have too much, and wealth and power have slowed down my bravery........"
"Not only me, but the whole of Flence also has too much, the number one military power in the mainland, hehehe! β
"Legionnaire, your fears have been fulfilled, we have already begun to be boycotted by others, will it be ........ in the future?"
"No!"
Thomas Ishak waved his arm vigorously and said firmly: "After the extreme cowardice, there is a violent outburst, no one can hit us Flensians, we Flensians are very romantic in peace, and we are braver than anyone else when war comes!"
.........
.........
"Whew!"
A crimson flame went straight through the mountain forest, igniting and incinerating all the trees within a few meters along the way, and sweeping out a narrow passage nearly a kilometer long.
"This ...... It's not too low-key........"
Charles looked at the fiery red longbow in his hand a little stupidly, then looked up at the straight arrow path in front of him, smashed it, smashed it, and said something insincere.
In his previous life, he saw some people driving Ferraris and bombing the streets, and they usually mumped similar sour words in their mouths, but if he started it himself, he probably could use the accelerator as a keyboard to step on and play a "neurotic song" without any problem.
After Her Majesty left, Charles calmly picked up the red, blue, and black longbows suspended in the air, and after testing them one by one, he couldn't help but sigh: "There are thousands of girls in the world, and they are all good-looking, hairy and hairless." β
The black longbow is called "Kiss of the Night", and using the innate spiritual power of the assassin system, it can condense invisible spiritual arrows, and it will not necessarily be noticed by the other party until it touches the target, just like a lover's kiss, which will make you sink and fall into the abyss unconsciously.
The green longbow shape is the most beautiful, and there are a few young leaves on the bow arm entwined by several vines, which is most suitable for driving with the green spiritual power of the hunter's talent, and will shoot a spiritual arrow full of vitality, and after touching the target, it will pass this vitality to him, so that he has a life that does not belong to him, and he may not know how to die until he dies.
As for the red "fire dragon roar", it is synonymous with showing off, after injecting the spiritual power of the warrior system, it will make a "roar" sound like a dragon's roar, and a fire dragon shoots out, which will incinerate everything along the way, killing people and setting fire to it very handy.
"You have to think of a suitable reason to use it openly, and you can't tell Olive that it was given by my female friend, right?"
Charles put the three longbows into his spiritual power void, still carrying the Moon Shadow Bow that had a spotted crack, beckoning the little tiger cat to return to the Blue Mountain Pass, the chase in the middle of the night has run hundreds of miles, if it is not a hunter, let alone go back, it is normal to get lost.
Because Charles had slipped out of the barracks, he had to rush back to the barracks at Blue Mountain Pass as soon as possible, or else they might cause some trouble if they found out that they weren't in the tent.
Charles had just been promoted to Demon Hunter, so he naturally wanted to test how much his skills had increased, and he immediately began to run wildly with all his might, and immediately felt that his agility and speed had changed qualitatively.
The "Rush" skill that the seventh-rank Revenant had comprehended was originally extremely fast, but now the speed has nearly doubled, and the agility talent awakened by the ninth-rank Wind Hunter has evolved and transformed, and it is full of illusory shadows between tossing and turning.
There was no road in the mountains and forests, and Charles carried a little tiger cat on his shoulder, which swept by like a wisp of wind, without alarming the insects, birds, ants, and beasts along the way, even if they left a faint trace, they disappeared without a trace after a while.
"I shouldn't be disgraced to the traverser now!"
In less than a year, Charles could not help but feel a little proud in his heart, his extraordinary strength at this time had surpassed that cheap daddy Boerman Chevalier, and also reached the standard of enough to support an aristocratic and wealthy family.
It can be said that with the current strength of Shire, even if he does not have the foundation of a marquis's domain, he can slowly fight for a wide enough world on his own, but it will take many more years.
An hour later, Charles returned to the outside of the Lorraine Legion camp, changed into a handsome military uniform customized according to his special requirements, and walked into the barracks in a grand manner, and walked in front of his tent.
"Stop, no one is allowed to ....... Legionnaire?...... When did you get out?"
Brut and Dewar squatted at the door of the tent with their weapons, one left and one right like door gods, and two hundred heavily armored soldiers were still faithfully guarding the outside of Charles's tent.
"I don't know if the Transcendent Hunter has hidden skills? I came out before dawn, but you didn't know it, what if the enemy hunter or assassin had mixed in?"
Charles shouted loudly in front of a group of dumbfounded heavily armored soldiers with his hands behind his back, "Dewar, Brut, have you two forgotten the investigation methods I taught you, why is there so much chaos in the barracks?
"Sir, we just met that mad ascetic yesterday when we arrived here, and I haven't had time to ........ it today," Brut defended with a grim face, as the commander of the guard battalion, he had the responsibility to protect Charles and spy on spies.
"Then why don't you go and find out?" Do you want to jump out and sing to you yourself?"
A group of heavily armored soldiers hurriedly stood up and prepared to carry out personnel screening in the barracks, they had received emergency training in the crash course, knowing that the barracks were still being sorted out at this time, and the soldiers and civilians were mixed, and it was the best time for the enemy's spies to infiltrate the barracks.
"Dewar, everyone worked hard last night, and each of them was rewarded with two louis's wine dollars. Just as everyone was about to leave as if they were about to be amnesty, Charles's words made their hearts warm.
"Yes, sir!"
The simple Dewar agreed, and Brut next to him pouted, this was his job in the past.
Dewar is now Charles' personal knight, in charge of a part of the pocket money, his temperament will make him give a lot of the reward money to everyone's hands, if it is Brut, it is difficult to say, unspoken rules are everywhere.
Charles returned to his tent and boiled a pot of tea himself, and had just taken a few sips when there was a commotion outside.
Outside the tent, Brut whispered, "Sir, we have caught a group of suspicious spies, but they insist on seeing you and telling you what they are...... The people of the Parliament. β
"Liberal Council?"
Charles thought for a moment and said outside, "Let them in, and call Byrne over separately!"
