Chapter 221: I Give You the Right to Surrender! (1st Update)
Christmas Eve, as scheduled.
The grand gathering took place in the largest church in London, filled with nobles and knights from all over the world.
When Li Hao brought Artoria to the church, it was already full of people.
Goffhanie, dressed up, walked over and said with a light smile, "Your Excellency Baron Strong." ”
"Countess Goffhanie."
Li Hao responded with a smile, but he was thinking about the other party's intentions in his heart.
He had been in this era for almost four years, during which time he had returned to modern times many times to read the materials and epics of ancient England, and he basically knew about the power of ancient England.
In ancient England, there were not many forces with extraordinary powers, and the two largest forces were the Holy See and Avalon, which are now in full swing.
However, compared to the Holy See, Avalon is more mysterious.
No one has ever been able to find out where Avalon really is, and no one knows what Avalon is really like. It is only known that Avalon has a terrible witch, a witch with extraordinary powers.
Even Li Hao doesn't know much about Avalon.
However, although he didn't know too much about one of the biggest transcendent forces in ancient England, Li Hao also knew that the other party was far from being as indisputable as in King Arthur's epic.
In London, and even in England, there are eyes and ears for witches everywhere.
It is not so much that the country is in the hands of the Holy See, or that King Uther is in control. Rather, they are in the hands of the Witches of Avalon, in the hands of the extraordinary power represented by Merlin.
As for the Earl of Gaffinie in front of him, he is one of the members of the Avalon Witches Society.
The kung fu of the two of them talking attracted many people to look sideways.
After all, whether it is the dignified and elegant Countess Goffhanie or the mysterious Baron Strand, they are all famous figures in London.
"It's Baron Strand."
"Didn't he go to Northern Xinjiang some time ago, when did he come back?"
"My God, this demon has returned."
Gwafanie smiled, "Fate has chosen a great and excellent king for this country, and if Baron Strands had come for the throne, he would have been doomed to disappointment." ”
Ge Fani said, her eyes narrowed slightly, and her gentle voice became a little colder: "Anyone who stands in the way of fate will be crushed into powder by fate!" ”
The faces of the people around him were full of astonishment, is this considered a threat?
Most of the nobles knew about Geffany's origins. It was precisely because they understood Gephine's origin that they were even more confused.
Is Avalon going to war with House Strand?
The nobles unconsciously looked at Li Hao, wanting to know how he would respond.
At the same time, many people's eyes flashed, showing excitement.
Whether it's the Avalon Witches or the Strand family, they're all untouchable behemoths.
If these two behemoths go to war, it won't be a bad thing for them. Especially for the nobles who have the strength to compete for the throne of the king, it is simply great news.
Li Hao still didn't understand what Ge Fani meant.
However, for Ge Fannie's threat, Li Hao sneered in his heart.
Although he didn't know the specific strength of the Avalon Witch Society, he could roughly guess the overall strength of the Avalon Witch Society from the cultivation of Gephany and Merlin, which was at most comparable to the supernatural realm.
Li Hao smiled and said: "That's really a coincidence, fate has given me the enlightenment of wisdom and let me know the existence of the king." As for Countess Gaffine's words, I think it makes perfect sense that anyone who stands in the way of fate will be crushed into powder by fate. ”
When he said this, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and said: "By the way, the benevolent Baron Strands will give the losers more choices, let them choose to stand and sacrifice their loyalty, or kneel on the ground and lick their master's shoes to show their submission!" ”
Li Hao's voice was deliberately raised to suppress the whispers in the church.
The constant reverberation of the threat in the church made everyone look at it in amazement.
Quiet.
For a moment, there was a dead silence in the church.
Everyone's hearts were slightly cold, and they looked at the Countess Gaffine, whose face was dark, and couldn't help but roar wildly in their hearts.
Crazy, really crazy.
Didn't he know the identity of Countess Gaffine, the senior deacon of the Witches of Avalon? Oh my God, is Baron Strand going to war with Avalon?
Everyone was stunned, nervous and panicked.
They really didn't expect that Baron Strand, who had always been low-key, would have such a domineering side, daring to openly declare war on the Witches of Avalon in front of the nobles of all England.
That's the Avalon Witches!
The nobles thought of the horror of the witches and the mysterious witchcraft, and most of them expressed their silence to Li Hao.
Although the Strand family is strong, they are only one person after all.
If this was just a private matter between Li Hao and Ge Fenni, they would not be so pessimistic. But Li Hao's words just now can no longer be regarded as a private matter between the two, but it is equivalent to publicly declaring war on the Avalon Witches.
"Okay, good, since Baron Strand's confidence is so confident, let's keep our eyes peeled and take a look." Gefani's face was gloomy as water, and she sneered.
She said, turning away without the slightest hesitation.
Li Hao watched Ge Fannie's departure, smiling silently.
Seeing that things had developed to this point, most of the others looked at each other with complicated expressions, and unconsciously moved away from Li Hao.
There was a lot of noise in the church, but there was no one around Li Hao.
Artoria followed behind Li Hao, and when she saw the strange-eyed nobles around her, she pouted dissatisfiedly: "A group of cowards." ”
Li Hao smiled and touched Artoria's little head, and said with a smile: "This is precisely their cleverness, because they know their own abilities and know what they can't touch." Only when you know yourself can you have fear and establish rules. ”
Artoria's eyes drooped slightly, and she pondered seriously for a few seconds, and said, "It seems to ........ I don't understand. ”
As she spoke, she looked at Li Hao mischievously and blinked her bright blue eyes.
Li Hao tapped a chestnut on her forehead funny, how could she not see that Artoria was deliberately selling cuteness and wanted to make him happy.
And while the two were fighting, Countess Gaffinie had already walked out of the church with an ugly face.
A black cat popped out of nowhere and jumped on her shoulder.
Griffinie whispered, "Strand may be a threat to us, so you should keep an eye on his movements." If necessary, emergency treatment can be made. ”
The black cat licked its paws and made a human voice: "This is the territory of the Holy See, and it will be very troublesome if you alarm the people of the Holy See." ”
Gefanie said coldly: "Hmph, the Holy See is now busy expanding on the mainland and in the east, and it doesn't have the heart to pay attention to this remote and small place. The cultists here are all ordinary people, so you don't have to worry about what they will see. ”
At this, Gefanie sneered, "And do they dare to tell the Holy See headquarters that they have a connection with witches?" ”
The black cat let out a low grin and jumped off Geffine's shoulder.
Although the overall strength of the Holy See is far superior to that of the Avalon Witches, their stall is too big. In this small part of England, the strength of the Holy See is far from being comparable to that of the Witches of Avalon, and even many of the middle powers possess superior powers to the Holy See.
It's just that to the extent of the Holy See, sometimes relying on its own prestige alone is enough to intimidate most of the extraordinary powers.
