Chapter 47: Bad News

Jerry grabbed the impulsive thunder with one hand and shouted: "Come on, go and see, who dares to make trouble at the gate of the Imperial Capital Military Academy? Arrest them for me, teach them a lesson, and send them to the military headquarters, the black prison of the military department is just a few people to feed the lice, hmph, don't you want to die one by one? Or do you rely on your father to be a duke, how are you good? Don't give them a little color to see, they don't know how the royal law of the imperial capital is written." ”

Immediately, more than a dozen of Jerry's personal guard knights rushed out, and a large number of good things The academy students also ran over with great interest, they are all young people with strength above the level, they have just seen a high-level fight with very good sound and light effects, and now they are holding back their discomfort, and they are about to find someone to beat them up. And Kari was Ou and Coca, as well as Jerry who was standing next to them, but they didn't care about Jerry's scolding at all, and they didn't pay attention to Jerry's threats through the noise, and they stood by with a smile and watched the excitement.

Originally, there were four grand dukes among their relatives, and there were many imperial ministers among them, and they were confident that they still had enough strength to deal with Jerry and Ray's revenge, if it was an ordinary, powerless nobleman, even if his title was a prince, they would not dare to offend people like Ray and Jerry, who held military power in their hands.

The noise quickly subsided, and then, I saw Jerry's subordinate knights walking over with a few golden knights with iron faces, their armor was in tatters, covered in blood, and their faces were thin, and they looked like they hadn't rested well for days, nor had they eaten or drunk well. At the forefront was Ray's adjutant, Crete, who had been officially canonized as the deputy commander of the Dragon Legion. His original glittering gold armor was now all covered with fine cracks, and on his neck, there was a circle of bleeding bandages tied indiscriminately, and he had a beard on his face, and he looked like he was out of shape, and he had lost ten pounds.

Ray went limp, and stared blankly at Crete. Crete, on the other hand, didn't dare to look at Ray's expression at all, but quickly approached, and then slowly knelt on the ground. The knight's sword, which symbolized their honor, was gently placed in front of them by them, and then they kowtowed heavily and did not straighten up for a long time.

Ray's throat was dry for a while, and he asked with a wry smile: "Crete, how is the situation? Hmm? You went to Kari Village to pick up my mother, what happened? Is my mother okay? Is everyone in the village okay? Why did you come back in such a mess, um? There is no need at all? Haha, the war is over, where are you going to find someone to fight?"

Crete shuddered, and he answered Ray's question in a sad and extremely humiliated voice: "My lord, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, we didn't finish your task, we, when we arrived, things we've been... ”

In Crete's stammering voice, Ray finally understood what had happened.

Crete set out from the 'Divine City' with two hundred knights to pick up Ray's mother, just when Ray had just woken up from his serious injuries, and the news of the great victory of the 'Divine City' had already spread, and the ministers of the six countries had already rushed to the 'Divine City' with their people. Originally, the second batch of reinforcements sent by various countries to go to the Teke Canyon to reinforce the coalition forces and prepare to occupy the territory of the Vatican Empire suddenly received an order from them, asking them to reinforce the 'Divine City' in the realm of the criminals. At that time, they were rushing to the 'Divine City' day and night, but just after they passed through the Turk Gorge, suddenly a battle report came, and the 'Divine City' had won a great victory, and the entire army of criminals was annihilated.

The soldiers of the Six-Nation Alliance, who were in a daze, stopped in place. At that time, a group of private troops of the Van Empire had already been stationed in the Teke Gorge, and their soldiers were strictly forbidden to continue to march towards the north indiscriminately, and these coalition soldiers, who did not have any entertainment in the canyon, re-drove to the south on their own and stationed themselves in the province of Xili.

Because those officers were sensitively aware that after this attack by the criminals, the countries of the mainland were likely to reach a peace agreement, that is, they no longer needed to fight. At least in a short time, they will return to that peaceful alliance relationship, so these allied soldiers who have lost all their defensive strength in the province of Xili, under the supervision of the officers, do not have the courage to do anything wrong, even if they go to the Qinglou, they have paid enough for prostitution for the night.

However, on the margins, in what they thought would not be noticed by the Vatican authorities in the future, the legions of certain countries with particularly poor military discipline began to carry out covert raids. For example, in the mountainous area where Ray's hometown of Kari Village is located, he was rushed into it by two teams of Dak's private army, burning and looting along the way, frantically exploiting the beautiful furs of the mountains, valuable medicinal herbs, sand gold, crystal ore, and so on.

When the two groups of Dack's privates discovered that the goods they had plundered from the mountains were of great value in their big cities, their commander went mad and ordered two thousand people to sweep down the rugged path like locusts, drowning village by village in smoke and blood.

All the villagers were killed, not even the children, and the young girls, who were raped and nailed to the trees with sticks. They are trying to hide their identities and to keep the people of the Van Empire from knowing that they did it, so they must kill all the villagers. After all, if the Van Empire protests in the future, in order not to destroy the fragile peace agreement, the Dak Empire will never shield the two inconsequential team leaders.

Therefore, the village of Kari was also killed. Ray's mother, when she was boiling medicine on the stove, was chopped into pieces by several soldiers with a battle axe from behind, and her hot medicine spilled the entire stove... To the delight of the Dak commanders, they had scavenged thousands more gold from the village of Kari than from the other villages. Those were all gold coins that Ray had earned in exchange for his military exploits on the front line, and when those gold coins were divided equally among the villagers by Lei's mother and the village chief's uncle, they were now all looted by the Daks.

It was because of the charm of those gold coins that the Daks guessed that there would be a lot of valuable things in the village, so they stayed in Kari Village for a while. And this period of stay was enough for the anxious Cretan to rush into the village. Along the way, they found that villages had been destroyed, and countless villagers had been killed, especially after the fierce hunters had been killed, and they knew that a large number of regular troops had arrived.

And, obviously, only the people of the Six-Nation Alliance would do this, and the soldiers of the Vantus Empire themselves would never harm the people of their own country.

Crete they almost went mad in a hurry, and they rode madly all the way to the village of Kari, and after rushing into the entrance of the village, they found what Ray said, close to the home at the entrance of the village. When they rushed in, the blood of Lei's mother's corpse had not yet coagulated, and a trace of water vapor was emitted in the air. And the hot liquid is still warm to the touch. Cretan they hurriedly rushed out of the hut and searched everywhere.

On the trail behind the village, they saw the two teams of Dark's private army. I saw the soldiers carrying bulging packages one by one, carrying smoked poultry and shouting excitedly. Crete gave the order to kill these damned Daks, or he would have no way to give an account to Ray.

He led two hundred knights with an average level of around the Silver First Order, and rushed towards the Daks of those two teams. The Darkers, who had been exhausted by days of looting, *, and hurrying, could not resist these mad Vat knights, and one by one they fell under their swords, and their corpses were paved down the mountain road, directly to their main camp two hundred miles away.

The officers of the two regiments, both of whom had their own mounts, fled back to their camp with a large number of valuable mountain goods, and sought the protection of their commanders.

Crete, who had been chasing and killing for two days in a row, rushed to the Dak camp where tens of thousands of Dak soldiers were stationed with two hundred knights who were already scarred. The brutal Dark Commander refused Crete's request to hand over the murderer, and took matters into his own hands, with the cooperation of the two lieutenants, wounding Crete.

Two hundred men fought with a legion, and the result was predictable, wounded one after another on his own body, and after half of his companions fell, Crete cursed loudly and began to flee with the remaining subordinates. They ran for three days in the province of Xili, and finally escaped the hunt of the Darkers, and escaped the blockade of the Smart, who had a good relationship with the Darkers, and then escaped the Turk Canyon in embarrassment, and hurried towards the imperial capital overnight.

Cretan tracked on the ground, and whispered gloomily, "My lord, I have not completed your task. And I can't kill the damned murderers, I even killed a group of brothers... I, I still escaped in the final duel, I have really dishonored the name of the knight, you, kill me. ”

Several knights behind him pulled their swords out of their sheaths at the same time and stuck their heads on the ground. As long as Ray draws their swords and smashes them into two pieces, it means that they have completely lost their knighthood and the honor they regard as their lives under the command of Ray, their main general.

Ray listened to Crete's report blankly, and looked blankly at Crete who was kneeling on the ground. Jerry looked at Ray a little worriedly, a little worried that he would do something drastic. The surrounding academy students looked at Ray with flashing eyes, looking at this thunder who had recently been rumored to be so divine among them that a single sneeze could shock a sinner to death. They wanted to see what he would do with the knights of Crete who had demanded punishment after the loss of his mother.

Ray slowly pulled out Crete's long sword, and Crete shuddered and curled up together. As soon as Ray's hand slashed, he really lost everything. In the Van Empire, a knight who fails to complete the orders of the master or master, and a person who is expelled from the knight system by the master or master who breaks his knight's sword, will lose everything he has. His social position, his reputation, his position, his pride, his property, will be completely lost.

A thick hand slowly grabbed Crete's scabbard, and then, Crete's long sword was gently put into the scabbard by Lei. Immediately afterward, the knights who automatically pleaded guilty, their long swords were also put back by the thunder.

Ray looked at his Crete with tears on his face, and said in a low voice, "You guys... Really, I really don't know how to describe how I feel right now, my mother, she, was really killed by those Darkers?"

Cretan nodded gloomily, and fell to his knees again.

Ray said dumbfoundedly: "My father died very early, very early, what did he kill him by? Tiger or bear? I don't know, I forget, but since I was a child, my mother raised me, and the person I love most in my life is my mother." And in my mother's heart, I am also the only thing that matters to her, and I believe that if something happens to me, then my mother will be so sad that she will die... I still remember the first time I killed a giant wolf, I was seriously injured by the beast, and my mother was almost scared to death by me, I can't describe her appearance, but I can see that her soul was no longer in her body at that time, and it was not until I recovered that she slowly recovered. ”

Crete looked at Ray in bewilderment, and Ray suddenly roared loudly: "Crete, my mother is dead, what does this have to do with you? What fault do you have? But you bastard, you dare to take them to attack the camp of the Daks, who are you? Do you think you are all invincible masters like Lord Hart? You bastard, how many brothers have you killed... Damn you, they survived in the Breezy Plains, they survived in the province of Xili, they survived in the mortal conditions of the Turk Canyon... ”

"They are all men who are working hard with us, and it is easy to fight for a way out, you bastard, you actually took them to blindly attack the camp of tens of thousands of people on the other side... Crete, you're a bastard... You killed them, do you understand? The glory of the knight, the glory of the knight is so heavy? My mother is dead, and you can kill all the Daks with 200 men to avenge her? You fool, you killed hundreds of brothers for your own honor. ”

Ray's feet were lifted high and kicked hard, and with a 'poof', Crete was kicked five or six steps away, and he struggled in embarrassment, and frantically threw himself at Ray's feet, screaming: "My lord... I... ”

Ray roared, a series of crazy slaps were drawn, he scolded frantically, slurred: "Damn, you're an idiot, you idiot, Crete, I'll punish you to go back and flush the toilet of the entire legion, you give me a year's worth of toilets... ”

Crete's head swayed mechanically from side to side, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out indiscriminately. Jerry pounced, hugged Ray's hand, and yelled, "Ray, are you ****** crazy? Are you going to kill a knight who has been fighting with you, and are you going to kill a brother who is fighting side by side?"

Ray looked at Crete's inhuman face blankly, and suddenly hugged Crete's shoulders heavily, and actually cried like a child. Crete murmured, "My lord, my lord... He also had a sore nose and began to cry.

Jerry and the wounded knights also saved Ray's shoulders, shedding tears one by one.

The nearby academy knights looked at Ray blankly, at the general who had beaten the knights who led the team for the sake of the casualties of his subordinates. There was a strange glint in their eyes, admiration, envy, admiration, or something, in short, it was complicated, maybe they couldn't say that feeling, right?

A slippery voice sounded: "Ouch, isn't it just that my mother is dead? General Lei, this is also a benefit to you, your mother, I just listened to it, it's just an ordinary old woman of the countryside commoner, if she comes to the imperial capital, it will really lose the face of our imperial nobles, isn't it? Cousin Jerry? That kind of worthless civilian woman, forget it if she dies, General Lei himself, don't be too sad." ”

Crete violently broke free from Ray's embrace, and frantically yelled at Jerry who spoke: "******, you bastard, what are you talking about?" He habitually touched his waist, and was about to draw his sword to kill Jerry, who was standing not far away.

Jerry was startled, but he still yelled stiffly: "I said, what's the big deal if an old woman dies? ”

Ray slowly stood up, he looked gloomily at Jerry who didn't care, and whispered: "So, dear Lord Jerry, your title, your cousin told me, you have the title of a viscount, then, I, Ray Nawalt, Count of the Empire, formally ask you for a duel, and never die, because you have insulted my dead mother... This reason is absolutely enough ... Crete, go to the back, I'm going to kill him with my own hands. ”

Crete was picked up by Ray and placed behind him. Ray's murderous gaze was fixed on Jerry, and with a toe tuck, the spear was already in his hand.

Jerry's face turned pale, and Jerry had already shouted loudly: "I, Jerry, Earl of the Empire, have volunteered to be the notary of this duel. If Viscount Jerry refuses the challenge of a duel, then he is deemed to have voluntarily renounced all the rights of his nobles... ”

Jerry's face turned white like a ghost, and his whole body trembled...
