Zach and the other knights were able to leave the battlefield as early as when the city gates were closed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info But because of greed, they didn't "take it when they see it". Therefore, when the people around them began to loot unscrupulously, these lucky guys participated in it. Unexpectedly, after the war horse was tired and out of strength, he was soon arrested in the subsequent anti-bandit operation.

Now that he has been reduced to a prisoner, Zach is no longer as majestic as he used to be, he doesn't have much regret now, and all he thinks about is how to raise the ransom - Zack has the status of a "knight", even if the nobleman who canonized him has long died on the battlefield, but the identity is real. In this era, knights can be ransomed for ransom after being captured, so this self-proclaimed knight did not forget to stare at the civilians around him with a cold gaze after being hit in the face by rotten eggs, as if to remember these people who insulted him.

Zach was tall and stood out from the crowd, and this gaze did frighten many people, but before he could stare at him a few times, the knights of Evta, who rode on their horses, whipped him on the head.

"Smack!"

In the loud voice, a blood mark suddenly appeared on Zack's face, and the knight next to him pointed at Zack and scolded: "Look at what! Underdrawn, huh? ”

The scorching pain made Zach dare not look up for a moment, he knew that there was no point in going crazy now, so he could only swallow his anger, secretly cursing the knight in his heart, and vowing to educate him after redemption - but just as he was thinking about how to take revenge, his heart was inexplicably a little empty.

Because he remembered the seemingly harmless man and animal on the battlefield, but in the end he slaughtered two elders of two teams by himself.

The other party's amazing archery skills have exceeded his imagination, and when he thinks that such a terrifying guy can endure all kinds of humiliation by himself in order to hide his identity... Zach trembled uncontrollably.

Who the hell is he? The elite of the "Rosicrucifix"?

Zach still didn't know where Roddy was, but as the group of prisoners moved deeper into the city, the words of the surrounding residents drifted into their ears—

"Have you watched today's "Age of Cullen"? Big news! ”

"I can't read, I can't read, tell me quickly..."

Paper-based newspapers are now almost universal after the establishment of more than a dozen paper mills in Ivta, but after the fourth issue of Cullen Age began to enter the charging mode, and the number of people holding newspapers on the street was much rarer. The farmers in the villages were reluctant to pay for them, but the price of newspapers was still low for the inhabitants of the "Temple" city, and they did not mind shelling out a few copper coins in order to get the latest news from all over the kingdom. After all, spreading the latest news to the illiterate people around them can gain a lot of superiority and satisfaction.

"Much of this issue is all about the 'Temple'! I told you all about the fighting in the past few days, and even counted the casualties in all the villages..."

"The newspapers say it's all a 'pit viper cross' conspiracy! Their sneak attacks have devastated villages and towns throughout the Temple, and the Earl of Mirnor, who led them, was even more shameless..."

Roddy's newspaper took aim at "The Pit Viper's Cross" and "Count Mirno", and made no mention of the royal family, so the hatred of the people was concentrated on these two forces at once, and with the bloody figures and the descriptions of the scene, it is estimated that the common people in the kingdom could easily become disgusted with them.

"These damn infidels!"

"If it weren't for that powerful Templar guard who killed the two leaders of the enemy, the entire city would have been doomed!"

Hearing someone following him, Zach turned his head slightly, he knew that the "powerful temple guard" in the other party's mouth was "Raphael"... So, it turns out that the other party is an undercover agent of the "Rosace Cross"?

The guy who could dictate the newspaper scoffed, "What a temple guard!" You're all wrong... You know what? The leaders of the two 'Viper Cross', one is Cardinal Claude and the other is Elder Dean, both of whom are too powerful to be able to do it! With the wave of a hand, you can wipe out an entire fleet of Temple guards! And the archer who killed them - you can't think of who! ”

"Who?"

"The newspaper says who he is?"

This suspense immediately attracted the people around, along with Zach and the captured knights around them, they all turned their heads, and the pace of the whole team even slowed down.

"It's Evta's Prime Minister, Lord Roddy!"

"Huh?!"

"How is that possible!?"

The crowd was in an uproar, but after that they fell silent. The name "Roddy" had actually reached their ears very early, but it was far away from Ivotah, and the rumors about him had not been adapted into any story by the bard, so no one thought of this "cabinet prime minister" with strong archery skills for a while. However, this time "The Age of Cullen" directly admits that it was Roddy who killed Dean and Claude, and after carefully thinking about the old news in the past, people acquiesced to this fact...

"Lord Roddy led the team to kill hundreds of orcs in the first place, right?"

"Yes, didn't he go to the Tasman Kingdom to kill Augustine the Great? The powerful undead monarchs were all killed by him, what can Dean and Claude be? ”

"The God of Light is above... It turns out that the Prime Minister is so powerful! ”

Because Zach was being pushed forward by the flow of people, this conversation was quickly inaudible, but at this moment, like all the knights around him, his mouth grew in horror - next to him, a guy who had laughed at Roddy before stammered, "He, he, is he really the Prime Minister of Evta?" I don't think it looks like it..."

Zach kept his mouth shut, and he really didn't want to say anything now: it was precisely because everyone didn't see the flaw that he thought the prime minister was terrible!

Suddenly, a sense of uneasiness welled up in his heart - he turned his head to look around at the cavalry with the Efuta mark painted on his armor, he swallowed, and involuntarily thought of a question: Could Roddy be very vindictive? And then list them all as guys who need "special treatment"?

No, probably not, the "Temple" is the main place where the "Rosicrucius" preaches its teachings, Zach knows that this sect is very particular about "charity", and that "the God of Light will forgive all sins", and as a knight, he will not be severely sentenced by them...

This is the deep-rooted class mentality: if the commoners break the law, they must be severely punished according to the laws set by the lord. When knights and nobles broke the law, there was another set of rules to deal with. Just because they are the "privileged class" and "ruling class", in most of the battles in the Karen Kingdom, the knights and even the knights' servants are captured alive, because they are all sources of money that can be exchanged for large ransoms, and no one will refuse.

With this in mind, the more than 300 captured guys came to the square of the temple. Standing on the temporary wooden platform at this moment is the powerful knight Wellington. Because he participated in the front-line battle against bandits, there were still blood stains on his armor at the moment, and the pervasive murderous aura silenced the knights of the "Holy Sect Army" present. Most of them lowered their heads, but more of them were curious about why they were here, and they didn't understand why they had built a wooden platform here.

Wellington stood there like a sculpture and did not speak, and the whole scene was so depressing that even the civilians who were watching dared to whisper. It was not long before Cardinal Rubens arrived from the inner city with a troop of men, dressed in red robes holding a parable, and read out the decision of the Pope and the College of Cardinals, to the effect that:

The Rosicrucian was grateful that the fighting force was mainly composed of Ivta's army, and voluntarily relinquished the right to dispose of all prisoners of war, with Wellington, the current leader of Evta's forces, adjudicating the guilt of all prisoners of war.

As soon as these words came out, the whole crowd of onlookers "buzzed" to discuss - this is in the "Temple" city! Why is it suddenly up to the people of Evta to decide?

However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a strong political signal, and this example means that the "temple" will gradually be on par with Ivota in the future, and who knows if in a few years, it will be the law of Ivota that will be implemented here?

Wellington is a military man, and he is very neat. He stepped forward to take the parable, turned around, and said loudly: "Rob, rape, kill civilians, burn down villages, according to the law of Evta, kill!" ”

As soon as the word "kill" came out, the square where the original "buzzing" discussion was instantly quiet, and the heavily armed Ivota knights around them stepped forward, pulling the dazed-faced "Holy Cult Army" knights onto the wooden platform one by one, their hands falling with knives, and their heads rolling...

"You—you can't do that!"

Looking at the blood spurting out three or five meters from the neck cavity, the bandits below suddenly panicked, wailing and wanting to escape, but where could they run away with their hands bound? After being knocked down with a weapon by the guards next to him, he was dragged onto the stage one by one, and continued to kill in the dark.

Zach trembled and couldn't figure out why Evetta did this, but Wellington didn't bother to think about what this group of guys thought, and a row of thirty people beheaded all of them.

This is a real river of blood, the smell of blood on the wooden platform made the onlookers pale, many people vomited on the spot, but as these people were killed, the applause gradually spread, until finally the heads were piled up into a mountain, and the shouts have been resounded...

"Well done!"

"Long live Ivta! These damn bunches! ”

"Good kill!"

These more than 300 heads were not only a demonstration of the "Pit Viper Cross" and the Count of Mirno, but also a prelude to a great change for Rubens, who saw it more deeply.

He quietly looked at the corpses that were carried away and the heads piled up, but suddenly laughed: "I have been bound by the doctrine for so many years and dare not offend the nobles, I didn't expect... It's so easy to break the game. (To be continued.) )
