Chapter 116: The Military Formation

Military formation

At nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, Lucerne, the capital of the Duchy of Lucerne, was already under martial law! The garrison of the capital marched into the city and took care of all the streets and neighborhoods to prevent any disturbances in the city!

The king of Lucerne and the main nobles who remained in the capital had already gathered in the harbor, waiting to welcome the Vantati guests who had disembarked from the big ship!

The aristocrats dressed up in their most formal and ornate dresses, and many ladies also wore their family's ancestral jewels as a sign of respect.

Those who possess the profession of knighthood, whether apprentices or formal knights, are all dressed in military uniforms, armed with sharp weapons, and standing on the shore of the harbor in full armor, forming a small military formation!

Most of the combat professionals of the entire Duchy of Lucerne are concentrated in the entire military formation, which represents the supreme force of the entire Duchy.

Originally, these people were scattered within the power of the Lucerne royal family and other great nobles. At this time, due to external pressure, the whole duchy was united, and the internal strife was temporarily eliminated, and all the forces were gathered together, and in one day all the professionals around the capital Lucerne were gathered.

The entire military array is composed of 120 people, of which more than half are professionals at the level of mid-level knight apprentices, and the number of high-level knights above the apprenticeship level has been greatly reduced, and there are only 13 official knights!

Most of these 13 official knights are the heads of high-ranking nobles of the Duchy of Lucerne, and each of them is a prince, with high power, ruling over the life and death of hundreds of millions of ordinary people!

At this time, these 13 knights stood in front of the military formation first, stood up straight with bated breath, looked ahead, and condensed into a powerful momentum with the military formation behind, pressing the other nobles to retreat frequently!

The strength of this team is undoubtedly convincing, the nobles stand behind the military formation, and they also feel very safe, in their minds, no matter how strong the strength of the wizard is, when they show goodwill and obedience, the wizard will never cross this powerful military formation and hurt the nobles, right?

It didn't take long for a group of people to come down from the big boat that had come to the shore, dressed in black robes, with the words "Area 57" outlined in silver thread on the right front of their chests, and the first one was the Governor of District 57 who had been sent to the Duchy of Lucerne, Jeromy Grul!

This group of visitors from Vantastie looked very low-key, and silently walked to the front of the dock army! After standing still, everyone did not say a word, except for Jeromy, who came to the front and opened his mouth to ask: "Excuse me, who is the king of Lucerne? I have here an edict from Vantasti, which I need to receive!"

The king of Lucerne came out in a row, bowed to Jeromy, and for the first time in his life, replied in a humble voice: "Hello dear wizard, I am the king of Lucerne, and it is an honor for you to be here in Lucerne, and it will be our eternal glory!

Jeromy lowered his head and coughed, and replied, "I'm not a wizard, and we didn't come with a wizard this time, but we brought a wizard's decree!"

"According to the decree, I, Jeromy Gruul, have been appointed as the Colonial Director of the Duchy of Lucerne, and have the highest authority over all the people and things in the Duchy of Lucerne!

Jeromy didn't notice that when he opened his mouth and said that there was no wizard to follow, the king and nobles of the Duchy of Lucerne immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and their respect for him immediately decreased!

And when Jeromy read out his own appointment papers, the scene suddenly fell silent, and the nobles and members of the royal family did not know how to answer for a while! If they accepted Jeromy's appointment, wouldn't it mean that there was another person in power above the king, and they would undoubtedly have a huge piece of the cake of those with vested interests!

King Lucerne was already a little angry at this time, and he didn't expect Jeromy to give him such a surprise! He turned around and signaled to the head of the Royal Knight Order who was standing at the head of the military array, and in an instant, the momentum of the entire military array, under the leadership of the Knight Leader, burst out and rushed straight towards Jeromy and the others!

On Jeromy's side, it seems that everything is breezy and uneventful, and they don't care about these so-called knights from the barren land at all!

Still, Jeromy could see the hostility of the other party.

Without waiting for Lucerne's men to react, Jeromy made a backhanded hello and called a member of the group behind him to him. Jeromile raised his face and assigned the next work to this person, and let the other party play!

The man who had followed Geromy all the way from Vantasti took a diagonal step to the front of the entire military formation, facing the formation of thirteen formal knights.

Without waiting for the other party to act excesses, a strong momentum burst out from his side, only to see this person step by step forward to the front of the military formation, and then from under his black robe, he pulled out an ordinary standard long sword!

Immediately after, he held the standard long sword and slashed out towards the entire military formation!

A huge air flow appeared in front of everyone's eyes, like a storm, directly blowing the military formation in front of him to the ground! Even the 13 official knights couldn't resist it!

The knightly army, which had been pinned on by the king of Lucerne and the nobles, was wiped out in an instant!
