Schilling galloped. In front of the horse's head, the people spread out like a tide, retreating, countless pairs of eyes, all focused on him.

At this moment, he really felt what it means to be in the spotlight and what it means to be high-spirited!

Last night, in Natasha's annex, he waited until two o'clock in the morning to finally get the news he wanted to hear the most.

Eugene captured!

The entire operation, from the discovery of the news to the arrangement of the operation, was all planned by him. With mental calculation or unintentional, it finally worked and was a great success.

After getting the news, Natasha and a group of nobles who had taken refuge in the Lanris family gathered in the room almost jumped. The nervousness and panic on everyone's face disappeared without a trace, and at that moment, they looked at him in awe!

Thinking of this, a reserved smile appeared on Schilling's face. Riding his horse into the square, he turned over and dismounted in front of the Hera Hotel, where the nobles gathered, and looked back at the carriage that followed behind him.

A row of carriages bearing the coats of arms of the various Loulian families stopped one after another. In the first carriage, it was Natasha who walked out. And Mrs. Joyce, who was supposed to be the leader of the local aristocracy, was only in second place.

Compared to the refreshed Natasha, the expression on Mrs. Joyce's face was a little darker. In the face of the greeting people, she pretended to be calm, and at the same time cast jealous eyes on Natasha. Occasionally, when I look at myself, there is a trace of unwillingness and stubbornness in my eyes.

In addition to this, more than that, it is forced to succumb to reality.

Schilling smiled and turned his head.

Last night, after Wells attacked Shannon Manor and captured Eugene, Mrs. Joyce rushed to the palace overnight to ask for an audience under the escort of Wells' knights.

Although when this woman walked into his room, she still put on that arrogant look. It seems that her meeting with Eugene in private was a very normal, very upright social event. Instead, he planted people, spied on the news and preempted the action, destroying the trust and cooperation foundation with her.

A few minutes later, though. She recognized the reality under her indifferent gaze.

Especially when she saw her best friend, Natasha, who had been friends for more than ten years, walk into the room, take her arm and smile at her. Her whole person seemed to be evacuated, her face was as pale as paper, and she no longer had the arrogance she usually had.

If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Joyce had a considerable portion of this coalition in her hands. If it weren't for wanting to control Zuni City, he would still need her assistance. Schilling wanted to slap this beautiful woman in the face and then strip her naked and throw her on the bed!

That's what he's wanted to do from the first day he met Joyce.

That day is not far off, though. As long as it is past today, not only Joyce, Natasha and these nobles, but also the entire city of Muni and even Lulian. will all kneel at their feet!

......

Schilling shook off his and climbed the stairs. Walked up to the terrace of the Hera Hotel.

As soon as they saw him coming, on the terrace, all the nobles avoided and dodged a passage. Some saluted, others turned their heads away with disdain.

to the shape of the surrounding multitude. Schilling just didn't care.

Whether it is flattery or angry glare, it is just a wisp of wind for him, who already has Eugene in his hands. Today, these aristocrats are just a bunch of bystanders. The only role they have standing here is to witness how they turn their hands into clouds and their hands into rain. Take control of this majestic city!

However, there are some people that even he can't ignore.

Seeing the three female envoys of the Holy Maiden Temple, Schilling's expression moved, walked in front of them, bowed gracefully and said, "It is an honor for the contemptible people and the people of the city to be able to meet you saints in Muni City. Your brilliance is as dazzling as the sun and the moon. ”

Even on a formal occasion, such a meeting compliment still seemed a little numb, especially when Schilling faintly represented the people of the city, which made the local nobles present frown. Many people secretly spat and secretly scolded this guy for being shameless.

However, for the envoys of the Holy Maiden Temple, such a compliment could not be more normal.

The leading envoy nodded, calmly accepted Schilling's compliment, and said lukewarmly, "Mr. Schilling is polite." We are here today on orders to come precisely by means of seeing you. Ever since Lanreis went south, you've been in the limelight. It coincides with the turbulent and changing situation in Lulian. We want to know how the gentleman can show his powers. ”

In the Land of Salvation, the Basilica of the Holy Virgin is the only organization that can compete with the Holy See. On high, do not blaspheme. The female envoys in the palace are all orphan girls selected from all over the world, raised in the temple since childhood, and rarely have contact with outsiders, so they speak simply and directly, and are not used to beating around the bush.

Facing Schilling at this moment, this noble third-level female envoy is also straightforward and straight to the point.

Previously, because of Princess Elethea's relationship, the Holy Maiden Hall and the Golden Dragon Family were not in harmony, and it was well known. However, with Augustus's promotion to the Paladin and his personal visit, many high-ranking members of the Holy Maiden Temple have changed their attitudes and want to be friendly with the Golden Dragon Family.

This is tantamount to bad news for the Solan royal family.

It was Eretia's resolute joining the Temple of the Virgin that allowed Edward to suppress the forces that were about to stir and win a respite.

And once the Lanris who are eyeing the throne of Solan have completed this draw. Then, the Solan royal family will be abandoned by all the nobles. The Golden Dragon Family, the Holy See, and the nobles led by Donald will pounce on them like wolves, tearing the Solan family's century-old imperial power to pieces.

However, what made everyone fall through the glasses was that at this time, a boy from the south stopped the Lanriths with a slap in Scarlett's face.

As the most favored member of the Golden Dragon Family and the cousin of Augustus's childhood sweetheart, Scarlett actually lost the gamble and became the slave girl of the Bolabel petty handyman, this fact is definitely a great shame for the Golden Dragon Family, which is high up and commands the heroes.

With such shame, they did not have the face to form an alliance with the Holy Virgin. And the voices in the Holy Maiden Temple, which leaned towards the Golden Dragon Family, could only remain silent.

Because of this, Schilling was ordered to go south. And because of that. These women envoys of the temple of the Holy Maiden are here today. Their task is to witness with their own eyes how the Golden Dragon Family washes away their shame. How to use their strong hands to stand on this land!

The envoy said whatever she wanted. No scruples. But these words fell into the ears of everyone present, but it was different.

For a while, everyone was in an uproar.

Although everyone knows that in this Muni City, Schilling hides behind the scenes, calling for wind and rain. But it can really be picked, and it is still difficult to accept putting a qiē on the table. In particular, the Count of Cajuns and the local nobles around him who were loyal to the Archduke Adolf were even more angry.

What to say here. It is also Saint Solan, the city of Muni, ruled by the Loulian family for nearly a hundred years. Even if Grand Duke Adolf was under siege, there were also General Eugene and many lords and nobles here. How can an outsider jump out and use this land as a stage to show what means?!

The words of the female envoy of the Holy Maiden Temple, whether unintentional or direct, are like a steel knife. cut on the hearts of the people. Everybody felt a deep sense of shame.

And what about Schilling!

How would he reply? He really wants to stand in the front of the desk today, and use the identity of an outsider to trample Lulian's dignity under his feet? !

All eyes are on this moment. They all gathered on Schilling.

In front of everyone's eyes, the corners of Schilling's mouth slowly hooked up a smile. He raised his eyebrows slightly, raised his chin haughtily, and then. In front of these hundreds of Solan nobles and representatives of major forces, he snapped his fingers to the audience!

It is a gesture that summons a servant or subordinate.

But when everyone turned their heads to look, they were shocked to find that the object of Schilling's greeting was actually twenty or thirty noble lords of Lulian!

Everyone was stunned.

Whether it was the local nobles, or the representatives of the nobles from all over the world, and even the people of the four major families and the Holy Maiden Temple, they all stared blankly at these nobles who got off the carriage and stepped onto the platform.

What familiar faces they were!

Led by the Marquis of Joyce and Count Natasha, these dozens of people are all famous lords and nobles of Lulian!

It's different from those nobles who are in the middle of the road and only have titles. The youngest of them was also a baron who owned a city. And a great nobleman like the Marquis of Joyce has the power to influence the situation in Mooney. It can be said that nearly half of the soldiers in the barracks today are their people. Eighty percent of the military supplies are provided by them. Any one of them stomped their feet and could make the city of Muni tremble.

And now, with a snap of Schilling's fingers, they came over.

The nobles on the platform all fell into a dead silence. And the civilians around also noticed that something was wrong. All of them were on tiptoe, looking this way.

In the eyes of everyone, although the expressions on the faces of the nobles who had taken refuge in the Lanris family were not so natural, they still followed the leader Natasha and walked behind Schilling and stood still one by one. It's like a posture led by Schilling. Just as they used to stand behind Archduke Adolf!

After a moment of silence, an uproar rose to the sky!

"This ...... What does this mean?"

"They...... How did they ......"

People stupidly looked at the familiar faces behind Schilling, unable to believe their eyes.

To tell the truth, long before today, there was news in the streets and alleys of Muni City that all kinds of nobles had taken refuge in the Lanris.

However, most people scoff at these news. In their opinion, Schilling's rebellion may be true, but it is hard to believe that Mrs. Joyce, who has followed Archduke Adolphus for many years and has a good reputation in ordinary times, betrayed at the same time.

Unexpectedly, just today, in front of everyone's eyes. The nobles, led by Natasha and Mrs. Joyce, actually stood behind him with a snap of Schilling's fingers!

Even if they didn't say a word from beginning to end, their behavior has already been explained!

This is an open, unmistakable betrayal!

"It's amazing!" In the crowd, the royal historian Alvin was secretly shocked, "The Lanris people have made a move! He really subjugated Mrs. Joyce, the local nobles of Lulian!"

Although Alvin has long understood the secret changes in the city of Muni through the report. But he still didn't expect that Schilling would control these nobles who had taken refuge in the Lanris family so submissively!

It's one thing to take refuge, but it's another thing to stand up publicly.

These noble lords are all natives of Loulian. their family. Their territory, their wealth and glory, are all rooted here. If it weren't for some reason that was so special that they should ignore it, they would never have stood behind Schilling in front of the city's inhabitants and many imperial nobles!

Alvin didn't know what kind of magic Schilling had used on these nobles to make them so desperate. But he knew that as soon as Schilling made this move, it was equivalent to announcing that this Muni City. It's become the world of the Lanris!

Alvin had the same thoughts, along with all the nobles present. The uproar grew louder and louder, and gradually became a raging tide. And this scene soon spread to the audience and to the ears of countless people. The entire South Gate Square was shocked and angry.

"Mrs. Joyce, have you taken refuge with the Lanris?"

"Damn, there's the Bobis family. You see. The appearance of the three brothers standing behind Schilling is like a dog raised by the Lanriths!"

"And Baron Gerald and Baron Clive!"

"Shame on them!"

"Betrayal. This is a shameless betrayal! Are you still a nobleman of Lulian?"

"Lanris, get out of Muni City!"

The square erupted in an earth-shattering uproar and shouting. Both nobles and commoners were filled with righteous indignation.

In the audience, an old knight with a pestle and a cane was questioning loudly. Beside him, at the front of the crowd around him. Some well-known elders also stood up one after another. Everyone, outraged by the facts before them, was deeply humiliated.

This is Lulian!

This is the barracks gate of Muni City!

And today, they were originally here to witness their army go out to fight against the invasion of Filie. But because of the betrayal of the scum among these nobles, they watched the Lanris show off their power here.

Many were trembling with anger. I couldn't believe the facts in front of me. However, no matter how many of them were, no matter how loud the shouting and scolding were, it was just a gust of wind.

Schilling looked at the crowd around him with a smirk.

In this world, what has the right to speak is just a sword in the hand.

He has seen too many of this kind of stupid people. Whether it's anger or humiliation, all they can do is scold a few times when they are defenseless.

It is still the domain of the Loulian family, who are still subjects of the Archduke Adolf. Therefore, in the face of themselves as outsiders, they can do whatever they want without scruples. Especially under the influence of group feelings, it seems that if they don't scold a few times, they can't show their loyalty and integrity.

But if they had taken control of the city, when they had realized the reality, when they had seen those who dared to provoke the Lanrith family being hung on the gallows, they would have dispersed in panic like a flock of quails, hiding far away, trembling all over.

A bunch of ridiculous pariahs!

Slowly retracting his gaze, what Schilling saw was the undisguised shocked gaze of the Holy Maiden Envoy.

"Lord Schilling is really good," the envoy's gaze crossed Schilling's faces, and swept over the faces of Natasha and the others one by one, and after a while, she nodded approvingly, "As soon as you make a move, you will win." With the support of so many people, it seems that this city of Muni can only be ordered by the orders of the adults. ”

"Shameless!"

As soon as the voice of the envoy fell, an angry voice sounded beside it.

Everyone turned their heads to see that the Earl of Cousins had already come out of the crowd!

The royal envoy, whose face was flushed and his beard was trembling, angrily pointed at the noses of Lady Joyce, Natasha and other noble lords, and shouted and scolded: "Archduke Adolf is fighting bloody battles on the front line and is in danger, and you, as his loyal knights and vassals, have betrayed your lord to seek glory and become the lackeys of the Lanrisians!"

He strode over, and his eyes seemed to burst into flames: "Ruthless, unjust, incorruptible, shameless bastard! Your ancestors will be disgraced because of you!",

The roar of the Earl of Cousins echoed across the terrace. After a moment of silence, there was a burst of cheers all around!

"Good scolding!"

"A bunch of nasty embryos who eat inside and out! It's a shame to be so generous to you on a fair day!"

"Without the Grand Duke, how can you be where you are today, but now, you want to force the Grand Duke to death!

For a time, the crowd was furious. The nobles loyal to Archduke Adolf scolded one after another, and even some representatives of the nobles who came from afar cast contemptuous glances at Natasha and the others.

"Hey, isn't this the Count of Cousins?" Schilling turned his head in surprise, ignoring everyone's scolding, and said to Cousins with a smile, "I heard that when you arrived in Lulian, you never returned to the imperial capital. Eat and live in the mansion of the Grand Duke Adolf. I guess if it weren't for you to hide, Archduke Adolf wouldn't have gone to the front and ended up in today's fields. ”

"Fart!" Count Cousins glared at Schilling.

"What?" Schilling's long, cold eyes narrowed into a slit, and he looked at him coldly, "Am I not right?"

"Schilling," Count Cousins said angrily, "this is the Saint Solan Empire! Not Lanris! Not a place for you to go wild! You little second-class butler, don't think too highly of yourself! If you don't want to cause trouble for your master, hurry up and leave in your empty magic ship! Don't fish in troubled waters here and make waves." Do something nasty. Otherwise, when Grand Duke Adolf returns, he will chop you alive!"

"Cousins," said Schillingson coldly, "you don't really think that Adolphus will come back alive, do you?"

"Of course!" said Cousins, "Archduke Adolf has been through a hundred battles, and the Philaedons want his life, and it's not yet time!"

"Oh, is it?" Schilling smiled sneeringly, "It's not that I want to curse our esteemed Grand Duke Adolf, but I think he's old enough to live long ago." Besides, the situation is not up to anyone, and he is dead. You'd better prepare for his funeral. ”

The crowd around was scolding.

I knew that the Lanris people were flying and domineering, but no one expected that a second-level butler would dare to stand on the land of Muni City and say such things openly!

It's a complete tear in the face!

If Schilling dared to say such a thing in normal times, he would definitely not be able to leave Muni City. But at this moment, what makes people angry is that the nobles behind him have given him the confidence to be arrogant! Even these rulers of Muni City have become his lackeys, who else can do anything to him?!

"Presumptuous!" several nobles around Count Cousins and their guards and knights all shouted loudly, and drew their swords angrily.

But before their hands grasped the hilt of their swords, they heard the sound of horses' hooves and the choking of swords coming out of their sheaths under the terrace.

Dozens of knights who followed Schilling rode their horses to form two long formations, arcing around the field to isolate the terrace from the surrounding crowd...... (To be continued......)
