The knights were heavily armoured, and each of them had a face obscured by a cold steel mask. They were tall and rode equally tall and majestic horses, and were well-trained in their movements. The spears on horseback, the long sword on their backs, were as sharp and cold as their eyes.

In front of these knights, the crowd retreated like a bubble of waves hitting a reef. Many of them were forced backwards and fell down by the war horses that were high above their heads, and the scene was chaotic.

After separating the people, six of the knights turned their horses' heads and rode directly down the steps, rushing to the terrace in such a way that they were startled to dodge. The leader, a knight in red armor, rushed to Schilling on his horse before turning over and throwing his stirrups and taking off his helmet.

The man had a large square face, thick eyebrows, and blond hair in a messy shawl. He has a beard that covers his mouth and chin. A pair of eyes, full of fierce light.

"Dana!The Lanris family, the Great Knight of Light of the Eastern Dragon's Claw!" said one of the chaotic nobles, "He's actually here." ”

"Who is Dana?" asked someone next to him in a whisper.

The man gritted his teeth and lowered his voice, "This damn guy is a vicious dog of the Lanrith family. The two-star knight of the Great Light, with a secret fire-gathering fighting spirit and the cloud-burning combat skills passed down by Leonardo, the patriarch of the Eastern Branch, is rampant and domineering. I don't know how many unjust souls there are under my hands!"

"God, a two-star Knight of Light......," someone exclaimed, "Archduke Adolf is gone, and General Fano is gone." Who is still his opponent in the current city of Muni?"

What's more!

Standing on this terrace are all nobles from all over the empire, well-informed. He is all too familiar with the Lanrith family and the armed forces under their command.

In addition to Dina they knew, there were five other knights. Everyone is no stranger to it. That's all the real long knights of the Knights of the Dragonclaw of Lanris!

Leonardo, the patriarch of the Eastern Branch, and the Dragonclaw Knights under his command have always been a spear of the Lanris family. Whether it's conflicts, assassinations, or bodyguards for important members, as long as you can see the golden dragon banner of the Lanreis family, you can see the shadow of the dragon claw knight.

There are three levels of Dragonclaw Knights. The lowest rank is the Knight of the Impartial. The second is the long knight who is the knight of glory. And the high-level dragon claw knights, there are ten in total. All of them are Knights of Light. Patriarch Leonardo and the three Grand Elders of the Dragonclaw. It also has the strength of a sword master or a paladin.

For more than 200 years, the Dragonclaw Knights have fought everywhere and contributed to the expansion of the Lanrith family.

They are powerful and ferocious, and some of them are carefully selected from thousands of knights in the Duchy of Lanris. The other part is the strong people recruited by the Lanris family in the three major empires. They are the most loyal warriors of the Lanris family, and they are not afraid to die!

You can't remember anymore. How many legends about the Dragonclaw Knight have been circulating on the mainland.

But whether it's the Dragonclaw Knights running thousands of miles to hunt down disrespectful and traitors, or breaking into a nobleman's well-defended castle and slaughtering it all over the place, or taking the castle and beheading the lord along with the city's nobles...... All the legends prove one thing - never go against the Dragonclaw Knight.

These guys, cruel, cold-blooded and religious. For the Langrith family. They can do anything. Whether it's giving his life, or what a thousand people are referring to. Full of evil!

One Dyna, plus these five dragon claw long knights and dozens of knights in the audience, such a strength is enough to sweep through Muni City. Unless Eugene dares to take the blame for the crimes that Qianfu refers to, and plunge the city of Muni into a civil war that engulfs everyone, otherwise. In this encounter, he is doomed!

The hall was silent for a moment.

Cousins and the nobles around him were pale. Even if they had the heart to fight Schilling, they had no chance of winning. Fill them in along with the knights of the guards. It's not enough for Dana to stuff his teeth alone!, and the others looked at Schilling's gaze full of shock and fear.

The curtain of this drama has just opened, and the ending is already about to come out!

The noble lords who openly betrayed, and these dragonclaw knights, there was no strength in the city of Muni that could compete with the Lanriths.

Unless Grand Duke Adolf miraculously leads the main force out of the encirclement of the Feretes, or Fano risks a great rout, retreats in front of the Fereans' troops, and returns to the city with his army in a day, no one will be able to stop Schilling, the second-level butler of Lanris, from ruling the city!

Lourien is done!

This was a thought that crossed the hearts of many people present.

Even the most disgusted people of the Lanris family have to admit that on this continent, the Lanris family is a well-deserved first family! This greedy and powerful golden dragon has already suppressed its opponent to death by just pressing a little finger on Lulian in the south thousands of kilometers away!

In the Duchy of Lanris, Schilling was only a second-level butler with a not-so-prominent status. But at this moment, in the city of Muni, he is the ruler of Qiē!

And by this time, General Eugene, who was supposed to be Schilling's opponent, had not yet appeared.

"What?" Looking at Cousins, who was bruised with his hand on the hilt of his sword, and the nobleman beside him, Schilling said with a contemptuous face, "Do you still want to do it now?"

In a deathly silence, Cousins gritted his teeth and said, "Schilling, don't be too rampant. General Eugene, you will never let you succeed! All of you will pay the price!"

"Eugene?" Schilling laughed.

Everyone looked at each other. In Schilling's laughter, they heard something unusual!

"What......" Count Cousins' face changed, and his eyes looked at the many nobles behind Schilling in disbelief. In the face of his gaze, those people silently avoided it.

"I've always wanted to meet with General Eugene and discuss with him the defenses of Muni. I think what he and General Fano are doing is irresponsible. Throwing the few remaining troops into the bottomless pit of rescuing Grand Duke Adolf, where do they want to put the lives of the people of the city?"

Schilling looked at Cavins, raised his eyebrows slightly, and sneered, "However, I heard. General Eugene left the barracks last night and never returned. I don't know where it's gone now. Mr. Cakins, if you know where General Eugene is, let him come out and meet us. ”

Looking at Schilling's fearless smile, the crowd was in a commotion!

Among these people present, which one is not accustomed to intrigue. If based on Schilling's attitude and these words, they still can't guess that something happened to Eugene, it would be too insulting to their intelligence!

"General Eugene is not in the army?"

"Where did he go?"

"Could it be that they were ...... by Schilling?"

"No, it won't. ”

The scene was chaotic for a moment. If it is said that the public betrayal of the previous nobles and the appearance of Dana and others, everyone has heard a little rumor and is a little mentally prepared, then, Schilling's words. It was like a thunderclap that stunned everyone.

If Eugene is ...... A terrible thought was tumbling in the hearts of the people. Everyone's eyes were focused on Schilling's face.

"You ......," said Count Cousins, shocked and angry, "what did you do to General Eugene?"

"Huh?" said Schilling strangely, "don't you know where General Eugene is, why did you ask about me? Let me be honest with the fact that this has nothing to do with me. Maybe. Did the general think that the mess in Muni City was not easy to clean up, so he simply ran away overnight?"

"Schilling. You ......" Count Cousins was only trembling with anger, and his hands and feet were cold.

At this time, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that Eugene must have fallen into Schilling's hands. This discovery made him lose his mind for a while.

There was a lot of talking. Whether it is the representative of the four major families, the female envoy of the Holy Maiden Temple. It is still the nobles who represent all forces, and when they look at Schilling's gaze at this moment, they have all changed.

Although it is not certain that Eugene will fall into the hands of Schilling, but Schilling dares to be so fearless, I am afraid that the truth will not be far from ten.

The two camps are fighting. It is related to tens of thousands of soldiers on the front line, to Grand Duke Adolf and the people of this city, it can be described as life and death. And Eugene's side is not only inferior to his opponent's strength, but even he himself doesn't know where to go, how can he fight? It's better to lie down and admit it directly.

The news was so shocking. None of the nobles dared to slack off, and sent their servants to check the authenticity.

A moment later, the news had already arrived.

What Schilling said is true!

Since leaving last night, Eugene has not returned to the barracks. Until now, the army had been commanded by Avery Avery, the acting commander appointed by Eugene at the time of his departure.

It is reported that Avery had already issued martial law last night, and this morning he had strengthened the garrison of the barracks. The major camps are not allowed to mobilize a single soldier without his warrant, otherwise, they will be punished as rebellion!

There is something in the wind!

Everyone felt a chill from this news. Only then did everyone realize that under the calm lake of Muni City, there was already an undercurrent turbulent.

Apparently, Eugene didn't return overnight, and Avery was aware of some kind of danger. And as the acting commander, he issued martial law, which was the only choice to deal with the noble lords forcing the palace.

His position was assigned when Eugene left. Now he is the supreme commander in the army. Noble officers, including Darnell, the lieutenant, had to obey his orders. As long as he does not order the lifting of martial law, no one will dare to act rashly.

Although these nobles had already taken refuge in the Lanris, they did not dare to risk the condemnation of the world and brazenly ordered an army to rebel. That doesn't do them any good.

As local nobles, what they wanted was a complete city of Muni, a full coalition army to defend their possessions and territories against the invasion of the Firetes. And the purpose of the Lanris people is to establish power. They did not want to get involved in a civil war and settle down.

Therefore, it is useless for the nobles to stand outside in order to get control of the coalition forces. There's only one way they can do - and that's to get Avery out!

In this coalition, these noble lords who led their private armies did not have command, but they were nominally members of the Senate of the High Command. According to military regulations, if the commander is missing or killed, the nine senate elders have the right to elect a new successor.

And at this moment, among the nine noble senators, there are seven standing behind Schilling, accounting for the majority.

Avery has been under martial law, and these people can't do anything about him. But as soon as he comes out, they can immediately launch a motion to elect a new manager. Until that time. Unless Eugene returns, or Avery can prove that these nobles have committed some kind of crime and have lost their standing as Senate elders, he will not be able to do so.

What is disgusting is that Eugene certainly can't come back. Avery also had no way to deprive these noble lords of their Senate elders.

Because, for one, the Empire of Saint Solan and the Duchy of Lanris were not belligerents, and Schilling was nominally a guest rather than an enemy. They befriended Schilling, and they didn't have any crimes. Second, they did not publicly declare their betrayal, nor did they do anything against military law, therefore. Even if they were to stand behind Schilling at this moment, no one would be able to crucify them in the law.

On the contrary, if these so-called Senate elders were to attack en masse, Avery would have become his crime if he refused to hand over power or even took the lead in taking action.

I have to say that Schilling's move is really vicious.

Now the only hope. It was Avery who simply cowered in the barracks. Anyway, today's dispatch of troops has come to naught. It would be better to simply seal off the barracks. Time drags on. Maybe General Fano, who is far away on the front line, will be able to react and defuse this crisis.

In the midst of the discussion, time passed minute by minute. The sun became brighter, but the atmosphere in the square became more and more dull and depressing.

A qiē that happened on the terrace. It was like a shock wave of an explosion, spreading towards the surrounding crowd. A tsunami of exclamations and angry shouts from the crowd erupted.

The angry crowd began to stir, while the gates of the camp remained closed. The guards at the doorway and on the watchtower are like sculptures.

Seeing that Avery had decided to hold on to the strategy of staying behind closed doors, he left his opponent out to dry. Everyone present turned their eyes to Schilling. I don't know if this second-level butler of Lanrith has any tricks to face Avery who is closed in the door after throwing a set of combination punches.

"Looks like Avery isn't stupid. Schilling looked at his slender fingers, half-squinted his eyes, and said to Natasha beside him faintly.

Among the group of nobles beside Schilling, Natasha was the most desperate.

After doing it last night, she had no way out. Today, either seize control of the coalition forces and Muni City, and go with the Lanrith family to the end. Or, it's a complete defeat. If the crime of attacking Eugene with Wells and others is exposed, I am afraid that she will not escape death.

Therefore, in the face of the disdainful gazes of everyone around her, Natasha turned a blind eye and chuckled, "I think Mr. Avery probably needs some time to think about it. General Eugene is missing, and his acting commander is not capable. We, the Senate elders, how can we rest assured that we will hand over the troops to him?"

As soon as her voice fell, she heard the Earl of Cousins on the side, spit on the ground fiercely, and scolded: "Son of a bitch!"

The old man is fierce by nature, and he is jealous and hateful. Although this angry scolding was really contrary to the aristocratic demeanor, it also won a burst of laughter and praise from everyone around.

From the terrace of the Upper Hera Hotel, this Natasha was shamelessly close to Schilling, following in unison, with a triumphant face. seems to have fallen in love with Schilling, and since then he has risen to the top and is superior to others. Compared with Mrs. Joyce and the others beside her, it was much more flamboyant.

Everyone is not used to Natasha's face.

Natasha's expression was stunned, and her face was blue and white. But after a few moments, she was at ease.

She turned her head to look at Count Cousins with a sarcastic face, and said lightly: "Don't forget, Mr. Cousins, this is Lulian. As a guest, you are honest, we welcome. But don't forget the rules of identity and try to interfere in our affairs. ”

As she spoke, she snorted coldly: "Don't be embarrassed!"

"Presumptuous!" The crowd around immediately shouted angrily.

"Good!" said Earl Cousins, smirking angrily, "I'll stand here to-day. See what other unseemly means you can use. I'm here to watch a play, it's better than some shameful betrayer to be scolded here. ”

"Do you think that Avery pretends to be a turtle with a shrunken head, and we can't do anything about him?" Before Natasha could sneer at him, Schilling glanced at Count Cousins lightly and sneered, "If he doesn't come out, can't we force him to come out?" I want to see how long he can hide if he is slapped in the face!"

As he spoke, Schilling gave Natasha a look.

Natasha reached out to a knight and whispered a few words in his ear. The knight nodded. When Natasha had finished speaking, she bowed and saluted, mounted her horse and galloped away. Soon passed through the crowd of people who were hurriedly avoiding and went out of the south gate.

"What do they want to do?"

There was speculation. The nobles who were inclined to the Grand Duke of Adolf had solemn expressions, while several female envoys of the Holy Maiden Temple were full of curiosity.

Schilling is out of the limelight today.

What was originally a contest between the two camps was evenly matched, but it became his overwhelming solo performance. If he can force Avery out, then once today's day passes, this second-level butler of the Lanris family will definitely be famous for Solan. Wherever he goes in the future, he will be greeted with awe-inspiring eyes.

I just don't know, what will he do?...... (To be continued......)
