Verse 325: Confusing

A good ball suddenly started to move, which no one expected, and all the nobles in the hall were stunned.

If ordinary civilians had encountered such a scene, most of them would have screamed and panicked, but these nobles did not.

Although they were very surprised, and even more puzzled how it could be the controller of Douala who was now at a disadvantage, they did not panic because of the entry of these heavily armed soldiers, and most of them had calm expressions, which reflected the gap between commoners and nobles.

The only thing the nobles did was move in small steps, away from the two sides of the dispute, and in a few moments two clearings were vacant around Adolf and around Aubrey.

Everyone was watching the confrontation between the two sides, watching the situation unfold, and no one said to stand up and cheer for Aubrey - Aubrey was only the lord of Douala, not their family, they all had their own families. Although there is a difference of status between Aubrey and them, what exists between them is more of a relationship similar to cooperation, which is not enough for them to take risks for Aubrey, and it is only right to protect oneself.

As the party involved in the incident, Aubrey stared at Clarence in front of him with anger, his eyes full of disbelief.

Cedric, who was beside him, was much calmer, and his expression didn't even change in the face of the emergency.

"Father!"

An angry roar broke the silence of the scene.

The blonde-haired Byron glared at Clarence like an angry lion, and his muscles were already tense.

"Clarence, how dare you do such a thing! You know my strength, I order you to let your men put down their weapons at once!"

Knight Clarence didn't even turn his head to look at him, and he didn't have the slightest shame in the face of Aubrey's angry look, and kept his face expressionless and didn't make any response, just slowly drew his sword and made a silent response.

Byron is not only a martial idiot, but also a violent temper, when he saw Clarence's actions, he didn't talk nonsense, and rushed up directly with his feet, rushed behind Clarence in a few big strides, and punched Clarence in the head.

Clarence spun around quickly, the crosssword in his hand arcing towards Byron.

Byron twisted his body and narrowly dodged the blow, and the attack in his hand was inevitably slowed down. Just as he was about to continue organizing his own attack, he found that Clarence had stabbed him with another sword.

Clarence's sword was dense and swept Byron through it like a storm. In this airtight offensive, Byron was overwhelmed, too late to run for his life, and could not organize an effective counterattack at all, and Clarence's offensive had not yet reached its peak, it was getting faster and faster.

In the eyes of others, it was to see the two of them fighting, and their eyes gradually couldn't keep up with the speed of the two people, only to see yellow and red things floating up.

However, in Norman's eyes, the movements of these two people were clearly seen, and nothing was missed.

Byron was no match for this Clarence at all.

Norman saw the outcome of the battle from the first move of the two men, so he didn't waste too much attention on the two of them, but put more attention on the blatant seizure of power in front of him.

It was the first time he had seen the power struggle between the nobles undisguised in such an open and undisguised way.

But that's fine, with what he observed some time ago, Adolf is on Shival's side. After Adolf suddenly made a move and put Xival in the position of the city lord, the "Master Hugo" is not too useful for Xival, after all, Xival wants to win over such a weapon forging master, and most of the reason is to increase the weight on his road to succession, and now that he has become the city lord, Master Hugo is not so important, and their farewell will be much easier.

And this sudden seizure of power will undoubtedly plunge Douala into a state of chaos for these two days, and even if they sneak away without saying goodbye, it will be much easier than usual and unnoticeable.

No matter how you look at it, this unexpected event is a good thing for him.

As for getting involved, Norman didn't think about it at all.

While Norman was thinking, the battle between Byron and Clarence had already been decided.

The warband came to an abrupt halt, and Clarence gathered his sword and stood, still expressionless, with a few drops of blood on his face at some point.

Opposite Clarence, Byron stood in place with his hair disheveled, his face dazed.

His dazzling blonde hair, which used to be as soft and thick as a lion, was now a ball of withered grass, and it was messy on his head, and many places were in a mess, as if they had been gnawed by dogs, and had shrunk a whole circle.

The yellow that flew up just now was his hair, scattered all over the ground.

In addition to his hair, he was covered with wounds in many places from his neck to his thighs, and thin and sharp wounds were distributed on it, blood leached out and stained his clothes red, and the original luxurious aristocratic dress was now in rags, and with his terrible hair, the son of this noble city lord was now like a beggar.

"Although I have no weapons, how can you defeat me......"

Byron seemed to be greatly affected and muttered to himself.

Listening to his own words, it seems that Clarence has never been his opponent. It's just that looking at the battle situation in front of him, anyone with a discerning eye can see why he has such an illusion - he used to be the son of the city lord, and Clarence is naturally not his opponent. But now that his son Aubrey has been pointed at with a sword, he is naturally not Clarence's opponent.

But Clarence did not give an explanation to Byron, and the knight was still expressionless and too lazy to speak.

As Byron's father, Aubrey did not become more angry because of his eldest son's current misery, but instead looked beyond the crowd to his youngest son, Shival.

"Is that you, Shival?"

Shival's expression at the moment was so strange: he was not as angry as his father and brother, nor was he as indifferent as other nobles, but he had uncontrollable joy on his face, which was so strange that it was no wonder that Aubrey noticed his son.

Although Shival's eyes were still puzzled, he still looked at Aubrey bravely, and the joy on the corner of his mouth could not be concealed, and said: "Dear father, I think what Mr. Adolphus said is right, you are old and you don't know that you have been deceived, this is not good news for these followers of the Campbell family, so I think it is time for the city to need a new owner." And I think I'm undoubtedly better suited to this position than my brother, who is full of military power. ”

Well, now the situation is completely clear.

After Xival spoke, everyone at the scene clearly saw the essence of this usurpation drama, and many nobles even put down their hanging hearts: it turned out to be just a drama of a son seizing his father's power, so it seems that they will not be affected, and their safety is guaranteed, which is reassuring.

But the change in this scene was so fast that everyone was caught off guard.

"I am glad that Mr. Shival is so supportive of my opinion, but I have some differences of opinion with Mr. Shival. ”

Adolf smiled and said, "I think Miss Shannie is more suitable to be the lord of Douala than Mr. Shival. ”

As soon as this sentence came out, everyone present was confused.

Shanni herself was the first to be stunned, her face dazed, completely unaware of what was going on.

Aubrey looked at his daughter with incredulity, shock, and confusion in his eyes.

With a look of "Did I hear you wrong?" Shival stood there dumbfounded, not looking at Shanni but at Adolf, wondering if the adult had said something wrong.

Byron is innocent, and at the moment he is still immersed in the disbelief that he has lost, and he can't extricate himself.

Norman was also a little confused.

Didn't Shanny Adolphus support Shival? How could this be related to Shanny?

Although he was educated a lot by the Templar Order, he lacked political experience after all, and it was Lancelot who gave a reasonable explanation.

"Judging from the current situation, this Adolf is indeed the second prince Gabriel's person, he came prepared this time, and Xival is just one of his exploits, his real purpose is to raise Shanni to the position of the lord of Doala. Gabriel and Shanni have a marriage contract, and putting Shanni in the position of the city lord is actually bringing Douala under the influence of the second prince, and this has another advantage, that is, it is easy to control. ”

"Shanni is just a simple little girl, without any of her own cronies and power, such a goal is very easy to control, saying that she should be the lord of Douala, but in fact it is Gabriel's own people who become the lord of Douala, and it is similar to blackmailing the Son of Heaven to make the princes. ”

The Knights Templar not only analyzed the situation in front of them, but also extended their usual practice to tutor Norman as an extracurricular tutor.

"In fact, we can analyze a lot of information from the current situation, such as why did the second prince send someone to do this? This should have a lot to do with the geographical location of Douala. Douala is located in the middle of the Duchy of Patrick and the Holke Territory, and it is the main road to the south of the Northland, from the Duchy of Patrick to Santa Vita, not to mention the small force, if it is a formed army, it must pass through Douala, it can be said that if there is a civil war between the kingdom, Douala is a place where soldiers must fight, if the royal family can control Doualala, it is equivalent to abolishing Randall a leg in the struggle for imperial power, on the contrary, for Randall, if he can master Douala, it will be like a tiger with wings, adding a lot of weight to his throne......”

After hearing Lancelot's detailed analysis, Norman finally straightened out the whole thing.

On the surface, the matter in front of me is two men fighting for women, but in fact, the root of this matter is still in the current struggle for imperial power.

Mr. Cedric, who had been sent by Randall, was in good spirits, and even in this case he did not panic, and said, "There has never been a reason for a woman to be in power in the kingdom, so I beg your pardon for not agreeing to this gentleman's proposal." Moreover, Mr. Aubrey is in the prime of life, and has always managed Douala in good order, and there is no such thing as mediocrity as you say. ”

As for why he was so calm, soon everyone knew.

With that, Cedric waved his hand, and the crowd saw Aubrey and the group of soldiers surrounding them fall to the ground.

It's a mage!

And with a raise of his hand, these well-trained soldiers fell, it seems that this is not a black-robed mage, it is very likely to be a red-robed mage and above.

"Betraying their masters, these soldiers really deserve to be punished. ”

Mages are the most vulnerable and easiest to defeat when they are close and have not yet cast a curse, which ordinary people may not know, but a knight with an experienced combat experience like Clarence does.

He also wanted to immediately step forward and take down the mage in front of him, but he didn't act rashly after all, because someone came.

A column of soldiers swarmed in through the doorway, quickly securing Aubrey and them in the middle, and Clarence could only take a step back for the moment in the face of these sudden appearances, watching them warily.

These were unfamiliar faces that he had never seen in Douala.

However, Clarence is not a vegetarian either, in the face of this situation, he suddenly whistled Changsheng, and after a while, the footsteps outside rumbled, and a large number of soldiers appeared at the door, some of them poured in, and there was a counter-encirclement of the group of people inside.

It's a good dance party, and now it's full of bright blades, and it's murderous.

Seeing this, Cedric still didn't panic at all, and said leisurely: "Maybe I should introduce to you that there are a total of 3 Golden Knights, 12 Silver Knights, 2 Red-robed Mages, and I, the Blue-robed Mage, by my side. Therefore, I advise you to lay down your weapons, this battle really has no meaning. ”

1 Blue Robe, 2 Red Robes, 3 Gold Robes, 12 Silver Robes......

As soon as this strength was reported, everyone at the scene gasped.

This lineup can be called luxurious, and if it is properly coordinated, it is not a big problem to destroy a regular thousand-man army, especially in this small space, it is equivalent to the existence of a meat grinder, how many people will die!

It's no wonder that Cedric has not changed his face from beginning to end, and Randle really takes this tough battle seriously.

Clarence, who had been expressionless, couldn't help but be shocked at this time: if the opponent's strength was really as he said, then they really had no chance of winning.

But Adolf was still unhurried, but suddenly opened his mouth and shouted.

He was not speaking a lingua franca, nor was it an ancient language, and no one at the scene, whether it was an ordinary person or a mage, could understand it, and after Adolf finished shouting, a similar voice came from outside, which was equally incomprehensible.

Then Adolf laughed and said, "You're right, this battle really doesn't mean much. As a mage, you should know how powerful a mage is, and it just so happens that there is a white-robed mage in front of you right now, and there is also a white-robed mage above our heads, and I really don't want things to get into trouble, so you know what I mean?"

Cedric, who had always been unhurried, suddenly froze his expression.
