Chapter 339: Turbulence (3)
The banner with the bright red Yan character as the coat of arms is the army of the Duke of Andrew in the middle, the warriors wearing white crescent armor on a black background, from the brave Duke of Asaph in the southern field, and the silver armor and white horse, sharp long shield, this dazzling and gorgeous must be under the command of Duke Darren.

Eli was sure that he was not mistaken, that the imposing army was the alliance of the three dukes, and that what surprised him even more was yet to come.
When the cavalry came to the gate of the village, they stopped, and spread out on both sides, dividing into a great avenue, and three men in fine clothes rode high war horses, all of them were imposing, their eyes were fierce and uninhibited, and the momentum of the superior was fully displayed.
Seeing Ling Ran's fierce and unafraid black-armored knights of their army, they glanced at each other and nodded secretly, this is the target they are looking for this time, they turned over and dismounted at the same time, and strode into the village, the direction is the tent that is independent of the black-armored knights in the center.
The three ancient families to which the three dukes belong, all of whom were the swords that opened up the Flying Wing Kingdom thousands of years ago, have a deep heritage, and now they are united against the central royal family, and the victory or defeat can reach four or six kai, which can be said to be amazing.
Controlling the vast territory, there is a strong family behind them, they are big people above 10,000 people under one person, and the Hawke royal family in the Flying Wings country is worthy of their treatment, but today they have come to the remote countryside of the wilderness, and the things they are trying to do must not be so simple, Eli's heart is beating faster, and he faintly feels that something very important is about to happen.
Even if there are no guards around, the sense of oppression brought by the three dukes with the strength of the great knights is very strong, like the lion king in the jungle.
The knight captain Bowen looked solemn, and the fighting spirit on his body was already burning, in addition to him, the other dozen or so people were also burning with fighting energy, and the cavalry who had not yet reached the knight level followed behind them, forming a close battle formation, the treasure flashed brightly, the blood and spiritual will condensed into a huge momentum, and the air became more and more precipitated!
Just as the two sides were getting closer and closer, and the conflict was about to break out, a flat voice came from the tent: "Bowen, don't be rude in front of the guests. ”
Compared to the two awe-inspiring sides, this voice was completely deterrent, but it was such a light tone that suppressed the angry cavalry, they retreated to the sides without saying a word, side by side, and the raised spears crossed against each other in the air, no longer an aggressive gesture, but a ritual for the knights in the army to greet the strong.
The three dukes simultaneously withdrew the pressure from their bodies and advanced in a zigzag pattern, and every time they crossed a distance of five meters, the spears that intersected in front of them raised and withdrew to the sides, making way for an unobstructed path.
Walking to the tent, the three of them paused, through a gray curtain, and waited for the invitation of the master of the inner room to show respect.
"The three dukes don't need to be so polite, please come in. ”
Charon's voice came from the tent, bringing with it a light breeze that rolled inward, and the curtain was held to the sides by an invisible force until the three dukes entered the rear before falling.
"Andrew (Asaph, Darren) has seen His Excellency Del!"
The three dukes, who were regarded as proud eagles by the wingers, did not put themselves on the shelf, and saluted themselves at the beginning, in fact, they were not qualified to negotiate terms with the rising Del family, and they came here to seek cooperation and protect themselves.
"Del has seen the dukes. Charon's eyes were as calm as a lake, without any awe-inspiring majesty, which made the three dukes feel that they were not as famous as they met, except that they were too young, and there was nothing unique about them that surprised them, and it did not match what was rumored.
Despite the doubts in their hearts, the three of them still sat down at the signal of the master of this room, and they did not want to have a boring greeting between the nobles, so they said straight to the point: "Your Excellency, I have come to seek cooperation and seek common interests. ”
"I understand, say what you ask. ”
Neither the arrival nor the words spoken by the other party alarmed Charon's heart, and there was no way to win against the Hawke royal family and use the forbidden arts, and it was difficult for the three dukes to withstand such pressure, and it was not surprising to turn to him for help, after all, as long as the Del family did not want to swallow the wings, there was no conflict of interest between the two parties.
The three dukes were a little surprised by Charon's directness, but the unconcealed conversation was more conducive to cooperation, so Duke Andrew, who was the leader, said in a deep voice: "We hope that Your Excellency Del will not form an alliance with Hawke, and exert substantial pressure in the future, and we will actively cooperate to let it fall into the quagmire step by step." ”
"The final consequence is that Hawke will decline, and he will step down from the stage of history like the former royal family of your country, and the flying wings will be divided into several parts to join the Tors Federation, and when the time comes, Your Excellency will also be able to collect the land you have conquered, and our three dukes will be able to keep the glory given by our ancestors. ”
The three dukes dared to say this, it was because they thought about it thoroughly, through various signs, they sensed that the Del family had no intention of destroying the flying wings, this guess may be wrong, but in fact, if the other party is as terrifying as the rumors, no one can stop them from doing anything, it is better to think about things on the bright side.
Assuming that the other party does not aim to destroy the flying wings, then the ideal result they proposed can be completely realized, except for the disintegration of the country and the decline of the royal family, the three dukes, the Del family, and the Torse Federation are all winners, and the Del family has the most profits.
In the past, Charon would have tried to squeeze each other to maximize the interests of the family, but now he found that these things were so boring.
Seeing that he was silent, the hearts of the three dukes couldn't help but sink, and they were mentally prepared for the other party's lion to open his mouth, and then they heard Charon say: "Your suggestion is good, but the Del family still needs the canonization sword in the name of the royal family, and the superficial alliance will continue, do you think .....?"
"Naturally, we will not be demanding, as long as Your Excellency Del does not support Hawke in substance, the cooperation can be carried out. ”
Duke Andrew responded, and the other two also agreed, in fact, it was a surprise for them to reach a verbal agreement so easily, but after all, the verbal was just talking, only the binding of the contract could make the cooperation have a basic guarantee, so they looked at each other and nodded, and Duke Darren took out the previously prepared contract from his arms.
The contract is made of tough gray cowhide, covered with mystical patterns, and the dark golden balance in the center occupies a considerable part of the space, oscillating with calm and powerful fluctuations.
In order to achieve this cooperation, the three dukes also made a bloody investment, this Cheeks Covenant is the heirloom of the Darren family, the value alone is not lower than the real weapon, and the binding force of the contract is also extremely strong, and the person who violates the contract will bear the curse of the untrustworthy, and a lot of life force can be reduced in the dark.
Darren poured into the fighting energy, and the Chixas contract levitated and flew in the air, releasing a brilliant blue light, and the balance extended from the plane into a three-dimensional object.
"In the witness of fairness and justice, today we swear that Andrew, Asaph, Darren, and Del will form an alliance to unite politically, economically, and militarily to jointly suppress the Hawke royal family....... The above is the most basic principle, and those who make a contract must not violate it! Those who break their promises will suffer the repercussions of the contract, and their lives will be lost in a curse, turning into a touch of wind and sand!"
After listening to the oath-taker's request, the blue light of the contract bloomed in the air, which was the contract regulation, and the bottom line was bright red as blood was the accompanying curse.
The three dukes took the lead in stretching out their palms, and a drop of essence blood appeared from the palm of his hand, and with a shock of his palm, the essence blood fell to the contract, on which it turned into their names, and the images of their faces appeared, Darren with a gloomy face, Andrew with anger, and Asaph with pride, this contract can show the most prominent characteristics of the contractor's character.
The Duke of Asaph greeted Charon and said, "Your Excellency, Please!"
Charon raised his eyelids, red blood oozed from his eyebrows, and shot towards the contract on its own, the three dukes stared at the contract quietly, they also wanted to know what kind of person the head of the Del family would be after all.
The contract quickly absorbed the essence blood, and the third duke couldn't help but feel suffocated in his heart, and the image of Charon that appeared on the contract was terrifying, it was a lifeless face, dense blood was everywhere, and the dim red light in the eye holes gradually extinguished, forming an empty black hole, but it seemed that something different was being born, which made people feel uneasy.
When a few people wanted to dig deeper, the image suddenly disappeared, the contract was completed, and the dark golden balance bloomed with dazzling brilliance, shattering into a little fluorescence in the light, and falling on the four people.
"The contract has been concluded, the three of you don't have to worry about the future, I will send someone to discuss the details with you and others, and now I will leave for your royal domain. ”
Glancing at the Third Duke, Charon got up from his seat, walked out of the tent, and nodded to Knight Bowen to prepare to leave.
The three dukes also got up to send them off, and the details could only be discussed when everything settled down, and today their purpose has been achieved, but the scene when the contract appeared, it was difficult for them to let go of their hearts, what state the other party was in, seemingly weak but terrifying.
However, this is not the time to pursue these things, in order to dispel the rumors that the three dukes have defected to outsiders in the future, they still have to clear this village, and there should be no living people within ten miles of the surrounding area.
The third duke's eyes flashed with murderous intent, they cooperated with the Del family for the sake of the noble family, but for the country after all, they are disloyal and have a bad reputation, so the foolish people, if you want to blame, you can only blame you for living in such troubled times, and you have no strength to resist.
By the time the flames of slaughter ignited in the village, the Black Iron Rider had galloped farther and farther into the field, eventually turning into a black dot and disappearing into the distant horizon.
