Lu Shi Lu Zhang: The power of the chess piece
Thor frowned: "It's actually the Three Holy Society, it's a big trouble now. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info I didn't expect that after their main altar was destroyed for thousands of years, there would still be remnants of evil, and the evil is really inexhaustible!"
"Trouble, where is the trouble?" asked Yelena with a smirk as she looked at Thor and asked with a slight mockery.
Thor was surprised, "The whole village has been bewitched by witches, and according to the last part of Zhang Long's report, even the Baron of Dangerous Rock Fort is going to be pulled into the water, isn't it troublesome?
"Boy, you're still too tender!" Yelena smiled, "Do you know whose territory is Dangerous Rock Castle?"
Thor said, "The McAurey family. 」
"Well, let me ask you again, whose vassals are the McAureys?" said the Baroness meaningfully.
"King Leorik...... Ah, isn't it ......" Thor was taken aback, and his heart sank.
"Let me tell you, boy," Elena nodded, "the McAuray family, Leorick planted the eyeliner to spy on Archduke Kinmail, and Fort Danger is the equivalent of Votham's heart. Now that there is a problem in the village of Lake in their jurisdiction, it is not only not a trouble, but a good thing that can be exploited. As for Baron Derick himself being pulled into the water...... If this happens, it will be great news!"
Not only Saul, but Zhang Long was also terrified by the side. Elena continued, "If the Baron is bewitched and becomes a pawn of the regional demons, then even King Leorik himself will not be able to protect him. When the time comes, Wasam can justifiably send troops to level the Dangerous Rock Fort and completely control all the areas in the suburbs. And if you think about it, if something goes wrong with the vassals, how much face will the Candras royal family have to lose? The prestige of the royal family has been reduced, and the Grand Dukes can take the opportunity to claim higher autonomy, which is beneficial to the Chinmer in every way!"
"Yes," Esenhard said, who had been silent for a long time, "and we will find a way to convey this to Archduke Kimmel, and he will keep an eye on the situation." Let's think about what to do with Rixat, that's the point!"
Could this be the essence of the power struggle? Zhang Long once again realized the cruelty of reality. The living, rustic villagers of Lake Village are almost nothing in the eyes of those nobles in high positions, they will only focus on their power and status, and find ways to grab more and climb higher. In order to achieve these goals, the lives of ordinary people can be discarded, or even sacrificed at will as pawns!
If it is in his own favor that the village of Lake is controlled by the demons, then let him go, if the entire Dangerous Rock Fort falls into the hands of the demons, then it is even more celebratory, and if Baron Derrick is also controlled by the demons, it will be a pie in the sky!
After all, Thor was a relatively simple soldier, and it was very difficult to accept this, and he couldn't help but retort, "Is it necessary to sacrifice all the people of Dangerous Rock Fort for the sake of the interests of Grand Duke Vorsam and his vassals?
"Thor, don't be so righteous, okay?" Yelena said coldly, "Everyone is a pawn of someone who is higher than themselves, this is the rule of the game in the power field! The farmer is the pawn of the lord, the knight is the banner of the lord, and the vassal is the pawn of the lord...... Even the king is just a pawn on the chessboard of the world, played by the providence of the underworld! Man has no ability to change these rules, he can only adapt to it, master it, use it, first establish himself in an invincible position, and then strive to climb to a higher level. Only in this way can we control more people, and at the same time be controlled by fewer people, and win more rights and space for ourselves. As for those high-sounding reasons, they are just a cover to package and whitewash the true intentions, is it possible that you really want to do it? You have fought so many civil wars in Antistig, and you have almost caught up in it, after all, who are you protecting?"
Thor stammered, unable to utter anything to refute. Esenhard tapped on the table, "Okay, I think he'll figure it out." Zhang Long, do you have anything else to add about what you have seen and heard in Lake Village?"
Zhang Long thought about it, and said it: "Hmm...... I suspect that Nokolan is not an ordinary human witch, after all, I am also a person who has mastered a little bit of the power of the Holy Light, and common sense speculates that I should not be so embarrassed. So I think she's also a demon with a pseudonym, and she should be a leader, and her status may not be low!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then nodded again and again, Yelena smiled even more excitedly: "Haha, if that's the case, Derrick is estimated to be wasted! It's really great news, wait until I go back and check the information on demonology before making a decision......!" In this way, you can enter and exit the mansion freely, just like Haishan, and report anything directly to me! Okay, you can step down. 」
Zhang Long and the three of them left the conference hall with completely different moods, and wandered all the way to the stands. Fetsuma was training with Simpo at the training ground below, but the trio's attention was completely off them.
"Their words...... It's terrible......" Suina said with trepidation, "those villagers...... It's all a living human life...... Would they have the nerve to say something like that when they saw the child who had become a demon?"
"No way, that's what the noble lord thinks!" Hai Shan grinned, "We just need to do our own thing, that's enough." 」
"Thor...... You really look like a knight...... I mean, true knights......" Suina murmured, a hint of longing in her eyes. Zhang Long was keenly aware of it, and there was a faint sense of jealousy in his heart, and he was surprised: Could it be that he had unconsciously fallen in love with this black pearl?
This uneasy emotion evoked the devastating memories that had been completely suppressed by Nuo Kelan's demonic energy not long ago, and Zhang Long felt so sullen in his heart that he urgently needed to vent. He looked at the sweaty Phyluma under the stands and shouted, "Brother, I'll do two tricks with you!"
With that, he flew down the high stands, rolled over the cushion as he landed, and then leaped high and strode in front of Fektuma and Simbo, slamming his fists into the two barbarians.
"Grab your spear and let the horse come!" Phyruma smiled with a heroic and excited face, this is a real gladiator!
