Chapter 178: Knight Dignity

The deep and loud voice echoed in the 10,000-person square, and a fierce discussion immediately erupted in the crowd. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 The noisy voice of info is full of unhesitating rebukes and unrelated approvals, while more people choose to remain silent.

"You don't have the right to do that!"

A voice came from behind. Kenny and Alan turned to look at the man who had spoken boldly.

"The Nipur Chamber of Commerce has a history of 100 years, and it has made far more outstanding contributions to the economy of Nipur than the previous lords! What's more, you are just an outsider, what right do you have to abolish the legitimate rights and interests of the Chamber of Commerce?

"Of course not!" Kenny walked to the young businessman who spoke, "The Chamber of Commerce has indeed existed for hundreds of years, but in the past hundred years, it has been corrupted by power and interests!

The young businessman looked at Kenny as he approached, and he didn't know how to respond.

"My lord, I agree with what you just said. The old businessman who seemed to have a lot of status on the side opened his mouth, "In the past hundred years, the reputation and existence value of the Chamber of Commerce have indeed been overspent by some ill-intentioned guys, but you can't just ban it and insult it, at least in these years of turmoil, it silently guards the legitimate merchants in this territory." ”

But now it has become a blade for outlaws, threatening the authority of the rulers. Kenny frowned and turned to look at the old merchant who spoke, "I don't want to ban it either, but if it continues like this, the knights who swear allegiance to the Chamber of Commerce will turn into rebels at any time, and Nipur will never be at peace." ”

"That's what the Chamber of Commerce is all about, my lord. The old merchant continued in a calm tone, "The reason why Nipur has a chamber of commerce is precisely because of its turbulent situation, in the demon city where lords and armies are constantly changing, such a cavalry team is needed to stay out of the law, not to participate in disputes, and only exist for the safety of merchants, which is also the original intention of its establishment. ”

"But from today onwards, you don't need it anymore. Kenny denied in an unquestioning tone, "From now on, the Guards will take on all the duties of the Knights of the Chamber of Commerce, protecting you from strife and persecution. ”

"What if....."

"They will not participate in the war, they are only there to protect you. Kenny interrupted, "Also, you won't have to pay anything, and their pay will be paid by the Confederate forces." ”

"If ....."

"No ifs!I know what you're trying to say!" Kenny raised his voice deliberately, "From now on, Nipur will be the most peaceful shrine on the continent of Sumer!"

"Nozomi ..... I hope so, my lord. The old merchant stuttered, pursed his lips, smiled, and swallowed it back into his stomach.

"Now, on behalf of the Supreme Court of Justice of Nippur, I will pronounce your sentence!" Kenny walked back to the side of the steps and declared in the loudest voice, "Former Knights of the Chamber of Commerce!, in this incident, you have flouted the authority of the lords, tried to create a rebellion, fabricated facts, desecrated the oath of knights, and clashed with the Coalition forces!" He took a deep breath and swept his gaze over the nearly thirty knights kneeling down the steps, "On behalf of the god Namu and the Law Council, I pronounce your death sentence in the name of the lord!

A cold wind blew Kenny's voice far away, and the crowded plaza immediately became silent, and their faces showed surprised expressions, and they even wondered if there was something wrong with their ears.

That benevolent lord wants to put the surviving knights of the Chamber of Commerce to death on the spot?

Not only did the townsfolk under the stairs think so, but even Sersi felt that the lord's handling was a bit too extreme. Even if this group of knights tried to rebel, in the final analysis, they were only executors, and they deserved a more dignified death, rather than being beheaded in front of tens of thousands of people.

After a brief moment of thought, he raised his head and looked at the lord standing on the steps.

"Collar ....."

"Sercy?" Kenny preemptively spoke, "now that they're part of the Union Infantry Regiment, you're their commander. He paused, narrowed his eyes into slits, and his tone became cold, "What to do next, do you need me to teach you?"

Serci paused for two seconds.

He understood the meaning of Kenny's words, and the words that seemed to urge him were actually blame, and the lord was blaming him for not persuading this group of knights to surrender, if there were three hundred, or two hundred, or even a hundred people kneeling here, the lord would never give such an order.

Now, the lives of these thirty knights have become a victim of consolidating authority, and the lord needs to deter those knights of the Chamber of Commerce who did not participate in the rebellion, and some of the unscrupulous ones on the steps or in the crowd.

At this moment, Sersi suddenly found that he seemed to have learned to think like Alan.

He turned and walked over to the nearest chamber knight.

"Kenny Dalton! you can't do this!!" an old chamber knight roared in a hoarse voice, raising his jaw.

Sersi drew the sword of one of the guards. The sword glistened in the sunlight as he stepped up behind a knight and slowly pressed his blade against the man's neck.

"We are all knights of great merit! you have no right to decide whether we live or die!!" the knight seemed to feel the threat of death, and he tore his throat and roared, trying to break free of the guard's hands.

"Now you're the Alliance!" Kenny roared, "My mercy will only be reserved for law-abiding citizens!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sersi raised his blade, only to see a cold light slash across the knight's neck, and the crowd let out a cry of surprise.

The knight's head was like an apple detached from a branch, and it tumbled and jumped to the edge of the steps. His eyes were half-open as he watched blood spurt from his kneeling body, and seconds later, the headless corpse crashed to the ground.

"Brute, I curse the Dalton family to eternalβ€”"

As the curse came to an abrupt end, the second knight's head fell to the ground.

"Collar ..... Lord Lord, Great Lord Kenny, Savior of Nippur!" The third knight raised his head, "Please..... Please, don't kill me, I studied under the Arrant Sword Master, I'm the best of the Knights of the Chamber of Commerce, you-"

Before the third knight could finish speaking, Sersi swung his sword and cut off his head.

"What about you?" he walked up behind the fourth knight, "any last words?"

"I swear to the god Namu who is far away in the abyss!

Sersi sneered and swung his sword to cut off the head of the fourth knight. Then, the fifth, the sixth, and the seventh.....

At the same time, countless small murmurs arose, and those voices gradually grew louder, then neatly, and finally turned into powerful roars, and angry roars, which resounded through the square of 10,000 people.

"I swear to the god Namu who is far away in the abyss! We will always uphold honor, be kind to the weak, stand against the mighty, and sweep away all injustice with the sword in our hands! We will always keep our heroic, humble, and glorious souls, and fight for the unarmed merchants! )
