Chapter 165: Silent Resistance

The news that Manuda Plinz, the third largest family in Middle-earth and the current patriarch of the Princh family, known as the evil dragon, set off from Cold Mountain Harbor and headed for Nice also reached Alex.

Alex immediately sent instructions to Puyok, the head of the Medici Chamber of Commerce in Nice City: without offending Kevin Bell, he did everything possible to hand over the pharmacist named Pinault to Otto before Manuda arrived.

Choosing to solve problems in a gentle way and at the lowest cost has always been the Medici family's style of handling affairs, and this time is no exception.

After receiving the instructions, Pujock immediately rushed to the Bell Institute, but no matter how he explained, he could not convince "Master Kevin".

The next day, he went to the Princh Chamber of Commerce and had a secret conversation with Odo.

Ten days later, on the 19th of January, hundreds of knights and magicians of the Princh family, temporarily summoned from the Duchy of Ukeley and its environs, came to the lawn in front of the Bell Institute and issued an ultimatum to Donner: hand over Pino within a day, or they would rush in and rob him.

At this time, the Medici Chamber of Commerce in Nice was surprisingly quiet and completely out of the way.

This is the result of the secret conversation between Pujock and Odo: the Princh family themselves will come forward to put pressure on "Master Kevin", and once they are in Pino, the Medici family will intercede.

This is the best of both worlds they can think of - the two families can not face each other head-on, and the Medici family will not offend "Master Kevin" too much.

Half a day later, when the people in the research institute were panicking, an unexpected scene happened.

A strange knight came to the team of the Princh family, stuck his sword in the lawn at the entrance of the laboratory, and said loudly, "You have to enter from here." Unless you step over my corpse. ”

In front of the window on the fifth floor, Ruike asked curiously, "This is your old friend?"

Donner shook his head in confusion: "I don't know this man. ”

Not long after, Moen came up to Downer and reported that there was a pharmacist at the institute who knew him.

"Master, the Electton Knight is an instructor at the Knight Academy of the Duchy of Ukeley. ”

"Instructor, what is he doing here?" Donner was a little puzzled.

"He entered the Knight Academy at the age of sixteen through a knightly draft, before that. is a pauper. ”

"......I see," Downer mused, "but how could he have learned so quickly?"

"The news that the Princh family is going to the institute has been bad for some time. ”

Donner's brow furrowed, he admired this man's courage, but he alone could not stop so many knights and magicians.

But the strange thing is not over yet.

A short time later, another knight walked up to Upton and stuck his sword in the lawn, "Go through here." Unless you step over my corpse. ”

Since then, people have joined the bandwagon, and similar declarations have continued.

"So many knights, are they all from poor people?"

"Master......" Moen's eyes moistened, his lips trembled slightly, "I don't know these people......"

"I swear to be kind to the weak, I swear to fight rape...... I swear to fight for the unarmed......" Rick muttered suddenly.

"What?" Donner turned to look at her.

"Knight's Declaration, Teacher. Don't you see? This institute is the embodiment of chivalry. I think. That's what they're here for......" Reicor whispered back.

On the lawn downstairs, more and more people have gathered, from two or three people who were weak at first, to hundreds of people, but in terms of numbers, they are almost equal to the team of the Princh family.

in the institute. All the staff were standing in front of the window, and almost everyone had tears in their eyes.

Until that day, most of them had just felt like they were doing a well-paid job. There are even those who do not understand the decision of "Master Kevin" to hand over Pino.

But at this moment, they suddenly had an epiphany - it turned out that the place where they were and what they did was the spontaneous work of so many knights, who would rather sacrifice their lives to protect.

And standing opposite these knights who spontaneously gathered, those knights and magicians of the Princh family no longer had their original momentum.

However, it's not over yet.

I don't know when, an ordinary citizen of Nice City, stood beside those guard knights.

It was a middle-aged man who looked like an ordinary merchant, and he didn't shout the declaration of "step over my corpse" like those knights, but just walked over silently, and stood there with even a hint of restraint and uneasiness on his face.

Then, the real miracle happened.

Countless citizens of Nice have gathered from all directions.

No one called for it, and no one commanded it, men, women, and children from different walks of life in the city, put down their work, and slowly gathered from all corners of the city.

They silently crossed the ranks of the Princh family and stood beside the knights of the guard.

In front of a huge crowd of nearly 10,000 people who had gathered and were still expanding, the team of the Princh family was ridiculously thin.

Immediately afterward, more than a hundred pharmacists also walked out of the Bell Institute and stood at the end of the crowd.

In the small room on the fourth floor of the research institute, Pino and Doris, who saw this scene outside the window, hugged their heads and cried.

There has probably never been a day in the history of the city of Nice that has been so quiet.

There has never been a day when the mood is so surging that it is difficult to suppress.

The ordinary people who gathered were different from the knights, they didn't know what knightly declarations were, and they didn't come to protect the weak, most of them were weak themselves.

They had gathered because of the scattered rumors that had come out of this institute.

"40 million magic crystals were taken to build an orphanage...... Do it for a thousand years. ”

"Ways to increase food production...... The results are published free of charge...... This mission will not end as long as the Institute exists......"

......

Moen stood in front of the window, tears dripping silently, looking at these spontaneous people, he thought of another sentence from "Master Kevin": "Moen, don't swear, think of your grandmother, and your dead brother and sister, I'm sure you know what to do......"

......

Master Shaloman and Master Milan came to Nice only after hearing the news about the "Twin Divine Element".

The moment they arrived in Nice, they witnessed such a strange scene.

"What's going on?" asked the Milan master, holding an elderly vendor.

"The Prinzes want Master Kevin to hand over an innocent child. The vendor explained, still walking towards the lawn in front of the institute.

"Then what are you going to do?" asked the Milan master aloud.

"Go and protect the Medicine Saint," an old woman who walked by his side, seeing Milan's blank face, gave him a blank look before complaining, "Don't you even know the Medicine Saint Master Kevin?"

"Medicine Saint ......" Milan thoughtfully. Once upon a time, he himself was the most outstanding apothecary in Middle-earth, but no one had ever given him such a title. (To be continued.) )
