Chapter 70 Accusations
For the next three days, Richard and Reilly watched Lawrence treat White Night's injuries. The old man removed her internal organs and cut off the parts that had been contaminated by the forces of chaos, but did not break the connection between these organs and her body.
The two watched intently, taking every detail into their minds before thinking about it.
Finally, Richard sewed up White Night's chest cavity under Lawrence's direction, which ended the long and horrific treatment.
White Night fell into a deep sleep, and Richard covered her body with a sheet, and then walked outside with Reilly.
"Reilly......
"What's the matter?"
"Bai Ye is already strong enough to leapfrog and kill the legend, but how can she live more and more unhappy?"
"No matter how much power you have, there will be things that cannot be changed. Reilly looked up at the sky and said, "If you don't want to be like her...... No, you're sure to become like her. ”
"Maybe. ”
"In my opinion, it's not the most painful thing. Reilly shook his head and said, "Think about whether you have the ability to help them if one day, the people you value become like this." ”
The two stayed in the city of the sun for another day, and after making sure that Bai Ye's body was fine, they left the land of dusk.
Richard returns to the floating island of Akmund to attend to business, while Rayleigh enters the portal to Faro.
Farrow was calm, but the Sequoia Kingdom was a little lively. Whenever the House of Lords was in session, the nobles had to lash out at Richard.
After the end of the war against the invaders, Richard and his close allies were so weakened that even their loyal Duke Blue Wolf was killed in battle. In the minds of many nobles, the balance of power between the royal family and Richard had changed, and the benefits of the Bloodstained Lands were simply too tempting.
Thanks to the efforts of Gangde and Minotaur, the bloodstained land was no longer full of horse bandits and slave hunters, and the caravan advanced at a much faster pace, and the escort force was reduced to about one-third of the original. As a result, the profits of trading through the Avenues of Fortune have more than tripled! The pie is big enough to make people lose their minds.
Several nobles now jumped onto the podium every day, roaring hoarsely, indicating that the Bloodstained Lands should belong to the entire Redwood Kingdom. In their opinion, Richard was just a small viscount, and he was simply not qualified to occupy such a vast land.
Of course, the fact that Richard conquered the entire bloodstained land as a pioneer knight was ignored by the nobles, and he would definitely not be able to produce a confirmation of the title anyway.
However, no matter how many people appealed and clamored for war with Richard, no one paid attention to them. The louder the shouting in the house, the fewer troops they have, and some of them cannot even take out hundreds of the old, weak, sick and disabled. Just these people, they still want to go to war with Richard?
Although the nobles were very jealous of the huge interests in Richard's hands, they still hoped to solve the problem by peaceful means and come up with a new distribution plan. If the goal can be achieved at the negotiating table, who wants to use a knife?
What's more, many nobles in the kingdom have personally experienced the bloody battle against the invaders. The strength of the Norland Expeditionary Force was far beyond the imagination of the nobles, and when they charged towards Richard's fortress, the Faro warriors along the way fell in pieces, some were even split in half with a single sword!
And when Richard's descendants were dispatched, they were able to form a stalemate with the invaders, and even gained the upper hand in the contest of elite troops! The knight regiment that Richard dispatched at the end was even more shocking, and in the history of Faro, there had never been a precedent for a strong man of this level to fight in a group.
No one wants to face the charge of that order, including the royal family.
However, while Richard and Reilly were learning the craft from Lawrence, a new twist took place on the plane of Faro.
A young nobleman stood on the podium, he looked so nervous that he didn't even dare to look at the audience below, and even his voice was dry. After taking the stage, the young nobleman took out a thick stack of manuscript paper and prepared to read it.
Seeing his clown-like appearance, the audience suddenly burst into laughter. However, as he stumbled in his speech, the House of Lords gradually fell silent, and the nobles looked at each other with a look of horror on their faces.
The core of the young nobleman's accusation is only one: Richard is also an alien invader, and he is from the same place as the army that just brought havoc to Faro!
The nobleman then listed a number of evidences, such as the fact that the equipment of Richard's core force was very similar to that of the invaders, and the combat effectiveness of both sides was also at the same level. For example, the conversation between Richard and the leader of the invaders, although no one can understand the contents, it can be seen that the two sides know each other.
The young nobleman read the accusation with trepidation, and listed a lot of trivial evidence, although there were many things that were strong and reasonable at first hearing, but when all the contents were taken together, it was quite unfavorable to Richard.
In the end, the young nobleman said that he would show stronger evidence in half a month to prove that Richard was an intruder
There was a dead silence in the House of Lords, and all eyes fell on the young nobleman, which made him even more nervous.
Everyone knew that the young nobleman was just a puppet of the voice, and that the mastermind behind it wanted to kill Richard. However, the crux of the matter is how to eliminate Richard. If the people here had a way, they wouldn't be sitting in the House every day.
Richard's elite knights are already terrifying, and their equipment is even more luxurious than that of the royal Praetorian Guard! You must know that the Praetorian Guard only has 500 people, but Richard has thousands of knights!
Even if Richard's strength was greatly damaged after the battle, Reilly's puppet army did not appear in that decisive battle, so naturally he would not suffer losses. While there have been many malicious speculations that Richard and Reilly have fallen out, that doesn't mean they can avoid that terrible puppet army in the middle of the war.
In fact, most of the nobility did not believe that Richard was an invader. In such matters, the most effective basis for judgment is the oracle. While this is a good excuse, it is nothing more than an excuse without the church's assurance.
Although there will be great benefits to eliminating Richard, everyone knows that the first fool to rush forward will be left with no bones.
As a result, the House of Lords was rarely cold.
The young nobleman's accusations quickly spread throughout the Redwood Kingdom, as well as to Reilly, who had just returned to Faro.
Upon hearing this, Reilly smiled happily, and he immediately rushed out of the Blue Water Oasis with the puppet army.
In the recent Battle of the Invaders, Raymond and Richard were both defeated, and the Faroe countries suffered heavy losses, but Rayleigh made a lot of money during that time.
At the beginning, a total of twenty-four Sanctuary powerhouses and eight archmages had fallen from the warring parties, and their bodies all fell into the hands of Rayleigh and became the materials for him to make the dragon god armament. In the three months following the battle, Asha's Tears worked at full strength, transforming the corpses into powerful Sun Knights and Magical Mages. In addition, the Knights of Dawn of the Dawn of Reilly has also expanded to one hundred and forty people, and the number of puppet knights has exceeded the five thousand mark!
This is an extremely terrifying force, even if it is put in Norland, it is enough to step on the ordinary marquis family.
Reilly took fifty puppet knights, thirty jungle warriors, and ten golden-robed mages, and then used the puppet knights to make up five hundred. In addition to this, he also pulled in Clark of the Dark Sanctuary, as well as the spokesmen of the Three Goddesses, Philen, Xiyu, and Fermi. If the Church does not show some attitude, how will it recruit believers in the future?
With such a lineup, it is completely possible to go sideways in the Sequoia Kingdom. Even if he was surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, Reilly was confident that he would defeat the other party, so he directly killed the capital of the Sequoia Kingdom, Shanlin City.
