Chapter 529: Giant City-State

The history of the Giant City is too long to verify, and people only know that the city, which occupies the only high ground in the western part of the Knight Federation, has been in the hands of the paladins for thousands of years. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Before the giant Jesse, it was called the Highland city-state, and the lord of the city was the paladin Clarmont, who was known as the butcher, but no one knows who the lord of the city was before Clarmont.

For more than a thousand years, the Giants have neither expanded nor been renovated, and there is no need for them, as early as Clarmont's hands, the city has been built into a city that is proud of the Knights' Federation, and even the Lion City in the middle of the Federation is dwarfed.

In fact, even if the giant Jesse had the heart to expand the city-state, there was no way to do it, because the walls of this majestic city were built along the edge of the high ground, and if this wall was to be extended outward, it would either have to move the earth and build a mountain to build the same six or seven hundred meters high ground, or it would have to give up the advantage of being condescending.

The former is too manpower-intensive, and the latter is even more impossible - under the gravity conditions of the Knights' Federation, the high ground means that it is almost impossible to breach, and no one will give up such an advantage.

In the limited historical record, Cramont the Butcher was a madman, and because of his existence, the commerce of the western part of the Confederacy was far behind that of the central part of the Confederation under the influence of Reinhardt - and this has not changed until now - and the people who wanted to kill him were scattered in every inch of the west, so that while he was alive, Cramont built the city then called Highland City into a completely impossible city to attack.

From the outermost part of the city to the city lord's mansion in the center of the city, there are a total of six city walls, so that the whole city takes on the strange appearance of rings after rings.

After the giant Jesse became the master, these city walls that cost great effort to build were naturally preserved.

Therefore, even if no one dared to stop Eliot for questioning, it would take him more than an hour to reach the City Lord's Mansion from the outermost part of the city through this checkpoint under the city walls.

Every time he made this trip, he felt like he was wasting his time in practice, but at the same time he enjoyed the way people looked at him.

Power is sometimes more important than power, and Elliot has long understood this, otherwise, as a knight of the twelfth level, how could he give up his free life and be willing to be subservient to the Giant City.

Through the stone doors, Eliot came to the door of the inner sanctum, and after adjusting his breath, he raised his hand to knock on the door.

"Come in......"

Before he could knock on the door, the city lord Jesse's trademark deep voice was already heard.

Elliot pushed the door in.

"How's it going? Is there any news?" Jesse retracted his sword and sheathed it in one go, as if a hand had pulled the sword back on the scabbard.

Eliot had spent a lot of effort on swordsmanship, but he still felt that the same movements were definitely not as smooth as Jesse's.

This is a realm that can only be attained by cultivating tirelessly for hundreds of thousands of years.

"The scouts sent out will come, and there will be no movement during the ten days of the rapid march. Elliot replied.

"Hmm......" Jesse smiled slightly and said, "What do the chambers of commerce in various places say?

The representative of the Silver Star Chamber of Commerce said that he had slipped his mouth, and it seemed that they had received a warning from the official channels of the Far North Country, and it had nothing to do with Marcus. Eliot said, "Do you want to arrest that representative and ask him about it?"

Jesse snorted coldly and said, "No need, these rumors will be destroyed immediately after today, as long as we don't mess up, let those dwarves make ghosts, we won't be able to make any tricks." ā€

"You're right!" Elliot smiled and nodded, "That'...... What about that old guy?"

"Didn't you say that you would be executed today?" said Jesse, a little impatient.

"Yes, my lord," Elliot hurriedly bowed, "Execution in City-State Square at noon today." ā€

After saying this, Elliot was about to retreat, but saw the city lord Jesse frown slightly, and he heard hurried footsteps outside the door.

Before the footsteps could get closer, Jesse pushed the door open and walked out.

"Great, sir, what do you think that?" said an elderly man, panting and panicking.

Elliot followed Jesse out of the hall, and before he could see the figure, he heard that the man was a member of the Presbyterian Church, and he couldn't help but feel a little bored.

In the Giant City-State, the Council of Elders was just an ornament, and Elliot suspected that if it weren't for the fear of being infamous as Crabmont the Butcher, Jesse had removed the Elder Council.

But these powerless old guys are not at all conscious, and they want to intervene in everything.

When Elliot cursed the old fellow in his heart, he didn't seem to realize that although all the members of the Elder Council of the Giant City-State looked old, they were all much younger than Elliot.

"What's the panic?!" Jesse scolded, and then looked up into the sky, only to see a few small black dots in the sky slightly south above his head.

He sighed lightly, slightly puzzled, this black dot should be extremely far away, with Jesse's otherworldly eyes, he couldn't see what it was.

"When did you find out?" asked Jesse coldly.

"Yesterday, yesterday evening, someone saw it, and it was ...... It was still ...... South, today, early this morning, is overhead...... "The old man's breath has not yet evened out.

"It's just a few strange birds, what's there to panic about?" said Jesse, looking at the sky.

"Great, my lord, the city, the city has been in chaos, some people say, it is divine punishment, divine punishment is coming......"

Elliot couldn't help but shake his head slightly, if it weren't for the presence of the city lord Jesse, he would definitely scold this old guy. How stupid it must be to link a few inexplicable black dots to the bullshit god punishment.

"Fool!" Jesse was no less angry than Eliot, and he yelled at the unsteady old man, "Who's talking this nonsense?!, go ahead, and arrest them all!"

Elliot wondered whether the city lord's order was directed at the old man or at himself, but he soon knew the answer to the question.

"What are you doing?!" Jesse shouted, turning his head to look at Elliot.

"Yes, my lord!" Elliot hurried out, glaring at him as he passed the other end of the presbytery.

Half an hour later, a small team of knights, led by Elliot, arrested more than thirty people in the lower city of the Fifth Ring Road.

In fact, Elliot didn't do any screening at all, even if he didn't arrive, the whole lower city was spreading these nonsense, once the heavily armored knight appeared on the street, no one would dare to talk nonsense again.

So, Elliot just picked someone who didn't look very pleasing to the eye and caught some. He was sure that after witnessing these heavily armored knights take away, there would be no bullshit rumors. (To be continued.) )
