Chapter Forty-Three: Lancaster's Aura
Seeing that everyone was silent and the atmosphere was depressed, Lancaster shrugged his shoulders mockingly, turned his head to William and said, "I didn't expect to meet His Excellency the Earl again." Here, I would like to congratulate His Excellency the Earl on his recovery. I think I'll have a long time in the future, and I'm not in a hurry, right? As he spoke, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
When William heard Lancaster say this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and look directly into the other's eyes, and a smile slowly appeared on his face. He sniffled before he smiled and said, "Well, of course I think we'll meet again in the future." ”
Lancaster nodded in satisfaction after seeing that the atmosphere in the audience was calmed by him. He looked at the old man carefully, and said nothing, but turned his horse's head and returned to his own guard.
Little Peter watched Lancaster walk back so plainly, and put the statue in his own home. Lancaster waved to the guards who had gathered over him to show that he should not worry, and then continued to let them destroy the beautiful village. And a group of Papal Knights could only watch from the sidelines, and there was nothing they could do.
Little Peter angrily questioned why Henry was looking like this, Henry smiled bitterly and shook his head, he didn't want to answer, but then he didn't know why he said: "See, this thing Lancaster." If you don't know how good he is, just look at the relaxed way people look now. He was surrounded by the Lancaster's most elite private soldiers. I'm just a small squad of the Knights of the Holy See, and the one on the other side is not fully staffed, although it is the Knights of Glory of the Holy See. Just a few people fight with him. ”
As if he was saying this, he felt that he might be belittleing himself too much, so Henry turned his head embarrassedly to avoid Little Peter's gaze. He muttered something in his mouth: "Don't worry, Lancaster also knows that there is no chance, he is venting, and he will leave when he has vented enough." ”
Peter Jr. watched helplessly, and the whole audience was suppressed by Lancaster's performance. He could only watch with the Holy See Knights as they wreaked havoc but could do nothing.
This feeling of weakness had never been so clear in his heart. Once again, he really understood the definition of power. He pursed his lips tightly and stared at Lancaster. He secretly thought in his heart that one day he must make this scumbag pay.
Just when everyone was helpless about Lancaster, an old man in a black robe slowly walked in the distance.
The old man's whole body was shrouded in black monk's robes, and his head was hidden in a black hood. I don't see any obvious features. He walked slowly, as if every step he took consumed a lot of his physical strength.
Lancaster suddenly looked back at the black-robed old man, he frowned tightly, and kept searching and analyzing in his mind, but there was still no impression of this person. He couldn't help but tilt his head and raise his eyebrows, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, thinking that this would be more interesting.
The black-robed old man finally walked behind the civilians who were protected by the knights led by the red-haired middle-aged man.
As he arrived, the knights with angry faces and the civilians weeping spontaneously gave way. Some of the civilians even looked excited, as if they would have hope as long as they had this man.
Lancaster waved his hand to stop his men from coming forward to stop the old man. He silently stared at the black-robed old man. Watch him come to himself.
The black-robed old man tilted his head slightly and looked at Lancaster on his horse. The cloudy eyes were half-open and looked hard for a long time before he said hoarsely: "Who is Your Excellency, this is the territory of the Holy See, only guests are welcome, but people like you are not welcome." ”
Lancaster looked at his hands nonchalantly, scoffing at the black-robed old man's words. After a while, he raised his chin and said lazily: "I don't know exactly what you're talking about, you don't welcome people like me." What's wrong with me? I'm weird, I feel sad in my heart. You see, the house they live in is dilapidated and old, and in such a beautiful place, it completely destroys the beauty. I kindly helped them demolish the house, and if they weren't grateful, how could they not welcome me. You don't need money to demolish your house? ”
Lancaster became emotional as he spoke, pointing to the civilians hiding behind the Knights of the Order, and to the almost tattered ruins that had been burned.
The black-robed old man couldn't help but open his mouth when he heard his words, but he couldn't say a word.
Lancaster ignored the reaction of the people around him when he heard his words, he waved his hand to himself and tilted his head and continued: "You see, I have now demolished these aesthetically spoiling rags, and they will definitely have to rebuild them." You have to instruct them, tell them what beauty is, and if you don't know, I'll be happy to help you. It's true. ”
The black-robed old man was stunned for a long time before he reacted, and he was amused by Lancaster's shamelessness, so he playfully replied: "Then the reconstruction cost, Your Excellency, will you pay for it?" ”
Lancaster blinked vigorously, perhaps because the sun was too hot in the air, and he reached for a white handkerchief and wiped his face. Then he casually threw the handkerchief to the ground. He watched the handkerchief flutter in the air before saying, "How is it possible, I didn't ask them for this, well, even if this reward is counted, how can I still pay for them to rebuild." Although I am a good person, I have a good temper and I like to be helpful, and I will not do anything that I will pay for. After finishing speaking, he shook his head vigorously, looking like he would never pay for it.
The black-robed old man really didn't want to listen to Lancaster's nonsense anymore. He said a few words impatiently to the red-haired man. The red-haired man reluctantly walked up.
He didn't dare to look at this, so Lancaster turned his gaze to the side and whispered, "Please don't embarrass us, Lord Lancaster." After all, this is one of the holy places of the Holy See, and it is not allowed to be offended by others. Please leave here with you. ”
Lancaster's face finally became serious, and he looked at the red-haired man seriously and then at Henry. He frowned and thought for a long time.
Lancaster didn't seem to want to leave like this, and he reluctantly looked at the black-robed old man. However, it may be that the time is not yet ripe to drink, and the Holy See completely tears its face. So he shouted to the guards to stop the vandalism. When the guards had gathered around him, Lancaster bowed gracefully at the horse, bowed to the black-robed old man, and said, "Well, since the Lord does not allow his pious servants to be seen, then I will take my leave." By the way, you must supervise these civilians to build houses that are aesthetically pleasing. ”
After saying that, he pursed his lips mockingly at the red-haired man, and led his men out of here slowly.
Little Peter looked at the other party unwillingly, his hands clenched tightly and his whole body trembled. He kept accumulating anger in his heart like that, and watched Lancaster get out of here. The old man seemed to know what he was thinking and said to little Peter: "This world is like this, you can do a lot of things if you are strong enough, and others can't say anything to you." ”
Little Peter nodded vigorously and said vigorously to the old man: "Don't worry, grandpa, I will become stronger." Definitely!
