Chapter 113 / The good son of the Silver Rose family

With the sword unsheathed, HC-XIII raised the muzzle of the gun and breathed a tear of remorse that was steaming, and pointed at Abel beside him: "Father Abel, now it's your turn." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Faced with a super-large caliber automatic hand cannon that even the Blue Knight's Wind Magic Shield could penetrate in one blow, Abel subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of spit, but he still tried to struggle: "Does Sir Evan really understand what he is doing? Isn't his approach too cruel? There are a lot of neutrals and innocents among them?!"
"Father Abel, I repeat, I have only one bullet left in my pistol. The long reddish-brown hair fell down, obscuring half of HC-XIII's face, but the jeweled pupils shimmered with a very beautiful red sheen.
If you don't obey the order, I'll kill you in the next moment.
That's probably what Skarin's words mean.
Abel's smile was bitter, really, very bitter, and he nodded, "I understand." β
Turning, he stood in the spare seat at the back of the viewing platform, looking at the nobles who were looking up at him with their mouths wide open, barely looking away because of Skarin's stunning slaughter performance.
"O gods...... Please forgive me for my sins......" Abel closed his eyes gently, and the next moment, when he opened them again, his eyes had turned a blood color that was even redder than Scala's.
"Ladies and gentlemen!"
The silver-haired priest's long hair fluttered through the air, and one of the most brutal and efficient execution orders in the history of the Southridge was to be ordered.
"Don't you think that in times of crisis like this, you ought to be loyal to the Duke of Ferdinand, take up arms, face the enemy, and protect the Duke!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then just when Achebert in the crowd subconsciously wanted to laugh at the stupidity of this persuasion, he was suddenly blinded by a thought that involuntarily rose in his heart-
"Yes, why don't I protect the Duke? The Duke is still in the smoke, how can we, as the nobles of Nanling, abandon the Duke and flee alone?"
The pupils of their eyes were full of blood, and the nobles turned around and raised their weapons stiffly, but their faces were full of hideous murderous intent.
"For the sake of the Duke, kill all those Nanling pigs!"
The crowd of pigs began to charge, turning over the seats, breaking their teeth, like a herd of galloping fat pigs, rolling and crawling, rushing towards the heavy mist in the distance without hesitation.
Then, being swallowed by the white giant beast in an instant, he didn't even burp a single one.
The moment the attack took place, the guards around Feldnan shouted, "Protect the Duke!"
Seven Black Knights and 32 White Crows protected Feldenand almost instantly.
These loyal knights of the Guard had no regard for the lives of others, and for them, only Ferdinand was the only one they had to protect.
The aimlessly thrown short spear whistled through the crowd, and a white crow swordsman heard the cry, and subconsciously raised his long sword, and was nailed to the pillar by the short spear that crossed his chest.
Wu spat out a large mouthful of blood, he was not dead yet, and the sound of the miserable howl was so terrible that someone rushed over and cut his neck with a knife, regardless of the danger.
"Be careful! it's wolf smoke!" and in the face of the billowing dragon smoke, the white crow swordsman at the front only had time to shout a word, and then was swallowed up by the twilight mist.
Then, after a sudden scream, he was never seen to withdraw.
"Boom!" a huge wall of fire instantly opened, separating the mist from the crowd.
"Master Arut!"
Amid the excited shouts of the swordsmen, the red-haired old man slowly stood up, and he nodded lightly at Ferdinand: "Lord Duke, let the old decay come and burn the enemy." β
β...... Burn the truth of all things......" Feldenand did not stand up, he looked at the wall of fire that separated the twilight, and said lightly.
Yes, the magic smoke of the dragon smoke feeds on mana, but that is only relative, while feeding on the mana, the dragon smoke can also be stirred by the magic power, and as long as the strength of the mana output is much greater than the speed at which the wolf smoke spreads in the mana flow, then it can still block the spread of the wolf smoke - as long as the burned elemental structure spreads faster than it spreads.
And as a fire magister at the pinnacle of the high level of truth, it would be absolutely ridiculous to say that Arut couldn't stop a mere puff of wolf smoke.
Unlike Adair's truth, the truth of Arut, who was born as a military mage, is very simple, just one word "burn".
The sheer heat and flame temperature can instantly turn everything you touch into plasma, simple and pure, but powerful.
Just like Arut's character, he is straightforward and unscrupulous.
As it is now.
"Is it really good that you are still sitting here now, Grand Duke?" After releasing the wall of fire that soared into the sky and blocking the fog outside, Arut asked Feldnan with a slight owe to his body.
β...... I'm here to see what kind of people are so bold as to attack me. Felder sat in his seat, holding his arms in the water, unmoving.
Arut shook his head slowly: "No, Grand Duke, I mean, is it really okay for you to sit here?
Feldnan slowly raised his head and glanced at Arut, "Sounds like the master already knows the identity of the attacker?"
β...... Where, I'm just guessing if there will be any surprises today. Arut shook his head slowly, "After all, if it were me, if I had any plans against the Grand Duke and the Prince, I would definitely not let go of this day." β
"Even if there are the most outstanding elites of the Lingnan Ridge gathered around me?" Feldnan asked rhetorically.
"Grand Duke, you're laughing again, these moths, how can they be the name of the elite of Nanling, hahaha!" Arut grew up, "In my opinion, people like your son and the so-called 'Four Heroes of Nanling' and the New Model Army around him are the real elites of Nanling, and where the future is, right?!"
"Look, Grand Duke!" Arut waved his arm and pointed at Feldenand's side, "Now around you, apart from me and your guards, have there ever been so-called Southridge elites rushing over to protect you?!"
"......," Feldenand was silent, "if the master can see it so clearly, why is he willing to go along with those moths of the crescent moon?"
"......," Arut was silent for a moment, "Grand Duke, it's not that our Flame Fata originally intended to oppose the little duke, it's just that your noble prince is unwilling to give us a way to live. β
Feldnan was a little surprised: "How do you say this?"
"Grand Duke, do you know how many times has the price of Nanling's fire-based magic materials increased during the nine years that the Little Duke has been in power?" said Arut slowly, "Seven hundred times...... That's a whole 700 times. β
"......" Ferdinand was taken aback, he didn't expect to turn so much at all.
"The little duke, he used your authority to monopolize the output of all fire-based magic materials in the entire Nanling to make the so-called artillery and the big workshop. Arut continued, "Nanling was originally an export area for all kinds of magical materials in the empire, but after the little duke implemented the reform of the large workshop system, it became the largest import area of magic materials in the empire, and all kinds of magic materials that no one cared about on the market originally went from a hundred kilograms of gold coins ten years ago to the point where they are now priceless, all thanks to the little duke. β
"The mages of the military department and the technical department of the new model army are not used up with all kinds of magic materials, and after the experiment fails, they can be reused by throwing them to the workshop, while we, the mages who are supernumerary of the military system, can only secretly buy the secondary and failed products used in the factory from the second-tier dealers to refine and decompose them......"
"And the alchemy products that used to sell hundreds of silver coins as long as they were made casually have become unsustainable due to the impact of the big workshopsβ"
Arut said slowly: "Do you know that last year, there were less than ten apprentices who entered my Flame Mage, and their quality was completely incomparable to those mage apprentices who entered the military department?"
"Grand Duke, since the little duke is so desperate, then don't blame me for being unkind. Arut stood in front of Feldnan and said categorically.
Feldinand closed his eyes slightly, "I see, Master Arut. β
"In that case, then you can fight with Evan Ian, I won't stop you, even if you kill him, I can promise to leave a line of inheritance for your flame method. β
Arut took a step back sharply, his face full of astonishment: "You, Grand Duke!?"
Since he dared to have a showdown with Feldnan now, he didn't really have any intention of breaking up, but just hoped that Feldnan could look at the old relationship for many years and leave him a way to live, but he didn't expect that he would get such an unexpected answer.
Arut couldn't help but laugh angrily: "Okay! Okay! Is this your answer?"
"My method of fire has served the Silver Rose family for fifty years, but it ended up being such a rabbit and a dead dog?!"
"I have three long-cherished wishes in life. There was no shame on Ferdinand's face, "Kill Ulysses, avenge my father, destroy the rebel party in Nanling, return the people of Nanling to peace, find out the murderer of Vicky, and wipe out his nine clans." β
"Your Flame Tower has been going through fifty years, and such a huge spell resource as Nanling has not been able to destroy Ulysses, and Evan Ian has helped me with two of my life's long-cherished wishes, who do you think I will support?"
β...... Okay, in that case, I'll go and kill Evan Ian now, and then the Flame Tower line, you can destroy it all, Grand Duke!"
"No, at least not yet. However, Feldennan sat in his seat, and without stepping back, an invisible realm was drawn in front of him, half a step was lava, half a step was calmβ
"Before I go, you old fellows, don't try to hurt Evan a hair. β
"You!" Arut glared at Feldnan, and finally forced a few breaths, and looked at Feldnan deadly, "Okay...... Even if I don't make a move, it will be difficult for your son to survive the attack of the sword of revenge, right?"
"I think you should care more about your allies, Master, than about Evan Ian's situation. Feldnan looked up, smiling for the first time.
Arut was stunned, and only then did he notice a faint sound coming from the other end of the air distorted by the flamesβ
"For the sake of the Grand Duke!
"......" Arut didn't know what happened to make those nobles who spared their lives so desperate, but judging from Feldenand's words, it was definitely inseparable from Evan Ian.
β...... Grand Duke, you really gave birth to a good son......"
"Yes......" Feldenand nodded slightly, "Then I will ask the master to take care of you more in the future." β
Said exactly the same sentence as before. (To be continued.) )
