Chapter 129: Coronation

The morning in Seker City was a little cold, and the breeze made people feel a little chill on their bodies, Ryan tightened his collar, and slowly walked into the central square of Seker City behind John and the others.

In the eyes of the people of the imperial capital or Cassano, the people under Senate should live in misery, and they lived every day like a year, waiting for the imperial army to rescue them. But this was not entirely the case, at least Ryan saw a certain expectation in the faces of the guards around him, as if the people of the imperial capital had fought bloodily against the invading orcs in the hope that their offspring would have a good life.

This discovery made Ryan a little surprised, but when he substituted himself into the ordinary soldiers around him, he could easily understand the other party's thoughts, maybe Senate's rule was quite harsh, but the people under his rule were still barely able to eat, and in Senate's official propaganda, this was all because the imperial capital pressed on Seker City's heavy taxes dragged down the development of the entire territory, and in order to protect the people here from being enslaved by the imperial capital, the lord of Senate naturally had to maintain a huge army, and this military expenditure must of course be shared by the people here。

Now Senate declared his independence and was crowned king. In this way, he became the same existence as Fernando XIV, who was still a minor in the imperial capital, and the two different regimes were of course independent of each other, and the people of Seker City took it for granted that their lives would not be so difficult in the future, because they would no longer have to pay taxes to the imperial capital, and the king of that place had never been here anyway, and it seemed that their lives had never improved.

Thoughts like this are actually very marketable in southern cities or regions such as Cassano, Paradise of Liberty and City of Mochizuki, but the degree is different, at least from the perspective of human history, Seke City has never really submitted to the rule of the north, and the sense of resistance in this regard is naturally much greater, while Paradise of Freedom, Cities like Mochizuki City have always adopted a neutral stance, often choosing a kind of superficial submission, but in fact it is still going its own way, as for Cassano is already chaotic enough, before Lane unifies it, there is no real belonging, nothing more than a combination of interests.

Perhaps, it was not that Fernando I could not use force to force the south of the continent back then, but that he took into account the differences between the north and the south and chose a long path, but unfortunately when he died, the successor of the empire fell into an internal strife, and began to weaken the precious combat power of the Imperial Capital Magic Guild with his own hands. Ryan silently said to himself in his heart: "But now that the times have changed, no matter what the people in the south think in their hearts, we must work together to really fight against the undead army, so ......"

"Look, look, ah, here we are, you see, this army is so powerful, their armor is all the strongest full-body armor!" The mercenaries beside Ryan let out an exclamation sound, which made Ryan's mind return to the coronation ceremony in front of him, he looked up and saw a guard of more than a thousand people quickly entering from outside the square, every 10 steps they walked, there would be two guards standing on both sides of the road more than 20 meters wide, holding sharp long axes facing the crowd of spectators, the long axes they held were not so much weapons as a kind of honor guards, this weapon looked unusually bright outside, and even the white pheasant tail feathers on the helmet of the guard holding it could be clearly seen on the plane of the axe。

While the guards were slowly moving forward, dozens of men dressed as servants carried the bright red carpet and ran quickly down the central road, as if they had practiced countless times, and while maintaining a fast running speed, they could still skillfully pull and lay the rolled red carpet in the middle of the road.

A large group of young girls followed, dressed in white sleeveless bodice and carrying a large basket of flowers. Before the girls could enter, a strong fragrance of flowers came to their nostrils, and it turned out that the baskets in their hands were filled with the most delicate flowers, all of which had been picked an hour earlier, and Ryan could even see the dew on them.

"It's extravagant!" This is the only thought in Ryan's mind, compared to the wedding of the imperial capital Fernando XIII, Senate's coronation ceremony can be described as luxurious, it can be said that all the expenses that Ryan can imagine can be seen here, no wonder Senate is about to send a large order.

"Woo!" the majestic horn sounded, followed by dozens of huge war drums, accompanied by the beating of war drums, a high platform slowly drove towards the viewing platform in the central square. Ryan's forehead jumped slightly, for he had not found any trace of magic fluctuations from the high platform, but soon Ryan was dumbfounded, for he realized that this Senate was not magically manipulated, but carried by man.

The whole chariot is about 5 meters high, but its area is quite large, Ryan estimated a little, there are about 100 people standing on it, but there is nothing else on the entire chariot, only a throne is placed in the center, and Sennat, who is dressed in full costume, is sitting there at this time.

When Senat passed the red carpet, a rain of flowers suddenly appeared in the sky, which were flowers swayed by the girls on both sides of the road, and the air was naturally filled with a rich fragrance. This smell was quite familiar to Ryan, and he suddenly remembered that this smell was one of Faras's favorite perfumes, this perfume was a secret recipe unique to a certain nobleman in the imperial capital, and the perfume shop he opened was doing a booming business, and the price of each small bottle of perfume was quite expensive, but he didn't expect that this time they secretly smuggled this perfume to Seker City for money.

"Hey!hey!" "Hey, hey!" Senate's feet passed by Lane, and the sound of hundreds of people marching forward was heard from under the chariot, and now seeing this rare scene up close naturally made the others ecstatic, but Lane's nose suddenly itched, for he sniffed a slight smell of blood in the strong smell of perfume in the air, which was similar to his presence in Alexandria. The smell of blood in King Andrew's tomb was exactly the same, and he looked around to find out the origin of the smell of blood, but suddenly found that the smell had gradually disappeared.

Others may think that they have made a mistake, but the experience of Andrew's tomb is something that Ryan will never forget, so he will not doubt his feelings at all, but for a while, he can't find the source of the blood breath, which also makes Ryan a little strange, he casually looked around, hoping to find something to remind himself, when he turned his gaze back to the back of Senat, a thought suddenly surged in Ryan's heart, he finally knew where the smell came from- That's right, it's Senate from the throne at the top of the throne.
