26.Lion King's Banquet (10)

Sherlock sat quietly in the main seat of the banquet hall, the largest of the castle, and the original royal hall had been renovated since Sherlock's arrival in the country.

Outside, Canaan and his party from afar followed more and more people and reporters through layers of screening at each checkpoint, and finally only the king of Canaan and the seven people he led slowly walked into the banquet hall, Igna led the way in front, but from the sweat on his forehead, he knew that the young king in front of him was still worried about what was about to happen in this banquet, and there were four high-end forces in this hall at the moment, Julius, Evan Xiu, Smollett, and the four-ring powerhouse Golden Lion Sherlock。

The King of Canaan walked in the front, walking slowly, although he looked very old, like an old man who was silently thinking about the end of his life, but the temperament of the superior who had lived on the throne for more than sixty years, even Sherlock stared at him closely, perhaps because of his respect for the oldest ruler in the world, or perhaps he wanted to see the answer he wanted in the King of Canaan.

But Sherlock observed for a while and got a definite answer from King Canaan, that is, King Canaan showed that he was just an ordinary old man, he didn't even develop his own cosmic star, he was not even a cultivator at all, just an ordinary wise king, Sherlock shook his head, King Canaan is an ordinary person, almost the whole world knows it, just like Igner, he is also an ordinary person.

Therefore, Sherlock did not stop at the Canaan King Barry Muir Xiu, but looked at the seven people behind him, among which the eldest prince and Marshal Canaan were parallel, followed by the second prince and the third prince, and then the four fake ministers of state, although they were all masters of cultivating the cosmic star, but in Sherlock's eyes, he didn't care much about these people.

Sherlock was watching them, and Canaan was watching Sherlock, and from the moment they entered the banquet hall, they didn't look at the luxurious decorations in the hall and the green and blue flags fluttering on the walls, and the angel of peace on the ceiling was ignored by everyone, and the goal of all of them was Sherlock Field, who sat on the throne like a majestic mountain.

The King of Canaan behaved calmly, but Smollet and the few people behind him were facing a Five Holy Monarch figure head-on for the first time, and it could be seen that cold sweat was flowing down their cheeks, and they were as nervous as Igner, but when they held the consciousness of death, everyone felt a cool breeze blowing, and it seemed that aside from the initial nervousness, it was no big deal to face the golden lion at the moment.

"Your Excellency King of Canaan, Barry Muir Hugh!" Sherlock stood up from his throne and looked down at the King of Canaan below.

"One of the Five Holy Monarchs, the Golden Lion, Sherlock Field!" the Canaanite King's voice, though hoarse and old, was so clear and calm that it was impossible to tell from his voice what his mood was.

"So please be the king of Canaan!" Sherlock stretched out his hand to invite them to sit down at the long tables on either side, and behind them were luxurious and noble jeweled chairs, which was almost a rare example of Igner's few treasured works of art in his castle.

Soon the table was filled with delicacies, including Shylock, who sat on the throne, and in front of him, a long table, and at the other side of the lower angle sat Ignar and Julius, each with a beautiful maid pouring wine for them.

The moment everyone sat down, their glasses were filled with red wine.

It was the eldest princess Vicky who poured the wine for Sherlock herself.

"What are you doing here!" Sherlock asked softly.

"I'll pour you wine!" Vicky said flatly, a smile on her lips.

Sherlock was about to let her go, but the King of Canaan, who was sitting below, was the first to speak: "Your Excellency Sherlock, since I saw the news that suddenly shook the world half a month ago, I have admired your name very much!"

"Where, where, I am also very happy and proud to be admired by the King of Canaan!" Sherlock said flatly.

"I don't know what Your Excellency Sherlock thinks of the country of Canaan!" King Canaan then asked, his expression was extremely serious, as if he had never changed any expression since entering this hall, and Sherlock was very surprised by the cold and serious attitude of the other party, and it seemed that the other party really intended to see this place as a battlefield.

"I haven't been to Canaan, more in books about world history, or in the history books established by the World Alliance government, and in some travel guides, I have seen Canaan in some magazines, for this Canaan country should be regarded in my mind as a beautiful scenery, the four seasons are like spring, and a big country bordering the sea and land, according to the records of the establishment of the World League government, more than a hundred years ago, the government invited Canaan to join the World Alliance government many times, but they were all rejected by the Canaan king more than a hundred years ago!" Sherlock said.

"The old man has been in power for more than sixty years, and I reached the throne when I was thirty years old, but I am indeed the youngest of my brothers, and now after so many years, the brothers and sisters born to my mother have passed away, and the King of Canaan who refused to join the World Alliance more than a hundred years ago is also the father of his youth!" King Canaan said calmly.

"Haha, Lord Barry Muir is the oldest ruler, close to a hundred years old, I guess he must have gone through the first turbulent period of the World League government!" Sherlock asked.

"No, I was born at a time when the world war was coming to an end, and the World League government was created one hundred and thirty-five years ago by the most powerful economy, technology, armed forces, and so on in the world...... Thirteen countries are composed, for this huge organization, any country that resists him is an enemy, as long as the land favored by the king is attacked, it can become the territory of his own country, so one hundred and thirty-five years ago, with the establishment of the World Alliance, that war almost swept the entire world, and even the country of Canaan was also involved, this world war lasted for more than thirty years, that is to say, the first thirty years of the World Alliance government was spent in war!" King Canaan said slowly.

"The King of Canaan knows a lot, but as far as I know, although the original Canaan Kingdom did not join the World Alliance government, but it has made a lot of efforts in the war of resistance, it is said that during that period, the Canaan Kingdom was one of the few powerful countries that could fight against the government, but now so many years have passed, the original thirteen powers have now become a behemoth that deters the ruling world, and although the current Canaan Kingdom can compete with the power countries, it is absolutely impossible to defeat the World Alliance Government, which is a subsidiary organization composed of thirteen countries, if your father did not refuse the proposal to join the government more than a hundred years ago, I'm afraid that you have already become the fourteenth power nation in the world by now!" Sherlock paused and said in a low voice, "When I see His Excellency Barry Muel Xiu, you will not be called King of Canaan, but will be honored as 'King of Power'!"

Several members of Canaan's party were angry, but Sherlock's aura was so great that everyone was very mentally suppressed.

"Aha, Lord Sherlock, you're too young to travel through the world at all!" King Canaan burst out laughing, as if he had thought of something interesting, and Sherlock's face began to slowly turn cold, and even Vicky, who was standing beside him, felt that the atmosphere in the air was peaceful.

"I'm glad that my father didn't agree to the invitation of the World League government, because he avoided the people of Canaan from losing their freedom and struggle, from making my people slaves, and from the filthy magnates from covering the eyes of our Canaanite leaders!" said King Canaan suddenly standing up and pointing at Sherlock. Sherlock, you were born into a high-ranking political family in Renox, so you haven't experienced the life of a commoner, and in my country or in a small country like Kerazon, if the people are dissatisfied with their king's rule, they have every right to overthrow their own king, so we have been desperate to make our people live a perfect life!"

Igna kept his head down and didn't look into the eyes of King Canaan.

"But once a kingdom joins the government of the World Alliance, or is like the thirteen powers, then after the king has seized great power, even if the people plan to rebel against the harsh rule of the king, the army of the alliance government will immediately come out and suppress it, and the people will have no weapons of independence and freedom, so they can only live like slaves among the ruling class of the country!" said King Canaan.

"Fart! Renox is the most powerful economic power in the world, and the people of Renox have only lived a prosperous life under the leadership of His Majesty Momon!" This time it was Julius who stood up angrily and blamed the King of Canaan.

"Well, that's just the surface, and the people are only satisfied physically, but their spirit and soul have always been like a crippled soldier, they lack a security, a security called freedom, and even if one day they suddenly find that the rule of the last gate suddenly becomes brutal, they will not be able to resist because of the existence of the king and the government of the World Alliance, and then their souls can only shed blood and tears, just like the same power." The Shang Dynasty', where the people lived a miserable life under the reign of the king!" shouted the king of Canaan.
