Chapter 25: Deliberation

"Welcome to the Ethel Fortress!"

A hearty voice sounded, but everyone didn't feel warm. The nobles sat firmly on their horses, and looked at Earl Pierce like this, and no one was willing to bow their heads first, and the scene was embarrassing for a while.

Dare to have a hard top with the boss, which really opened Hudson's eyes. Obviously, the status of this world nobility is even higher than he imagined.

Even if he holds military and political power and has a good background, Earl Pierce is still a group of noble lords who have no choice but to rule.

"Your Excellency the Governor, I'm very sorry. Armor, please forgive us for being unreasonable! ”

It was Viscount Orland who spoke. It can be seen from his unbeaten expression that there is not the slightest apology.

As a nobleman who joined the battlefield halfway, Ilya Oran was not trapped, but this did not prevent him from fighting for rights and interests on this ground.

A group of small and medium-sized nobles, now showing such unity, is essentially to fight for their own rights and interests. As for seeking justice for the war dead, that is only a rhetoric on the surface.

The world of the aristocracy is cruel, and it is always strength that determines the distribution of benefits. In this game, the small and medium nobles and the big nobles are not equal in nature. If you want a piece of the pie, you can only unite.

As the alliance that was the worst in this war, it should be the happiest one to make a fuss, but due to its strength, it can only follow the flag.

It can be seen from the gloomy face of the knight of Chels that his heart is full of unwillingness. I wanted to speak several times, but in the end I chose to be silent.

The Great Knight is good, but that's only for the Lesser Nobles. The strength of the family is not strong enough, and they dare not offend Earl Pierce to death, so they can only give up the dominance to others.

For Hudson, this is clearly not a good thing. The coalition has not been able to gain enough say, which means that it will fall into passivity next.

It's a pity that his arms can't twist his thighs, and all his allies don't come out, and he, a new knight, can't bubble.

After staring at each other for a while, Count Pierce leapt down from the flaming lion and said indifferently, "The evil weapon Blood Moon Horn has appeared. You've learned how powerful it is during the day. ”

"Impossible!"

"With the Pope's seal and the Knights of Judgment guarding them, who can take the Blood Moon Horn from under their noses?"

Viscount Oran said incredulously.

Hearing this appalling news, Hudson nearly fell off his horse. Now he is not a little white who has just crossed over, and he is also thunderous about the name of the "Blood Moon Horn".

One of the few parchment scrolls in his library is dedicated to this thing.

Three hundred years ago, in order to quell the Blood Moon Catastrophe, the Coslow family alone killed thirteen knights, and many branches of the family went into decline.

After being sealed in the Papal States for three hundred years, he was able to come out to be a demon, and even more unfortunately, he even let himself catch up, and Hudson was speechless about this luck.

Glancing at his companions beside him, except for a few guys who read less, who were waiting for answers with a confused expression, the rest were all in a cold sweat.

Seeing that he was not the only one who made a fool of himself, Hudson was a little relieved. Even if the sky falls, the tall man will bear it first, and the matter of the "Blood Moon Horn" is obviously not something that he, a little knight, can control.

It seems that it is just the skeleton that will make trouble with evil weapons, but I don't know how the "Blood Moon Horn" came out of the Papal Kingdom and how it came to the southeastern province is the crux of the problem.

There are too many things involved behind this, and if you don't do it, it will trigger a new round of kingship VS clergy. Don't say that Hudson is a little transparent, and I'm afraid that a big man like Earl Pierce is also walking on thin ice.

"I hope it's fake, too, but you've experienced the daytime battles firsthand. The sound of the horn sounded and the soldier turned into a killing machine, is it similar to the legendary Blood Moon horn? ”

Earl Pierce's answer completely extinguished everyone's illusions. It was clear to everyone that there was going to be big trouble ahead.

If the rebellion cannot be extinguished in time, the entire southeastern province and even the Alpha Kingdom will have to be compensated, and no one will want to be left alone.

Unable to continue to find fault, everyone dismounted one after another and followed in the footsteps of Earl Pierce.

Now is not the time to make awkward noise, it involves the "Blood Moon Horn", and many words can only be said behind closed doors.

As soon as he entered the main hall, a young nobleman who couldn't hold his breath couldn't wait to ask, "Your Excellency, what does the church say?" ”

"How can it be so fast, I have just sent someone to deliver the news to the Kingdom and the Church respectively, and when the Papal States give an answer, it will be next month at the earliest.

Far water can't quench the thirst of the near, and we will have to solve the problem on our own in the short term, unless you are willing to lure the wolf into the house. ”

Pierce's answer made everyone's faces more and more ugly. The church and the Kingdom cannot be counted on for the time being, and there are not many options left for everyone.

Theoretically, they can also ask for help from the nobles of the neighboring provinces, but the aristocratic world is also divided into circles.

Internally, everyone struggles with each other for resources; But externally, the nobility of the southeastern provinces is a whole.

This is not a rhetorical whole, but a political alliance. In the political system of the kingdom, the nobles of the southeastern provinces were a group, and according to Hudson's understanding, it was the politics of the village party.

In the central government, everyone was politically united to fight against the aristocratic groups of other provinces; At the local level, everyone is also self-contained, serving as the emperor of the soil on their own territory.

There is no such thing as a free lunch in the aristocratic world, and everyone pursues an equivalent exchange. If you open your mouth to ask for help from the nobles of the neighboring provinces, you will inevitably pay a big price.

As a last resort, we won't take this step. No one wants to see neighbors reaching out to their own territory to point fingers.

"It is naturally not advisable to lure a wolf into the house. A mere skeleton would not be able to take a single step, and now the trouble was the Blood Moon Horn.

If this problem is not solved, the enemy will be able to consume us with a steady stream of armed cannon fodder. Everyone has seen the daytime battles, and how crazy the rebel soldiers are when they are controlled by evil weapons.

We paid the price of dozens of nobles killed, and we didn't leave the head of the enemy, just a bunch of worthless cannon fodder. ”

Viscount Oran said with a solemn expression.

The more you know, the more you know about awe. Compared with ordinary nobles, he knew significantly more about the "Blood Moon Horn".

"Don't worry too much, the Blood Moon Horn is powerful, but it has been sealed for more than three hundred years, and during this period, it has been continuously baptized by the Holy Light, and it has finally been affected.

If it were the Blood Moon Horn at its peak, the daytime battle would never be so easy. In legend, it was even possible to transform corpses into undead spirits to continue the fight.

As long as we are fast enough to not give the enemy time to accumulate strength and feed the evil weapons, the situation can be saved......"
