The Amber Sword: Act 140 witch Rebellion III

The Kirrlutzian mentioned by Flo is naturally a group of Kirrlutz South noble headed by Orkens Count. Since arriving in Fattan Port, these South noble were initially considered to be regular, probably because they knew that already was tied to Brando. On a ship, the army of Gorgon Ravine and Leonin in the south may capture Evergreen Aisle at any time, and at this time, does not hold on to the fleet of Aouinian.

Coupled with the news of the civil war in the Vanquer area, the queen split Holy Cathedral and suddenly claimed to be Dragon of Darkness' inheritance. It also made them feel helpless. The deep-rooted faith for thousands of years has collapsed. Anyone can accept such a thing. Nope. Therefore, at the beginning, Orkens Count and the others was considered to be enemies, and low grade officials who managed the Fattan port honestly, on the one hand, actively contacted noble in the north to try to find an alliance to resist the mad Queen.

But as the battle went down, noble The Queen's march couldn't even resist, and she was defeated again and again, as if almost instantly, the new Holy Cathedral The army already At the door of Ludwig, although not yet with Heizhi legion Played against, but in the situation already Takes a great advantage. Plus Veronica Under house arrest, Qingzhi legion Delay in responding to the north nobles "Uprising" so that soon in the front of Fattan, people often see from frontline Defeated noble Disabled soldiers.

Various versions of rumors have also spread. First, Mantle Bay's noble was defeated, and then the queen swooped down and suddenly appeared a few strange forces. Today, the Senia werewolf broke into Mott Habib, and tomorrow mountain people pledges allegiance. It is even more rumored that even Azure Spear has arrived in the hands of Her Majesty the Queen, and there are various signs that the strength of the Imperial Emperor is increasing at a rate that is visible to the naked eye, as if at first it was still a lonely The Silver Queen. In an instant, already occupied a third of the empire's sphere of influence.

The new Holy Cathedral at this time, already is not to ignore -- or even a suffocating behemoth.

In this way, the southern nobles, whose position was not strong enough, immediately began to produce shake, but this shake was only circulated in the lower layers until the Leonin and Gorgon Ravine army suddenly gave them a fatal blow. . In fact, Orkens Count and the others has no real feeling for the civil war in the north. Because Brando closed the port tightly, almost all of the first-hand news they received came from rumors. Such rumors can be heart-warming, but it is difficult to say how much real feeling can be produced.

However, these nobles's fears of the southern Leonin and Gorgon Ravine troops --, especially the Gorgon Ravine army, are deeply ingrained. They have witnessed firsthand how that army destroyed their homeland and expelled them from the land of one's own. Let them go into exile like refugees. Even have to send someone under the fence.

If it wasn't for the Gorgon Ravine army that threatened the Evergreen Aisle on the east all the time, why should they be stuck here?

But at this moment, Leonin and Underground Thanes have clearly stated the Dragon of Darkness's downturned position, and the situation has become a bit subtle. Who is Dragon of Darkness right now? Her already is not only the Miirna's emperor thousands of years ago. She is still The Silver Queen, Kirrlutzian. Although nobles cares about faith, in the final analysis, it is more about the identity of their empire citizens. This is the guarantee of their status, the source of pride. Life-saving is of paramount importance, but status and power are also what they seek.

Before that, these two options were both fish and bear's paw, but as the situation changed, nobles, who had fled to the south, suddenly found that the answers to these two options seemed to be gradually merged into one.

To save your life and status. How to do?

At least for the moment, it is only possible to surrender Her Majesty the Queen. In any case, she is at least the Emperor of Kirrlutzian, although she said that she split Holy Cathedral. But it can be considered orthodox. So the subtle changes in the minds of these fleeing noble quickly, even including Orkens Count, these upper noble began to gradually fall to the capitulation. At this moment, the disadvantages of Brando as Aouinian are particularly prominent. Before that, he could also claim these nobles in the name of faith. Holy Cathedral of Fire is a religion that crosses the country and has been ingrained for thousands of years. Aouinian and Kirrlutzian although There are huge differences, but they have at least something in common.

That is, they have the same faith.

In the name of religion, people often ignore the differences of the country.

But this reason will soon be untenable, because after the threat of life disappears, the Protestantism established by The Silver Queen is not so unacceptable. The originally difficult decision in this war has quietly turned into reform. Still old-fashioned, people seem to avoid the identity of The Silver Queen Dragon of Darkness intentionally or unintentionally.

Not really Flo Say, Brando It ’s also clear that the situation is ultimately due to the north noble No legitimacy at all, after all The Silver Queen Regardless of her status, she was at least her Majesty the Emperor of the Empire -- Although she split Holy Cathedral , But did not betray the empire. To put it simply, the woman intentionally placed the king's power over the patriarchal power. noble It ’s not unacceptable, except for those Holy Cathedral of Fire No one is willing to survive the queen on this issue, especially at the risk of his life.

North noble stands on the opposite side of Her Majesty's Queen because they are the supporters of the eldest son of the emperor, but these exile noble in the south have no such concerns, even if some of them are Holy Cathedral diehards, but now Holy Cathedral is divided into two. Who is loyal to?

So the beginning of this war was not on the stand of justice and evil, light and darkness. This is just a guise forget it/that's all. This is a civil war. Brando has always been clear about this, although Previously he flickered Orkens Count for this reason. They are so long as a period of time, but those empire nobles are not stupid, and it is time to react.

It's time to give them a dose of fierce medicine, Brando thought, he quietly listened to the Flo statement, in fact, what wild elf girl was about to say was almost the same as what he imagined. -- was at least not as good as the civil disturbance of witch. Unexpectedly, even he felt that these southern nobles were a little too slow, maybe they were scared by Gorgon Ravine people or some other reason. When he wanted to come, they should have been in trouble for a long time.

But he is not worried. When Flo finishes speaking, he will not hesitate to ask, "So what are they doing now?"

wild elf girl froze slightly, couldn't help frowning. In her opinion, the current situation was caused by the Lord Thane's negligence in front of her. Since these days, Brando has neither strictly controlled the news nor prevented the nobles who fled from the front to enter the port --. It is only forbidden that they leave forget it/that's all -- and the nobles of Kirrlutzian also lacks constraints, and can even be said to be inactive, except to maintain the port Outside of normal operation, it is probably to send a messenger to contact the northern noble, and the rest is to study the useless stone all day.

As soon as I thought about this, Flo raised a heartfelt hate for iron and steel. I feel that this Lord Thane in front of me has been idle all day since the establishment of Fir Tree Shire. Although the other party's Aouine has achieved a lot of work, it is only for her good luck forget it/that's all, or that Amandina and Romaine Young Lady are capable, otherwise the territory Whether it works properly is still a question. I thought that after he became the kingdom Count, he also served as the Commander of the mission, and would converge slightly. I didn't expect it to be like this, doing nothing. Will only push things to the hands to do it, such a Thane, I am afraid she is doing well.

He is also an Planeswalker, and they are actually in charge. This is ten thousand miles away from her master. Flo can't help but heavily snorted: "What else can they do? Fleet Just above their heads. The waste of could it be that can not be uprising? Of course, it is noisy to see you at Lord Thane, presumably in their opinion, only Lord Thane is the best you can speak. "

Hearing the grievance in the girl's mouth, Brando shook her head with a bitter smile, but the weakness and incompetence of those southern noble still surprised him. He originally thought that they would at least be more rigid, but he did not expect that Orkens Count would just 'negotiate' with him.

"Since they are going to negotiate," Brando sneered, "That's fine as they wish."

He came raises head: "Where are they?"

"Just outside, they named a few representatives, hoping to negotiate with you." Flo replied with a stern expression.

"Negotiations?" Brando was a little funny: "How are they going to play? What do they want to talk about?"

Flo sneered: "According to them, since the army already of Gorgon Ravine and Leonin has surrendered to the empire, the rest is the civil war of the empire, and the adult already is not suitable to continue to intervene, they suggested that the adult return the fleet Aouine -- Of course, you can still go to the imperial capital as an envoy. "

“Oh? What about The Silver Queen, which claims to be Dragon of Darkness? "Brando asked deliberately.

wild elf girl's face suddenly became weird, and she could see that she was holding back without showing too much disdain, and replied: "They said that this thing is too ridiculous, it may be a rumor."

"Oh," Brando couldn't help but smile: "What a rumor."

He paused and tapped on the table: "In that case, let them come in to see me."

"Good --" Flo blurted out, and then choked, raises head came to stare at one's own Lord Thane: "Lord Thane, what did you just say?"

"could it be that Am I not clear enough? Let them in to see me!"

"But ..."

wild elf girl would like to say, but you do n’t see everything on weekdays? In fact, this is also the source of Correct ’s anger before her. South nobles ’s shake and already are not the first day. In fact, they had hoped to negotiate with Brando on already more than once before. But Brando has never heard of it. Don't bother to restrain these people, it is a laissez-faire appearance, and it is so well-known that it should not cause too much riots in the Port of Fattan.

She had thought that today should be treated the same way, but did not expect that her free-wheeling Lord Thane seemed to be whim, and she wanted to see these people again. In fact, from Flo's point of view, what are the good things about these people? The best way is to catch the fiercest ones among them, kill the chicken to warn the monkey. With these people's timidity, they can't make any storms. Come. Thinking of this, she could not help looking at the Lord Thane in front of her suspiciously.

Brando waved his hand and said, "Nothing but you, please go to the guest who arrived at the castle yesterday."

Which guest? Flo was a little hesitant before thinking of that person. The guy looked as if he was from the northern area of ​​Ludwig. From the appearance, it was barely a Kirrlutzian, but he had a thick Faanzan bloodline. In other words, it's a mixed race. When he arrived at the castle, he claimed to be the messenger of the dark legion, wearing a thick cloak, covering most of his face, a face that did not dare to see people, but Flo remembered that one's own Lord Thane received the other party carefully.

She is not a gossip woman. After listening to Brando's instructions, she just nodded silently, and then turned to leave, but at this time Brando stopped her again.

"Wait," Brando said, "I just asked you to come in, but it's not specifically for you to deal with those nobles."

"What do you mean?" wild elf girl turned and asked.

Brando tapped his forehead, and seemed to think for a moment before answering: "Just right, do two things together. You asked to contact Ciel and let him come to me right away. Can you find him now? Tell him, I want to see Amandina, now, right now. "

Flo nodded silently.

...

Fir Tree Shire, Valhalla fortress --

"Shido Young Lady, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

Amandina watched the prince of the empire and Scholar Young Lady come out of the hall, got up and gave a gift, the eldest son followed the youngster of the Swordbreaker Knight group who was under house arrest here simultaneously a few months ago, a group of more than ten people, everyone Fully armed, ready to go. These Kirrlutz young generation's descendants of noble, after a few months of passing away, seem to be a lot calmer, but maybe because they are used to Valhalla, for a small place of Thane, these empires proud youngsters does not need to condescend Look down, but like Brando Thane with a illusion fortress like Valhalla, they may not really be regarded as a Aouine's Count.

In fact, after these months of getting along, they have at least roughly understood the strength of Brando, even if it is superficial, it is enough to be respectable, even if it is the very powerful real power in the Empire Count, I'm afraid it may not catch up with such a 'small Aouine Count'. In conjunction, they also respect the Brando's deputy -- or Adviser, Amandina.

But that's all. Even if these youngsters are in front of the real royal family of Aouine, I'm afraid it's hard to show such respect. After all, that's just the royal family of a small kingdom forget it/that's all, such as Aouine. Countries, many on the borders of the empire are empires.

The emperor's eldest son, Lenarret, is still the same as a few months ago. He seems a little taciturn and rarely talks to outsiders. For the salute of Amandina, he just nodded slightly, and he frowned slightly, as if he was anywhere anytime. When thinking about any problem, the flashing brilliance in his eyes can also make people confused. He didn't say anything, but the Scholar Young Lady Shido next to him spoke on behalf of already: "Amandina Young Lady, do you suddenly come to us, is there anything important? Is there any change in the situation of the empire?"

Amandina silently looked at these Kirrlutzians again and nodded: "There are some changes, but this is not the main purpose of today."

She paused for a moment: "General Mangrove already contacted our Lord Thane."

“Oh？”

This sentence seems to ignite the wild nature of Lenarret. I saw the emperor's eldest son raises head, and his slightly deeper eyes lighted up.

Time is --

...... (To be continued ...)
