Chapter 458 (1/2)
The arrival of executive Christina was indeed a little beyond Sean's expectation. However, since it was said that she was responsible for arbitration on the subject of territorial ownership this time, Sean was certainly hard to say. So he had to arrange a room for her in the Lord's house, just next to Beth. Anyway, as long as Beth was there, Sean believed Christina couldn't turn over any storm.
As for Christina's combat effectiveness, Sean had no doubt.
The white robed executive officer from the peace association can definitely be regarded as the kind of existence at the top of the same level. Moreover, after nearly a month's training, Sean has clearly realized the gap between himself and the top gold strongman. At least if he is alone, he will never be Christina's opponent. Even if there is a grunt, he will be barely tied. If xuefanio is included, he can win, but if Christina is determined to escape, They really can't stop it.
Because according to the description of the South Gate urban defense army that night, Christina came in the air.
This technique of stepping on the air is the exclusive skill of arcane warriors. It is a special ability combined with arcane skill and fighting spirit. This ability allows the arcane warriors to move freely in any terrain without any interference. Although there will be height restrictions when taking off, as a profession below the holy land, only the arcane warriors can take off and fight. This advantage is very great.
In any way, Christina's appearance does bring an unprecedented sense of pressure and awe to Sean and others.
After arranging Christina's affairs, Neil, William and Sean all came to the small conference room. After they looked at each other, they finally sighed helplessly.
”I have never heard that in the arbitration involving the peace association, an executive officer will be sent instead of an arbitrator.” Neil said suspiciously, ”could that man... Be a member of the Hastings family?”
”Unlikely.” William was also a little uncertain. ”How could the people of the peace association be bought off?”
”No, no, no, I'm not talking about buying.” Neil shook his head and looked at how your reaction became so dull. ”What I'm talking about is, is this man fake? That is to say, he is not from the peace Association... ”
”I think you have a problem with your IQ.” William was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, he despised what kind of white Neil looked like, but this charming appearance felt like casting pearls before swine when facing Neil, ”if it was fake, how could she know what she got there two and a half years ago...”
William looked back at Sean.
”Tindes collar, a count collar in the kingdom of potoroa near the forest of stars and meteorites.”
”... yes!” William nodded hard. ”If she was a fake, she would never know what happened in tinders. From this point of view, she can't be fake Perhaps as she said, she had been chasing Sean for the past two years, so she came here after receiving the news. I think it is very likely that there may be a shortage of staff within the peace Association... ”
But before he finished, William himself shut up.
Although the peace association is a very extreme lunatic organization, and has never established any army since it was jointly attacked by all countries on the whole continent, there are many executives who charge on the front lines of wars and have a very high mortality rate, What's more, there is no need for an arbitrator who is only responsible for arbitrating disputes across the continent.
”This executive is really not a fake.” Sean thought about it carefully and then said, ”the standard clothes and robes of the peace association have special marks. I have observed carefully before. Those marks are true, so her identity can be confirmed However, this is actually no different for us. Anyway, the territorial contract instrument is in our hands. No matter whether the executive or the arbitrator comes, the result will not change. ”
”That's true.” William and Neil nodded.
”Speaking of it, the man named Stephen has been caught for a month? Did you ask anything? ” Thinking of it, Sean suddenly asked.
Hearing Sean's words, Neil also turned his eyes to William. Recently, he himself has been very busy, so he didn't ask about interrogating the prisoners. He had forgotten about it. Now he was reminded by Sean, and he was a little curious.
However, different from the situation imagined by Sean and Neil, William's face changed slightly and looked very unnatural when he heard this.
”What happened?” Sean frowned slightly.
”I have something in his hand.”
Sean keenly noticed that William's hands on the table suddenly clenched and stretched under the table. His face became very ugly at this moment. It seemed that he remembered something, so the blood color on his face began to fade gradually and became unusually pale. The whole was like the first recovery of a serious illness.
”It doesn't matter what handle you have. You're my man now.” Sean took a deep breath and then said, ”those things in the past can no longer threaten you.”
Hearing Sean's words, William raised his head and looked at Sean. He was moved in his eyes, but he soon hid it in his heart again.
The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became a little silent and awkward.
”What the hell is it?” Neil can't hold it anymore.
”Do you know the coup of the Millennium covenant Empire about ten years ago?”
The coup ten years ago?
Sean was stunned. He really didn't know that.
”Is it the reshuffle of the old and new aristocratic circles triggered by the battle of boqiliya as a fuse?” Neil seemed to know something about this. After a little thought, he said, ”if you remember correctly, the current emperor of the Millennium covenant empire is a supporter of the new aristocracy. It was the coup that made him sit firmly on the throne... It is said that after the coup, he killed a total of 11 royal members, including his father. ”
”What happened to the battle of pochilia?” Sean was a little confused.
”It was a battle for the Empire to advance to the frontier and wasteland in order to expand its territory.” Neil opened his mouth and explained, ”the commander of the leading army is Marquis Horton. This is an emerging aristocrat. Only in terms of family strength, it should be regarded as a real marquis. However, although the commander was Marquis Horton, it was the white rose Legion that was actually in charge of the battle. This Legion... ”
At this point, Neil suddenly stopped and looked at William in surprise.
Sean doesn't know, so.
However, William had already answered: ”in addition to an imperial legion, the formation scale of that army also involved the private soldiers of 11 nobles, half of the new and half of the old nobles. Although the Marquis Horton was a new aristocrat, he became the commander of the army because of his highest title. However, the Marquis Horton was not particularly good at fighting, so the Empire specially arranged the white rose Legion to become the main fighting legion, and I was the deputy head of the Legion at that time. ”
”One month before the war, it can be said that the imperial army won a complete victory. However, later, in a canyon, because of the complacency of marquis Horton, the general team took it into a canyon and encountered the enemy's attack back and forth. It can be said that it suffered heavy losses.” William took a deep breath and continued to say in a deep voice, ”the Legion I belonged to at that time could not even be called a third rate army in the Empire. It was said that it was the main force of the battle. In fact, it was just a cannon fodder army. At this time, I was cut off by the disabled soldiers of the white rose regiment ordered by the Marquis Horton.”
”Isn't this an abandoned son?” Sean was furious.
”You are so naive. This is normal in war science. ” Neil glanced at Sean and whispered, ”if you continue to flee like this, the whole army will be destroyed, so you must abandon some people and let more people survive. In this way, you may turn defeat into victory.”
”Yes, I stayed because of this consideration.” William nodded, but his voice returned to calm. ”Although the process was a little cruel, the result was undoubtedly lucky. Hundreds of people, including me, survived. At that time, I became the captain of more than 100 people because of my highest military position. After a month of detour and abscond, we successfully returned to the imperial border However, what is waiting for us is not glory, but a... Massacre. ”
