Chapter 230 (1/1)
As soon as the three people who left the Pharmacist Association walked out of the gate, they heard the sound of the clarion on the wall. As the count of Heishan, Lothar knew the meaning of the voice. But somehow, when he wanted to remind cheese, he found that there was no change in the mage's face, as if he had anticipated all this.
”It doesn't sound very touching.” Said Jack, holding the count.
”It's a sign of enemy attack. And the number of enemies is enough to threaten the city. It has been a long time since the kingdom of Cang lion provoked such an opponent When Lothar said this, his eyes were always on the cheese's face. His intuition told him that the mage must know what made such a sound on the wall. Cheese did live up to his expectations.
”Rat man. Lots of native rat people. ” The wizard in grey looked up at the tall city walls in the distance. ”But the number of them should not be enough to break through here, provided we can clean up the dirty things in the city. No matter how strong a fortress is, it will be broken from the inside. I remember that saying
The master's words made the count of Heishan full of doubts. As a witness of the gathering of the dark residents of Wangdu, he had the impression that the dark side of the city should have been completely included in his own camp. But then he thought of the attack in the morning, and Lothar realized that the ”dirty stuff” in cheese might have something to do with it.
”Hey, guys. I don't mean to interrupt you. However, someone is coming. It sounds like these soldiers are not going to go to the wall. ” Wolf Walker's hearing lets Jack hear the sound of armor collision far away. From this, it can be inferred that a well armed army is coming in their direction.
As soon as the wolf man's voice fell, two pairs of four knights came out on horseback from the far corner. Judging from the white lion emblem on their bodies, these Knights seem to belong directly to the royal family of the grey lion.
”The guards? What are they doing here? ” Lothar's brow frowned. In his impression, this army dedicated to protecting the royal family and important nobles should never be here.
The leading Knights soon found the three men, or Lothar is now in a state of confusion, it is difficult not to notice him. They gently kicked the horse in the crotch with their spurred boots, and in the neighing of the horses, more Knights surrounded them. Although the armor blocked the faces of these knights, judging from the way they put their hands on their weapons, they certainly did not pass by.
The count of Heishan naturally wanted to ask about the Knights' intentions. For Lothar, though there was not much cooperation with the guards, it was not without them. In particular, Lothar grew up around the king and was very familiar with some veteran generals in the Imperial Guard. But just as the count wanted to speak, cheese raised his hand to Rosa. The mage's expression became very terrible when he saw these knights. It was a mixed expression of anger and helplessness.
After the Knights surrounded the three, more infantry began to appear. The armor of these soldiers was more beautiful than their counterparts on the city wall. After all, the position of forbidden guard not only protected the safety of royal family members, but also showed the national strength of the kingdom. And the lion head helmets worn by the guards are really impressive.
But among the lion headed soldiers in this area, only a small group was dressed in black, and they were wearing broad robe like armor with iron chains. It makes them look less like soldiers, but more like believers from that sect. The men in black held a flag different from that of the guards, which showed a black Tomahawk with a lion's head. Among the white lions, only one family used the nearly pure black flag.
”Executioner.” Lothar said it subconsciously when she saw the flag. He knew the flag, or all the nobles of the lion knew it. Because this flag represents the family that every human kingdom or empire will exist, infamous executioners.
It is a strange belief in human society that nobles can only die at the hands of nobles. Those who have knighthood believe that they are different from the people who are ruled. So when these nobles were sentenced to death, the people who started to kill them could not be civilians. Therefore, the executioner family came into being. They were abnormal in the aristocratic society, but they were also full of mystery.
The combination of the executioners and the guards can only tell one thing. The people they are about to judge have a high rank in the kingdom.
A large number of soldiers soon poured in from the gap between the cavalry, forming a more oppressive line of defense. These soldiers, armed with spears and heavy shields, surrounded the three cheese men. The lion sculptures on their shields glowed with frightful light in the sunlight.
”Well, it's a big time.” Jack whistled. For the wolf walker, no matter how sharp the weapons were, as long as they were not mixed with silver when casting, they would hardly hurt him.
”Hula!” The soldiers in front of the three separated towards the two sides, and those holding the black flag slowly walked into the encirclement. Cheese noticed that among them, there was a young man in a pharmacist's uniform, but this man seemed to deliberately avoid his sight and hide most of his body among the black robed men.When all of them stood still, a black robed man carrying a lion's head axe like a flag came out. Although his face was unrecognizable because of his black hood, Lothar knew that this man was Harold III, the notorious Duke of Blood Axe in the kingdom of Cang lion, the head of the family of executioners.
The big Duke of the Blood Axe walked about 30 steps in front of the three people and inserted his axe into the ground. The originally solid stone road was as soft as putty in front of the axe. He pulled down his black hood, and the metal clasps from the chain, revealing an old and emaciated face. A lot of people think that the head of the executioner family should be a tough guy, but in fact, Harold's figure has never been strong.
The voice of the executioner of ”Rosa Black Mountain” is as impressive as the howl of a wolf in the night. ”You are charged with murder of nobility, witchcraft and treason. According to the king's order, you are sentenced to death. Your head will be suspended in the capital for three days, and the Heishan family's title will be inherited by the collateral descendants
