Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 278 Asking how many injuries can you have, just like the yellow mud falling off the crotch

Earl Netwan's face was obviously stiff for a moment because of the beating of the high official Xiahou.

But immediately, the muscles on his face squirmed and trembled due to excessive anger. The Earl of the Withered Wood forest forcefully suppressed the anger of being framed, pointed at the young lord opposite, and gritted his teeth:

"Okay... okay... come on! Our dead wood forest is treasonous?! Ha, then you take out the 'iron proof' you found!"

The imperial lords who were watching were also a little confused by the development of the situation:

How could it be a social occasion to commemorate Master Mephisto suddenly turned into a public trial where Shuangfengling and Deadwood Forest accused each other of treason? !

Co-authored Today, there must be a traitor among the lords of the empire? !
Even the most unrestrained and selfish imperial aristocrats, seeing this scene of catching traitors, will inevitably have a sense of belonging to the empire, and give birth to a trace of sadness that "the benevolent should tremble when the rich are full of the court".

Compared to Earl Netwan's fury and the imperial nobles' panic, the young Lord of Shuangfengling was still the calmest one on the field.

Xia Houyan cleared his throat and said loudly:
"Everyone, after I caught this Mr. Orc who escaped, I have been thinking about it. Among so many empire lords, who is the ghost in the empire who is in collusion with the Orc Federation? And the answer to this question, I am actually Inspired by Master Namithas of Northlookshire!"

"Me?!" Master Namisas was dumbfounded.

The nobles of the empire were also all stupid:

Master Namisas, who was born in Northlook County, is an old-fashioned magister who enjoys a high reputation in the magic and political circles of the empire. His magical attainments and personal conduct are among the top-notch group of chief mages in each territory;
The noble sentiment and broad mind of Master Namisas can be seen from a small thing:

He did not discriminate against the rebellious family history and wasteland fiefdom of the lord of Shuangfengling like other imperial lords and celebrities, but sincerely praised Shuangfengling's contribution in the hunting war, and his conduct was extremely fair;
But none of the nobles in the empire has heard that besides his cultivation and kindness, Master Namisas also has the specialty of "catching ghosts"?
"That's right!" Xia Houyan bowed respectfully to Master Namisas, "It was the reasoning that Master Namisas told me just now, which showed me the way to discover the real inner ghost! Please read here !"

The bewildered imperial nobles followed Xia Houyan's instructions and turned their heads to look;

It turned out that the body of the death knight killed by Frost Maple Ridge was still lying on the ground.

"Is there any problem with this undead creature?" A nobleman asked loudly.

"Of course!" Xia Houyan, like a star performing on stage, made a cheerful gesture of "I can see you" to this fan who actively spoke up to set off the atmosphere, and continued to speak loudly, "Master Namisas analyzed to me just now. , at the Kemal Manor that the orcs just attacked, at the scene of the battle between the imperial hunting team and the Scarlet Flame Vulture, a necromantic creature suddenly appeared—is this reasonable? Please recall, how many people have already lived in the empire? Haven't there been death knights this year?"

Hearing this, the nobles of the empire and the hunting team members fell into deep thought.

Indeed, there was chaos on the battlefield just now. Whether it was a warrior or a mage who participated in the battle, they all just knew that "a necromancer creature appeared on the battlefield", and they needed to "send a team to deal with it" while fighting against the Scarlet Flame Demon Vulture. Just click";
But no one had time to think about it, where the hell did this death knight come from? !
The curiosity of the onlookers was immediately aroused by the official Xiahou.

However, Xia Houyan, who was the best at whetting his appetite, didn't give an answer right away, but instead put a microphone as big as a clay pot into the mouth of Master Namisas:

"Dear Master Namisas, please tell everyone about your deduction just now!"

Master Namisas was stunned for a moment, then answered honestly:

"Uh...my idea is that it must not be a coincidence that this death knight appeared here and killed Master Mephisto! This death knight must be a backup ambush arranged by the Orc Federation here! I It is even speculated that a very high-level necromancer may have appeared in the Orc Federation—I plan to report this matter to the Magic Association after I return to the imperial capital."

Master Namisas's inference is reasonable, and the nobles of the empire couldn't help but nodded secretly;

There are also some people with profound knowledge who frowned deeply:

A necromancer who can create a death knight will not be lower than a magister—if such a brave figure really appears in the Orc Federation, it will be worse for the empire that has just suffered a defeat!
In terms of direct lethality on the battlefield, necromancers are of course no match for fire mages who can plow the ground with heavy firepower;

But when it comes to "making trouble", there really is no magic faction that can compare with the taboo category of "necromancer magic"!
Perhaps it is because the practice of necromancy will have an irreversible and harmful effect on the mind of a magician. The well-known necromancy methods of Lindsay, Olsinki, and Jimmy Davis in history have all brought great influence to the empire. A heavyweight who has caused a lot of trouble and bears countless blood debts!
The patriarch of necromancy, Master Simon Adrian, is even more perverted, directly creating an undeveloped dead zone in the eastern border of the empire!

A necromancer who can rely on resurrecting the dead and realize a one-man army is also considered another extreme of "huge destructive power" in large-scale wars:
Because necromancy is very popular in the demons, one of the important tactics that the demons are famous for is to let high-level necromancers sneak into the enemy's cities, dig graves, steal corpses, drill sewers, and secretly create an undead The army, and then directly rely on a small group of undead troops to launch an offensive in the center of the city and massacre civilians!

To tell the truth, even a small group of well-trained soldiers suddenly launched an attack in the center of a town, which is enough to make a city go crazy;
Not to mention that under the magic boost, the physical fitness and combat effectiveness of undead creatures are definitely not inferior to elite soldiers-such a group of undead thugs directly carry out street fighting in the city, and their only opponents are unarmed civilians and defenseless soldiers. The City Defense Force...

Any fool knows what kind of hell will be in this city;
And these are just the achievements of a necromancer!

Even, since the actual battles are all done by the servants of the undead, the necromancer who is the culprit doesn't even need to show up, he can just wave his sleeves and run away, singing "Gentlemen, resentment, life and death, a few people can see through life and death" Come and take a walk!
Then change the city after a while and do it again!
And if it were a fire-type magician who cast the meteorite curse in the city center, he might be able to kill many people at the beginning, but in the end, the magician would definitely be stabbed to death on the barrel of the gun by the swarming regular army. His sneak attack has also become a one-shot deal that cannot be repeated...

Comparing the two, the necromancer's hooliganism can be seen immediately.

Hearing that there might be a necromancer in the Orc Federation, those nobles who are related to the imperial military and whose territories are located in the eastern border suddenly panicked—God knows that this "orc necromancer" will Wouldn't you use your own territory as a test field for a wave of undead raids?
Master Nemesas looked at Master Mephisto's body, shook his head and said:

"The reason why the Orc Federation ambushed the death knight here and did not show up easily is obviously to hide the traces of their necromancer—and this death knight did fulfill its 'duty' and seized the opportunity to kill Mei. Master Pfister, let us completely lose a beloved senior..."

Everyone was speechless.

There are also optimists who offer comfort:

"Well, although Master Mephisto has returned to the embrace of the Supreme Holy God, the sacrifice of the master has also allowed us to obtain important information about the orc necromancer-the death of the master may be able to save countless empires in the future. Life is also uncertain."

This is of course just wishful thinking for self-comfort, Master Namisas sighed, shook his head and remained silent.

Xia Houyan nodded after listening to everyone's discussion, and continued to speak loudly:

"Everyone, it is the reasoning that Master Namisas told me just now, which inspired me to find the traces of traitors—since the traitors in the empire have connections with the Orc Federation, and this death knight is made of Summoned by the orc necromancer, then, this death knight..."

Master Namisas woke up like a dream, and said loudly:

"...It must have something to do with the ghosts in the empire! No, that's right! To make a death knight, you need to use the corpses of high-end warriors as materials, and, judging from the size of this death knight, it should be a human being! To make this one The corpse material of the death knight must have been obtained by the orc necromancer in the empire!"

"To be precise, it's not in the empire, but in Earl Philip Netwan's withered forest!" Xia Houyan stretched out his hand and pointed at the bewildered Earl Netwan.

The official Xiahou actually wanted to push his glasses and shout "Xin Jiziwa touched a black head once", but it's a pity that he didn't wear glasses, and the illiterates of the empire couldn't understand the Japanese of the earth.

"By! Why!" Earl Netwan was stunned for three seconds before suddenly roaring, "Why do you think that this ghostly creature has something to do with our Deadwood Forest!"

"Because...the coat of arms." Xia Houyan kicked up and kicked on the black steel armor of "Android One".

The unlucky death knight rolled a few times on the ground with the sound of sharp metal rubbing, and then spread his hands and feet, forming a "big" shape embracing the sky——

——Although his whole body armor has been turned into deep black due to the erosion of the ghost power, there is still a small obvious bulge on the left front part of the death knight's breastplate;
It was the territory badge worn by the knight during his lifetime.

A round of rising sun broke out suddenly in the sky, illuminating the Kemal Manor covered in blood and ashes, and also illuminating the black armor of "artificial man No. [-]";

Therefore, the surrounding imperial nobles and knights all turned their attention to the death knight's breastplate, and then found the already blurred but still clearly visible deadwood forest family emblem in the center of the black erosion...

"It's a dry...withered wood forest!" Master Namisas widened his eyes and shouted out the facts that everyone had discovered.

"Philip Netwan! You are the spy who betrayed the empire and conspired with the Orc Federation!" Xia Houyan yelled sharply, "The corpse of this death knight must have been provided to the orc necromancer after you brutally killed your own knight. Yes! But you would never have imagined that we, Shuangfengling, came one step late, and just intercepted the death knight who was about to escape after killing Master Mephisto, and exposed you, the inner ghost who betrayed the empire, to the broad daylight! You So eager to frame Emperor Zhongliang as an inner ghost, it seems that he is trying to hide himself!"

"What...? But I... I..." Earl Netwan opened his mouth like an idiot, and thousands of words were choked in his throat;
And behind Earl Netwan, countless imperial knights had drawn out their weapons in a tacit understanding, pointing at the noble earl who was suspected of collaborating with the enemy;
Even the knights of the Deadwood Forest couldn't help but take two steps back, distanced themselves from the Patriarch——

——Selling one's own knights to the Orc Federation to create undead creatures, this behavior has completely exceeded the boundaries of noble morality and human ethics!
Only Master Laurie, who witnessed the whole process, covered his old face very covertly:

This death knight was originally made by the lord with the unlucky dead wood forest——

——The family emblem on that girl is not a dead wood forest, what the hell could it be!
