I really just want to be a big lord

Chapter 125
Because Earl Gale gave enough reasons, and the disciplinary knight testified, and Kaios did not make any complaints on the other side. Sri Lanka's war application was finally passed at the meeting of the temporary jury.

It's just that the turnout rate for this pass was frighteningly low. Seven people voted, but the result was 7:2, and five people chose to abstain.

No way, on this matter, even if you want to help Kaios and don't like the Marquis of Steel Heart, you can't vote against it.

Even people with discerning eyes know that the knife wound on Gale's face, which healed almost the next day, was caused by a mere level 4 contracted servant of Keosna. However, to overthrow this judgment, one needs to question the patrolling order of the Punishment Knights. Captain Neto's testimony, this step is very troublesome.

However, if they voted under the current objective conditions, negative votes without sufficient grounds would not only affect their prestige in the aristocratic circle, but more likely affect their honor points in Shengyou Palace.

After the war application is approved, it is time to send a formal letter of appointment to Kaios. The time requirement is only after the letter is sent to the opponent's fixed residence, and there must be time for the opponent to arrive at the battle location.

For example, when Keos plotted against his third uncle Fan Boer and his cousin Tritter before, he just made a time difference, knowing that the two of them were not at home, sent them to deliver the letter of war, and then waited at the place where they must pass to go home. When the time comes, they will go to war directly.

They have no chance of avoiding the war at all, and they can't even drag it into the stage of all-out war.

Of course, the prerequisite for doing that is "someone" in Shengyou Palace.

Dominique helped him run a trip together, so that the delivery of the war letter could be confirmed in advance.

At the same time, the other party's information must not be well-informed, otherwise, it is impossible for Shengyou Palace to pass the war application against him, but he is not aware of it at all.

In particular, wars between some relatively powerful lords will become the center of attention of the entire city almost from the beginning, with all kinds of news flying all over the sky, and there are almost no secrets.

Since Earl Galle took the initiative to apply for war against Kaios, the preparations for the battle had already started long ago. Therefore, as soon as the voting results of the interim jury came out and the official letter of war was prepared, he immediately sent someone to send it to Beishan Manor.

The appointment time was 7:[-] am the next day, in a public area five kilometers away from Beishan Manor.

Compared with Earl Gale's own territory, this place is even closer to Kaios' house.

In the evening, before receiving the official letter of war, Kaios had already received a message from the guards sent by Marquis Ericson:
"Don't fight, drag it into an all-out war."

This means, of course, that Kaios will release Gale's pigeons tomorrow, and then the two will automatically enter a state of full-scale war, so that Marquis Eriksson can apply to join the war.

Of course, once he joins the battle, the Marquis of Steel Heart will most likely end. It is hard to say whether more lords will participate in the future.

Although Marquis Eriksson didn't explicitly say that he would join the war in the message to him, he believed that there was nothing to worry about. At least it was Judge Pender who entrusted him with it.

Early the next morning, before dawn, a large number of convoys drove out from the city and the manors of various lords, heading towards the place where Kaios and Jialei were about to fight.

Naturally, these nobles ran to watch the excitement. From the day when Kaios and Jialei had a conflict in the stockings custom shop, the two of them had become the biggest traffic focus in Yulang City.

The time and location of the decisive battle between the two of them became public news in the entire Yulang City yesterday.

On a high ground a few kilometers away from the decisive battle site, Connie urged the several magicians she brought: "Hurry up, can you arrange it within an hour?"

"One hour may be a bit difficult, we will try our best..." The magician in charge wiped the sweat from his forehead and said back.

"If you can finish it within an hour, I'll double your pay!" Connie interrupted him.

Hearing this, the magician didn't reply anymore, and he and his companions were all immersed in their work, and the speed was much faster.

A young nobleman next to him smiled wryly and said, "Connie, there's no need to hurry, there's still an hour and a half before the time they agreed on. Besides, I got reliable news that Baron Keos will most likely not come to fight of."

This young nobleman was the Claudio who had bet with Connie that Kaios would lose if he fought with Gale in the duel field.

With them, there was also Earl Friel, who was also present that day, and he couldn't help laughing: "What's more 'reliable news'? There are no contracted servants, so how can we fight Gale? No way! However, Baron Keos has a good relationship with Judge Pandor. I guess if there is an all-out war, at least one Marquis will join the battle to help him fight Gale. .At that time, the Marquis of Steelheart will definitely join the battle. In essence, this is still a battle between Marquis of Steelheart and Judge Pender."

"Why do you think the Marquis of Steelheart must confront Judge Pan De? Now that Judge Pan De is no longer in Yulang City, what about..." a nobleman asked puzzled.

Before Earl Friel could answer, Claudio had already laughed and said, "Judge Pan De suddenly left Yulang City in a hurry. Do you think it has something to do with him? Something, once it starts, it's hard to stop." down."

"The Marquis of Steel Heart wants to be promoted to the Duke? But he couldn't be promoted to the Duke, so it doesn't necessarily have to do with Judge Pan De. Before the Judge Pan De came to Yulang City, they couldn't be promoted to the Duke either?" the nobleman asked. asked.

Claudio said: "It seems to be related to the upper-level struggle in Shengyou Palace. I know it from a special source, and I'm not sure if it's true or not."

Connie said disdainfully: "A special source for a while, a reliable source for a while, Claudio, do you want to be a news broker? Speaking of today's matter, I also have a 'reliable source', who is sure that Baron Keos Will definitely come, do you dare to bet with me?"

Claudio said: "Haven't we already bet on the outcome of the war between Baron Keos and Earl Gale?"

"Let's make another small warm-up gamble. If you lose this time, you will be responsible for paying the cost of the long-distance expansion magic circle, how about it?" Connie said.

Claudio shook his head: "Didn't you say that you made this circle?"

"Hmph, stingy, how about this, I just open the market, and you all can bet, within 100 tickets, no matter how much you bet, if Baron Keos doesn't show up today, if he doesn't fight, I will pay you twice, what? Like?" Connie said.

Claudio immediately said: "I will vote for 100 tickets first. There is no reason not to pick up the free money."

Several other aristocrats on the high ground also followed up, basically betting on the full amount of 100 coupons.

"I also bet 100 vouchers, and Baron Keos will fight today." Earl Friel smiled and handed [-] magic vouchers to Connie's contracted servant.

Connie glared at him: "You bet on my side, how about it?"

Freer laughed and said: "You open the market, of course you should eat both sides, I don't need you to pay two for one, just pay one for one, how about it?"

Claudio frowned and said, "Baron Friel, didn't you say just now that 'Baron Keos will not come to fight today'?"

Friel laughed and said, "Because I believe in Connie's 'reliable source', don't forget who her brother is."

"That's right, brother Connie is the Marquis of Alan, and the Marquis of Alan is a member of the temporary jury, maybe he really knows something." A nobleman said.

"Although the Marquis of Elan and Baron Keos are both painters, they probably have no friendship?" Claudio looked at Connie suspiciously and asked.

Connie ignored him, and said to Earl Friel, "You might as well bet against Claudio."

"Claudio, what's the matter, do you want to eat the [-] Magic Coupons?" Ferrell turned back and said with a smile.

Claudio didn't speak, frowning and thinking, quickly analyzing the various news he got.

"Here, someone is coming." A nobleman on the high ground shouted.

"Oh? Earl Carleigh brought someone into the arena?"

"No, Earl Gale's manor territory is not in this direction."

"Hey, it looks like someone from Baron Keos?"

"Keos is really here?"

A group of people squinted their eyes and looked into the distance. Although the human figures, clothes, and signs could not be seen clearly at this distance, the direction of the group of people was basically certain.

A young nobleman who had just finished betting on Connie said to her with a bitter face, "Can I go back on my word..."

Connie raised her head proudly: "Don't even think about it!"

In that wave just now, she easily earned more than 1000 magic coupons.The number of magic coupons is secondary, the main thing is that this feeling is really cool.

Ferrell smiled wryly: "Baron Keos came a little early... But I didn't expect that he really dared to come... Could it be that he bought a few top-level contracted servants in the past few days?"

"Hurry up, hurry up, come on, fix the magic circle!" Connie urged the magic circle masters again. Their distance and angle gave them a good view of the overall battle situation, but because they were too far away, The details depend on the long-distance expansion magic circle to help them see the specific scene clearly.

At this time, as Kaios led a large group of people into the battle location, not only the high ground where Connie and Earl Friel were located, but also the nobles who rushed over to watch the excitement from various positions appeared in bursts The commotion then turned into a heated discussion.

Although they all rushed over early in the morning to watch the excitement, to be honest, most people didn't think that Kaios would come to fight. After all, the strength of the two sides was too far apart, and there was only a glimmer of hope in an all-out war.

But what I didn't expect was that Kaios actually arrived before Gale.

"Why are there so many people? Has Baron Keos pulled out all the contracted servants?" Qian Cangxiao couldn't help frowning as he looked at the marching team of Keos.

Naturally, she followed Christina to watch the battle. After learning from the countess that Kaios would fight, she was shocked. The most shocking thing was that the countess, who was extremely well-informed, didn't know what Kaios had. How dare you fight.

After the in-depth communication at the previous birthday party, she really didn't want Kaios to fall into this meaningless battle.

Christina curled her lips, and put down the magic telescope in her hand: "He really brought the farmers to fight? Interesting, really interesting, I have a hunch, today I can see scenes that I have never seen before, this kid, It’s always a surprise.”

A female nobleman next to her also put down her magic telescope and said: "Our location here is good, but unfortunately the angle is not very good. It would be great if it was like the high ground over there. How to send people on both sides, how to fight, how to cast spells, how to rush in , can be seen clearly."

Another noblewoman looked at the direction she was pointing at, which was the high ground where Connie and the others were located, and said, "It's already someone else's territory."

"That is to say, the location here is pretty good now, and with the magic telescope provided by the Earl, it must be clearer than others. This magic telescope should be very expensive, right? I used it before, At this distance, it is impossible to see the figure clearly..."

Listening to the words of the two female nobles, Qian Cang Lixiao immediately knew that these two probably were just befriended by Tina, and they were deliberately brought together, and they were not very familiar with each other, otherwise they would not be so ignorant of Christina's style.

Since the countess chose to watch the battle here instead of looking for a high ground, it must be that the vision here is better than that of the high ground.

Sure enough, when Kaios's team all entered the battle location, and Gale's people appeared in the distance, Christina gestured to the contracted servant next to him, and the latter nodded to the eight magicians who had been standing by. nod.

When the two noblewomen were watching Earl Gale enter the arena with magic telescopes, they suddenly realized that their viewing angles were constantly rising.

They put down the binoculars, and suddenly saw that the circular platform they were on started slowly rising into the sky.

They had followed Christina here, and when they saw the accompanying servants unloading things from the carriage to form such a circular platform, and then placed tables, chairs, melons, fruits, and drinks, they were already lamenting that the Earl of Brilliance is worthy of being Brilliant Earl, travel is very extravagant and enjoyable. Other nobles usually watch from the carriage, or just set up a temporary simple seat on the roof of the carriage.

But it never occurred to me that this huge platform was actually a magical device, and it was directly "manually" driven by eight high-ranking great magicians.

Although its speed of ascension was very slow, it was just like that, very stable, and even the drinks on the table did not vibrate visibly.

The two noblewomen were also from the lord's family, but they were still shocked by the scene in front of them. It's not that they haven't seen this kind of device before, but they never thought that this kind of device could be used in this kind of scene...

In the distance, in the designated duel field, Kaios also saw the platform that was lifted into the air.

Looking at the glittering gold style and this coquettish and wasteful manner, one can tell that it must be Christina.

Looking at the various chariots and horses parked across the safety zone outside the decisive battle area, Kaios had the illusion that he and Jialei were going to have a big show.

This situation reminded him of the duel between the contracted servants with Jialei in the inner city not long ago.

He knew that the so-called war in front of him was actually an expanded version of the previous duel in essence.

Shengyou Palace limited the battle among the nobles to a mode similar to competition and competition through layer upon layer of rules.

The duel of contracted servants is the most typical, giving the nobles an outlet to resolve their disputes. It is their contracted servants who die and fight, without hurting the nobles themselves.

The so-called battle now is still an enlarged version of the "contract servant duel" that controls the scale of the war to a certain extent.

Those who lose will pay a high price and almost lose their property, but as long as the general nobles do not end the battle by themselves, they usually will not die, their family members will not be slaughtered, and their property and territory will not be directly invaded. Protected by the Holy Blessing Palace and the Disciplinary Knights, at most, they will decline all at once. After selling off and fulfilling the war contract, they will become a down-and-out nobleman without a territory or a title.

And only by avoiding such appointments and battles and entering a state of full-scale war, will the mode of no rules, no lower limit, and direct attacks on various territories, industries, citizens, contracted servants, family members and even the lord himself be opened.

But even in the so-called "all-out war" state, Keos believed that the Holy Blessing Palace still added a layer of rules to it, and it was not really "all-out".

The war can still only take place within the designated battlefield and within the territory of both parties. There are still disciplinary knights who will monitor the surroundings of the battlefield and forbid it to spread to the territories of other lords.

The so-called art of war, the cunning of soldiers, is impossible to display in the war between the lords of the Holy Blessed Alliance.

However, this is an advantage for Kaios who likes to study the rules and watch various historical battles.

Seeing Earl Galle's men and horses also enter the battlefield area and take their positions, the corners of Kaios' mouth curled up slightly.

Then treat this battle as a big SHOW.
