I weave fate in parallel time and space

Chapter 188 The spirit of chivalry
In the south of Britannia, in a hidden meeting room on the second floor of the Prince's Mansion in Steam City.

Prince Victor sat in front of the desk with a gloomy face, and the curtains of the surrounding windows were drawn.

The decoration here is very luxurious, Baroque style, the floors and walls are all marble, and there is even a portrait of Zeus sitting on the throne on the ceiling.

There are a lot of people sitting around the office, all dressed gorgeously, and it looks like the upper class of Britannia, and some nobles and generals from the south are sitting here, all of whom are supporters of Victor.

"This Arthur, as soon as he comes up, let me hand over all the military power in my hand, and let him take full control of the southern front."

Viktor gritted his teeth and said, "What an arrogant guy! Defeating a bunch of rabble, do you really think you're the legendary king?"

A person in the crowd said, "My shadow said that the new emperor has sent his henchmen to investigate the witch hunt.

Priests of some churches have been secretly arrested and detained, but we don't know exactly where. "

"The plague hasn't been resolved yet, and the Spanish Empire's army hasn't been repelled yet, so they're planning to trouble us?" Another person said.

"We sent a lot of assassins, and even tried to assassinate him by poisoning him, but this emperor is really terrible." The person who spoke at the beginning had some lingering fear in his eyes, "The people we sent out basically Didn't come back."

"Is there no way? Wood." Victor asked.

Wood thought for a while, and said tentatively, "Otherwise, we flipped the table over?
We now have an army of 30, and it is not impossible to succeed. "

"According to the news from the imperial capital, the new emperor can form an army by himself." One of them frowned, "He once defeated the West French army that entered the Maria's Great Mountain Range with a single sword.

That great emperor is famous far and wide, if he uses that sword again, our army's morale will surely collapse. "

Victor also shook his head and said, "Even if we can barely defeat Arthur, we will lose both sides, and the Spanish Empire will benefit in the end.

They can take this opportunity to annex the entire South, which is the worst outcome for us. "

The surrounding nobles and Victor's staff also began to chat in whispers.

"Then what should we do, should we just sit and wait for death?"

"Damn it, is the King of Destiny really that powerful?
How could the battlefield on the Eastern Front be resolved within half a year.

That's not just West France, it's the entire coalition!

All our plans were disrupted. "

"My people told me about the situation on the battlefield over there, and I have never seen such a battle in my life.

Wherever Britannia's troops go, they are warmly welcomed by the local people.

It seems that what came in was not an enemy army, but a savior. "

"What did West France do to make their people hate their country so much?"

"You should ask what the Eternal King did there, the situation in Britannia is only worse than West Francia."

"There is also the army he brought. I went to the barracks to see it three days ago. It is really amazing. It is a real victorious army."

"I have also seen it, and I can only say that it is worthy of an army that can defeat the enemy with 20 and 60.

I heard that these troops are from the west. As far as I know, the troops in the west have not fought for a long time, and they definitely do not have such qualities. "

"That's what happened under King Arthur."

"His ability to train the army is absolutely top-notch, and his tactical and strategic vision is also exceptional.

I heard that he is only 14 years old, and I have never heard of such a person in the past.

Where did his knowledge come from? "

"It can only be said that it is the destiny."

The people below gradually changed from discussing how to deal with Arthur to lamenting Arthur's ability and means.

Victor's already frowning brows deepened.

"Okay! Don't forget the purpose of my gathering you here.

Didn't you see what King Arthur did in Westphalan?
If he can attack the nobles there, he can attack you!

We are the one! "

People came back to their senses and fell into deep contemplation.

For a moment, the entire office fell silent.

"I do have a way."

Hearing this, people looked up at him.

"Most of his strength should come from the sword in the stone." Wood said.

"If... we steal the sword in the stone, or destroy it, maybe the situation will be much better."

"It's impossible." Victor shook his head, "We've tried this before.

His sword in the stone is inseparable from his body, no one can take that sword from his hand. "

"Listen to me first." Wood said patiently.

He looked around at the people, "In that old British legend.

King Arthur's sword in the stone was not indestructible, it was broken.

It was broken in a duel with King Bolinor.

At that time, the king of Bolino refused to fight with the sword many times, and only fought with spears.

The first two spear competitions were evenly divided between the two, and King Arthur lost the third time unfortunately.

Although King Bolino repeatedly emphasized that he was unwilling to compete with swordsmanship, King Arthur, who refused to admit defeat, finally pulled out his sword. After a deadly fight, the sword in the stone was cut off by King Bolino.

When King Bolino learned that his opponent was King Arthur, he feared that the defeated King Arthur would wait for an opportunity to retaliate. He was terrified and tried to kill King Arthur on the spot to avoid future troubles. Fortunately, the magician Merlin helped Arthur to escape.

That was a turning point in King Arthur's fortunes. "

"But we don't have King Berlino here?" Victor frowned.

"Although the sword in the stone was cut off by King Berlino, the main reason was not him." Wood looked around and said, "It was because King Arthur violated the knight code. Use a sword, but break your promise by not admitting defeat."

Viktor's eyes shot out with horror, "That is to say, if luring him violates the knight's rules, there is also the possibility of breaking the sword in the stone?"

"The Sword in the Stone is the sword chosen by the king." Wood said, "The holder of the sword must be a noble person, but the story is just a story after all. I can't guarantee its success."

"However, this may be our only breakthrough." Victor's eyes flickered.

"But... how to break through?" One of them murmured softly.

"The Code of Chivalry consists of eight spirits: humility, honor, sacrifice, valor, mercy, honesty, justice, and reason.

There are also nine rules: be kind to the weak, fight against violence, fight against all mistakes, fight for the defenseless, help anyone who asks me for help, don't hurt any woman, help my brother knight, be true to my friends, Loved until death. "

"It sounds like a lot of rules, but in fact they are very general, and King Arthur is not stupid. If he is too deliberate, he will notice."

"Then let him lose his mind." Victor's eyes flickered, "Under certain circumstances, it is difficult for a person to think rationally.

Like anger. "

He looked at the middle-aged man wearing a priest's costume on the other side and said.

"Father Thomas, I don't care about the internal struggles of your Nightmare Order.

But I guess you don't want to lose control of southern Britannia either, do you?

Arthur, is our common enemy. "

It was a thin middle-aged man with half-white hair, his face was yellow, and his eye sockets were deeply sunken. The gold-rimmed pince-nez seemed to be part of his face.

Except for the ribbon, the whole body is completely black, only the buttonhole is inlaid with a thin red border, like bloodstains drawn with a red pen.

Thomas was silent for a moment, "What do you want to say?"

"I remember you have some very special abilities, don't you?"

　I was a little stuck yesterday, but I figured it out today. Arthur’s plot limits the extent to which I can stretch the timeline, making it impossible to unfold many plots, so I plan to finish writing Arthur’s line as soon as possible.

　　Then go to the cool point of the next stage.
