Warhammer in a box

Chapter 185 Frankness

Lawen sat in the seat that belonged to the king and looked towards the nobles present with me.

"My king, why did you call us here so late? Why did you come back from the front?"

Lawen looked at the person who was speaking. The speaker was Lawrence, a marquis under his rule. This title was already the highest-ranking among the nobles, and he was also the only marquis who stayed in Cologne. He was 80 years old at this time. He was once an adventurous knight in search of the Holy Grail.

But in the end, no matter how hard he tried, he failed to get what he wanted. Disillusioned, he accepted the family title.

His failure to become a Holy Grail Knight left him with no choice but to succeed his family's title. However, over the years, he always felt that he was not pious enough and that was why he failed to become a Holy Grail Knight.

Therefore, Lawrence's devotion to the goddess was well-known throughout Cologne.

It was these devout nobles that Laun was worried about.

"Marquis Lawrence, be patient, you will know soon."

At this time, Alda walked to Laun's side.

Laun looked at him in confusion, and Alda leaned over and spoke in Laun's ear.

This is Adar showing his loyalty! Alpha said that no matter what happens, he and his family will be the most staunch supporters of Lawn.

Laun was surprised that Adal, a noble who had followed him for so long, actually knew the news in advance, but he soon realized that Adal's son Leo was with Morgiana's group from the beginning!
Laun felt that he had fallen completely into someone else's plan, but this was an open conspiracy, and he had to follow other people's ideas step by step.

"I understand, A'dar."

A'dal did not retreat back into the crowd, but stood beside Laun.

As everyone was waiting anxiously, the door of the conference hall was opened.

Several Holy Grail Knights who had obviously just experienced a battle walked in.

And following behind them was Morgiana!

"Lake Fairy!"

There was an exclamation in the hall.

The long-missing Morgiana came to Laun's side with several Terran soldiers.

"Mogiana..." Laun hesitated to speak.

"Laun, you know that change is bound to be painful, but without change, the Bretonnians will never be able to achieve true salvation!"

While on the Thunderhawk, Laun had argued with Morgiana about what to do next.

Obviously, Lawen had not recovered from the truth. He was still thinking about whether he could keep this matter secret and slowly eliminate Lilith's influence in Bretonnia.

But it was rejected outright by Mogiana.

From the Emperor she learned that the power of the Four Chaos Gods was far greater than she had imagined, and their influence on reality was deeper than expected!
In the northern Chaos Wasteland, a new Everchosen has already risen. Take your time? By then, it will be too late!

Not to mention that Lilith might also re-seduce those who are still kept in the dark, and they might then be labeled as traitors to the kingdom.

Now there is only one way, which is to endure the pain temporarily and completely eliminate the stubborn disease.

The Ultramarines and Terra's reinforcements will also become a sharp scalpel together with the awakened Bretonnians.

And for those who disagree… I’m sorry.

The structure of Barto's beliefs meant that it was only necessary to deal with a group of people. The serfs who did not believe in Lilith and made up the majority of the population might resist, but Zhang Heng didn't believe that they would not accept it as long as they could live a better life.

Without the influence of faith, the lower class people will only care about their own lives.

Zhang Heng didn't care about the knights and the noble class. Their fighting power might be considered strong among the human groups in the Middle Ages, but Zhang Heng had a better choice. With heavy vehicles such as tanks, the era of knights would eventually come to an end. Of course, the Holy Grail Knights were an exception. These medieval Astartes would continue to shine.

Zhang Heng has no problem finding too many people with truly high moral character, not to mention that these people's physical fitness far exceeds that of ordinary people.

They cannot be said to be as powerful as Space Marines, but they are definitely stronger than Astra Militarum. Too many super soldiers can be fatal.

"If these Holy Grail Knights drink my blood... or if we get a Gene Priest in there and try to get some gene seeds... with these guys' self-healing abilities, can they survive the transformation surgery? Maybe then we won't have to rely on faith to throw all the Space Marines in?"

He is still feeling the pain from the five months of consumption of these five Space Marines.

If he can save a little, he can save it and use it in other places.

At this time, Lawn said that he agreed, but it could be said that he was forced to make the choice.

This is because this may be the most correct choice at the moment, and it is also forced by the power of Space Marines and 40k creations.

"Everyone, Her Excellency Morgiana and I have something very important to announce!"

Lawn took a deep breath and said.

As Lawen spoke clearly about Lilith's affairs word by word, the conference room immediately became chaotic.

Everyone was in shock. The people who said these words were the two most powerful people in Bretonnia, and the most devoted believers of the goddess, the Holy Grail Knights, actually seemed to agree with them.

People in the conference hall had completely different reactions. Some stood there in a daze, some were unwilling to believe it, and some even behaved extremely radically!

For example, the Marquis named Lawrence.

"Lao En! What are you talking about! How can you slander the goddess like this!"

Even Lawn didn't expect that Lawrence would actually draw his sword and attack him.

But before Laun could make a move, Alda went straight to meet him.

The two swords collided with each other. Perhaps when he was young, Lawrence was a more powerful adventurous knight, but he is old now!

"Adar! Get out of my way! He is blaspheming the goddess!"

"Lawrence! Wake up! Lawrence is our king, and so is Lady Morgiana! Don't you realize that you are the one who is wrong? Don't you see the Holy Grail Knight standing here?"

"I don't believe it! Get out of here!"

The things a person has been pursuing all his life are suddenly discovered to be false. In the end, Lawrence couldn't withstand this blow!

"Buzz!"

A red beam of light directly penetrated Lawrence's body, and looking at the big hole in his chest, Lawrence fell to the ground in disbelief.

Seeing this man who had sacrificed so much for him die like this, Lao En still couldn't bear it!

"Enough! Morgiana! Why did you kill him? We can talk it out with him!"

"Laurence! Change will inevitably involve sacrifices! Do you think you can convince Lawrence?"

Seeing Lawrence falling to the ground, the remaining knights and nobles fell silent.

When the Holy Grail Knights began to testify to what Lawn and others said, the nobles had to slowly begin to accept this reality.

The hundreds of caravan guards brought by Otto also entered the castle of Laun with the latest weapons, and Rognar and others also walked in.

"Everyone, the news will be announced soon. All you have to do is do your best to maintain the stability of the kingdom!" Mogiana said after looking around at everyone.
