Heart of the Castle

Chapter 899 The end is approaching, disharmonious voices
While Levi Stern's voice was still echoing in the conference room, King Philip II of the Kingdom of Florence suddenly stood up, with a gentle and polite smile on his face, but let Zandora who was sitting aside The Grand Duke couldn't help shivering, although it was already late spring, and the fire was raging in the fireplace, the conference room was not cold at all.

"Honorable Regent of the Kingdom of Arthur, Your Excellency Levi Ston, who is invincible." When Philip II spoke, the Florentine knights immediately shut their mouths, and the number of knights in the Kingdom of Sigis was relatively large. In addition, there was not a recognized leader, and then the noise stopped, and the whole meeting room suddenly fell into a strange silence. Only Philip II seemed to be polite, but in fact he was very polite. Hidden with some mocking and hostile voices.

"First of all, I have to express my admiration for the sacrifices you made and the achievements you made in the great battle that was related to the life and death of all human nations the day before yesterday." Philip II put his hands on his chest and bowed pretentiously, " Your deeds will not be forgotten by the kingdom of Florence, nor, I suppose, by the kingdom of Deldes, nor by the kingdom of Sigis, nor by every human kingdom on the Continent. The Battle of the Dead Pass will be engraved in the writings of court scholars It will be passed down from ear to ear under the bard's lyre, and will be constantly mentioned in the streets and alleys, taverns, churches and palaces. After years of accumulation, it will eventually become an eternal legendary poem. "

Li Wei's expression looked very indifferent, and he was not interested in Philip II's almost flattering words. There was even a faint coldness in his eyes, which made the praise sitting next to Philip II Grand Duke Dora couldn't help rubbing his stomach, feeling that his internal organs had been pumped together.

"Your Majesty Philip II, you are honored." Li Wei replied in a calm tone, "I just did what I should do as the regent of the Kingdom of Arthur and a knight. Many people have paid more than me. We have made greater sacrifices and established greater achievements. But if all these sacrifices and achievements are to be passed down, we must first prevent the coming doomsday crisis, otherwise everything will be annihilated in the collapse of the world middle."

"Forgive me for not being able to agree with you, Your Excellency Levi Stern." Philip II bluntly expressed his objection. As soon as this sentence was uttered, there was a burst of whispering in the conference room, which belonged to Griffin The knights of the knight order glared at His Majesty the King of Flora, and some of them even put their hands on the hilt of their swords, revealing a threatening aura without any concealment.

Although Philip II was a titled knight with fighting spirit and genius, it was already more than ten years ago, and the generous king's life had already worn out his good strength.Therefore, when several griffin sub-group leaders headed by Dragonson issued a murderous aura at the same time, His Majesty the King couldn't help taking a step back in embarrassment, almost knocking over the seat behind him.

"Master Dragonson, steel fist knight, please pay attention to etiquette, and don't lose your composure in front of Her Majesty the Queen and Your Excellency the Prince Regent." Bamilian stood up with a smile on his face, persuading him gently, "Philip II His Majesty must have doubts about His Excellency Levi Ston's words, which is not surprising. After all, the proposal of handing over the command of the elite troops would have doubts in the heart of any person who holds great power. But this I'm afraid it's the only option that can deal with the doomsday crisis. Once that Thomas Jansen successfully merges with the godfather's godhead, it will be a terrible disaster for the whole world..."

"I've heard enough, Lord Bamilian, put away that set of vain lies!" Philip II's face was livid, and he interrupted the court chief's persuasion forcefully, "With the glory of Lord Flandra and the supreme In the name of God the Father, I don’t believe a single word of what you said. Now that the war is over, I have expressed my gratitude to the Kingdom of Arthur and His Excellency Levi Ston for allowing me to lead the Have the troops returned to the Kingdom of Floresa?"

"You can go back and leave the troops behind!" A voice suddenly sounded from the Griffin Knights' camp, and then several team leaders showed expressions of approval at the same time.

"Yes, His Majesty Philip II, you can go back and leave the troops behind!"

"Without some people pointing fingers here, maybe the chances of victory will be greater."

Philip II tried his best to put on a calm expression, instead of looking at the Griffin Knights, he stared firmly into Levi Stern's eyes, "Your Excellency Levi Ston, this is your last What do you mean? Knights of Florence, are you afraid of such a despicable and shameless threat?"

"We are not afraid!" A Florsa knight suddenly stood up and drew his sword out of its sheath.Then more than a dozen knights wearing wolf-headed antler helmets got up and formed a small circle around His Majesty Philip II. most tense.

The knights of the Kingdom of Sigis took the opportunity to stand up one after another, and some knights of the Kingdom of Deldes also stood up recklessly, and most of them turned their attention to Grand Duke Zandora.Grand Duke Zandora couldn't help showing a bitter smile. Although the Three Kingdoms of Glory were not without conflicts in private, their overall position was still consistent with the outside world. It's just that this tacit understanding may have come to an end now.

"Belongs to the Kingdom of Deldes, all sit down." Grand Duke Zandora did not have any more time to hesitate, and also expressed his position straightforwardly, "Your Majesty Philip II, you are playing with fire and gambling with the future of the entire world." A little personal selfishness. Think about it from another angle. If His Excellency Levi Stern wants to dominate the mainland, could it be that with the help of many legendary powerhouses of the Griffin Knights, as well as the dragons, elves and orcs, the mere Can the Glorious Alliance, which exists only in name only, be stopped?"

Philip II glanced at the camp of the guardian knights of the Shining Temple, and he saw that these knights wearing golden sunburst cloaks were silent one by one, and when his gaze swept over, the Hammer of Judgment let? Chief Layton raised his indifferent eyes and looked at each other, while Chief Ingram of the Condemnation Sword didn't even move the corners of his eyes.

"This group of goddamn sticks..." Philip II cursed in his heart, trying to control his expression, and at the same time admonishing himself—now he must continue to be tough, not show his cowardly side, and he needs to make a decision as soon as possible.He turned his head to Levi Ston with a blank expression, and said again in a cold tone, "Your Excellency Levi Ston, it seems that disagreements are inevitable. Let me ask you one last question. If I disagree with the If you have the right to send troops, will you not be able to leave Tarlon Fortress?"

This sentence was finally uttered. In broad daylight and in full view of everyone, this is a strong medicine to force Levi Stern to make a decision, and it is the best example to urge the rulers of the continental countries to make choices.

Li Wei subconsciously stroked the hilt of the knight's sword at his waist. This action almost caused several Florsa knights to strike preemptively. Fortunately, there were more rational people among them, and they moved at the fastest speed. Grab your partner's wrist.

A deep silence then engulfed the entire meeting room, and even the crackling flames in the fireplace seemed to exude a strange atmosphere.Li Wei subconsciously wanted to ask for Mr. Dish's opinion, but when there was no response to the call in his heart, a gloomy look flashed across his eyes.

"Mr. Dish... is no longer here." The young regent reminded himself softly, then raised his eyes calmly, and looked back at King Flora who was standing opposite him. "Your Majesty Philip II, I would like to ask if you have thought about the consequences of doing this? In the face of an evil god who is merging with the godhead of the father, every power may be an important chip that determines the outcome. If The Kingdom of Florsa refused to participate in this matter, leading to the real end of the world, can you face such consequences calmly?"

"Your words are so sincere that I almost believe it." Philip II twitched his lips, "Your Excellency Levi Ston, I want to leave here now. Are you planning to use force?" To prevent it? Or to allow us to leave freely?"

"Neither the Kingdom of Arthur nor I have the slightest intention to fight for the hegemony of the mainland..." Li Wei opened his mouth to defend himself for a while, and then shook his head helplessly when he saw Philip II's mocking eyes. "It seems that you are not ready to believe my words, His Majesty Philip II, then please leave with your subordinates, I hope you will not regret it."

"What a benevolent leader." The sarcasm in Philip II's tone has faded a lot, but it can still be easily detected by others, "Your Excellency Levi Ston, now I believe that you are not interested in mainland hegemony." No delusions, I hope this will not cause an undue rift in the relationship between the kingdom of Florsa and the kingdom of Arthur."

"Cracks have appeared since the time you stepped out of this meeting room." Li Wei replied bluntly. He didn't understand how to respond in diplomatic terms, but now he didn't bother to perfuse anyone. "Your Majesty Philip II, I hope your journey back to the country goes well, but let me remind you one last time that the doomsday crisis is not speculation or fabrication. Before you leave the fortress, you still have a chance to turn back."

"Save your chance, Your Excellency Levi Ston." Philip II raised his chin arrogantly, leading the knights of the Kingdom of Flores out of the meeting room, while the knights of the Kingdom of Sigis Looking at each other, a few people seemed to want to follow, but more people hesitated.After all, Li Wei Ston had never acted deceitfully and fraudulently, and the knights of the Sigis Kingdom, who lacked a backbone, finally chose to sit back after discussing softly.
