A soldier suddenly pointed forward. A convoy was coming towards them and a red lion flag flying high could be seen from afar.
Considering that the journey might be slow, Li Tianxiu sent back a Templar Knight before setting off and asked him to bring some reinforcements from the royal capital.
But most of the people present were wary of the Esoteric Cult, so it was not appropriate to send someone directly, so the knight who went was Reinhardt's disciple.
Now, they come to deliver the horses.
"Shizuki? Didn't you go to the Holy City? Why are you here?"
The leader of the team was Drake. He rode an armored warhorse and walked towards the crowd majestically. He looked down at Li Tianxiu with a slightly puzzled look in his eyes.
But before he could hear the answer, Reinhardt pulled him off the horse and pressed his face to the ground.
"How dare you do this to me? Do you know who my father is?"
Drake had a mouthful of mud in his mouth. He struggled hard but couldn't resist. He asked angrily, "Someone help me!"
"I am your father!"
Reinhardt was so angry that he slapped his helmet so hard that it dented, and scolded him: "I haven't disciplined you for too long, and now you start to bully others? Kneel down!"
When he joined the expedition, he only brought his closed disciple with him, not Drake.
One of them didn't want to be left behind, and the other knew that this guy was a piece of cake. When faced with real difficulties, he would not have the will to fight to the death.
Now when he compares himself with Li Tianxiu, he feels more and more disgusted with her.
"Father...Father?"
Drake's hands were freed, but the arrogance on his face instantly turned into fear. He asked in confusion, "What did I do wrong?"
“Everyone in front of you is eligible to receive the Imperial Medal.
If you don't know what respect is, you won't be a noble in the future.
I'll find you a piece of land so you can learn what humility is!" Reinhardt scolded.
Although Drake was the leader of the reinforcements, he did not dismount when he saw the commander-in-chief of the army, but instead questioned him in a condescending manner. According to the law, this behavior is enough to put him in jail and make him suffer.
"I... don't want to! I don't want to be a farmer..."
Drake was still a little unconvinced after being humiliated in front of everyone.
But when he saw the murderous eyes of the soldiers behind him, the anger that had just built up disappeared completely, and he knelt obediently on the ground.
"Ugh……"
Reinhardt sighed helplessly and said to Li Tianxiu: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."
"Being a father means facing these things, even if it's a little late now."
Li Tianxiu looked at Drake meaningfully, and took his men to take over the carriage.
And with these resources, they can finally take the corpses back to the human realm before they start to stink.
……
There was singing and dancing in the magnificent palace.
King Riemann was slumped in the first seat, with his arms around his disheveled concubine, making her face blush with shame.
In the guest seats below, the kingdom's important officials also held a palace maid in each hand, eating the grapes fed to them, looking at the dancers in front of them with comfort, their dazed faces full of drunkenness.
"Your Majesty, after the fall of the Gareth family, what will happen to their fiefdom?"
An important official whose family emblem was a cuckoo was holding a wine glass with a very lazy posture.
"Kino, I remember that you hate war the most, right? Have you changed your personality?" Riemann laughed.
"I can't help it. I've spent too much money recently and I'm a bit tight on money. If I could be allocated funds, I could let my men guard the border on behalf of the Gareth family." Duke Kino answered truthfully.
As one of the few remaining dukes in the Oman Empire, Kino also knows that this world can't last much longer.
Therefore, instead of working diligently to be a good lord, it is better to enjoy life early and be happier every day.
"Hey, hey, hey, Riemann, this is not fair. There are so many of us here, why don't you at least ask for my opinion?" The noble with the peony family emblem raised an objection.
"Hey! The king has already agreed, are you going to disobey him?"
Taking advantage of his drunkenness, Duke Kino slapped the table, scaring the dancers to stop.
"Hahaha, there's no need to rush."
Riemann stood up shakily and said to the dancers below: "Keep playing the music, keep dancing."
"Hi……"
Kino took a long breath, then bowed his head to Liman and said, "Please forgive me, King. I am a little drunk."
“You are all my brothers, I will never treat you unfairly.
Life is good, so enjoy it to the fullest. Let's finish this banquet first, and we can talk about the border issues later." Riemann raised his glass.
The evil land was spreading, but it had nothing to do with him, at least not yet.
he already……
I don't really want to care about it.
"Oh, a feast of wine and women? A silver party?"
The door of the hall was suddenly pushed open, and Li Tianxiu walked in expressionlessly, followed by Reinhardt, Arnold and others.
"you……"
King Liman sobered up instantly, threw away the wine in his hand, and asked in surprise: "You are back?! How is the matter going?"
"I have done my duty, my king."
Li Tianxiu performed a noble salute and finally replied: "We have conquered the holy city, and their god Adokula has been beheaded by our sword. His head has been transported back to the capital, and you can have a look at it later."
"what?!"
"The Holy City was captured?!"
The nobles present all changed color. Instead of feeling happy at all, they looked at the few people in horror, as if a disaster was about to happen.
"Great! Great!"
Only Riemann stood up excitedly and praised Li Tianxiu, "The empire is saved now!
You have done a great job! Tell me, what do you want? I will give you everything! "
"Of course there is something you want."
Li Tianxiu looked into his eyes meaningfully: "But before that, I want to ask you, will you do anything for this country?"
"of course!"
King Riemann patted his chest with a solemn oath.
"Well."
Li Tianxiu nodded with satisfaction, raised his hand and said, "Please give me your head."
Chapter 309 This chapter is decapitation, children please watch it accompanied by their parents
"Be bold!"
Upon hearing Li Tianxiu's request, the palace guards immediately drew their swords and stood in front of Riemann.
The dancers scattered and Duke Kino stood up, drawing the guards' spare sword: "These bastards must have escaped back halfway, they must be handed over to the cult!"
"What a bunch of liars! Order their execution!" Duke Peony also echoed.
For these nobles, the esoteric cult is an existence that absolutely cannot be provoked.
Anyone who claims to have captured the holy city must be sent back to the church for punishment!
"Do you... do you know what you are talking about?"
Riemann's face turned pale and blue, and a nameless anger rose in his heart.
He is the king!
How can we allow such a joke?
If he hadn't been afraid of Reinhardt standing next to him, he might have already lost his temper.
"You may not believe it, but look at her."
Li Tianxiu stepped aside, put his hand on Joanna's shoulder, and said expressionlessly: "This is Joanna from the Strong family. She went to participate in the baptism in the Holy City three years ago and has been cruelly tortured by the secret cult until now.
I have brought back more than eighty people who have suffered the same fate as her.
They can prove how we captured the Holy City and how we blocked nearly 200,000 demons with only 300 people."
"Three hundred people hold back a wave of two hundred thousand demons?!"
"Are you kidding!"
The nobles sneered, their eyes filled with disdain.
Even the most powerful Gareth family would need 10,000 men to resist a tide of 200,000 demons.
Three hundred people versus two hundred thousand?
Who would believe it!
Only Li Man looked very serious and said in a deep voice: "How can you prove that she is real?"
"I don't need to prove anything to you. I'm only saying all this because I think of your many years of contributions and I'm giving you the right to know."
Li Tianxiu looked at his face calmly and continued, “The arrival of a new era requires the power to move forward together.
And you fabricated lies and allowed the descendants of the nobles to die. This can give an explanation to all the victims and consolidate the rule of the new emperor."
"what?!"
Hearing the name "new emperor", the king's heart skipped a beat and he immediately ordered, "Kill them! Let all the guards come in!"
The commanders of the royal guards all drew their swords, but were soon enveloped by the Eye of Madness.
But Elden was able to fight two commanders alone, Reinhardt's martial arts were even better than his, and with the presence of masters such as Li Tianxiu, Chen Yaxi, Xia Ya and Arnold, they quickly suppressed the situation.
"Do not!!!"
King Liman was pinned to the ground, struggling unwillingly: "I am only doing this for the continuation of the empire! If I hadn't done this, this place would have been occupied by the evil land long ago!"
"Yes, their sacrifice brought the empire a chance to breathe, so the new king will make the same decision as you, now..."
Li Tianxiu paused, squatted down in front of Li Man with her skirt pressed down, and said, "It's your turn."
From the perspective of human survival, Riemann's decision was not wrong.
But the problem is that the people who actually solved the source were the ones who were deeply hurt by his decisions.
The Gareth family guarded the border for more than 20 years, but almost ended up with their bloodline cut off and were forced to rebel.
Even if Arnold and Char could understand and were willing to give Li Tianxiu some face, it would be impossible for them to completely let go of the resentment of their tribesmen being massacred.
Not to mention the rescued victims like Joanna, some of them have suffered torture for more than three years and may never forget it in their entire lives.
Unless all these people are dealt with, the truth behind them will be a thorn in the hearts of all those who are uninformed.
Therefore, rather than giving an explanation to Riemann, the subjects of this country need an explanation more.
This is the struggle between kings, there is no absolute mercy or justice.
"No! You can't do this to me!"
Riemann struggled excitedly, but was soon taken away by the soldiers of the Galles family.
"poor guy……"
Chen Yaxi has a simple mind and still feels a little bit reluctant.
"Look at Joanna, then look at the extravagant banquet here, and think again whether he is pitiful or not." This was all Q could remind her.
Chen Yaxi pursed her lips when she heard that, and her expression changed slightly.
Perhaps it is true as she said, this country is no longer suitable for Riemann to lead.
"Thank you, Miss Youmu."
Arnold looked at Li Tianxiu and felt grateful.
