Sickly lady in wheelchair, but God

In the process, Farodius achieved his goal.

He not only lowered the status of those nobles invisibly, but also made many civilians have a new cognition.

"Walter's father used to farm with me, and his grandfather was also a farmer. I don't believe that his family has any noble blood, but now he has the same status as those nobles through business. Hey, maybe my son can be like this in the future."

"Will I no longer be bullied by the nobles if I join the Grand Council?"

"It seems that the nobles are nothing special. Even the guy I beat before can stand on equal footing with them."

Farodius was happy, but the people in the family who controlled the positions of tribal chiefs were not so happy.

This is not reform at all; it is clearly a huge rock from outer space falling on their heads!

They are staunch believers in the theory of bloodline. It's ridiculous that a group of untouchables can now discuss state affairs with them!

Not to mention these untouchables, even those clans in the tribe that did not cooperate with them very much now have legitimate reasons to join forces with others to cause trouble.

"He's from the spicy next door!"

"We helped this pariah, Farodius, to reach his current high position. We also helped him consolidate his rule after we hyped him up as a pariah and made him a pariah of noble descent. Is this how he repays us now?"

"I want to expose his true face. He is just a lowly child born by a peasant woman. He has no right to be king at all!"

idiot!

Chirac was speechless.

Previously we said that Pharodius’ ancestors were of noble blood and were destined to become king. Now we say that we were wrong before and that Pharodius’ ancestors were nothing. Who do you think we are slapping in the face?

Isn't it still ours?

Chirac didn't think such words could cause much harm to Farodius.

Will the common people who shout "Hero King" care about this?

Most of them wouldn't care at all, and they might even wish that Farodius was born a commoner.

After this publicity, they are about to run into problems.

The common people would think, you said you got the bloodline of Pharodius wrong, but is it possible that you got your own bloodline wrong as well, and that your bloodline is not noble either?

But that’s not the point now.

Today, Farodius can push for reforms in the Council of Ten to divide their political power. If they do not respond at all, Farodius will dare to divide their military power through other means tomorrow.

Once the military power is divided, the next step will be to control them at will.

Therefore, they absolutely cannot give in at this time.

Fight back, you must fight back immediately, fight back hard!

……

The nobles' counterattack was still assassination, but this time their target was not Farodius, but Ingrid.

As long as Ingrid was killed, the only possible heirs for Farodius would be Brutus and Mellie. The other child was too young to be considered.

In short, given the uselessness of these two people, even if they are temporarily suppressed to a certain extent, they will be able to make back all their money with interest in the future.

The nobles also had concerns. They did not dare to rebel rashly and compete with Farodius on the battlefield.

It would be fine if they win, but if they lose, the accumulation of several generations, or even ten generations, will turn to ashes. Who can bear such a thing? Not everyone has the courage to take this gamble.

Although Chirac wanted to solve the problem with war, his own strength could not shake the will of the entire aristocracy. The Sextus tribe alone could not defeat the current Farodius, so he could only go with the flow.

In fact, this is a good thing. When carrying out a new round of assassination plans, he can help his father organize the troops and secretly contact other helpers.

The throne is a good thing, and he would like to sit on it if he has the chance, but being a regent would be too little fun.

Summer of AD 335.

As Ingrid was walking slowly on a remote path, a group of assassins suddenly jumped out from the side.

They were wearing black clothes, with a piece of cloth covering their faces, and their right hands were holding weapons of various shapes. As soon as they appeared, they silently and swiftly pounced on Ingrid.

Agile and ruthless!

If it were an ordinary person or a low-level bloodline warrior, they would most likely be killed on the spot after encountering this level of assassination.

Unfortunately, Ingrid is not an ordinary person.

Bai Ying's strength is not that great, but Hei Ying's strength is considered to be top-notch even among all the witches.

As a sharp dagger was about to pierce Ingrid's chest and a look of joy appeared on the face of the assassin, an extremely strange scene slowly unfolded in front of the eyes of all the participants.

Ok.

Expand!

A dark red flower bloomed on Ingrid's chest, just blocking the dagger's path.

Ding!

Under the impact of the reaction force, the dagger was directly bounced away.

By the time the assassin realized something was wrong, it was too late.

"It's still assassination. Don't you have any other tricks? It seems that I still overestimated you."

Ingrid's eyes turned deep black and she licked the corner of her mouth with a smile.

The person is still the same person, but her temperament is completely different from before. If Ingrid just now still had a bit of innocence that was inconsistent with her age, then the Ingrid now gives people a feeling of fear and madness.

"You you you...what did you do?"

The assassins were so frightened that the light in their eyes began to tremble violently.

They were surprised by the flower blooming on Ingrid's chest, but what made them even more uneasy was the black "slime" spreading from Ingrid's shadow.

The "slime" embedded itself into their shadows without them realizing it, and by the time they realized what was happening, they had already lost control of their bodies.

"Judging by the witch's promotion sequence, I should be considered the third level now."

The first sequence, the one who is blessed with secret medicine, has his body transformed into the appearance of a witch.

The second sequence, the weaver, can create illusions, manipulate the senses of life, and guide the emotions of life.

The third sequence, the witch, begins to master some more transcendent abilities, such as shadow magic, crystal magic, etc.

Hei Ying hasn't explored her own abilities enough, but a shadow magic is enough for her to indulge in it. The ability to control the other person's body like a tentacle is so cool!

"Let's start with you."

Hei Ying set her sights on the assassin closest to her.

The assassin turned pale with fright, he had no idea what was going on. Intelligence showed that Ingrid had only fused a bloodline that could enhance her senses, and her own strength was not strong. But judging from the current situation, Ingrid was simply so strong that they could not understand!

No, no, no, I don’t want to die yet!

"Don't come over..."

The assassin's voice stopped abruptly halfway through his shout.

In fact, Hei Ying did not move at all, but under the influence of the black "slime" transformed by the witch's power, the controlled assassin raised his hands unconsciously and then strangled his own neck.

Push harder, keep pushing harder, even if your face turns red, keep pushing harder!

The other assassins were almost scared crazy. What did they see? They saw that under Ingrid's influence, their companion actually strangled himself to death!

Can a person really strangle himself to death with his own hands?

"Monster, you are a monster!"

Ah.

Hei Ying didn't care about being scolded. As a witch, she was indeed a monster in the eyes of others. Even as an individual, Ingrid was like a monster compared to her other self.

But that's not important.

She just wanted to kill a few people to vent her anger.

What shitty nobility, what shitty humans, kill kill kill kill kill!

She used shadow magic to kill the assassins one by one. When she was halfway through, the remaining assassins wailed and confessed their origins and purposes, but she still did not stop until all the assassins were killed.

"Oh, what a pity. I shouldn't have been so cruel. I could have turned them all into vampires. Never mind."

Black Ying strung the bodies together and dragged them directly to Farodius.

"They wanted to kill me."

"???"

Farodius was stunned.

He knew that Ingrid was capable of getting rid of the assassin, but wasn't it a bit absurd to strangle them all to death and then string them up with ropes and throw them in front of him?

"Send the troops, I can't wait to string the rest of the people together!"

Hei Ying was eager to try and smiled brightly.

This made Farodius sweat. He seemed to see again the fierce little girl from his childhood who dared to rush out and fight when faced with hundreds of people besieging her.

Time flies so fast. Eighteen years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Eighteen years ago, he and Ingrid stood together and faced the enemy together.

Eighteen years later, he still stood with Ingrid and faced the enemy together.

There is nothing to fear anymore!

Farodius smiled and said, "No hurry, now is not the time yet. We need to get more people on our side. Now we just need to continue to implement reforms. When they can't stand it anymore and start a rebellion, that's when we will come forward to eliminate them!"

Under his chairmanship, the Grand Council was formally established and completely replaced the original powers of the Council of Ten. In the Grand Council, he continued to actively promote reforms to the military system. The main purpose was to limit the power of the chiefs and delegate more of the chiefs' power to the various clans in the tribe.

This is digging up the roots of those top nobles.

As expected, after a period of silence, the tribes led by the Sextus tribe directly rebelled.

Thanks to Farodius's previous arrangements, many people in each tribe did not join the rebellion. They had already successfully entered the Great Council. If they joined the rebellion now, their entire family would be ruined if they lost, and they would not be able to make any further progress even if they won. Why bother?

"it's time!"

A gleam of light flashed in Farodius' eyes. This was the moment he had been waiting for.

The fate of the world depends on this one move.

Army attack!

30 Black Ying and Alsophila attack from the front and back, a perfect combination of swords! [5500]

The kingdom's army had been prepared for a long time, and upon receiving the order to attack, they immediately pounced out as ferociously as tigers and wolves.

The situation on the tribal nobles' side was different. Although they had made some preparations beforehand, they did not anticipate the various countermeasures of Farodius, so when they finally launched their army, they seemed a little hasty.

The most hasty part showed that they had not joined forces, which was exactly what Pharodius wanted to see.

In fact, even if he let those tribal soldiers gather together and fight him in a fair battle on the plains, he would be confident of victory.

He didn't want to brag about how good he was at commanding operations. The fundamental reason was that the soldiers of the kingdom's army were better than those of the soldiers of the various tribes in terms of both individual quality and coordination level.

Also, in this civil war, the tribal soldiers were fighting an invasion, while the soldiers of the kingdom army were defending their homes. The fighting spirit was not at the same level from the beginning.

With so many advantages, he didn't need to use any conspiracy. He could win by simply advancing on the front battlefield.

The only question is whether the main force of the rebels can be wiped out in one battle.

If the rebels were allowed to escape, there would be trouble in the future. Although the roaming rebel army could no longer cause major waves, wherever they passed, there would be constant disasters and heavy civilian casualties.

The Kingdom of Vistapa seems powerful, but this is only compared with other tribes and barbarians in the surrounding area. In fact, its population is far less than that of the orcs.

Farodius did not want this civil war to have too great an impact on people's livelihood, thus giving the surrounding barbarians and orcs an opportunity to invade. He started the war to solve the people who created the problems, not to create new problems.

The situation is pretty good now. He can rush in quickly before those tribal soldiers gather together and defeat them one by one.

Well, there is no need to defeat all the rebels.

Don't be fooled by the fact that these rebels are coming in full force, saying that the Hero King has been blinded by the evil and they want to rescue the Hero King, but in fact they are just holding on.

As long as a few leading rebel forces are defeated, the remaining rebels will immediately lay down their arms and surrender.

If they surrender, most people can still have a chance to survive. If they don’t surrender, even the main force will be gone. If they continue to fight hard, won’t they just be asking for death?

The war went just as Pharodius had expected.

After taking control of the tribal nobles in Vistapa who had not yet had time to escape, he immediately led his troops to attack the rebel force closest to Vistapa.
