Chapter 124, New Journey

PS. Next, there will be a part of the 40K plot. Readers who are not very clear can watch it patiently. I will try to describe this plot as briefly as possible.

The interior of the banquet fell silent, and everyone was watching the incident.

The crowd gathered around, but most of them gave Julius a bad look. In any case, it is not something a nobleman should do directly at a banquet, and Julius was a little impulsive.

Only Ryan found the archbishop of the Church of the Sea calmly: "Your Excellency Aldrich, I think the House of Lords in Marienburg has made a very big mistake. The chaotic corruption on Baron Edmund has obviously not been purified. On the contrary, he is committed to Spread his depraved ideas."

Before the Archbishop of Sea God had time to answer, Schultz appeared, and the Grand Duke of Marienburg said in an angry voice: "I said at the time that Edmund would be dealt with severely, but you didn't agree, look at him now What a big deal?!"

The members of the House of Lords mourned their misfortune and angered them. The reason they advocated not to punish Edmund was also because these big businessmen had more or less unclean things in their hands. What about them?

The favor of the old Earl of Huron is one aspect, and their desire to protect themselves is another aspect.

Ryan highlighted Edmund's remarks, and then he said to everyone at the banquet:

"Here, I would like to ask you gentlemen and ladies, what does human beings rely on to survive on this continent, what does human beings rely on to prosper, is it based on what this Mr. Edmund said? Cherish life? Is it relying on Mr. Edmund's words of being wise and safe? Is it relying on him to smear his face to scare off the army of chaos?"

No one dared to answer yes, and no one dared to speak for Edmund.

Because this guy has touched the absolutely wrong area, maybe some nobles have this idea in their hearts, but at this juncture, they must have a clear-cut stand, and they must even be more resolute than everyone else.

"Absolutely not!"

"It is war, courage, and faith that make mankind come to this day."

"He's a fallen man!"

"Destroy him!"

Everyone at the banquet began to denounce Edmund. When Ivan, the Duke of Griffin, also asked the Marienburg Lords about this matter, everyone in the Lords knew what they had to do.

"We will give an explanation to the empire. The souls of the fallen must be completely purified in the flames." Edmund had been beaten unconscious by Julius' furious fist, and the bridge of his nose was broken. So the members of the Senate "friendly" helped Edmund make a decision, that is, he will be executed at the stake, and the title of Baron Huron will be inherited by others.

The result of this treatment was so-so, so the Duke of Griffon nodded in agreement.

"Your Excellency Julius, Marquis of Winford, although we can understand your feelings, we cannot accept your radical behavior. We hope you can remain calm elsewhere." Similarly, Julius who made radical behavior He was also punished, and he was invited to leave the banquet. The knight of the kingdom walked outside without saying a word.

The title of the Empire is Baron-Viscount-Earl-Duke-Elect-Emperor, and the title of Brittania is Baron-Earl-Marquis (Special)-Duke-King, generally known as the first heir of a great noble It is the second level of this noble title, so both Julius and Suria can call them Marquis.

Except for the hereditary titles conferred by the duke and the emperor, Ludwig stipulated that the titles of the military nobles would be reduced from generation to generation, so most of the nobles served to ensure their status, especially in Britannia. It is rare to hear that there are nobles in the Kingdom of Knights who can't ride a horse or hold a lance.

Seeing this, Ryan also left the banquet with Julius, followed by the Holy Grail Knight Jules and his sister Suria. The female knight trotted out with her long skirt, and her high heels made a clicking sound: " brother,

I was wrong! Brother, wait for me. "

"Come here! Julius!" Holy Grail Knight Jules was angry. He called Julius over and scolded him. Julius just lowered his head and endured silently.

The night in early spring was still very cold. Seeing this, the female knight was anxious and even blamed herself very much. She said, "Your Excellency Ules, this is all my fault..."

Who knew that Jules and Ryan said at the same time: "This is not your problem."

"???" The two Holy Grail knights looked at each other, and then Jules said to Ryan, "Talk to Miss Aintree."

"Ahem~ This is not your problem, Miss Suria." Ryan coughed, cleared his language, and then said: "Yuli's intention is good, he doesn't want you to be polluted by that fallen person, but he The method is wrong."

"The method is wrong?" The female knight raised her head and looked at the man in front of her.

"First of all, he underestimated your judgment. He thought you might be influenced by that guy's depraved remarks, but in fact, I can see that you were not affected by Edmond's remarks. Yuli was too impulsive. Ryan frowned, and then continued: "Then, he shouldn't hit people directly. From this point of view, he violated the lady's teaching. He just cares too much about you."

"It's because my brother cares about me that I..." The female knight was about to say something, Ryan just shook his head: "Everyone must be responsible for what they do. He is already a twenty-six-year-old knight of the kingdom. It’s a mistake, there’s no need for you to share the responsibility, you know it in your heart, and Yuli knows it too.”

Suria stopped talking. The meaning of Ryan's words was obvious. Everyone is an independent individual and should be responsible for their own actions. Dazed head, so made the wrong way to deal with.

"Your Excellency Ryan, please don't take it to heart. My brother just cares about me. He is not that kind of person." Suria turned her brother to speak kindly to Ryan, and the female knight apologized softly.

"I know, the relationship between you brothers and sisters is really good." Ryan smiled slightly: "I understand."

"thanks."

…………

After the night's farce passed, Ryan returned home. The three maids at home had already packed up the things in the house. Ryan didn't have many things, and he still had a space ring.

He ended up sitting in the living room of the house at 53 Amber Avenue, Marienburg, and stared blankly for a while.

Last October, he and Teresa came to Fort Marien to hunt down Belt.

After that, he experienced a series of things, one battle after another, and there was no lack of fighting wits and courage with many people in many places. This big battle can be regarded as a relatively perfect end to his journey in Marienburg.

There are still many things waiting for him. He has never forgotten his mission. He knows why he came here. There are too many secrets in his heart, but Ryan knows that there is no rush for all this, and the meal must be eaten bite by bite. He has gone from the adopted son of a Nord bumpkin lord to the Grail Knight of Brittania, Baron Jean, his limelight is now unparalleled on the continent, and many bards tell his story, his hero The feat was adapted into poetry by many artists, and even the ambassador of the high elves came over to have a drink with him today, expressing congratulations from the high elves.

It's time to embark on a new journey. Although Marienburg is prosperous, it is not a place to live for a long time. He will go to the country opposite the Gray Mountains. His identity is destined to be hard to get ahead in the empire, so let's go to Brittania ! There are opportunities of their own.

The house will be handed over to Schultz, the Grand Duke of Marienburg and Ryan to make regular contact, and he will cooperate with Ryan's actions.

Early the next morning, Ryan packed his things. He had already ordered a large carriage. This large carriage could not only store goods, but also hold his three maids. Among the three maids, except Emilia Basically, they have no fighting ability, so it is better for them to stay in the carriage.

At noon, the Britannian army, which had finished its meal, officially embarked on the journey back to its hometown from Fort Marien. Although Fort Marien is not far from Britannia, it will take more than ten days to walk.

The ranger knights were quite surprised when they saw Ryan's maids. They didn't think that Ryan's three maids were too many, but they felt that there were fewer. These days, which knight's house doesn't have many maids? They were surprised that there was a dark elf among the maids.

All the way south, the early spring season is full of busy farmers. Every year, spring plowing is the most important moment. Whether the harvest of the year is good or not depends on the present. It is precisely because of this that the empire lacks enough resources to fight against the greenskins. The army had to seek reinforcements from Brittania.

After spending a few days passing Fort Lyman and Collerson, where they had previously fought, the knights entered the Pale Sisters Mountains.

Today they will camp in the mountains.

"Rangers! Come with me a few!" People were coming and going in the camp, and the knights loudly ordered the serfs to camp and cook. At the same time, the rangers followed the knights to scout the enemy around. I haven't seen too many enemies, and the small group of bandits often turn around and run away when they see this army, so the road is considered quiet.

Ryan's tent and the Holy Grail Knight Jules' tent were in the innermost and safest place. The knights expressed their respect to the two Holy Grail Knights in this way. Among them, Ryan's tent was slightly larger, about fifteen square meters.

When Ryan finished his inspection, the sky was already full of stars, and he pulled up the curtain of the tent, and he smelled a strong fragrance: "What is so fragrant?"

"It's toast! Mr. Ryan." Emilia delivered the baked bread to Ryan, and then took out an iron box: "This is roast chicken."

"Master!" Miranda and Orika also bowed their heads and said, the dark elves are not quite used to their situation.

"Well, I've worked hard all the way." Ryan smiled and nodded towards his three maids. They changed back to their normal clothes in the wild, cold-resistant cotton coats and leather pants and boots. The weather in early spring is still very cold, especially When passing through the mountains, you can also see the white snow of the Pale Sisters during the day.

After a simple dinner, several people had nothing to do in the dark night, but to sleep. Among them, Ryan arranged for the dark elf to sleep next to him out of concern for Orika, while Emilia and Miranda It was sleeping at the other end of the tent.

Not long after he lay down, a strong throbbing and psionic impact stung Ryan's nerves. The Primarch frowned in pain, struggled to get up, and covered his head with his hands.

"What's the matter? Master?" The camp outside was quiet, only the sound of burning flames and the voices of night watch knights and soldiers. Olika was awakened by Ryan's movements, and the sleep of the dark elves was always relatively light.

"It's okay, you continue to sleep, I can't sleep, go out and have a look." Ryan pressed Olika's shoulder and said warmly.

The dark elf was a little strange, but she knew she couldn't do anything, so she could only nod her head in agreement and continue to sleep.

Ryan changed his clothes and walked out of the tent, alarming the knights who were watching the night: "Mr. Ryan? What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I want to go out for a walk." Ryan was preoccupied. He could feel his blood and bones resonating strongly. It was like a cloud of fog, and nothing could be seen clearly.

The Primarch looked up at the starry sky, the night sky was full of stars, and the boundless starry sky showed brilliance and splendor towards Ryan.

"It seems, what happened?" Ryan muttered to himself.

…………

Ride through the eternal warp storm, through countless galaxies and cosmic voids.

Milky Way, Solar System, Divine Terra.

The human empire created by the Emperor, the Lord of Humanity, is facing another crisis of extinction.

The Cadian Gate has fallen.

This planet has always guarded the "Eye of Terror", the link between reality and the Warp. With the complete destruction of the Cadian Gate, even greater darkness fell on the entire galaxy.

The Imperium had never seen such a warp storm in its history, and terror struck hundreds of planets, their last desperate calls being received before all communications - even interstellar channeling - were silenced.

Billions of scribes and curators search for answers. They delved into the records of long neglect, opening even the oldest cellars. No explanation or consolation to be found, only some filtered comparisons. This Ruinous Storm had torn apart the galaxy during the Horus Heresy, but humanity was divided as it is only once: the Age of Strife. Its scant presentation has frustrated scholars. Little is known about that nightmarish era, but surviving fragments describe a time at the end of history when humanity was all but wiped out and the few survivors were enslaved or degenerated into barbarians. That was the end of civilization.

The beating chaos almost cut the Milky Way in two, endless Chaos Demon Army poured out from the Eye of Terror, and countless star regions sent distress signals... It was even completely silent, and the other half of the Milky Way had even completely lost contact.

In this dark age, in this desperate age, mankind can only pray to their Supreme Emperor for salvation.

But at this moment, a terrible news from the Mechanicus nearly drove the entire Terra High Council and Inquisition mad.

The mysterious machinery that carried the rotting remains of the Emperor stopped working, completely, stopped working.

Endless darkness permeates the hearts of all, and even the most pure and devout imperial bishops are shrouded in the deepest and most terrible fear.

Has our supreme lord, our god-emperor, abandoned us?

No, never in eleven thousand years has the Astronomical Torch from Holy Terra been as bright as it is today, according to reports from astropaths.

The always long and intense meeting fell silent, and finally, the high lords who controlled the empire made a final decision, the most desperate one.

They asked to enter the palace to face the saint.

Next, a new journey begins! Ask for a ticket!
