Act 457 Winter I

"Huh?"

"What's wrong?" The female swordsman's hoarse voice whispered in Hainfu's ear.

"Nothing, I saw a few acquaintances." Hainfu gave in without leaving any trace. This small gesture made the female swordsman feel a little admiration in her eyes.

Hainf was wondering in his heart. He saw the wizard, but how could his brother Colin Montolo be with them? He was hesitating whether to go down and say hello, but there were so many people in the square that he might not be able to find anyone if he went down. After hesitating for a long time, he still didn't move.

"Aren't you going to say hello?" the female swordsman said softly in his ear.

"No, no need, let's talk about it later." Hainf felt several jealous and crazy eyes around him falling on him.

The female swordsman smiled slightly.

Count Tonigel raised his hand, and the crowd suddenly became completely silent.

Seeing this scene, Hainfu secretly admired: "I dare say," he said to the female swordsman, "there will not be any lord in Eruin with such prestige."

"I heard that the eldest son of the king is not also known for his wisdom?"

"This is not about wisdom, Miss Claudia, but the confidence to win. Do you know why Lord Sword Master Darus is still remembered by ordinary people decades later? Because he convinced the Cruz people. Eruin People need such heroes, as if we can draw courage and confidence from them, proving that we can also achieve the cause like the late Lord Ek."

"You know a lot, sir."

This compliment made Hainfu feel light, as if his bones were a few ounces lighter.

The residents of Tonigel stared intently at their lord, and the young man on the horse enjoyed the gaze.

Hainf saw the man's age clearly and couldn't help being surprised, thinking that Count Tonigel was so young. However, the people around him seemed to take it for granted, and he was embarrassed to raise his doubts for fear of being regarded as a country bumpkin.

It's a pity that Hainf doesn't have a communication crystal in his hand, otherwise a poem written by him in his current mood would be:

"How can I pretend to see Lord Tonigel often?

Waiting online,

Very urgent. "

Count Tonigel wore a silver mask that looked like a masquerade ball. But the outline of his lower face is completely familiar to people.

He was silent for a long time.

There seemed to be a silent power accumulating in the air.

Then he spoke: "It's been a long time since I left Leng Shiling. A lot of things have happened during this time. You must want to know why."

The crowd was slightly commotion, this beginning was somewhat beyond their expectations.

Hainf was also stunned. This was not the inspiring speech he had imagined.

In the square, Luolint and Little Montolo were stretching their necks and looking in that direction, trying to see the count's face clearly.

"Your Majesty the Earl is so young."

"Strange. Why does it look familiar?"

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh," the two people whispering to each other.

And if looks could kill, Akane's cold eyes had already pierced the imposter and knocked him down. She looked back and killed the two blind lord's nominal students in front of her again.

Brando held her hand, turned back and looked at the other end of the square.

The words of 'Count Tonigel' still echoed in the square, making a buzzing sound.

"The reason is very simple," the young man said with a sneer on his lips, using magic to expand every byte of himself to the entire Lengshan Castle, and his voice roared and echoed in the sky:

"Because someone betrayed me, it was the ungrateful royal family of Corcova—"

It was like a strong wind blowing across the square. The square suddenly became silent.

Silence, absolute silence, in a square where thousands of people gathered, it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Bang! Hainf unexpectedly stood up from his seat, his chair overturned behind him,

Then tripped him. Hainf fell heavily to the floor, and the swordswoman let out a scream. He rushed over and tried to lift him up from the ground.

The movement here was like the first domino falling, triggering an entire chain reaction. It was like a bomb being thrown into the crowd. After a moment of silence, the crowd erupted with a sound hundreds of times louder than before. .

There were whispers of disbelief and then almost panic. More people are feeling uneasy and confused. They asked each other to confirm whether they were delusional.

Hainfudan was on the ground, and there was a voice buzzing in his head.

"This is impossible!"

"Eruin is finished." Another gloomy thought swirled in his mind, so much so that even the anxious and worried face of the female swordsman was ignored.

At that moment Hainf actually thought of black death.

The crowd finally became commotion.

But there must be stillness in every movement. In the torrent, Luo Linte and Little Montolo seemed to be stone statues, standing still on the spot.

"How could...?" Klin felt as if his worldview had collapsed, and Rollint was beside him. There are indescribable colors in his eyes.

For some reason, this young man from the Bauhinia family turned back and looked at the wizard.

Beside Brando, Qian finally couldn't bear it anymore. How much effort the lord spent on Tony Geer led to today's bits and pieces. How could she allow others to taint all of this at will.

She just took a step forward, but Brando held her shoulders firmly.

Brando's face hidden under the drooping edge of the hood was unusually calm, as if everything that happened here had nothing to do with him.

But deep in the dark eyes, bright electric light is reflected on the sea, like the gloomy sky before a storm, people can already foresee the fury of nature.

He already knew this set of tricks in his mind and understood the route of the visitor.

Then all that's left is to settle accounts.

"Don't worry, Akane."

"But Lord?"

"Don't worry."

Brando replied softly.

The sound of footsteps was approaching from far away.

Looking at the faces of the commotion, anger, anxiety and fear, the young man and Rasburn looked at each other and smiled. The plan has played its due role. In order to cause chaos in Tonigel, we must first destroy the beliefs in people's hearts. When they find that everything they have insisted on in the past has become a lie, the heroes they have built will be shattered by themselves. .

"The hero itself is synonymous with fragility. When he is born, he is like a meteor streaking across the sky, and when he disappears, he is often accompanied by a sad tragedy."

Rasburn sighed.

"And all of this is your masterpiece," the young man said with a smile: "It is nothing compared to what you did in East Metz thirty years ago. Both the shepherds and the Cruz people have been played by you. Round and round.”

"Dancing with fools is nothing to be proud of." Sir Rasburn couldn't hide his pride.

"Let's add more fire to this mess and let it burn out the Eruin people."

"That's right."

“A pleasure to work with.”

“A pleasure to work with.”

The young man narrowed his eyes and rode up to the crowd. He behaved appropriately, and every move he made carried the elegance of a noble. It was a kind of contentment and comfort, but just as he was about to speak, a sharp and calm voice interrupted him:

"He's lying!"

When that voice sounded from the crowd for the second time, the square suddenly became quiet.

People looked back at each other and looked at the direction where the sound came from. The crowd there was avoiding it as if they were avoiding the plague. A void spontaneously formed in the crowded square.

A girl dressed like a cobbler stood stubbornly in the hollow, her hands clenched into fists, staring closely at the young man on the horse, her dark brown eyes almost bursting with fire.

"He is not the lord!"

Like a pebble dropped into a pool with mirror-like waves, a slight uneasiness rippled through the square.

"Isn't that Su, the town's bow maker!"

"I know her. She is the daughter of the copper dragon Leto."

"Why is she here?"

"She is a close friend of Lady Freya. She seems to be a guest at Coldshirt Castle."

The young man's face was as dark as ice, and he secretly cursed the Banxi people for being such a fool, making him lose his status as an adult. But precisely because of this, he became increasingly resentful of the fish in front of him that slipped through the net.

"Su, you betrayed me and Freya, and you still dare to show up here!" He seemed to be extremely angry and smiled back: "That's good."

Su Ke ignored his threat. She was helpless, but she knew very well that the more she said at this time, the better, and she must not be deceived by the other party.

She said loudly: "The Lord has been recognized by the Earth Sword Harangya, but you don't have this thing in your hands at all."

"It's ridiculous." A trace of anger flashed in the young man's heart. He didn't expect that a hotel owner's daughter could be so calm. "Do you think I will waste time talking to you ungrateful people? Guard, catch her."

The black-armored knight immediately separated the crowd and leaned towards the direction of the girl.

Su glanced at them in a panic, but she quickly calmed down. She understood that she could not retreat or show cowardice in front of the people.

She must stand firm in her momentum in order to shake the confusion in other people's hearts.

Su suddenly turned around and rushed to the fountain. She climbed up the stairs and appealed to everyone: "Everyone in Tonigel, do you really think that the lord is such a person? That person is so superior that he even killed Ms. Yuta. He Not the lord at all!”

"Tonigel people, my fellow sisters, if you still trust your lord, please stand up and fight for this land! The witches are already on the way, and they will soon expose everything about this fake lie!"

The crowd shook.

They know that witches are the count's most loyal subordinates.

On the second floor of the hotel, Hainf, who was lying on the floor, heard the commotion in the square. In the darkness, the details of his conversation with Rollint that night flowed into his heart bit by bit.
