Chapter 428 Nobles Meeting
When Ronin and Lulans were discussing with Bruno yesterday, they received the latter's invitation to convene a meeting of high nobles.
So the next morning, they took Sophia with them to the Alduin Hall.
Although the founding celebrations have ended, the lively atmosphere on the streets will continue for some time and will not subside immediately.
"Luo Ning, His Majesty the King summoned us alone for a meeting. What do you think he wanted to say?" Rulans asked.
Ever since Bruno announced the meeting but did not explain the topic, Luo Ning has been thinking about this issue.
"Recently I heard that there was trouble in the Kingdom of Tricia, and the people your Majesty summoned this time were either the great nobles who ruled the country, or knights who were too powerful to be ignored. I guess it may have something to do with the affairs of the Kingdom of Tricia. "
Rulans nodded happily, "I have the same idea as you, maybe the thirty years of peace are coming to an end, and Alduin and Tricia will start a war again!"
He didn't expect that the fighting stopped after he was injured, and now that he had just recovered, the fighting showed signs of rekindling.
Sofia, who was holding her chin and looking out the window at the scenery on both sides of the Golden Feather Avenue, came to her senses and asked, "Is the Kingdom of Alduin going to take advantage of the chaos in the Kingdom of Tricia to attack?"
Luo Ning nodded, "It's very possible."
Rulans added: "Even if a war is declared, there will be a relatively long preparation time and the war will not start immediately."
Sofia sighed leisurely.
"In our place, although there will be battles between human races, internal offensive wars with large-scale casualties are not allowed to occur."
She looked out the window, "There is no interference from the devil and his minions here. We should have vigorously developed and restored the glory of thousands of years ago, but we didn't expect that the fight between them made Orlanthe stagnant."
Sofia looked at Lulans and Luo Ning seriously: "Is there any way you two can stop this war?"
Rulans shook his head, "The conflict and hatred between the two families of Alduin and Tricia has lasted for more than two hundred years. Although there was a brief period of peace, they would not give up as long as they had the opportunity to embezzle each other. "
Luo Ning also said: "The turmoil in the Kingdom of Tricia originated from the 'Holy Storm' organization, which was probably established by the Demon God's minions. Attacking the Kingdom of Tricia can also eliminate the Demon God's minions."
Harmon has also collected this information in the past few days, so Sophia also guessed that the holy storm originated from several major dark lords in the Crescent Continent.
She also knew that if Alduin attacked Tricia, he would definitely face off against the Holy Storm organization in the end.
But before that, she was worried that when the two kingdoms were fighting each other, the Holy Storm would take the opportunity to rise.
The best situation is for Alduin and Tricia to work together to find out and eliminate the demon's minions first, and then the two countries sign a peace treaty, allowing the knights and magicians to practice with peace of mind and have more strong people. Support Crescent Continent.
But Sophia knew that her idea was very naive.
As long as the Demon God does not come to the Orlant continent, the people here will not regard the Demon God as the biggest threat. They will only eliminate the enemies in front of them first.
Not long after, the carriage arrived in front of the Golden Feather Palace. Under the guidance of the knight, Luo Ning and the others arrived at the Alduin Hall.
There are already several nobles in the hall at this moment. They are Count Jesus of Moonlight Valley, Duke Ferenc Gregor of the Principality of Firensburg, and Count Alfonso Fleming of Screaming Island. Here comes Viscount Myron.
"It's him?"
Sofia, who stepped into the hall with one foot, immediately focused her eyes on Jesus.
She has studied the Shaman Clan and is very familiar with their aura. She didn't even release her mental perception just now, so she knew there was something wrong with Jesus.
Luo Ning nodded secretly, "Yes, that's him."
Sophia took a deep breath. If she wasn't in a foreign country, she would have taken action long ago. Now she could only forcefully suppress the urge to take action.
The three of them walked to the designated seats and sat down.
In the following period, other nobles arrived one after another.
There were Broll, whom Ronin was familiar with, Randall from the Amethyst Earldom, and Duke Varghese from the Gistana Principality, etc. Duke Andrea from the Villa Principality arrived last.
Andrea's seat was right next to Rulans, and the two looked at each other with indifferent expressions.
"It's great that you can actually recover, Rulansi!"
"Oh, why, I recovered from my injury and broke through, making you unhappy?"
Andrea sneered and did not continue to taunt, but glanced at Ronin. The look seemed to have the meaning of scrutiny and warning, but there was no kindness in it anyway.
Luo Ning remained calm, did not greet the other party, and did not even maintain basic aristocratic etiquette.
He could foresee that if the Kingdom of Alduin really wanted to attack the Kingdom of Tricia, a war might break out between the Wushan Territory and the Principality of Vera during this period.
"Haha, I kept everyone waiting for a long time!"
Bruno's hearty laughter first spread into the hall, and then he was seen walking in with long steps, and Crown Prince Garrett followed behind him.
Luo Ning calculated the current high-level combat power in the hall.
In addition to the Wushan leader, there are three known Silver Moon knights: Garrett, Andrea, and Vargis.
As for the unknown…
Luo Ning glanced at the knights guarding the nobles on the left and right, wondering if there were such powerful knights among them.
Bruno sat on the throne, "I had thought of asking Iben, Willis and others to come, but unfortunately the border was not peaceful and they could not get away."
Iben was his eldest son-in-law, the Silver Moon Knight;
Willis was the patriarch of the Black Jade Family, the Meteor Peak Knight.
"I won't say any more nonsense, let's get straight to the point."
He looked at his son Garrett, who took a step forward and said, "When I left the border and came back, a large area of the Tricia Kingdom had been occupied by the 'Sacred Storm' organization, and this area is gradually expanding. Our opponents are falling into the quagmire."
Garrett said, his voice suddenly low and excited: "Everyone, this is our chance!"
"Our Oduin Kingdom is the legitimate heir to the Orlant Empire. Today we can use this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to defeat Tricia, the robber, in one fell swoop!"
Bruno continued, "I'm going to attack the Tricia Kingdom!"
The Oduin Hall fell silent.
Although everyone had roughly guessed this matter, no one immediately expressed their views.
After a while, Duke Ferrens spoke first: "Brother is devoted to planning for the kingdom, so we will naturally follow and support him sincerely."
He changed the subject: "But before that, we must grasp the recent situation of the Kingdom of Tricia, obtain detailed information about the Holy Storm Organization mentioned by them and Garrett, and take advantage of the situation when they are fighting fiercely."
Feirens seemed to agree, but in fact he was stalling for time, but others could not find any faults, after all, what he said was reasonable.
Andrea nodded and said: "Your Majesty, I agree with Duke Ferrens's proposal. Collecting more specific information is the most important step at present. As for..."
"But actively prepare for war, and even arrange the team to the front line, so that we can raid as soon as the time comes. This is what we need to do!"
Rulans interrupted the other party and looked at Bruno: "I agree with your majesty's proposal to go to war with the Kingdom of Tricia, and the nobles should start to act immediately!"
It's not that Rulans wanted to say this, this is just a clause in the "strengthening military assistance" agreed last night.
He can't just say it yesterday and remain silent today.
"Lulansi, you haven't been on the battlefield for so many years, are you confused?"
Andrea sneered: "I don't have accurate information about the so-called Holy Storm Organization. Blindly attacking will only fall into someone else's trap!"
A debate competition began.
Ronin could see that Duke Vargis belonged to the neutral faction, and the three nobles, Ferens, Andrea and Mellen, had some similarities.
In fact, collecting intelligence and arranging teams to prepare for war on the front line were not contradictory, but they had to do them separately, which involved the game between them and Bruno.
Getting Bruno to agree to their plan was one of the ways to weaken the royal authority.
Moreover, for them, they could take advantage of the civil strife in the Kingdom of Tricia to do something, but these things did not necessarily have to be to take advantage of the situation to attack the Kingdom of Tricia. (End of this chapter)
