Shaman from Afar

Vol 3 Chapter 24: Unexpected "accident" (below)

The veteran's face changed slightly, and Brandon, who was amazed at the moment, froze for a moment, his crimson eyes gazed at his wizard advisor playfully, and the corners of his mouth evoked a slightly arc of laughter.

They all understand the so-called "another way".

The military regulations of the empire are very strict. It is necessary to force labor at every turn. The thieves whip and the disobediers die. Just because of the harshness, there is also a corresponding "crime" and "privilege".

If a legionnaire is unwilling to accept compulsory labor, he must pay twice as much to "offend the crime". Therefore, many veterans did not have much money to carry their debts until the end of their service period, and they could only continue to serve in the corps of the empire; waiting for the "amnesty" of a corps commander or His Majesty the emperor, to relieve them of their debt .

Another kind of "privilege" is a "continuation" of some ancient knight's creed. If a knight has to be punished, he has the right to file a duel trial and use his sword to decide his own destiny.

But in fact, this so-called "privilege" is just a more cruel way of punishment:

First of all, the prisoner is not allowed to wear any extra armor and weapons, and his so-called "sword" is not even a sword, but a wooden stick.

Secondly, if he wants to pass the duel trial, he must fight until the officer in the trial calls for a stop-it is conceivable that no one will call for a stop until the victim is completely out of power and dying or dying.

So this is basically a fake duel, with the skin of "knight style", still just a more cruel criminal law that slaughtered on one side.

The situation has reached an impasse, and both parties know that this matter can no longer be solved with money, so the "another way" that Loren said can only be "privileged."

"Impossible!" The rude sneer sneered, and took a sip directly at Loren's feet: "Just because you wizards also want to use 'privileges'? That's only knights and nobles ..."

"I was awarded the silver ring of the knight by the Holy Cross Church!" Loren took off the ring directly from his right hand and hit the veteran's face:

"This ring proves that I have the right to receive all the treatment that the Imperial Knights deserve, whether it is the lord of the Principality or the legion of the Empire, I have this qualification!"

"Take a good look, and please remember to return it to me-you are the glory of the empire, the guards of the north, don't put yourself on the face of a gangster!"

The guard soldiers in the fortress were in an uproar, but Brandon's guard soldiers were surprised. In the battle in the camp, the counselor of His Highness had already proved himself to them.

"Even if this is the case, it is the two wizards who violated the military regulations. It has nothing to do with you. According to the corps regulations of the Empire ..."

"According to the empire's legion regulations, if there is a violation of military regulations by the subordinates, the battlefield resistance or even the use of force against the chief, the direct chief is responsible, right?"

The cold tone of Loren stared at him indifferently.

Since the other party wants to "do things according to regulations", then he will do things with him-Loren had dealt with the legions there when he was in Ebden, otherwise it is impossible to know that such "privileges" exist.

"I am His Highness Brandon's wizard advisor. The two of them just came with me. According to the military regulations of the empire, I am fully responsible for all their actions. It has nothing to do with others, and it has nothing to do with you."

"First figure it out, then call!"

"You ?!" The veteran with both eyes gnawed his teeth, his hands clenched with fists, and his squinted Loren was still the indifferent face of disdain.

He was waiting for the veteran to fist.

As long as the other party can't restrain and cause riots, then they are the side of reasoning-this is especially important, they are now in Connaught's "territory", even if they are innocent, they will be suppressed and morally occupied The commanding height will at least keep the hundreds of guards behind Brandon unshakable.

This is what he can fight for, as long as there are still a few hundred people present, Brandon and himself will not be isolated, let them squeeze!

Justice is never a weapon against the enemy, but a benchmark for uniting oneself.

Now the opponent has shown signs of being unsustainable, and most of them are related to things beyond his expectations-the more this time, the more they have to try to disrupt the opponent's position, so that the game is more beneficial to the side.

For example, stimulate him again.

"Row--!"

The word that almost broke out from between the teeth, the veteran stiffly restrained his impulse, and his body almost fell like a deflated air.

It's a pity, it's almost a bit.

"Half a quarter of an hour, the duel trial begins!" A sneer sneered coldly, and the veteran glared at Loren visibly:

"I urge you to write a suicide note as soon as possible, lest it be too ugly to write before death.

………………………………………………

The two sides of the confrontation have dispersed, and the legionnaire with the money disappeared early.

"Very well, there is a small issue that must be confirmed before the discussion, Your Wizarding Advisor."

Brandon looked at Loren silently, even the smile on his face could not hide the coldness in his tone:

"Are you just the one who was impulsive to save your friend, or the reasoned decision made after careful consideration-this is very important, so please answer me immediately!"

"Half and half." The black-haired wizard shrugged.

Brandon tilted his mouth slightly and blinked to signal him to continue.

"I really want to save my friend, but this is not an impulse, otherwise the two of them just don't want to leave alive." Loren said bluntly:

"But this situation is not an accident at the moment, but someone dug a hole for us!"

"It's not a surprise at all ... well, it's really the wizard consultant I'm interested in, and we know that we are particularly good!"

"Could you please stop using the word" seeing "? My goose bumps are coming out."

"no way!"

The excited little hand waved, and the high-prince His Royal Highness grinned very happy:

"It's a trap, yes, of course it's a trap-I've seen that kind of person a lot, no one backs him up, he dare not dare to trouble me, and he's blatantly provocative!"

"So, who gave him the waist behind him?" The corner of his mouth raised, and Brandon smiled happily:

"Please note that rhetorical questions are not interrogative sentences."

The agreed Loren nodded slightly, and at this point the other party's "outlier" behavior could hardly be more obvious.

"Since you didn't make the impulsive decision, it proves that this time we think the same-they are ready to make trouble, then let us accompany them to make a good fight!"

"In order to achieve the goal, my wizard advisor, Lord Loren Turin, you must not lose, you must win, and you have to win all the time. You have to win beautifully and wonderfully enough to scare them all to the ground. People dare to challenge you again, this is the premise of our plan! "

"Don't think of it as a duel, it's a show, everyone is wearing a mask, and you are the core one!"

"This is not an easy task, but since we want to go together, then it proves that you are confident, right?"

"Cough cough ... actually, the" duel trial "is just an alternative plan I used to fool that guy ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ At the beginning, I was ready to anger the veteran and let him do it first."

Indifferent, Loren spread his hand, very indifferent expression: "But who knows where he is, he still dare not hit me, so unfortunately missed."

"Well ... this is very doubtful, it was estimated that someone had reminded him before." Brandon blinked, apparently also noticing the abnormal behavior of the veteran:

"Maybe he also wanted to take the opportunity to promote this duel, see how you are?"

"Me?" Loren's tone was meaningful when he glanced at His Royal Highness.

"Oh, please!"

Brandon rolled his eyes. "Yes, you are the only trump card in my hand! Of course, it's other than Milasis-do I have to say it?"

"Well, maybe, but you're right." Loren's eyes flashed a killing intent:

"I am indeed confident!"
