To be fair, what Baudelaire said is justified - as one of the principalities of the Empire, eboden is of course also a vassal of the Empire. In case of civil unrest, major crisis, enemy invasion and vassal rebellion, he is qualified to ask the Empire for reinforcements to counter the rebellion, and it is also the obligation of the Empire to maintain the stability and order of the vassal territory.

But that's just theory!

Yes, the current situation is that we can ask the Empire for help; But once the imperial Legion is invited, it's not easy to send it away!

Even the nobles of the free Parliament can see this no matter how stupid they are - the Empire will certainly garrison the whole Legion in eboden and use the advantage of military strength to further threaten and interfere in eboden's internal affairs, which can be thought of with their toes.

What will they do next? To receive ports and taxes from eboden, or to simply turn eboden into a direct Royal territory? At that time, will these workshops, shops, fairs and ocean fleets be directly entitled "Royal"?

No, no, no, it's all a question of whether there is a need for a free Parliament at that time!

It was not only the noble members of Parliament, but also Alto Bellini stared at Baudelaire who said this, even if he wanted to be calm enough.

The reason why eboden can have today's situation and status is entirely because he maintains absolute independence in the territory of the Empire and can be free from the direct interference of the church and the Empire - otherwise, why should wizards not be affected here and even have the same transcendent status as the nobility.

Have they forgotten that?!

Of course, the surprised Alto would not remember that he was the first person to break the "balance" and "illusion"; If he had not suddenly defected to the Holy Cross Church, the nine pointed star wizard tower would not have really made up his mind to stand with the corona family and wait for the final judgment of the Empire.

Whatever the result, it must be 10000 times better than letting the Holy Cross rule eboden - in the eyes of the Empire, the nine pointed star wizard tower and the church are his subordinates, and the wizards are just another ruler of eboden; But if it is the Holy Cross Church, it is a question of survival and destruction!

Nine pointed star wizard tower and wimpar's wizards are definitely not the same kind of people. They are as proud as aristocrats. They would rather die than accept such harsh conditions!

"This is all your plan, right, you sinister and cunning villains!" verlow finally jumped out again and asked loudly, "from the beginning, you are going to skip the freedom Council and betray us. When the imperial Legion comes, you will take credit like a Harper dog!"

Alto Bellini did not speak, and the excited aristocratic parliamentarians seemed to have foreseen the impending destruction, shouting one by one and spitting at Baudelaire standing in the center of the meeting.

"Betray you?"

Bodrell flashed a mockery on his face and gently snapped his fingers. The mercenaries behind him immediately came forward and surrounded the wizard in the center. The cross bow and spear in his hand pointed to the "gentlemen" sitting on the seat.

"What do you want to do?" the aristocratic members were stunned. "This is a free Parliament. We have a tacit understanding!"

"When you adults incorporated the Holy Cross Church into eboden and the wizard tower withdrew from Parliament, our tacit understanding disappeared."

Baudelaire's expression was colder than ever: "gentlemen, it's time to consider how to survive.

It is to follow the Holy Cross Church and turn eboden into the kingdom of God;

Or maintain our ancient tradition and maintain the alliance of knowledge and gold to the next era?

The choice is yours! "

"Why do you have to be so bitter and bitter? Doesn't this completely push those people to the irreparable opposite and let them make a choice immediately? To be honest, I don't want to see such a choice!"

Brandon Sally muttered in confusion and looked puzzled and innocent, which made the black haired wizard sitting opposite him look black and stare at him.

It was the red haired and red eyed noble boy in front of him who made up his mind for the elders of the wizard tower and told them an amazing "secret" - the imperial legion of 3000 people had been launched as early as a month ago and could reach the border of eboden in a week at the latest!

In other words, all this was planned and premeditated. The Legion was not invited by the nine pointed star wizard tower, but for Brandon Sally.

Loren is really more and more curious about his identity - from the king of Saxony, familiar with LUT infinit, and connected with the imperial Legion

"Is he always like this?"

Glancing at the noble boy who was still complaining, Loren secretly asked the knight girl named "phillanai".

The doll like miss fillonet looked at him and then nodded slightly - although it was only for a moment, Loren did read the trace of helplessness in her eyes.

So isn't this the first time?

But then again, what was the relationship between him and this miss philronay? lover? Brother and sister? Childhood sweetheart or

"If you're beating miss fillonay's attention, for the sake of your life, I advise you not to do so." the noble boy turned his face, with incomparable sincerity flashing in his big red eyes:

"Believe me, her terror is impossible for you to see - in the beautiful flowers, there are often not only butterflies flying, but also ferocious steel toothed Saber Toothed tigers lying in ambush."

"...... You really think too much."

The black haired wizard was very sure. Just after Brandon finished that sentence, there was indeed a sound of the long sword coming out of the scabbard behind him!

Phillo Nai hummed coldly, put away his long sword, turned and left, and did not forget to slam the door.

"Bang!" there were only two men in the room who looked surprised and scared, and stared at the door carefully, as if they were on guard against someone who would rush out from behind the door at any time... Er, steel toothed saber toothed tiger.

"Cough, cough..."

Brandon, with an embarrassed expression, looked back first: "in short, there will be at most two weeks before the imperial Legion will arrive in eboden - then everything will be a foregone conclusion, so we must do it before then.

And neither the church nor the corona family will wait until that day and let others decide their life and death - so you have many strong competitors, Lord Loren Turin. "

Within two weeks?

"Then how long will it take to complete the blood sacrifice?"

"The corona family didn't say, I guess they may not be sure." the noble boy shrugged his shoulders and replied with a smile: "of course, it's also possible that they already know, but they only intend to tell us when it's finished."

"Also for the sake of life, I don't suggest you go alone. At least you need several trusted companions - believe me, this' mission 'will only be more dangerous than your' expedition 'in the ancient wood forest."

"Thank you so much for your reminder." Lauren nodded without a smile.

"Don't you believe it?"

"No, it's just that what you said is exactly the same as what you didn't say."

“……”

I'm kidding. Now the civilian areas in the south of the city have been completely blocked. There are crazy thugs and homeless people fleeing everywhere, mutated or about to mutate monsters. Even in the south of the big wall, the forest full of Ogres is not so dangerous!

Moreover, in that damn sewer, there are thousands of monsters that have completed mutation - according to Isaac's theory, the longer the time, the more complete the mutation will be and the higher the erosion will be.

Er, it may not be very vivid, so use a simple and easy to understand explanation, that is, this kind of monster will still evolve!

So now Loren can only pray for one thing wholeheartedly - no matter where the nine pointed star Holy Grail is, never, never in the sewer!
