Chapter 677
Shocks of surprise and astonishment suddenly sounded in the hall, and a pair of incredibly surprised eyes all focused on the boy's indifferent face.
In this depressed atmosphere, the young Duke Yuli Wertz raised his head proudly, his silver-gray pupils filled with fierce color.
That expression...It seems that it is not him who is being looked at at this moment, but this young man is looking at the Knights in the hall, looking at the whole Byrne Duchy, whether it fits his memory. Looks like.
Skinny silhouette, immature face, but exuding a sense of oppression without anger and prestige, stern eyes scanned the entire hall, and everyone who looked at him held their breath for it. trembling with fear.
The whispers in the hall became more and more noisy, the Knights discussed spiritedly; the counts in front of the round table frowned, looking at the boy who turned up without being invited and was overbearing. .
Except for Loren and a few of the Knights present, none of the overwhelming majority knew the young and overwhelming Grand Duke Elman; but they knew the red and white one on the boy’s chest , The coat of arms separated by the black cross.
That is the family crest of the Wertz family in Dragonheart City, Lord Elman.
They know the flag held high by the two fully armed entourage behind the young man, and the iron crown held high by the three-headed giant dragon.
Sky Dome Palace, Dragon Wang Family, Desa Leone.
"...what the hell is going on, doesn’t it mean that the imperial mission will have to wait two days before arriving in Byrne..."
"...it’s not important! It’s important It's how these people got in..."
"...The gates of the Scarlet Fortress are closed, and there are guards everywhere outside the city. It is impossible that no one has found the mission team..."
>
"...Is this an accident? Or is it planned..."
"...Just go to the door without saying hello, what does the empire want to do?! This little boy...what does the duke want to do..."
The chaotic and noisy noise, questioning sounds mixed with gnashing teeth grinding, impassioned expressions and bright red eyes, staring at the silhouette of Ulrich Wiltz.
The silent counts were even more stunned, so shocked that they didn't even have the time to talk to each other in a low voice, and their faces were even harder to see the extreme.
They know better than the Knights...Just this morning, the information about the imperial mission's arrival in Byrne has just been sent from Loyal Soul Fortress, and it is indeed still two or three days away according to the distance.
That is to say, the Lord Duke left the mission directly, and came to Scarlet Blood Castle by himself and a few entourages!
Is he young and vigorous, or is he really not afraid of death... He really doesn’t worry about which blood is on the top. Knight who wants to be a hero suddenly jumps out and shoots him down. ? !
Don't say outside the palace gate, even in this hall right now there are guys who want to do this!
In contrast, Loren, who is facing Duke Yuli at this moment, is the one with the calmest expression in the hall; the "new Duke" with a calm demeanor loses one's head out of The vassals of Fear formed a sharp contrast.
Of course, the more important thing is because he has been ridiculous...
Since the duke can sneak to the Scarlet Blood Castle alone, and meet with him privately; then throw After leaving the mission, it was no surprise that Alone ran to the Round Table Council.
"Boom————!"
The two Duke entourage raised their flag guns and landed heavily on the hard bluestone slab; the tremor echoed for a long time, The whole hall was quiet.
"In the name of His Majesty Eckhardt II, the highest emperor of the Empire Twelfth generation..."
The indifferent boy took a step forward, his eyes swept across the hall again, immature But his sonorous and powerful voice rang out every word clearly in everyone’s ears:
"I, Lord of Alleman, Yuli Wirtz of Dragonheart City represents the Sky Vault, Come to Byrne, and convey the will of the empire to all the Knight lords of Byrne's thirteenth collar——!"
As his voice fell, the atmosphere in the entire hall became more depressing.
Everyone knows that the imperial mission will come sooner or later, but originally it should be two or three days later, rather than unprepared now... This "turn up without being invited" duke, really It caught everyone by surprise.
"Your Excellency Duke Elman, please forgive the abrupt words..." The frowned Eckert Count took the lead and stepped forward to the boy:
"But according to me As we know, the imperial mission team is still far away at the northern gate of Byrne, the faithful soul fort; you came here by yourself without any prior notification...can you explain the reason to us?"
Leigh Wiltz turned his head, his silver-gray gaze turned indifferently to Ackert count who was a few heads higher than him: "Please forgive me for taking the liberty, but could you please tell me first, your name is..."
"Tris Act of Fury Castle, it is an honor to meet you." Act count right hand stroked his chest, bowed slightly: "When I was young, I used to be with your father and grandfather. Had a fate."
"It turned out to be the famous Tris Master, the dean of the Knight Academy."
The young man turned around immediately, and angered him respectfully. The lord of the fort bowed and replied, and his expression immediately added a little admiration: "Father has mentioned you many times in the past, and until his death, he still remembers the days when he heard his life in front of you."
"On the way of Knight, no one can be the right of Tris Act Master-if it weren't for father die an untimely death, I should have gone to the Castle of Fury to ask you for advice."
"Don't dare to be." Eckert count answered neither humble nor overbearing: "Grand Duke Wiltz really overrated."
"When today's things are over, I must ask you about father's things back then." Slightly paused, the boy’s words suddenly changed:
"But regarding the question just now, I forgive me for not being able to answer you!"
Acte count face doesn't change, just The sharp eyes narrowed slightly.
"My trip does not represent me personally, but as a special envoy of the Vault of Heaven, the Duke of Elman came to announce the will of the empire to Byrne."
Uli Weier He raised his head proudly, and his words became overbearing again: "For this reason, before a new Duke of Byrne is formally elected, none of you present has the right to have an equal dialogue with me, let alone the power. Ask me, Lord Elman, any questions!"
"Whether you agree or disagree, the Thirteenth Lord Byrne is a vassal of the empire and must unconditionally obey the will of the Sky Palace, Sa The will of the Supreme Emperor of the Klan Empire -!"
The cold voice of the young man echoed in the hall for a long time; just in the next second, the tide-like noise immediately exploded countless angry, questioning, and fearful words Assaults the senses towards him.
And Yuli Wirtz, who is standing at the center of this storm, is face doesn't change, arrogant and indifferent, as if everyone in the entire hall is not in his eyes.
"Since you have made your request sincerely..."
The sound of calm words sounded, quickly quieting the restless hall.
"Then we are also honored to convey this news to you." The heavy black hair wizard raised his eyes and looked at the boy again:
"The thirteen leaders of Byrne have jointly nominated their new duke."
"And this duke is talking with you on an equal footing, and is ready to listen to what you want to read, the Vault of Heaven and the Supreme Emperor of the Empire Your majesty’s will!"
"Really?"
The young duke held up his chest with a solemn expression and looked at the black hair wizard solemnly: "Byrne bishop has been summoned by the Lord. , And I, as the messenger of the Sky Vault, did not participate in the ceremony..."
"Your Excellency Loren Torino, also forgive me to speak bluntly, your duke title... Your name is not right, your words are not right!"
As soon as his words fell, countless dissatisfied voices rang out in the hall.
"On the contrary, Duke Yuli Wertz." Loren slightly smiled: "According to the ancient tradition of Byrne, the Round Table Council and the Knight of All Byrne have elected me the new Duke of Byrne. We They have already sworn their vows in front of the Holy Cross."
"Although it is a pity that no bishop was present, the church has not explicitly stipulated that the new duke must have a bishop to preside over the ceremony. …This is just a convention."
"As for whether the Sky Palace agrees, aren't you standing here as the special envoy of the empire?"
Loren raised his head slightly with a solemn expression : "If the empire is willing to agree to this result, of course we are willing to accept the blessing of the Vault of Heaven."
"If you don't want to... Byrne will accompany you to the end!"
