messenger from the wasteland

Chapter 23 Promises and Agreements Should Be Strictly Observed

There was silence in the council circle, the rock roared at the lion, and the forest was silent.

"Crack."

Chu's fingers clasped the lattice of the knight's sword at his waist.

However, Hillman stretched out his hand lightly, and held down the long sword that Chu Jiang was about to draw.

She turned her eyes sideways, looked at King Mantern, and smiled slightly.

"My atrocities, I don't know which one King Mantern is talking about?"

If judged by their eyes, many of the things Hillman did could be regarded as atrocities.

"Don't you understand? King Reinhardt." King Mantern put his hand on the armrest of the throne, and tapped the stone slab on the armrest with his index finger.

"The war you launched broke the peace of the mainland for hundreds of years, and even destroyed the land of Plainn, the country of plains. Millions of people wailed in the flames of war, and you seemed to have never heard of it. Now, your atrocities must be punished. End, otherwise, the entire continent will be engulfed by the flames of war you ignited."

Hillman raised his eyebrows, put his hands in front of him, and sat on his seat.

"So how do you want me to end my brutality?"

A gleam flashed in King Mantern's eyes, but on the surface, he said to Hillman like an elder who spoke earnestly.

"I'm sorry, but you have to understand that your evil deeds will inevitably push you to a dead end, and you must pay the price."

As he spoke, he straightened his body, like a mountain moving slightly, heavy and slow.

"I hope you can return the land of Plann, and hand over Roland and the Black Knight, the main culprits of this war, to us. As for the more detailed content, we can work out it in future negotiations."

"Heh." Hillman laughed, covering his mouth lightly.

King Mantern frowned, and asked in a deep voice: "King Reinhard Hillman, what we are talking about is extremely serious, what are you laughing at?"

"Sorry." Hillman raised a hand and said, "Please believe that I am doing my best to restrain myself."

Then, she continued to smile and said, "I would like to ask, you said that you want me to return the land of Plann, to whom specifically?"

Hillman's attitude made King Mantern's face gradually turn cold.

"Naturally, let us deal with it fairly."

Hillman seemed to think about it for a while, then nodded: "Is that so, deal with it fairly."

Finally, the smile on Hillman's face completely disappeared, and her expression became indifferent, her eyes full of aggression and aggressiveness, staring directly at King Mantern.

Like a lion about to prey, Hillman said flatly.

"Please allow me to refuse your request. In addition, Sword Saint Roland and the Black Knight are not prisoners of war for our country, but heroes. Please pay attention to your wording, His Majesty King Mantern."

······
On the platform of the mountain, the flames flickered, and outside the mountain, the wind and snow covered the sky.

Under normal circumstances, such a council could no longer be held, but in fact, for King Mantern, this council has only just begun.

"Since I can't persuade you to stop, King Reinhardt." King Mantern slowly clenched his palms in the armrests.

"I can only make you stop in my own way."

After the words fell, King Mantern's hand slammed heavily on the armrest of the throne, and a muffled sound shook the mountain.

Under his pale beard, he shouted.

"The whole army lined up!"

Under the influence of the magical runes of the Throne, his voice was like a roar from the sky.

Then, countless footsteps sounded.

Under the flustered eyes of Reinhardt's entourage, thousands of Mantern soldiers with sharp knives stepped onto the platform on the top of the mountain and stood in front of the exit of the parliamentary circle.

"Line up!" shouted the leader of the soldiers.

Thousands of sharp blades fell, pointing directly at the circle of the parliament, blocking the exit.

From the beginning to the end, Hillman was very calm, until all the noisy voices gradually subsided, she glanced at King Mantern's face with indifferent eyes, and looked at King First.

"King First, is that what you mean too?"

Hillman asked.

King First, who had been silent all this time, looked at Hillman and said aloud.

"Forest, stand on the side of order."

Obviously, this time he chose to help Mantern.

King Mantern stood up slowly from his seat, with his hands behind his back, and said to Hillman.

"King Reinhardt, I will ask you again now, are you willing to accept our agreement?"

Hillman turned around, raised the corners of her mouth, and gave her inevitable answer: "I'm sorry, I can't accept it."

"Hmph." King Mantern snorted coldly: "Don't you think you can go out from here if you refuse to accept it?"

"Then I will ask you the same question, His Majesty King Mantern."

Hillman's voice was flat, but a heart-pounding vigor slowly exuded from her body, and her eyes carried the arrogance of a lion.

"Do you think I can get out of here?"

King Mantern's pupils contracted slightly, and Hillman's gaze made him unconsciously want to avoid it.

He stood still and looked at Chu who was standing beside Hillman. In his opinion, Hillman's confidence came from this unknown knight.

"The black knight next to you is absolutely impossible to resist the two saints."

"How do you know if you don't try?" Hillman replied while sitting upright.

King Mantern said no more, and waved to the people around him.

Beside him, the huge mountain warrior smiled, walked down the steps next to the throne with heavy steps, and walked into the open space in the center of the parliament circle.

On the other side, King First turned his eyes and looked at the thin man beside him. The thin man lowered his head slightly, and then walked into the circle.

There are six saints on this continent, and they represent the most powerful forces on this continent.These six people are in four countries respectively, among which there are three in Reinhardt, namely Roland the Sword Saint, Promante the University Scholar, the Prison Guard, and Jeff the Law Enforcement Officer.

One of the defeated Plainn Kingdoms is the space sage Hubert.

At this time, the two people in the council circle are the last two saints.

Mountain Ranger Loveman from Mantern and Windrunner Karl from Forster.

Holding the knight sword in his hand, Hatsu took a step forward.

After her first appearance, she was recognized as the Seventh Holy One on the mainland, the Dark Knight.

In other words, this time the four-nation parliament is about to evolve into a battle of the three sages.

Some disappointment floated in Hillman's eyes.

What is she disappointed about?
She is disappointed by the disqualification of the other two kings. In her opinion, they have lost their qualifications as kings.

"At the beginning, you can kill everyone except the king."

Hillman sat down and gave orders to Chu.
