The Bone King of the Beginning of the Comprehensive Manga

As soon as they heard that they were going to mobilize troops, those nobles immediately froze.

"I don't need fools on the wall, and I don't need people who just want to get benefits and don't want to pay. Please leave immediately." Leiqi said sternly with a deadpan expression.

"Your Highness, you can't do this..."

"Someone throw them out for me," Reki yelled.

The death knight guarding the door immediately walked into the hall.

Chapter 40 Returning Sophie

When the matter developed to this point, those nobles who chose to support at the beginning couldn't help but rejoice, not to mention the future, at least it's all right now.

Moreover, the soldiers commanded by the princess to move Earl of Nangong are not completely puppets.

"The rest of the matter will be discussed in detail by Viscount Aojie and you. Earl Nangong and I have other matters."

After saying this, Leiqi and Nangong Long left the hall without waiting for the nobleman to react.

Walking in the corridor, Lei Qi, who had been tense all the time, let out a deep breath, as if she wanted to sweep away the pressure in her heart.

"I'm doing okay"

"Very good." Nangong Long raised his hand to touch her head, but stopped in mid-air.

Seeing his movement, Leiqi reached out and pressed his big hand on her head, then raised her head slightly and looked at him with a playful smile.

"When you are alone, forget about my princess status for a while, I allow you to do so"

Nangong Long gently rubbed Lei Shiqi's short golden hair.

"I have asked Viscount Aojie to record the nobles who did not come and those who just left, and if they have the opportunity, they will abolish their titles and take their territories as directly controlled by the royal family.

The king has only one daughter, and the future throne must be yours. Bruno has no precedent for the queen, and many people will be dissatisfied.If you don’t want to be controlled by others everywhere, centralization of power is necessary, but there is no rush, just take your time.”

"Well, will you help me?" Lei Qi looked at him expectantly with wide eyes.

"certainly"

Talking while walking, the two soon came to the door of Leiqi's room.

"I'm going to have a look over the city wall. By the way, give this to Joan of Arc." Nangong Long took out a bottle of light red liquid and handed it to Lei Qi. It was a diluted healing potion. The effect was not that exaggerated, but go to a The scar is still fine.

"This is?"

"Applied on the wound can remove scars"

"Let me say thank you for Joan of Arc first." Leiqi smiled.

"See you later"

"Um"

After leaving the Viscount's mansion, Nangong Long went to the city wall to find Ailian and Lim. The two of them were recently commanding the death knight to help with the reconstruction work.

Tita still takes care of Nangonglong's daily life as usual, while Icarus disappears for a while every day, returning to Alsace to take care of her watermelon.

For Icarus, whose flying speed reaches Mach 24, it takes only tens of seconds to go back and forth between the two territories.

As the evening approached, Sophie, who had rushed back from the capital, arrived at Viscount Aojie's mansion, so Nangong Long and others gathered in Ailian's room.

Seeing two strange faces, Lei Qi and Joan of Arc, Sophie gestured to Ailian with her eyes, who is this?

Nangong Long first opened his mouth to introduce the two parties, he is more suitable for this matter than Ai Lian.

Naturally, Sophie was surprised when the prince turned into a princess. Bruno's king could really hide.

Then, Sophie told everyone about her experience in the palace, which was all bad news.

"The king of Brunu is currently sick in bed. I haven't seen him in person. I just met with Prime Minister Bodwa and conveyed our position."

"Does it mean that I, who was captured by Yinhui, got my freedom on the condition of supporting him?"

"They accepted this statement on the surface, but well, they didn't believe what I said at all. They were more willing to believe that the Earl was a traitor than that you were captured, and there were rumors that Earl Nangong was deceived by your beauty "Sophie explained with a smile.

Sophie didn't tell Bodwa that she and Mira also supported Nangong Long, otherwise she wouldn't have come back so easily.

Hearing Sophie's teasing words, Ailian was not shy, but proudly puffed out her chest, staring at Nangong Long with a pair of beautiful big eyes, as if to say, are you infatuated with my beauty?

Leiqi quietly remembered in her heart that this is a rival in love.

"Master Sophie, did they say how to deal with this matter?"

Probably because she didn't want the atmosphere to be distracted by Ailian, Lim hurriedly asked.

"I don't know how much territory a war girl is worth? That's what they said"

"I have become their imaginary enemy." Ai Lian shrugged with a helpless expression.

"The other party wants me to convey something to you. Earl Nangong has committed a crime of rebellion. He will be deprived of his title and all his rights as a nobleman. Alsace is tentatively designated as a territory directly under the king's jurisdiction, and will temporarily maintain autonomy until the internal turmoil subsides. Before sending officials to manage it," Sophie added looking at Nangong Long.

"We already know about the rebels." Ailian tilted her head and looked a little unhappy.

"Eh? Is there anyone faster than me?" Sophie looked at Ailian in surprise.

"It should be, anyway, it's Yinhui's intelligence network."

Sophie glanced at Nangong Long thoughtfully, but she quickly looked away.

"The black knight Roland led the Knights of Navarra to attack the Earl, you know that too, right?"

For a moment, the eyes of the girls were all on Nangong Long.

"I didn't say anything about the battle with Canulon's army before. It is estimated that the Knights of Navarre will arrive here in two or three days. If they go to Alsace first, it will be a few days later."

"Are we going back to Alsace?" Ellen asked.

"No, based on what I know about Roland, he won't attack civilians. And there is a high chance that he will come to Tritor directly when he comes back. Didn't Sophie just come here to find us when she heard the news on the road?"

"The knights directly under the kingdom cannot be transferred at will without the order of the 923 king. How could the father give such an order? Who wants to guard the western border?" Leiqi's face became very bad.

"Earl Masha told me that it was Duke Tenati who used his personal connections to sign a temporary truce with Sachstan," Sophie explained.

"The order should be given by the civil servant headed by Bodvar." Nangong Long looked at Leiqi and said.

"How dare the prime minister pass His Majesty the king and order in the name of the royal family?" Leiqi said in disbelief.

"Leiqi, in fact, His Majesty the King is seriously ill... unconscious"

Hearing this news, Leiqi's face turned livid, and her body was on the verge of falling. Fortunately, Nangong Long helped her in time to avoid falling from the chair.

Lei Qi grabbed his arm vigorously, and it took a while to recover.

"I'm fine, thank you"

"The next step is how to deal with the issue of the Knights? Is it war or peace?"

Seeing that the atmosphere had become heavy, Ailian spoke in a timely manner to change the subject.

"I want to meet the black knight Roland. This is an unnecessary fight." Even though she felt very sad, Leiqi still said firmly.

"It's a good thing to be able to talk, but they have to be willing. With Roland's personality, I think we have to fight no matter what," Nangong Long said.

Chapter 41 Confronting Each Other

After breakfast, Nangong Long and others gathered in the hall. The members included Nangong Long, Ailian, Lim, Sophie, Leiqi, Joan of Arc, Masha and Aojie.

Mashaha arrived in Beluv a day later than Sophie.

The scouts reported just now that there were about [-] enemies in the west, fifteen or sixteen kilometers away from Beluv, and they were the Knights of Navarre who came to fight against the rebels.

"What's the difference between Bruno's knights and ordinary soldiers?" Ailian tilted her head and asked, because after hearing the news, Aojie obviously lost his usual calm expression.

"Brunu's knights are all selected through assessment. They must have excellent martial arts and good education. Martial arts include swordsmanship, spearmanship, and equestrianism. Education refers to the spirit of knights, military science, and reading. Every year, the king Assessments will be held, and those who pass will be awarded medals and become knights."

Aojie drank the wine in his mouth to moisten his throat, and continued:

"Roland, the black knight who leads the Knights of Navarra, is known as the strongest knight in Bruno. He passed the knight's assessment at the age of 13, and his martial arts far exceeded everyone's expectations. Those in charge of the martial arts assessment are all powerful The leader of the Knights, but Roland defeated them all"

"It does sound exaggerated," Ailian muttered in admiration.

A 13-year-old boy defeated the battle-tested knight captain. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, few people would believe it.

"But that's the truth. After Roland became a knight, he never lost a single defeat, and the Knights of Navarra he commanded was stationed at the junction of the three countries," Aojie said.

"In other words, they are all experienced elite fighters," Lim said with a serious expression.

"Nangongqing never mentioned such an important matter." Sophie smiled slightly and looked at him with her head slightly tilted.

"I don't think it's important. It's better for Ailian not to rush forward and fight one-on-one. The Invincible Sword in Roland's hand is a big move that can split dragon tools. It loses the advantage of weapons. In terms of martial arts and physical fitness, Ai Lian can't beat Luo Lan." Nangong Long leaned on the chair with a relaxed expression, without any sense of urgency to fight a powerful enemy.

"Are you serious, Nangong Qing?" Sophie frowned slightly. Ordinary weapons would break and be damaged when they touched dragon tools, let alone the unique skill of splitting dragon tools.

Ai Lian also had a serious expression on her face, she didn't think about Nangong Long saying that she couldn't beat Roland for the time being.

"Really, among all the possible weapons against dragon tools, the Invincible Sword is the only successful work. In the myth of Bruno, it is described as a treasure bestowed by the Holy Spirit to the founding father Shariel"

Sophie nodded. There are also such myths and legends in Jistat, and the founding monarch is the incarnation of a black dragon.

"I'm going to send an envoy to negotiate, can you give me some time?" Seeing that they stopped talking, Aojie said.

"random"

About an hour later, the envoys sent returned dejectedly, and the other party would not receive any envoys unless they surrendered.

"Prepare to fight, and negotiate peace after defeating the opponent"

After Nangong Long finished speaking, he walked out of the tent. After the conversation in the hall was over, they came to the camp outside the city.

Nangong Long, who was walking out of the camp, just happened to run into several other members of the neutral faction with heavy faces.

"We heard that we are about to fight the Knights of Navarra, what's going on?"

"I was convicted of treason by the capital," Nangong Long said indifferently.

"How could this happen, how could you be convicted of treason if you were fine?"

"Someone wants me to die, the two dukes don't like me"

"Is it wrong to resist the atrocities of the Duke of Canulon? Can't Her Highness the Princess come forward to explain? The Knights should not be unreasonable."

"I have already sent envoys. If you don't put down your arms and surrender, the other party will not receive the envoy. Calling the name of the princess will only deepen the misunderstanding of the other party," Aojie explained.

"Then surrender and resolve the misunderstanding, isn't it good?"
