You and me under the world tree

"At this time, we should see his performance." Huo De said calmly

Compared to Hagen's anxiety, he was at ease at this moment and looked confident.

"Your Highness..."

Although the sage used a slightly different term than usual, Hagen didn't think about anything else at all.

Naturally, he thought that the sage must be talking about Siegfried.

Therefore, he couldn't help turning his eyes to his lord again.

At this moment, Siegfried didn't seem to be in any panic, and his eyes swept over the people present.

At the moment when many people remained silent, no one spoke, and some even only had such a strange low laughter.

Moreover, this kind of laughter did not come from the people, but from the man who is still kneeling on the ground so far.

legney...

For some reason, he burst out laughing.

Perhaps it was mocking Siegfried's cold silence.

However, the young hero did nothing else, he didn't get angry, and he didn't have any other negative performances.

He didn't even hold back Legney's bleak, sarcastic laugh.

At this moment, the dragon slaying hero just took his eyes away from the false king, and then turned to his people again.

"People of the Netherlands, answer me why you still keep your head down."

His volume wasn't very high, but the slightly deep voice swept away with the help of magic.

For those ordinary people, it is more like the sound that directly echoes in the ears.

"Is this kind of thinking strange? Does the so-called honor have to be forged with war and blood?"

His voice echoed, and from this voice, many sensitive people could hear a trace of disappointment.

"I have traveled to many places, from the cruel northern peninsula to the new kingdom in the east. On the way, I have seen families whose wives were separated by war. Of course, those villages ravaged by war will become An honor, but more of a pain."

Then, Siegfried took a deep breath.

"Tell me, people of the Netherlands, in your opinion, is the illusory honor more important than the happiness that is close at hand? Wanting to see the happiness of family reunion... this kind of ideal is really worthless mention it?"

Faced with the series of questions from Siegfried, the soldiers couldn't help but start to shake.

They spent more time with Siegfried, and His Royal Highness would chat with them about family matters whenever he had something to do, and when he heard them describe the recent situation at home, he would even show a look of envy from the bottom of his heart.

Only after experiencing pain can one understand the weight of what His Royal Highness said today.

"Tell me, people of the Netherlands, what kind of life are you longing for!"

"huh huh huh huh……"

Then, at the moment when the crowd was gradually commotioning, some kind of weird laughter suddenly became clear and loud.

It's Legney...

And I don't know how to do it, his voice spreads with the effect of magic like Siegfried.

It looked as if he himself was casting a spell.

Chapter 68: Everyone is Selfish

At this moment, no one would have thought that Legney would react suddenly.

So when his kind of laughter spread with the effect of magic, the commotion among the crowd inevitably became more serious.

Legney's posture was too embarrassing, so people had subconsciously forgotten that he himself was a king who hooked up with followers of the necromancer organization and Queen Hela.

No one knows if Legney learned anything from the organization when he joined it.

Moreover, according to the gossip that came from nowhere, the false king seemed to have died for a time.

At that time, he even erupted with a force capable of crushing the long-famous Sage Volsunger.

Therefore, when he used some means beyond normal people's expectations, a kind of panic quickly spread among the crowd.

"Quiet!"

Finally, a dull but majestic voice spread out.

This voice directly suppressed Legney's weird laughter, and then the man in the cloak slowly walked out of the crowd.

He was carrying a heavy heavy sword on his back, and every move he made looked like an extremely good warrior.

However, he is not a pure fighter.

At least, those who have met him will never ignore his wisdom hidden under the armor and his brutal spells.

And after seeing him appearing elusive, the soldiers completely relaxed.

One is the Dragon Slaying Hero of the Western Mountains, the Lord of Armies.

One was the hero's mentor and the true friend of the true king of the Netherlands.

With these two people around, the warriors felt at ease, because there was no one they couldn't subdue in the entire atrium—at least that's what the warriors believed.

On the other hand, perhaps because of the low-key reason, the people generally don't know the sage, and they don't know the attire.

However, those fighters gave them confidence after all.

Because the soldiers in these armies were still standing in front of them like an iron wall, they didn't just break up or run away.

In this case, they just looked at the false king who was spurned by them before with their eyes still in shock.

I don't know if it's some kind of illusion, but after Legney made that frightening sound in an unconventional way, he looks a lot more majestic than before.

However, this majesty is actually a different kind of oppressive force, which is the self-suggestion of the people.

When linked to followers of necromancers, dark wizards, and the queen of death, Legney's embarrassed image even exudes a frightening and terrifying atmosphere.

Then he just laughed there, that strange, sharp, mocking laugh that didn't stop for a while.

During this process, no one stopped him, neither Siegfried nor Hodder.

Even at this moment Siegfried just narrowed his eyes.

To be honest, he did have such a shred of fear towards Legney.

Although he is very clear, the facts are completely different from what the outside world tells.

It is rumored that Legni once suppressed the sages of Volsung after erupting his own necromantic magic, but this is impossible.

After all, Siegfried witnessed the last scene, which can be said to be a positive crush.

Even under the curse of necromancy, the false king is not even a match for the sage.

Although a battle broke out in the palace before, and according to Hodder himself, his spreading curse is also very tricky.

But it was the curse itself, not Legney, that was the problem for Hodder.

Therefore, Siegfried himself has no need to be afraid of anything.

And now, again, the young hero is disturbed by the fact that he does not know the source of the curse, since his uncle is not certain about it either.

However, since he has gained that kind of power, it also means to some extent that he himself does have a background.

It's the guys standing behind Legney who really care about...

Thinking of this, Siegfried couldn't help showing a coldness on his handsome face.

"Is there anything funny?"

"Hmph, why not?"

Siegfried's amplifying magic has been working, and the rune has been working since the moment the characterization was completed.

As for Legney himself, he didn't know what kind of mentality he was holding, and he didn't lower his voice just because of this.

So the conversation between the two quickly spread.

"You have good intentions for them, but they may not respect you, because that's how the people are. These untouchables are like dogs who only know how to obey."

At the same time, the words of the old king were full of mockery.

This kind of ridicule is not only aimed at Siegfried, but more importantly, his disdainful attitude is completely aimed at the public.

Those civilians seem to be a humble and vicious existence in his cognition, so his attitude is like this.

His reputation itself has fallen to the bottom, so one can imagine the consequences of these words.

"Shut up! False king!"

"You traitor who works with necromancers!"

"Damn Legney! You have completely disgraced the Hengding family!"

In this way, the sound of crusades sounded one after another, and Legney's words naturally attracted the anger of the people.

However, in the face of the denunciation of the surrounding people, he remained unmoved.

After all, he has been a king for more than 20 years. Although it is just a false power accumulated through a cruel reign of terror, this power does exist.

Even in his most despondent present, he only needs to give him a hard look, and those people who are a little timid can quickly silence their voices.

Then, he didn't look at those civilians anymore, but just raised his head and stared at Siegfried.

It is still noon now, and Sur is still driving the sun chariot galloping above the sky, and the light shines on the earth.

However, perhaps because Siegfried was somewhat tall, when Legney raised his head, he always felt that he was in the shadows.

For a moment, Legney once again felt the fear that twitched in his heart.

However, he was not as hysterical or lost his composure as before.

"Siegfried, did you see that people are like this, when you want to consider them as a friend, really consider them, they are silent and even take it for granted, but you make them feel uncomfortable In due course, they will be excited."

Legney's calm voice echoed like this, and when his voice resounded here, the crowd that was still in chaos suddenly calmed down.

Silent...

"Everyone is selfish, even with family members."

"Don't compare them to people like you..."

"On par?"

Hearing Siegfried's cold words, Legney just shook his head.

"No, that's the fact. I recruited those fighters from the surrounding towns before the war, 800 people, and none of them survived now."

In this regard, Legney turned his attention to those civilians.

"I guess most of the people around here should theoretically know those 800 people. After all, most of them are people from the city or surrounding villages. But even so, do you think they have any intention of reflecting?"

When he said this, the corners of Legney's mouth even rose unconsciously.

vicious, mocking...

"No, because you are too gentle, so gentle that you are a little naive. You are busy occupying this territory and striving to bring them a better life, but in the final analysis, human beings do not remember food. Your prestige It is based on your benevolence and righteousness, so the level of prestige is a mess."

Finally, Legney sighed.

At this moment, his slightly cloudy eyes turned into the distance.

Passing over the royal city, it was like looking at a certain direction.

"Look, look at these people, they are a bunch of sluts... Only when the cruelty really happened in front of their eyes, they will feel the pain."

In the end, the populace probably couldn't stand Legney's insults.

I don't know who started to take the lead, and the abuse began to echo again.

Moreover, the voices of these people were extremely noisy.

Everyone scolded each other, and the voice even overshadowed the effect of the magic of amplification for a while.

At the same time, not only these people, but even the Valkyrie above the sky frowned when Legney said these words.

Chapter 69: Gift of the Gods

Hodder was not mistaken before, because there was indeed a Valkyrie in the sky watching the trial.
