I weave my destiny in parallel time and space
Chapter 188 Chivalry
In the south of Britannia, in a hidden second-floor conference room in the Prince's Palace of Steam City.
Prince Victor was sitting at his desk with a gloomy expression, and the curtains on the surrounding windows were drawn.
The decoration here is very luxurious, in Baroque style, the floors and walls are all marble, and there is even a picture of Zeus sitting on the throne on the ceiling.
There were many people sitting around the office, all dressed in gorgeous clothes. They looked like the upper class of Britannia. Sitting here were some nobles and generals from the south, all of whom were supporters of Victor.
"As soon as this Arthur comes up, he will ask me to hand over all the military power in my hands, and he will have full authority to manage the southern front."
Victor gritted his teeth and said, "What an arrogant guy! Do you really think you are some kind of legendary king after defeating a bunch of rabble?"
One of the people in the crowd said, "The shadow of my subordinate said that the new emperor has sent his henchmen to start investigating the witch hunt.
Some church priests have been secretly arrested and imprisoned, but we don’t know where they are. "
"The plague hasn't been resolved yet, and the Spanish Empire's army hasn't been repulsed yet. Are they trying to cause trouble for us?" another person said.
"We sent many assassins, and even tried to assassinate him by poisoning him, but this emperor is really powerful and terrifying." The person who spoke at the beginning had some lingering fear in his eyes, "The people we sent out were basically There’s no coming back.”
"Is there no way? Wood." Victor asked.
Wood thought for a moment and said tentatively, "Otherwise, we overturned the table?
We now have an army of 300,000 people, so it is not impossible to succeed. "
"The news from the imperial capital is that this new emperor can form an army by himself." One of them frowned, "He once defeated the West French army that entered the Maria Mountains with a single sword.
The great emperor is already famous. If he uses that sword again, our military morale will definitely collapse. "
Victor also shook his head and said, "Even if we can barely defeat Arthur and both sides suffer losses, the Spanish Empire will ultimately benefit.
They can take this opportunity to annex the entire south, which is the worst outcome for us. "
The surrounding nobles and Victor's staff also started talking among themselves.
"Then what should we do? Should we just sit back and wait for death?"
"Damn it, is the King of Destiny really that powerful?
How could the battlefield on the Eastern Front be resolved within half a year?
That's not just West France, that's the entire coalition!
All our plans were disrupted. "
"My people told me about the conditions on the battlefield over there. I have never seen such a battle in my life.
Everywhere the Brittanian army went, they were warmly welcomed by the local people.
It was as if what was coming in was not an enemy army, but a savior. "
"What did West France do to make their people hate their country so much?"
"You should ask what the Eternal King is doing there. The situation in Britannia is only worse than in West France."
"And the army he brought. I went to the military camp three days ago to see it. It's really amazing. It's a truly victorious army. It's a true victorious army."
"I have seen it too, and I can only say that it is indeed an army that can defeat the enemy with 200,000 against 600,000.
I heard that these troops came from the west. As far as I know, the troops in the west have not fought in a long time and definitely do not have such quality. "
"That's what happens under King Arthur."
“His ability to train the military is absolutely top-notch, and his tactical and strategic vision is also exceptional.
I heard that he was only fourteen years old, and I had never heard of such a person in the past.
Where did he get all this knowledge? "
"Can I only say that it is worthy of destiny?"
The people who met him gradually changed from discussing how to deal with Arthur to lamenting Arthur's abilities and methods.
Victor's already frowning frown deepened.
"Okay! Don't forget my purpose of gathering you here.
Didn't you see what King Arthur did in West France?
If he can attack the nobles there, he can attack you!
We are the same! "
People came back to their senses and fell into deep contemplation.
For a moment, the whole office fell silent.
"I do have an idea."
Hearing this, people raised their heads and looked at him.
"Most of his power should come from the sword in the stone." Wood said.
"If we steal the sword in the stone or destroy it, maybe the situation will be much better."
"This is impossible." Victor shook his head, "We have tried this before.
His sword in the stone never leaves his body, and no one can take the sword from his hands. "
"Listen to me first." Wood said patiently.
He looked at the people around him, "In that ancient British legend.
King Arthur's sword in the stone was not indestructible, it was broken.
It broke during the duel with King Belinor.
At that time, King Belinor refused to fight with swords many times and only fought with spears.
The first two lance contests were evenly matched, but King Arthur unfortunately lost the third time.
Although King Bolinor repeatedly emphasized that he did not want to compete with swordsmen, King Arthur, who refused to admit defeat, finally drew his sword. After a fight to the death, the sword in the stone was cut off by King Bolinor.
When King Bolinor learned that his opponent was King Arthur, he was afraid that the defeated King Arthur would seek revenge later. He was afraid and tried to kill King Arthur on the spot to avoid future troubles. Fortunately, the magician Merlin helped Arthur escape.
That was a turning point in King Arthur's fate. "
"But we don't have King Berlino here?" Victor frowned.
"Although the Sword in the Stone was cut off by King Bolino, the main reason was not him." Wood looked around and said, "It was because King Arthur violated the code of chivalry. He had made an agreement with King Bolino before that he could not Used a sword, but broke his promise because he refused to admit defeat.”
Victor's eyes flashed with shock, "In other words, if tempting him violates the knight's code, there is also the possibility of breaking the Sword in the Stone?"
"The sword in the stone is the king's sword," Wood said. "The sword holder must be a noble person, but a story is just a story after all. I can't guarantee whether it will succeed."
"But this may be our only breakthrough." Victor's eyes flashed.
"But...how to break through?" One of them whispered softly.
"The code of chivalry consists of eight spirits: humility, honor, sacrifice, heroism, mercy, honesty, justice, and reason.
There are also nine rules: be kind to the weak, fight against rape, fight against all wrongs, fight for the defenseless, help anyone who asks me for help, do no harm to any woman, help my brother knights, treat my friends sincerely, and treat my friends with sincerity. Love till death. "
"It sounds like a lot of rules, but in fact they are very general. And King Arthur is not stupid. If you are too deliberate, he will notice it."
"Then let him lose his mind." Victor's eyes flashed, "Under certain circumstances, it is difficult for people to think rationally.
Such as anger. "
He looked at the middle-aged man wearing a priest's clothing on the other side and said.
"Father Thomas, I don't care about the internal struggles of your Nightmare Order.
But I think you don't want to lose control of southern Britannia, right?
Arthur is our common enemy. "
He was a thin, middle-aged man with half-white hair, a sallow complexion, and deeply sunken eye sockets. The gold-rimmed pince-nez seemed to have become part of his face.
Except for the ribbon, the whole body was completely black, except for the thin red rims on the buttonholes, which looked like bloodstains drawn with a red pen.
Thomas was silent for a moment and said, "What do you want to say?"
"I remember you have some very special abilities, right?"
I was a little stuck yesterday, but I figured it out today. Arthur's plot limits the extent to which I can extend the timeline, which prevents many plots from unfolding, so I plan to finish writing Arthur's plot as soon as possible.
Then enter the next stage of coolness.
