The Sun King's Evidence

Chapter 264, collective surrender

In midsummer, the new Earl of Glamorgan, the top of the Dawn Mage Tower, the private area of ​​Gloria Councilwoman Veronica, the master bedroom.

The newly installed air conditioner is blowing gusts of cold wind in the room. On the soft big bed, a dog and a man are sleeping in each other's arms. The sun is shining brightly outside, but a strange smell is filling the house.

The noble earl gasped twice. He closed his eyes, but felt the hair brushing against his face.

It feels very itchy.

Ryan tried to escape, but Wenxiang Nephrite, who was lying on his chest, held him tight.

"Okay, honey, don't make trouble~" Ryan could only open his eyes.

Veronica is lying on top of him. The sweet melon face of the Witch of Gloria is full of happiness and suspicious blush. Her jade hands are holding a strand of her hair, and the dark brown hair is on Ryan's face. Sweep around.

"Don't make trouble~" Ryan stretched out his hand again, and the Earl easily grabbed the wrist of the Gloria Witch. Veronica did not resist at all. On the contrary, the Gloria Witch leaned on Ryan's chest, and her voice was like a dream: "Dear, thank you. you……"

"We don't need to say thank you, Veronica, you deserve this." A touch of warmth spread between the two people. Ryan hugged Veronica tightly. The two looked at each other and smiled. Ronika closed her eyes and kissed Ryan.

Three minutes later, Veronica gasped and pushed Ryan away: "It's time to get up, Ryan. The hot water has been put on Catherine. You can take a shower and then go back to the castle."

Ryan nodded. He should really get up. The Earl turned over. He noticed that Veronica was still lying on the bed and couldn't get up, so he smiled and said, "Why don't we take a bath together?"

"Take a bath together? Oh, my God, I don't want to take a bath for two hours. All I can do is grab the railing and let you toss it around." Veronica reached out and rubbed her waist dissatisfied: "Stop talking. My waist is still very sore and my legs don’t have any strength, so I want to sleep for a while.”

Ryan was getting dressed, and he touched Veronica's cheek lovingly.

Veronica risked her life last night. She and Ryan fought until early morning. Now Ryan is no longer what he used to be. The Witch of Gloria was killed and had to cede territory for peace and was defeated.

Ryan understands what Veronica means. In fact, as she said, Veronica knows that her relationship with Ryan is now at a weak point, and Veronica has no cards left to play. In order to express She needs this for her own love.

After finishing the work early yesterday morning, the two hugged each other and talked for a long time. Veronica couldn't even help crying. Having a luxurious wizard tower of her own is the dream of all witches, and with the help of Ryan, Veronica Realizing this dream at the age of twenty-nine, she has completely gone ahead of everyone. She is the first female member of Gloria to build her own wizard tower before the age of thirty.

"I still miss you last night." Ryan turned over and said with a smile. Veronica in the morning had completely restored her usual sharp and shrewd personality. The woman who cried last night seemed to be a dream, only Ryan knew that such witches existed.

"Hmph~" Veronica blushed and seemed to remember her own lapse. She spoke mercilessly: "My great knight, do you still have this kind of hobby? Then I think you can go find it. Your little Princess Jialan, she will definitely cry for you!"

"Hahaha~ Even now, you still don't give up mocking Theresa. Veronica, is there really that kind of undying hatred between you and Theresa?" Ryan said helplessly.

Veronica adjusted her skirt and leaned against the bed. She was a little stunned when she heard Ryan's question. After thinking for a while, the Witch of Gloria suddenly sneered: "Actually, it seems to be exactly what you said, no matter what I have defeated her in spells, wizard towers, and men. It seems that I really don’t have to argue with her anymore, but after hearing your question, I feel that I still need to entangle with her."

"That's just your jealousy, honey." Ryan was going to the bathroom, but after hearing these words, he turned around: "Veronica, show me."

The Witch of Gloria rolled her eyes at Ryan. Seeing his firm attitude, she shyly opened her skirt. On her belly as white as suet and jade, the spiritual mark left by Ryan was still in operation.

The silver sword heart pattern always stores Ryan's spiritual energy, and it is worth noting that the wings on both sides have been fully opened. When Ryan's fingers gently touch the spiritual pattern, the spiritual pattern immediately sparkles in response.

"Dear, what's wrong?" Veronica's face turned a little red.

"It's done. My spirit pattern engraving has penetrated deeply into your body and soul." Ryan's fingers brushed over the beautiful patterns: "This means that you can master more advanced magic in the future without fear of being corrupted by Chaos. mean……"

"It also means that I have become your thing, doesn't it?" Veronica glared at Ryan: "Tell me, dear, how many women have this on their bodies now?"

"I just carved Orica's body a few days ago, and now there are three." Ryan always likes to tell the truth, Veronica is a smart woman, and he will not lie.

"You will definitely carve one for your female knight in the future, even though she doesn't know magic, so will our little Princess Gloria also get one?" Veronica continued to ask, looking like she was quite interested in this.

"Sulia will definitely be there in the future. As for Theresa...she was unplanned. In fact, she did not exist in my long-term plan. I did not expect that I would meet her when I set out from Nord. The Gloria Council has temporarily changed its members." Ryan shook his head in distress: "But she chased her all the way here..."

A smile flashed across Veronica's beautiful almond eyes: "That's because you are so good, my dear, okay, go take a shower, I want to sleep for a while."

"Yeah." Ryan kissed Veronica gently on the lips, turned and walked towards the bathroom.

…………

If something has caused a sensation in the Earl of Glamorgan recently, it must have been the many decrees issued by the Earl himself.

The announcement of the fixed agricultural tax did not cause much reaction from the knights, because on the surface, the interests of the knights did not suffer much. At most, the knights just chatted after tea and dinner, saying that this was a mercy of the earl and the hard-working serfs. They can save more food. As for those serfs who are not hardworking, the knights are too lazy to care about their life and death.

The serfs reacted with some panic to the fixed tax. In order to stabilize people's hearts, Sulia sent many family knights and knight retinues. They were responsible for publishing notices in all villages, explaining the changes in tax rates loudly, and then asked the serfs to Memorizing and reciting, if you memorize it well, you can get a handful of copper coins and two pieces of black bread. If you can't recite it, you can get so many rewards if you recite it loudly twenty times. In this way, the serfs' somewhat frightened hearts are finally relieved. After settling down, the vast majority of serfs were illiterate, and most serfs could not count. The real difference would not be felt until the autumn harvest was taxed.

What really caused controversy was the "German Government Decree" promulgated by Lane. The decree announced that all bandits and bandits in the territory must unconditionally surrender to the earl within a month. Those who surrender can receive a reduction of their crimes or even forget the guilt. There is a large amount of wasteland within the earl territory and in the Chalon Forest that needs to be cultivated on a first-come, first-served basis. If time passes, then those waiting for these robbers will be the Knight of the Holy Grail, the God-chosen Champion of the Fairy of the Lake, and Glamorgan. The wrath of Earl Lion Malcador.

It was a sunny morning, the fifth day after the German government decree was promulgated.

A large group of uninvited guests were welcomed at the door of the count's castle. A large group of soldiers surrounded them. The sergeants all looked at the uninvited guests with hateful eyes. They held the hilts of their swords and filled their hearts with hope. Angry and puzzled, in their view, these robbers were all military merits, and the Count's "German Government Order" deprived the soldiers of the opportunity to make meritorious deeds.

But there was no way. Ryan's prestige and reputation were too great. The soldiers did not have the guts to question and oppose the count's decree. The leader, Sergeant Denis, wore chainmail, with a dwarf's fine sword hanging on his waist, and carrying a dwarf sword on his back. The big bow entertains these bandit leaders.

You don’t know it, but it’s really shocking to see. On this day, all the bandit leaders in the earl territory came to the castle with their deputies and surrendered to Ryan. There were dozens of people standing outside the castle. The bandit leaders They dedicated all their accumulated wealth to Lane, allowed themselves to be searched by the sergeant, and then accepted Katzenberg's arrangement.

The bandit leaders cooperated very well. Butler Katzenberg ordered all the bandit leaders to take a rest in a room in the castle castle and wait for the count's reception.

As soon as they entered the room, the bandit leaders started making a fuss.

"Petty! You bastard! I thought I was the first to arrive, but it turns out you were the first to arrive!" A bandit leader shouted dissatisfied: "Damn it, if you don't come, I will surrender to Lord Ryan. that would be nice!"

Petty, the leader of the spear thieves group, has dozens of thieves under his command, and is good at using spear formations.

"Come on! Gross, you bastard! You are obviously the furthest away from Jean Town, but you come with me?" Another bandit leader exaggeratedly shouted: "Okay, everyone is here! I'm the one who came. He’s the first one who wants to surrender!”

Gross, the leader of the Pollack Bandit Gang, his first thought after hearing the "German Decree" was to surrender to Lane.

No one wants to confront Ryan, the Knight of the Holy Grail, the Lady's God's Chosen Champion, and his reputation in the kingdom is at the peak of his popularity. The bandits were originally in panic because of Ryan's appearance, thinking that they were destined to die, but now they see that they can surrender and be lenient. Given the opportunity to deal with it, all the bandit leaders instinctively thought of surrendering, and they immediately rushed over.

A dozen bandit leaders were arguing in the room, and the scene was a mess.

"Hugo, you little bastard, your people have never been active in the earl territory, why did you come to surrender?" After the robbers had a quarrel, they discovered that there was a familiar face who was silent and hiding in the corner. Inside: "Get out of here quickly. You are obviously a robber from the Principality of Berleon. Why are you here?"

"Who... who said that the bandits of Berlion can't surrender to Lord Ryan? I, I am here to surrender!" The bandit leader named Hugo was obviously guilty, but he still defended forcefully: "I have already I brought all the brothers to the Count, and since two days ago, I have been Lord Lane’s robber.”

"Hahahaha! What does it mean that you are Lord Ryan's robber? Are you worthy of it?"

"You don't deserve it, I do!"

"You deserve a **!"

The bandit leaders know that this is the Earl's castle and cannot take action, but this does not prevent these bandits from frantically trying to undermine each other. Everyone wants to be appreciated by Lord Ryan.

No one really wants to be a robber for life. They all long to return to society with a decent identity.

"Speaking of which, where is Bertrand? He didn't come to surrender? Is he blinded by lard?"

"I do not know."

In the room of the outer castle, the bandit leaders were quarreling. In the inner castle of the castle, a man with a mustache, a green tricorn hat with wings, a green coat and green tights, looked to be in his thirties. The 20-year-old man was kneeling in front of Ryan and presented several pieces of parchment: "My Lord, this is a list of all the properties and personnel of the Bergerac Thieves Group. We have 350 tents and more than 800 people." , nearly five hundred of them are all good hands with swords and bows, good boys who can be equipped with spears. Now, I, Bertrand, on behalf of all the Bergerac thieves, are willing to surrender to you unconditionally. Please We are willing to accept any punishment you can be lenient with.”

Ryan came out from behind the table. He stretched out his hand to help Bertrand up and said with a smile: "I really didn't expect that you would arrive with your people the day after I promulgated the "German Policy Decree." You suffer."

"No, no, no! Your Excellency, please don't say that. It is our honor to surrender to you. All of us in the Bergerac Band of Thieves are grateful for your tolerance and mercy." The bandit leader Bertrand knelt down and kowtowed: "We were forced to choose to become bandits. The count is willing to give us this opportunity to change our ways. We sincerely thank you."

"..." Watching Bertrand kneel and kowtow, Ryan's expression was a little speechless. He still underestimated people's desire for the so-called "return to the right path" in a world with gods. No one wants to be an unbeliever. After death, the soul becomes the fertilizer of Chaos. Most people who become bandits do so because they have no choice but to survive.

Lane originally thought this way. After issuing the German government order, the bandits were still hesitating. He sent an envoy with his own government order to find the bandits: The count asked me to give you a message, as long as you can surrender...

It was only the fifth day after the "Germany Decree" was issued. Not to mention the bandits in his earldom, and even bandits from other principalities came all the way to surrender to him!

That's what reputation does, and after years of building it up, Lane's reputation has finally come into its own.

"Then I will name you..."
