Public trial?You deserve it too!

The shamans looked at the young shaman riding on a huge snow wolf in panic. In fact, they wanted to run away when they saw the human fighting. After all, as high-status shamans, they almost never They are all well-clothed and well-fed, and there is no need to participate in battles-until Harald became the khan, and his son was accepted by the great shaman as an apprentice, the good days of the shamans were over.
Especially after the huge defeat at the beginning of this year, the great shaman no longer defended them, and handed over all the shamans to his apprentices.
Little Harald ignored the others, just stared at Claude who was still advancing, and then waved.
All the shamans felt as if they had received an amnesty, and immediately suspended the ceremony. One by one, they couldn't wait to climb onto their own snow wolves, and then waited impatiently for their leader's order—they didn't dare to get on their mounts and run away.
"Your mission is complete, go back and wait for me at the shipyard."
"Yes, Your Highness, then we will take our leave first."
The shamans no longer used the previous titles, but called them His Highness—this also means that Khan's status has surpassed all shamans.
Soon the shamans ran away, but Little Harald obviously had no intention of evacuating.
"Your Highness, why don't you retreat first? We can use our speed to slow down the opponent, and we will retreat after you are safely out of danger."
The cavalry leader said a little anxiously.
"No, let your people stop, I'm going to meet this human warrior."
"No! Your Highness, this is too dangerous!"
Little Harald turned his head and glanced at the cavalry leader faintly. The other party was sweating profusely, fell off his mount and knelt in front of little Harald.
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, but I've gone too far."
"It's not an example."
The young shaman pushed his snow wolf forward slowly.
-------------------------------------------
Claude looked at the other orcs backing away in confusion, wondering what the other side wanted to do. Could it be that they were covered by arrow rain again?
【The ceremony has been cancelled, almost all the shamans have retreated, but there is one person who stayed and is moving towards you, he should be the real commander of this part of the orcs. 】
"What brain damage? Have you read too many knight novels?" Claude sneered in his heart, "Seeing the other party heroically slaughtering his own people on the battlefield, you can still think that the other party is awesome, and then why do you feel sorry for each other? A supreme commander on the battlefield The official still dares to show his face, you see, if I don't kill you, he will be done. He still cherishes each other, and after you die, he will have plenty of time to experience my 'sympathy' for you."
【So, what are you going to do? 】
The imperial knight put down the weapon in his hand with a righteous face, and looked righteously at the direction the opponent was coming. If it weren't for the bloody scene of the battle, this would probably be a scene that would make the bards' collective poetry flourish——Heroic Fighting alone, the knight subdued the leader of the enemy and made the opponent put down his figure, just wanting to strengthen such a brave warrior face to face.
"System, prepare magic for me. I want to blast him to death, and then follow the traces left by the group of shamans. I will definitely find the shipyard. After destroying it, I will take people to sea and return to the empire. "
The Sunshine Knight, as always, has a very sunny plan in his heart.
All living beings are children: Chapter 151 Chapter 130 [-] This is the fate of the orcs
But unfortunately, it is obvious that the other party is not the kind of person who has suffered a blow to the brain. The orc riding the huge snow wolf stopped at a distance of hundreds of meters, the light in his hand flashed, and the voice had already reached Claude. next to the ear.
"Hello, Knight of the Empire."
[It's not where the other party is really, it's just an illusion. The real distance is too far away, and the spells that can be concealed cannot pose an effective threat-with your current magic power, it can't be done. 】
'Then there's no other way, I'll pretend I'm a spell idiot first, and see if I can fool the opponent, making him think that he can come over and steal a chicken by relying on invisibility. '
Claude looked at the phantom of little Harald fearlessly, as if he hadn't noticed him at all.
"Orc, do you want to fight me?"
"Bold! This is..."
Little Harald raised his hand to stop the roar of the guards beside him, and he shook his head slightly.
"No, I will not duel with you, because I am not your opponent at all. At least in this situation, I really haven't found a way to kill you."
"Then there's nothing to talk about." Claude raised the weapon in his hand again, "Either run away with your tail between your legs, or die here!"
The young shaman laughed.
"No, I think we still have a lot to talk about—how about starting with our names? You see, I don't know your name yet, so I can't always call you a knight of the empire." Little Hara Erd seemed very kind in his words, "My name is Beowulf Harald, just call me Beowulf, how about you?"
"... Claude, Claude Kaos."
"That's Knight Claude."
The other party seemed very familiar.
"Your strength is really amazing, I think, you should already be a humble knight? And you are still so young, you must be a pillar of the empire..."
"what do you want to say in the end?"
Claude frowned, a little confused about this guy's way. Anyway, with such a sweet mouth, his heart must be dark enough.
'System, can you monitor his heartbeat? '
[Difficult, the distance is too far, you can only use your improved detection spell to roughly monitor, unless the heartbeat of the other party changes greatly, it is difficult to make a difference. 】
'Then use it first. '
The boy felt that the other party must want to say something to him.
"Oh, so you are such an impatient person." Beowulf was obviously not displeased because Claude interrupted him, "In that case, I'll get straight to the point——I want to talk to your Majesty the Emperor, build connection."
"What did you say?"
Claude was taken aback.
This was his true feelings. What surprised him was not why the other party wanted to talk to the emperor, but how could the other party know that he could see the old emperor?
"Don't be surprised, Knight Claude. In any case, the orcs' current situation is inseparable from the great help of the business alliance, so my information channels are still well-informed-so I know that the emperor of the empire It was announced a few months ago that a marriage has been arranged for the royal granddaughter of your country, Princess Letitia, and that lucky man is you, Knight Claude Kaos."
Beowulf still had a smile on his face, as if everything was under his control.
Claude was relieved, but the lights were dark again. The old emperor said in the hall before that in order to cover up the real reason why Carl and Claude returned to the imperial capital, he would get engaged to Letitia The news released to confuse the public.If the other party thought that he could meet the old emperor through this relationship, it would be logical.
"...Hmph! It really is the Merchant Alliance who is behind your back." Claude's face was still ugly, "Those bastards who have always been hostile to the empire have betrayed the glory of being a human race!"
"Can you actually know that the business alliance is behind us? It seems that you are not a simple guy, Knight Claude - no wonder that His Majesty married his beloved granddaughter to you. You are indeed a talent. In this case, we It should be easier to talk about."
Beowulf is clearly glad that Cloud isn't a brawny thing.
"But I guess, you still don't know the deeper truth?"
"A deeper level... the truth?"
Claude stared at Beowulf, feeling that he seemed to need to re-evaluate the abilities of Orc Khan.
"Of course, you know that the group of merchants in the Merchant Alliance has never been profitable, but why are they willing to help us orcs to this point? A simple transaction can't be exchanged for a big city, a port, a The navy, which started from scratch, even has so many materials and resources. Of course, this is because those businessmen are also instructed by someone behind them."
Seeing Cloud's shocked expression again, Beowulf told the truth.
"The one who can command the Merchant Alliance is, of course, the country that stands in the south of the empire. It is the existence that is equal to your empire on the mainland-The Church!"
"This...it's impossible! Although the empire and the church state have always been at odds, it is impossible to cooperate with you non-human races! Otherwise, the existence of their church country will have no meaning-they have betrayed their own teachings !"
The words of refutation blurted out, obviously the knight still had naive illusions about the Theocracy.
"Ha, the doctrine? How much is the doctrine worth?" Beowulf sneered, obviously disdainful of what Claude said, "You don't think that the guy who can join forces with the merchant alliance to block the empire has any bottom line? ? Don’t look at these people who talk about doctrine, but their hearts are full of business.”
"Think about it, how did the Principality of Wallachia die 11 years ago? Obviously, when the Principality of Wallachia was still in existence, the elves invaded the border almost every year, and even the empire would give some help, but Wallachia After the fall of Asia, when did you hear the news of the elves attacking the newly established Wallachia diocese in the Theocracy?"
Claude opened his mouth, but didn't say anything. Instead, he frowned and thought carefully.
Beowulf nodded secretly. It seems that the knight has been convinced by his own words, and the other party should be willing to listen carefully to the deal he proposed for the time being.
"... There is no basis for my words. Although I will not naively believe that the Theocracy will not use such despicable methods, I will not believe your words—especially because you are not human, and I believe that if it is true The Theocracy is behind the scenes, and the Imperial Intelligence Bureau will definitely find something."
Claude obviously wasn't fooled that easily.
"That's right. Although I haven't met the Imperial Intelligence Agency, I can see the fear of those businessmen towards them, so I am willing to believe in their abilities." Beowulf nodded, "So this is a very good one." Isn’t it a means of verification? If the Imperial Intelligence Bureau really finds out that the Theocracy is involved, I think you should be able to understand what kind of gains you can get from cooperating with us orcs, right?”
"The first is information. With us, you will be able to learn more about the business alliance. In the plan of the Theocracy, we orcs have also played a very important part. We are willing to tell you all, so that the empire will not be unable to start. And the same way, the empire no longer has to maintain a powerful but useless army in the north, and even if you need a [big victory expedition], we can meet it and provide enough orc warrior heads For you guys."
Claude's face was full of disbelief, even with a hint of sarcasm.
"With such a favorable condition, I really feel that you are betraying your own race, Your Excellency Shaman."
"Hahaha, of course I understand that this seems fake, but in the current situation of the orcs, if you don't show [-]% sincerity, how can you impress the empire?" Beowulf laughed, "It doesn't matter, everything is fine." We started from scratch, and after the first small exchange of information, we will slowly show all our sincerity—after all, what the orcs have now is something that the empire doesn’t like.”
Claude hesitated, he stared at Beowulf: "Can you let your people die?"
"Not my people, but those who have ulterior motives and are eager to turn the orc into the guy who wandered around on the grassland again. They are not orcs, but murderers who will let the orcs bleed to the last drop of blood!"
The young man fell silent. Looking at the orc's expression that didn't seem to be fake, he spoke again, but this time, his tone was no longer mocking.
"...Then what do you orcs want?"
Become!
The expression on Beowulf's face began to grow more friendly.
"What we want is an armistice treaty. The number of our orcs is already very small, and our ambitions are also very small. The entire Qianli Snow Mountain is already the limit we want to occupy. We don't want to go back to the original nomadic life. , the orcs will become a new country, and then establish diplomatic relations with the empire. The empire can continue to sit back and relax in the Karelian fortress, but we just want to stay in our ancestral land with peace of mind, live, grow old, get sick and die."
"...I want to ask, who are you? Can you have such a qualification to propose such a transaction condition to the empire?"
Claude narrowed his eyes.
"I'm just the son of the current orc khan—but I'm also the disciple of the orc great shaman, and I will control the entire shamanism in the future, so I think I still have a little right to speak and can guarantee this transaction .”
Beowulf sat on the snow wolf's back and saluted slightly.
-----------------------------------------------------------
When Randolph led the people to the place where Claude lit the wolf smoke, there were only piles of corpses and Claude who looked a little tired.
After all, it is necessary to hurry up and cover those incomplete corpses with relatively complete corpses. At least the superficial work needs to be done. As for what to do later... Isn’t there a wolf, and it is reasonable for wolves to gnaw corpses to pieces right?In short, the meat sauce and broken bones below have nothing to do with my Sunshine Knight.
"I didn't expect you to find it."
Randolph was full of admiration.
"Yeah, look around, I can detect such a big fire scene through the thick fog - no wonder the other party dare not perform the ceremony at night, otherwise there will be a fire on the shore, which will definitely arouse alertness." Crowe De pointed to the surroundings, and the "retreat" of the orcs dropped a lot of burning objects.
"Yeah, it's such a big arrangement. I guess the other party has been preparing here for a long time?" Randolph's face was a little dignified. "Then what should we do next? Burn the corpse with these things?"
"No, it's not necessary, we still have a lot of use for these woods." Claude shook his head and refused, "The ships of the Vanguard Fleet should be damaged a lot now, and there will be many people who need to be stationed on the ground. If there is no burning material, The days ahead are going to be tough for us.”
"That's right... What about these corpses? Are they piled up here?"
"Let's just pile it up here. Anyway, it's already autumn and it's snowed. These corpses won't have the possibility of causing plague." Claude obviously thought of an excuse a long time ago, "Besides, the beasts here should Not a lot, right? Let them handle it, there is no need to collect the corpses for them."
"Compared to this, the orc navy should retreat, right? You go and ask Georgi to bring people over, and we will take these logs back."
"Yes, Captain!"
Randolph took the order and ran south to the beach.
Claude turned his head and looked to the north with deep eyes.
【Do you really believe what that little Khan said? 】
"Besides that they want a truce, they don't believe a word of it."
Claude sneered.
[So you really want to agree to help the other party with a message? 】
"Talk? How old is he, can I let Lao Tzu talk to him?" Claude dismissed, "It's not that he said that as long as I help him, he will give me the location and map of the shipyard, and let me immediately Is it a great achievement? Then I will follow his words and get the map first, everything else is empty.”
【...Didn't you say that you are a person who abides by the spirit of the contract?As long as you promise to trade with others, you will definitely honor it. 】
"It's a barbarian, not a human being."
The corner of Claude's mouth raised a cold arc.
"And do you remember what he said before? He wants to get rid of those unstable elements, make the orcs a new country, and is also preparing to establish diplomatic relations with the empire."
[This... is there any problem? 】
"It's a huge problem, which means that he personally gave his own race a death sentence in front of me."
A cloud drifted past, covering Claude in the shadows.
"A nomadic people, establishing a country means that they start to have their own culture, their own national consciousness - this is absolutely intolerable! So I will destroy their country, burn their cities, and crush their culture , kill all their people, so that the orcs will no longer be a threat to humans."
The young man showed his sharp white teeth, like a dragon that chooses to eat someone.
"Didn't he say that he wants to form an orc nation? Well, then, as he wishes, let the orcs, as a country, be sent to the dust of history forever by me."

"Your Highness Beowulf, you seem to be looking forward to making a deal with that human? You even told him the location of the shipyard..."
