387. Sean's Simple and Crude Crack
Sean's laughter was soft, but it was particularly loud because the environment was quieter at the moment.
The slightly raised corners of his mouth also made Sean's smile look very bright and clean, but the slightly narrowed eyes made many people's hearts flash a trace of fear, like a predator who was about to launch a hunt after discovering its prey.
The envoy from the military department of the Duchy of Lane turned slightly red after a moment of fright, and instantly felt angry at his retreat at this moment, because he felt a feeling of humiliation.
In terms of title, although he has no actual territory, he is also an earl anyway, and he is far more than Sean in terms of title alone. In terms of family background, he was born in a well-known old aristocratic family in the principality, Finlistin, and this family is also one of the founding fathers of the Duchy of Lane, so even small nobles with ordinary territories have to be polite when they see him. Of course, the most important thing is that his current identity is to represent the commander of the military department in this war, and in terms of status, he is also the type that belongs to Sean, or even half a level higher than him.
And the thought that he was actually frightened by a guy whose comprehensive background was far inferior to his own, this military envoy from Finlistine felt extremely annoyed.
"You, what are you laughing at!"
"Nothing." Although Sean still had a smile on his face, the aura on his body began to become dangerous, "As soon as you came, you injured all my people, you are so arrogant and domineering, do you military commanders know what to do?" ”
"What do you mean?" The military envoy's brows furrowed slightly, and his intuition told him that this was not a good word, but he didn't know how to refute it.
"It's not interesting." Sean shrugged his shoulders and said lightly, "I'll just ask you one thing, is the person who injured my soldiers the idiot out there now?" ”
Idiot!?
Hear Sean's words. Everyone in the room was stunned for a moment.
And Sean soon felt a very murderous momentum surging towards him.
This momentum naturally came from the powerhouse of the upper golden peak outside the door.
No strong man will ever allow himself to be provoked by a weak man. With Sean's strength as a superior silver, he will naturally not be taken into account by that strong man, if the family behind Sean is strong enough, it may be able to deter the other party, but Sean is just a baron, and this identity is naturally not taken into account by the other party.
He had murderous intent towards Sean, and it was a matter of course.
Or to put it mildly, even if he kills Sean. It doesn't necessarily mean that it will really be buried because of this. After all, for the Principality of Lane, there are not many powerhouses at the peak of the upper golden rank, especially those who have the hope of breaking through the realm and entering the holy realm, which is even rarer.
So if Sean and the other party have a conflict, what kind of choice will the Duchy of Lane make? It's simply obvious.
It's just a matter of what kind of choice the Duchy of Lane makes. It's not on Sean's radar at all.
When this killing intent enveloped Sean. The other three momentums were not weaker than the aura of this golden powerhouse at all, and they erupted in the conference room on the spot.
These three momentum came from Rena, Shephaneo and Tiny respectively.
The breath as cold as a knife also locked on the golden powerhouse at the moment when the other party's breath locked on Sean.
In an instant, the face of this strong man changed drastically, because he never thought that behind this baron there were actually three strong men whose strength was not inferior to him at all. Especially one of the vast cold breaths. It made him feel the threat of death, and under this killing intent that went straight to his heart, it was really difficult for him to raise any thoughts of resistance. And the thought of this made the golden powerhouse's face even bigger. Because he found that he was actually dismantled by the other party at that moment just now.
The golden powerhouse's face changed many times in an instant, and naturally he couldn't hide it from the others in the room. It was also at this moment that those nobles finally had to admit a truth that they didn't want to remember at all. Connery's command is indeed as strong as a cloud, there are as many as three powerhouses in the Golden Realm alone, among which Shefanio's strength is the most powerful, and this priest with a knife has almost completely reached the level of a quasi-Sanctuary powerhouse.
It's just that they can't figure out why this priest with a knife from the church would follow Sean's instructions?
"What do you want to do?" The military envoy was a very clever and slick person, and just looking at the attitude of the nobles in the conference room, he immediately knew that this lord was far from being as simple as he imagined, so he didn't say anything harsh.
However, Sean was too lazy to play such a boring game with this military envoy, and his gaze had already passed over the military envoy and fell on the strong man: "You just wanted to kill me?" ”
"Hmph." The powerhouse let out a cold snort.
He really doesn't look down on Sean at all, and the only ones who can make him look at him are the three golden powerhouses who can threaten him, but the golden powerhouses are all dignified and proud, and he doesn't think that a single baron can command these three golden powerhouses whose strength is not below him at all. In his opinion, this must have been the escort that Asuna had left behind to protect her little lover - it was now an open secret in aristocratic circles throughout the Duchy of Lane that Sean was Asuna's lover - as if he existed, the Finlistin family had asked him to protect the military envoy.
Therefore, in the heart of this proud golden powerhouse, he felt that it was necessary to report to the people of the Finlistin family after returning to the news that Asuna's strength had increased now.
"Rena, let him kneel for me." Sean's face smiled even more, and then he said something that shocked everyone present.
"You ......" The military envoy was dumbfounded, and when he reacted and wanted to say something, he just opened his mouth for a word, when he felt a strong wind whistling past him, and then there was a violent collision sound behind him.
The moment Sean finished speaking, Rena had already rushed out of the body like a tyrannosaurus.
As an armed knight, although her combat skills are relatively lacking, there are still few professions that can compare with her in terms of momentum alone, especially in this real world. The basic manifestation of aura skills is momentum. Therefore, Rena rushed forward with great momentum, relying on her own attribute value and the assistance of her aura skills, it was very easy to suppress the opponent of the same realm by temporarily increasing her strength and other attributes, so she had already knocked down the opponent's golden powerhouse directly with just one punch.
And he didn't expect Sean to be able to command Rena's golden powerhouse until he was punched down by Rena, and he immediately turned red and got up and swung a punch at Rena. In his opinion, it was already a great shame for him to kill the high-ranking silver on the spot, so he was suddenly beaten at this moment, where could he calm down, so the counterattack was naturally an inevitable result, and even in his opinion, if there was only Reina, he wouldn't need to worry about anything at all.
But what people didn't expect was that. He had just swung out this punch, and before he could hit Rena, Rena's body emitted a pale blue glow, and milky white mist flowed out of her body, and a transparent object in the shape of armor was already enveloping Rena's body. And when he punched it. The cold touch on the back of his fingers also made him immediately realize that this layer of transparent ice armor was by no means a trick.
The golden powerhouse didn't recognize what it was, but for the nobles and mercenary leaders who had been active in the previous battles. But they could tell at a glance what the transparent armor that was hanging over Rena at the moment was.
Ice armor from the Church of Ice and Winter!
Slight cracks. Ice armor all over Rena's body.
Sean's gaze froze: this golden powerhouse is obviously not weak, and he is also a class that is extremely good at melee combat. The role that this profession can play on the battlefield is naturally inferior to Rena's armed knights, but if it is in the current duel of strong men, then it is obviously Rena who will suffer.
And judging from the fact that this punch can knock out nearly fifty percent of the sustained effect of the Ice Armor Technique, the opponent definitely didn't have the slightest idea of keeping his hand in this punch just now.
"Neo." Sean knew that it was not easy to simply try to get Rena to solve the opponent. And he really didn't have the heart to continue to entangle with the other party like this, "There is no need to be merciful." ”
As soon as Sean's words came out, the air in the arena instantly became cold.
This was not an illusion, but a precursor before Shefanio's actual move.
And Sean doesn't have to show mercy to this. Naturally, I am not ready to leave a living mouth.
So this time, even Nolaine looked at Sean with a look of surprise, and his eyes were a little more puzzled.
In his opinion, Sean is not this kind of person who will be willful, but a lord who is more inclined to rely on means and resourcefulness to achieve his goals. Maybe this time the order of the military headquarters of the Principality of Lane is indeed a bit excessive, but something like this is just a game of political struggle, and the final result is that even if Sean loses the territory that he has worked so hard to fight, but once the whole army counterattacks after the end of the Northwest Theater, it is still possible to regain the lost territory, at most, Sean will suffer some losses in the distribution of the territory, and for Asuna's sake, in the end, there will be no too ugly appearance on the Duchy's side.
But now Sean's behavior is equivalent to a complete confrontation with the Finlistin family.
You must know that when they brought the supplies distributed by the military to support the Southern Theater of Operations, Sean had already made enemies with the Shabo family, who enjoyed the honor of "Lane's Sword", and now if he offends a Fenlistin family who also made great contributions when Lane founded the country, when the time comes, these two families will attack Sean together, I am afraid that even Asuna may not be able to keep him.
Because in the ranking of the twelve noble families, the Fenlistin family is ranked eighth, while the Sabo family is ranked fourth.
So, Nolaine couldn't understand what Sean was doing this for.
However, the fact that outsiders can't understand it doesn't mean that Sean's followers can't understand it - of course, not everyone can understand it, but for the vast majority of people, they don't need to understand it at all, and they can do whatever Sean says.
But at least, people like Hela, Neil, and William can understand the significance of Sean's behavior.
Because from the very beginning, Sean didn't even think about accepting orders from Ryan's military department!
Because Nolaine is accustomed to the kind of political strifes and sacrifices from the aristocracy and the powerful, many times for the sake of the so-called overall situation and the family, he can only choose to compromise constantly. Like the current matter, Nolane's first thought is what kind of trouble he will bring to the family if he refuses, and whether he and the family behind him can afford this kind of trouble. So from the outset he tacitly acquiesced in the compromise.
But Sean is different.
He went from nothing to the point where he is today, so there is no such word as compromise in Sean's dictionary. He may choose to make some concessions for the sake of the greater good, but concessions are never the same as compromise, and if there is no greater good as bait, even in the face of no hopeless despair, Sean will never choose to retreat, he will only open up a new path by himself.
If you want him to give up the family money that he has accumulated with great difficulty, Sean will never agree.
And since it is impossible to accept this order from the military department, it is equivalent to that he must take action today to leave this military envoy and all these people from the military department, so that he must need an excuse suitable for him to do it. And once you use this excuse to attack the other party. Then it is equivalent to offending the power represented by the other party, since the result is whether it is injuring and subduing the golden powerhouse or killing him, he will completely tear his face with the other party, then Sean must choose a way to weaken the opponent's strength as a result.
Therefore, killing is an inevitable result.
When the icy chill permeated the room, Shefanio stepped in.
She doesn't move much. The speed is not fast, but watching her movements, everyone has an illusion that they can't dodge. Maybe those who are a little weaker haven't felt it too much. But like Norien and the golden powerhouse who was fighting Rena. But he felt an extremely strong death crisis, as if he was targeted by Shefanio, it would be impossible to escape.
Seeing Shefanio walking towards him, the golden powerhouse immediately gave up continuing to attack Rena, and he knew that the other party was really murderous this time, so he changed his target. The golden powerhouse immediately roared, and a momentum like a fierce beast erupted from his body, breaking free from the lock of the qi from Xuefanio, and then the green tendons on his body exploded. The size of the whole person also increased suddenly, and he looked extraordinarily thick and muscular.
Then, without the slightest hesitation, he lunged at Shefanio, and with a wave of his hand, slammed into Shefanio's head.
In the face of this extremely strong punch in terms of momentum and speed, Shefanio did not dodge as embarrassed as everyone imagined.
Her body was as light as a butterfly, almost dodging the fist of the opponent's punch, and the strong wind blew Shephanian's long hair, but it didn't leave a single scratch on her face.
Then there was the faint sound of metal scraping—it was the sound of a sword unsheathed.
Then there was a faint silver light.
There was no blood splattering, and there were no particularly bloody and terrifying scenes, but the screams of this golden powerhouse suddenly sounded.
His entire arm was actually cut off by Shephanian's lightly slashed sword, and then fell to the ground, raising a white mist. The incision on his shoulder was as smooth as a mirror - it was really smooth as a mirror, because at the same time as cutting off this arm, the cold air had completely frozen the wound, not even a drop of blood fell to the ground, and the ice crystals condensed by the cold air could clearly reflect the scenery of the mirror like a mirror.
The fear of the crowd is even greater!
And Nolaine also saw Shephanian's shot for the first time, and at this time there was only one thought in his heart: so fast!
But in fact, is it really Shefanio who is faster than the other party?
Only the golden powerhouse who was fighting against Shephaneo head-on and Sean knew that it was not that Shefanio was fast, but that he himself was affected by Shefanio's cold air, which caused his thinking to be slow, so it directly affected his judgment and made his reflexes decrease.
To put it simply, he's slowing down.
At this moment, Sean knew that it was only a matter of time before Xuefanio became the next Sanctuary powerhouse, because her Ice and Snow Realm already had the rudiments of the rules, as long as she perfected and was able to use this advantage well, then the Ice and Snow Realm would transform into the Ice and Snow Realm, and at the same time, it would also be announced that Xuefanio had officially become a Sanctuary powerhouse.
The next moment, Shefanio waved the artifact in his hand again, Ice Rin, and then the cold aura condensed on the neck of this golden powerhouse.
With two swords of understatement, he killed a strong man at the peak of gold, Shephaño put his sword back into its sheath, and the cold in the room was swept away, and then she and Rena returned to Sean's back. Bannock, who was standing outside the door, did not come in, he immediately helped pick up the fallen soldiers and checked their injuries one by one, before turning his head to look at Sean and shaking his head slightly.
These poor soldiers weren't as lucky as Bannock, and they were all gutted by the other's moves.
"You...... How dare you ......" The military envoy didn't know if he was frightened by the tragic death of the strong people around him, or if he really didn't understand the state, he finally pointed at Sean like he was crazy, and opened his mouth and shouted, "You actually dare to kill the envoys of the Lane Military Department!" Are you trying to rebel? Law enforcement team, don't hurry up and take down this person who intends to rebel! …… You guys, why don't you come over and help? ”
The last sentence was shouted at Norlane and several other nobles.
It's just that after seeing Shefanio's power, how dare these nobles come up to trouble Sean? The fact that the viscount of the Shabo family was seriously injured by Sean is still clear to them.
"Take them all down for me!" Sean also shouted angrily, and there was a murderous surge in his eyes, but what was different from this military envoy was that he shouted at those nobles at the beginning, "Will the envoy of the Ryan military department break into the high-level secret meeting that is being held at will?" Will you kill my soldiers at will? I really didn't expect that Dabiang's spies were actually a group of guys with such a low IQ, do you think you can deceive me with such despicability? …… Why don't you take them down quickly? Are you also Dabiang's spies? ”
Nolaine's eyes suddenly froze, and his heart shook violently, he finally knew what Sean was fighting at this moment.
Vote for the name!
He tried to think of Sean's countless ways to crack it, even looking for Asuna's shelter, but in any case, he didn't expect that Sean's cracking method would be so simple and rude, directly accusing the other party of being a spy, and then forcing them to do it together! Noreen even bets that if they don't do it, Sean will do it to them, and the document to the military department at that time only needs to say that they died on the battlefield.
In an instant, several nobles looked at each other on the spot.
"You...... You are trying to rebel......" The military envoy panicked.
"You want to rebel? Betrayal of the Duchy of Lane? Compared with the panic of the military envoy, Sean was much calmer.
"Ugh." Sighing slightly, when Norlane raised his head again and looked into the eyes of the military envoy, he was already indifferent. (To be continued......)
PS: Hmm, okay...... I took a look, and the number of monthly tickets from the tenth is not very big...... So, brazenly begging for a monthly pass, begging to be pushed into ten!
