Chapter 2 Inexplicable Conflict
With thousands of elite warriors mobilized to escort them, and two strong men to follow the guards, the truly valuable goods escorted by this convoy were about to come out, and they could only be sacrifices.
Of course, it is impossible for all the wagons to be sacrificial, in fact, this is a regular convoy of goods from Mensa's territory to replenish the Minsa family's floating islands and various industries on Faust, and at the same time to transport the harvest of the major private planes to Faust.
One of the most important benefits of the plane is sacrifices, followed by various rare resources. Although there are also large-scale trading houses in other parts of the Holy Alliance, the Fuiyo-e has the most complete categories and the highest rank, and it is also the most convenient to trade. Moreover, for the floating island giants, Faust is equivalent to their common home turf, not only to maintain the prosperity of the place, but also to declare their strength.
A convoy of this size would arrive in Faust every quarter. The frequency and size of regular fleets are also one of the indicators of a family's strength. Wealthy families such as the Iron Duke and Fort Wellingham have a convoy arriving in Faust every month, and the scale is much larger than Mensa's.
Of course, there are also other giants, and when Gordon entered the floating island, only two cargo teams arrived in three years, which was also rumored to be a momentary conversation.
At this time, it has been a period of time since the Mensa family's floating island was bombarded from the sixth to the seventh floor by Richard with extremely strong means, and the main castle symbolized by the family has basically been repaired.
After all, Mensa is a family with a long accumulation and deep heritage, and at the beginning, the family did its best to restore the floating island within a month. It is not always true to say that it is repaired as before, after all, the woods and green spaces have to be made one size smaller, which can be regarded as a hard injury.
But at least now, it's not much talked about in high society. The center of attention of the nobles was naturally the emperor's majesty who shocked the entire human race some time ago, and then it was also his shocking move to fight against the two super powers. As long as you count the enemies that Philip faced in this super decisive battle, you know that even with the strength of His Majesty, it is already a miracle to be able to come back alive, not to mention that he also forced back the two super powerhouses of the other party, and even killed a legend?
Exactly how Philip's injury was was still a mystery to this day, but the fact that the mountain-like fat man can now eat and sleep is a victory in itself. Every time you see the Royal Guard carrying mountains of food, including dragon ribs, to the portal, you will feel unrelieved.
Ranking down, the nobles need to pay attention to the tragic bloody battle in the capital where the sun never sets, of course, their eyes will not sweep to the participants below the legend, at most look at the summary numbers on the first page of the battle report, only the families who sent personnel to the war at the last moment will care about the heavy content behind the war report.
The nobles did everything they could to find out why the Sword Saint Musashi suddenly entered the Land of Dusk, and why the Millennium Empire had to ask for help from the distant continent of Kalando, because there was more than one legend in the Empire, and the Emperor Garan himself was a legendary powerhouse.
And at the moment, the examination of Marshal Rundstead is in full swing, and several rounds of fierce debate have been carried out in the House of Lords, and the marshal has even been recalled from the distant land of twilight. Now, the forces of all parties are fighting repeatedly around this matter, and the Royal Court has postponed the scheduled court time again and again, and it is not known when it will be postponed.
There are so many topics that need attention, so that those nobles and noble ladies who take leisure and gossip as their duty are like blessed puppets of divine warfare, one by one they are extremely excited, and afternoon tea parties, dinners and even supper of various names are held one after another, allowing people to fully see their energy and body.
In such an atmosphere, the ugly things of the Mensa family have long been forgotten by people. This made the top and bottom of the Mensa family quietly breathe a sigh of relief, and the only thing that made them unpleasant was that Richard had been staying in the Desperate Battlefield and could not die. And the Holy Alliance has been at a disadvantage on the battlefield of the Peerless Realm during this time, and Richard is a figure on the list of royal conscriptions, so they can't and dare not make any artificial small moves at this moment.
The convoy soon approached the peak of the miracle, and the miraculous winding mountain road was already in sight.
In the distance, a team of brightly clad royal knights could be seen instigating war horses under their crotches and coming from afar with small steps. They were tasked with identifying convoys and inspecting cargo entering Faust, and since the recent Battle of the Sunset, the Holy Alliance's defenses had been strengthened throughout its powerhouses. However, in the eyes of the Mensa family, who have the status of a wealthy floating island, this is just a formality.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves and a faint laughter in the distance. Where the smoke and dust rise, a group of young men and women come on horseback, they chase and play, showing their youthful vitality.
The young men are trying their best to show off their riding skills and martial arts, while the girls are in full bloom like mountain flowers.
The group of young men came diagonally towards the convoy, and judging by the trajectory and speed of their ride, they would pass diagonally not far in front of the convoy. But in this way, it will inevitably affect the forward movement of the cargo fleet.
A knight at the front of the convoy shouted, "This is the Mensa family's convoy!
The knight's shouting was like thunder, and the rumble spread out, and many of the mounts of the boys and girls were frightened, and one by one stood up, and almost threw the rider on his back.
At this moment, these aristocratic young people all exploded, the young people were already young and vigorous, and they were even more in front of their favorite female companions, so they couldn't lose face no matter what.
Although this knight belongs to the Mensa family, his armor style is just the leader of the knight squad, that is, the Mensa family has always been arrogant and domineering, which makes a knight who may not even be a serious officer in the army sequence so arrogant.
There is such a thing as arrogance and arrogance, once there is such a thing, then the lower it is, the more obvious it is. If Duke Mensa is arrogant, then when he reaches the bottom of the small boss, he becomes very arrogant. Of course, the knights of the Mensa family are well-trained, and they are not arrogant even with long eyes.
The clothes of these young men and women looked like ordinary clothes at first glance, and although some of them could be seen as family crests, none of them were prominent enough to be remembered. Such a small aristocrat, usually when he meets Mensa, even if it is a cargo team, he should be polite to three points, and there will never be a situation of fighting.
But today one of the young men suddenly said in a loud voice: "Is Mensa so great? A knight dares to speak like this! Why should we give way, is it possible that the Eternal Plateau is the territory of the Mensa family!"
As soon as someone started, the boys' tempers were violent, and immediately some people echoed loudly, and they all rebuked Mensa for his rudeness. The group of young men and women gathered together, just in the way of the cargo team leading to the legendary peak.
The knight's face turned blue with anger, and he shouted angrily, "Do you dare to stop Mensa's regular cargo caravan?"
I don't know who said in a loud voice: "Who do I care who you are sitting on? No matter how powerful it is, why are the floating islands bombed down?"
The aristocratic young man burst into laughter again, and the knight was furious, choked, and drew his sword in his hand!
The aristocratic families were all martial, and immediately a young man was not convinced, and he also drew his sword, roared, and rode his horse towards the knight!
The Mensa knight sneered, and flew the sword in the young man's hand with a sword, and the horizontal sword swept and slapped him on the chest with the blade of the sword, directly slapping him off the horse.
This young man's martial arts skills were so ordinary, and after he landed, blood leaked from his mouth, and he couldn't get up for a while, obviously injured.
The knights who escorted the sacrifices were all elites drawn from the plane battlefield, which could be compared to these children of small nobles who had not seen much of the world.
However, the knight's sword completely angered those noble youths, and they drew their swords one after another, clamoring to fight to the death against the murderer.
They are not only hot-blooded, maybe the royal knights not far away are one of their supports, maybe the patrol knights who are coming from afar are also another support, anyway, under the peak of miracles, before the two teams of law enforcement knights, they expected that Mensa's guards would not dare to kill.
As for the consequences of offending Mensa, the strange thing is that these hot-blooded teenagers seem to have been ignored today.
The angry and hurtful knight also found it quite tricky, no matter how bold he was, he would not dare to kill in such a situation. Commoners are just commoners, but the other party is a real nobleman with a family coat of arms. No matter how small a nobleman is, it is also an aristocracy.
The caravan finally came to a complete halt, and out of the two carriages came a man and a woman, both in their early thirties, richly dressed, and with a cold and haughty expression.
The man in his gorgeous magic robe, seeing the chaotic scene in front of him, snorted coldly, and the whole person actually rose into the air, shouting, "I'm Jubilon Mensa! Get out of the way at once! Otherwise, I don't mind cleaning you up first, and then going to talk to your parents!"
The name of Jubilon Mensa does have a kind of power that makes the aristocratic boys suddenly look timid.
Jubilon was also a genius of the Mensa family back then, and he became a great mage in less than thirty, and it has been several years since then. The teenagers dared to argue in front of the knights, but in front of Jubilon it was a completely different matter.
The status of the Grand Magus is even higher than that of the Holy Domain of the same level, and the Grand Magister surnamed Mensa has all kinds of privileges. As long as he grasps the actual handle and stands firm, Zhu Bilong can even directly kill the children of these little nobles without any serious consequences. Just keep their heirs in line.
However, at this moment, a soft voice sounded among the teenagers and girls: "Jubilon, is this how you treat my friends?"
The voice was so familiar that Jubilone was taken aback and cried out, "Miss Wendy?"
