MTL - War in Heaven-Chapter 1273 Lord's arrival
Hey? But I don't want to leave. ”
The young woman sitting in the wooden house eating breakfast, wearing a rumpled gray pajamas, short hair and messy in front of her, holding half of the apple in her hand, her eyes full of confusion:
"Where I left the Flamewind City, where can we go?"
"But we must hurry to leave!" The man who was packing up, had put on a light leather armor, tied the luggage that needed to be taken, and turned his head to look at the recurve bow in the corner of the room.
The young couple are local residents of Yanfeng City. But now, they have to leave their homes and go to other countries.
The news that the Lord was killed by the gangsters has spread throughout the flame city. With the death of the young master, many residents of Yanfeng City have also fallen into panic.
Even if the Lord is a waste wood, as long as he is still alive, he can bring shock to other nearby territories.
But now, the city of Flamewind has lost its ruler, and the state of this group of dragons will surely attract the attention of other nearby lords.
As the new lord is still not in the position, the nearby lords are likely to launch attacks directly. At that time, the Flamewind City will undoubtedly fall into the flames of war immediately.
"Hurry up, don't eat!"
The man walked to the wooden table with irritability, reached for his girlfriend's wrist, and violently dragged her off the table, and half of the apple in his mouth fell to the ground.
"It hurts..." The girl looked at him with wide eyes and dissatisfaction.
"If you don't leave, the enemy will fight!" the man said loudly.
"You think too much, General Qin is still there." The girl said with dissatisfaction: "The enemy does not dare to attack!"
"The lords are all dead, and General Qin is a fart!" The man said and increased his strength.
His plan was to escape to the Battle Mark City beside the Flame City. One of his distant relatives is on the other side of the Battle of the City, where he can arrange refuge.
As long as you hide there, slowly learn the language of the War Mark City, one day you can fit into the territory.
Although it is very uncomfortable to leave the hometown, it will at least survive...
When the two people in the room were arguing, they heard the voices of the neighbors on the streets outside the house:
"Is it heard? The new lord took office!"
"Ah? So fast?"
"It is said that at noon, I will go to the square in the center of the city. The new lord will give a speech. Don't you go and see?"
"If we have a new lord, we can feel at ease..."
When I heard the chat outside, the two people who were about to wriggle in the house stopped moving.
"Look, I said it's okay!" The girl whose wrist was smashed red, shouted angrily: "There is already a new lord, we don't have to leave home!"
"But I am still not at ease..." The young man bowed his head and looked at the wooden floor under his feet.
In fact, he is not willing to leave his hometown. The reason why he chose to leave is because of the situation.
However, even if he learned the news of the new lord, his self-respect as a "male" still made him hesitate a little:
"I still feel that I should leave."
"Let's go to the square to see it?" The girl stared at his eyes seriously, with sincerity in her eyes: "Let's see what the new lord looks like, and then decide whether or not to go, okay?"
In the face of his girlfriend's proposal, the young man thought for a while and finally nodded and put down the left hand luggage:
"Well, look at the new lord, what can you do?"
......
At noon, Lieyang hangs high in the middle of the sky, casting a glare of glare.
The circular large square in the center of Yanfeng City can be described as a crowd of people, and a large number of residents crowded the square.
The reason why they appear here is naturally to see the appearance of the new lord. For the new lord of the Flamewind City, the residents are still looking forward to it.
After all, even if you are incompetent, you should be more reliable than the "less master" who just took the lunch.
The last master, it is said that the lower limit of the ruler has arrived, and most of the residents in the city complained.
This huge plaza was originally built in a crater, just at the lowest elevation in the city of Flamewind, surrounded by a stepped building that makes it look like the ancient Roman Colosseum.
In the center of the circular plaza stands a high-rise platform that is also cylindrical. When the lords or officials announce major events, they usually debut here. When there is no major event, there will occasionally be well-known artists or actors performing here.
At this time, a large number of soldiers from the flames of the army had already surrounded the high platform in the center of the square, blocking the front of the masses, and by the way, opened a narrow passage at the front end of the steps behind the high platform.
The onlookers on the scene did not know that another part of the soldiers in the group were now helping the poor to open up the fields outside the city.
However, at this time, no one paid attention to the situation of the “Breath of the Rings of the Wind and the Wind City”. Everyone present was waiting for the debut of the new lord:
"Do you say that you will be a handsome prince?" A young girl standing behind the crowd said excitedly to her companion: "I might choose to marry me, don't compete with me!"
"Are you stupid?" The girl, next to the girl wearing a black hood, was full of undisguised disdain: "Is the last 'prince' not just dead? The old lord has other Descendants?"
"Oh, don't say this, we will be beheaded!" The girl who spoke before quickly hugged her companion's mouth.
Listening to the speechless dialogue behind him, standing in front of a bald middle-aged man, whispered to himself: "Should Qin General be enthroned?"
"I also support General Qin to take office." The stranger beside him nodded again and again: "General Qin can best inherit the tradition of the old lords."
"But it is unlikely? It will probably be the person who has blood relationship with the old lord." The man with a knife on his face slanted forward and commented: "The blood of the old lord will not be cut off."
"Let's see it..."
When everyone was talking about it, I saw a dark figure on the stage. The tall Qin general stood in the middle of the stage. In the crowd under the stage, there was a deafening cheer.
"be quiet!"
General Qin suddenly burst into a deafening roar, shocking the masses below, realizing that these people seemed to have misunderstood what, General Qin took a step back and said aloud:
"The new lord of the lord is about to arrive, and I will swear allegiance to the adult. From today, the people present will also be the people of that adult."
It was learned that the trust lord was not General Qin, and the onlookers present on the scene began to talk again:
"Isn't that the finance minister's fat pig?"
"No, that person will definitely become a tyrant..."
"I guess it should be the master of engineering, the man is quite handsome!"
"How do you still think about handsome guys? Don't make a fool of you?"
Listening to the noisy arguments, under the support of the members of the Guards, a man who used to be the "small master" of the Flamewind City walked slowly along the steps to the high platform.
Because the body is too short, Lin can't see the situation under the high platform. The onlookers below did not see the new lord. After standing in the center of Gaotai, Lin Chi said to Shen Wenchong, who was standing beside him: "Distribute it."
The members of the Guards immediately dispersed and gave up the position of the central station. The new ruler of Flamewind City finally appeared in front of everyone:
"A kid is another kid?"
Seeing the short figure standing on the high platform, the residents of Yanfeng City immediately recalled the fear of being dominated by "salty fish and less masters."
However, the child who debuted this time is completely different from the previous firewood, and it is more like a small military commander:
The lord wore a silver shackle, and the armor was full of scars. The red cloak behind it fluttered in the wind, and an ordinary short sword was hung around the waist.
The masses tried hard to see the look of the fresh lord, but the child had a heavy iron mask on his face, and his face was completely covered by a dark brown mask, revealing only a pair of clear eyes.
"This mask... seems to be a prisoner in the dungeon..." A bystander who had worked in the prison of the Flame City, muttered his eyes wide.
He used to be in the depths of the dungeon and met the death row with the same mask. It seems that only those prisoners who must hide their identity for special reasons will be wearing this helmet.
But how can the lord's face wear this kind of thing?
When he was still wondering, under the mask of the lord, a crisp juvenile sound had already sounded:
"Good dear, I am the new lord of Flamewind City."
Lin Chi lowered his head and looked around at the crowd of black pressure. Unsurprisingly, the crowd had sceptical expressions on their faces, and many people seemed to be very depressed.
It seems that the "small master" that he played, the damage caused to the residents of Yanfeng City is even more serious than he imagined.
However, that kind of thing is irrelevant.
Now that I am no longer the "dead" leader, I will start again and re-launch in a new identity!
"I know that you have doubts about me and think that I might not be a qualified ruler like the last lord."
Having said that, Lin Chiqing cleared the scorpion: "I can understand your mentality and will not defend yourself. After all, I am not very old, and there may be some shortcomings in many aspects."
"But, I will use my actions to win your trust. I promise that the entire Flamewind City will be completely new. I will revitalize this piece of declining territory, making Flamewind the richest on this continent." The most developed area."
"If I can't do this..." Lin Chi said, stepping forward and standing next to General Qin: "At that time, the general can directly replace my position."
As soon as this was said, the members of the Guards who were present were gazing at the figure of the Lord, and the crowds on the stage were all stunned.
In the face of the request of the "new lord", General Qin leaned over for a long while and showed his attitude in front of the lord:
"Please don't say this, the Flames will always obey the Lord."
"This is not a request, but an order." Lin Chi’s voice is low: "I will dedicate everything I have to this land until I will "retreate" forever."
His words are unusually simple, and there is absolutely no variety of flowers that are common to officials. But it still touched the masses under the stage.
Regardless of whether it is a play or not, the new lord will at least show his attitude to the residents, instead of keeping himself in the palace and ignoring the political affairs, letting the flame city continue to decline.
Seeing the attitude of the new lord, the residents who had some doubts before, the attitude has finally begun to change:
"Come on..."
"We are all watching!"
"It seems to be quite serious."
Listening to these comments, General Qin angered: "To maintain respect for the lord." But Lin Chi reached out and stood in front of the general, and said loudly:
"I am not the kind of lord who can't listen to any opinions. You can express your opinions casually. If there are more specific opinions, you can write a letter to the Flame Palace, I will read these proposals. ”
After the lord announced the new policy, the masses in the audience began to whisper. After they were quiet, Lin Chi spoke again:
“Maybe some people want to know why the lord wants to cover their faces? Now, I will tell you the answer.”
“First of all, I suspect that the city is lurking with assassins from other territories, and is preparing to assassinate the new lord when the flame city is in chaos. This mask is also for safety. But there is another reason. - Now, I don't think I am qualified to appear in front of you."
"I still don't know if I can become a competent lord, but I will do my best to make Flamewind re-emerge. As I said, if I can't do it, I will immediately abdicate and give the lord a position. Give Qin General."
"If I can make the city of Flamewind regain its glory, then I will take off this mask and let you see the true meaning of the 'great lord.' I believe that that day will come sooner or later."
After completing his speech, Lin Chi turned and walked down the high platform of the Flame Square, and the members of the Guards immediately followed.
Under the protection of the squad and the Guards, he left the Flame Square and drove the horse toward the Flame Palace.
"You are doing very well, the Lord is an adult."
General Qin, who was also in the horse, nodded with approval: "Your declaration makes everyone in the room convinced. I also believe that you will become a competent lord."
"Hah, don't tout me any more." Lin Chi smiled: "I just want to save the mistakes of the past."
"Now, you are not like the previous ‘Little Master’.” General Qin continued: “I want to ask, what happened to you?”
Hearing this, under the mask of Lin Chi, there was a sullen laugh again:
"Don't ask again, this is a secret."
