Reims City has a new city lord.
This was something no one expected.
The new city lord and his escort suddenly appeared in front of the city hall one morning, and then read out the appointment letter of the city lord issued by the parliament.
After the city hall confirmed that the appointment letter was correct, the newly appointed city lord took his motorcade and headed towards the Lord's Mansion in a swaggering manner, preparing to move into the Lord's Mansion.
There is a new lord in the city of Reims. Knock in the Cathedral of Reims already knew about it.
After all, such a large team wanted to enter the city, and they couldn't hide it from the Knights of the Gale Demon Wolf guarding the city gate, let alone the [Ye Sha] all over the city.
Just when the new city lord took office in the city hall, there was such a scene in Knock's office in Reims Cathedral.
"Behead first and then tell. This is to catch us off guard in case we get killed on the way again."
Nok looked through the information sent by [Ye Sha] with a strange expression on his face.
He leaned on the back of the chair and said with a playful smile: "Hey, the new city lord is still an old acquaintance."
Nok knocked on the table twice, and then said to Milady beside him:
"An old acquaintance is here. As a landowner, I have to go and welcome him, otherwise it would be too rude. Milady, please go and inform all the nobles and wealthy businessmen in Reims City. They will all arrive within half an hour. Gather at the Lord’s Mansion, otherwise you will bear the consequences.”
Milady followed the order and left.
Nok looked at Pamela next to him again, "Pamela, ask the people in the kitchen to bring all the ingredients and go to the Lord's Mansion. I need them to create the dishes for a banquet within an hour. "
Pamela also left in a hurry.
Nok looked at the empty office and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
There is still a shortage of people, even sending messages requires Milady to personally do it.
As for Lena and Hope, one is patrolling the city defense and the other is training outside the city.
After being imprisoned for two or three months, the bones of the Shadow Knights were almost rusty. Hope took them out of the city for training a few days ago.
As a result, Nock can't find anyone around him to handle chores.
Nock thought to himself that it was necessary to find a secretary for himself, and the cathedral's steward also needed one.
It seems like people are needed everywhere!
Nok had already begun to think about whether, after dealing with the new city lord, he should repeat his old tricks and get a few talents from the nobles to use.
No one was using it, so Nok had no choice but to get up and go to the scene to make arrangements himself.
So, when the new lord left the city hall and arrived at the door of the lord's mansion, he saw such a scene.
There was a lot of traffic outside the Lord's Mansion, and people were constantly coming in and out.
It seems that the Lord's Mansion is very lively today.
"Go find out what's going on? Why are there so many people coming in and out of my mansion!"
The new city lord was very angry and called the guard and asked him to inquire about the situation at hand.
Soon, the guard came back and reported that Bishop Lane was holding a banquet inside to entertain his guests.
How unreasonable!
The new lord was furious. Nook Ryan dared to humiliate him like this and hold a banquet in his new mansion without his consent!
"Come here, let me, the city lord, blow away all these people at the door! I, the city lord, want to see how Nook Lane is going to quibble!"
A chubby middle-aged nobleman trudged down from the carriage, revealing his mottled temples and old face.
Ten years have passed, and this old acquaintance of Knock has become older.
When the guards brought by the new city lord heard the order, they immediately and arrogantly rushed forward to drive away the carriages and guests at the entrance of the lord's mansion.
For a moment, there was commotion and abuse outside the lord's mansion.
However, as a group of people rushed out of the lord's mansion, the guards of the city lord who were driving away the people were knocked to the ground and arrested.
"Bold! Who are you! How dare you attack the guards of this city lord! Do you want to rebel?"
The new city lord angrily pushed away the attendants beside him, strode to the door of the lord's mansion, and loudly scolded the guards who were arresting people.
Unfortunately, except for his men who were frantically shouting for help, no one at the door paid any attention to him.
No one responded to him, whether it was the guards coming out of the lord's mansion or the people standing at the door watching the excitement, they just looked at his funny performance there with cold eyes.
"Be brave, I am your city lord! If you dare to ignore me, believe it or not, I will kill you!"
The fat city lord pulled out the sword of the attendant next to him, and just as he was about to strike at the guard who was tying someone up in front of him, he felt his vision blurred, and a sharp sword with a cold light was placed on his neck.
"Damn fat man, be honest! If you move around again, be careful of your head moving!"
Feeling the cold blade on his neck, the fat city lord shivered with fear, but he still shouted adamantly: "You are so brave! I am your new city lord, and I order you to put down the sword!"
The man who held the fat city lord hostage did not move or speak. He just stood beside the fat lord silently, with the sword in his hand firmly placed beside the fat city lord's neck.
At this moment, a group of people came out of the lord's mansion noisily.
The first person wearing a black divine robe is Nok Lane.
Surrounding Nok were a group of nobles who bowed their heads and had flattering faces. Behind them were a large group of wealthy businessmen with names from Reims City.
"Oh, why is it so lively!"
Before the Nok people arrived, the sound came first.
"The bishop is entertaining elites from all walks of life in Reims City and discussing how to hold this year's Divine Grace Festival in Reims City. Why did I hear that someone was making trouble and disturbing my guests!
Let this bishop see who is so unwilling to give us the face of Reims City and wants to cause trouble for us! "
Nok's words directly put the Fat City Lord on the opposite side of everyone in Lance City.
The fat city lord saw Nok's familiar face and immediately shouted arrogantly.
"Nock Lane, you are so brave, you actually dare to send someone to assassinate the city lord in public, what crime do you deserve! Let me go immediately, and then apologize to me properly, maybe I can forgive you!"
Nok knew that the villain was successful, but he didn't know that after the villain succeeded, he actually dared to be so rampant.
"Oh, it's been so many years since I heard someone call me by name and scold me in front of me. I really miss it!"
Nok teased the people around him with a smile on his face, not caring at all about the fat city lord's insults.
"However, our position as Lord of Lance City has been vacant for so many years, and today someone finally took over. It's great! You guys think so, don't you think so?"
Faced with Nok's deliberate performance, the people around him quickly started to perform in cooperation.
"Quick, quick, let's welcome our new city lord together. I didn't expect that the new city lord wanted to visit all of us as soon as he took office. He is so approachable!"
Nok spoke with sincerity and fear all the way, but there was a sneer on his face that couldn't go away.
"Ouch, what are you doing? Then who, who asked you to put the sword on the Lord's neck? Do you think these are the bandits outside the city? They are all big and small, why don't you put your sword away!"
Nok made an exaggerated performance, and the man who held the fat city lord hostage took back the sword in his hand with twitching lips, then turned around and left.
There is no other way. If he doesn't leave, he will be worried about his laughter!
Sister Reina only told him to play an emotionless guard and cooperate with the bishop in acting.
I didn’t tell him that the bishop’s acting skills were so exaggerated!
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Lord City Lord... Eh? Victor, why is it you? Where is our Lord City Lord? Didn't I say that the new City Lord is here? Where are the people?"
Nok wanted to apologize sincerely, but in the middle of the sentence, he seemed to realize something was wrong and changed the subject.
However, his words almost prevented Jim Victor from ascending to heaven.
"Noak Lane! I am the new city lord!" Victor roared through gritted teeth.
Nok blinked innocently, and suddenly laughed as if he heard some joke.
While laughing, he reached out and patted Victor on the shoulder: "Hahaha, brother Victor, you are so funny. Although I don't know why you want to make me happy, you can't do anything about pretending to be the city lord, you will be killed. Head."
Victor looked at Nook Lane who was pretending to be crazy and stupid, and wanted to peel him off, but he had to defend himself: "I am real! No need to pretend!"
Nok said in surprise: "Ah? No way! It turns out you weren't joking! I didn't expect you to become the city lord. Sorry, sorry, I was so surprised, I thought you were joking. I'm really rude, I apologize. "
"Pfft~" Someone in the crowd couldn't stand Nok teasing Victor like this anymore, and couldn't help laughing.
Victor's face was ashen, looking at Nok with a joking expression in front of him, he gritted his teeth and rushed to get up.
He pointed to the street with his hand and shouted to Nok:
"Nock Lane, have you had enough fun? If you have enough fun, take your people and get out of the city lord's mansion!"
Nok hurriedly took a few steps back, picked his ears with his little finger, and asked with a surprised look on his face:
"Wait, my dear Lord Victor, what did you just say?"
Victor pointed at the Lord's Mansion behind Nok, and then pointed at the street in front of the door.
"I said, take your people and get out of my mansion!"
Victor's words changed the expressions of the nobles and wealthy businessmen present.
What do you mean, are you trying to drive them away?
This is Reims City! Their territory!
Even the all-powerful Bishop Nock Lane didn't dare to yell at them like this. This damn fat man actually wanted to drive them away in public?
When Nok heard this, a sneer rose in his heart, but the expression on his face turned cold.
"Wait a minute, Lord Victor, you mean your mansion? I'm sorry, can you tell me more clearly, where is your mansion?"
"Don't pretend to be crazy like me! Behind you is my city lord's palace!"
Victor pointed arrogantly at the castle behind Nok.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience was slightly startled, and then burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! Everyone, listen to what he said!"
"Hey, after all this fuss, our new city lord is a fool!"
"It's so funny. He couldn't have just come to take office without any investigation, right?"
"This guy's surname is Victor. He must be from the Victor family in the royal city, right? It's such an embarrassment to the Victor family!"
Even though Nok had guessed the other party's reaction, he was still amused by Victor's confidence.
"Hahaha!"
Nok laughed heartily and pointed at Victor with his right hand while laughing.
"I said Lord Victor, are you confused? Behind me is the Lord's Mansion! The private castle of the former Lord's Julien family.
Before the previous lord went to the royal city to be ennobled, he mortgaged it to our Reims Cathedral.
Later, Lord Angeladi Julien was killed on the way to the royal city and failed to redeem the Lord's Mansion in time.
Therefore, according to the contract, the Lord's Palace has been the private property of our Reims Cathedral six years ago.
Everyone in Lance City knows this.
Why did you say that this Lord's Mansion is yours as soon as you took office today?
Even if you want to invade other people's private property, you can't do it so blatantly!
Today is your first day in office!
If you want the City Lord's Mansion, then go find your City Lord's Mansion in the west of the city!
This is the Lord's Mansion, and it is also the knight training base of my Reims Cathedral.
Not everyone can invade it at will! "
Nok "explained" loudly, completely ignoring Victor who turned pale, and continued to speak loudly:
“By the way, now that the Lord of the City has taken office, the defense of the city wall of Lance City will be left to the Lord of the City.
You'd better send troops to take over the defense quickly. It’s time for me from Reims Cathedral to withdraw as well! "
