Rogero, who was wearing a cloth robe, was also quietly looking at the ceiling with simple patterns; and slowly thinking and recalling what happened during this period after returning to China.
At least after everything he had encountered; he was already mentally prepared to undergo repeated scrutiny and long-term confinement.
Therefore, he did not expect that the senior officials of the Knights and the ministers of the Holy Kingdom would believe what he saw and heard.
Despite this, he had just been released and received incredible courtesy and preferential treatment; especially those nobles and high knights from Aquitaine.
An almost endless stream of people came to visit him, bringing various gifts and making various conditions and promises; there were even several heads of regional knights who tried to win over him, a Castilian, to their side. Serve as a deputy, military judge, chief coach, etc.
Of course Rogero knew why. Because as one of the three core territories of the Holy Royal Family, the Principality of Aquitaine, inherited from the family of Saint Laurent's spouse, has long been lower than Britannia, Saint Laurent's hometown, and Catalonia, the base of Saint Laurent's rise. One end.
Therefore, when the local armed and military factions of Aquitaine, led by the Knights of Enoli, broke up the Holy Kingdom
The general policy of "limited intervention and protection of the crown"; but the rash armed intervention, the southwestern part of the Sealand Kingdom was in chaos, and even suffered a disastrous defeat.
Naturally and inevitably, it caused a shock from the upper echelons of the Holy Kingdom's ruling class. Because in the hundreds of years since the establishment of the Holy Kingdom, due to the temporary rise and fall of the country's power and the threat of the rise of powerful enemies, there are only a dozen or so knights that have been destroyed in foreign wars.
The most recent major defeat was in the Chivalry War in the 1940s. As a result, in this partial intervention of the Sealand Kingdom in the war, a regional general regiment, multiple regional knight divisions and sub-groups, and hundreds of glory knights were easily lost.
This also gave some powerful people and factions in power in the Holy Royal Court to further promote investigation and liquidation. The aristocracy in the Aquitaine region and many knights with interests formed political factions, acted without authorization and defeated foreign troops. Guilt, stripping away more local rights.
Therefore, the key to a certain political struggle situation invisibly fell on Rogrigo, the only witness and witness who was released.
Therefore, on the one hand, he brought out his early mentors and witnesses, implying that he could truthfully report the defeat in detail.
"the truth". On the other hand, someone sent a message through his former fiancée, Simone, who was now newly married and became Countess of O'Dono's Court in the Principality of Lyon.
I hope he can take advantage of the kindness of the late His Majesty Sancho to preserve the relevant political factions. For this reason, the Grand Duchess of Urraca, who has a deep relationship with Aquitaine, can designate him as the teacher of the grand duke's heir/assistant knight; even if there were rifts and conflicts in the past that caused him to have a home in the south and be unable to return, the current Prince Alfonso VI of Catalonia also participated.
He secretly expressed that he could forgive Rodrigo's disrespectful offense, but he must make a contribution. Therefore, except for the Breton faction who is temporarily staying out of the matter, a political trend against the Aquitaine faction in the Holy Kingdom is brewing fiercely among the existing large and small political factions in the kingdom.
However, he was tired of all the political intrigues and just wanted to get rid of it all and return to the south as soon as possible.
Whether it's Valencia, Aragon, or even the royal court in Zaragoza; at least there is chaos where he can play to his heart's content.
Therefore, after one long and boring hearing and questioning session after another, Rogrigo finally couldn't help but explode.
He made an impassioned speech on the spot, accusing some powerful people of having abandoned the original intention of the Holy Kingdom and the chivalry of Saint Laurent: he also denounced some leaders of the Knights for their pursuit of power and interests; It has surpassed the oath and belief that originally formed the group.
Putting your own selfishness and greed above all classes and groups sworn to protect will lead to failure in a war that lacks justice.
Therefore, his speech also won the sympathetic echoes and applause of the many knights and small and medium-sized nobles present.
But in the end, when he tried to name the aliens that appeared in the Kingdom of Zealand, he was unexpectedly stopped and scolded on the spot.
As the most respected host and witness present, the Archbishop of Galicia from the ancient city of Santiago de Compostela, the resting place of St. James the Twelve Apostles; one of the pilgrimage sites second only to Jerusalem, announced on the spot that he The words are delusions and hallucinations.
Because according to the ancient oath, under the blessing of God and the glory of the Lord, it is absolutely impossible for those noble classes who share the rights and justice of the world to have a place for these evil spirits.
Therefore, it is more of a deception by those who come from a humble background; or it is a trick and trick of some people. Therefore, he was sentenced to go from the mansion where he was originally under house arrest to the underground of the Knights' headquarters; the oldest prayer room secretly opened by Christians who were persecuted by the Romans, to receive reflection and inner baptism.
This result made Rogrigo disappointed and doubtful. Because, at this moment, he is no longer sure; is this just a formulaic denial by the upper echelon of the Holy Kingdom to whitewash peace; or is it to cover up other taboos and existences that cannot be said?
This rare feeling of worrying about gains and losses and being suspicious made him feel very confused. Because, compared to the long discussion about the internal issues of the Holy Kingdom, the last words were what he really wanted to pursue and test.
However, the authority from the Archbishop of Galicia interrupted everything without hesitation; it also made his mind sink to the bottom.
All of this seemed to be revealed by the words of the leader of the Free Army before he left. Compared with the Free Army's resolute and decisive attitude towards killing those entities hiding in the darkness and making them public, the authorities and the Church of the Holy Kingdom are working hard to cover them up.
However, in the dead of night, when Rogrigo, who could not sleep, kept asking himself, and recalling bits and pieces of what he had seen and heard in the past, there were suddenly chaotic footsteps outside; There was a crash to the ground, and then the door opened.
Under the dim light of the wind lamp, several young and anxious faces were revealed. They were young knights who had served as Rogrigo's apprentice and retinue in the Holy Thorn Knights Academy. They were also members of a radical reformist association in the Holy Kingdom. They shouted hurriedly: "Lord Diaz, Is it you?"
"Senior Rogrigo, we are here to release you."
"Did you know? The Archbishop of Galicia has officially initiated a motion to exile you overseas to Novaya Zemlya."
"Several grand captains and inspectors have already agreed and stamped their seals. The only thing left is the opinion of the local lord, His Majesty Alfonso." However, Rogrigo couldn't help but sighed heavily again. He breathed a sigh of relief; but the leader of the Free Army told him the next change in the situation... Soon after, a dozen figures shrouded in cloaks flew out of the ancient Colosseum and scattered around. In the streets.
And standing on the only remaining terrace high above the Colosseum. The Grand Master of the Knights of Barcelona, who had thick limbs and a stocky appearance, stood side by side with Ordonez, the count of Madrid and the chief palace guard, who was wearing a rich uniform. They were watching this scene silently. It was not until everyone disappeared that the Grand Master spoke: "Why? Why, His Majesty Alfonso is willing to help such a rebellious minister."
"Your Majesty just feels that exiling him to the Novaya Zemlya overseas will not completely solve the problem." However, Ordonez, the palace guard chief, who was dressed in brocade and white collar, could not hide the red scar on his face. He opened his mouth and sneered: "What's more, with him here, all parties have shown too much restraint."...I am the dividing line for scene switching...and I am in the Domu Mountains of the Kingdom of Zealand.
As the moon sets in the west, most of the battles in the large secret settlement of the old nobles in the cliff castle have ended.
Even though new black-armored knights appeared on horseback and armed with no heads, it still could not prevent their destruction.
In fact, ever since this black knight, riding a ferocious bone-armored war horse and wielding a long and a short weapon, appeared in the flames, he was unsurprisingly targeted and attacked; he was approached head-on. The revolving hand cannon and thrown explosives were repelled and knocked over in the fire field... When it screamed lowly again, emitting a dizzying fierce sound wave; and when it jumped out of the burning fire field again The part of the black bone armor and stomach that was exploded and shattered on his body has been restored to its original state, and the weapon in his hand has become a moon-blade axe.
However, the next moment, several black shadows were thrown out from a distance, roaring and slamming into the black headless horseman; they were stone spirits with human bodies and animal heads.
Although he was easily dodged by the Headless Horseman, he did not hesitate to grab the horse's leg. Under the weapons wielded by the black knight, with sparks flying and clattering, and a heart-wrenching clang, these stone spirits with human bodies and animal heads were suddenly knocked back several steps by the shattering of debris; but they were also pushed back several steps; He tore off three black horse legs with bone armor and threw the black knight to the ground... I don't know how long it took.
As a heritage knight who led the siege team ignored the cratered and severely deformed plate armor, he once again swung his hammer desperately to knock down the headless knight with black armor and black horse to the ground; the smoking black horse that lost its ride also suddenly lost its spirituality. Became sluggish and stiff.
