Chapter 81 The Way of the North(3/3)
What should we do?
The king would really go to any lengths and execute...
While everyone was thinking, King Nun finally spoke.
"evidence?"
The old king raised his head, opened his mouth and laughed.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Perfit was slightly startled, and the princes looked at him in confusion.
"When did I need evidence?" Nunn VII's tone slowly rose: "I only need reasons, I only need the truth."
Perfit exhaled from his nose and sneered.
"Humph, a typical tyrant, Nekaru will be ashamed of you," he squinted his eyes: "The bad habits of the empire have reappeared in you - maybe this is..."
"Nikaru?"
King Nun did not let him continue.
"When Nekaru Ax was dying," the old king squeezed his right fist and chuckled:
"His nephew and heir, later Nun Walton I, swore an oath to the heroes of mankind as his successor in front of his bed, witnessed by the Sky Queen."
"The last words in his oath later became Walton, the clan language of the Dragonlance family."
"Yes," under the gaze of everyone in the audience, Nun VII lowered his voice and said slowly and solemnly: "As a son of Northland, I travel the way of Northland, (son_of_northland,_way_of_northland)."
Grand Duke Perfitt was slightly startled, showing doubts.
"Since we are people from the North," King Nun clenched his fists and projected anger in his eyes, but suppressed his emotions and continued solemnly:
"You should follow the way of the North."
Everyone's expressions changed simultaneously.
Thales thought of a possibility and his face turned pale.
King Nun clapped his hands.
Two footsteps came slowly from outside the hall.
Everyone's eyes were attracted by the two new figures.
Thales saw the person coming clearly, frowned, and looked at Putilai.
Putilai narrowed his eyes and shook his head slightly at him.
Perfit stared blankly at the visitor.
"Come meet our dear intelligence chief," King Nunn raised his hand and introduced the newcomer:
"Mrs. Cassian."
Under Thales' solemn gaze, an old woman he had met before smiled gently and bowed slightly to the Grand Dukes.
The arrival of the owner of the darkroom, the Scarlet Witch, made the princes frown.
what does that mean?
Regardless of everyone's expressions, the king pointed to a woman wearing a silver-white robe, her face shrouded in a veil, and continued in a cold voice: "There is also the chief priest of the Bright Moon Temple, Jewel Home."
Thales was stunned.
He saw the mark on the other person's body: a pair of moons set together, a curved crescent moon and a full waxing moon.
The chief priest of Haoyue Temple?
Priest Holm didn't express anything, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.
But neither the princes nor the king showed any sullen expression, as if they should be that way.
This reminded Thales of the Sunset Temple in the Star Kingdom, the chief priest Li Xiya.
gods.
What role does it play in this world?
"What does this mean?" Perfit looked gloomy and stared at the king.
"What do you mean?" The old King Nuen sneered and slapped his palm on the long table: "His Excellency, the High Priest of Holm, is naturally here to witness... It is night now, and it is best for the goddess of the moon to witness."
Perfit seemed to have guessed something. The young Archduke felt his throat was dry and heard him hoarsely: "Witness...witness what?"
"Witness what?"
The old king showed an angry smile, and then turned to the prince of the stars: "Little Thales, take a good look..."
Thales was startled and came back from his thoughts.
Just listen to King Nuen saying calmly:
"The ancient rituals of the North are not something that can be proposed casually - it requires a sufficient number of witnesses, a sufficiently sacred ritual, and an arbiter of sufficient status to witness it in order to be effective."
An ancient ritual from the North?
Thales stared blankly at the old Nunn VII, and was extremely shocked for a moment.
No way?
Could it be that……
The looks of the princes and ministers were equally surprised, and many even had panic and panic in their eyes.
"Your Majesty?" A nobleman who looked like a political officer beside the king frowned and asked.
But Nun VII didn't give them any chance to ask.
The next moment, King Nuen vibrated his right palm and slapped it on the seat!
"boom!"
Everyone was shocked.
I saw Exeter, an old king who was nearly seventy years old, suddenly stood up, his face full of hatred and murderous intent, and with a thunderous old voice, he uttered the following words:
"I, Nun Nekaru Kadion Walton, am the seventh Nun in the genealogy of kings.
The king of dragonriders and hero Nekaru, the successor of hero Sarah.
The co-leader of the Northerners in the Western Continent and the vigilante of the glacier defense line.
Defender of mankind in the north, conqueror of the White Mountains.
The arbiter of the Golden Corridor and the conqueror of Broken Dragon Fortress.
The thirty-fifth joint king of the Kingdom of Exeter and the Quegur Glacier, the Grand Duke of Longxiao City."
"Under the witness of the spokesperson of the goddess Haoyue, in the imperial meeting, in the presence of the Grand Duke Weilanling, the Grand Duke Zaizhuota, the Grand Duke Qiyuan City, the Grand Duke Jieshou City, and the only royal heir of the Kingdom of Stars;"
Thales stared blankly at the king's actions, at a loss.
Also shocked were the Grand Dukes, including Perfit himself.
The king continued to speak, with chilling anger and pain:
"For my son, the last heir of the Walton family and Longxiao City, Moral Bertram Nunn Walton, and for the despicable assassination he suffered."
"In the glorious tradition of the North, in the name of blood revenge."
"To you, Conkley Perfitt of Beacon City..."
"Issuing a sacred challenge to a duel."
The old king spoke firmly, looked at the stunned young grand duke, and uttered the last words:
"The duel is called in the name of the king."
