Chapter 1197, spanning a thousand years, the handshake of the king of knights and the king of knights
Only two magic lamps were lit in the dark room, reflecting Ryan's somewhat haggard face.
Primrose has been deduced many times. He used his prophetic ability to reason again and again, trying to deduce how to avoid a bloody conflict. However, no matter how he chooses, the final bloody suppression is inevitable. The best result is to start a massacre in Curona and openly execute more than 100 kingdom knights and hundreds of knight families.
This doesn't work. It's not that Ryan is not prepared to do this, but that he feels it's not good to do this.
This made Ryan very upset. He discussed with Sulia and others for a long time, and there was no better way.
So Ryan asked to keep himself quiet for a while.
Now, the green light was shrouded in the room, a demigod, the patron saint of the Knight Kingdom, and the embodiment of the knight's virtues. The Green Knight walked into the room from the door, and his whole body was shrouded by illusion light. He was in the light and Ryan was in the dark. The dazzling green light made Ryan subconsciously frown. When the Sun King saw the visitor, he quickly stood up. He reached out and lifted his belt up hard, directly to the position of his chest, then buttoned the velvet jacket and stood up: "Your Highness, Green Knight, I didn't expect you to come."
"Can't I come?" The Green Knight's body was shrouded in the fog and the branches of ivy. His eyes first stared at the belt that Ryan pulled to his chest, and then found that he seemed a little rude. So he let the thick fog wrapped around him dissipate: "I'm sorry to disturb you at this time, Ryan, but I asked your queen, and Sulia said that you can greet guests at any time."
"This is really weird enough." Ryan smiled, trying to make himself seem to be less troubled. The Sun King respects the Green Knight: "I just didn't expect you to appear at this time."
"I will show up because I should show up. For thousands of years, I have been defending this kingdom in my own way, my kingdom." The Green Knight gently removed his helmet.
It was a young, handsome but emotional face, his facial contour looked a little psychedelic under the green light, and he stared at Ryan: "So I'll see you."
"Please sit." Ryan reached out to signal the Green Knight to sit down. The Primroot looked at the brave demigod. The two demigods looked at each other, and neither spoke.
After being silent for about two minutes, the Green Knight said softly: "Gihard, Duke of Leonardo, spoke to me, and he swore in the name of Sirruf that if I am willing to support him, I will be the new faith of the Kingdom in the future."
"You know what that means." Ryan shook his head.
"Of course I know." The Green Knight said calmly: "But according to my existing news, Ryan, your supporters account for half, not to mention half of them, even 20% of them are barely enough. The day after tomorrow is the Kingdom Knights Conference. The outer courtyard will have 4,000 knights listening to your speech, and in the hall of the King's Council, there will be at least 800 great nobles sitting in the palace, ready to make their choice."
"Yes, you're right." Ryan stretched his voice and almost turned into a duck's voice: "His Majesty the Sun King will speak in the hall of parliament and express his continued support for the Lady of Lake. He is the God-Choose Champion of Lake Lady. He is still the nobles of Brittania. I also respect their choice."
"What then? Someone will stand up to resist your decision and ask you to abdicate, the Sun King." The Green Knight said coldly.
"Old Guards, Musilon Lengxi Guards, my Royal Legion is outside the city, and they have no problem with their loyalty to me. As for the city, the Kurona Army of Raun and the Holy Grail Knights of François are ready at any time." Ryan nodded: "There is no other way. This may be a large-scale bloody conflict, or even a fighting, but I cannot convince all the knights and nobles in the outer courtyard to be able to abandon all prejudices and continue to believe in an alien god, even if she brought Brittany's new life and redemption, even if she did nothing wrong, she was a little too generous to other gods."
"That guy Bethmond will enter the inner courtyard and listen to your speech. If your speech can impress him, then those neutral knights will support you." The Green Knight said softly.
"But there are 1,300 people." Ryan also said softly: "10,000 people are all knights."
The Green Knight stood up again, the demigod's voice was stern and full of questioning attitude: "What is the current situation of Estalia?"
"Torbaro, Magrit has fallen, and without our support, it's only a matter of time before Billy Barry." Ryan nodded.
"Tyriel?"
"Erinasa-Salt and her pirate army gathered in Satusha. If Lucini falls, then Satusha is the next one." Ryan said directly: "There are also border princes."
"empire?"
"The Empire is still gasping, and all the troops are concentrated on the northern border." Ryan also stood up. The Sun King was obviously one year taller than the Green Knight. He walked to the Green Knight: "The only suspense is how long they can last."
"So that's our move, Ryan?" The Green Knight looked straight: "Look at these stupid things, half of the old world has fallen, and they're still busy fighting for power."
"Isn't it always like this? Human?" Ryan said indifferently: "The more we reach the end, the more we are anxious to divide the cake and grab resources."
"It was like this until the lady gave us higher goals and higher pursuits, a brand new kingdom, a united kingdom, a unified kingdom!" The Green Knight's voice became louder, and he turned his head to look at Ryan: "Tell me, Sun King, are you scared?"
"The day after tomorrow? Of course not."
"I mean Echarn and his destructive army."
"Then I want to say, I'm so scared, especially when I heard that a primordial demon prince brought the three-headed demon to ask for my head."
"Hahaha~" The Green Knight finally smiled, and a little smile appeared on his handsome dead man's face. He gestured to Ryan to sit down, and then said in a slight voice: "I'll deal with the knights."
"My Highness?" Ryan was stunned, and he looked at the Green Knight with an incredible gaze.
"I said, you are responsible for dealing with the great nobles in the inner courtyard, and I are coming to deal with all the kingdom knights in the outer courtyard." The Green Knight sat beside Ryan, and he said lightly: "In this country, no knight nobles dare to question my decision, any, because I am the source of all knights' rule! You have my absolute support, Ryan, the Sun King, and the thirteenth Knight King after me."
A kind of indescribable filling Ryan's heart, the Sun King opened his mouth, and the Green Knight interrupted him directly: "Would you like to listen to me first?"
"I admit that I, like most of the knights in the Kingdom, look down on you at first. Although the lady has emphasized your specialness many times, I still have some reservations about you." The Green Knight said lightly: "This is why I rarely appear to fight side by side with you after you came to the Kingdom."
Ryan was silent.
"But I must admit, Ryan, you are better than me in many ways." The Green Knight shook his head repeatedly, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "You can always make friends more and make enemies less. Not to mention how you win over François, Boderick and Bethmund step by step in China, nor do you always make friends with the Empire. Just because you are particularly good at dealing with dwarves and elves, reconciling relationships and even forming coalitions, I am far inferior. I am good at leading troops to fight, marching and formations and championship duels, but I am not even well coordinated with Landuin and Schirluff."
"Under complex conditions and environments, we must recognize who is the friend, who can unite, who should win over, who should be isolated, and who the real enemy is." Ryan gave a brief answer.
"It has been a thousand years since its founding. I know more than anyone else where the chronic disease of the kingdom is, but I have no way. All I can do is repeat and emphasize morality and continue it with my own strength." The Green Knight ignored Ryan's words, and he continued: "I know that in this country, there are many people who are afraid of you, and there are many people who hate you, because you deprived them of their privileges and told them the fundamental reason for the emergence of the Knights - in order to defend our country and people, if the country is lost, the Knights have no meaning to exist."
"Hmm~" This is what Ryan believes, Ershi Erlu, and Minfei Gua.
"Everyone knows how difficult it is to deal with these guys. Only you can do it, only you can do it." The Green Knight continued: "Lian, I am talking to you as the first Dragon Slaying Knight in the founding country, the first Knight King, the first Holy Grail Knight in Britannia and all knights. Arthur is talking to you! I will announce to all the knight nobles in the outer courtyard the day after tomorrow that I will support your decision unconditionally!"
"I have obtained the consent of the lady. From now on, I will be your subordinate. I will serve you as the great mentor of the Holy Grail Knight and the chief paladin of Britania." The Green Knight whispered, his voice as solid as a rock and as firm as steel: "Let us join hands to overcome difficulties together."
"Ao!" Ryan also made an excited voice.
The two hands clasped each other tightly.
After a thousand years of time, two generations of knight kings have reached an agreement since then.
"In your more than ten years of governance, you have given me a lot of inspiration and inspiration, and now I will give you some advice." The Green Knight held Ryan's hand and lowered his voice: "In fact, we don't need to worry about the identity of a lady. Everyone is wrong at this point. The glory of Brittania was not given by anyone. Even if it was given by a lady, we have grasped it."
"You mean... to change all this?" Ryan thought.
"Internal conflicts, external resolution, elves, dwarves, empires, and so are us." The Green Knight sighed: "If there were no such a large invasion of green skin, there might not be Brittany today. Ryan, human beings are sometimes cowardly and sometimes despicable, but some things are always prompting human beings to continue to advance and enter new glory. This is a story of courage."
"I see!"
………I am the dividing line that spans thousands of years…………
Two days later, the Palace of the Curona, the Hall of the King's Parliament.
Except for Duke Hubald, all the dukes in Brittania were all here, and more than 800 nobles with real barons and above were sitting in the parliamentary hall, waiting for Ryan's speech.
His Majesty the king, here, will discuss and tell everyone about the national policies he has formulated, the future of the kingdom, and where the Knight Kingdom will go in a thousand years.
At nine o'clock on time, Ryan wore a Brittanian crown, a full king's gown, and a velvet satin king's cloak. He tied up his black hair and polished his leather shoes as new. In everyone's eyes, Ryan slowly walked into the parliament hall. On both sides of him were an old guard as a guard of honor, as well as two new gray knights, Betton and Fuxi.
The only thing that attracted attention was that Ryan pulled the belt high, almost reaching his chest, and the king's face was serious, and he walked slowly to his throne without sitting down.
"He looks a little nervous." Pelchmond sat in his own position, Duke of Red Dragon, Duke of Bastogne, Arthur's direct bloodline, and the First Marshal sat in his position.
All the neutral knights were the only one who was the Duke's leader. The neutral knights agreed that if Pelchmond nodded and agreed to Ryan, then they would support His Majesty Ryan's "Lady-Safe Sect". Otherwise, they would continue to be neutral and remain unmoved.
"In the face of this situation, it is inevitable to be nervous." Sitting behind Phemond was Karad. He spent this period of time in pain, but he was still strong because a series of suffering had already tempered his heart to be extremely firm.
On the other side, the new Duke of Le Angolang Campbell and Duke of Leonardo Girhard also sat together. Campbell whispered: "Have everything been arranged?"
"It's arranged, but not good." Jihad hesitated: "Let's listen first, what our Majesty is going to say to us."
"...What a pity." Campbell was quite hesitant about Ryan. The other party once magnanimously pardoned his father Tauber: "He is a very outstanding king, but he has not stood in his position. He is the representative of the knight nobles, not the representative of the mud legs."
The scene was a little noisy until the Chief Justice of the Kingdom hit the table with a hammer hard: "order! Oooooordeeeeeer!!"
"Now, please give your Majesty the King!"
Ryan walked down from the throne, walked to everyone, coughed twice, ready to speak, his voice would be heard by Veronica's speakers and the special echo wall in the hall of the King's Council.
Many people are preparing to listen to the king's speech.
The fairy in the lake hid in the dressing room behind the throne, where the goddess and the lake god witch sat.
The young prince, Baron Devin Hill, sat on the throne at the lower left of the throne, and he had a premonition that he might sit in this position for many years, many years.
Queen Sulia did not visit the scene in person. She was alone in the side hall of the Curona Palace, listening to the sound coming from the other side through a door.
More than 4,000 Kingdom Knights were crowded outside the hall, and every corridor was filled with people.
Only Theresa and Veronica were sitting in the position of the female courtier, one was frightened and the other was extremely excited.
Even in the subspace, a pale flower from the underworld came along the light and shadow, staying quietly in place, occasionally showing a few twisted laughter.
Everyone was in a hurry, but everyone was waiting.
Ryan's pronunciation is standard, but it sounds more or less with some of the imperial official aristocratic habits.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we are gathering here today to discuss the series of major events that have happened recently, and the issues about our faith."
More than 4,000 kingdom knights, countless high-ranking officials and nobles, and more than 800 great nobles with more than 800 barons of real power, held their breath and focused.
"For thousands of years, the faith in the ladies in the lake has supported us in Brittania, and now, she tells us that she is an elf god, like a fake elf god, she deceived us and lied to us, everyone, as you have heard and seen, this is true, I have personally confirmed to the goddess, this is true, I swear in the name of Ryan Marcado and the demigod, this is true," Ryan said loudly.
A sigh.
"So, one of the sharp questions we are facing right now is, what should we do now?"
