Lord of the North

Chapter 355: Who will be judged?

The inside of the box was actually the heads of her confidants, and most of the blood hadn't drained yet, without exception, their faces still retained the expression of astonishment, as if they were a little unbelievable.

Cecil looked at Audrey, who was panicked and full of anger and hatred, with a smile on his face. The resentment that had accumulated in his heart for so long was finally expressed.

It's just a little regretful that he couldn't do anything to Audrey, otherwise it would be a sense of accomplishment to conquer an aristocratic lady who is not low in status.

Although the title of Baron Donte is not high, his actual status is not low, and his status in the province of Jelun can be said to be second only to the Earl of Ica.

And the reason why this Count Ica’s status cannot be shaken is because he is not comparable to people like Atum and Bron. Count Ica’s family once established for this country when the Kingdom of Lopez was founded. Irreplaceable credit, even loyal to the whole family at the time.

That's why he has the ability to establish a foothold in the province of Jelun for many years. Although he holds the military power, Baron Donte still dare not attack him and usurp the throne, and is willing to support him.

Because he knew very well that as long as the country was still surnamed Lopez, the status of Earl Ica would be unshakable. Even if Jason breaks the province of Jelen, in their opinion, Jason will definitely not attack Earl Ica. .

It depends on the contribution his ancestors made to the Kingdom of Lopez.

"Miss Audrey, now I invite you to go back to your room and take a good rest. The next battle with Atum will be handed over to me." Looking at Audrey, she was trembling with anger.

"You dare to kill a colleague, Cecil, aren't you afraid of His Royal Highness Phil's trial?" Audrey finally recovered from her anger when she heard that, she clasped her hands tightly, her eyes spitting fire. Gritted his teeth and shouted.

"what!"

Cecil laughed blankly, and suddenly felt that this girl film was innocent and terrifying. He slowly reduced his smile, looked at her coldly and said: "I am the highest officer of the Barea Pass, the highest official of your Highness's canonization. , Do you think if you tell your Highness the cause and effect of the matter, how will he judge it?"

He smiled nonchalantly: "Is it to judge you, or to judge your father, or me?"

Sweat beads gradually appeared on Audrey's forehead, and she finally figured out her situation, perhaps when Baron Donte decided to take Cecil upside down, they had already been doomed.

However, there are still a small number of people who can be as crazy as Cecil. The average person who is emptied of rights usually chooses to protect himself, and the person like him who chooses to take back the rights after crazy revenge says that he has never met. pass.

"Send you adults back to rest. They can't leave their house without my order."

This is blatantly putting them under house arrest, no, it should be said that they are imprisoned.

"General Cecil, you will definitely regret today's decision." Compared to Audrey's pale face when she left, General Bink looked much calmer. He still passed by Cecil's side. Stopped his footsteps, glanced at him coldly and said.

He wasn't alarmist either. The generals that Cecil killed were not ordinary generals, let alone Baron Dongte's men. They just supported Baron Dongte.

Most of these people were family generals of nearby nobles, and even people sent by Earl Ica, but now they are all dead in Cecil's hands.

Maybe they didn't take care of this matter, and His Royal Highness Phil was even less likely to punish him for this, but when the war was over, this would not be the case if Cecil was still in the north.

His behavior has offended most of the aristocratic group in Jelun Province, and he is bound to endure their revenge in the future.

"Then General Laubink won't worry about it." Cecil took his steps, brushed past him, and sat in the same position where Audrey was sitting before, as if he was not worried.

"General, what should we do next?"

When Audrey and others were taken away, a man who looked like a senior general in dress came to Cecil's side, and he asked with some worry.

"Why, are you scared?"

Cecil Cong held a glass of wine on the table. He was yearning for the luxurious life of these nobles, and he would even prepare fine wines when meetings were held.

"No, General, I just..."

The general immediately explained nervously that these people who were once under Atum feared Cecil more than Atum, because he was too vicious, so he couldn't speak when he saw Cecil's eyes. NS.

Because he really retired.

"Fear is an emotion that everyone has. You have it, and I have it. In fact, I want to leave this city and escape far, but we have no other choice now. If we lose, it means we are finished."

Cecil finished speaking and drank the wine in his hand with a gloomy expression.

"Divide all the soldiers into a team every two thousand people~lightnovelpub.net~ garrison the wall alternately day and night. Don't give the enemy a chance to attack the wall of the fortress, and send a team of one hundred men to watch the secret road left by Atum. To prevent them from digging through it again."

The existence of the secret path has always been a heart disease of Cecil. Although he has destroyed the passage, he still feels a little uneasy.

He kept his treasure there and sent troops to garrison because of this.

"Also send someone to keep an eye on their movements, even if only one scout team has left their barracks, they will report to me."

It can be seen from his orders that he is very afraid of Atum's ability.

General: "Yes, my lord."

"Atum, the decisive battle is here, I want to settle the new and old accounts with you!" When the people around had retreated, Cecil stayed here to drink wine by himself, his eyes were cold and his weapons were sharp.

This is also one of the reasons why he insists on regaining power from Audrey. He wants to wash away his shame, and the most effective way is to defeat Atum with his own hands.

………………………………………………

At this time, Atum was also expressionless outside the city wall, observing the Baria Pass in front of the barracks, this fortress that was strengthened a little by his own attention.

Yes, he ordered the reinforcement of this fortress more than ten years ago. In the past, it was just a dilapidated camp with a wall of two or three meters and more than a dozen houses.

"Before the Sun's birthday tomorrow, order the army to launch the first offensive." After a long time, Atum turned back to the barracks and issued his offensive order.

"If it's not dawn, our Black God Ballista may not be able to exert its maximum effect." A general from the iron tooth collar came to him and reminded softly.
