Chapter 645: A Strike in Despair

The knights in the room looked at each other and suddenly fell silent at the same time, and no one spoke.

Although the Knight Empire had kings and royal families, it actually implemented the internal system, which is the so-called roundtable meeting.

The senior officials gathered together to discuss the same thing, and finally made a decision, and the king made an announcement.

Originally, this system was very perfect and had helped the Knight Empire to go through thousands of years, but the system had never been shaken.

But everything changed until after the war two hundred years ago.

Some knights died in battle, and the new ones had no say at all.

Some were afraid of being beaten and even had the desire to surrender. The representative figure was that they were recently killed by their companions and had secretly started to contact the people of the United Empire and were preparing to become the gluttony knight of the inner demons.

Even the remaining knights are divided into two teams, dove and hawks.

The greed, rage, and jealous three knights that survived the last battle were not scared by the endless terrifying cards of the United Empire, so they chose to do their best to defend passively.

Therefore, when he heard that the old king wanted to provoke trouble, he tried his best to persuade him, and even refused to rebel and force him in disguise.

The three of them no longer want to fight against that terrifying enemy. They just want to defend the frontier and block the other party outside the door, protect their homes in this way, and that's all.

However, the hawks led by the war knights and the old king insisted on fighting back because they believed that only by fighting each other until they were in chaos and fearful could they survive.

The ultimate goal of both parties is actually the same, but the only difference is that they want to reach the end.

One party wants to bet, but the other party dares not bet. This is the fundamental contradiction between the two parties.

As the few people calmed down now, the Furious Knight who quickly recovered from his calmness suddenly spoke in a low voice.

"You want to put the life of the entire country on a person who is likely to die of old age at any time? Do you want to bet on the fate of the entire country?"

The arrogant knight opposite him shook his head slowly when he heard this.

"No, it's not bent on the Knights of War, but on the fact that as long as we attack and successfully win a city, it will lead to the loss of power in the United Empire's royal family. Other races will riot. Even if there is no Knights of War, even if we sacrifice our lives, we will conquer that city!"

"What if no one rioted afterwards?"

"It's just that they're fighting again. Even if we don't take the initiative to provoke, when the war knights die, do you think they won't fight? Anyway, the result is the same, so why not fight again in the end?"

“…………”

As the Proud Knight finished speaking, the scene fell into silence again.

Looking at the three greedy knights who were bowing their heads and falling into silence, the arrogant knight suddenly spoke.

"Please help us, three lords, this time we have to conquer that border city no matter what. Only by taking it down there! Only by letting the behemoth of the United Empire fall into chaos! In the midst of internal struggle! Only our Knight Empire can survive! Survive with our own will!"

The Greedy Knight, who was sitting opposite him, looked up silently when he heard this.

"Boy, that's a trap. It's a very obvious trap. The old, weak, sick and disabled are specially placed, and the border city without elite troops. This is the reason to deliberately attract us to attack in order to create a reason to attack openly."

"Of course I know that it is a trap, everyone knows it, but it is both a trap and an opportunity! As long as you hit it there, everything is fine! If it is a tiger hunting clip, then we will break one thigh on our own. If it is a chain, we will break one arm on our own. If one is not enough, feed it two! If two are not enough, put on the limbs! It will always be time to put on the trap! I don't believe in the lives of so many knights! The lives of so many masters! We will not be able to trample a city!"

He supported the table with both hands, and for the first time he looked at the same level of the same class opposite him in a condescending position. The arrogant knight gritted his teeth.

"When will you sit and wait for death? How long will you still be boiled by the other party's warm water? It is growing! It is getting stronger all the time! But we are slowly weakening and dying! If we continue to develop like this, when they really fight, do you think you can stop their cavalry! Since you have to fight every moment, why can't you fight in its nest? Do you still think that there are not enough innocent people who die in the war here?"

The roar that came into his ears made the three knights on the opposite side tremble clearly. After jealous knight lowered his head and was silent for a long time, he suddenly spoke in a very ugly duckling voice.

"What if they lose the fight? If they don't get lost because of this, they will concentrate their troops to fight? What should we do then? What should we do?"

“……………If that’s the case, it’s just death.”

"die?"

"Yes, we initiated the war, and we are the weak. If we can't even beat them like this, then surrender. After the prince ascended the throne, he opened the city to surrender, and the charges were borne by the old king. We can only die in the battle as the guardian knight of the Knight Empire."

As soon as the Proud Knight finished speaking, the lustful Knight sitting next to him nodded slightly.

"Being able to die in battle before the country is destroyed is also considered the last dignity that we knights can maintain. I think the Knight of War also thinks the same. He doesn't want to die in the hospital bed with despair, so he insists on fighting with the other party for this last battle. If he doesn't win, he can only die and die for the country as an imperial knight."

Hearing the words of the lustful knight, the three people on the opposite side were stunned, and the angry knight murmured.

"You have already agreed?"

This sentence did not receive any reply, and the people on the other side fell silent at this time.

The arrogant knight was straightening his back as usual, while the lustful guy was still repairing his nails boredly, while the lazy knight even lay on the chair with his hands shrinking and motionless.

But sometimes, silence itself is a kind of answer.

Looking at the three rebellious knights who bowed their heads silently, the famine knight sitting in the main seat suddenly spoke sincerely.

"Three, come back. The empire needs you and the people need you. Let us witness another glory of this empire, or the final ending."

The room fell into silent silence again. Looking at the palm handed by the famine knight, the corners of the angry knight's mouth trembled slightly, and he subconsciously stretched out his arm.

However, before she could completely hand it out, a loud bang suddenly came into everyone's ears.

The roof exploded, and a black shadow fell from the sky, hitting heavily on the ground.

As smoke and dust spread, three figures slowly stood up from the dust, and at the same time, a low voice sounded.

"I think it's better to think about this matter a little bit."
