Chapter 56 The Lord's Plan
The Black Wolf King bit Hrov's arm, and his sharp teeth instantly crushed his bones, flesh, bones and tendons. Hrov let out a miserable howl as he desperately tried to pull his arm out.
, but the power of the Black Wolf King is so strong, coupled with the instinctive swing of the beast, the teeth are pulling on the arm like a chainsaw.
"Quickly, get him out." Bjorn immediately ordered.
The Viking warriors rushed forward. They banged their bucklers to intimidate the Black Wolf King. Some people threw benches at it. Others grabbed Hrov and used all their strength to finally pull him away.
He pulled it out of the wolf's mouth, and of course Hrov's left hand became the Black Wolf King's delicacy.
"Get out of the way." Gudmundel shouted, and he pushed away the crowd. He was holding an iron stick in his hand that was used to pull firewood from the iron tongs. The front end of the iron rod had already turned red. I saw that he had arrived.
Next to the fallen Hrov, an iron rod was placed on his severed limb.
"Ah~~~." There was a smell of burning flesh and Hrov's shrill cry. The blood flow from the wound finally stopped, but Hrov had already fainted from the pain.
"Oh~~." The Black Wolf King chewed up Hrov's hand and swallowed it, then raised his head and roared, as if to declare his victory.
"It seems that the gods are on Ulf's side this time." Iron-bone Bjorn shook his head helplessly, and he waved his hands to carry the unconscious Hrov down.
"So your Majesty believed what I said." Su Chen took the opportunity to ask Iron Bone Bjorn.
"Since you have passed the wolf test, I declare in the name of the King of Sweden that your accusation against Hrov is established." Ironbone Bjorn said to Suchen.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Su Chen nodded slightly. Now that Khrov has become a disabled person without hands, his authority in the East Hamar tribe will be greatly reduced. I don't know if he can become the new lord. If he can obtain the iron-bone ratio,
With Jon's support, he was sure of success, so he said to Bjorn, "Dear Your Majesty, East Hamar cannot allow a tainted person who is despised by the gods to continue to be the lord, and I am willing to become East Hamar's lord."
New lord, if Your Majesty supports me, I am willing to become Your Majesty's vassal and serve Your Majesty."
"Oh, you want to be my vassal?" Iron Bone Bjorn looked at Su Chen interestingly, feeling that this young man was very ambitious. After planning to get rid of Hrov, he actually asked himself to be the lord, but he
Now he is a little hesitant. Although he doesn't like Hrov, he is more wary of Su Chen.
"I am willing to serve your Majesty." Su Chen stood in front of Iron Bone Bjorn and swore to him.
"Your Majesty." When Gudmundel saw this scene, he immediately turned his back to everyone and kept winking at Iron Bone Bjorn. As long as Iron Bone Bjorn nodded, East Hamar became a part of Sweden, and
Isn’t a united Sweden exactly what Bjorn the Iron wants?
But the iron-bone Bjorn remained silent. He looked at Su Chen in front of him, deliberately ignoring the look in his spy leader's eyes, and was constantly struggling in his heart.
"No, Hrov has not lost his qualifications to become a lord. I will not intervene in the affairs of East Hamar. Of course, I will also admit your accusations against Hrov in accordance with my oath, and I will report to O
God Ding swears that you will be protected by me." Unexpectedly, Iron Bone Bjorn rejected Su Chen. He just reiterated his promise, which greatly exceeded Su Chen's expectations.
"Your Majesty, please think about it." Su Chen was surprised. Could it be that he was too impatient? Without the support of Iron Bone Bjorn, he would have faced Hrov's revenge after returning to East Hamar.
"No need, someone will take Hrov down and let us continue the banquet." Iron-bone Bjorn waved his hand and ignored Su Chen's request. The banquet continued, and Su Chen stood there awkwardly.
He furrowed his brows and was filled with anger. It seemed that he had no choice but to flee.
"What a pity! If you become a lord, maybe we can get along better." As the banquet continued, everyone was discussing the giant wolf trial just now, but Visbier sat opposite Su Chen.
He looked at Su Chen, who was drinking one glass after another, and couldn't help but smile.
"Hmph, Iron Bone Bjorn is nothing more than that. He will regret today's choice." Su Chen held the wine glass and said lightly. His voice was very soft, but he spoke every word, as if he wanted to make today's choice.
The failure is engraved in my bones.
"You are wrong. He values you very much, but he is the co-owner of Sweden. If he just accepts you as a vassal, it will send the wrong signal to others. Anyone who is ambitious can challenge his lord.
Wouldn't everything be in chaos? Bjorn would not make such a mistake." Perhaps Visbyar was trying to repay Su Chen for his kindness in crippled the abominable Hrov, so he patiently explained to Su Chen
road.
"So that's it. I didn't think carefully enough, but for me this is a fatal failure." Su Chen smiled bitterly. He originally thought that East Hamar would be enough to tempt Bjorn to agree to the terms, but he didn't expect this iron-clad man to agree to the terms.
Bjorn saw clearly the pros and cons, and his speculation failed completely.
"If you ask me, you're just a little bit off. Tsk tsk. This may be the will of the gods! By the way, when you return, take the beast in the cage back with you. I won't accept and eat such a beast.
The guy with the lord’s arm, not to mention that now everyone thinks it is the incarnation of the gods, I can’t peel off its fur.” Visbijjar shrugged and said to Suchen.
"I know." Su Chen poured the last glass of wine down his throat. He was thinking about whether he should go to the British Isles and find a job under the white-shirted Halfdan, or go south to Byzantium, where maybe there would be more development prospects.
.
At night, when everyone was drunk, people were scattered around the hall, and even Su Chen lay on the table and fell asleep, suddenly, he felt someone push his shoulder hard.
"Who is it?" Su Chen raised his head impatiently. He had missed the position of lord because of Bjorn's rejection. He was unhappy and said angrily, but when he raised his head,
But I saw Gudmundel.
"Get up, don't wake up others, come with me." Gudmundel whispered to Su Chen when he saw him waking up.
"Oh me?" Su Chen wondered why Gudmundel called him so late, but he still got up and stepped over the people lying on the ground, followed Gudmundel, and they walked through the side door and entered.
Corridor of the Palais Monceau.
"Hang~." When they came to the corridor, Gudmundel took off a torch hanging on the wall. Then they walked to a corner. Gudmundel pushed it gently with his hand and opened an inconspicuous door.
The small door appeared in front of them, and the winding stone steps came into view.
"Follow." Gudmundel turned to Su Chen and said, then he bent down and got in. Monk Su Chen was confused, but he still followed closely.
The weak light of the torch illuminated the steps at their feet. The two walked in the darkness for an unknown amount of time until they arrived at a house made of stone.
"What is this place?" Su Chen looked around in confusion. The place was eerie and terrifying, as if there were ghosts haunting the shadows at any time. However, Gudmundel did not answer. Instead, he turned around and left, not even leaving a torch for him.
, Su Chen wanted to chase after him anxiously.
"Don't be afraid, this is the tomb of my ancestors." Suddenly, the light rose, and the voice of Iron Bone Bjorn came. He lit an iron tong pot, which was filled with whale fat, which was warm and gentle.
Bright light immediately filled the entire stone chamber, and then Su Chen discovered that there were many characters and stories carved on the surrounding stone walls, which were Nagra's adventures.
"Your Majesty, why have you summoned me here?" Su Chen was even more surprised that Iron Bone Bjorn, the Swedish king who had just humiliated himself and refused his oath of allegiance, was now wearing a coarse linen shirt.
Sitting on the stone steps like a kind old man looking at himself.
"You resent me! You probably think that I am an ignorant old man who refused the oath!" Iron-bone Bjorn smiled and said slowly to Su Chen.
"I was too reckless. How could I, a young person with no prestige, expect to become the lord of East Hamar?" Su Chen calmed down at this time and said to Iron Bone Bjorn.
"You are wrong. You are the most promising young man I have ever seen. What great things can a person without ambition do, but I cannot let you become the lord of East Hamar at this time." Iron-bone Bjorn
Enque shook his head and said calmly.
"Why?" Su Chen asked immediately.
"Because I don't want to see a talented young man like you die in the civil strife in East Hamar. Although Hrov is a stingy, cruel and unfair lord, his influence in East Hamar is deeply rooted, and his followers
The soldiers are already planning to get rid of you, and it is impossible for you to subdue them alone." Iron-bone Bjorn said to Suchen.
"So what, Hrov has been preparing to kill me a long time ago. If it hadn't been for a blizzard, my friends and I would have died. This is a battle where he dies or I die." Su Chen said
He didn't take it seriously. He had known all this for a long time, so he tried every means to gain Bjorn's support. But since Bjorn refused to support him, he was also prepared to face Hrov's wrath alone.
"I support you." Iron-bone Bjorn looked at Su Chen at this moment and said.
"What, then why didn't you agree to my oath in public?" Su Chen asked in surprise.
"Because I cannot openly agree to a rebellion, but I will send Gudmundel to follow you back to East Hamar, and let him help you obtain the rights of East Hamar and become the new lord, but I will not admit that I helped
