Arthur was really not familiar with this group of people in the hall, so as soon as he entered the door, he directly found a corner to sit down and listened attentively, preparing to see what happened.
But before Arthur could understand, someone outside heard shouting: "The city lord is here!"
Suddenly, Karina's arrival attracted everyone's attention, and everyone gathered in the direction of Karina. What is going on?
"Lord City Lord, what are your plans for the pirate attack?"
"Your Excellency, City Lord, rumors of pirate attacks have spread in the city. How should we deal with it?"
"Your Excellency, all members of the Knights are ready and can attack at any time!"
"Lord City Lord..."
Good guy, this is just like a press conference. In an instant, Karina was surrounded. Everyone was asking Karina questions desperately. Taking this opportunity, Arthur also simply organized the matter.
It's clear.
It turns out that Messiah has encountered an unprecedented crisis! Just two days ago, an unknown pirate force launched an attack on the waters surrounding Messiah. Many fishing boats were burned and fishermen were killed. If there were no patrols,
The Messiah warship discovered and arrived in time. I am afraid more people will be killed.
Although the attack seemed small in scale, Messiah received shocking news from a captured small pirate ship afterwards!
Just three days later, a formation united by the four major pirate groups will head to Messiah and launch a military attack on Messiah. Their purpose is obvious, that is, to seize Messiah and destroy the original joy.
The capital has become a paradise for their pirates!
But why haven’t I heard about this kind of thing? Is it true that I have been too deaf to things outside the window recently?
When Arthur learned that the pirates were about to attack, his expression was immediately stunned. This was no small matter, and from what I heard, the number of pirates this time was quite large. With the current defensive strength of Messiah, I am afraid that
There is really no way to beat the opponent.
Because of this, these Messiah officials ran to the castle to seek Karina's opinion. At the same time, it could be seen that many of them were uneasy in their hearts, and they were obviously very afraid of the pirates.
There is no way, the Messianic days of peace have been too long, and these people have instinctively become comfortable. Now that a war is suddenly about to be launched, how can they accept it?
It is even said that there are surrender factions among them. This is simply unreasonable. Do they think that those brutal pirates can let everyone here go after getting the Messiah without spending a single soldier?
What's going on? You must be either killed or treated as a slave. Pirates don't care what your status is. They even say that the higher your status is, the more sense of accomplishment they will feel when killing you.
If you can't even see clearly, why are you coming here and calling? Just wash up and go home and go to sleep.
"I have my own opinion regarding this matter. I will give you a satisfactory answer this afternoon. Now everyone, please leave!" It seemed that Karina couldn't stand the noise from this group of people, and finally shouted
Stomping his feet, he didn't answer anyone's questions and directly issued an order to expel the guests.
"Your Majesty the City Lord, you can't do this..."
"Even so, at least give us an answer..."
"Captain Hannibal! See off the guests!"
"Yes! Your Excellency, City Lord!"
To these quarreling guys, Hannibal directly raised his hand, and the members of the Knights all flashed their swords. Now, no one dared to say anything. Everyone knows what kind of temper Hannibal is. No matter who you are, as long as you
Even if you provoke him, he will still not give you face!
In this life, Hannibal has only been loyal to Karina's father. When Karina's father died of illness, he has been trying his best to support Karina. It can be said that Hannibal is like Karina's family for generations.
The courtier will always keep his promise and will always stand behind and silently protect Karina's family.
No one dares to mess with Hannibal like this, and no one can mess with him. Forget it, now that the eviction order has been issued, everyone should stop being ignorant and go back and wait for news.
"Thank you, Uncle Hannibal." After everyone left, Karina immediately expressed her gratitude to Captain Hannibal. After all, she was really not good at dealing with this kind of scene. Without Hannibal's strength,
If the character is here, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to handle it.
"As long as I'm here, no one dares to act wild here!" Hannibal grinned and patted his chest, making the chest armor jingle. He was really tough.
"Well, Uncle Hannibal, I have something I want to talk to a friend about. Can you give me some private space?"
"Is this the boy?"
"Um……"
Although a group of troublemakers were driven away, no one paid attention to Arthur in the corner. However, at this time, he had obviously become the protagonist of the scene, especially when Hannibal's eyes shifted to him.
Arthur felt as if he was being watched by an eagle, and his body suddenly shivered.
This Captain Hannibal is indeed no ordinary person, he is really powerful.
"You don't look like a man at all..." He walked up to Arthur in a few steps, looked at Arthur's face up and down, and after deliberation, Hannibal gave this answer.
"But it's okay, at least he performed well."
Although Hannibal did not give a clear evaluation of Arthur's appearance, at least he was very satisfied with Arthur's performance. After all, Hannibal had shown his full momentum just now, and Arthur could withstand the pressure.
, which shows that he is a talent that can be created.
What's more, Hannibal still has an impression of Arthur. The talented young man who once dueled with several mercenaries once caused a sensation in Messiah. It would be strange if he would forget it so easily.
"Uncle Hannibal!" Seeing that Hannibal was testing Arthur and even criticizing Arthur, Karina was immediately unhappy. After all, Arthur was her friend, and it was very rude for Hannibal to do this.
"Hahaha, you are angry with your Uncle Hannibal because of a little boy. This is the first time I have seen Karina like this." Hannibal was immediately shocked by the little girl Karina's coquettish appearance.
He laughed three times, but he didn't say anything more. He just showed a meaningful smile to Arthur, turned around and left with his knights.
What does that smile of his mean? Arthur is very puzzled. He should ask if he wants to. Hannibal has already left. What's more, Arthur doesn't want to have too much contact with Hannibal. After all, the cold feeling just now has made him so far.
I feel heart palpitations. If I hadn't managed to hold on, I would have been embarrassed.
I had a hard time disconnecting from the internet all afternoon, but it hasn’t come back yet, so I have to go to my grandma’s house to upload this chapter. As for the third chapter... I’ll upload it when my family gets internet, I’m crying...
