Chapter 283 Voting and Cursing
When Lu He saw Huo Ximan's still bleeding head slowly falling from the air to the high platform again.
The silent theater suddenly rang with the sound of swallowing saliva, which sounded disgusting.
"Speaker Huo Ximan is dead, such a powerful Sky Knight died just like that..." Someone sighed softly, and then felt a piercing chill, Sauron's strength terrified them.
"Devil..." Although some people whispered that Lu He was a devil because of fear, they had to admit that he was powerful.
Speaker Huo Ximan was born in the Sword of Order, one of the three major knight organizations in Xizhou, and his strength was extremely powerful.
He was respected by the world as the Knight of Order, and his name was well-known in several countries near the Crescent Empire. Any organization or individual had to give face to him. He was a recognized top powerhouse.
But now, the head was caught in his hand.
Everyone understood that it was not Huo Ximan who was weak, but the Sky Knight Sauron was too strong, unexpectedly strong.
Lu He looked at the head in his hand, threw it casually, and threw it to a wealthy noble below.
Based on the aura on his body and the viciousness in his eyes, he judged that this person should be a direct blood relative of Huo Ximan.
"Take it back, he is quite strong, give him a good funeral." Lu He said with a smile.
Huo Ximan fought with him for more than ten moves before he was defeated. His strength is really strong. As a native, he deserves respect.
Old Will stood up shakily, without saying anything harsh, picked up the head, stood up and left the theater.
Lu He looked at his back, and a strange smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He then walked to the loudspeaker and said to the dazed nobles below as if nothing had happened:
"My matter has been successfully concluded. Now the meeting continues. Um... Let's start voting directly."
"Sauron, you..." The old emperor spoke, with a complicated look in his eyes, not knowing what to say.
"What? Do you have any opinions?" Lu He frowned slightly.
The old emperor's heart was beating wildly when he heard this. Although he and Sauron were allies, he still felt a little scared.
Because the cold light in Sauron's eyes made him feel that allies were nothing, and they should be killed.
He shook his head decisively, indicating that he had no opinion.
"What about you? Do you have any opinions?" Lu He turned his eyes to a certain Grand Duke, and his voice was still cold.
Grand Duke Alisha's pupils suddenly contracted, and his body was as if he had encountered a flood and beast. His heart was beating violently, and he said in a barely audible voice: "No opinion."
Lu He nodded with satisfaction. He knew that many people still had great opinions in their hearts, but he didn't mind.
People's hearts are complicated, and human nature is ugly. He can't control it.
He can only control people's bodies.
As long as he can pinch their mouths and tie their hands, Lu He feels that it's enough, and there is no need to go into it.
"Then vote."
"Please raise your hands if you agree to the reform."
Lu He said lightly, and set his sights on a group of nobles who had the right to vote in the front row of the theater.
The atmosphere was very strange. As he glanced around, except for the old Earl Blaise, everyone else subconsciously lowered their heads to avoid his gaze, including the few people who had the most fierce quarrels before the show started.
Ten seconds later, no one raised their hands, and no one expressed their opinions.
"Please raise your hands if you disagree with the reform."
The result was obvious, but Lu He thought about it seriously and felt that for the sake of fairness, he would continue to talk nonsense.
Because if there were abstentions, especially if all of them abstained, it would still be questionable whether the reform would be carried out.
After speaking, Lu He raised his hand.
Immediately, almost everyone raised their hands, even the lower-level nobles who had no voting rights.
The entire theater was in unison, and everyone's right hand was raised high, like a straight line of spears.
"Why should we raise our hands?" The yellow-haired man looked at the white-haired man next to him and asked cautiously.
"Do you dare not raise your hand!?" The white-haired man asked back.
Huang Mao shook his head without hesitation. Earl Sauron's eyes were too scary, making him feel a chill, as if there was an icy knife on his neck.
Lu He looked back and saw that two of the ten grand dukes did not move, and the rest raised their hands.
He smiled and did not pursue it.
Those who did not raise their hands were all hardliners who did not care about their lives. He did not want to care about it. Anyway, the things he promised to the old emperor had been completed.
If he helped him to eliminate these opponents, it would be like unpaid labor. Dogs would not do such things.
Moreover, reform is actually the general trend and is inevitable when this society develops to a certain stage.
Although he has the strength to reverse the general trend, it is still the same sentence. It is possible but not necessary. It is better to practice swordsmanship and improve his strength with this spare time.
Anyway, no matter what system it is, it will not affect his ability to do whatever he wants in this world.
Power comes from strength. This principle is common in any world.
He only needs to improve his strength, and his power will naturally become bigger and stronger.
In addition, the biggest danger was solved for the old emperor. Without the promotion of the Sky Knight, Huo Ximan, the strength of the Royal Alliance could at least guarantee that there would be no problems in the next ten years.
The voting was successfully completed, and the meeting was over. Everyone dispersed and left the theater gate.
Some people walked quickly, wanting to leave this ghost place where they could lose their lives at any time.
Some people looked back every three steps, such as the yellow and white hair duo, who wanted to take a closer look at their new idol.
Lu He declined the invitation of the old Earl Blaise to visit his home and walked towards the carriage.
"Lord Sauron." Suddenly, the voice of the seventh princess Olivia came from behind.
Lu He turned around and saw the seventh princess walking slowly.
The silver-white palace skirt tightly outlined her slender waist, highlighting her tall and firm breasts. Her slender legs were looming between the hems of the skirt, which was very charming.
"Is there anything?" Lu He asked.
"Can't I chat with you if I have nothing to do?"
Olivia remembered that she was almost pierced through the heart by a sword a few nights ago, and she showed a little resentment.
Seeing that Lu He was indifferent, she approached gently, leaned forward, and the tip of her firm breasts rubbed against Lu He's chest, and a faint body fragrance surrounded Lu He.
"Aren't you going to the treasury?"
"Your Majesty asked me to take charge of this matter. When you have time, let me know and I'll take you there."
Olivia's voice was very low, and she leaned close to Lu He's ear as if she was whispering something.
After that, she left with light steps.
Many people saw this scene, and their faces showed expressions of contemplation, envy, or solemnity.
And the old Earl Blaise patted Lu He's shoulder with an ambiguous smile, with an expression that said everything.
Lu He chuckled and turned away.
After everyone left, Grand Duke Alisha's body suddenly softened, and he slumped in the chair like mud.
"You are still afraid of death at this age?" Grand Duke Rip next to him looked extremely contemptuous.
"It's because I'm old that I'm afraid of death!" Grand Duke Yunda on the other side sighed, with an indescribable sense of loss in his heart.
Just now, he also raised his hand. The only one who didn't raise his hand among the three was Grand Duke Rip, who was not afraid of death.
"We still have a chance!" Grand Duke Rip looked at the empty Royal Theater and whispered to himself.
"There is indeed a chance, but Sauron...what can we feed him?" Grand Duke Alisha was stunned when he heard this.
Although the old emperor kept it a secret, the three of them knew the reason why Sauron helped the Alex royal family.
It's just that they didn't take it too seriously before, thinking that with Hosiman there, Sauron couldn't affect the overall situation.
But the most important thing is that they are reluctant to open their own treasure house to Sauron and feel it is unnecessary.
But now... I can only say that I regret it.
"This matter still needs to be considered in the long run." Grand Duke Yunda said faintly, and he felt uncomfortable when he thought of Sauron's deeds.
Although he wanted to reform, if he had to pay his own treasures to reform, he thought it would be better not to reform.
Grand Duke Rip snorted coldly and got up and left.
If others reformed for the sake of profit, he didn't, he did it for the ideal in his heart.
So he was not afraid of death, not afraid of Sauron, so even if he knew that the situation was over today, he still didn't raise his hand.
…………
The first thing you see is the spacious reception hall, where the peacock ceiling lamp is still on even during the day.
Every few steps along the edge of the corner, a rare and precious plant is placed. In the center is a set of sofas and a white jade table, with light blue flowers in a white vase on the table.
Next to the flowers is a head.
The golden ground in front of the head is full of people kneeling, men and women, old and young.
There are constant sobbing sounds in the silent hall. The death of Hosiman is like the sky falling for them. The breath of despair and fear slowly permeates among the crowd.
Bella looked at Uncle Hosiman's closed eyes, her face was miserable, and tears could not help but flow down.
She was really sad, sad for her uncle's death.
But she knew that some people were not, they were just sad for losing their uncle, the big tree that shaded them from the sky.
"Revenge!? Even Hoshiman was defeated, what can we do to seek revenge on Sauron???"
Bella looked at Ansai who was speaking in a daze. He was Hoshiman's younger brother and her uncle.
Uncle Hoshiman usually cleaned up many butts for him outside, but now he...
A dark red flashed in Bella's eyes.
"Yes, Sauron didn't vent his anger on us. I think we should not provoke him. We can't afford to provoke the Sky Knight."
Even though he was far away in the manor, Everton could still see the flames covering the sky and the sun clearly. He just recalled the scene just now and felt a chill in his bones.
Old Will raised his head suddenly.
He stared at Everton and others with his red eyes, and said in a sinister voice: "Either Sauron dies or my Will family dies. If you say no again, I will send you down to accompany my son now!"
"Grandpa! I must avenge Uncle Hoshiman! As long as I can kill Sauron, I will do anything!"
Bella smiled sadly. She recalled Hoshiman's care and love for her, and she suddenly had a strong killing intention in her heart.
Suddenly she looked at Grandpa Will in shock, and his eyes began to slowly flow out of black and red liquid.
"Grandpa... Grandpa..."
"Good boy!" Old Will smiled comfortingly, and suddenly he felt something wet on his face.
He reached out and touched his cheek, which was black and red.
Bella suddenly felt something was wrong at this time, and she wiped her eyes with her sleeves.
She was horrified to find that her tears had turned into black and red liquid without knowing when.
"What's going on?!"
Bella was terrified and quickly wiped the dark red tears from her face with her hands, but her eyes couldn't stop shedding more and more tears.
She felt her eyeballs getting swollen and dry, as if something was stuck in her eyes. She rubbed her eyes with her hands, but they became swollen instead.
The black and red tears flowed more and more, and finally...
Bang bang! !
Suddenly, there were two muffled sounds, and old Will's eyeballs suddenly exploded, and his body stiffened in place, motionless.
With a puff, he fell directly to the sky.
"Grandpa!!!"
Bella covered her mouth and trembled. She saw that the red and white brain matter began to flow out of the bloody hole in Grandpa's eyes!
She turned her head to look at the others, and was immediately horrified.
Bang bang bang...
