This Lich Needs More Money Chapter 275

Chapter 275 Allen's Treason

Allan opened his mouth to leave, and everyone understood what this departure meant.

The paladin general in charge of the city stared at Allen and asked in a deep voice: "Do you know what you are talking about? Leave, where do you want to go?"

"I don't know." Allen looked at the sky and continued: "Maybe he will travel on the mainland."

“You will bring shame on your father!” said the general angrily.

Allen smiled and said: "General, I have been in the army for more than five years. According to the law, I can retire unconditionally. Since it is allowed by the law, why would it bring shame to my father? Doesn't Ryan no longer respect the law?"

The general had nothing to say, because he knew that Allen was pretending to be stupid, and this issue did not need to be discussed at all.

It is not easy for people in Lane to leave the military, even though Lane has the most relaxed discharge approval procedures. According to the military rules written on the document, Lane people can choose to retire unconditionally as long as they serve in the army for five years. Even if there is not enough time, retirement will generally be approved as long as there are reasonable reasons.

But few people would choose to retire. Firstly, the income of being a soldier in Laing is very high, and secondly, the atmosphere in Laing is very unfriendly to those who retire voluntarily.

Nearly all soldiers who are discharged without injury will be called deserters and cowards.

Unless you are a veteran who has experienced countless wars and made many meritorious deeds, you must be old enough and no longer able to participate in wars before you can retire honorably.

Until just now, Allen realized that he could no longer stay in this place. Even if he hadn't found the direction yet, he had to leave, otherwise he would only be controlled by the corruption, just like the Silver Moon Knight.

The young man Allen had met before was frightened by the battlefield and wanted to go home. His brother wanted to kill the younger brother on the spot, because if word of this spread, it would bring shame to the family.

Allen received the guidance of the Silver Moon Knight and has made extraordinary achievements. He is the most suitable candidate. If Allen deserts, he may lose his military morale and the city may not be able to defend it.

By the time James Watson returned to the Imperial Capital of Lane, the news of Allen's defection had spread throughout the Imperial Capital. When he saw the little emperor with a sneer on his face, James Watson said indifferently: "Your Majesty, Allen has served for more than five years and wants to retire. Is there anything wrong?"

But before, he didn't know where he should go, so he continued to stay in this city to resist the orcs' counterattacks for Lane.

Amid the accusations and questions, Allen packed his luggage, including a few changes of clothes, armor and sword, because this was equipment issued by the army.

No matter what the reason is, it is a great shame to actively apply for retirement.

James Watson laughed and said: "Your Majesty, are you mistaken? The Supreme Judgment is responsible for abiding by Lane's laws. Every move I make must strictly abide by the law. On the contrary, a legal retirement behavior will lead to After receiving so much criticism and insult, I am considering whether to hold those people accountable.”

Although the general was unhappy with Allen's recent performance, he still valued this young man in his heart, otherwise he would not have allowed Allen to go fishing in such a remote place by himself.

"You really have a clever tongue, my Lord the Supreme Judge. However, do you think your words can satisfy the people of Lane? Allen is now considered a traitor, and everyone will spontaneously want him Your son, I want to see how you, the supreme judge, work?"

The young emperor sneered and said: "Don't tell me anything about the law. I want to laugh when I hear it. Is this a matter of law? Allen is treason. How can you be the supreme judge?"

This news will soon spread throughout Lane, and Allen will become a sinner of the entire Lane and will be hated by everyone. But he didn't care, the only thing that worried him a little was the pressure his father was going to be under.

The Knight of Silver Moon passed away, and the army needed a new idol to stabilize its morale.

Now, Allen is going to be a deserter.

The impact of this incident will definitely shock the entire Lane, because Allen is the youngest legendary paladin in the history of Lane. The empire just gave him this honor, but he turned around and became a deserter?

The reputation gained before will immediately turn into a sharp sword stabbing Allen. He may not be as simple as a deserter, but will be considered a traitor.

“Alan, I'll pretend I didn't hear what you just said. I'll give you a day to think about it. After you think about it, come back to me.”

But there is no need to worry about him in the future. Just as the Supreme Judgment chose to stick to his position after knowing that his son was kidnapped by a lich, the same goes for Allen. At the critical moment, he should move in the direction of his beliefs.

As for the so-called legitimate reasons...you said you want to take care of your parents? Do your parents know that you are a deserter and a coward? Did you say you wanted to go home and get married? Does your fiancée know you are a deserter and a coward?

At last, Allen wore simple cloth and left the military camp like a vagabond.

　　On the night when the Moon Silver Knight passed away, he truly felt the changes in Ryan. Wrapped in the fanatical belief was an imperceptible decay.

Allan knew that the general meant well, but he had actually had the idea of leaving Ryan a long time ago.

The little emperor has determined that James Watson is in big trouble this time. For a long time, he has been pointed out by the supreme judge more than once, and now he can finally vent his anger.

James Watson didn't care, and instead asked the emperor: "Your Majesty, my trouble is not important, but in a few days it will be His Majesty Arthur's birthday, which is the most important day for Ryan. I don't know how your Majesty is going to arrange this. Celebration?”

The little emperor didn't know what James Watson meant, and said cautiously: "You don't have to worry about this, just keep everything as usual. It was the same thing last year." But James Watson shook his head and said, "This year is different. Your Majesty. The Silver Moon Knight has just passed away, and the plan to attack the Orc Mountains has to be interrupted. Then the people of Lane are unstable. On this critical day, they need some comfort. My suggestion is that your Majesty, you should take out the magic dragon weapons. Let the people see the power of this national artifact, which should appease people's hearts."

“Take out the dragon's weapons?”

The little emperor had a troubled expression on his face. He didn't want to show off this powerful artifact in front of everyone, but he couldn't do it.

The little emperor was able to sit in this position just because he made the magic dragon's weapon shine from a distance of more than ten meters.

But the light is as weak as a firefly. How can this effect be achieved? Others will only laugh and be disappointed when they see it. How can it have a comforting effect?

The Demonic Dragon Arms are usually locked deep in the palace, and even the emperor cannot touch them. They can only sense the Demonic Dragon Arms through several fences.

The little emperor has never even touched it himself, let alone brought it out to show off.

"There is no need to consider this matter. The magic dragon's weapons are not suitable. Let's try another method." The little emperor refused.

James Watson said: "Why is it not suitable? Your Majesty, I also know the rules of the royal family. Although the connection between the magic dragon weapon and you is not so obvious, isn't it because the distance is too far? If the magic dragon weapon can If you wear it, the induction effect may become stronger. Your Majesty, don't you want to wear this magical weapon?”

The little emperor was moved by what James Watson said. Who doesn't want to try the power of the artifact? He has been the emperor for several years and has never touched it... He just took this opportunity to try on the magic dragon weapon. If it really can't be used, just take it off when the time comes. Anyway, there won't be any problem if you give it a try.

"Okay, I will consider this matter, please step back."

The little emperor drove away James Watson, and then ran to the depths of the palace happily.

After passing through several secret passages, the little emperor finally came to a wide hall.

Thirteen old men in white-gold robes are sleeping here. Each of them has snow-white hair and wrinkled face, and they all look somewhat similar.

These are all members of the royal family, and most of them have even been emperors, but they are too old and can only save time by sleeping.

Lyan people cannot use magic potions to extend their lives. This rule has been passed down to this day.

These thirteen old men are the real controllers of the Lane royal family, and they handle the emperor's inheritance ceremony.

When the little emperor came here, these thirteen old people did not wake up. Instead, a waiter left a letter for the little emperor, and then passed the contents of the letter into the minds of these old people through a special magic ritual.

If it is an important matter, these thirteen old people will wake up and discuss the important matter together.

If it is not important, then they will only give a thought reply.

This has been the case for so many years.

The little emperor sometimes thought that these thirteen old men were the real emperor, he was just a puppet.

However, this time he must try the power of the magic dragon weapon, otherwise he will be the emperor in vain.

On the other side of the imperial capital, James Watson returned to the Privy Inquisition.

As soon as he appeared, everyone in the court looked at him strangely. James Watson didn't care at all and strode to his office.

The deputy who had known him for many years saw James Watson appearing and said quickly: "Sir, is that true about Allen? Is he really treasonous?"

James Watson did not answer the question, but said to him: "Call all the heads of various departments over. I don't want to explain it over and over again."

After a while, the directors of all important departments of the Privy Inquisition came to James Watson's office, and everyone was looking forward to James Watson's answer.

"Everyone is here, let me say it again. Allen has served for more than five years. According to imperial law, he can retire without reason. Therefore, I don't think his behavior has anything to do with treason. You want to call him a coward? Playboys, I don't mind, but don't insult the laws of the empire. We are administering the laws for the great gods. Don't use your personal emotions to affect justice. This is all my response. Who is dissatisfied with this result. Yes, you can resign yourself, the Privy Tribunal does not need such idiots who ignore legal principles."

James Watson dealt with the rumors about Allen in this simple and crude way, but in the end one-third of the people in the Privy Council chose to resign, including several departments that James Watson usually values especially director.

Looking at the resignation letter on the table, James Watson sighed softly: "Ryan, you have indeed fallen without knowing it."
