Chapter 225 Breaking through the Great Hall
"You are probably exposed."
Levi turned his head and looked at Senger, shrugged.
"Don't you think the wind is a bit strong?"
Senger is still being stubborn.
"I was barely an adult when I left, and now nearly 20 years have passed, so much has changed that they can't possibly recognize me."
"Okay, if you say so, then so be it."
Levi was too lazy to continue arguing with him, the matter was already very clear.
After all, Marshal Rohan does not work for nothing. As the general and supreme marshal under the king, when he hears an outsider say that he wants to beat the king up, he cannot just sit there and do nothing, even if the king is now infamous.
No matter what, he is their king, and the king's dignity cannot be challenged. This is the duty and obligation of a marshal.
Even if the opponent is Levi, he has to fight first, even if it's just for show. He can't just give in before he even starts fighting.
But...
If it was Levi plus Rohan's popular prince, Senger, the next and only legitimate heir of Rohan, the nature of the situation would be different.
After quickly cleaning up the still hot mushroom soup in the pot, the two men mounted their horses, bypassed Fort Ord, and continued westward.
One day later.
In the wilderness, Senger pointed to the rather conspicuous and majestic palace on the hill in the distance and said, "Meduselde, or you can call it the 'Golden Palace', that's where the king is."
He looked at Levi.
Levi also looked at him.
The two exchanged glances and nodded to each other.
At midnight, torches were lit to illuminate the road around the palace.
Even at night, the splendor of this palace remained undiminished. The firelight jumped onto the gold-inlaid pillars in front of the door, and flowed on the bird and animal patterns inlaid with jewels and gold pieces on the gate, thus highlighting its presence.
“Stop.”
When Levi and Sengger walked to the palace gate, two guards blocked them with their swords crossed. Although their hands holding the swords were steady, their unsmooth breathing showed that they were not as calm as they seemed.
It was too stressful to stand across from this person.
"I have business with your king."
One of the guards glanced at Levi and said:
"Please wait a moment."
A moment later, the Grand Marshal stationed in Edolas arrived with dozens of fully armed soldiers and gathered in front of the door.
As soon as they arrived, they surrounded the place and no one could get in or out.
"Greetings, Legend Levi."
"Forgive me, I..."
The Grand Marshal looked at Levi, and the words he was about to say suddenly got stuck in his throat.
Normally, one needs to disarm before meeting the king, but is it really meaningful to do so to the person in front of you? Is it true that if the dragon loses its teeth, it will be helpless against the tiny human?
With his throat surging, the Grand Marshal took a deep breath and chose to firmly perform his duties.
"I must take away your weapons before I can let you go in to see King Fingal."
Levi raised his hand in cooperation. Seeing him like this, the Grand Marshal breathed a sigh of relief and went to check it himself.
No, he only had that black armor on him and no weapon.
After Levi finished the inspection, Senger was also allowed to pass. At the signal of the Grand Marshal, the two followed him into the hall.
"Who is visiting in the middle of the night? Don't you know it's time for my midnight snack?"
On the throne, the gray-haired Fingers slumped over with his big belly, and began to blame the visitor before he even saw him.
"Levi, the Lord of Roadside Castle." Levi answered briefly.
"A lord... Oh, wait, I remember you, a prominent figure in the north. You've been in the news a lot in recent years. What's up?"
"I heard that you were planning to seize my caravan some time ago?"
"Is that true?"
Fengger pretended to be doubtful, scratched his head, turned his eyes away from Levi, looked at his hands and said:
"I'm so sorry, I don't remember doing this, maybe you remembered it wrongly."
"My subjects will not deceive me."
"Then you have to be careful. There are many people whose appearance and inner thoughts are inconsistent."
"Don't worry about it. I know what happened here. I have already investigated on the way here. You did try to swallow the goods of our caravan, right?"
"So what?"
Seeing that Levi and the mysterious masked man next to him were unarmed, Fenger simply didn't bother to pretend.
"Your caravan is selling goods with malicious intent and disrupting the local market. I have legal grounds to detain them."
"What law?"
“The relevant laws.”
“What laws are relevant?”
“I made the relevant laws.”
"pretty."
Levi applauded, while Senger next to him clenched his fists and trembled with anger.
He couldn't help but yelled: "Stupid!"
"What did you say!?"
"How dare outsiders like you comment on me?"
Fengger pointed at Senger and scolded him: "For the sake of the people around you, I can forgive you once, but if you can't control your mouth next time, things won't be so simple."
"Outsiders... Oh, this is really interesting."
"you--"
The speech was suddenly interrupted.
Levi stood in front of Senger and said, "So the conclusion is that you don't intend to admit your fault, right?"
"What have I done wrong?"
"All right."
Li Wei smiled and said to Senger: "You go out first and come back later."
"Okay." Senger looked at Levi, then at Fenger, nodded slowly, and left the hall.
"It seems that you, a king who only thinks about eating and drinking and making money, have lost your mind and need to correct it."
Levi said this as he walked forward and flexed his fingers.
"What are you going to do?"
Fengger's heart tightened. Seeing that the situation was not good, he quickly shouted, "Stop him!"
"Sir, stop."
The Grand Marshal stepped forward.
Bang! The next moment, he was knocked to the ground by a punch.
Crack! Just as the Grand Marshal was touching his weapon with one hand and preparing to stand up to resist, a sword appeared out of nowhere and stuck into the ground next to his neck. He was so frightened that cold sweat broke out, and his breathing and heartbeat stopped for a moment.
"You are already dead."
Their eyes met for a moment.
Levi drew back his sword, blocked the attack from behind with a clang, kicked two people over with one kick, and knocked down the lamppost next to him with a bang.
The scene suddenly became chaotic. Fenger quickly stood up, covering his head and hid behind the throne.
The sound of metal clashing and fighting continued to be heard.
The soldiers, led by the marshal, rushed over one after another, trying to stop Levi, and then were knocked to the ground one by one.
Some soldiers wanted to stand up and continue fighting, but suddenly a strong hand grabbed his feet and pulled him back.
"Don't make any noise. Just keep lying down. That man is His Highness Senger's companion. He won't do anything too outrageous."
After saying this, the Grand Marshal closed his eyes, tilted his head, and looked very peaceful.
