This change was so sudden that it was hard to guard against!
"Be careful!" Jin Chen only had time to shout, "Be careful," and had no time to move.
The three subjects felt the warriors' attack and that they could fall upon them at any moment. They were terrified at first, but later calmed down. They had come here with the intention of dying! Now that death had finally arrived, they could finally let go of their worries.
They were about to die, but they felt relieved. This shows the humbleness of the common people and the poor in this era.
“Whoosh!”
A "rapid-shooting arrow" shot in from outside the door and killed the noble young man with one arrow!
Everyone found it hard to accept this reversal for a while!
Unexpectedly, the first drop of blood in the conference hall was actually a noble, and he died because of such a trivial matter as killing three untouchables.
Step, step, step...
A sword and shield warrior walked in, unleashing the might of a war captain wantonly. He said to the nobles, "Who else dares to move?"
Although the nobles were shocked by the young noble's murder, no one said anything. Nowadays, the nobles were all based on a single warrior.
The relationship between the nobles was not very good. Instead, they often fought with each other and had grudges of varying degrees.
Only families with living warriors are nobles; if they are dead, they are no longer nobles.
"The one who was shooting the arrow just now was a lieutenant, right?"
"A war lieutenant-level archer! Hiss! How terrifying!"
"Another captain appears?! This one's a swordsman and shieldman!"
"This should be the Jin family master's trump card, the remaining two of the three war lieutenants."
"Who is he? Why haven't I seen him before?"
"This person looks quite familiar."
"Is this person really from our water village?"
"I remember now, it's the Ruan family! He looks a lot like the old patriarch of the Ruan family! He should be from the Ruan family, right?!"
"Ah! Now that you mention it, it really does look like it!"
"Ruan family? Which Ruan family?"
"It's the now-deceased Ruan family, the one known as the strongest sword and shield warriors. They ultimately perished in the apocalyptic war of the Corpse Demon Plague. Alas—if he hadn't led the Sword and Shield Team to hold off the zombie horde's attack, we don't know if we could have retreated to the Water Fort alive!"
"Ah! So it's the Ruan family! A famous family! But why haven't I heard of them since I arrived at the Water Village? I thought their family had been wiped out?"
"hehe……"
This question is embarrassing.
The extraordinary world is inherently cruel! Although there are various professional ethics and etiquette constraints, the essence is still that the strong are respected!
Professional ethics and etiquette are rules set by the strong to restrain the weak.
When they lose the corresponding strength, others will immediately show the cruel side of the law of the jungle.
There are many declining noble and warrior families in the water stronghold. Because they have lost their corresponding strength, but still have some precious resources, they are bullied by people from other families that have retained their strength and swallowed up the precious cultivation resources they left behind.
Those were dark times!
The noble who had devoured the Ruan family's precious cultivation resources was immediately terrified and quickly hid in the crowd. The several families who knew the inside story exchanged glances, each with their own thoughts.
Wu Zheng looked at the newly appeared Ruan Qi, then at Jin Chen and the amazing arrow. These people were very imposing!
This doesn't look like he has just been promoted to lieutenant!
Even if Wu Hong was not injured, he probably would not be able to defeat any of the opponents.
This system is really magical!
Father Jin did not show any surprise from beginning to end, as if everything was within his expectations.
"Silence!" After the hall was quiet, Father Jin spoke, "Someone just asked why the delegates were chosen this way. I can answer this question because the other two lieutenants came from civilian areas and slums. Although they were promoted to lieutenants due to a chance encounter, they haven't forgotten their roots. This is their opinion. Any other questions?"
The nobles immediately nodded in unison, "No more."
As expected, he was a fallen noble, living in the commoner area. The other one should be in a similar situation, just living in the slums?
Unexpectedly, they can still rise!
No one expected this!
Such a story is too legendary!
Unexpectedly, I met them while they were still alive. I don’t know whether it is lucky or unfortunate!
Having two war captains who sympathize with the common people and the poor is not a small matter for the nobles.
Fortunately, the noble company still has Jin Chen and Wu Hong. Two against two, the life of the nobles should not be too difficult!
Moreover, they have now been promoted to war captains, and should soon be able to restore their family status and even improve their family status to become aristocrats among aristocrats!
After leaving the civilian areas and slums, they will gradually become more dependent on them. They firmly believe this because history has long proved this truth!
Therefore, although the nobles looked unhappy, they did not lose their composure!
The nobles understand the rules of the game in this world better.
Without strength, there is no right to speak. This applies to the three captains' attitude towards all the nobles, and also to the nobles' attitude towards all the powerless untouchables!
Even if they were given power temporarily, what would it matter? How could they hold on to it if they had no strength? The power they borrowed wasn't their own. If the two war captains changed their minds, they could immediately expel these untouchables from the conference hall.
Therefore, the nobles who have the corresponding strength and are familiar with the rules of the world are not in a hurry at all!
After everyone agreed, Father Jin moved on to the next topic.
"Okay, since everyone agrees, we can begin propaganda, counting the number of people, gathering the people, selecting representatives, and entering parliament. But before that, we must first resolve a problem. The lord's problem!"
"I believe that the Lord is no longer qualified to be my Lord. For publicity purposes, we need to clarify who our Lord is. I propose deposing Gu Yan from his position as Lord, demoting the Gu family to nobility, and ennobling the Mercenary Lord as our Lord. Since we haven't been able to contact the Mercenary Lord, the Lordship will remain vacant. A seven-member management team will be established to manage the parliament and temporarily govern on behalf of the Lord."
Father Jin's outrageous proposal did not surprise the people present. Instead, they felt that the head of the Jin family was very patient in saying it at this time.
"Master Jin has finally taken action against Gu Yan."
"Master Jin has done a very nice thing."
"Master Jin is so kind and righteous! He saved the Gu family and gave them dignity."
"This vacant position is really wise!"
