Jiang Jin paused slightly when she said this.
She looked at the forty or so Knights, each with a different expression, took a deep breath, and said to them, "My fellow Knights, I know you have dedicated your most precious time to the city of Alicante, and have even lived and died for it."
"However, to become a strong town, one must have an army strong enough to withstand external attacks, and you are far from meeting the standards of a knight."
"So I will fire you." Jiang Jin hardened her heart and said it anyway. Her words were so absolute that they blocked all the paths of the Knights.
What he said implied that the Knights were not strong enough, so he fired them.
Not only were the crowds in an uproar, but everyone in the Knights Templar also looked shocked, as if they couldn't believe that they, as knights, would have such a day.
Everyone's eyes turned to Brook, trying to find some clues on his face, and hoping that he could stand up for all the people in the Knights.
"We are the oldest people in Alicante, and she wants to replace us all?! What the hell is this woman thinking? She is not worthy of being the mayor of Alicante."
Some of the Knights with bad tempers immediately started cursing loudly.
In their minds, they still did not treat Jiang Jin as a real city girl of Alicante.
"That's right! What does a woman know? Our strength is obvious to everyone. It's a joke that these few boys can defend the city of Alicante." Another person exclaimed loudly.
They stood together with Balke and others and did not deliberately suppress their noise, so Balke and others could hear it clearly.
They all said this, and if Bart and others did not respond, they would appear to be very cowardly.
Especially Tram, a man who was seriously injured, but he was at the forefront of the scolding.
"Which son of a bitch is talking nonsense! Come out here! Even if I'm injured, I can still beat you to a pulp with just a wooden sword. If you have something to say, come out and fight us." Trem waved his hands and yelled.
There was another commotion in the Knights, and just as they were about to fight, Jiang Jin's wand emitted a shimmering light, and then launched a blast, freezing everyone in the Knights' body, including the few who had just shouted the loudest, even sealing their mouths.
Now I really can’t say anything and I can’t move my hands.
Jiang Jin coughed and looked at them coldly, saying to them, "Do you still have any regard for me, this city girl?!"
Balke quickly dragged Trem and the others to kneel together, but Brook of the Knights did not move at all, just quietly watching Jiang Jin's performance.
He must have understood Jiang Jin's intention in his heart. Jiang Jin would never let anyone from the Knights stay.
Since that's the case, there's no need for him to be polite to Jiang Jin anymore.
As the core figure of the Knights, Brook took the lead in bowing to Jiang Jin and said, "I, Brook, support the arrangements made by the group leader. In fact, I have been complacent in Alicante for so many years, and my swordsmanship has been getting worse day by day. Even if the Lord Mayor didn't say it, I have already prepared to go on a long journey to improve myself."
Brook's words put himself on a high pedestal and deeply condemned Jiang Jin. He meant that he had long known his own shortcomings and was ready to travel far away, but before he could say it, Jiang Jin wanted to disband the Knights, which made Brook and others very disappointed.
Even if he was leaving, he would try his best to drag Jiang Jin into this trouble.
Brook is worthy of being Brook. After he said these words, the general could obviously see that many people in the crowd had thoughtful expressions.
Jiang Jin smiled and said to Brook, "Brooke, you are a very competent Knight Commander. I also know how many great achievements the Knights have made under your leadership."
"Alicante is grateful for your presence. If possible, I hope you will continue to stay in Alicante and become a resident of Alicante. This will be an honor for me and for all residents of Alicante."
Although Jiang Jin wanted Brook to leave her sight as soon as possible, she still had to put on a good show. After saying some nice words to him, she stared at Brook with her watery eyes.
The two people's eyes met in the air, each with his own thoughts.
Jiang Jin's words asking him to stay sounded like they were for Brook's good, but in reality, she just wanted him to be an ordinary resident of Alicante, no longer the awe-inspiring leader of the City Palace Knights who made others tremble with fear at his words.
What’s the point if you are not standing in a position admired by everyone?
Brook not only wants the position of leader of the Knights of Alicante, he also wants greater power.
However, he did not expect that the city in front of him, which seemed weak but actually had extremely strong vitality, was still standing firmly in this position.
He still had many plans that he had not been able to implement one by one, and he was about to be driven out of Alicante like a stray dog. This was something he could never accept.
So after Jiang Jin spoke, he immediately turned the direction of the conversation towards himself, trying to create the feeling that he was forced away by the general.
In this way, these foolish people will be bewitched by their own words and think that Jiang Jin is the one who does not care about the elderly, and even destroys the old people after crossing the bridge, and is ruthless to them.
But who is Jiang Jin? Jiang Jin is a beast of the 21st century!
He was well aware of these little tricks, and it could be said that Brook's ideas were simply unbearable to the general.
"Oh, my dear Brooke. I sincerely hope that you can stay in Alicante and stay with us. I will arrange a house for you so that you can live a happy life in Alicante."
What Jiang Jin said to Brooke meant that she would be assigned a house and she could live out her life in the house alone.
"If possible, I hope you can improve your swordsmanship and teach the children of Alicante swordsmanship in the new school in Alicante."
Your current skills are not very good. When I get better in the future, maybe I will hire you again as a useless teacher.
When it comes to polite remarks, Jiang Jin was not at a disadvantage at all. In a few words, she expressed her generosity and the benefits she provided to the old employees. She quickly responded to what Brooke had said.
