Chapter 220 Reactions from all parties
"What did you say!" Brandon stood up suddenly, staring at the messenger in front of him with wide eyes, and the power of a demigod unconsciously emanated.
The messenger was just an ordinary messenger. His face immediately turned red under the pressure of this power, but in order to save his life, he forced himself to say: "The Dragon Hunting Regiment and the Wind Eagle Regiment were defeated. No one survived!"
Bang bang bang!
The power suddenly increased, crushing vases, pottery jars and other products into pieces, and the messenger fainted.
Brandon's face was as gloomy as water, the Dragon Hunting Regiment was his capital for rebellion, but now it's all gone, it was only because of his strong demigod physique, otherwise he felt that he might be angry to death.
After taking a look at the messenger on the ground, Brandon slapped him.
Snapped!
The fighting spirit burst out of his body and hit the messenger directly, knocking him over several times.
The messenger woke up immediately, looked around, and saw Brandon with a gloomy face. He immediately knelt on his knees and said, "Marshal!"
"Tell me, how did the Dragon Hunting Regiment and the Wind Eagle Regiment fall into ruin?" Brandon suppressed his anger and spoke word by word.
The messenger began to tremble: "Yes, it was the Mass. The rebels who killed him!"
Brandon had no expression on his face. The table in front of him had silently turned into dust. His voice was cold and no emotion could be heard:
"You mean, the Mass rebels, which had only one extremely strong man, not only destroyed the Wind Eagle Regiment that could escape from the hands of the demigod, but also destroyed the Dragon Hunter Regiment that could fight against the demigod? Where is the evidence?"
"The flag of the Mass Resistance was left at the scene, and the battle flags of the Dragon Hunting Regiment and the Wind Eagle Regiment were all broken." said the messenger.
The battle flag is the most important equipment in a regiment. It can even be said that the regiment exists only with the battle flag.
Now that the battle flags have been broken, it can be said that the Dragon Hunting Regiment and the Wind Eagle Regiment are definitely destroyed.
"Where's the body?" Brandon still didn't believe it.
If they are alive, we must see the person; if they are dead, we must see the body. After a battle, there must be corpses.
"No." said the messenger.
"If there's nothing there, go ahead and search. I don't believe we won't find a single body!" Brandon growled.
"Yes!" The messenger retreated.
In fact, they really couldn't find a single corpse, because the Dragon Hunting Regiment and the Wind Eagle Regiment had long since turned into nutrients for the Golden Scale Guards.
It is simply wishful thinking to expect to have an intact body after dying at the hands of [Shura].
The news of the destruction of the Dragon Hunting Regiment and the Wind Eagle Regiment soon spread to the imperial capital, and this news was no longer something Brandon could suppress.
Nordel III and his ministers looked solemn. They did hope that Brandon would suffer losses because of his crusade against the fake hero, but the losses were too high and completely exceeded their psychological expectations.
If they only lost a dozen people, they would be happy; if they lost fifty or sixty, they would be very happy; if their leader died in battle, they would be even happier.
But the total destruction was beyond their imagination. They dared not even dream of it because it was a beautiful dream turning into a nightmare.
If the Mass rebels can destroy the Dragon Hunters and Wind Eagles, it means they can destroy the Royal Regiment and the Hero's Horn.
The Heroic Horn Regiment is almost as powerful as the Dragon Hunter Regiment. If the Mass Resistance can destroy the Dragon Hunter Regiment and the Wind Eagle Regiment in one battle, they can also destroy the Heroic Horn Regiment.
In other words, the Mass rebels already have the power to deal a fatal blow to the Nordel Empire.
This is something that neither Nordel III nor Brandon wants to see. In their eyes, the Mass rebels are pawns, but now these pawns have become players, and more likely to become executioners. They will never allow this to happen. Destroy the Mass rebels!
Brandon and Nordel III had the same thoughts at this moment.
In terms of bloodline, Brandon and Nordel III are related to each other to a certain extent, but the Mass rebels have no blood relationship with them at all.
They fought each other, but at least the meat was rotten in their own pot. If the Mass resistance army got it, they would be wiped out.
"Everyone, what do you think about Marshal Brandon's defeat in the battle?" There was no emotion in Nordel III's voice.
"He must be severely punished!" A minister stood up and spoke in an excited tone, as if not punishing Brandon would be a huge sin.
"Dealing with a rebel party and causing such a huge loss is simply an unforgivable crime!" Another minister stood up and echoed.
Then another minister came, and then another. By now the palace was filled with voices condemning Brandon.
Nordel III looked at an old man who had not yet spoken and said, "Does the father-in-law have any suggestions?"
Nordel III's father-in-law, Prime Minister Magnus, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I believe that Brandon has caused such great losses to the Empire because of his negligence and underestimation of the enemy. Severe punishment is inevitable."
"But!" Magnus changed the subject again, "But Marshal Brandon is the only young and powerful demigod in the country. I think the best way to deal with him is to let him make up for his crime and make meritorious contributions."
"What if he can't win?" said Nordel III.
"Then send someone to supervise the battle." Magnus gave an answer that sounded like an answer to this question.
Nordell III thought this was a good answer: "Who do you think is suitable to send?"
"Of course it's Second Marshal Lolf. Although he is old, he can still eclipse an elephant a day. I believe he has enough energy to share your majesty's worries." Magnus said.
Nordel III nodded: "Okay, let's take him!"
After discussing some more things, the meeting ended.
In a room, a bare hand was holding a letter. After reading the information on the letter, the owner of the hand frowned slightly: "Demigod? The first hero is indeed worthy of his reputation. He grew into a demigod so quickly, this is a bit troublesome!"
In her eyes, Ash was a chess piece that was completely out of control. After all, divination would not work on a hero. She could no longer control Ash's actions as she wished, as he already had the ability to overturn the entire chessboard.
Damn it, she was having so much fun when something like this came along!
"Is this person coming for me?" She tapped the table with her bare hands. After all, Ash came too suddenly. She couldn't understand why a brave man suddenly came to help a group of civilians to seek justice.
Legends are legends, and it is true that heroes fought against nobles for the injustice suffered by commoners, but there has been no such history of commoners fighting against an entire country for tens of thousands of years.
That's why she thought that Ash might be coming for her. After all, her presence should be no secret among the righteous gods' chosen ones, and it's not impossible that the chosen ones ordered him to open up the situation.
No, that's possible!
Her hands suddenly clenched because her unique skill had just been activated.
Ash really came for her!
In a church, a strange woman with ears on her head and a tail hanging from her hips looked at the information and scratched her chin with her hand:
"Who is the Pillar Hero?"
