I have a shelter in the last days

Chapter 265 Cold-blooded and ruthless
There was a moment of silence in the dim living room, only the crackling sound of the firewood burning in the fireplace echoed in the room.If the words of the two are spread to the outside world, it will definitely cause an uproar. Who would have thought that the southern nobles headed by the Grand Duke of Cayman would have such disrespectful thoughts towards the church and His Majesty the King?
"Don't forget, the nobles' alliance was established to protect the rights and interests of the nobles. In this situation, the nobles should unite." The Duke of Cayman paused and said in a slow tone.

"Since the conflict between the nobles and the church is irreconcilable, the struggle with the church is imminent, but I believe the church's conspiracy will not succeed!" Marquis Bugue stood up and raised his glass to the Duke of Cayman, pouring the wine into the glass. I drank all my wine.

"Then your Excellency will convey the results of the discussion between the nobles in the south to the princes in the north. According to the report I have placed in the imperial capital, there have been changes in the temple and the local church, and even the last church in the temple has changed. The elite knights—the Judgment Knights are also missing. The development of the matter is becoming more and more difficult to figure out. I will leave tomorrow to meet with the princes of the south again. In this meeting of the noble alliance, we must put aside all prejudices and unite. Otherwise, the nobles will be cornered by the church and our King." The Duke of Cayman also raised his glass and said.

"Your will is also our will. The Burger family will stand with you as the most solid ally of the Cayman family as in the past." After the Marquis Burger saluted the Duke of Cayman, he walked from the door leave in a hurry.

Seeing the back of the Marquis of Burger going away, the Duke of Cayman returned to the fireplace, picked up the old wine glass and poured himself a glass of wine, then slowly sat back on the chair, closed his eyes and muttered Said: "The church... the royal family... the noble alliance... In this unprecedented turmoil in the empire, what should my Cayman family do..."

I don't know how long it took, but the fire in the fireplace gradually went out because there was no firewood added.There was a knock on the door, waking up the Duke of Cayman who had fallen asleep at some point.

"Master, you are too tired, do you need to go back to your room to rest? Or just have another supper here?" The butler gently opened the door and asked respectfully at the door.

The Duke of Cayman did not immediately answer the butler's question. He stood up and walked to the door. The butler hurried forward and took the Duke's robe from the hanger at the door familiarly and put it on him.

"Let's go back to the room..." the old duke said, he raised his foot and continued to walk out, the butler quietly followed him one body behind him.The old Duke stopped after taking two steps, turned his head to the butler and asked, "Has Jiujiu escorted Mr. Nuo Gangde away?"

"Yes, master. The young master and Professor Nuo Gangde have already set off for a day. With their speed, they will arrive at the family's hidden stronghold in the mountains tomorrow. The young master will return in about four days." The butler followed the old prince to stop. He stopped at his footsteps, still one body behind, as precise as a mechanical clock.

"Hmm... the people who follow him are reliable, right? There have been changes in the church recently, and the Judgment Knights have also disappeared. Jiujiu must appoint the most reliable people around him."

"The ones following the young master are all elites selected by the family's knights, led by the knight commander Kou Jin. Although there are only 100 people, I believe there is no big problem in the family's territory."

"Huh?" The old duke turned around, looked at the butler with some seriousness and said, "Don't be careless! I just said that the church's Judgment Knights have been sent out, regardless of whether their target is the Cayman family or not. The guards should not let down their vigilance, let the family knights send another 1000 people to catch up."

"It's because I didn't think carefully. The young master said that it would be easier to avoid the church's eyeliner with a smaller number of people. I didn't raise any objections when I thought about operating within the family's territory." Ground, as the steward of a big family, it is his dereliction of duty to make such a mistake.

"When Jiujiu comes back, ask him to bring some gifts to the imperial capital. His Majesty the King is about to celebrate his birthday, and the Cayman family should go to congratulate him... Okay, you can make arrangements, and you don't have to follow me." The old duke He didn't continue to blame the housekeeper.

The butler stood behind him and looked at the old Duke who left alone, and replied respectfully: "Yes, sir."

It was already early morning the next day when Liana woke up from the stupor. The girl who just woke up obviously didn't fully wake up from yesterday's crisis. She got up from the ground and sat up immediately after waking up. It seemed like a frightened little animal, but found that he was sitting on the haystack covering the ground at the moment, surrounded by a pile of bonfires that hadn't completely burned out.

"Are you awake?" A voice came, and Liana turned her head to look, and saw the noble young master who had been protected by many knights before. At this moment, he seemed to have just washed up, and the tentacles on his head were still hanging A few crystal clear drops of water were hanging the water bag in his hand back to his waist.

Lianna turned her head and looked around again, seeing a mess everywhere.The broken limbs and broken arms of the Mandisia were scattered all over the place. She counted them in her heart, and there were as many as 23 Mandisias that she could identify.The knights sitting on the ground around were also injured, and one of the most serious knights even lost two arms and one lower limb.

"Ahhh..." Seeing that the knight with the broken arm was still struggling in pain even though he was pressed to the ground by the other two, Liana couldn't help but covered her mouth and let out a soft cry.

"He is a brave knight. He killed two Mandis worms by himself." The voice of His Royal Highness Ann Cayman came from the ear again, and Liana turned her head again and saw the noble young master At the moment, he was also looking at the knight with the severed limb.

"This kind of bandaging is not acceptable. He needs to be treated as soon as possible, otherwise he may lose his life due to infection!" Liana quickly got up from the haystack and said anxiously to Ann Cayman.

"Most of the knights were injured in yesterday's battle, and our medicines are very limited. At present, we can only guarantee to supply those who are able to move first. As for them, they need to wait until they reach their destination before receiving treatment." Ann Cayman glanced at them. Liana said lightly.

"Why, how could this be so!" Liana's eyes widened, and she said incredulously, "What about those seriously injured people? Just let them stand like this? You will kill them if you do this!"

"We don't have enough medicine, and we need to maintain our combat effectiveness to cope with the dangers that may occur next." Ann Cayman looked at the seriously injured knights and sighed.

"You! They were injured to protect you!" Liana was about to explode, she never thought that this handsome young nobleman could be so cold-blooded.
