672 The end of pampering is resentment
Without waiting three days later, Judd already knew what it would be like to be hated and despised.
The two rows of guards around were all civilians. If they could appear here, they were elites in the army, and they could become officers in the future, and from then on they would be separated from the civilian class and become small nobles.
But now, because of Judd's relationship, the city lord will never promote officers from civilians again, which cuts off their path.
Cutting off people's money and destroying their future is like killing their parents. This hatred is... big.
"Take him down and lock him up." Nadette waved impatiently. He really didn't want to see this betrayer again.
The two guards walked over, and with anger, their way of detaining Judd was very savage. Although the latter looked painful, he did not resist. Because he could not resist.
"Assh..." Nadette suddenly said: "Although you were not brought out by me, you seem to be a civilian, right?"
Assh's heart trembled. He knew that Nadette was angry at this time, for fear that he would take his anger to him, and then he would also get rid of his official position.
When he thought of this, he hated Judd, a bastard.
In Huiyin City, half of the officers with positions were from civilian origins, and almost half of the level of the Interior Hall. If the city lord removes all civilian officials because of this, Huiyin City will be completely the world of the nobles in the future.
The reason why Echo City is so prosperous and harmonious is because of the relationship between many civilian officials. Due to their origins, they will spontaneously join forces to fight against the nobles, which puts the political forces of Echo City at a delicate balance point. The nobles dare not treat the civilians of Echo City as dogs, otherwise a large number of civilian officials will cause trouble.
If there are no civilian officials in the future, then the lives of the residents of Huiyin City will gradually become dark.
"Yes, I'm from a civilian." Assh smiled with difficulty.
Nadette looked up at the roof as if he was wandering around the sky, and said to himself, "You said, am I too nice to people sometimes?"
Assh didn't know what the city lord meant, so he could only follow the words and said, "City lord, you have always been kind."
"I don't mean that." Nadette thought for a moment and said, "The two daughters of the Lexington family are beaten and scolded every day and praise them occasionally. But under this kind of education, the two daughters are very sensible, helping the family work, working hard, and being very well-behaved."
"I never beat and scold Lux, but she deceived me instead. Judd is the same. I almost treated him as half of my son. The real power in the army is the greatest except me. He is actually cheating me and trying to betray me."
"Does the better you treat a person, the more they will take it for granted? They may even feel that you are unrespected and will want to steal your wealth and status?"
There is no systematic psychology in this world, as well as research on character growth. But based on his own experience and experience, Nadette also felt some straightforward psychological problems at this time.
Assh naturally did not dare to respond. Although he was not trained by Nadette like Judd, he felt that the city lord could make him a civilian officer who had real power, which was a great gift in itself, and he was very grateful to the city lord.
"Only those who do not know how to be grateful will betray you, the lord." Assh said, "Judd is only a single person among the civilians."
"It's indeed an individual, he is the only civilian I personally teach."
Nadette looked at Assh with a reverent look on his face and thoughtful.
The fact that Judd was locked up soon spread throughout the city. Not long after, three groups of nobles came, scrambling to defy Nadette the hidden points of the heretic arbiter and the paladin.
After sending these people away with kind words, Nadette first broke out in a cold sweat on his back, and then sneered.
If he hadn't noticed it and received a reminder from Cook and Heidi, he might have really suffered a defeat this time. If Judd led his army to encircle the heretic arbiters and paladins as planned, he would have encountered rebellion.
The most important thing is the three immortals... If they hadn't been instigated, Judd would not have had any wrong thoughts.
After the incident, we will deal with the three of them.
Nadette, who had put hatred in his heart, began to mobilize his troops to the northern suburbs.
He hoped that Cook and Heidi could secretly rescue Lax, but he also knew that this hope was very small. The Paladin...is not a vegetarian.
The morning of the agreement was clear, and when Tina and Ronald came out of the sewer, they found themselves surrounded by an army of at least two thousand people.
But there was no surprise on their faces. Looking at these troops, they seemed to see a background board.
In fact, they already knew that they were surrounded. The army of more than 2,000 people was mobilized, and they were underground again. How could they not hear the rumbling sound?
Beta and Heidi had already hid far away, hiding in the woods more than 200 meters behind the army.
As a ranged profession, Archer has a good eye. Heidi stood on a high branch, looking at the situation ahead through the gaps between the branches and leaves in the canopy, and kept reporting to Beta: "They came out, and I also saw Lux. Her face was...so swollen, haha."
In fact, she didn't need to report at all. Beta had already connected Joan of Arc's vision at this time and could see the situation ahead clearly from the sky.
At this time, he was even a little stunned: The paladin had a good face, and Joan of Arc flew low... Isn't this Tina?
What made Beta even more speechless was that Tina's strength at this time was actually lv13.
It seems that the effect of the spring of light on the paladin was much greater than he had imagined.
The paladin at level 13 of lv13, plus five heretic arbiters, is a bit unrestrained.
Beta sighed in his heart. It is impossible for Tina's six heretic arbiters to kill two thousand troops, after all, there are physical limitations. But it is not too difficult for them to break through.
Moreover, if you are bolder, you can start the beheading tactic, attack Nadette directly, and penetrate the central army, which is also a good choice, because once the leader dies, the army will definitely collapse in morale and flee everywhere.
"Hedi, hurry to the city lord immediately and make him more careful. If possible, give up Lux."
"Why?" Heidi was a little puzzled. Although she didn't like Lux very much, if she said this, the latter would definitely be angry.
"I've seen that paladin before, she's very strong."
"Even if you and I can't suppress her?" Haidi was a little disbelief.
"Above masters, close to legend." Beta sneered: "We two professions who have not reached the master level, to suppress a paladin who is known as the strongest profession, the Goddess of Light, and close to legendary level. Are you thinking too much?"
Haidi's face turned pale, and he immediately turned over and rushed towards the military formation.
At this time, Nadette was riding on the horse, looking coldly at the six people less than a hundred meters ahead, and then at Lux who was carrying them on their shoulders, with a raging anger hidden in his eyes: "Now, you can return my daughter."
Tina used a cleaning technique to remove the sewer smell that did not exist on her body, and then said lightly: "How are you thinking about the Atonement Book?"
"I said, return Lux, or you will die."
Tina looked at the other party in surprise, then looked at the soldiers around her. She knew why the other party suddenly had confidence. Then, she smiled slightly, her smile was like a flower, but also with a faint mockery.
Ronald laughed a few times, threw Lux into the ground, and then stepped heavily on her left finger.
The severe pain woke Lux up from his coma. She opened her eyes and wailed twice, and then saw the surrounding situation clearly, she shouted excitedly: "Father, save me, kill them, save me, I want these people to die, I want them all to die... Ahhhh!"
There were another scream, and Ronald's feet were a little harder. Tina was just an ordinary person. Her fingers were immediately trampled to the point of being fresh, and the bones of the forest were exposed.
Listening to his daughter's constant screams, Nadette's anger was almost making him lose his mind. He shouted viciously: "Do you abuse a girl like this and show your identity to you? This is how the Saint-like family acts?"
"It's so kind to compare to what your daughter does." Ronald didn't think it was moving, and he continued: "It's easy to ask me to let her go. You cut off your right arm and give up the position of the city lord. I can guarantee the safety of your father and daughter."
"I witness this contract with the identity of a paladin, and this is your Atonement Book."
Nadette said gritting his teeth: "The price of the Atonement Book is too expensive, it's impossible."
"Lux, look, your father doesn't seem to want to save you." Ronald stepped hard, and he was wearing iron boots, and all the finger bones of Lux's left hand were crushed.
Lux was so painful that it was like a fish that had reached the shore, and her body kept rolling and swinging on the ground, but she couldn't faint because Ronald gave Lux a sober technique very bad intention.
Seeing his daughter in such pain, Nadette wanted to issue an order for the army to attack, but he was afraid that the other party would kill her daughter, so he had to endure it.
More than two thousand people watched Lux rolling around on the ground... Only a few people couldn't help it, most of them had a happy expression.
The city lord's daughter is a demon... Except for a few people in Echo City, most people know about this in private.
Including civilians.
Finally, Lux's pain was relieved a little. She looked at her bloody left hand, howled a few times, then looked at Nadette and shouted heart-wrenchingly: "Father, promise him, I feel so painful... You cut off your hand, just use magic... It's okay, promise him, I don't want to suffer anymore... I am your daughter, promise him."
There was already a faint hatred in the look of Lux looking at Nadette.
Why don’t you save me, why don’t you agree to him, just one hand... You can grow back with magic. Aren’t you my father? Shouldn’t you spoil me and love me at all times?
You liar... You scumbag, I have been abused like this. If you don’t give up everything to save me, what are you thinking?
ah?
Nadette also saw the hatred in his daughter's eyes. At first he thought the hatred was targeting the heretic arbitrator, but then he found that his daughter's eyes were staring at him tightly, and she hated... herself!
Why? Nadette felt cold in his heart, and then Judd's appearance appeared before him, overlapping with his daughter.
It's really ridiculous!
The two people he valued the most hated actually hated him. Nadette smiled sarcastically, he was already planning to attack.
As for her daughter... if she had lost her position as the city lord and had a broken arm, she would definitely not live long, let alone her. A large number of nobles secretly wanted them to die.
But before that... he suddenly said to Tina: "Dear lady, I can make concessions or step down as the leader, but I can't do it. In addition, I have something I want to ask about."
Tina raised her eyebrows slightly: "Please say."
"You said you don't participate in the struggle between the Popes and the Saints, right?"
"Yes." Tina nodded.
"Then I'll ask you for something." Nadette pointed to the heresy arbitrator: "Is it okay for me to accept your judgment when my grudges and theirs are cleared? Otherwise, in my opinion, you are Ming helping the Saint."
Tina thought for two seconds and said, "Okay."
Then take two steps back.
Ronald frowned: "Madam, he is absent from us, please don't be fooled."
"I am neutral. This time I come to Sound City to find out the death of the female parishioner." Tina said in a calm tone: "I will not participate in the matter between the Pope and the Saint."
Hearing these words, the calmness on Ronald's face disappeared, and it was replaced by a constipated expression.
If he was a player, he would definitely scold his teammates, but the problem is that Tina never treats them as teammates.
Nadette was so happy when he saw this scene.
In fact, he really didn't dare to attack the Paladin. The heretic arbitrator divided the faction and killed it, and at most he could settle it. But if he killed it or injured the Paladin, it would be a big deal.
Lux was still screaming over there, shouting for his father to save her. Nadette tried his best to pretend that he didn't hear it.
Just as he was about to order the entire army to attack, Heidi suddenly squeezed to him.
Because Haidi often goes to and from the city lord's mansion and military camp, smiling as everyone recognizes her, she can squeeze into the army.
If Beta had dared to squeeze in like this, he would have been attacked long ago.
Heidi said a few words in Nadette's ear, and then Nadette's face changed, and he looked at Tina standing in the distance with a frightened look.
He was glad that he had just used rhetoric to "take" Tina out of the team of heretic arbitrators.
