Chapter 651: The Loyalty of the Soldiers of the Underground City. The True Thoughts of the Nobles!
I hope that this foreigner can lead the underground city to glory!
Kneeling on the ground, the captain of the guards, Nair, thought of this and expressed his submission to the other party. This attitude was so respectful.
When the guards behind saw that their captain, Nair, actually showed such high respect to this man, the man who had just killed the old king, they were instantly shocked.
“Captain Nair, he…”
One of the soldiers pointed at Nair in surprise, unable to speak for a long time.
“Hey! Hey! Hey!”
Another soldier cried out in surprise.
“You have to know that the old King Reynolds has just died. Is this still the most loyal man to the royal family?”
The surprised cry of that soldier instantly attracted even more soldiers to watch.
“No way, no way!”
“This behavior is directly thinking about the foreigner offering his loyalty. Is this operation really okay?”
“Hey, hey, hey, should we kneel as well!”
The soldiers immediately exploded in discussion.
The scene of the soldiers talking crazily also quickly attracted the attention of some nobles.
When they looked at the center of the plaza, the scene in front of them shocked many nobles!
When these nobles saw the scene of Captain Nair kneeling down, they immediately exploded!
“Hey, look!”
A noble dressed luxuriously saw Captain Nair kneeling down in front of Joelson and was instantly stunned. He hurriedly called the people around him to come over and take a look at the scene in front of him.
A few other similarly luxuriously dressed nobles beside him felt annoyed when they were being tugged at. After repeatedly expressing that they were not going to look at him, the other party continued to pursue him relentlessly. They immediately felt a wave of displeasure, as he shouted, he flung the other party’s hand away.
“Don’t touch me, idiot!”
The noble who was being tugged at looked angrily at the noble who was tugging at his clothes. At the same time, he responded with an angry expression.
They were discussing a very important issue. Should they continue to support the son of the old King Reynolds, Leighton!
Although the old King Reynolds had been completely defeated and the hearts of the people had been completely lost, Leighton was, after all, Reynolds’s son. He was the only legitimate heir of the underground city, this status made them worry even more when they were considering abandoning the old king’s old regime.
That was the problem of their reputation!
These nobles who did not hold weapons were quite concerned about their own reputation!
Just as they were intensely discussing countermeasures, a person interrupted them. How could they not feel angry!
“Look over there! It’s a major event!”
Although the noble who was sent away was not welcomed, he still said anxiously.
This matter was too important. It was so important that he had no choice but to ignore the public’s objections and remind the others to pay attention to this!
This would be a historic scene for the future of the underground city!
“What?”
Finally, under the aristocrat’s persistent persistence, the aristocrat finally looked at the scene in front of him. However, when he saw the scene in front of him, they immediately felt a wave of shock!
“Ah!”
They opened their mouths wide and looked at the scene in front of them.
“The captain of the guards who is loyal to the royal family, Nair, is actually facing that foreigner…!”
When the nobles saw the scene in front of them, they all had different thoughts in their hearts.
Some of them had a beneficial relationship with the captain of the guards. Some of them had no relationship with the captain of the guards. Some of them only knew the captain of the guards, Nair. And some of them had a superior-subordinate relationship with the captain of the guards…
No matter what the relationship between each person and Captain Nair was, they all knew that one thing was certain. After today, Captain Nair of the underground city would declare his loyalty to the outsider! This meant that the old king’s power could not be restored!
Moreover, this also meant that Captain Nair would be the first person to board the ship of the new regime of the underground city.
This kind of treatment could not help but make many of them feel extremely envious and jealous!
This was great. If they could become the first person, the treatment they would receive would definitely not be shallow!
In such a position, quite a number of them were very envious. They wanted to compete with each other to offer their loyalty to Joelson. However, the people they usually set up were not like this, due to their pride, these nobles missed the opportunity and let Captain Nair take the lead!
This Captain Nair was really observant!
Some of the nobles began to think about their choice with Captain Nair. Was this choice really right? Could this foreigner, Joelson, really lead the underground city to a glorious tomorrow, towards a spring that did not exist!
Some of the people among them had heated gazes, some lowered their heads in thought, while others were looking at Captain Nair with venomous gazes.
These people were naturally people who could not come onto the ship of the new regime. Just now, they were also the ones who had been trying to use the old king, Leighton, against the public opinion, they were supporting the king’s authority given to Leighton by the underground city’s first law code.
The reason was very simple, because they were the Elizabeth family’s ministers in the dynasty!
These ministers’ intestines were now green with regret. These people had no choice but to stand on the same side as the Elizabeth family because of their relationship in the family.
However, they knew very well in their hearts, how much the Elizabeth family had helped them in the past, and how badly they had screwed them now!
This Elizabeth family, who didn’t deserve to be provoked, had actually provoked a man whom even the underground city’s Iron-Blooded King Reynolds couldn’t defeat.
This man was simply like a god. Such a man, yet the Elizabeth family had provoked him in an impartial manner—and the way they provoked him was quite irreconcilable!
Now that the old King Reynolds had been killed by Joelson, the nobles of the Elizabeth family were very clear that the tide had passed. The current king had completely collapsed, not to mention that Leighton had gone mad. To not mention that there was no one who could defeat this Joelson now.
