Just as Kant's troops were searching for the Dark Red Sect and hunting down the believers, the news of victory quickly spread throughout the entire East County territory along with many secret operations secretly observed in the distance.
After all, this battle is the largest battle since the last invasion of the Yinpan Kingdom.
The expected result did not appear.
Very unexpected.
Because in this battle, even if the Dark Red Sect showed absolute strength, which could instantly defeat the conventional troops, they were still defeated in the face of Baron Kant's troops.
Even the legendary, mythical creatures appeared, and it was difficult to recover from the decline.
Ultimately defeated.
Now.
Even Death Penalty Mountain, the headquarters of the dark red sect, was captured.
A large amount of black smoke appeared on the top of the death penalty mountain. It was a building built by the Dark Red Sect. After being ignited, the thick black smoke emitted was like a black column of smoke, rising straight in this windless weather. to the sky.
Even at a distance of several kilometers, they can be clearly seen, as if it were wolf smoke.
This is also proof.
The Dark Red Sect has declared its destruction.
Some aristocratic forces that were secretly manipulated or cooperated by this sect already understood in their hearts that this sect, which was once able to rival the lords and nobles, can now be swept into the dust.
And although their hearts are afraid of Kant, the new great nobleman, they are more eager to move.
That's right, just around the corner.
The Dark Red Sect was destroyed.
However, the legacy left by this former power is enough to satisfy everyone.
For example, the caravans controlled by the Dark Red Sect, the warehouses in the city, the piles of goods and the large amount of silver coins stored in certain places will all become fat that the nobles can plunder.
Even if there are still a small number of believers or fanatics of the Dark Red Sect.
But so what
This force has been destroyed.
Even the dreaded demons of legend and myth were defeated.
Ordinary people like them, believers who can be easily killed with a long sword, will definitely not end well in the end. Without Kant's notice, these nobles will do it themselves in order to cover up some dark sides.
Sometimes when a certain force is defeated, it may not be the hostile force that persecutes it first.
But the original partner!
especially…
The so-called partners who cooperate entirely with interests involved!
These greedy nobles were originally secretly dissatisfied with the dark red sect's hand reaching into the aristocratic system, but because of the strength of the dark red sect and those crazy believers, they reluctantly tolerated it.
It's like pinching your nose to admit this fact.
It's different now.
Now that the Dark Red Sect is destroyed, no one needs to continue to be patient.
Take back what originally belonged to you, and also take back what did not belong to you.
Taking advantage of a huge corpse to fall down, plundering fat and water on this corpse, satisfying oneself, and leaving enough fat and water to last for a lifetime, that is the maximization of profit!
As for the Baron Kant, a new and powerful nobleman in the East County.
It doesn't matter!
That is the second son of Cameron the Lion.
He is also the nephew of Agatha, Countess of East County.
Is a member of the royal family.
It is also a part of the noble system!
Compared with the Dark Red Sect, an organization independent of the aristocratic system, Baron Kant, who looks extremely powerful and has extremely sharp soldiers, is very easy to accept.
After all, this is my own person!
Even if there is an accident.
Actually.
It is also a contradiction within the Lion Principality.
The conflict between the royal family over the succession has nothing to do with nobles like them.
Standing on the right team can certainly make the family more prosperous, but even if they are on the wrong team, at some critical juncture, it doesn't matter if they stand on the same team again, even if they stay on the wrong team all the time, it's fine to admit their mistakes.
The nobles are all related to each other, and it is the close connection brought about by marriage.
Scroll up.
It's all about kinship.
Therefore, the massacre of the family is impossible to happen in the Lion Principality.
Therefore, they felt at ease. No matter who inherited the title of Grand Duke of Lion, for nobles like them, it was not much different from usual.
The Principality of Lions still needs nobles like them to help manage it. This is the noble system!
A bloody massacre began on Death Penalty Hill.
And then.
In just three to five days.
Inside the East County Territory, another counter-revolutionary campaign that seemed to sweep through all the nobles also began.
Crowds of soldiers rushed into the originally hidden and brilliant buildings, and burned all the grotesque statues, and even those guys in black robes who seemed to be priests were thrown into the fire and burned to death.
Some believers seem to be resisting, and more certain guys are fleeing.
But there is no way.
It's like catching a turtle in a urn.
Soldiers in fine armor, almost smelling hounds.
House after house was searched, and any believers who dared to stop them were stabbed to death without mercy. Even if there were some fellow soldiers who resisted, the final result was that they were trapped to death in certain places.
The entire East County Territory has become a mess, even those merchants from the Reese Niston River have noticed.
This is the chaos that war brings!
That's right.
This can be called war.
It is the war against the remaining dark red sect by all the nobles of the Eastern County Territory!
The bloody massacre continued until the end of the month. Thousands of people were almost executed in the entire East County. In the city of East County alone, thousands of corpses were dragged out. They were all decent people who had a head and a face.
The only port of Dongjun City that was not affected, many corpses were found in the river ditch.
But at the same time.
The nobles acquired a great deal of property.
Piles of silver coins and golden eagles appeared in the official residences of the nobles.
Even some speculators have obtained rich returns. In this war, they got what they wanted, and they also got the various positions that were vacant.
The impact of this turmoil is that from top to bottom, almost everything has been cleaned.
Nobles don't care too much.
It even evolved into an eventual purge against the enemy.
Of course, in the eyes of those nobles, this was also the madness before the real chaos, so under the orders of several top nobles and the controller of the East County, Countess Agatha, it gradually calmed down.
Dongjun City is faintly independent from the Xiongshi Principality, but it is definitely not a chaotic world without laws.
The nobles represent the law.
They also don't want to see chaos happen.
Now they are very full, so they don't want anyone to make trouble in the next digestion process and make them fall into some difficulties, which is absolutely not allowed!
