Connor paused and had to lower his head, but heard McMahon continue.
"But now I have some changes in my thinking."
The old marshal turned his head, stared at Connor and Victor, and said word by word: "Connor, from today on, you will follow that boy Shiloh and help him achieve hegemony."
As soon as these words came out, Victor and Connor were stunned. If the old marshal's words were spread, it would definitely cause another disturbance.
Could it be that McMahon saw something and felt that Shiloh had a trump card to compete with the eldest prince and the second prince for the throne?
"Father, this matter is of great importance. Don't make such a hasty decision!"
"Hmph, a hasty decision. I have made many hasty decisions during the war, but now I am not standing here properly!"
"Victor, you don't have to worry. Nothing will happen to Connor if he follows Shiloh. Even if Shiloh loses to the eldest prince and the second prince in the future, as the youngest extraordinary, Connor will definitely be fine."
"As for Shiloh... Hey, he can save Connor who is caught in the backlash of extraordinary power, and now His Majesty has pushed him to the stage at the right time... Shiloh, this kid, is smarter than we thought. Your Majesty's thigh,
It’s a good hug!”
"Father, are you saying that His Majesty has His Majesty's support behind His Highness Hilo?" Victor asked tentatively as if he had figured out something.
McMahon smiled slightly and said nothing, leaving his son to guess on his own.
But his eyes were looking at the palace from a distance.
Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we have worked together for so many years, and I always thought that I knew your temperament and methods of doing things very well, but I didn't expect that you made a move in the end that I didn't even understand.
No wonder you gave that island to Hilo. It turns out that in the end, the third prince is still the one you prefer most in your heart.
There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was extremely proud of having "guessed" the intentions of the person in the palace.
If Hilo was still in the courtyard now, he would definitely cry out that he was wronged. All this is because the old marshal overthinks it.
He was able to save Connor because he was lucky enough to have a top-notch passive magic, and he also had a magical skill like Soul Chain, which could help Connor alleviate his hidden illness, thus solving the negative consequences of the extraordinary power's backlash.
These are all benefits brought to him by the system, not given to him by his cheap dad.
As for the current earl, it is really his cheap father who has always adhered to the "wolf pack education" and hopes that his sons will fight with each other to determine the strongest wolf and choose the most suitable leader.
decision to make.
Shiloh is now being roasted on the fire. To Roddy, it just puts a fat lamb in the middle of the two wolves who are about to fight to the death, stimulating the two wolves to fight more bloody. There is really no other meaning.
.
Marshal McMahon has been on the battlefield and in officialdom for many years, and has long been accustomed to chasing rumors. In the end, this habit led him to make a wrong judgment.
But it was precisely because of this that Connor was able to continue to stay under Shiloh.
What a coincidence, I have to say that Shiloh's luck is really amazing!
Shiloh didn't know at this time that all the misunderstandings that had occurred in the process had made Kingdom Marshal McMahon look at him differently. At this time, his mind was full of thinking about who McMahon was referring to.
Is there any better person to seek refuge with than the eldest prince and the second prince?
So who could this person be?
Shiloh thought hard and lost his mind. Halfway through the journey, he suddenly heard the roar of people around him, as if he had suddenly entered a festival celebration.
He secretly murmured to himself what was going on. He opened the curtain and took a look, only to see the nobles around him looking excited and rushing towards the gate of the protective wall.
The young talent looked excited, while the aristocratic girl looked flushed, and they were still discussing as they walked.
"His Royal Highness the First Prince has finally returned to the city!"
"His Royal Highness the eldest prince is very brave. I wonder what good news he will bring back when he comes back this time!"
"Let's go! Let's go together and have a look at His Highness the First Prince!"
The crowd was surging, forcing Hero's carriage to move forward. The surrounding guards could not drive away these nobles, so they could only barely protect the formation to prevent anyone from running into Hero.
Seeing that the carriage could no longer move forward, Shiloh was curious about this famous eldest prince again, so he told him: "Forget it, I won't go back to the house, let's go see the eldest emperor... My eldest brother is so handsome."
The guard nodded hurriedly, and when the crowd finally subsided, he turned his horse's head and headed towards the gate of the protective wall.
Everyone moved forward slowly, and when they came to an alley, the carriage was completely unable to pass. There were crowds of people around, young and beautiful girls holding flowers, sachets and ribbons, and nobles and talents put on heroic and elegant warrior robes.
Strong armor, looking expectantly at the direction of the protective wall.
Shiloh got off the carriage, and with the help of the guards, he finally squeezed out a seat. He secretly sighed in his heart, he was also a prince, why was he so deserted when he returned to the royal capital, and the nobles felt as if they had seen a ghost when they saw him.
Look at the difference in treatment.
After an unknown amount of time, the gate of the protective wall slowly opened, and a group of black knights galloped wildly, waving a blood-soaked golden battle lion flag, and shouted: "Clear the road! Clear the road! The eldest prince returns to the city, clear the road
!”
This team of cavalry wears thick black helmets and bright red cloaks tied on the back. They are almost made of steel. Only the gaps are exposed at the eyes. Occasionally when their eyes glance, they uncontrollably reveal a strong murderous aura.
, quite frightening. And the black horses they stepped off were all strong and handsome, with tall bodies, and their steps were like a black lightning, and they were extremely agile.
The pair of knights ran back and forth twice to open up the road, and then immediately lined up, with a distance of 20 steps, forming a protective line.
Everyone was taken aback by the terrifying momentum of this group of cavalry, and no one dared to take a step beyond the defense line.
Finally, under the eager eyes of everyone, countless troops with neat military postures emerged from the other side of the protective wall. They were as solid as solid rocks in heavy armor. Elite spear throwers wearing spears shimmering with cold light looked solemn.
Crossbowmen, as well as knights in neat formations, marched into the upper city one by one.
These soldiers alone number no less than 500.
Finally, when a man wearing exquisite gold armor and a smile as cheerful as the spring breeze slowly appeared in everyone's sight on horseback, the entire upper city burst into neat and warm cheers.
The eldest prince of Pontos, the man who guards the northern border of the kingdom and is known as the "bloody lion", Hammond Wilf, finally appears in front of everyone.
This was the first time that Shiloh had seen the eldest prince in person. It had to be said that his handsome face and strong figure alone made him look inferior.
He is like the scorching sun hanging high in the sky. No matter where he goes, he can firmly attract everyone's attention, making other people eclipse and insignificant.
