Chapter 334 The Unexpected Assassination
The inauguration ceremony itself did not have too complicated steps, there was only a pre-arranged celebratory procession and Perficott's speech on the balcony of the Lord's Mansion.
In addition, after Purficott’s speech, there will be a circus performance and a celebratory dinner, both of which are aimed at civilians and dignitaries respectively, arranged by the old butler Foster. Now, both dignitaries and common people can enjoy the joy brought by the celebration today.
For this inauguration ceremony, the old butler specially invited a famous circus from the empire and built a huge circus tent for them so that more people could see it. Their wonderful performance.
For this reason, the old butler also deliberately allowed the circus to stay for a few more days, so that the people of Chernobog could enjoy more of the circus performances and share the completion of Chernobog. The joy of celebration.
The dinner party for the nobles has also been prepared. All kinds of delicacies were transported by airship from the empire at all costs. Even the cooks were invited from Langton's famous restaurant. It is said that even Princess Anne was... Sponsored several royal chefs in order to make this banquet worthy of Purficott's current status.
In this era, entertainment activities are already scarce. The development of the industrial era has not brought many new entertainment activities to the people at the bottom. Most entertainment activities are no different from those in the feudal era.
Even affected by the brutal oppression and exploitation of capitalists, the people at the bottom who have been transformed from farmers into workers do not even have much time for entertainment, and their entertainment activities are almost non-existent.
So today’s celebration is a rare celebration and relaxation for the people at the bottom.
But before enjoying this celebration, we need to find out the pests that have infiltrated among the people.
Under the command of Claudia, the Northern Assassin Brotherhood is hiding among the crowd, looking for possible dangers.
However, they are responsible for preventing accidents and at the same time monitoring the scene so that no other suspicious elements appear.
As for those who planned the assassination? Each of them is surrounded by people from the Northern Intelligence Organization watching to ensure that nothing unexpected happens to them.
This situation is really normal. After all, everyone already knows their plan. There are insiders within the enemy. Everyone is under the surveillance of the Northern Intelligence Organization to find the person. It's really not difficult.
Under such control, there is no need to worry about Purficott's safety.
However, in order to prevent accidents, Purficott was always accompanied by four fully armed steam knights, holding tower shields tall enough to cover Purfict's entire body, guarding her at all times.
These four steam knights are very different from other steam knights. First of all, their steam knight armors are more gorgeous and smoother than the current steam knight armors of the White Bear Knights.
If the steam knights of the White Bear Knights look more like battering rams wearing heavy armor and running rampant on the battlefield, then the four steam knights next to Perfectcott at this moment look more like Like a richly decorated ceremonial knight.
However, considering that today is an important ceremonial celebration, it is not particularly strange for these steam knights to wear new ceremonial steam knight armor.
It’s just that the robes worn by these steam knights are decorated with the coat of arms of the Brandlis family, not the coat of arms of the White Bear Knights.
For knights, heraldry cannot be used indiscriminately, because it is the most intuitive manifestation of a knight's identity and honor.
Especially for knights who belong to the family, special attention needs to be paid to the usage regulations of knight's coat of arms and family coat of arms, because once they are wrong, it will be a very serious problem. The Knights of the White Bear have their own coat of arms, which is a roaring white bear head. Generally speaking, the knights of the Knights of the White Bear will not additionally decorate themselves with the coat of arms of the Brandlis family.
Because the White Bear Knight is loyal to Perfectcott, not the Brandless family.
Of course, if Perfict has descendants and still inherits the surname and coat of arms of the Brandlis family, the White Bear Knight will also be considered loyal to the Brandlis family, but that will be a long time later. .
Now speaking, the White Bear Knight is a knight of Purficott, but not a knight of the Brandlis family.
These steam knights decorated with the coat of arms of the Brandlis family can be regarded as knights of the Brandlis family.
It sounds confusing, and it doesn’t seem to be a particularly important thing, but once you understand the difference, you will find that this actually reflects a very subtle fact. Knights outside the White Bear Knights began to appear.
No matter where these knights come from, people who understand its meaning attach great importance to it and want to find out what is going on.
But before they could figure out these things, Purficott had already arrived on the balcony of the Lord's Mansion, escorted by the four knights, and began to give a speech to the people who marched to the Lord's Mansion.
"Chernorbog will be the brightest pearl in the north, and all of us will get the happy life we want here..." The content of the speech has nothing practical. After all, it is just a celebration speech, talking about some etiquette. That's about it for clichés.
However, in the middle of Purficott's speech, when she was about to shout two slogans to encourage people's support, suddenly a steam knight standing behind her left hand side suddenly moved and stepped across Bu came to her side and blocked the shield in front of Purficott.
Then a golden light spread out and turned into a bright golden ring that could cover the entire balcony, and the flying bullets were blocked by this golden ring.
The sudden situation shocked everyone, but the northern spies and Brotherhood assassins in the crowd were not stunned. They started their own actions directly, targeting those suspicious people with evil intentions. The elements are captured or subdued.
If someone resists, these spies and Brotherhood assassins will not tolerate them. If they can solve it themselves, they will solve it themselves. If they cannot solve it, they will directly call the White Bear Knight to suppress them severely.
For today's celebration, the White Bear Knights dispatched a total of 80 people. Eighty Steam Knights are scattered in all the streets and alleys of the city. It can be said that as long as you shout, a Steam Knight will immediately appear on the faces of these dangerous elements.
However, even so, a small group of dead soldiers who had no intention of leaving alive launched a suicide attack on Perficott's location, and a homemade bomb was thrown over.
But it is still a pity that since the last time someone got close to him and burned his arm with hot glue in Langton, Perfectcott has attached great importance to his personal safety.
Another steam knight stepped forward again, and another golden ring unfolded, blocking the bomb.
