Chapter 716: Guard Captain Nair’s Heartfelt Request. The Request of All the Underground City Residents!
Guard Captain Nair said with a pained expression.
“I really can’t accept your request, even if my heart really wants to help you, my lord…”
“I sincerely implore Lord Joelson, take back your order…”
Captain Nair’s voice was extrely sorrowful. Captain Nair’s request was extrely sincere.
Joelson could only feel a wave of helplessness in his heart towards Captain Nair’s request.
In fact, the other party might already have the answer to Captain Nair’s request.
That’s right, it was impossible for Joelson to agree to the other party’s request.
The reason was no other than that he had a higher goal for the future.
“I’m sorry, I really can’t be your king.”
Joelson spoke slowly.
This ti, Joelson did not use his normal voice. Instead, he deliberately raised his voice and said loudly.
“What?”
The residents of the underground city were originally celebrating and shouting Joelson’s na. However, when they heard this sentence, the smiles on their faces instantly froze.
As if a pause button had been pressed, the entire underground city froze.
In an instant, the entire underground city square was silent.
The cheers of the underground city residents were still echoing in the valley but, at this mont, they could not laugh.
All of them were stunned by Joelson’s words!
What was going on?
They saw Captain Nair suddenly kneel on the ground and did not hear what the two people on the stage were saying.
The residents of the underground city did not know that Joelson had already told Captain Nair that he did not want to beco a king and that he would entrust the future of the underground city to the captain of the guards, Nair.
As for this, because they were quite far away from the arena, they did not know anything about it at all!
Just now, when they heard Joelson say it out loud in the arena, the current scene stunned them for a mont.
What was going on?
Wasn’t Joelson the king of their underground city?
The old king, Leighton, had been killed. Why did Joelson say that he didn’t want to be king?
Everyone was stunned. They stared blankly at Joelson on the stage, staring blankly at the scene in front of them, their hearts in a daze.
In the hearts of the residents of the underground city, they all hoped that Joelson would be able to beco the new king of the underground city!
They had all witnessed how powerful Joelson was!
The forr King Reynolds was so powerful, he was a god. Joelson had used the power of a demigod to completely suppress the old King Reynolds and, in the end, he had displayed the powerful ancient dragon soul, their mories were still fresh in their minds!
In addition, not only was he powerful, but Joelson’s wise ruler style also caused them to sincerely hope that Joelson would be able to beco their king.
After all, if they were to talk about strength alone, the old king, the iron-blooded Reynolds, was also quite powerful, and he was only slightly stronger than him.
The real reason why they wanted him to beco their king was because of his wise ruling!
The old king, the iron-blooded Reynolds, was indeed powerful. Not only was he powerful, but he had also led the underground city away from the invasion of magical beasts and the risk of being eaten alive by them.
However, the old king, Iron-Blooded King Reynolds, was also very violent. His thods of ruling were rather cruel. In order to consolidate his power, his thods could be said to be rather cruel.
Those who dared to talk about the royal family, no matter what they said, would be captured and their tongues cut off!
Under such a terrifying rule, the people of the underground city were all afraid of their own safety. They were afraid that they would be killed by the temperantal kings, Leighton and Reynolds.
When Joelson let all the soldiers be acquitted, it shocked the hearts of the underground city residents!
The people below the stage hoped that Joelson could lead the underground city and beco their new king!
However, now, Joelson actually made it clear that he did not want to be the king. This was undoubtedly like a basin of cold water pouring directly on their heads.
If Joelson were to leave, they would lose a good king forever!
The people of the underground city were very confident!
This made everyone’s faces lose their luster.
Regarding this result, they felt extrely uncomfortable. So even lowered their heads and wiped their tears.
The residents of the underground city felt even more uncomfortable than the death of the old king.
As if it was the anniversary of the king’s death, the entire underground city was shrouded in a mournful atmosphere.
When the captain of the guards heard what Joelson said, he suddenly raised his head and felt a wave of shock in his heart.
The captain of the guards raised his head in a daze and gritted his teeth in silence for a while.
The captain of the guards was very clear about the purpose of Joelson telling everyone in such a loud voice.
Telling everyone in such a loud voice was equivalent to making all the underground city residents give up.
If that was the case, the residents of the underground city would give up. It would not be good for others to support Joelson as the new king. Those who had thoughts about the new king’s position would also put in their own actions to fight for the position!
This was Joelson’s plan.
Captain Nair’s heart was filled with despair. He originally wanted to dissuade the other party but he did not expect Joelson to directly announce his thoughts to all the residents of the underground city, he actually made things so decisive, not giving Captain Nair a chance to be tactful!
He directly rejected all of Captain Nair’s requests!
Guard Captain Nair raised his head and looked at Joelson with a look of anxiety.
Could it be that the underground city was really going to lose such a good king?
Could it be that Guard Captain Nair was going to inherit the position of the king of the underground city and beco an existence revered by tens of thousands of people?
Guard Captain Nair did not have the slightest bit of happiness regarding the fact that he was about to beco the king!
At this mont, the captain of the guards was filled with dead ashes in his heart, without the slightest bit of excitent.
Because in his heart, the captain of the guards knew very well that his own glory and wealth could not be compared to all the residents of the underground city. All of them who had lived here for countless generations had embraced glory!
Regarding the future of the underground city and his own glory and wealth, the captain of the guards, Nair, did not hesitate to choose the future!
