At a certain moment when he saw Barris, Soshyan seemed to have returned to the day when he first met Baron Olga, and various memories flooded into his mind.
Olga said that Barris was not like him, but in fact Soshyan felt that was not the case. At least both of them seemed to have a melancholy temperament at this age. Olga was not a brave and tenacious warrior at the beginning. In fact,
From Soshyan's point of view, the Olga he met at first was just a hesitant, desperate, lost and helpless knight. The melancholy caused by the demise of his family has been haunting him until the Dupont delin family was rebuilt.
The melancholy just disappeared.
But now the question is, Olga's depression is due to the destruction of her family in the past, what about Barris?
Because of regret or anger?
still...
fear?
He should already know the secret of his life experience. After all, many things can be hidden, but appearance cannot be hidden, and Grand Duke Olga's lover, Barris's mother, should also have told the truth.
A knight of his own family.
But as Olga said, regardless of his bloodline, he is not a strong warrior, and it is difficult to even be called qualified. What Soshyan needs is a knight who is brave and good at fighting.
But he also remembered Olga's contribution. The old knight fought for the Empire in the first half of his life, and for the Astral Knights in the second half of his life. No matter how you say these achievements can not be erased, his descendants should receive the rewards they deserve.
As if aware of Soshyan's gaze, Barris pursed his lips and lowered his head slightly.
When Soshyan came to a stop ten meters away from him, Mathias lifted his cloak and pressed the hilt of the sword with his right hand. His left hand was placed on the uppermost joint of his right arm. Then he knelt down on one knee. At the same time, the knight behind him
They followed suit one after another.
This is the highest courtesy a knight can show to his lord, representing unconditional loyalty and respect.
"Matthew Dubandrin, leading all the Knights, to the Eternal Guardian of the Throne, Champion and Herald of the Emperor, Protector of House Dubandlin, Chapter Master Soshyan Alexei the Great and Nessen
Salute to the Consul! Your arrival brings great honor to the Dupont delin family!"
Soshiyang nodded slightly.
"There is no need to perform this grand ceremony, just get up."
When Mathias stood up, Soshyan stretched out his hand and said with a smile:
"Supreme King Mathias, I haven't seen him for many years, but he still looks like the same."
Mathias held Soshiyang's hand with both hands very respectfully and said in a deep voice:
"I sharpen my spear all the time, waiting for your call. I regret my absence from the great Maelstrom Expedition. All the knights of the Dupont Delin family are very eager to annihilate all enemies of the empire under your command."
"Ha, there will be a chance."
Soshyan turned his head and looked at the towering knight mechas on both sides of the road. Most of them were horn knights. It can be seen that this classic model is very popular with the Dupont Lindlin family.
"I didn't expect that the Dupont delin family would develop so quickly..."
"Everything is thanks to the help of you and Ulan Huda."
Soshyan nodded, then walked up to Ofuer and stretched out his hand.
"Knight Oful, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, but you are still in good health."
"Chapter Commander! My will and body can still kill countless aliens and heretics. You must remember to take us to the greatest battlefield."
"I will remember."
After that, he greeted the knights of Dupont delin one by one and got to know the new knights. When they arrived at Barris, they seemed a little afraid.
"Chapter Commander! It's... an honor to meet you."
When the other person's hand rested on his palm, Soshyan sighed softly.
"The last time I saw you, you were still a young man. I heard that you now have a family?"
"Uh...well, yes, yes."
"I heard you have a son?"
"Ah, yes, yes."
Seeing the other party like this, Soshyan said nothing and looked up at the palace complex in front of him. It was very grand and magnificent, and it was several times larger than the last time Soshyan saw it.
Everything seems to be getting better...
What about the people who live here?
Accompanied by Mathias, Soshyan walked into the main entrance of the palace.
Entering the interior of the Palace of Courage, the level of luxury is astonishing. Starting from the huge square behind the main entrance, there are exquisitely carved statues, gorgeous hanging lamps, luxurious carved doors, shining crystal columns... every detail exudes
An air of nobility and magnificence.
The huge corridor is flanked by gardens full of green plants and gorgeous flowers. Red satin curtains decorate the entire structure, and the incense that floats from the huge bronze incense burner from time to time is intoxicating.
The internal scale of the palace is even more amazing. There are endless stairs leading to the towers. Each floor is wide and bright. Each courtyard has its own design. Soshyan also saw a large pond and artificial
The waterfall and the rushing sound of water seem to transport people into a fairyland.
After passing through all this, Soshyan, his guards and company commanders entered a magnificent hall. The ribs of the vault were outlined with gold foil, and the smooth mirror-like marble floor depicted the knights in war and peace.
Every aspect of the period.
In every painting, the knight mecha is invincible and indestructible.
Soshyan stared at these paintings from time to time, his footsteps echoing on the polished mirror floor.
Around it, the windowless barrier extends upward for two hundred meters, connecting with the dome. A huge hand-woven tapestry is hung on the wall. The patterns on it praise the victories won by the family and the Astral Knights:
The Zeiss' annihilation battle against the greenskins, the duel with the alien war machines on the plains of Armageddon, the recovery of the Death Star, etc.
Hundreds of lighting balls are hung on the vault of the hall, arranged in the shape of an imperial star chart. The paintings on the dome are more complicated, including wars and epics. In the center is the emperor in golden armor, and on the side are the emperors.
Shi Yang, the death angels in power armor seemed to be looking down at the people below from the dome. Various exquisite brass trumpets played solemn music. When the little angels soared under the dome, the incense burners in their hands also floated away.
It emits light smoke like gauze.
The main meeting hall of the Palace of Courage is located in the center of the palace complex. Many people have already gathered here quietly. Among them are ladies in gorgeous clothes holding folding fans, young people wearing trainee knight uniforms, and
There were some young masters and ladies in colorful clothes, as well as prominent figures on the planet, including a mechanical priest in a red robe.
They were all standing on the exquisite oak seats on both sides of the hall. There were three rows of seats and they were already full of people. However, the height of all of them was strictly controlled to ensure that no one was taller than Soshyan. This was a very
