The knight with brown hair and blue eyes, wearing golden armor, was looking at the river below the valley. The morning sun penetrated the hazy mist, projecting soft beams of light.
Behind the knight, stood a petite woman with a mature figure. The woman's appearance was only above average, but there was a resolute temperament between her eyebrows, which made her look heroic.
The knight closed his eyes, slowly opened them, and exhaled: "I should have guessed it earlier."
The woman didn't make a sound, she just stood quietly behind her, staring at the knight who was not burly, but looked tall in her eyes, at least, that was how he looked in her eyes.
"His Majesty Rex has blood induction. If His Majesty really dies, even if His Majesty keeps it secret out of some concerns, he will make corresponding adjustments and actions, especially for those royal heirs. In the past few months, there has been no
Now I can finally confirm the movement." Although the knight's face remained stern, his eyes showed an extremely exciting light. The decadence of the past few months was swept away, and his energy and spirit seemed to have undergone some kind of qualitative change.
"Since that person... has such a distinguished status," the woman said, "Why don't you return to the empire?"
"Ina, His Highness's talents and strategies are not something you or I can guess. What is certain is that it is related to the mysterious disappearance that year, and is likely to involve the secrets of the royal family." The knight shook his head slightly, "However, with His Highness's current strength,
, I think it won’t be long before I can appear in front of those enemies with an unimaginable appearance and regain everything I have lost.”
Ina nodded: "Indeed, that person's strength has reached the pinnacle of the Saint level. He can defeat the three strongest beast kings in the Nightmare Plain with one person. Moreover, those three beast kings also used Behemoth to transform.
.Although I did not witness the final result with my own eyes, I am almost certain that he won."
His Highness's strength...maybe more than that, Samuel added in his mind.
As a golden knight of Longhuang Empire, one of the two empires. He is also a "quasi" dragon knight who has passed the preliminary screening of Dragon Valley. He knows more inside information in some fields than a mercenary (business traveler) like Ina.
There are many more, such as news related to the Holy Mountain of Light.
In addition, being able to lift the "Blood Oath of Light" while still being safe may have transcended the realm of saints and entered the realm of demigods.
"He is probably walking an extremely difficult and dangerous road," Ina bit her lip and finally said what was in her heart: "There is a sentence. You may not like to hear it, but I still want to say that you have passed the Dragon Boat Festival now.
The primary election of Gu is valued by Emperor Rex, and the Blood Oath of Light has been released, then..."
Ina is a very smart woman. Although Lucio has been unwilling to tell anything related to the "Master", she has vaguely guessed something from some of his initial actions, including some of the subsequent reactions of the church.
"I know what you are going to say," Samuel frowned and interrupted Ina, "No matter what, Your Highness will always be my lord. The contract between me and Your Highness has been deeply embedded in the blood, even if it is blood
The power of the oath has dissipated. The glory and oath will remain unchanged, unless...my blood runs out."
Ina smiled bitterly and said: "That's the answer indeed. In fact, he saved my life, and I came here to tell it to him on the entrustment of his companion. These words just now seem ungrateful, you can tell him. If he needs it, I
His life can be returned to him at any time."
"You know I wouldn't say that, besides..." Samuel turned around and shook his head: "Anyway, this time, thank you."
Ina stared into his eyes and smiled a little reluctantly: "Should I say 'you're welcome'?"
Between some people, being polite means being unfamiliar.
Samuel did not dare to look directly into her eyes and lowered his head: "I'm sorry."
"I should be the one saying I'm sorry," Ina didn't dwell on it anymore and sighed softly: "I'm sorry that I couldn't attend your engagement ceremony last time."
"You...what are your plans for the future?"
"Recently, it seems that the Church of Light has dispatched a large army to the Field of Nightmares to confront the orcs. Even without this incident, the orcs' trade routes would definitely not be able to continue. It seems that it will not be easy to resume my father's old business.
Fortunately, I made a lot of money from the previous transaction with the orcs. I plan to try my luck in the Lan Yao Empire. If it doesn’t work, I will return to my old job as a mercenary."
"Forget about the mercenary's life of licking blood with the tip of a knife." Samuel's hand holding the long knife tightened, and finally said, "Actually, you can come to Longhuang Empire."
Ina's eyes lit up, she stared at him for a long time, and finally shook her head: "We'll talk to you later when we have a chance. I'm leaving first. Say hello to Joanna for me. I'll go see her when I have time."
After saying this, Ina strode forward without looking back. She walked so fast, fearing that she would change her mind if she walked slower. However, compared with the uneasiness when she came, I didn't know why she suddenly felt
Much more at ease.
Watching Ina go away, Samuel took a deep breath, put away his unnecessary thoughts, and slowly pulled out the long knife from the sheath. There was a fish scale-like texture on the light blue blade, which looked clumsy and clumsy.
mystery.
Feiyan, a legendary top-grade weapon, was forged by His Highness himself.
Not only the weapons, but also his strength, glory and even life were given by His Highness.
Regardless of the reason why His Highness "Arthur" broke off the blood oath, Samuel Campelot will abide by his oath, follow His Highness forever, and cut off all thorns blocking the way, even if this road
All blood will be shed.
It's just that his knife is not sharp enough and needs further sharpening. He must pass the second round of screening in Dragon Valley to become a real dragon knight!
White Star City in Starlight Kingdom.
Following the arrival of a large number of Bright Knights two days ago, another group of church clergy entered White Star City. Although the number of this group was not large, they were said to be elite referees from the Church Inquisition. The purpose of coming to White Star City was naturally to investigate.
The murder that occurred in the Palace of Light in White Star City.
This murder caused a great sensation in White Star City and surrounding areas. If the Church of Light had not blocked the news in time, it would have spread throughout the Starlight Kingdom and the entire human world.
Three days ago in the morning, dozens of corpses were found hanging in the Palace of Light Square in White Star City. Pastor Crimea, the head of the church, was among them.
The most surprising thing is not the death of Crimea, but a magical blood letter on the square.
The Scarlet Letter revealed all the crimes committed by the female priest during her lifetime. According to the Scarlet Letter, Crimea colluded with a certain thieves union in the city. A large number of young men and women were captured and used to rape her and a few cronies. The most heinous thing was
, Crimea drinks the blood released from the girl's throat every day. It is said that she can maintain her appearance and youth with the help of some secret method.
These bloody words are by no means aimless, because the basement of the Palace of Light has been dug open by the "murderer" who killed Crimea. It is full of bones, and many imprisoned teenagers have been released by others.
As for the clergy who were not involved in the evil, they were not harmed at all.
The unexpected murder finally revealed the truth about the disappearances that had plagued the White Star Territory for many years. In addition to Crimea's body, there were also accomplices and cronies and members of the Thieves Guild, plus the teenagers who had been released and returned home. The evidence was conclusive. Who
No one would have thought that this female pastor, who usually had a good reputation, would actually be a devil with bloody hands.
The impact of this incident was very bad. If the city lord had not sent troops to protect the Palace of Light in time, the Palace of Light would have been demolished into ruins by the angry people.
The archbishop of the Starlight Kingdom responded promptly and immediately sent the Knights of Light to White Star City and urgently reported to the Holy Mountain of Light, thus controlling the situation that was about to expand.
Starlight Kingdom. In a remote mansion in Venus City.
"The effect of this matter is far greater than expected." Bilia raised her glass to Shura opposite, "I have to say, your plan is so beautiful."
Shura raised his wine glass: "To our new bishop, Miss Suo Lanli."
"Solanli" is exactly Bilia's alias in the mysterious church. During the recent siege of the Black Death by the Church of Light, the original bishop Angeli "unfortunately" died. As the archdeacon, Bilia
took over the position of bishop.
Bilia smiled and clinked glasses with him: "To Your Excellency the Guardian."
A bishop is equivalent to a civil servant of the church. A guardian is a military position. Bilia has already recommended Shura. Becoming a guardian should not be a big problem.
Bilia took a sip of wine gracefully: "Why not kill those innocent people in the church? No matter whether they participated in Crimea's game or not, for us, every time we sacrifice the life of an Illuminati believer, the gods will
The strength gained will be enhanced by one point, and our contribution will also increase a lot."
"No, in this matter, we have to play the righteous side," Shura raised a finger, "It is the real 'justice', exposing the sins of the priests, not killing innocent people indiscriminately, and even punishing the guilty.
The money collected by the people was distributed to the needy poor.”
"Don't you think this kind of thing is meaningless?" Bilia frowned, "Our doctrine is to destroy, not to open a charity..."
"Have you forgotten the competition conditions for the Archbishop?"
Shura's faint rhetorical question shocked Bilia. She seemed to understand something, and her eyes flashed with a strange look.
"You are now a bishop. Although you are a new bishop, you are also one of the seven bishops in the Eastern District. You are also qualified to compete for the archbishop. Do you remember that promotion task? It has greatly weakened the power of light faith in the entire Starlight Kingdom. Right now, it is the best
The timing." Shura seemed confident, "As long as we create the same events everywhere, the faith of the Light Church will drop significantly. However, it should be noted that what we need to expose are the clergy who have actually committed crimes, because
Facts are the most irrefutable and irrefutable. Fortunately, for the decadent Church of Light, there are by no means a handful of such objects."
"That's right!" Bilia's eyes brightened, "We have to hurry up, otherwise other bishops are likely to follow our example."
"What we need to seize now is our enjoyment time, future Miss Archbishop..." Shura stood up, his smile showing a bit weird, "By the way, your lover named Robbie has been killed by me.
I have no habit of sharing women with other men."
Bilia was startled for a moment, then said nonchalantly: "That disgusting thing... Just kill it. What I admire is a strong man. If you can stay strong, I will be your most obedient woman."
and partners.”
With a coquettish smile on her face, Bilia walked up to Shura, slowly knelt down and leaned her head towards something.
