In the eyes of later historians, the year 320 of the Redemption Calendar was a period of particular interest to them and worthy of in-depth study.
Especially in March and April of this year, the series of events that happened in the human world are recognized by historians as the true beginning of that magnificent era, with the theme of knights and war, depicting the endless suffering of mankind.
The symbol of the legendary scroll.
That year, the Feile Empire in the West had begun a new round of offensive against the Saint Solan Empire.
On that day, Peter I, the most powerful emperor in Philip's history, announced an all-out attack order to the tens of thousands of Philip's soldiers and people gathered below from his towering castle platform. At that time, Philip's
Fanatic cheers for “Long Live the Martyr Empire” resounded throughout the night.
Corresponding to this cheer, it is the sound of horns in the boundless wilderness, the sound of countless Fei Lie's iron hooves crossing the border, the footsteps of Fei Lie's army advancing on the front line, and the sound of Saint Solan being swept away.
There were screams in the village, the sound of hacking and the sound of houses collapsing in the fire.
In just a few days, the fighting in the northwest, west and south of St. Solan became intense. The two warring parties fought on a long front. Although in the first half of April, the main forces of both sides had no intention of launching a decisive battle.
, however, the small-scale battle still caused a large number of casualties.
In the north, the Pompeii Empire began to quietly accumulate heavy troops on the border. On the one hand, it was eyeing the two neighboring countries in the south that were fighting fiercely. On the other hand, a large number of Pompeii knights were under the call of the Holy See. Or
Join a team, or travel alone, through the deserts, black seas or bitter cold Cytonia in the eastern part of the empire. Join the ranks of the Third Eastern Expedition and launch an attack on the chaotic land in the east.
As for Langris, the most powerful principality in the Pompeii Empire, in this noisy April, Augustus, who was promoted to Paladin at the age of 22, became a well-deserved star in the human world. Beyond the continent, including the three royal families
All the old nobles have unparalleled prestige.
The three major royal families, the Holy Lady's Palace and the Holy See, as well as the special envoys sent by the most powerful people in the world, almost blocked the city gate of the capital of the Principality of Lanlith, known as the City in the Clouds.
Regardless of whether these congratulators were sincere or fake, they had to respectfully offer congratulatory gifts and express their respect for this talented person under the proud gazes of the Paladins, Sword Masters and Dharma Gods in the room full of Golden Dragon Family.
The family's reverence and envy.
In the east, the demonic attack on Farrington Fortress is still continuing.
This is not something to make a fuss about. For three hundred years, the war between humans and demons has never stopped. The hatred between the two sides cannot be washed away even with all the water in the endless sea. This is a continuous war.
The race war that has lasted for four hundred years has ended. Either you die or I die.
The Broken Sky Mountain Range, which cannot be crossed by birds, does not give the demons many choices. The only way to the human world, apart from Farrington, is the Holy Light City in the north.
Holy Light City is located in the northern part of the Duantian Mountains. The entire city is built of white boulders. It stands on the 30,000-meter-high Holy Light Peak, blending in with the endless white snow. Legend has it that it is the entrance to the Kingdom of Heaven and the Holy See.
A holy place to serve the gods. A whole order of Holy See Knights is stationed on it.
To ordinary people, the Holy Light City far above the white clouds is mysterious. They have no way of confirming whether it is the entrance to the Kingdom of Heaven. However, everyone knows that two hundred years ago, there was a demon master who came from Duantian.
Go up the other side of the mountain range and accidentally break into Holy Light City.
After killing it, the Holy See Knight spent three years to find the path that the demon master came from.
This news caused a panic at the time. However, people soon discovered that it was not even possible for the demons to use the path that only two people could walk parallel to climb to the top of the 30,000-meter mountain to invade the place of salvation.
Rather than that, it would be easier for them to just knock down the Duantian Mountain Range.
Therefore, for three hundred years, Farrington has been the only option for the Demons to attack. Attacking Farrington Fortress once a year has become a tradition for the warlike race of the Demons. Just like humans do it every year during festivals
Some kind of ritual or activity, whether meaningful or not, will be carried out year after year.
However, the news coming from Farrington this time seems to be more serious than in previous years. The battle has been going on for a whole month, and the demons have left tens of thousands of vassal races and thousands of bodies of demon warriors under the fortress.
, and there is still no sign of withdrawing troops.
East, west, north... events that will affect history are happening or about to happen in every corner of the Redemption Continent, but what interests historians the most is the south.
In the South at that time, except for the war in Lulian, there was nothing worth writing about. The reason why historians are interested is because there, a country boy behaved in an almost arrogant manner.
, appeared in people's field of vision.
If they had to define him, historians would characterize him as a small figure at that time. At least in the eyes of people at that time.
Even if he was a hero in the Battle of Medin City, even if he was a princess's guardian knight, even if he beat up a princess and caused a dispute, at that time, neither his own poor strength nor the people around him
In terms of strength, he is not even qualified to rank high in this empire.
Many people know his name, but that doesn't mean they pay enough attention to him.
And only historians know how significant this young man’s appearance was to that great era, and only they know how much history after that was influenced by this little man and how much he was at the crossroads.
Change the direction of progress.
When they look back through history, they can't help but marvel at the magic of fate. They can't help but wonder what history would have been like without him at that time.
Of course, those speculations are unfounded. History is history, and countless accidents are connected to become inevitable, and they are finally fixed and cannot be changed.
This makes everyone who examines that period of history feel happy.
They would always read and reread the story about that guy whose name everyone later knew happened during that period. They would watch with relish how embarrassed he was. How he resisted in that strict hierarchical world and how he made trouble.
.
At that time, his name was still Roy.
In the future, people will be familiar with his name prefixed by his nickname.
Demon King Roy.
………………
………………
Roy's recent days can only be described as miserable.
Since he completed the training course that took other students nearly twenty days to pass in one day, Kameni upgraded the intensity of his training without saying a word and sent instructors to take turns supervising the training.
His morning running distance requirement is fifty kilometers, and each basic training of swordsmanship is done three hundred times. Fighting Qi training is sixty weeks, and the battle ring control training is punching a thousand times, kicking a thousand times, and also
It is necessary to add a basic fighting skill during prayer and the learning of a basic martial arts.
It sounds like these data are not much more than other students. However, this is all done while wearing an upgraded version of the 300-pound training suit.
In the past few days, when the students of Team E saw Roy, it was like seeing a turtle blending into the crowd. Every day they saw him wearing thick training clothes. He was running slowly but sweating profusely, with his face red and his neck red.
The thick one wielded a fifty-pound sword and practiced basic swordsmanship skills.
Often everyone has finished training for a long time, and he is still struggling with gritted teeth.
And around him, there will always be one or two teachers with cold faces staring at him. If he is not satisfied at all, they will kick him or slap him as hard as he wants.
"Did you see it? This is the result of disobedience. Practice hard!"
This is what the teachers like to point at Roy and scare everyone. It has to be said that with such a living and tragic example beside them, no matter how unruly and prickly the head is, he becomes more honest. Looking at Roy every day, everyone
I feel that the atmosphere in Team E is not much better than that of the Inquisition.
However, what the students didn't know was that this kind of training was only part of Roy's one-day training plan.
After completing the training prescribed by Kameni, Roy will immediately be picked up by Steve or Hoff who are waiting aside, and go to the dark camp to start another stage of training.
In the past few days, Roy has met several members of the dark camp.
There are not many members in the secret camp, only about 30 people in total. In the Munich branch, which has more than 400 teaching staff, including bachelor of affairs, they do not even account for 10%. But as long as you look carefully
Looking at the information of these thirty people, you will understand how powerful the dark camp is.
Most of these people have been in school for more than fifteen years. The shortest time in school is more than ten years. Some are the ace instructors of the Knight Brigade, some are magicians doing research in the magic tower, some are extremely powerful bachelors of affairs, and some are the school's top teachers.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Guards or a senior official of the College Management.
It can be said that the most elite people in the academy are all in the secret camp. And these people's subordinates have their own confidants and loyalists. The intricate forces are spread throughout every corner of the academy.
In Steve's words, without the recognition of the dark camp, no one can control the Munich branch. Not even the main camp. The situation is desperate, and the dark camp can completely turn the Munich branch into a
An empty shell. It is also capable of rebuilding a branch in any place.
The life of the members of the dark camp is no different from that of other people. Except for the people in the dark camp, it is difficult for outsiders to imagine that such a secret organization exists in this academy.
What surprised Roy the most was the underground base camp of the dark camp.
The base camp is located directly below the Fantasy Tower.
Three hundred years ago, there was no Munich branch, and the original function of the Magic Tower was just a magic tower used to fight against monsters. There were only a few underground shelters.
As the role of the fantasy tower was discovered, people began to build colleges around the fantasy tower since the Roman Dynasty. As time went by, the above-ground buildings were either demolished due to aging or destroyed by war, but there were many underground refuge rooms and storage rooms.
and passages have been preserved.
After the Munich branch was established, six knights' castles, a magic academy and other dormitories, libraries, training rooms, living buildings and other buildings were successively constructed over the past thirty years, and the underground part was also expanded to its current size.
Twenty years ago, after Gustas took office as the dean, he began to open up these underground spaces and seal the connections with the above-ground buildings, eventually turning them into the current location of the Dark Camp headquarters.
The base camp is centered on the Fantasy Tower. It is a circular area with six inner and outer floors and crisscrossed passages, like a maze. The entire area has hundreds of rooms of various sizes. For more than ten years, in order to protect this place, Gustas and others
Various institutional restrictions and defensive magic circles have been set up in the passage. If there is no authorization magic pattern card for the secret camp, even if the army is used to attack, it may not be possible to get in.
Such strict protection is naturally because there is something worth protecting.
Roy didn't know how many secrets were hidden here, but he had seen a warehouse that stored a large number of precious magic cores, bones, herbs and various materials; he had seen the secrets of precious martial arts and magic scrolls.
The library; I saw the magic tower full of magic; I also saw eight luxurious fantasy tower rooms.
There was no need to visit the entire dark camp. Just the members of the dark camp and the rooms he had seen were of immeasurable value. It could be said that the dark camp was the essence of the entire Munich branch.
After entering the dark camp, the first thing Roy had to do was to meditate in the fantasy tower training room specially prepared for him by Steve.
While training in Team E wearing a suit that isolates spiritual power, his fighting energy would cycle through depletion and regeneration more than a dozen times every day. This made his meditation efficiency particularly high.
If it was the same as his previous training in the dormitory of Building C, Roy could be sure. Even if he endured it, the guy from the Lord of Judgment would destroy the spiritual power level of the Fantasy Tower. However, it was different now.
When practicing in the tower room, the practitioner himself is part of the fantasy tower.
Although Roy consumed a lot of spiritual energy, the frenzy of heaven and earth energy triggered by his judgment during meditation was of great help to the Magic Tower in absorbing and transforming energy. The operation efficiency of the Spirit Gathering Array was much higher than usual. For several days
, the spiritual power level of the Fantasy Tower not only did not decrease, but actually increased slightly.
Of course, for Roy, neither rising nor falling should worry him. The most important thing for him now is to seize the time to improve his strength.
Just a few days ago, Mo Ya sent people from the imperial capital to report that the knights gathered at Prince Anthony's Palace had dispersed under the mediation of the chief heraldry officer of the Heraldry Academy, and each of them returned to their respective families.
On the surface, a possible internal conflict crisis within the royal family has been eliminated, and the situation in the imperial capital is calm. But Roy, who received Mo Ya's secret letter, knows very well that the royal family and Princess Elizabeth have reached an agreement. From now on, the focus of the issue will no longer be
The imperial capital is in Munich.
On your own body!
Regarding the current situation of the royal family, Mo Ya had already told Roy the truth in the woods. Roy was also very clear about the role he played.
During the period when Edward I was in trouble both internally and externally, and Alessia was facing pressure from the Holy Lady Palace, she was a shield in front of the royal family. How much time the royal family could get to solve the problem depended on how long it could stand up against the revenge of the Golden Dragon Family.
for how long.
Mo Ya wrote in the letter.
"In order to avoid internal strife within the royal family during this critical period, the chief heraldry officer agreed to the request that the princess's family come forward to challenge you and wash away the shame. However, because the whole incident was instigated by Scarlett, and the challenge and
The bets are all in line with the tradition of knights. Therefore, the chief heraldry officer warned the princess that this is the Saint Solan Empire, and all means of solving problems must comply with the traditions of knights and the rules of the nobility...
He warned the princess, although you are not Princess Aleshia's official guardian knight now, the canonization back then was not a child's play. The royal family will recognize the effectiveness of the canonization with the most serious attitude in the past, present and future, so you should
Protected by the Royal Order of the Knights and the Ministry of Inspection.
As a student of the First Training Camp, you are protected by the First Training Camp.
As subjects of the Principality of Lullian and heroes in the Battle of Meiding City, Archduke Adolf and Miss Sophia voluntarily issued documents declaring that you are under the protection of the Principality of Lullian.
As the friend and savior of Philip, the heir to the Red Leaf Knights, the Red Leaf Knights declare that you are protected by the Red Leaf Knights..."
Moya wrote at the end of the letter: "The chief heraldry officer told the princess that your protector and all the nobles of the empire will be the witnesses of this challenge to prevent any dishonorable means. The Langris family can initiate
A fair challenge and demanding stakes, but also the only way to resolve the issue of Scarlett's identity.
Finally, both parties agree that you will not be disturbed in the first training camp. Challengers are not allowed to enter the first training camp and force you to accept the challenge. At the same time, you will be absolutely protected in Munich. Any opposition to
Your attacks will be regarded as breaking the bottom line of declaring war."
This is the final result of the balance in all aspects of the imperial capital.
At the end of the letter, Mo Ya's advice was - "Stay in the academy. Don't even step out!"
Roy sincerely felt that this was a good idea!
However, this does not really solve the problem. This is a war for others to see. Whether it is the Lanlith family trying to force the Solan royal family to submit or the royal family trying to truly establish the majesty of the royal authority in this war, they need to
Prove yourself in front of the audience.
The audience is the Holy Lady Temple, the nobles, people and soldiers of the Saint Solan Empire.
Moreover, based on Roy's understanding of the Golden Dragon family's tyrannical reputation, he did not think that the other party would obey the rules honestly. Judging from the subtext outside the content of this agreement, he would be outside the first training camp.
Face the opponent's challenge. And outside Munich, you may have to face a direct attack from the opponent.
Therefore, no matter what, improving one's own strength is the greatest asset to save one's life.
…………
…………
Roy stood under a huge old tree. He was like an ant standing at the feet of a mammoth.
A gust of wind blew by, and the leaves swirled, falling like rain from the canopy of the ancient tree that blocked the sky. It was a colorful leaf, shaped like a maple leaf, with crystal-like jade veins and almost transparent leaves.
The noodles submerged into the soil as soon as they hit the ground and disappeared.
Roy raised his eyes and saw the rolling mountains in the distance. Countless identical ancient trees, like countless towering giants, occupied his entire line of sight and could not be seen to the end. The scene was so spectacular that he could only open his mouth in silence.
, my blank mind couldn’t think of any adjectives.
A graceful figure passed in front of Roy like the wind.
It was a female elf wearing a goose-yellow tights, with a pair of pointed ears, a beautiful and solemn face, and a pair of green and mysterious eyes like a cat.
She ran, her long black hair flying in the wind. When she passed a huge tree root protruding from the ground, she barely exerted any force on her feet, and her body bounced up lightly. Due to the inertia of her rapid running, she appeared in a straight line.
The body suddenly paused briefly in the air.
Then, I saw her figure flickering like a candle in the wind, and her whole body suddenly turned into an arrow and shot out. In the blink of an eye, she was already a hundred meters away!
Jumping in the clouds!
Roy's mouth, which was already open, was now big enough to fit his fist.
This was the first time he saw Bow Spirit.
Since the evolution of Judgment, the main spirit has been replenishing the energy consumed by evolution. The bow spirit realm that should have been opened long ago has never appeared. For several days, he has been training with the ax spirit and sword spirit until
Today, when he entered meditation again, he found himself in this strange place.
The reason why he recognized Bow Spirit at a glance was because Roy had already learned about the race and identity of his new mentor from the Sword Spirit and Ax Spirit before.
However, he never dreamed that Bow Ling would bring him such a big surprise just after he appeared.
The reason is simple, because this magical footwork called Cloud Step has long been lost even among the elves who are its creators.
The martial arts system of elves is very different from that of humans.
Although they all practice fighting spirit, elves are not good at fighting on horseback. Ordinary elves are slender and have relatively little strength. Even if they have completed the transformation into butterflies and have fighting forms, their racial characteristics are destined that they cannot rely on strength to compete with other races.
Confront head-on.
Their trump card is speed!
It is said that after an elf is promoted to a paladin, he is far more difficult to deal with than a human paladin. His speed will reach a terrifying level. Being an enemy against him is like being against an omnipresent lightning.
In addition to the elves' own talent, the most important thing about the speed of the elves is the footwork that this race has continuously evolved in battle for thousands of years.
Just like the magic of humans, the casting skills of dwarves, the mechanism skills of dwarves, the shamanistic skills of orcs, the horse-taming skills of barbarians and the secret evolutionary skills of demons, the archery and footwork of elves are also unique in the world.
Relying on footwork, they can easily jump to high places, jump and run on treetops, maintain balance on vines, catch up with a flying arrow in an instant, and dodge deadly arrows in battle.
Attack and hide in any terrain, including deserts and swamps.
It can be said that their footwork is the source of their strength.
As humans who are similar to elves in many places, we can covet the elves' footwork. After all, knights do not always live on horseback. But in non-mounted battles, they have a
The wizard's footwork is the magic weapon to win.
However, it is difficult for anyone to succeed. Even Roy, who has lived in Lakeside City for a whole year, only learned some basic footwork skills. Moreover, most of them were in chasing and playing with the elf children.
It was something he learned naturally. Even so, it already made him capable of hunting in the jungle.
You can imagine how surprised Roy was when he saw the bow spirit's footwork. Without even a second's thought, he chased after him.
Fortunately, Gong Ling had no intention of leaving the forest and running far away, otherwise Roy would not be able to catch up. In the eyes of ordinary people, his speed may be fast enough to rival a horse, but with Gong Ling
In comparison, he felt as slow as a snail.
Roy found that the Bow Spirit would stop from time to time, check the ground and listen. This familiar posture that he had used countless times made him understand that the Bow Spirit was chasing its prey.
This guess was soon confirmed with the appearance of demons all over the mountains and plains.
However, this is not a one-sided pursuit, but a battle between pursuit and counter-pursuit where it is unclear who is the hunter and who is the prey.
On the one hand, the demons searched the mountains and forests in groups, trying to find the bow spirit, and they clung to the slightest trace they found. On the other hand, the bow spirit did not seem to be ready to jump out of the encirclement and leave. She was like
A ghost, silently wandering in the jungle, harvesting the lives of demon soldiers.
The realm of bow spirits is somewhat similar to the realm of ax spirits. Roy did not need to participate in it at the beginning. Even if he stood in front of the demons, it was like air. This allowed him to clearly observe the bows at close range from different angles.
Every movement of the spirit. However, this is not pleasant.
Although he didn't have to fight, just following the bow spirit had already exhausted him to death. If the secret of the ruling was not too important, he really wanted to tell Kameni all this and let him know what he had to do every day.
How miserable, don't always think that you are living a leisurely life.
After two prayer hours, Roy's consciousness left the world of judgment and woke up from meditation.
Although his first contact with Bow Spirit did not teach him anything, he still gained two gains. First, during the battle with Bow Spirit, he saw three types of lost rifles.
There are more than a dozen kinds of footwork and many combat skills that he can't wait to learn right away.
And the second... Roy stretched out his fist, and a complete battle ring appeared on his arm.
After arduous training, today's meditation and fighting spirit training has made his fighting spirit break through to the top of the first and tenth level. This means that he already has the strength to arm a five-star knight, has two battle rings and can drive
The brave knight whose fighting spirit has left his body is only one step away!
