"So, you just came out of a desperate situation today?" Philip rode his horse and walked side by side with Roy.
Roy nodded.
"You still don't know what happened outside for more than a year?"
"Of course." Roy glanced at Phillip: "No one in the desperate situation can tell me what is happening outside."
Phillip looked at Roy's natural look, his face twitched, and he didn't know what it felt like.
You know, among the top aristocrats in the empire, Roy's name is the same as that of Augustus, who is known to everyone. Augustus is the heir to the Golden Dragon family and the godson of Pope Nicholas II. He is also a year-old
An extraordinary genius who was promoted to the Great Knight of Light half a year ago.
Roy, on the other hand, is just a civilian handyman from a small barony. Not only is there a huge difference in status, but I heard that he was called a waste and a fool when he was in Borabel!
But it happened that this ordinary little handyman caused a shocking earthquake in the south that affected the entire Saint Solan Empire. He became the central topic of various banquets and dances in the top aristocratic circles. He was
The number of mentions even surpassed that of Augustus.
For more than a year, the empire has been experiencing turmoil and undercurrents. Instead of calming down, what happened at the beginning has intensified.
The nobles were in panic all day long, fearing that they would be catastrophically destroyed if a huge change occurred. They were constantly engaging in various activities in private, including those who hugged each other, those who ignored their connections, those who recalled the family's armed forces, those who inquired about information, and those who spread rumors.
Those who mediate, those who resign, those who avoid disaster, and those who are busy are very busy.
But who would have thought that the core figure of this huge trend is the ordinary boy with black hair and blue hair beside him at this moment, and he is as calm and calm as if nothing happened.
"What, did something related to me happen? I was about to ask someone to inquire." Roy saw Philip looking strange and asked curiously.
"I really don't understand," Philip sighed and asked, "Aren't you afraid of the Holy Cult's revenge? They could kill you in front of the princess back then, and they can do the same now."
"Afraid!" Roy had thought about this question countless times in the desperate situation, and replied: "However, some things cannot be done again. They attacked me because they knew that was the only thing that could attack me.
Kill me and control the conflict to a certain extent. If you kill me then, you will kill me, but now..."
"I think, since I am Princess Alessia's guardian knight, and the relationship between the royal family and the Holy Church is so tense, no matter how much I endure it, His Majesty Edward will not turn a blind eye, right?" Roy's lips curled up, and he turned to look at Philip:
"No matter what His Majesty Edward does, the matter has been made clear. Now they will not do it so easily. The reputation and pride of the Holy Church and the genius knight Augustus cannot be destroyed by a commoner.
In hand."
Philip stared at Roy as if he were seeing a monster. For a long time, until he sat down and his horse fell slightly behind, he took a deep breath, nodded and said: "I have to admit that you have a pair of eyes that are born to see through everything.
"
Philip urged him to go forward with Roy, and said: "Since the incident with Polabel, the conflict between the royal family and the Holy See has intensified. A year ago, His Majesty Edward announced the expulsion of all the Knights Templar in the Saint Solan Empire.
members, and review the cathedrals for crimes..."
Roy was startled. He knew very well that the stronger the royal family's reaction, the safer he would be after he came out.
In a desperate situation, he had thought about the various possibilities of conflict between the royal family and the Holy Religion, thought about Edward using this as some kind of exchange for benefits, and even thought about the royal family swallowing their anger, but he never thought that Edward's actions would be so drastic.
If we do this, wouldn’t it mean breaking up and declaring war?
"Although His Majesty Edward's will was only known to a few people at the top of the empire at that time, it was immediately opposed by the nobles headed by Donald. It seemed like a big change, but at this time, Princess Alessia announced that she had joined
Temple of the Saint." Philip said slowly.
"Holy Maiden's Hall?" Roy's heart skipped a beat. He had heard this name mentioned countless times. However, like most people, he knew nothing about the mystery and nobility of Saint Maiden's Hall.
.But this was enough for him to understand why Alessia wanted to join the Saintess Temple.
Obviously, at a time when the royal family is in turmoil, only by joining the Hall of Saints can Alessia seek justice for herself and help her father Edward consolidate the imperial power.
Thinking of the beautiful figure rising and falling with the galloping of the Elf-like white Barabore in the Borabel Mountains, Roy couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart and asked, "What happened next?"
"The Holy Lady's Temple is not someone that Donald can mess with," Philip said coldly: "The final result was that the Holy Sect sent a cardinal to the Saint Solan royal family to apologize, and recalled Alex and most of the Holy Temple.
Members of the Knights and the royal family also took a step back and did not take action against the church, allowing a small team of Knights Templar to continue to be stationed in the imperial capital to protect the safety of Pope Saint-Soulan."
With that said, Philip patted Roy on the shoulder: "Only a few people at the top of the empire know about these things, but the turmoil caused is not small. When you follow me back to the imperial capital, I'm afraid you will soon become the focus of the nobles' attention.
In the future, I don’t know how big of a trend it will stir up.”
"I won't go to the Imperial Capital." Roy shook his head and said.
"But..." Philip was stunned: "Susan specifically told me that if I find you, I will send you to the imperial capital. Although the Holy Church will not take action easily now, no one can guarantee what those lunatics will do. Only in the future
That's where you can be absolutely safe."
"No place is absolutely safe." Roy said: "If I can survive in a desperate situation, I can survive anywhere. Besides, now that the original matter has been settled, Alex has been expelled from Saint Solan.
, why should I jump out? For me, it is easier to live in a place where no one knows me."
"What are your plans?" Philip was a little disappointed. In the conversation just now, he already knew that Roy now has the level of a four-star Langxing mage. If he appeared in the imperial capital at this time, he would be loyal to Alessia, the royal family, and all the people loyal to him.
This is exciting news for everyone in the royal family.
He could even imagine the wonderful expressions on the faces of the people from the Holy See when they discovered that not only was Roy alive, but he also had extraordinary magical talent.
But who knew that Roy would directly refuse.
"I'm going to be admitted to the Munich branch of the first training camp," Roy said with a smile: "To be the princess's guardian knight, I have to become a knight first."
Knight? Philip looked speechlessly at the guy in front of him who could cast seven levels of magic but only had five levels of fighting spirit.
Finally, he thought for a while and sighed: "It's a good idea to enter the academy. No matter how arrogant the people of the Holy Church and Donald are, they don't dare to openly challenge the dignity of the first training camp. Besides, not many people there will pay attention to you.
With his identity and our covert protection, there should be no problem with his safety."
There were some things that Roy didn't say and Phillip didn't ask.
However, he understood that this black-haired boy with the ability of a magician was definitely not as harmless as he seemed on the surface. He didn't know what evil he was harboring secretly.
The group didn't go far when they met a cavalry troop coming to meet them. It was the second cavalry group that Philip came to meet after receiving the letter falcon's request for help.
Dozens of red-leaf knights in bright clothes and angry horses, plus hundreds of cavalry and retinues, came galloping from the horizon, with lances like a forest, and battle flags covering the sky. They rode their horses in a circle from behind, and some of them quickly turned around.
Come over and protect the outside of the team, while the other part spreads far behind and around.
For a moment, the surroundings were just bright cavalry piercing the sky, people like tigers, horses and dragons were passing back and forth, rolling iron currents were rushing, changing directions on the way, vigilant warnings, guarding guarding, all movements were uniform. In the ears, there was only the thunderous sound of horse hooves.
, the sound and roar come and go from near to far, from far to near, one after another.
Roy and the others couldn't help but look around, dazzled and shocked. The Red Leaf Knights are indeed worthy of their reputation for being among the five major knights in the empire. Not to mention anything else, just looking at the discipline and cooperation of this army, in
The ability to give orders and execute tasks while galloping is enough to make people feel how powerful they are.
In terms of equipment, the Red Leaf Knights are not comparable to ordinary knights.
In this team of knights, all knights above the brave level are equipped with magic pattern armor and weapons. Although they are standard weapons, they are also expensive to make. The horses they sit on are all black Xiatai, the tallest horse in the Saint Solan Empire.
Horse. This kind of specially bred war horse not only has a tall and strong body and black and strong muscles like a Friesian horse, but also has the same graceful running posture, but is faster.
More importantly, this kind of horse, which combines the characteristics of many famous horse breeds, is smart and docile, has a stable personality, and has a compatibility of up to 60% with people's fighting spirit. This means that after being stimulated by the battle ring, they can burst out.
Its speed and strength far exceed that of most other war horses.
The reason why knights are called knights is because of the natural cooperation between man and horse. Even in this world full of Warcraft, war horses are the only choice for most knights. The price of an excellent Xiatai horse on the black market
It can reach more than a thousand gold coins. Those with high fighting spirit compatibility may even be hard to find.
Roy was secretly stunned. He knew that the Red Leaf Knights were the core component of the Red Leaf Legion. They were mainly composed of 500 Red Leaf Knights, and there were thousands of retinues and thousands of cavalry among the peripheral members. In addition, the Red Leaf Knights were the core component of the Red Leaf Legion.
The total number of infantry and logistics members exceeds 30,000.
As the controller of such a huge force, how powerful the Hongye Kalei family must be!
Thinking of this, Roy's eyes half-squinted. This intuitive display of power in front of him reminded him of the Knights Templar of the Holy See, and of the [Golden Dragon] family, which was far more powerful than the Carlyle family, and the
High and mighty Augustus, Donald and Alex.
If he wants revenge and wants to uncover the truth of fifteen years ago, he still has a long, long way to go.
Roy took a deep breath and saw the road sign ahead, which was almost to Meding City.
There will be the place where you take the first step of revenge.
