When the 10,000 garrison troops quickly marched to the right side of the central square, they were discovered by the rebel outpost hundreds of meters away. When the report came up, the eldest prince's face suddenly turned ashen!
Ten thousand security troops rushed into the square and immediately formed an overall siege on the eldest prince's rebels.
In the central square, there is the Holy Knights on the left and the garrison on the right. More importantly, 10,000 garrison soldiers suddenly came to the palace to serve the king. At least in terms of the number of troops, the disadvantage of the royalists was reversed in one fell swoop.
Naturally, the eldest prince couldn't figure out why these tightly controlled security forces suddenly appeared here. And he was sure that the people he sent to do this were his absolutely trusted confidants.
, they are all direct descendants who have been under his command for many years...
Earl Raymond had already let out a long sigh. Looking at Prince Chen who was far away on the city wall, the confidence in the heart of this military minister was gone. He suddenly looked back at Alpha as the captain of the guard, and whispered: "Alfa, we are defeated.
"
After saying that, Earl Raymond came to the eldest prince, glanced at the eldest prince who was ashen-faced, and felt a trace of contempt in his heart. He straightened his body and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, now concentrate all your strength and attack the guard immediately.
Crush them, and then...leave the city, and there will be a chance to come back and build momentum again!"
The eldest prince's eyes were empty, and he didn't seem to hear Earl Raymond's words. He just nodded blankly, but suddenly his eyes changed, becoming full of ferocious color, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Impossible! I don't believe it! How could I lose?
!”
After saying that, he shouted: "I still have a thousand elite cavalry! Huh, those ragtag guards. How can they be my opponent!"
The eldest prince seemed to have lost his mind. The thousand elite cavalry under him were built up with many years of hard work, and they recruited many powerful real knights. He shouted loudly: "Leymon, I will give you five hundred people, you go and kill them."
Stop those security forces! I personally led the people to attack the palace, I don't believe I will fail!"
Count Raymond stopped saying anything and sighed.
Won't it fail?
Less than half of Juncker's 10,000 rebels have been killed or wounded, and the strength of the Holy Knights cannot be underestimated. At this moment, in the square, there are only about 6,000 Junkers' dungeon guards on their side, plus the troops who have just collected the entire city.
, more than two thousand people came. In addition to the eldest prince's cavalry of one thousand, and the guards in the hands of the wealthy nobles on his side, all added up, they could barely make up one thousand. A total of ten thousand people... to deal with
The Holy Knights have to deal with a 10,000-strong garrison. They also have to capture the palace... How easy is it?
At this time, suddenly the door of the palace in the distance was opened, and then there was only Prince Chen standing inside the empty door. He walked out slowly. He held a long object flatly in his hand, and there was a hug on it.
It is covered with a layer of black wide silk cloth, which looks very heavy. From the outline, it looks like it is a spear of astonishing length.
This sudden change made everyone stunned. Prince Chen slowly walked outside the palace gate with a smile on his face. Less than a hundred meters in front of him, there were many rebels under General Juncker.
But the prince showed no fear at all. He stopped and gently knocked the black thing covered in black silk on the ground.
Everyone was a little confused for a moment. They didn't know what the prince was doing when he suddenly ran out of the imperial city.
The rebels didn't pay attention either. They were hesitating whether to go up immediately. If they could take the opportunity to kill the prince, the situation would be...
"The first article of the Knight's Declaration..." Prince Chen's calm voice suddenly spread so clearly throughout the square. He had obviously cast a wind-type sound transmission magic, and the clear and warm voice fell clearly on everyone's ears.
:
"Article 1 of the Knight's Declaration: I swear in the name of my soul that 'loyalty' will become the character I respect throughout my life. I will stick to my heart and have no regrets in my life! If I violate it, I may the 'Knight's Spear' abandon my soul!"
"Article 2 of the Knight's Declaration: I swear in the name of my heart. 'Honor' will become an existence greater than my life. I will defend my honor and the knight's honor throughout my life. I will have no regrets in my life! If I violate it, I will use the 'Knight's Spear'
Abandon my soul!"
"Article 3 of the Knight's Declaration: I swear in the name of my soul that I will remember the 'sacrifice'. I will not hesitate to take my own life! I will have no regrets in my life! If I violate it, I am willing to abandon my soul with the 'Knight's Spear'!"
"Article 4 of the Knight's Declaration: I swear in the name of my soul that courage will remain in my heart forever, and 'bravery' will be my yardstick. I will move forward bravely and have no regrets in my life! If I violate it, I hope that the 'Knight's Spear' will abandon me.
soul!"
"Article 5 of the Knight's Declaration: I swear in the name of my heart that I will pity the weak. Cruelty is my enemy, tolerance is my friend, a heart of 'compassion', and no regrets in my life! If I violate it, I will be 'Knight'
Spear 'Abandon my soul!"
"Article 6 of the Knight's Declaration: I swear in the name of my soul that I will maintain the integration of my spirit and my soul. My spirit is my soul, and my soul is my life. I will have no regrets in my life! If I violate it, I wish the knight
Gun' abandon my soul!"
"Article 7 of the Knight's Declaration: I swear in the name of my heart: I will be 'honest'. As a knight, my words will always be straight to my heart. Lies will be my biggest enemy and disdain. I will have no regrets in my life! If I violate it,
May the 'Knight's Spear' abandon my soul!"
"Article 8 of the Knight's Declaration: I swear in the name of my soul: I will remember 'justice'. My center of the earth is the incarnation of the scale, and my sword will point to injustice. I will have no regrets in my life! If I violate it, I may throw away the 'Knight's Spear'
My soul!"
This knight's declaration is firmly remembered by every warrior on the continent who has the qualifications of a knight. Every person who has the qualifications of a knight knelt down and recited it when they first obtained the status of a knight.
This knight's declaration is to let everyone who is a knight remember the eight qualities of a knight: loyalty, honor, sacrifice, bravery, compassion, spirit, honesty, and justice.
Although magic civilization is now prosperous in Roland Continent, the era of knights is far older than the history of magic civilization. Before magic civilization was not so prosperous, knights once dominated this continent!
Legend has it that in that era, the status of the Knights Association was even far more important than the current magic unions on the mainland! The Knights Associations all over the mainland are sacred places comparable to temples in everyone's heart, and everyone respects them extremely. Their status is incomparable.
Noble. And every knight will be sincerely respected by the civilians.
However, the years have passed, and now on the mainland, the status of magic is far higher than that of warriors, and the era of knights has long passed. The most important thing is that with the passage of time, the eight major spirits of knights have gradually
Forgotten by people... Although every knight can memorize the declaration, there are very few people who can truly abide by the spirit of chivalry. Most of the so-called "knights" are just powerful in force but mixed in spirit.
The real reason, in addition to the prosperity of magic and the weakness of knights, there is another most important reason, which is: when the knights take an oath when they obtain the badge, the oath is no longer binding on them!
When a magician takes an oath, he will automatically leave a magic mark, such as the "First Iron Law". If you violate the oath, you will definitely be punished accordingly!
But now, the declarations of those knights often do not mean what they mean, and they talk about the Eight Spirits. However, after leaving the Knights Association, some people often behave randomly and bully the weak. In addition to the loss of spiritual beliefs, even if they abandon the content of the declaration, they will not
Being punished accordingly and losing restraint is the biggest reason for the decline of chivalry!
Without the power of restraint, decay is natural!
Prince Chen's face was extremely serious, and he glanced gently across the square. Whether they were rebels or royalists, there were countless people in the camp who had knight titles of different levels. Suddenly, they heard this
His Highness Wei Chen recited the Eight Spirits of the Knight's Declaration loudly in front of everyone. Everyone couldn't help but look weird. They didn't know what His Highness was up to. Some people's expressions remained unchanged, but in their hearts they had a faint disdain for these so-called Eight Spirits...
"If I violate it, may the 'Knight's Spear' abandon my soul!!" Prince Chen suddenly whispered these words, then paused and repeated loudly: "May the Knight's Spear abandon my soul!"
He glanced back and forth and smiled softly: "Nowadays, how many people still abide by these eight spirits? Your Excellencies, knights?"
Knight's gun...
According to legend, in the age of knights, the knight's highest artifact, a legendary spear, possesses supreme power. It is the strongest weapon of the warriors left by the gods in the world. Every knight must face the power of the knight.
I swear that my soul mark will remain on this knight's gun! If you break your oath, the knight's gun will peel off the soul mark of the violator. After death, the soul will drift across the continent and become a sad soul forever.
Punished by eternal loneliness and darkness.
With the punishment of the "knight's spear" hanging above his head, in that era, few knights dared to violate their oaths and do evil!
It's a pity that I don't know when it started, or even when, where, or why. Anyway, the mysterious "Knight's Spear" has long been lost in the long river of history. No one knows about the Knight.
Where is the gun, where and when it was lost? Some people even think that the gods took back that extremely powerful weapon.
After that, the decline of chivalry began. Without the deterrence of punishment, knights did not have to leave their soul mark on the legendary knight's gun when they swore an oath, nor did they have to worry about being punished by the knight's gun for breaking the oath.
Punishment, therefore, the spirit of chivalry has decayed from generation to generation, and finally became the situation it is today.
At this moment, Prince Chen was standing at the gate of the city. The smell of blood was wafting everywhere in the square. He suddenly talked about the spirit and oath of knights, which made him feel a little weird. Then, the highness slowly pulled off the long thing beside him.
The black silk cloth that covers it reveals its face...
A golden spear, shaped like an enlarged cross. The golden cross spear just stood on the ground. It was even taller than Prince Chen. There was a brilliant light on the gun body, and the cross
The head of the gun is slightly broken, and the cross on the tip of the gun seems to be missing a short length for some reason. And if you look closely, you will find that there are many terrible scratches on the handle of the gun.
, if some of the scratches were just a little deeper, I'm afraid the golden cross spear would have been broken into two!
This golden cross gun was exposed to everyone's eyes. For a moment, even the breathing in the square stopped! Tens of thousands of eyes stared at the golden cross gun in Prince Chen's hand. After a long time
, no one dares to make the slightest sound!!
Also without warning, suddenly countless people from both camps, whether they were rebels or royalists, suddenly ran out of the queue and knelt down on one knee in the square far away.
Facing Prince Chen from afar, with one fist across his heart, these knights wearing badges of various levels on their chests all lowered their heads deeply, their whole bodies trembling and trembling, their eyes full of fanaticism and piety, that posture
, even ten points better than the most fanatical religious believers!
Even the Alpha Guard Captain behind Earl Raymond had fallen off his horse. He had already injured his leg. He even rolled and fell to the ground regardless of his injury. This important minister of the Luo Lin family
, but at this moment, his eyes were filled with tears in the direction of Prince Chen.
"Alfa!" Count Raymond changed his color and said, "You..."
"Lord Earl." Alpha raised his head, his body trembled, and he took a deep breath: "That is the holy spear! The real holy spear! The knight's spear!"
The knight's spear, the golden cross spear, the holy spear... At the same time, it also has a name that is extremely sacred in the hearts of the knights:
The Spear of Longinus!
Standing on the city wall, Du Wei withdrew his hand and floated towards the knights kneeling in the dark square. He sighed...
