Proof of the Sun King

The 500-strong army did not choose to be stationed by the lakeside of the Moon Lake. It was courting death. They chose to station in a basin two or three hundred meters away from the Moon Lake.

Compared with the army that Lane saw in Kalzenhaven, this army composed of Mjordenhaven's standing army and conscripts was better equipped and had stronger overall strength. In terms of camping alone, they were flexible. Well trained, a camp quickly takes shape in their hands.

The next thing is very simple, fetch water, chop wood, cook rice, and then prepare to rest early.

There were whispers in the camp, and the soldiers had no confidence in the possible encounter tomorrow. Everyone gathered around the familiar kingdom knight, Nikolai, and discussed in a low voice while cooking and eating.

"Lord Nikolai, is there going to be a war tomorrow?" a young soldier asked carefully.

"What nonsense are you talking about, brat? If we don't start a war, why are we here?" An old soldier said unceremoniously and scolded.

"...I'm just asking." The recruits looked uneasy: "I heard that the barbarian warriors are all followers of Chaos. They eat human flesh and drink human blood, and they will tear up everything they see. Will you survive tomorrow?"

"Who knows? We Miyoden Haven are already located in the south of Nord. I really don't understand why the god-killed barbarians would come here!" With rations.

"..." Ryan frowned. Even though these soldiers were better equipped and stronger, their morale couldn't compare to those veterans in northern cities.

He gave Nikolai a look and signaled him to say something. Ryan's current status is more like a guest general, and he is not suitable to directly command the army below Nikolai, a knight of the kingdom.

The idea of ​​wanting to have one's own territory and to have one's own army has never been so strong.

"You idiots, can't you use your brains to think about it?" Nikolai immediately understood, and scolded the soldiers angrily: "Think carefully, if we don't go out, the barbarians won't come to the door?"

This makes sense, and most soldiers immediately understood the cause and effect.

"I tell you, it's impossible! Whether we go out or not, these damned barbarians will rush into our cities like locusts, kill all our relatives, **** our food, and they will take everything we have now, All turned to ashes!"

The eyes of the soldiers began to become firm, and everyone knew the outcome of the barbarians rushing into the city.

Many of the young soldiers had blood-red eyes and gasping for breath.

"Our names will be left on our graves as shamers - if there are, we will be ridiculed contemptuously by those who come after us, even if we get away with our lives, and we cannot defend our homeland and our families, what will we be? Where are you seeing?"

"Kill! Kill all those damned barbarians!!!" A young soldier stood up immediately: "Kill them all!"

"Yes! Destroy them!"

"The barbarians should all be damned!"

"Swear to guard our homeland!"

"Defend your hometown! Defend Your Excellency the Earl!"

War is the best patriotic education. Seeing that the morale of the soldiers is gradually being stimulated, Ryan nodded with satisfaction. Behind these soldiers is their homeland, their relatives are their reason for fighting, and their glory is closely connected with their lives. They have no reason not to fight to the death.

The south of Nord is no better than the north. In the northern towns of Nord, most of the civilians have blood-red eyes when they hear that the northern barbarians are coming.

Ryan left the barracks and walked alone to the Moon Lake to think alone. Gradually, the sky turned dark and the moon rose. Ryan looked at the huge full moon above his head and heard footsteps behind him: "You have a good father. , Ike."

"Mr. Ryan, I apologize to you again for what I did before." The young wandering knight sighed and appeared behind Ryan: "I had already made up my mind to no longer rely on my father's reputation, but in the end I still fell in front of reality."

"Everyone has to face reality. There is always a day when people bow to reality. If your current strength can't overcome it, then wait for the opportunity." Ryan turned around and looked at the wandering knight standing behind him.

From the moment he saw the Ike-Albrecht family crest, he knew that this kid was the son of Gade, the Knight of the White Wolf, because if it wasn't for that person's descendants, no one could use that kind of family crest.

"Forget about profit, covet fame, coerce and tempt me, I'm really ashamed of your father." Ryan's face was cold, he looked at Ike, his sharp eyes almost made the wandering knight feel ashamed: "I know why I didn't pursue you in the end. Are those people responsible?"

"Why?" The wandering knight replied subconsciously.

"Because... to a certain extent, you did good things with bad intentions. At that time, you dressed up to meet the enemy and bought a lot of time for the caravan. If it wasn't for your sacrifice, more people might have died." Ryan Putting his eyes on the Moon Lake in the distance, he said lightly: "Furthermore, if it wasn't for your forced palace, I might not have gotten that windfall, so after weighing the outcome, I still feel that there is no need to pursue Gu. Desen is his responsibility, he was injured because of the battle with the Beastmen, wasn't he?"

"In any case, I will give everything in this war." Ike said in a deep voice. After the young man said these words, he left without looking back: "To wash away my shame."

Ryan nodded, and he walked into the depths of the ruins by the Moon Lake alone.

From the beginning, something called him from the depths of the ruins.

Ryan began to gradually walk into the depths of the ruins.

The streets are very narrow, the white walls are full of scratches, and there are traces of battle everywhere. Ryan doesn't know what happened in the ruins, but the exploration of countless adventurers for thousands of years has completely lost the ruins. Every corner of this abandoned city has been thoroughly searched by humans. Since the Great Holy War, no adventurer has explored this place, because every corner has been dug three feet into the ground. After that, there is no need to waste time in this place.

The elves' architectural art is ingenious. No matter where he is, Ryan can always look up to see the moon and look back at the lake of the moon.

Following the road paved with heavy boulders, Ryan climbed the steps, and at the end of the ruins, the voice calling for him became clearer.

He came to an altar.

This ancient altar can no longer be seen which deity is enshrined. Every sculpture has been destroyed and taken away by greedy adventurers. In the long gallery, the frescoes that tell the past have been seriously missing, only the collapsed stone pillar and the brazier on the altar are not of interest, and the preservation is relatively intact.

He can be sure that there is something calling him here.

The moonlight sprinkled the entire altar, and also sprinkled on the armor on Ryan's body. The light reflected everywhere, and the family crest on his shoulders kept shining brightly.

Will it be the goddess of the moon? Lane was lost in thought.

The Moon Goddess used to be one of the main gods of human beliefs before the Great Disaster, but after thousands of years of development, this church has long since declined. Existence, the residents of the bitter cold land of Nord have been in danger for a long time, and the Church of the Goddess of the Moon, which advocates human rights and freedom, cannot find much living space.

In fact, the Empire and Britania didn't like the Church of the Moon Goddess either.

When Ryan was thinking, there was a burst of footsteps behind him, and a sika deer appeared in front of Ryan's eyes. Ryan subconsciously raised the warhammer to signal it to move away, otherwise don't blame himself for being ruthless.

But the sika deer didn't let go, it nodded towards Ryan, and then ran into the woods beside it.

Ryan thought for a while and decided to follow.

The fog in the forest is getting thicker and thicker, and the faint fragrance fills the air. The ancient hymn resounds in the forest, telling the great past of the king of knights. The forest fairy sings around a beautiful figure. On the unicorn, quietly watching the guests brought by the deer.

"Ma'am?" At a distance of about twenty paces, Ryan had realized who was coming.

The other party didn't answer. In the thick fog, Ryan couldn't see the other party's expression. All he could see was her beautiful long blonde hair reaching to her ankles, and the unicorn's sharp corners were dotted with stars.

She seemed to be waiting for Ryan's next move.

"My tribute to you, ma'am." After a moment's hesitation, Ryan decided to kneel down on one knee to salute the goddess. No matter what the starting point of the fairy in the lake was, she was the one who standardized and formulated the eight knights. Virtue, she brought discipline and hope to mankind in this dark age. At that time, if the fairy in the lake hadn't helped Arthur, the founding knight, all human beings in Brittany would have perished.

"Lane, a foreign visitor from outside the realm, son of Norman, the lord of Ortne, godson of Ivan Ferdinand, Duke of the Griffin of the Empire, nice to meet you." A voice like Qingquan spoke, and every word she said With alluring floral fragrance and a strong sense of oppression, Ryan mustered all his mental power to hear what she said clearly, and the **** used Gothic, and his forehead was sweating after a few words. .

"I am very honored to be received by the lady. What's the matter?" Ryan couldn't figure out what the creator of knightly virtue, the patron saint and master of Brittany, saw himself for. So he spoke carefully.

"Sure enough!" The fairy in the lake raised her hand and gestured for Ryan to get up, and each of her soft voices could easily make people fall into an eternal dream: "Few people can bear a direct dialogue with me, my Holy Grail Knight. They can't do it either, I always have to dream of them."

"..." Ryan didn't answer, he didn't collect enough information, and when he couldn't understand why the fairy in the lake wanted to see him, it was better to remain silent.

"I've already got the answer, go ahead and continue your battle. I want to remind you that the enemy is outnumbered, and Bireg is a person blessed by Khorne and cannot be beaten." The fairy in the lake continued, she said. Where she was, the snow had faded, and countless flowers and grasses slowly grew along the path she had passed.

"The current situation does not have the conditions for outwitness. I can only try to delay him as much as possible to wait for the arrival of reinforcements from the Empire." Ryan answered bluntly.

"Predicting your future always makes me feel very dangerous, as if some supreme being is watching me coldly... But before the reinforcements of the empire arrive, you will have a battle with Bireg. Victory or defeat will determine the safety of this city and all living beings within a radius of dozens of miles." The figure of the fairy in the lake was looming in the mist: "Go and face it, White Wolf Knight, and then you will understand what is real The virtues of chivalry."

The prophecy of the fairy in the lake has never failed~www.wuxiahere.com~ She has a powerful ability to peep into the future, although Ryan doesn't know why she would assert that she will have a battle with Bireg, but since she predicted, this matter will be Very likely to happen.

But why did she remind herself? What's she doing this for?

"Ma'am, can you answer my doubts?" Ryan began to vaguely guess what the fairy in the lake wanted to do, so he simply asked directly: "I have always heard the White Wolf Archbishop His Excellency Maras say that you are an elf. the gods."

"You do know a lot, Ryan." Even after covering up in the thick fog, Ryan could feel the change in the fairy's tone in the lake. She was silent for a long time before continuing to speak: "Honestness is a virtue, I am the elf god, Nor is it a spirit god."

"Appreciate further details."

"My world was scorched and dead under the attack of chaos. The gate of chaos devoured everything in the main material world. I fought my way out of the siege, and it took a long time to come to this world. At that time, I was an elf. god."

"However, the elves in this world already have a complete **** system, which does not belong to me. In my observation, human beings have higher potential and wisdom than elves, and they are the main force against chaos in the future. , so I chose to come to the Duchy of Carcassonne in Brittany, and you know what happened after that."

Ryan nodded. Everyone was familiar with the story of the knight king Arthur.

"After hundreds of years of accumulation of human beliefs, I am no different from a human god. My main identity is the patron saint of Brittany, not the goddess of destiny of the elves."

"I understand, thank you for your sincerity." Instead, Ryan felt that he was being a villain in vain, and he couldn't hold his face, so he bowed his head and apologized.

"I'm waiting for your choice."
