Alien Knights

When the marching horn sounded over Muxi City, all the citizens stopped what they were doing and turned their sights in the direction of the city gate.

The knight's whole body was hidden in black armor, and the keel limbs twisted and danced in the steel; the iron hooves of the alien war horse stepped on the ground, making a heavy and deep sound.

The Valkyrie, wearing a crown on her head, carrying a bow and arrow and throwing a spear, rides a snow-white gryphon, soaring over the city, using her hand to engraved a dragon's flag to point the way forward to the troops on the ground.

Orcs as strong as mountains, werewolves with sharp teeth and claws, tauren carrying giant axes, elves with fire and ice on their fingertips...

There are 13,000 Muxi Knights and 3,000 Crusaders. The first large-scale use of troops since the establishment of the Dragon Kingdom has officially begun.

Standing on the balcony of the palace, Todd, with his hands on the railings, watched the army march toward the east, farther and farther away, and asked softly: Regarding this operation in Taylor City, do you understand your responsibilities?

Randall made a fist with his right hand, placed it on his chest, bent down towards the king and performed a military salute: Your Majesty, I understand.

Todd nodded, turned around, and took out a palm-sized round pendant from his sleeve, with a giant dragon flapping its wings engraved on it.

Slowly raising the dragon-shaped badge, Todd said: Unlike the decorative pendants of most members of the Crusaders, this is the Dragon God badge. Part of my power is poured into it. As long as you hold it with concentration, By tightening it, you can guide your soul into the Kingdom of Heaven. As long as your soul enters the Kingdom of Heaven, no power in this world can threaten you.

The number of Dragon God badges is very small, and they are basically only issued to Shamans and Valkyries of the Crusaders. Todd hung the badge around Randall's neck and said slowly: I will give it to you now, I hope you can use its power correctly.

Randall stroked the badge pattern on his neck with a pious look on his face: Your Majesty, thank you for your favor.

Todd nodded slightly and said, You deserve this.

Randall looked at the badge on his chest, opened his mouth, but stopped talking.

Todd looked at the expression on his face and said, If you have anything to say, just say it directly, no need to hesitate.

Your Majesty, please forgive me... I didn't understand it a long time ago. You seem to have always... taken good care of me... Randall said doubtfully: I don't think there is anything extraordinary about me. , I don’t have any extraordinary power, I am just an ordinary human being, why do you...?

The confessional in the church, the defensive battle in Muxi City, the last battle in Lone Rock City... Todd looked at the man in front of him and said with a smile: Randall, maybe you don't realize it, but the fact is... we Somewhat similar.”

resemblance?

We all put the well-being of others before our own interests. We are willing to use our lives to protect everything we love.

Todd patted Randall's shoulder lightly: Strength, power, wisdom, and ambition are just tools for living beings to change the world, but pure and sincere original intentions are the source of making the world a better place.

If there are one hundred more gods in this world, it will just be the icing on the cake; but if there is one more saint who is dedicated to good, it will be a blessing.

Randall lowered his head and chewed Todd's words quietly.

After a moment, he raised his head and said piously and firmly: I understand what you mean, and I will not disappoint your expectations.

Todd smiled happily.

Walking out of the door of the king's audience room, Randall looked at his friends in the corridor and let out a long breath.

Barbara, wearing a red dress, walked up to Randall and asked curiously: What did His Majesty tell you? Did he mention our marriage?

Hearing Barbara's question, the werewolf Aldenan looked at the orc Carol next to him with a joking look.

The word marriage in Barbara's mouth made Carol's rock-like face tremble slightly.

However, soon, the orc returned to normal, pretending as if he hadn't heard anything.

Randall subconsciously touched his chest with his hand and said calmly: Your Majesty has great expectations for our operation this time.

Aldenan spread his hands: Now, can you tell us what the content of this operation is?

Randall replied: We will go to the Father's Parish in the East to rescue some scholars.

Aldenan muttered softly: Rescuing the scholar? I'm afraid it's not that simple...

Carroll stood up straight and said in a deep voice: Since His Majesty the Holy King has issued the order, then we only need to follow it. Discussions and speculations are just redundant actions.

Barbara agreed: Yes, the Crusaders have two volunteers who volunteered to participate in this operation. They are downstairs. Randall, you should go and meet them first.

Randall nodded and walked along the stairs at the end of the corridor towards the first floor.

In the hall on the first floor, a tauren and a lizard man stood together and looked toward the second floor.

Aldenan turned over from the stairs, jumped to the floor of the hall, ran to the Minotaur's side, patted the other man's chest hard, and laughed loudly: Bulwer, thank you for your help! I knew that usually Those drinks were not for nothing!

The dark-skinned Bulwer blocked the werewolf's furry claws and said to Randall, who was walking slowly: Let me introduce you. This is Kellogg, a scout of the lizardman species and my best friend. friend.

Aldenan scratched the back of his head and said, Aren't your best friends Carol and I...?

Ignoring Aldenan's complaints, Bulwer continued: After hearing the news that you needed support, I originally wanted to ask a few more people for help. However, orcs, werewolves, elves, dwarves... they heard that Randall After this name, they all rejected my proposal.

Lizardman Kellogg blinked his eyes, shook his head and said, Hiss, Randall, your name has become taboo among many species.

Randall smiled bitterly and said: Because I am a human being...

Kellogg glanced at Barbara: Hiss... the combination of humans and elves will make the Crusader species feel... unhappy...

The grumpy Barbara raised her head and said loudly: Let those gossips continue to slander! In my opinion, some human beings are more credible and more trustworthy than the Crusaders who pretend to be noble. sincere!

Kellogg spat out the letter with a headache and said to Bulwer: I regret agreeing to your invitation... hiss...

Bulwer looked at Aldenan: This guy told me that they were ordered by the Dragon God to carry out a great and noble mission. Once the mission is completed, not only all members will be rewarded by the Dragon God, but also every Personal achievements will be recorded in history forever... So, Aldenan, tell me, what exactly is this mission?

The werewolf scratched his cheek: Honestly, I don't know.

You don't know?! The tauren's eyes widened and he rolled up his sleeves, ready to fight.

Aldenan quickly pointed to Randall and said: This mission was indeed ordered by the Supreme Dragon God himself, but only he knows the details of the mission.

Randall looked at Bulwell and Kellogg, nodded and said: This is not the place to talk. Maybe we can find a quieter place, sit down and chat slowly.
