Skilled Pikemen Don't Leash

Chapter 491 The Emotion Named "Suspicion"

"With the current state of the Lion King and the attitude of the knights towards her, it is impossible for her to come to this room to see you. Therefore, you have no possibility of being alone in the room with her. If you want to see her, you just have to You can perform a formal pilgrimage in the main hall of the Holy Pagoda. However, in that state, it is difficult for you to successfully approach her."

Before Bedivere met the Lion King, Yi Guang discussed with Bedivere about "Returning the Sword".From Yi Guang's point of view, relying on Bedivere's strength alone, it is difficult to accomplish this task.In the original book, if it weren't for the assistance of Chaldea, who gathered all the forces opposing the Lion King at this singularity to besiege the "holy capital", it would be almost impossible for Bedivere to return the holy sword.Even before he could meet the Lion King, he would be killed by his former comrades, the "Knights of the Round Table" who have been distorted by the Lion King's "blessing".

Well, at least Mordred in the "running" state and Tristan in the "reverse" state are both interested in killing people.They probably wouldn't mind killing Bedivere, a knight who was still loyal to "King Arthur" instead of "Lion King".

Now, although Yi Guang was able to let him meet the Lion King, there is still considerable difficulty in "returning the sword".After all, to pay homage to the king, you are under the throne, and there is a considerable distance from the king himself.Even if the lion king's hall is not equipped with guards such as "imperial guards" and "golden guards" like ordinary human emperors.But no matter if it is the Lion King on the throne, Aggraven serving on the side of the king, or the knights who take orders in front of the throne, they are not good friends.Even if Bedivere holds the holy sword Excalibur, it is absolutely impossible to advance to the distance of facing the Lion King in such a situation of powerful enemies.

"Although I'm just an unknown and weak god, but in my authority, there is a part of the law of 'time', I can temporarily stop time, and this still time is your only chance."

"How long is this time?" Bedivere nodded, "Since you will come to me, it means that you can't control this ability well, right? My lord?"

"That's right. After all, 'time' is a very mysterious and great thing. To make it stop, I not only need to prepare in advance, but the effect is not very good. Under normal circumstances, I can probably stop time in about 15 seconds , but your king has power no less than mine, so this time will be further shortened." Yi Guang nodded, "So, this requires your cooperation, seize this short time and complete your task."

"There is no problem with this. I will use the holy sword to attract everyone's attention and buy it for a short period of time." Bedivere nodded, "Even if my comrades are distorted, even if the king forgets everything, as long as you see the holy sword As for the sword, they will definitely fall into a brief moment of consternation. I will try to get as close to the throne as possible during that time, and then I will rely on you, Your Excellency Lanza."

"Is that so? Just temporarily attracting attention in the name of the holy sword? This is also a way, so let's do it..." Yi Guang nodded, "Before the time stops when the Lion King breaks free from me, you must use the holy sword Return the sword, or you will have no chance, and I will lose your king's trust forever."

"I understand that I have waited for 500 years, so I will never miss this unique opportunity."

Therefore, Bedivere did what he said, and he did complete his task.The light of the holy sword Excalibur penetrated the body of the Lion King, and at the same time Bedivere's body began to show signs of collapse.

"... I seem to remember."

As for the Lion King who was pierced by the holy sword, her eyes changed at this moment.The golden flame that was originally burning fiercely in the emerald green pupils, representing divinity, began to dim, and was replaced by a more agile brilliance.Although it is only a trace, it does exist.

At the same time, the Lion King's own power finally broke free from Yi Guang's time stillness.She gently stroked Bedivere's face with her hands, and quietly looked at the knight in front of her with a look of reminiscence.

This face resurfaced from the depths of her memory, overlapping with the figure holding the holy sword in front of her.

"That forest, that hill... that, the face of the knight with swollen eyes from crying, who took care of me until the end." The Lion King murmured softly, "In order to get rid of that regret, you have gone through many trials and hardships, always Wandering around?"

"I'm very sorry, I... came too late." Bedivere said shyly.

"No, you have done well. My last and best, loyal knight. The sword has indeed been returned, so hold your chest up, Bedivere. You have indeed - completed your king's work Order."

I don't know if it was the return of humanity caused by the return of the holy sword, but for the first time, a smile appeared on the face of the Lion King, which had not fluctuated much.And this, for Bedivere, the knight who has been searching for thousands of years, is probably the best compliment.

"I finally saw you again... I still remember your smile that day."

Bedivere also slightly tugged at the corner of his mouth. His body had begun to collapse and his wish had been fulfilled, and he no longer had the strength to drive his body.Seeing the familiar smile of the king thousands of years ago, Bedivere's obsession with supporting his broken soul and body has dissipated.The body that should have collapsed long ago has lost the meaning of continuing to survive.

"Thank you……"

This is the last words the Cavaliers want to express, but he has no time to finish.The loyal knight who had been looking for thousands of years disappeared into the arms of the king he loved and cared about.His body turned into a ball of fine sand, scattered on the floor of the hall.

Thank you for carrying that dark age alone.Only you have never known the brilliance of that round table.

The valiant King of Knights, the Lord who saved Britain.You are our shining star.

Although Bedivere didn't finish speaking in person, his eyes at the end were expressive, and the Lion King can naturally feel such enthusiasm—no, the king at this time has already regained the power of the holy sword. Emotion and memory, perhaps it is more appropriate to call it "King Arthur Artoria" from Bedivere's point of view.

"Farewell, my knight..."

After Bedivere disappeared, the king, who regained his memories and feelings, pulled out the holy sword that had pierced his body, and then turned to Yi Guang.

Her eyes became sharp again.

"You knew all of this a long time ago, this is all your layout, right?"

Even if the former humanity and memory are regained, the divinity and spirituality endowed by the Holy Lance will not disappear.The divine flame in the eyes of the king who has been sublimated into a god became hot again, and the concept of "anger" appeared because he regained his humanity.

"That is the wish of this knight. I just want to help him complete his journey. As I said, this matter is tortuous and unimaginable. If you can't understand it yourself, it is impossible for me or Knight Bedivere to tell you I explained it myself."

Yi Guang sighed, and at the same time his time stillness reached its limit.The knights rushed to the throne again from the stagnant time gap, but they could no longer find the knight with a gentle smile.They all felt that a part of their memory had been intercepted. They were trying to stop Bedivere from approaching the throne, but when they regained consciousness, the knight they didn't want to see had disappeared.All he could see was that his own king was holding the holy sword, confronting that outsider from afar.

This inexplicable scene without any cause and effect caused the knights to fall into confusion.

"Just now, what just happened..."

"Why is the king with that outsider...Bedivere?"

"That's, that's the holy sword?! The holy sword 'Excalibur'?! By the way, Bedivere seems to have taken out the holy sword just now!"

Slowly, the knights seemed to recall some key memory, and Agguiwen was the first to react.Then they unanimously set their eyes on the king and the outsider, hesitating... Concerned about Yi Guang's terrifying fighting power, they didn't dare to act rashly for the time being.

"If you think that you are a drag on you, then you can attack me." Yi Guang continued, "But if that's the case, what's the point of Bedivere's sacrifice and perseverance? ?”

"Are you threatening me with Sir Bedivere's sacrifice?" The angry Lion King said coldly, "It is not a simple sin that can be pardoned."

"However, that is not rebellion, nor is it confrontation with swords, but the completion of a ceremony." Yi Guang waved his hand, "Now you are no longer bound by the holy gun, isn't it a good thing?"

"Whether it's a blessing or a curse, who knows?" The Lion King's eyes flickered slightly, "It's not an ideal state for me now to regain human feelings..."

"The king who once carried the dark age, why would he have such worries?" Yi Guang sighed, "Could it be, do you still have doubts about yourself? Didn't you feel Bedivere's sacrifice and his last thanks? ?"

"I do feel it, Bedivere's last... But, because of this, I can't trust you now." The Lion King shook his head, "How much are you hiding? You know How many things? Right now, what I cannot suppress is the emotion called 'suspicion'."

"This is really..." Yi Guang smiled wryly and shook his head, "Is this a cocoon?"

Chapter 492 The Frustrated Yi Guang and the Returning Two... Ahem, Lancelot

Yi Guang's idea seems to be self-defeating.

Having regained the memories and feelings of being a human being, the king who was once named "Arturia" and has now turned into a goddess does not just understand human desires and sensibility.At the same time, what revives in her heart is the negative situation of human beings, which has been criticized by countless religions as the incarnation of demons.Anger, suspicion, regret, hatred... The goddess who has been corroded by the Holy Lance for thousands of years and wandered outside the world for thousands of years has fallen into the world again.

Yi Guang's concealment, Bedivere's reunion and departure brought a strong emotional impact, and the huge change made her unable to get along for a while.The aloof God King, just like a mortal who has experienced great joy and great sorrow, needs to calm down his suddenly disturbed state of mind.And often at this time, people will naturally do something to achieve self-comfort and vent their anger.

That is to vent anger, but anyone who has even a little relationship with mood swings may be affected by this irrational emotion and become an existence called a "punching bag".

And Yi Guang... Well, as the only person who knew about Bedivere's "Returning the Sword", he was also the biggest behind-the-scenes planner.The lion king's anger and annoyance containing all kinds of complicated emotions were all poured out on this guy who had made a wishful calculation in advance, but now he has to take the blame with his face full of shit.

"What do you call this?" Yi Guang sat drinking in the tavern of the "Holy City" with a sore face, "I completely followed the wishes of that Bedivere knight, okay?"

Well, although it was the knight's own wish whether to return the sword or die, Yi Guang only contributed to this matter.But the so-called "the dead are the greatest", Bedivere has already rested, and all this has nothing to do with him.Even if he passed away without any regrets, in the eyes of the Lion King—or Artoria, he was indeed the cause of Bedivere's death.Moreover, his nagging behavior before made it easy for him to be assumed to be a "behind the scenes", not to mention that the Lion King himself had a grudge against him.

Although he didn't directly fight against his "ally" in the hall, the relationship between the Lion King and himself has indeed dropped to a freezing point, and the knights are full of malice looking at him.From their eyes, Yi Guang could almost guess what they were thinking at that time.

"Ah, to make the king so angry, Lansa, you should hurry up and die!"

"Explode, explode with me, Lansa, as the price for making father angry!"

"It's really sad. Obviously, the time that Lansa spent with us in the tavern was very happy. Sure enough, the happy time will not last long... Why don't you die and see, Lanza?"

Except for Gao Wen who was hanging on the flagpole in the square at that time, the several knights who were present at that time all cast their eyes on Yi Guang as if they were looking at garbage.I believe that if it wasn't because they couldn't beat them, their eyes at that time would definitely have evolved into the eyes of looking at a dead person, and then they had a good "chat" with themselves, right?

"It's really depressing." Yi Guang sighed, and then drank the wine in his glass, "But at least she hasn't been completely rejected by her, nor has she been expelled from the 'Holy Capital'. It seems that even if It's in the state of venting anger, that guy still maintains a certain amount of rational thinking... Now I can only wait for her to calm down from this huge emotional fluctuation."

Although a bit depressed, Yi Guang did not lose confidence in the current situation.After all, even if you regain your feelings and memories, the process of deification is irreversible, and the Lion King is still the Lion King after all.What should be done by the Lion King must be done by herself... Even if it is because of the momentary irrationality caused by the current emotional agitation, the "Holy Choice Plan" cannot be stagnated.

Even in the past few days, various matters related to the "holy election" are being prepared in an orderly manner.Although Yi Guang couldn't get in touch with the secrets that were too core, he could feel that the power gathered on the white tower was constantly increasing.That is the proof that the Lion King's "holy election plan" is still unfolding without stagnation - the white "holy tower" is called the "tower of the border", and it is the "anchor" that fixes the laws on the surface of the planet and maintains the inner world The manifestation is also the body of the "Holy Capital" and the "Holy Spear" in the hands of the Lion King.When the real body of the "Tower of the Frontier" is fully unfolded, the power of the "Holy Lance" will also reach its peak, and the place where the pure white tower is located will become the end of the whole world.

At that time, the entire "Tower of the Frontier" will go to the outside of the world with the destruction of the sixth singularity, completely independent of human reason and many parallel worlds, and become an "ark" that preserves the records of human civilization. Later generations left evidence of human existence.

This is the cruel "Holy Selection Plan", the last resort conceived by the pure white goddess when Chaldea's strength is considered insufficient to defeat the King of Magic.But now, the goddess has regained human emotions and has become the half-human, half-god king again.However, the "holy election plan" is still being implemented, which means that on the goal of "continuing mankind", whether it is the "Goddess Lion King" or the current "deification of King Arthur", both have the same views.

"As long as the 'Holy Capital' still has the goal of 'preserving the proof of human existence', she will still form an alliance with me." After thinking for a while, Yi Guang came to a conclusion, "Otherwise, with the current Artoria, it is impossible to Against those two of my kind plus Pharaoh and Chaldea."

It is obviously not the king's style to entrust his destiny to others.Therefore, unless the situation at the end of Chapter 6 of the original work really happened, the master of the "holy capital" would inevitably maintain his covenant with him, which is why Yi Guang was not expelled.The only question now is, when will Her Majesty, who has regained her humanity, recover from her petty temper.

"It's so depressing..." Yi Guang sighed, then poured another glass of wine, "I took the blame for you, Mr. Bedivere. But for your hard work, this blame I'll help you carry it."

Suddenly, there was a commotion on the street outside, as if an army was passing by.Yi Guang couldn't help being a little curious, so he observed it slightly, but got a thing that made him a little dazed, but it was expected.

"Lord Lancelot is back from the crusade against the 'People of the Mountain'..." Yi Guang heard someone talking like this, and at the same time he also felt a not-so-weak servant atmosphere in that team.

The chief of the round table, "Knight of the Lake" Lancelot, finally returned to the "Holy Capital" five days after Yi Guang arrived at the singularity.The knights under the Lion Throne are now officially assembled.

"It's actually this boy who came back..." Yi Guang smiled wryly, "It's just when the relationship between me and that king has dropped to a freezing point..."

Chapter 493

Lancelot, translated into Chinese in the early years Lang Shile, a famous knight in the legend of King Arthur in ancient Britain. The chief of the "Knights of the Round Table", himself the son of a certain lord in France, was abandoned due to the country's civil strife.Later, he was adopted by the "Fairy of the Lake", learned martial arts, and got the sword called "Aroundight".Therefore, he was called the "Knight of the Lake". After becoming famous, he joined King Arthur, made great achievements in battle, and became the chief knight of the "Knights of the Round Table".

The most famous legend about this knight is his forbidden love affair with King Arthur's queen Guinevere, which led to the split of the "Knights of the Round Table".This incident became the source of the decline of the legend of King Arthur, and almost directly led to the destruction of the Arthurian dynasty.

That's right, in a sense it was indeed the direct cause, because Lancelot was extremely important to the "Knights of the Round Table" and even the whole of Britain at that time.Before the rule of King Arthur, Britain was in the midst of large-scale famine and continuous civil strife, and it was under the threat of invasion by the Saxons in the north and exploitation by the Roman Empire.After King Arthur succeeded to the throne, he quelled the internal strife among the major lords, repelled the Saxons going south, and managed to solve the famine problem. Only in this way can Britain become prosperous and prosperous.Among them, Lancelot played a huge role in solving the problem of famine.

Although Lancelot lost his family due to the war when he was young, his status as a French nobleman opened up his network of connections in the French noble circle after he became famous.Therefore, after he joined King Arthur's camp, he imported a large amount of grain from relatively rich France through his own network as a subsidy for Arthur.While solving the food shortage in the early days of King Arthur, he also established a stable food trade channel between the two regions. This is also an important reason why he was able to become the chief of the "Knights of the Round Table" as a latecomer.

And as the adultery between the knight and the queen was revealed, Lancelot broke with King Arthur. He not only took away part of the army and knights of the Knights at that time, but also separated France and cut off Britain's important food trade. As a result, Britain fell into an economic crisis.Coupled with the fact that Aggressive, who was an internal affairs officer, was killed by Lancelot in the process of exposing Guinevere, the internal affairs of the Arthur Dynasty entered a certain degree of chaos.This gave Mordred an opportunity to usurp power later, which indirectly led to the death of King Arthur.

"So, this guy is really responsible for the death of King Arthur." Yi Guang recalled the information he had exchanged in the system before he came here, and sorted it out when he had nothing to do these days, so he remembered it very well. Clearly, "Also, this guy claims to have a pure, platonic spiritual love with Guinevere. But... I remember that when this guy was caught and raped by Agguivin, he got naked from the queen rushed out of his room?"

In the most widely recognized account of Arthurian legend, the one described in The Death of King Arthur by the English author Thomas Malory in the 15th century, when Aggression gets a tip that Guinevere is with Lancelot had an affair, so when Mordred and several other knights went to the queen's room to catch the rape, the "Knight of the Lake", who was said to be playing "spiritual love" with the queen, was panicked Di [bare bottom] rushed out of the queen's room.Of course, these few knights who went to catch the rape and the leader of the Aggregation were also very shameful, and they were all overthrown by Lancelot—especially the Aggregation, who is the core of the "Knights of the Round Table". One of the twelve knights was unexpectedly attacked by the naked Lancelot while fully armed, and Mordred ran away very witty.

What the hell? Is there such a disparity in the fighting power among the "Knights of the Round Table"?Agegui Wenqing must have had a lot of psychological shadow at that time... When Yi Guang saw this passage, he felt quite sad anyway.Especially after seeing the current appearance of Agguiwen, it is completely unimaginable that he died so embarrassingly before he was alive.

"No wonder he hates Lancelot so much in the plot. If it were me, I would..." Yi Guang shook his head slightly, "But it's very mysterious. King Arthur in the moon world—whether it's the foolish king or the lion king, They all have a certain kind of mysterious trust in Lancelot. Even if they are tricked by the other party once, they still have the attitude of "you do things, I can rest assured."

This is exactly where Yi Guang has a headache now. It can be said that his relationship with the king has dropped to a freezing point. Not only is he not welcome in this city, but he is also under certain surveillance.But at this time, Lancelot came back, which made Yi Guang's plan to eradicate Lancelot almost impossible.Even finding a chance to follow Lancelot out of the city during his next mission, and then secretly doing it would be extremely difficult.

"So, must the king calm down first?" Yi Guang suddenly showed a helpless expression, "But this matter, I can't just talk about it..."

Yi Guang fell into a very awkward and passive situation, which made him a little anxious but powerless.After all, this is not a single-player dungeon like before, but a team battle mission. If he doesn't want to manage his power in this world at this time, his opponents will not stop and wait for him.Those two hosts must be gearing up at this moment, thinking about him sharpening their swords, right?

……

"Senior, this, really..."

"Wow! It's amazing!"

"The ancient Babylonian palace... Really great art! But it is also a fortress building with practical value!"

Looking at the palace complex rising from the ground in front of them, Tatsuka Fujimaru, Matthew and Da Vinci all exclaimed, and the refugees gathered around them in various costumes also talked about it.One of them was holding a bow and arrow, wearing a dark green armor, and a young man with a hearty smile came over and patted Fujimaru Tachika on the shoulder.

"It's really amazing! The master from Chaldea... what's your name... Lixiang? I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but the pronunciation of your name is a bit confusing." The archer with a child-like pure smile slapped Haha, "However, to be able to complete such a huge fortress in one day, or under such a mountainous terrain, is really amazing! Is it the hero king in ancient legends?"

"No, this is almost turning the entire mountain into a fortress..." said the man in black with a skull mask and strange arms, "Is this for a defensive battle with the 'Holy Capital'?"

"Miscellaneous cultivators! Look up to the king's achievements!" The proud hero king said complacently after completing the construction of the palace, "The village before you has no defense at all. Once you are discovered, you will die. Therefore, Thanks to this king, this king built a palace for himself, and it can also be used as a fortress for you to defend against the enemy, this whole mountain has been turned into a habitable building structure by this king."

"However, there is a decisive gap between us and the 'Holy Capital' in terms of population and army. If we don't hide..." said another woman who also wore a skull mask but a purple ponytail, "Isn't that sending you to death? ? What the hell are you doing?"

"Stupid, do you think you can survive by hiding in this mountain like this with mice?" The King of Heroes sneered, "If it weren't for the special situation now, this king really wants to..."

"Well, King Gilgamesh, please calm down for a while." Seeing that the situation was wrong, Fujimaru Tachika immediately stepped forward and said, "We will explain this matter to Hassan and the others. You just spent a lot of money on it, my lord." Magic, please go to rest."

Just kidding, Fujimaru Tatsuka didn't dare to let the King of Heroes be too presumptuous, the ancient king's mouth is well known.If he was allowed to finish his sentence, then the cooperation between Chaldea and the "People of the Mountain" would be completely over.

After seeing the power of the "holy capital", the Chaldean side no longer dared to underestimate this singularity.Not only did Tatsuka Fujimaru and others actively discuss countermeasures and start to act, even the always proud King of Heroes no longer looked casual, but began to exert his full strength.Not only unsealed the treasure named "Omniscient and Almighty Star", but also fully opened his "King's Treasure House" to strengthen his own forces.

But this made the hearts of the Chaldeans even heavier, because through the "omniscient and omnipotent star", Gilgamesh saw a part of the future.
