Snap.
Snap.
The exquisitely polished pointed greaves made a crisp sound when they stepped on the ground.
Silver Crown Knight walked into Leia City step by step, just like taking a leisurely stroll.
The group of defenders blocking the city gate were so frightened that their livers and gallbladders split apart. They screamed in terror and ran toward the city without daring to look back. They couldn't muster the slightest emotion of resistance.
"For Leia! For Rongdeng!"
"I will never retreat! Destroy the enemy!"
"Charge with me!!"
One of the captains raised his sword and shouted violently.
Under his leadership, the few soldiers who still had courage roared and launched a desperate charge together with him.
Gilan's eyes narrowed.
Buzz--
He saw Silver Crown Knight's body flashing, moving across more than ten meters at a speed that even he could not see clearly, and the air vibrated violently like waves.
The soldiers it passed along the way all stopped motionless!
In the blink of an eye.
Bah! Bah! Bah!
Without exception, the heads of those soldiers all flew up!
Blood splattered and headless corpses fell down.
But it's not over yet--
When more than a dozen corpses fell to the ground, they decomposed like scattered building blocks, with all their limbs broken off and turned into four equal parts. If someone weighed them, they would find that the weight of each equal part was exactly the same, without any difference!
On the left chest of each corpse's torso, fine sword marks three fingers wide were exposed, and the heart was pierced. In fact, even the other internal organs were also stabbed, but no external sword wounds could be found.
Then his head fell like rain and hit the ground with a thud.
On the other hand, Silver Crown Knight still didn't have a drop of blood on his body, and he even sheathed his sword without knowing when.
He stood straight on the spot, raised his head, and silently stared at the gloomy sky.
Soon, a majestic knight team poured in outside the city.
There were only fifty or sixty of them, and they formed a long queue, each wearing full-covering armor and white robes, riding tall horses. Even the horses were covered with a layer of scale-like armor, which was extremely shiny.
This scene is just like what Gilan saw in his dream.
The third female knight in the front row is holding a flag, which is a "white cross" pattern surrounded by olive branches and garlands.
Gilan did not step forward rashly, but ducked into an alley.
He is waiting for an opportunity.
An opportunity to gain favor from Silver Crown Knight.
In order to get close to the Knights, obtain unknown information and even benefits.
Soon.
This opportunity has come.
Silver Crown Knight rode in front, leading the knights to march straight down the street.
Perhaps because the flag fluttering in the wind was too eye-catching and deeply rooted in people's hearts, many people walked out of the stone and wooden houses on both sides of the road.
Most of them were city residents infected with the plague, with sallow complexions and thin muscles, and constant coughing. But their eyes when looking at the knights were bright and full of hope.
At this time.
Whoosh!
Silver Crown Knight at the front raised his right fist high.
Fifty or sixty knights in helmets and armor behind him shouted in unison:
"Protect the faith and heal the suffering! End the troubled times without hesitating a fight!"
Those voices were full of piety, like prayers and declarations of war.
There is an inexplicable appeal.
Even when Gilan heard it, his heart was surging and his blood was boiling.
The law!
Silver Crown Knight suddenly reined in his horse and stopped.
The knights behind him were also in uniform, waiting in place.
The deputy captain dismounted from his horse, walked straight to a young girl suffering from an epidemic cough, and pulled out the cross sword from her waist with a clang.
The cold light is biting and breathtaking.
The girl screamed and fell to the ground.
The younger brother beside him was about to rush forward and stop his sister.
But there is a figure who is faster than him!
Swish--
It was a man wearing a white owl mask, wearing strange clothes, and holding an ax in his hand.
"Please don't hurt them."
Gilan said in a deep voice.
"Shouldn't you abide by the knight's creed and swear to the death to fulfill the motto of 'protect the faith and heal the suffering'?"
"A bird-beaked doctor from a foreign country?"
Silver Crown Knight There was a whisper under the cross mask.
He immediately chuckled and said:
"I don't mean to hurt them. On the contrary, I will heal them."
Phew!
Silver Crown Knight shook the cross sword and held it straight in front of him, with his hands lightly stacked on the round-headed sword hilt.
From a close distance, Gilan can even clearly see the cross pattern carved on the handle, as well as some incomprehensible Ancient Shiru characters.
"Please get out of my way. I, Agni, act in all my life and never speak falsely."
Facing Gilan's cross-visor, a gentle voice came out.
Gilan stared at the other party for several seconds.
Then he remained silent and turned sideways.
Silver Crown Knight nodded to him and immediately came to the siblings.
The young boy cast a hostile look, but Agni didn't take it seriously. Everyone present didn't even see him draw his sword, but heard a clang.
The next second.
Silver Crown Knight's cross sword has been quietly sheathed.
A fine line-like cut appeared on the girl's armpit, inner thigh, two centimeters above her wrist, and four centimeters above her ankle, from which black and purple pus and blood oozed.
"Sister!" The boy was startled and exclaimed.
But the girl looked shocked, because she suddenly found that the stinging and itching in her lungs had disappeared, her body was not that weak, and she had regained some of her strength.
She quickly pulled her younger brother to kneel down together and kowtowed to Silver Crown Knight.
"Thank you, Lord Knight!" the girl said gratefully.
Gilan, who was standing aside, held his breath.
The moment Agni drew his sword, his Mind Kingdom was actually touched. The Cross-Sword Bonfire fluctuated violently and swayed endlessly like never before.
It seems that the mysterious sword wind has triggered a very strong magnetic field!
Gilan knows very well that this is by no means as simple as scratching the wound and drawing out pus and blood, and it is even more impossible to cure the Black Death, especially the Black Death that has been contaminated by the mysterious power and Miasma!
Agni's swordsmanship has extremely mysterious power!
"Healing Knights! Healing Knights!!"
When residents on both sides of the road saw this miraculous scene, they shouted loudly because they saw hope of living.
And Silver Crown Knight doesn't care.
He turned to look at Gilan and praised:
"In the face of the strong, you are neither humble nor arrogant, and you dare to take risks to protect the weak. You are very good."
Gilan Seeing this, knowing that the opportunity has come, he took advantage of the situation and said in a deep voice:
"I want to join your command, and I want to learn from you... the swordsmanship that heals diseases and saves lives just now!"
Silver Crown Knight said nothing, and he stared at Gilan for several seconds.
Immediately, he said calmly:
"This swordsmanship is called 'Gerard's Bloodletting Sword' and was created by Captain William. It requires extremely high talent... But if you are really interested, you can take the test first. If you pass, I will make you a member of the Knights."
"Okay!"
Gilan replied.
Silver Crown Knight nodded to him, then turned his head and called out:
"Pala, take him down and follow the team first... I will leave the test to you."
"Yes, Agni deputy leader!"
In the queue, a blond young man responded quickly.
He was wearing light armor and a white cloak. After dismounting, he strode over with his helmet in his hands.
When I saw Gilan's strange attire, I just took a second look and was not surprised.
"New here, what's your name?" the young man asked.
"Gilan·Iros."
"Hello Gilan, come with me first. The specific test will be discussed later when we set up camp."
This man patted Gilan on the shoulder affectionately, and then led him into the ranks of the Knights.
When they came to the horse, the blond young man did not get on the horse, but held the reins and walked with Gilan. He turned to Gilan and said:
"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Pala Celsus."
