Broad World

Chapter 690: The faith of the Knights

Standing at the door, Henry hesitated a little, wondering if he should go in at this time. He is very aware of Kaidong's loyalty to his friends and hatred of evil. If he learns that a just battle to defend the elven capital is about to start in the south, he will definitely give up rest without hesitation and join the battle without hesitation.

You must know that this is a magical war, not a small fight between human lords, or against a hundred and eighty hobgoblin bandits or a squad of one or two thousand orcs.

Whether it is Joan Irenicus or the coalition side, they have a sufficient number of magical creatures and spellcasters. Once they are launched, they will inevitably be overwhelming spells. It is difficult to guarantee survival as a fighter on the front line. It is tragic. It is many times or even dozens of times higher than ordinary wars, even if the entire army is wiped out.

Henry couldn't imagine how he should explain to his family if Kaidong died in this battle? How to comfort the widow who was suffering?

headache!

Thinking of this, Henry rubbed his brows involuntarily. Just as he was hesitating, the head of the commander Witherland suddenly noticed that someone was shaking at the door, and he hurriedly stood up and asked, "Who is it? Who is there! Come in if something happens. Sir Kedong is not an outsider."

"It's me, your lord." Knowing that there is no way to hide, Henry had to bite the bullet and walked into the room.

"Thom, it turned out to be you, my friend." After Kaidong saw clearly who came, he immediately stood up and gave a warm hug. "You seem to have become a lot younger. Is this the effect of a certain life extension magic?"

Henry smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I am also very happy to see you again, but I have answered this question seven or eight times. It can only be said to be a curse effect. However, it will not endanger life in a short time. So nothing. So worried."

"Oh? What kind of curse can make a powerful legendary mage like you helpless?" The Head of Wesselland suddenly became serious. In his eyes, any guy who releases a curse to others can be counted as an evil generation. A guy who can cause headaches for legendary spellcasters must be an object of note and vigilance.

"A time-related curse is very, very powerful, and it is also difficult to explain clearly. However, I can say the name of this person, and I believe you have heard it. It is one of the culprits in the shopping mall a while ago. Joan Irenicus. He is quite powerful now, strong enough to recruit two evil forces to attack the wood elves capital in the depths of the Verdas Forest. Of course, this is also the purpose of my coming here." Henry Without any concealment, I told the story exactly.

When he mentioned the horror of the entire peninsula being slaughtered by the dark elves, the two old paladins clenched their fists, their eyes shot out angry sparks, and they wished to raise their swords to slay these evil enemies.

When everything was finished, the head of Wesselland gritted his teeth and nodded: "I understand what you mean. Don't worry, fighting evil is the responsibility and obligation of the Knights, even if it does not appear on the land of Amn. Let's talk about it. When I leave, I can gather five hundred knights and trainees at any time. I promise to give these crazy guys a fatal blow."

"Yes, Thom taught us to stand up when facing evil, otherwise they will destroy your home and kill your friends and relatives." Kai Dong also stood up and agreed with passion. He seemed completely unaware that he had retired and promised his wife never to risk his life again.

"Thank you, thank the Knights for their help, and of course also thank you, my friend." Henry carefully worded, trying to hurt Kaidong's self-esteem and honor. "But you have retired. Do you remember the vow you made to Maria? You can't go as hard as you used to."

Unfortunately, he underestimated the loyalty of the old paladin to his faith and honor. Perhaps in the eyes of paladins, being able to die in a battle against evil is a supreme honor, and even some persistent paladins take this as their life goal and stand tirelessly at the forefront of fighting evil.

As a paladin, Kaidong certainly can't violate his vows, but he can use his family to tell his wife to let him go. He took a deep breath and said with a firm tone: "No, I must go this time. If I shrink back when my friends need help and evil is eroding innocent lives! How can I face Tom after death!"

"Damn, I knew it was going to be like this." Henry cursed in a low voice. He knew that it would be useless to dissuade him now. The paladins were all creatures with a spine, and once a certain thing was identified, several dragons would not be able to pull it back.

When the head of Wesselland saw this situation, he not only did not follow to dissuade him, but instead laughed and patted his old friend on the shoulder: "Hahahaha! Kaidong, it seems that we are going to fight together again. It's really nothing. I thought that just now we were talking about the previous battles together, but the next second came a big surprise. This is the will of God, and it seems that our old bones have not yet reached the time to retire."

"That's right, the cause of justice requires my strength, this is Tom's guidance, I believe Maria and the children will agree." Said Kai Dong showed full confidence on his face. He knew very well that his wife would never interfere with his choice at critical moments.

"Well, now that you have made a decision, I won't say more. But there is one thing, this action must be completely under my command. Magical wars are completely different from ordinary wars, and the enemies they face are not ordinary. Of humans, orcs, and goblins. I can tell you clearly that Joan Erinikas’s army has not only a large number of golems that cannot be damaged by ordinary weapons, but also trolls, giants, demons, Evil beasts, ghosts and dragons."

Speaking of this, Henry deliberately paused, and then continued to state in a very heavy tone: "I can tell you clearly that this battle will be unbelievably tragic, even if the loss reaches more than 70%. , Especially those soldiers who charge into battle. Of course. I also correspond. An elite army is starting from Angome. It will be here in two days. The Masked Mage Guild has agreed to join the war, and there are also some metal giants. Dragon will join our camp. But these are not enough to reduce the risk, so those who participate are better prepared for a suicide note."

In response to this warning, the commander smiled indifferently: "Haha, if you want to use this method to scare us off, then you are obviously in the wrong place. Every official knight here writes it out at the ceremony of joining the regiment. After the suicide note, they have never been afraid of death! They are not afraid of evil! Justice will prevail!"

"Justice will prevail!" Kaidong shouted, hammering his heart with his fist fiercely.

This is the iconic action and slogan of the Knights. The tradition that has continued since the founding of the group can also be said to be a kind of belief. He can't remember how many times he shouted in the battle, but he still feels the blood in his body boiling.

Seeing this scene before him, Henry could not help but secretly admired that he was indeed the Knights of the Hot Hearts, who were indeed called the Guardians of Amn. The brave and never shrinking momentum alone was enough to overwhelm the entire Faerun continent. An army over ninety. He is now starting to look forward to whether the Knights of Solania can reach a similar level after being reorganized, even if only half of it is enough to cope with the endless monsters.

Now that the purpose of this trip has been achieved, Henry quickly got up and said goodbye. Kaidong also gave a salute to go home to convince his wife to support his decision.

Witherland did not try to stay, but just sent the two out of the gate. After all, recruiting five hundred knights and trainee knights is not a trivial matter. Not only do you have to greet the six-member council, but you also have to notify those who are on vacation one by one. In short, there are still a lot of troubles.

Know that this is not an ordinary army. Every official knight has at least five professional levels, and the trainee knight also has two professional levels. In frontal combat, they can completely defeat ordinary soldiers ten times their own. Especially when facing evil creatures, they can also exert greater combat effectiveness by virtue of divine art.

This is why Ascatla is close to the Cloudy Mountains, but has never been breached by a monster for so many years. A knight order alone has such a powerful combat power, coupled with the magical support of a masked wizard, unless there is a powerful evil force behind it, you can rely on these monsters alone, and don’t even think about getting closer to the city wall in a few hundred years. .

Walking on the clean stone bridge to the temple, Kaidong touched the neat beard on his chin and smiled and asked, "Why, you seem to be worried?"

"Oh? Is it that obvious?" Henry looked up in amazement. He was indeed thinking about how to reduce losses in this fierce magical war, especially those various evil creatures. Almost every one of them has two-handed magic skills. If you don't pay attention, countless people will die.

"Of course, it seems that the enemy is really difficult to deal with this time. I have never seen you show such a heavy expression when I was siege of the Inner Demon. If you have anything to say, don't hold it in your heart, I will It's a good listener." Kaidong once again entered the role of soul mentor, trying to help Henry ease the tension caused by pressure.

Henry first showed a bitter smile, and then shook his head slightly: "No, I don't think you can help me this time. This is a magical war, usually rare spells of level 3 or higher will be overwhelmed like a tide. After a round, ordinary soldiers can't even find their bodies, and countless lives will die. I'm trying to find a way to reduce deaths, but it's a bit too difficult."

"This is nothing you can do. You don't have to blame yourself too much. Just try your best. Believe me, everyone who is willing to join this war knows what dangers they will face~www.ltnovel.com~ so you have to do it. This is to lead us to victory. I have to go back and explain to Maria that if you need help, you can come to me at any time.” After saying that Kaidong patted Henry on the shoulder for comfort, and then waved his hand straight to himself Go in the direction of home.

Seeing his leaving back, Henry sneered and murmured to himself: "What I am worried about is only my subordinates. What does it matter if other people die more."

As a person who strictly adhered to absolute neutrality, his disregard for death had long been deep in his bones. Not to mention the deaths of thousands of 800 soldiers, even half of the population of the entire Western Continent would not curse their brows. Of course, the premise is that your relatives, friends, and territory are not included. Although very selfish, he has such a character...
