Chapter 451: Dignity

"Get out of the way, Lord Lord, here!" suddenly someone in the crowd shouted.

Hearing this, those who were standing in the middle of Tianqin Avenue hurriedly moved out of the way to both sides. Soon, the originally dense crowd felt as if a knife had been cut, revealing a two-meter-wide aisle. Surrounded by several Lyra Patrol Guards, Raidy slowly walked towards the Human Head Tower, followed by Sheriff Margaret and Lyra Raider Captain Bonnie.

Looking straight ahead, Leitch could easily see the Human Head Tower standing in the center of the crowd - five stories high, with hundreds of human heads, which could not help but be shocking to look at, and at the top of the Human Head Tower, sat a warrior.

From the armor worn by a warrior, you can see a lot of things - for example, this warrior is wearing a leather armor, the color of the leather armor is dull, it is estimated that it should have been a period of time, and there are even a few traces of sewing!

Now the warrior carried a long, slender knife in his right hand, the blade of which rested on his right shoulder, and the warrior's left hand resting casually on the knee of his left leg, and sitting on the top of the tower of the human head, which undoubtedly gave a wild and uninhibited gratitude, like a mighty and dangerous beast.

Unexpectedly, when Leqi walked three meters away from the Human Head Tower, the long-knife warrior who was originally bored and looking at the sky suddenly jumped down from the top of the Human Head Tower, knelt down in front of Lei Qi, held his right hand in front of his chest, and said respectfully: "Conrad has seen Lord Viscount!"

The people around looked at Conrad with a sudden change in painting style in great surprise, but Leitch had an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth.

But Leitch didn't say anything, he just silently looked at Conrad and the human head tower beside him. And many civilians around saw that Leitch was silent, and they didn't even dare to come out!

Margaret and Bonnie behind Leitch were also secretly looking at Conrad and the Human Head Tower. Margaret stared at the heads of the Human Head Tower, thought for a moment, and suddenly a trace of shock flashed in her eyes, and then she saw her approaching Leitch and said: "Lord Viscount, those heads seem to be wanted by the territory, among them, the one who seems to be the leader of the Tempest Horse Thieves, the one who is the lone thief One-Eyed Dragon, and the one who seems to have absconded from the Roland Empire, the necromancer Dulles!"

Margaret's voice was not loud, but she did not deliberately suppress it, so what Margaret said just now was also heard by many people around her, which immediately caused a burst of exclamations - not to mention anything else, the Tempest Horse Thieves are notorious in the entire Starfog Valley!

The Tempest Horse Thieves are a group of horse thieves that roam between the Roland Empire, the former Kingdom of Abidjan and the Dawson Federation, with only twenty people, but these twenty people, since they appeared, have caused a lot of trouble to the Three Kingdoms!

It is said that these twenty people were originally knights who belonged to the original Northern Luo Knights of the Roland Empire, but for some reason, they became deserters, and even formed a horse thief group in the name of Tempest. Since then, the Tempest Horse Thieves have roamed the border between Roland, Dawson, and the former Abidjan, attacking passing caravans and travelers from time to time, and even committing the evil deeds of slaughtering the countryside!

However, because each of the Tempest Horse Thieves Regiment rode Beiluo horses, coming and going like the wind, and immediately fled to neighboring countries after committing the crime, and the twenty people from the Beiluo Knights had quite strong combat power, this made the Three Kingdoms face many difficulties in encircling and suppressing the Tempest Horse Thieves! Thinking about it, it has been nearly a year since the appearance of the Tempest Horse Thieves Regiment, but I didn't expect to be uprooted by this warrior named Conrad quietly!

"Get up, Knight Conrad. Leitch said with a smile.

Seeing the female warrior who looked like an officer tell the identity of the person he killed, Conrad couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and listening to the exclamations of the people around him, Conrad couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.

Hearing the Viscount, who was so young in his eyes, shouting to him to get up, Conrad secretly thought that his goal had been achieved more than halfway, but when he noticed the word 'knight' in Leitch's words, Conrad couldn't help but change his face in shock!

"You know me?!" Conrad said with a slight tremor as he looked at Leitch in shock.

Conrad's excitement made the surrounding civilians look a little inexplicable, but Margaret and Bonnie immediately escorted Leitch in front of him, looking at Conrad vigilantly - just now, they felt a flash of hostility from Conrad's body!

Leqi's face remained unchanged, and he shook his head slightly and said, "I think we should know each other for the first time." ”

Seeing that Leitch's expression did not seem to be fake, Conrad secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but then he couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Since you have never heard of me before, then I don't know why Lord Viscount is so sure that I used to be a knight?!"

Not only Conrad, but also the eyes of countless civilians around him were also extremely curious to roam between Leitch and Conrad - this somewhat vicious-looking warrior could actually be a knight?! How could the viscount determine that the other party was a knight at a glance?!

"Everyone has their own habits, and habits are often the hardest to change. At Leitch's remark, everyone around him nodded in agreement.

At this time, everyone saw that Leitch's right hand was pressed on his chest, and he smiled: "Your leather armor here, and here, has obvious dots, because your leather armor is too worn, maybe ordinary people will not care about it, but in my eyes, plus the too smooth skin on your forehead, these three points are just a complete cross." ”

"And judging by your dress, you can't be a priest, then, you should be a crusader knight!" I don't know if I'm right?" After saying that, Leitch smiled and stared at Conrad and asked—Reich's handsome smile sent chills through Conrad's heart.

Although most of the civilians around him couldn't understand what the crosses and priests were in Leggie's words, they noticed the extremely shocked look on Conrad's face, and they all realized that the inference made by Lord Viscount just now was probably not far from the truth!

It's really terrifying!

This is the opinion of most of the people present about Leitch at this time.

"I admire the Viscount's observance, and I admit that I am indeed a Crucifixion. But drawing a cross is something that any devout Crucidian would do on a regular basis, so even if the two points on my leather armor were crossed, it wouldn't be enough to prove that I was once a Crusader knight, right?"

Although many people have decided that Conrad is a crusader knight, they have to admit that what Conrad said is also very reasonable. So at this time, everyone looked at Leitch expectantly, to see if he could give another reason!

"You're right, it's a bit arbitrary to judge you as a Crusader knight just by drawing a cross. Unexpectedly, Leitch smiled and nodded, looking very much in agreement with Conrad's statement.

"But—" This abrupt turn of events immediately attracted everyone's attention, and many of them could not help but become excited—at this time, listening to the Viscount dissect the truth was even more interesting than listening to those bards tell those old heroic legends!

"Just like habits, what is more difficult for a person to change is his temperament! Just like a farmer wearing heavy armor, he does not look like an elite soldier, and a merchant wearing a crown does not show any domineering spirit—every kind of person has his own unique temperament!"

"And I see in you the compassion, perseverance, humility, integrity, and honor of a true knight! These will not be concealed even if you wear worn armor! Combined with your status as a Crucifixion, it is not surprising that I would identify you as a Crusader knight,"

Looking at Leitch's sunny smile, Conrad suddenly felt a little infarcted in his heart—it's been a long time, and even I have almost forgotten that I used to be a knight! But now the young lord in front of me has given me the dignity and glory of being a knight again!

With mixed thoughts, Conrad performed a standard crusade etiquette to Leitch, and this etiquette also meant that he had admitted Reich's inference!

However, at this time, Leitch did not pay attention to Conrad, but turned his head to look at the many civilians around him, feeling a sudden and somewhat depressed atmosphere, Leitch suddenly said aloud: "Everyone, my people, please look at me!"

Although I don't understand why the lord is suddenly like this, all of a sudden everyone still subconsciously looks at Leqi to see what kind of surprise this lord's Excellency who is always unexpected will bring?

"I can feel a feeling of inferiority and loss spreading among you. Leitch's words were like suddenly exposing the darkness in everyone's hearts to the sun, which made many people's faces suddenly become quite unnatural.

Leitch smiled faintly: "Among you, there are farmers, peddlers, servants, beggars, and wandering warriors...... In short, no matter how you look at it, your life seems to be not honorable, and you are the ones who live at the bottom. Then, your fragile self-esteem was hurt by the 'temperament' I just mentioned, and you even fell into a deep inferiority complex for it!"

"It's really pathetic for you guys like this!"

Many people were angry that their faces became more and more unnatural and angry because of Leitch's naked revelation of the last thing they wanted to be seen, but many more people quietly buried their heads to avoid the gazes that might fall on them.

"But I'm by no means laughing at who you are and what you do. This sentence seemed to light a fire in the cold night, making those who were immersed in loss suddenly look at Leqi and looked at him with great hope, "What I really feel sorry for you is your heart that does not dare to fight and enterprising!"

"Who am I, Leqi Alec? I'm sure many of you will give Viscount Black Wind, Lord of Starmist Valley, Black Tide Terminator, and so on, in short, I am enough to make most of you envious, a noble member living at the top of the Federation!"

"But, I think you may have overlooked a lot of things—two years ago, not even two years, I was just an inferior citizen of Thunderman City! Believe me, there will never be fewer rats in my old attic than in all of you!"

"Hahaha-"

Leitch's cold joke successfully caused many people to laugh, and the originally gloomy atmosphere quietly became a lot more lively.

"But, looking at the way I have now, I have achieved enough to be the envy of the vast majority of those present!" said Retche, looking around at everyone and smiling, "Maybe you'll blame it all on my talent." ”

"I confess that my talent is good, and it qualifies me for success, but qualification is never the same as success! Behind everything I have gained, I have done far more than you do—I am memorizing the theory of magic while you leisurely tease with the beautiful maids in the tavern, and I am fighting demons in the scorching abyss while you complain that the vegetables are not fresh enough at night...... Maybe you envy the huge prestige and glory I won by ending the Black Super League, but in fact, during that time, I was endlessly tortured, wandering on the edge of life and death again and again!"

"I can tell you for sure, there is no such thing as a free lunch!"

"The aristocratic lord you envy actually hides the struggle and dedication of generations behind it! And because your ancestors and yourself did not work hard enough, you are destined to be ruled, and there is no injustice in this!"

"To live the life you want, to have everything you desire, then play hard instead of complaining!"

"That way, when you're old, even if you don't succeed to your satisfaction, you won't regret living in vain!"

"Your children and grandchildren will lie on your lap, reflecting the fireplace fire, listening carefully to the tortuous history of your past struggle, and proud that they have such a brave and fearless ancestor!"

"Yes, Lord Viscount!"

As the first person knelt down, and soon the surrounding people knelt down in the dark oppression, and everyone was looking at the tall and heroic young viscount in the crowd with fiery eyes! At this moment, many of them were awakened by Leitch's words, and their fiery passion began to burn with the brilliance of struggle!
