Chapter 470: Black Wind Knight
Chapter 470: Black Wind Knight
In the year 4018 of the Liberty Calendar, April 23, in the early morning, the Holy City of Lyra.
The sky was not yet bright, and apart from the strange golden green of the distant sky, there was still no shadow of the sun when I looked up. But at this time, whether it is the eagle's nest, the eagle's talon, or the eagle's wing, from the slightly hunched dock coolie, the cook whose waist is thicker than a bucket, the blacksmith in a stained gown, or the rich merchant who wears gold and silver...... All dragged their families out of their homes and walked towards the direction of Clock Square.
The reason why so many citizens rushed to the Clock Square was because at nine o'clock today, Viscount Black Wind would personally crown the Eight Thousand Horsemen of the Black Wind Knights!
At this time, in the sky above the Holy City of Lyra, dozens of mages wearing frost-white mage robes were suspended, and behind each of them were two bright notes, which fluttered and vibrated like wings, and it was with the help of these notes that these mages were able to stand in mid-air.
These notes are actually a kind of musical flying magic, and the lowest level of flying magic is at least the arcane level, which means that these dozens of mages have at least the strength of the arcane master!
At this moment, these dozens of powerful Black Wind Guardians looked at the scene below in great amazement - now, the entire Heavenly Lyra Holy City seemed to have turned into a huge funnel, and those citizens who rushed to the Clock Square were the water in the loophole, and the Clock Square was the leak!
Looking at the dense flow of people below, the many Black Wind Guardians in the air estimated that at least ninety percent of the citizens of the city had already appeared on the streets, and they felt unbelievable that there was no confusion or blockage in such a huge flow of people! Everyone approached the Clock Square in an orderly and slow manner, looking even more devout than the most devout believers!
But these Black Wind Guardians in mid-air are clear that the reason why these citizens are like this is not out of faith in that god, and when it comes to faith, it is also the belief in the lord they respect, the Black Tide Terminator, and the Black Wind Viscount!
This made these Black Wind Guardians feel relieved, but at the same time, they couldn't help but feel an indescribable complication-it was gratifying that when their territory was in a desperate situation, they made a desperate choice, bet on the right chips, and chose Viscount Black Wind, a noble rising star with great potential! But the potential of this Viscount Black Wind seems to be too great, so big that with the heritage of their Earl Family, which has been inherited for 7,000 years, they have no confidence to be able to control each other at all! In the end, I don't know whether Leitch's accession to the throne is a blessing or a curse for their Antonia family......
Soon, the periphery of the clock square was crowded with citizens who came to watch the ceremony, and after learning that the clock square had reached saturation, the citizens who failed to occupy a good position in time did not choose to return while regretting, but stayed nearby - even if they couldn't stand on the clock square, they had to stand closer to Lord Ionjue!
"Bang, bang, bang!"
At eight o'clock, standing on the clock square, and hundreds of thousands of citizens on both sides of the four main roads leading to the square, they only felt that the ground suddenly shook, and the heavy and neat footsteps sounded like a hammer, shaking everyone's hearts, and at the same time making everyone's expectations begin to burn a little bit!
"Bang!"
What caught everyone's eyes was a pitch-black and tall figure, they were covered in heavy metal armor, and it looked like a black gold barrier was advancing! These black armor surfaces had dull red lines, like cracks on the surface of a magma lake, and there seemed to be a faint flame burning on the surface of these black armors, which looked extremely weird!
But it's actually not surprising, because these black armors are all forged from Hellfire Demon Gold!That's right, taken from the huge Hellfire Demon Gold vein under Thumb City!
At first, when he first discovered that vein, Leitch really didn't dare to expose it, because the wealth was too huge! In order to conceal the news, Leitch didn't even hesitate to use a holy war puppet mark at that time, and killed the demon merchant from the Moon Shadow Chamber of Commerce who revealed the news to him on the spot!
However, with the arrival of Leitch in Star Fog Valley, his strength has long been different from what it used to be, especially the huge prestige brought to him by ending the Black Tide, which has made him a formidable existence in the entire Dawson Federation!
On closer inspection, it can be seen that these black armors are actually divided into two styles - one is chalk armor, with two eagle wing-like sheets raised at the top of the plate helmet, and the other is chain mail, which is not fully covered like plate armor, but shows most of the face, with a small eagle head carved in the center of the helmet.
Although most of the people present were not professionals in the field of blacksmiths, they could easily see that the quality of the blackboard armor was undoubtedly much higher than that of the black chain mail, giving people a sense of calm atmosphere and cold slaughter!
"Bang!" "Bang!"
At this time, on the main road in the southwest, a special team of 1,000 people came over!
First of all, the armor, each of these thousand people is wearing a pair of blackboard armor, which means that each of them is a black wind knight with a strength of the fourth order or above! But if you look closely, you can find that the blackboard armor worn by these people is slightly different from the blackboard armor worn by the black wind knights traveling in other directions - the two sides on the top of their helmets are not a pair of eagle wings, but a pair of dragon wings!
The difference in weapons - like the Knights of the Black Wind in other directions, they also carry a knight's shield and a half-sword at their waist, but like the helmet, the sword grid of these half-swords is not a pair of eagle wings, but a pair of dragon wings!
Don't look at these are just subtle surprises, it doesn't seem to matter, you must know that these classes are all standard equipment, if they don't have their special significance, there is no need to make this kind of 'alternative' design additionally!
Finally, there is the difference in momentum - although the black knights in other directions also give people a feeling of being in high spirits, but these black knights wearing dragon wing plate armor make people feel a cold aura! In the process of their march, it seems that an invisible cold air overflows from them, making everyone can't help but give birth to a kind of cold from the bone marrow! Looking at these black knights, many citizens couldn't help but suspect that what they saw was not a living human at all, but some metal puppets who only knew how to kill, just like the brass puppets that once flourished during the Fast period!
However, if these dragon-winged black knights were more shocking to the citizens who came to watch the ceremony, then the other team of 1,000 people who came from the southwest in parallel with these dragon-winged black knights made them feel terrified, and many people even began to scream uneasily - because what they saw was an abyss demon with burning eyes burning with flames!
The Five Holy Spirits are above, and they dare to swear by their souls that what they have seen is definitely a real abyss demon! This, this is too crazy!
However, the riot did not take place, because there were a large number of Lyra Patrol Guards and Patrols on both sides of the street to maintain order, and at the same time, because these Abyssal Demons were also wearing the standard armor that represented the Black Wind Territory! In other words, these Abyssal Demons were probably demonic mercenaries recruited by Lord Viscount from his Abyss Colony (there are probably not many people in Lyra Holy City who do not know that Ratche has a huge colony on the thirty-fifth floor of the Abyss)! Although some people found it really difficult to accept the Abyssal Demon as a knight who guarded the territory, they couldn't interfere with the decision made by the Viscount......
Of course, the black armor worn by these abyssal demons is very different from the eagle wing plate armor or the dragon wing plate armor, after all, the huge difference in body characteristics between the abyssal demons and humans is there, and what these abyssal demons wear is more like a perforated metal plaid shirt, well, that is, the abyssal version of chain mail.
If the Dragonwing Thousand Men made the citizens watching the ceremony feel the cold to the bone, then these Abyssal Demons made everyone feel the blazing magma! Even though these Abyss Demons only seem to have their eyes on fire, to the eyes of the surrounding citizens, they are like moving furnaces! What's more, it's the end of April! So many of the citizens who happened to be standing on the side of the street, closer to the Abyss Thousand Troops, couldn't help but have a layer of fine sweat on their faces!
It is truly a race that lives in magma all day long! At this, those citizens who could not stand the heat could not help but sigh in their hearts. However, most of them did not have much resentment towards the citizens of the abyssal demons that suddenly appeared, but only some instinctive hostility.
Although during the Fast period, the Fast Empire and the Abyss had been at war for many years, and the various races of the Abyss had once caused extremely serious disasters to the Valley of Dawn and even the entire Blanca continent, but now that 10,000 years have passed since the Battle of Dusk, no matter how great the hatred has faded with the passing of the ancestors.
Therefore, in the entire Valley of the Dawn, the most hostile to the Abyss is undoubtedly the Karachi Magic Empire - since the founding of the country, this empire, which claims to inherit the orthodoxy of the Fast Empire, has broken out several large-scale battles with various races in the Abyss! Especially during the Second 'Deep Card War', when the Karachi Empire was powerless to take care of others, many slave heroes in the current Dawson Federation rose up, successfully defeated the garrison of the Karachi Empire, and finally created the current Dawson Free Federation in one fell swoop!
In short, although the appearance of these abyssal demons made the vast majority of people present feel abrupt, at least it was still within the acceptable range.
At 8:50, under the watchful eye of everyone, Leitch, who was also wearing a blackboard armor, and five administrators, including Leitch's fiancée Mavis, former Queen Davies of Abidjan, and tax collector Shalang, began to slowly enter the clock square!
