Chapter 6: King Lionheart

Time passed little by little, and the flames in the fire danced merrily in the night wind, and every now and then a piece of wood cracked and broke into several pieces of black charcoal after burning itself completely. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Several moths flew around the fire, first cautiously approaching the red flames, and then driven back into the air by the scorching heat of the flames, and after repeating this several times, at last a leading warrior burst into the flames with an indomitable cry, and the moth was reduced to ashes before it could even utter that merry cry.

The other moths, still surrounding the fire like headless flies, seemed to have suddenly gained their bearings, and one by one they rushed into the flames of death, burning their lives in the brilliant light. Before you know it, the moths around the fire began to become more and more numerous.

The atmosphere around the fire was very strange, Anthony was holding a skewer of his freshly roasted monster meat and eating it unhurriedly, his posture was very elegant, although the piece of meat quickly disappeared into his mouth at a speed visible to the naked eye, but you still couldn't be picky about his demeanor, let alone make any sound like a smack from his mouth.

Leo sat across from Anthony, also holding a skewer of meat in his hand and gulping it down, but he looked a little embarrassed compared to Anthony, and even the action of eating looked a little clumsy, but this is understandable - after all, no one can move freely unscathed after giving someone a fat beating, right? Just look at the bulging lump on Leo's left cheek and we should be able to roughly understand what's going on.

Ada with the sword in hand had disappeared into the darkness at some point, but Leo was very sure in his heart that this follower, who had not yet shown his true face in front of him, must be like a poisonous snake ready to choose someone to devour, hiding in a corner and staring at him with bad intentions, and he couldn't tell when he would jump out and bite him hard - it would definitely hurt.

As for the Anthony in front of him, who will be as personable as a real nobleman and speak in a generous manner, and will be like a street hooligan who swears and swears all kinds of old fists to himself, Leo's psychological activities at the moment are not just a headache to describe, and the worse thing is that based on Leo's current understanding of Anthony, even if he hands over the so-called Shengdan, Anthony will definitely only kill himself without hesitation after getting the Shengdan.

I can't escape, I can't fight, what should I do? Leo rubbed the lump on his face and couldn't help but sigh, only to feel that his life was as dark as the one in front of him - the future was bright.

But the troubled apprentice suddenly remembered a quote from the book: "If a man no longer has any hope for himself, what is the difference between him and those salted fish waiting to die on the beach?"

Leo couldn't help but shake his head, and a thought popped up in his heart: "Hell, when did I have so many inexplicable quotes in my head, is it because I drank too much chicken soup when I went out?" Still, Leo picked up his spirits and began to keep his brain running hard, looking for a possibility of escape.

"Oh, dear Leo, look at the cunning turn of your eyes, are you whimsical that you can escape from me?"

Anthony swallowed the last piece of meat into his belly, with a very satisfied expression on his face, and smiled at Leo: "It's a shame to waste time, dear Leo, I'm a little tired of that sandbag game just now, why don't you do it, I'll tell you a story." ”

Apparently Anthony didn't think Leo would refuse his request to tell a story, so he took matters into his own hands. "Leo, have you heard of the Lean family?"

"The Lean family?" Leo couldn't help but be slightly stunned, it's not because he hadn't heard of this family, in fact, this family is too famous for the Spany Empire and even the entire continent, so famous that everyone knows about it, and this family also has a resounding title on the continent "Golden Lion Family".

The glorious history of the Golden Lion family begins with the founding of the Spanny Empire three hundred years ago, when the people living in this land were under the rule of the Kitaga, a pagan race of people who came from the South China Sea Islands and believed in the dark gods.

After twenty years of war, one of the rebels was crowned emperor, and this leader was Charles the Great, the founding emperor of the Sbonney Empire.

However, it is a well-known fact that the reason why Charles the Great was able to destroy the Petaegar Empire, the largest power on the continent at that time, and was able to reunite the empire, was not because of how wise and wise the emperor was, but because the emperor had a commander who was unparalleled in the world at that time - Duke Albert Lean.

The Duke's exploits are incredible even today, as the Duke of Leanne, who was only twenty years old at the time, quickly rose to prominence after joining Charles the Great's rebel army, showing his extraordinary command skills. The troops he led were not only strict in military discipline and strong in battle, but also brave and brave when they went into battle, coupled with the elusive command art of Duke Li'an, even if they faced several times the enemy every time, the team led by Duke Li'an still won successive battles, and became more powerful in battles again and again.

Charles the Great, a discerning man, discovered his talent and appointed the then twenty-two-year-old Duke of Leanne as the head of the most elite knightly order in his command, which was the origin of the "Golden Lion Knights" that would later become known all over the world.

Duke Leanne led the knights on a crusade to the west, first attacking the capital of the Phytaga Empire - Lucifer City in ten years, ending the rule of the Gyteka Empire in a war. It then took eight years to quell hundreds of rebels from all over the empire, large and small, and finally allowed the Sbonney Empire to rise from the ashes of the Giltaga Empire and replace it.

Because the Duke of Leanne had made so many contributions, that Charles the Great found that he had nothing to reward him, so at the founding ceremony of the Spanny Dynasty, that is, the day Charles the Great officially ascended the throne, the founding emperor of the empire sat on his throne with the crown on his head, and said the following words to the imperial ministers and the Duke of Leanne under the seat:

"Albert Lean was named the 'Lionheart King', his descendants were hereditary dukes, and the golden lion banner was awarded to the Lion family, and the three northwestern counties of the empire were hereditary territories of the Lion family, and the head of the Golden Lion Knights was hereditary by the Lion family, and the post of military minister was held by an adult man of the Lion family. The Sbani Empire will not be destroyed, and the Lean family will live with the kingdom forever! ”

After coming to his senses, the first and only king with a different surname in the history of the Spanne Empire knelt down in front of Charles the Great with the most solemn courtesy, and made a resounding promise: "But if the blood of Vanlian continues to live in the world, he will do his best for the empire and die!" ”

So the Lion family has been passed down from generation to generation, it is worth mentioning that this family seems to have been extra favored and blessed by God, almost every generation of Duke Lion is a masterpiece, and the wise and martial arts can be called the top in the mainland, and what is even more rare is that even if these Lion Ann Dukes have talents that are not inferior to their ancestors, they still abide by the promise of the first generation of King Lionheart to Charles the Great, and have always been loyal to the Spanne Empire and will never rebel.

It can be said that a large part of the reason why the Spany Empire has enjoyed the prosperity of the past three hundred years since its founding is due to the heads of the Golden Lion Family's generations of Lionheart.

This story is almost unknown to everyone in the Spinny Empire, and every time he thinks of the words between Charles the Great and King Lean, a pair of loyal ministers of the Ming Dynasty, Leo's heart can't help but give birth to that full of fascination, such a family, how can he not know?

"Looks like you know, yes, who doesn't? By the way, I forgot to tell you, my full name is Antonidas Prol Lean, a direct descendant of the Lionheart, and one of the current heirs of the Golden Lion family. ”

Anthony in front of the fire suddenly showed a very strange smile, his golden hair fluttered in the night wind, making his whole person look more free and handsome, but it was such a young talent who was elegant, free, handsome and noble, even if he was so proud to declare his surname, but at the moment there was no joy in his eyes, only endless pain and coldness: "But who knows, to become like this" What a crazy thing it is to be a member of a family that is born great! ”
