Chapter 5: The Dragon Knight of the Holy Light Empire

At this moment, you see a world where many races live and thrive together, consisting of seven vast continents called Lanceloth, Grimlanlo, Helray, Osdra, Jurrant, Phyrek, and Mirella, and the azure waters that separate them. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

On this day, above the undulating clouds like ocean waves, a dazzling red sun shone on the three flying creatures. Their bodies are covered in scales harder than steel, their limbs are covered with claws sharper than steel-forged swords, their thick tails can easily crush rocks, their massive wings can whip up whirlwinds, but even more terrifying are their wide mouths, from which high-powered flames can melt the earth and flatten a city in an instant.

The race of the creature is called the Dragons.

Even if it's the same dragon, there's a clear difference between the dragon flying in front of it and the two dragons that follow it. Although the size of the two dragons following behind is also huge, several times that of ordinary people, they are still dwarfed by the dragons in front of them, and the gap is like that of a domestic cat and a tiger.

The giant wyvern in the lead radiated a crystal-like blue light, revealing an absolute sense of oppression that could not be challenged. That perfect fusion of holiness and power, the noble posture that reigns over all living beings in the world is the holy dragon worthy of the title of overlord of the sky!

However, at this moment, among the dragon clan, there is also a human figure standing on the back of the holy dragon of the highest rank. Dressed in a gorgeous battle armor with gold and white as the main colors, a pure white shawl fixed to the shoulders and long black hair tied back the head to hunt and fly in the wind. The handsome face perfectly blends the masculinity of a man and the femininity of a woman, revealing the majesty and bearing that only a king has.

That calm expression shows that the man was not coerced by the holy dragon, and his appearance on the back of the holy dragon was not accidental, then there is only one answer, he is driving this behemoth. The man's name is Kane Roland Andinal, the proud chief dragon knight of the Holy Light Empire, the strongest hero of mankind revered by all peoples, and known as a living legend.

"It's really worthy of Captain Kane, who single-handedly defeated Veesed, such a feat may not even be able to be done by the legendary hero, the god king Merceth."

A hearty voice full of reverence and joy reached Kane's ears through magic, "heart-to-heart communication".

"Although he succeeded in destroying Veesed, after all, it was a sneak attack when he was at his weakest on the day of his reincarnation, and it was not something to be praised." Kane frowned in response to the compliments from the Wyvern on the left rear with a face as rugged as his size.

It was the deputy head of the Holy Dragoon Regiment of the Holy Light Empire, Quels Yat-Hain.

"After all, Weised has survived in this world for more than 1,000 years, destroying the enemies of the world of six countries, even if the strength is weakened, it is a nightmarish super strong existence, being able to defeat such an enemy shows the strength of Captain Kane, don't be modest!"

Another woman's voice came from the "telepathy", it was the voice of another dragon knight Minael Ranje Gilian in the right rear, her position in the Holy Dragoon Regiment was the First Ranger, if you talk about mobility alone, no one in the entire Dragoon Regiment can match, and at the same time she is also a great beauty with beautiful long fiery red hair, fair skin, and a delicate face.

"Really, why don't you even say that to Mina'er, I can't be happy at all, I can clearly feel his weakness when I fought with Veesed, and he didn't wear the Relic Limit Ring at that time, otherwise I might not be an opponent at all."

Kane clenched his fists, his clear eyes darkened and deepened, this change was partly out of his unwillingness and shame that he had been able to win because of luck, and on the other hand, he remembered Weised's last words before he died--Wait, I can't die yet, I still have something to do, that man, must, must kill him......

At that time, Veesed was described as haggard, his eyes were full of despair and fear, as if he was just an ordinary old man who was about to die, but in Kane's experience, it was not the fear of death, what was he afraid of? Who is that man in his mouth? The unanswered question made Kane's brows tighten.

"Then again, the Empire's intelligence agencies are really powerful, and Vesside's hiding place is so hidden, they can even find it, how did they do it?" Minael sighed.

"Oh, no matter what, victory is victory, as the saying goes, the king is the king, you just think too much, in short, this time we successfully defeated the enemy of the world, the prestige of our Holy Dragoon Regiment will be even higher in the future, so you must have a good drink after you go back, the head of the regiment, you have to treat you!"

Unlike Kane's deep expression, Quells showed an excited look, and it seemed that he had already begun to celebrate the achievement in advance.

"Hey! Feed! I said that Deputy Commander Quells, your skin is really as thick as your shield, and the crusade against Weiside is all the credit of the regiment leader, you haven't been sent at all, you even want the regiment commander to invite you, and you will invite you! ā€

"What's the matter, anyway, after making such a great achievement this time, His Majesty's rewards will definitely pile up, and besides, the head of the regiment has no opinion, you might as well count me first, I said Minaer, you shouldn't be the head of the regiment's wife, you should be on my side, right, hehe."

"Quiy, Quells, what are you talking nonsense! This time, I have to teach you a good lesson, and see if you dare to talk nonsense in the future! ā€

As if Quells had hit the nail on the head, Minaer, who was known for her calmness, suddenly turned a large red on her face, and even her voice became nervous. She stretched out her palm, and without any chanting, several magical light bullets were released from her palm.

"Wow, you're really, it's dangerous! Captain, help! ā€

Although the flying magic missile was easily bounced open by the sudden appearance of the magic barrier, Quells still called Kane for help in an exaggerated tone, which continued to stimulate Minael's nerves.

"Well, really," Kane said with a headache as he put his hand on his forehead, but a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth. It seems that the two deputies behind him who will inevitably quarrel every time they meet, no, maybe it is because the two of them are always bickering that the daily work is not so monotonous.

In the midst of such a pleasant noise, the dragons began to lower the altitude of their flight, and through the thick clouds, the vast plains appeared in front of them. Now it is harvest season, and the fields are full of golden ears of wheat, and the breeze blows like continuous waves. Fruit trees grow in the mountains, and fruits of all colors hang from the branches. Viewed from the air, the earth looks like a vivid picture scroll, dotted with brilliant colors called abundance.

This is the tenth consecutive harvest year for the Holy Light Empire!

The Holy Light Empire, located above Lanceros on the mainland, under the rule of its 73rd king, known as the Sage King Ludea Cassel Candris, has a strict judiciary, clean politics, and growing military and national strength, and has now developed into the most powerful human kingdom, the strongest force on this continent, and has a certain influence even in the whole world. The Holy Light Empire, which has formed many armies such as the Dragoon Regiment, the Holy War Legion, and the Royal Guard, has a powerful force that cannot be underestimated, and the stable political situation has attracted countless adventurers to set up trade unions in its territory, so ordinary monsters dare not approach at all, and people live a peaceful and stable life with plenty of food and clothing.

When the busy farmers and fruit farmers saw the huge shadows cast by the three flying dragons, they all stopped their work and cheered at the sky, which was the love for the heroes who guarded them. The enthusiastic cheers followed the flight trajectory of the dragon knights for dozens of miles, from the suburbs to the capital city of Holy Light.

Landing on a huge square built for dragons, the acolytes who had been waiting there brought truckloads of fresh beef and fruit to the dragons. As soon as the three dragon knights leaped off the dragon's back, a royal attendant in a white robe greeted them.

"Honorable Commander Kane, Deputy Commander Quells, Captain Minaer, His Majesty the Emperor is very pleased to hear that you have returned safely, and urgently recruits you into the palace, please come with me." Saluting the three dragon knights one by one, the royal acolyte said in a sweet tone.

"Okay, you're leading the way, Lord Waiter."

Kane politely replied to the chamberlain, and walked straight to the palace with the two lieutenants.

Through the many palace gates, a two-hundred-meter-long corridor appeared in front of you, the corridor was paved with a red carpet inlaid with gold edges, the round stone pillars on both sides were made of white jade, reflecting the brilliance of the sun, looking extraordinarily luxurious, and the royal guards in gold armor held long-handled giant axes every 5 meters and stood opposite each other to give people a full sense of majesty.

At the end of the cloister is the king's palace, and all the walls and floors of the palace are painted with gold dust, which can be described as truly resplendent of gold. However, the most striking thing is the throne, which is made of gold and is inlaid with various crystals and precious stones, which is undoubtedly a beautiful work of art in the most luxurious. And the sage King Ludea Caso Candris sat on it, and the old man in his seventies, though full of gray hair and haggard, still had a sparkle of wisdom in his eyes.

"See His Majesty!" Three dragon knights knelt before the throne.

"Three Aiqing, please get up, thank the Holy Light for your safe return, can I understand that you have successfully defeated Veyside?"

"Thanks to the blessing of the Holy Light, we finally lived up to our mission and killed Wesed."

"It's wonderful! To be able to get rid of the Holy Light Empire, the greatest enemy, I can feel at ease even if I leave the world now. The old king's body shook slightly, and a long-lost smile appeared on his wrinkled cheeks.

"Your Majesty, what nonsense are you talking about, you will definitely live a long life!" A trace of panic flashed across Kane's face, if it weren't for the old man in front of him, he might still be wandering around now, living a life without food, in his heart, this old man is not only a king but also a loving father, and the person he respects the most.

"Hahahaha, Kane, you're becoming a sycophant, but you've been able to do such a thing, this time I want to make you the Guardian of the East, in charge of the entire East, are you willing to take on this responsibility?" The entire empire is divided into four regions: the center, the southeast, the northwest, and the guardians of each realm can handle everything within their jurisdiction, and they have always been served by members of the royal family. The appointment of a person other than the royal family as a guardian was unprecedented, which fully demonstrated the king's trust in Kane and his ability to appoint people.

Although he tried his best to endure it, he still couldn't hide the excitement and excitement in his heart, and the faces of the two dragon knights behind Kane already showed a look of joy in disbelief, which was a heartfelt joy that his head could win this honor.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for not being able to obey!" However, Kane refused without hesitation, "I am a warrior and am willing to continue to fight for the Empire, please let me continue to serve as the leader of the Dragoons!" ā€

"Kane, did you know that the Guardian is the Empire's highest honor." Perhaps having never considered rejection, the king was surprised.

"I think it is more suitable for me to fight with the invisible enemy than the invisible battle in the court, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"Kane, Kane, do you really dare to speak, are you accusing my court of being too corrupt?"

"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant!" Perhaps sensing that his words were inappropriate, Kane quickly lowered his face to the ground.

"Hahaha," the king did not blame, but let out a cheerful hearty laugh, "Raise your head, I'm just joking with you, there are indeed some problems in the current court, and I won't force you." Although I feel a little pity, I would like to ask you to continue to serve as the leader of the Dragoon Regiment and serve the country! ā€

"Thank you so much, I'll do my best!"

In the end, the audience did not receive any real reward, because the king's reward was rejected by Kane under the righteous excuse of "please use it for the construction of the empire", and instead Kane handed over the large amount of treasure seized from the underground fortress of Veesside to the treasury.

"Commander, even if you have no desires and no desires, you should consider us, how can you push away the king's rewards."

"That's it, head of the regiment, you're just too rigid!"

After exiting the palace, the two lieutenants began to complain in unison.

"Ha, it's rare for you two to have such a unified opinion." Kane teased with a laugh.

"Yo, isn't this our great Dragoon Leader Kane, an undefeated hero, the patron saint of the Holy Light Empire." The strange voice of yin and yang came from in front of him, and the middle-aged man who walked in front of him had a mustache, arrogant eyes, and a gorgeous dress embroidered with the sun badge that showed the status of the royal family.

He is the crown prince Ika Ander Candris.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" The three dragon knights knelt down and saluted together.

"Father really values you, it seems that in a few years, the people of the Holy Light Empire will only know you, the head of the Dragoon, but not me, the crown prince." Prince Ica's tone was still domineering.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince, you're smiling," Kane replied in a calm tone.

"Humph! "Without letting the three kneeling in front of him get up, Prince Ika walked straight over and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really getting more and more excessive!" Seeing the prince walking away, Quells muttered dissatisfiedly.

Kane motioned for Quells to say no more, and then he looked at the sky not far away, and the clouds were getting thicker, and it looked like it was going to rain. Perhaps compared to external troubles, the king's twilight is the biggest hidden danger that threatens the entire Holy Light Empire.
