Chapter 1108: Baptism of Flames
The war was about to begin, and the Triple Alliance had already felt Liszt's determination, so the dragon knights patrolling the coastline and fighting smuggling were increased to the company of seven-headed dragons.
"Seven-headed dragon, unfortunately, loose sand is loose sand, you won't understand what kind of existence the barrier is. I haven't completely broken down the barriers, but I've touched that glimmer of law, the law of fire. Just this little bit of law makes Leo and I transcendent. ”
Liszt was patient, and he prepared the kingdom for battle, but he himself continued to play leisurely and leisurely in the red dust, patrolling the territory.
The invisible dragon bard searches for natural nodes in the Eagle Kingdom every day, and each time he finds a natural node, it means that Liszt's control over the Eagle Kingdom increases by one point. This is just the beginning, in the future, he will continue to search for natural nodes in Steel Ridge and Blast Furnace Fort, and let the shadow hang over the head of every dragon knight.
Now, he has returned to the Flame King City and made his way to a training plaza at the Royal Knight Academy.
In the square stood a group of children between the ages of seven or eight to twelve or thirteen, mostly boys and a small number of girls. The original Moon Slayer, Eagle Man, and Sapphire Man basically had them, and now they are all children of the Flame Man.
"Are you sure they're all fire-attribute physiques?" he asked Lucy and Ruth, who were accompanying him.
"Yes, Your Majesty. Lucy, who had already put on the uniform of the Grand Arcanist, and was not yet an adult but had already shown her feminine and charming side, replied respectfully.
She and her sister Ruth, twins who were mentored by the original smoke mission, have a very outstanding talent for magic.
Studying under Ake, both of them have become Grand Arcanists at a young age. One of the promotion criteria for the rank of Grand Arcanist is that the magic ability reaches the level of the Grand Magician. There is no doubt that the twins have all broken through to the Grand Wizard level.
In the future, there is the potential to impact the Magus.
The older sister Lucy currently serves as Acker's laboratory assistant, while the younger sister Ruth serves as Chrissy's administrative assistant and is the preparatory management of the future Royal Arcane Academy.
"Your Majesty, the fire attribute magic power sensitive magic array designed by Teacher Ake can accurately measure the deep nature of the fighting energy in the body of each child who produces fighting energy. These school-age children are measured by me personally, and there will be absolutely no errors. Sister Ruth said with a little arrogance.
Liszt bowed lightly: "Since this is the case, let's start preparing for the transformation ceremony of the Fire Demon Swordsman." ”
The Fire Demon Swordsman, this was his idea a long time ago, derived from Paris Flame's identity as a black dragon. Now Paris, who has become a great swordsman of light and demon, has a combat power equivalent to that of a consummation-level sky knight. Constrained by the cultivation system, he is unable to make any further progress.
But this kind of strength is already very good, and not every knight has the opportunity to become a realm knight, or become a dragon knight.
The Consummation Level Sky Knight is the pinnacle that ordinary knights can predict.
Now the creation of a group of Fire Demon Swordsmen can well supplement the lack of candidates for the Knights of the Guards - there are still too few geniuses in the Flame Kingdom.
"Oh roar!"
Leo descends from the sky and lands in front of the square, and he is the protagonist of the transformation ritual of the Fire Demon Swordsman.
Lucy bowed deeply to Liszt and replied, "Your Majesty, the transformation ritual needs the help of you and Lord Leo. ”
"I understand the process of this ritual, and when Leo needs to release the fire dragon super demon, I will cooperate with you, let's start now. ”
"As you wish, Your Majesty. ”
The transformation ritual of the Fire Demon Swordsman does not have a lot of cumbersome steps, and it doesn't even require these children to do anything. At the beginning, Paris was forced to transform into a white dragon by the court archmage of the Grand Duchy of Maple Leaf, using many complicated methods, and having to sacrifice her life.
In the end, he still failed and became a black dragon.
The current ritual is more akin to the infusion of magical power, using a magic circle to build an environment in the child's body that can accommodate magical power.
Lucy and Ruth began to direct the surrounding arcanists, urging the magic circle, and the ceremony officially began.
......
Jim has grown taller.
It's not the little doll when she migrated from the Eagle Kingdom to the Fire Island with her mother. In the past two years, his mother remarried a widowed and lame knight, and he became the knight's son. Although the knight had a bit of a short temper and occasionally beat his mother when drunk.
But as a member of the former Dark Horse Knights, he enjoys many benefits.
One of them was that his children could receive the best knightly college education in the vicinity of the fiefdom, so Jim got a good education.
After showing outstanding talent at the Knight Academy, he was recommended by the Academy to participate in the Fire Demon Swordsman Selection.
And it's an honor to be chosen.
His lame knight stepfather told him that the Fire Demon Swordsman was His Majesty's guard, the most glorious knight in the kingdom: "Jim, go and try to become a Fire Demon Swordsman, your mother will be proud of you." ”
"Will you be proud of me, too?"
"Why not. ”
With his stepfather's words echoing in his ears, Jim took a deep breath, desperate to become a fire demon swordsman. It is not only to fulfill the wish of being a child to become a knight who can protect his mother, but also to hope that after he gains the glory of the fire demon swordsman, his mother can get more respect.
He is grateful for the protection his stepfather has brought him, and hopes that his mother will be happy and will not be beaten again.
"Whew!"
The light of the magic array was a little dazzling, and Jim felt his newborn low-level fighting qi move like waves with a special force.
Then, a shuddering roar suddenly sounded in his ears: "Oh roar!"
The next moment, he raised his head, and saw the huge fire dragon squatting near the square, flapping its wings, fanning out clouds of flames, and smashing into the light of the magic array.
Rumble!
The entire magic array trembled violently, as if it would collapse at any moment.
"Leo, tap. The not-so-loud, but clear, powerful tone of voice appeared in Jim's mind and ears, and in his young mind, a tall, inconspicuous figure instantly appeared.
"Your Majesty!" thought Jim.
In the Kingdom of Flames, from the eighty-year-old woman to the three-year-old baby, everyone knows and knows the name of King Liszt Flame. In other kingdoms, the spoken word for knights is always "Knightly Glory", but in the Kingdom of Fire, many people choose "His Majesty's Glory Favor" as the spoken word.
It's not sycophancy, it's reverence from the heart.
Jim's stepfather is proud of the fact that he once followed His Majesty the King: "His Majesty will eventually rule the three kingdoms!"
"His Majesty will eventually rule the three kingdoms, and I will become a fire demon swordsman and a guard of His Majesty the King!"
"My mother will be proud of me, and my stepfather will respect my mother more!"
Just thinking about it.
Suddenly, his body seemed to be thrown into flames, and Jim gritted his teeth so that he did not shout, but silently endured the burning of the fire.
There were other little boys around him, who couldn't bear the burning sensation and cried out.
Soon an adult voice came: "Your Excellency Ruth, this child's willpower is too weak. ”
Then an indifferent female voice sounded: "Knock, he is no longer qualified to bear the magic of Lord Leo." ”
Jim's heart sank, and he gritted his teeth even more firmly to resist the burning pain of the fire, and just when he couldn't hold on anymore, this feeling finally dissipated. Then there was a burst of warmth in the tired body, soothing the previous torment.
"Congratulations, little one. ”
The king's voice was like a spring breeze, and Jim opened his eyes to see the king wearing gold striped leather armor and a black and red cloak, walking towards them: "You hold on to the baptism of the magic of the fire dragon, and then you are qualified to become a fire demon swordsman." ”
"There is still a long way to go, but the Knights of the Guards will open their arms to you and work hard to cultivate. ”
