Some people are happy and some people are sad, especially Cologne, who has been given a cold reception, is particularly depressed, and Cologne can't wait to return to the territory as soon as the knight competition is over, and he doesn't want to stay in Dragon City for a moment. On the way back to the realm, he poured all his resentment on Spart, as if all the bad luck was brought by him.

Cologne sat in the carriage and scolded Spart, who was riding in front, "How much money and how much energy I spent for this knight competition, you say." Now Carter and Caldis must be stealing fun, you see what we've gotten in the sunny waters. You still dislike me for talking too much, well, I won't say it, you look at how the people arrange the legion in Railton, and let them take advantage of the benefits. ”

Gobini comforted Cologne and said, "Lord Duke is angry, and you can't blame Lord Spartt for this. ”

"Don't blame him, who do you blame?" , Cologne continued to scold viciously: "That guy Cook won a championship, you see how arrogant he is, he dares to kick me directly." It's also a champion, so why don't you have any ability. You say you're stupid, I'm helping our territory for the better, and you speak for them in turn, am I raising you a traitor? ”

Spartt sat quietly on horseback, he didn't say a word, his eyes were usually ahead, and he only cared about himself leading the way.

Cologne scolded angrily and said, "Tell you Spart, you wouldn't be a fart without me." You think you're going to be the champion of a knight's tournament, you see, you can't even get the name of a commander without me, and you have to rely on me to sit in the position of deputy commander, you still think you're a character. Look at Carter, who finished eighth in the Knights' Tournament, and the result? He became the commander-in-chief of the Second Army. Someone else is only twelve years old, you look at how capable people are, you are far worse than others, I tell you. ”

Spartt couldn't bear it anymore, and finally he opened his mouth and retorted: "Don't talk about me, you look at yourself first, after all, you are also a big duke in the sunny waters, you look at your current reputation, there are a few people in the whole Knight who like you." I'm useless I admit it, but what about yourself, are you better than Carter? You can't even get a single Dimis, do you know how much you are hated? ”

I didn't expect Spartt to say this about himself in the opposite way, he was so angry that his eyes were in a daze, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at Spartt tremblingly and said to Corbini: "Look at what I have done, how I have raised this ungrateful son." I, I, hey, me off. ”

After saying that, Cologne's eyes turned black with anger, and he leaned back on the seat of the carriage, closing his eyes and gasping for breath.

Cologne was not entirely wrong, and there were some things that Prince Railton did deal with unfairly, especially extremely unfair to himself, which made Spart's heart a little annoyed. He also knew that the main reason was because of his father's embarrassing reputation, which affected him, and his father never felt that this was the key to the problem, and always blamed himself for not being productive, which made Spartt even more angry.

This time Cologne completely angered Spart, although Cologne was so angry that he sat in the carriage and began to rest, without saying anything more, but Spartt still couldn't bear it.

He turned to Gobini and said, "Captain Gobini, I have taken the Knights to garrison the town of Ronta, and I have sent someone to deliver me a letter. ”

"Oh!" , Corbini replied stunned, and after hesitating for a moment, he admonished: "Then you must be careful in everything, if there is an army of barbarians attacking, don't be reckless, try to preserve your strength and contact us." Take good care of yourself after going to the town of Langta. ”

Spartt nodded, and then instructed his knight captain, "Ladd, lead the knights away immediately, I don't want to stay with this ghost team for a moment." ”

Without hesitation, Ladd replied, "Yes, Captain." ”

As the hooves of countless horses began to gallop, Spartt led the knights away without looking back, and disappeared into the white snow in the blink of an eye.

Hearing Spart's departure, Cologne opened his eyes slightly and looked forward from the car.

Corbini sighed and said, "Spartt has already left the Duke with the Knights. ”

Cologne nodded, and his mood began to calm down, but his mouth was still unforgiving: "I only know how to run to Langta Town, I don't think you have anywhere to go except Langta Town." ”

Gobini frowned and asked, "Lord Duke, it's freezing this day, do you want to send someone to deliver some food or something to Lord Spart, there is nothing over there in Langta Town, it's very difficult." ”

Cologne said coldly: "What to send, isn't he very capable, let him go to Langta Town to drink the northwest wind, what is the matter with me." ”

"Oh." Seeing that Cologne was so angry, Gobini didn't want to say anything more, so he had to continue to take the knights in silence.

After walking for more than half an hour, Cologne opened the curtain again, and explained to Corbini, "Hey, I really can't do anything about him." Gobini, send someone back to the sunny waters, and gather a food convoy from the treasury to deliver it to Spartt and the Knights. Remember to bring a cart of seafood to Spart, and a cart of wine from Haba, and two carts of game from the mountains, and send my knight's sword to Spart. ”

Gobini laughed happily.

Cologne glanced at him and asked coldly, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Corbini coughed and replied, "I'm happy for Lord Spart, after all, Lord Duke still feels sorry for him." ”

"Nonsense!" Cologne raised his head to the sky and sighed: "I am such a son, no matter how rebellious he is, how much he dislikes me as a father, but sooner or later my ducal palace will be left to him, and my glorious knight's sword, which is the symbol of our duke's palace." This kid is arrogant, maybe I usually discipline him too much, limiting his ability to show himself. This sword will be passed on to him sooner or later, and it will be of no use in my hands, so I should leave it to him for safekeeping, and I hope that he will remember my father's good intentions when he sees the knight's sword. ”

Gobini sat on his horse and saluted, "Yes, Lord Duke." With that, Gobini turned around and walked into the carriage, took the key to the treasury from Cologne, and then he told his chief knight to take the key and rush back to the territory to run errands.

In the cold winter season, the wind roars, and the place is covered with a thick layer of snow, and the land is frozen and passers-by are extinct.

In the snow at the head of the bridge, Spartt stood alone in the north wind, facing the direction of the royal capital, his eyes staring into the distance, and his heart was full of thoughts. The snow was getting heavier and heavier, and in a moment Spartt was a snowman, but he still stood there motionless.

After a long time, Ladd suddenly appeared from the north side on horseback, and he shouted loudly as he galloped: "Captain, the barbarians have a small team in the northeast direction, a total of about a hundred black knights, probably a detachment of knights who are out hunting. ”

With a wave of his arm, Spartt slapped the snow off his body in an instant, and the knights behind him immediately mounted their horses en masse and waited for orders.

When Spartt stepped on his horse, he waved his whip and led three hundred knights across the bridge and galloped north along the snow-covered road.

On the side of an inconspicuous hill, Spartt caught the barbarian's hunting party, and the knights of Knight moved quickly, quickly surrounding the barbarians at the foot of the mountain.

The retreat had been cut off by the Knights, and the Tubis gathered at the foot of the mountain, and the strong Black Knights of the Empire did not seem to be afraid in the face of the multiplying army of Knight knights. They threw away their gifts and lined up in the snow, waiting for the war.

In front of Knight's army, a tall Toppis knight rode his horse and said very calmly: "I am the head of the Ninth Imperial Knights, Quibato, and I am in charge of garrisoning Reesburg. Our Imperial garrison in Reesburg has never invaded your sunny waters, so please evacuate the territory of Reesburg immediately and maintain our neutrality between us. ”

"Neutral?" , Spartt sneered: "Who promised you?" Our Sunwater territory is neutral with you barbarians? ”

Quibatto shook his head and replied, "No one agreed, this is a tacit understanding between our two sides." If you don't invade us, we will never invade your sunny waters, and I'm sure your Duke Cologne thinks the same. ”

After hearing this, Spartt said angrily, "Do you know who I am? ”

Quibat frowned and looked at Spart, looked at it for a while, and said, "Judging by your age, it shouldn't be the Duke of Cologne himself, I don't know if Your Excellency is the Elder of the Gobini Regiment." ”

They all guessed that Corbini didn't guess on themselves, so it can be seen that the barbarian didn't take himself seriously, and Spartt immediately became angry. He roared at Quibbator and said, "Give me less of it." I'm Spart, Viscount of Ronta, you hateful fellows, shamelessly occupying our land of Knight, and having the face to tell me here to be neutral. ”

Kuibatto was shocked when he heard this, and took a few steps back in a daze.

Spartt rode out of the queue, drew the long sword at his waist and said, "You are unlucky to meet me Spartt today, and the blood feud between us Knight and you barbarians will never be reconciled. Listen to everyone, kill them all, and kill none of them. ”

After saying that, Spartt galloped on his horse, raised his sword and pounced directly at Quibato, and the army of knights of Knight behind him launched a fierce attack under the sound of a loud horn, overwhelmingly pounced on the barbarian team at the foot of the mountain. The army began to engage in an instant, the killing cries were deafening, and the screams filled the entire foot of the mountain.

As the head of the Ninth Knights of the Empire, Quibatto was naturally not a dry eater, he raised the machete in his hand and calmly met Spart's attack. However, Spartt is not a good person, and as a former champion of the Kingdom Knight Tournament, the sword in his hand is not a vegetarian.

The battlefield duel is fought to the death, this is not like the duel in the knight competition, it is a life-and-death contest that riskes your life, the purpose is to do everything possible to kill the other party, there is no mercy on the battlefield, some are just ruthless and ruthless.

After only four rounds of fighting, Spartt took up his sword and fell, and then a bloody human head appeared in Spart's left hand.

He held up the head of Quibatal and roared at all the barbarians: "The head of Quibatal is here, who dares to resist? ”

The barbarians were stunned when they heard this, and in the encirclement of several Benite knights, they finally laid down their weapons one after another, disarmed and surrendered on the spot.

The battle ended quickly, and under the escort of the knights, the barbarians were taken by Spartt to the territory of the Sunny Waters overnight.

Spart, riding his horse at the front of the lineup of prisoners, still with the bloody head in his hands, did not return to the town of Langta to repair, but rushed back to the sunny waters with the prisoners and the knights overnight.

In the middle of the night, there was a knock on the door of the Duke's Palace, and when the guards saw Spartt appear at the door with an entire order of knights, he turned pale with fright, and thought that Spartt was going to encircle the Duke's Palace.

When the guards led Cologne, who was dressed in a single coat, to the door, Spartt shook his hand and brought the bloody head to the ground in front of Cologne, causing Cologne to take several steps back.

Cologne trembled with fear, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Spartt and said, "You, what do you want to do?" ”

Spartt replied coldly, "Didn't you say I was useless? This is the head of the Ninth Knights of the Barbarians, the head of Quibatto, and the prisoner cart behind it is filled with the prisoners of the Ninth Knights of the Barbarians. ”

Cologne was stunned for a moment, and soon his expression changed from horror to joy. He stretched out his foot and kicked the head of the man in the snow, and sure enough, it was an ugly savage face. Then Cologne laughed, nodded again and again, and praised: "Okay, Spartt, you actually killed the barbarian in the garrison of the Knights of Reesburg, the head of the Knights Queibaton, this is an earth-shattering good thing, I have to ask His Royal Highness Prince Railton for you, it is definitely a great achievement." ”

After saying that, Cologne didn't care about the cold outside, he tiptoed out of the door, and said with a smile: "Let me take a look at these evil barbarian prisoners, and see how arrogant they are." ”

After walking a few steps, Cologne came to the first prisoner cart, and he reached out and grabbed the clothes of one of the prisoners in the prisoner cart, strangled him against the guardrail of the prisoner cart, and slapped him in the face with his hand. He didn't forget to curse in his mouth: "Damn fellow, I told you to kill our people." ”

After saying that, Cologne continued to give him a few more slaps, and the corner of the prisoner's mouth was cracked and blood flowed for a long time, and Cologne stopped.

Then Cologne commanded left and right: "Come on, light the fire!" How they killed our people, I will repay them twice as much today. ”

After hearing this, the guards immediately ran into the Duke's palace to prepare dry firewood, and Spartt turned over and dismounted, frowned, and asked, "Father, what do you want to do?" ”

Cologne replied earnestly, "Spart, don't interfere with me in this matter. Although you captured this captive, I Cologne can't bear it. This people are innocent, and they have done it, and if I do not avenge the death of our Knight people today, I will not be a human in Cologne. ”

It was rare for Cologne to have such blood, and this time Spat did not stop his father, and let his father arrange for someone to light a bonfire, build an execution table, and summon the nobles of the city to come and judge the barbarians.

That night Cologne became very excited, and for the first time he was truly admired in front of the people, and he slaughtered these hateful captives on the execution bench one by one, and vented his hatred of the barbarians. Although Cologne is too bloody, it is nothing compared to the sins of the barbarians.
