Chapter 58: Corpse Tide (IV)

The light particles condensed into a human form, and an army of armored knights of hundreds of people appeared in a herd of heavy war horses that were also armored under the seat, and if the divine soldiers descended from the sky to step into this bloody chaos full of stumps, broken bones and rotten flesh, they began to act.

The knights obeyed the roaring order, and immediately drew their swords and slashed at the deviant crowd near them as soon as they appeared on the street outside the church gate, and the sword blade passed by a bewitching blood line with a head hovering into the air, as if the already terrifying hell on earth had an additional team of more efficient killing machines!

However, if you pay a little attention to it, you can find that these human knights who suddenly condensed and formed from golden glow particles are not irrational, on the contrary, they are very well-trained, and they all seem to follow tactics under a very strict set of discipline control, and most of the sword swinging and slashing of the deviant people are actually to clear the space of the field, and directly or indirectly protect the normal citizens who are still alive at this moment.

They sat on the saddle of their horses, their boots in stirrups, their swords in their main hands, and their shields in their deputies, the middle shields in the shape of kites like the coats of arms of the nobles, and the flags held high by several of the standard-bearers, the knights, painted with the same sign of their glory, and on a dark background that was a metaphor for the wilderness, pale and silver-tinged thorny vines surrounded a golden lion with dancing claws and roaring.

Everyone at the door of the church was stunned. Standing beside Alice, Scambed looked at one of the flags with his mouth half open, and a memory that had long passed instantly beat his mind like a wave, and the battle axe and short sword in his clenched hands couldn't help but raise his head and tremble, "Lion of Thorns......"

"What?!"

Although the volume was not loud, as soon as the old chief's words fell, all the court officials and holy warrior guards present still turned their heads to look at him in unison, and everyone's hearts were invariably amazed, secretly thinking of the Lion of the Thorns-

One of the three most famous legions under the command of the Empire's Ancestor Calvinland, the Lion of the Thorns, on a par with the Golden Que and the Blue Fire?!

How is this possible?!

All members of the Lion Legion of Thorns were voluntarily transformed into summoned creatures and stationed in a contract item called the Ring of the Warbler as early as the time of the Ancestors, and the Ring of the Warbler was also lost long before the death of His Majesty Calvinland, so after the three legions transformed into the Imperial Royal Mage Academy in the Blue Fire, only the Golden Que was left as a Praetorian Guard loyal to the Emperor himself, and the historians of the Empire wrote this regrettable past into the history books truthfully.

However, now, following the reappearance of the Redeemer's Flails, one of the three sacred relics of the Church, the Lion of the Thorns has also broken the shackles of time and space and reached out to the Helmet City.

"No, those knights are not alive, but in a state of heroic spirits similar to summoned creatures." Alice frowned slightly, and then recognized the truth with her magical talent known as a genius, and also moved her ice-blue eyes to look sideways, and saw the person who made the roar just now-

That is, Urs, the surface of the armor where the young man held the greatsword also glowed with golden brilliance at this time, but the brilliance only leaked out a little through the gap in the armor, in other words, there should be something hidden under his armor as a light source.

That kind of thing...... Is it a ring?

The Ring of the Warbler?

Having reasoned out the most plausible, but also the most story-like rather than realistic possibility, Alice shifted her gaze to Urs's face and asked, "Knight Urs, what is this?" ”

In any case, whether it was good or bad, she needed a clear answer.

"Forgive me for not being able to explain everything in a few words, Ms. Alice, and this is the biggest hole card in my hand, so I'm hiding it from you just to be on the safe side." Urs turned half of his face to see what she meant, but the bitterness and caution he said were also true, so he replied to her in a loud voice, "But you can still trust me fully." When foreign enemies invade, no matter what contradictions, I will always stand by my own side. ”

"Foreign enemies?"

"Not now, it's sooner or later."

The young man's words may have been a little clumsy, but the general meaning was conveyed to her smoothly, and then she heard the sound of horses' hooves approaching, and in a blink of an eye, she saw that it was a small group of men and horses from the bloody streets of the corpse mound and rode towards the place where she was, and the first man with black hair and yellow skin and an oriental face pulled the reins for the war horse to stop its hooves, and the deputy who had free the shield took off his helmet and bowed slightly to himself.

The man's name was Shappel, and he was the Zoroastrian commander of the Lion of Thorns, and he had been with the young man in the Battle of the Gnoll's Cave on the outskirts of Merar a week earlier.

He straddled the saddle and gave a brief salute to the latter, and then reported solemnly: "Lord Urs, it will take a little time for this street to be cleared, and there are still a small number of normal people among the most abnormal people who can be rescued and protected, and I have just arranged for someone to do so. ”

"You've done a good job, Shapelle." Urs nodded in satisfaction and stepped forward from the church door facing his knight, "But this may be just the beginning, we still have a tough battle to fight." ”

After speaking, he looked around with the giant sword on his shoulder, originally just to confirm whether Thea's giant wolf transformation ability was ready, but at this glance, he found that everyone present was staring at himself as if he had seen a ghost, except for the wolf-eared girl who knew the bottom of him, and then the dozens of pairs of ghostly eyes turned into awe, and there was confusion in the awe, this slave knight next to the lord or this personal guard next to Ms. Alice was actually related to the Lion of Thorns?

That's a ...... It's incredible.

The nobles of the Northland court and the few paladins who came out of the church with them couldn't help but be surprised by this—but then again, with such a brave and warlike knight fighting alongside them, they had at least a lot more confidence and courage in their hearts than they had in the original church.

Urs glanced at the expressions on everyone's faces, and probably guessed what they were thinking about themselves at this moment, so he didn't care, but the next second he suddenly heard a loud rumbling noise in the distance from the street at the moment, and the floor under his feet seemed to shake along with the loud noise, causing one of the palace officials to raise his head and shout in panic: "Then, there's a giant over there!" ”

As he shouted, the court official subconsciously raised his arm and pointed to the place where he saw the giant.

When Urs heard this, he immediately turned his head in the direction of his finger, and there was indeed a huge humanoid statue in the field of vision, which was slowly bowing and standing up above the height of several floors of roof, but the huge figure falling in the eyes of the young man was another message in return.

Yes—it was the stone giant Artodido, a summon creavor that Zeken had created in Palomite using the remaining elemental nuclei of the molten iron greatsword that he had created for him.

And the direction - probably the Warm House Drunkard Tavern, where Bellelis, Dorothy and Gloridon were!
