In the seventeenth year of the Lan calendar, there was an evil dragon that rose in the north of the mountain, devoured countless livestock and villagers, and plundered tens of millions of treasures.

Emperor Yuantai led the Guards Army to fight for it, and slaughtered the dragon on the top of the Heavenly Limit Mountain.

Collect dragon scales, dragon skin, dragon bones, dragon teeth, dragon tendons, and dragon blood are innumerable.

The dragon scales are cast by a good craftsman, and the dragon skin makes the beautiful woman tanned her clothes. The keels are all made into spears, and the dragon's teeth are carved into short knives.

The dragon's tendon turned into a longbow, and the dragon's blood prepared the potion.

Since the age of the saints, the dragon clan last appeared on the continent, slaughtered by Emperor Yuantai, and the proceeds were given to the Guards Legion, nicknamed the Royal Knights.

——

The Orchid Guard Legion may not be able to compare with the Blazing Legion's conquering spirit of dominating the world without losing a single defeat in the history of war, and the establishment of 400 cannot be compared with the 3,000 Blazing Flame Army.

But in the hearts of the world, if there is an army that can go head-to-head with the Blazing Legion, then there is only this Orchid Leaf Guard.

Not only because they have the most luxurious dragon equipment in the world, but also because their constituents are the geniuses closest to the hidden race among thousands of ordinary human beings, who have given up their so-called glory and are willing to build for the stone.

However, such a corps should not have appeared here.

This is a real important weapon of the country, unlike the Blazing Legion, which was divided and established after the death of the original Emperor, the command of the Lanye Guard Legion has always been firmly controlled by the royal family.

What is even more commendable is that this legion has maintained its combat effectiveness in its heyday.

The sixth family surnamed Lan is also the most special group of nobles surnamed Lan, they do not exist in the form of clans, these are four hundred independent families, and their only bond is the military emblem that is still engraved on their doors.

Orchid Leaf Guards Legion.

Four hundred families, with a period of one hundred years, have cultivated four hundred talents who can enter the Ye Ye Academy, and the future destination of these talents is to rejoin the Lanye Guards Legion and dedicate their strength to this strongest legion of the human race.

Perhaps over time, some of them will forget their mission and gradually become corrupted by the luxurious and glamorous life of the Lan aristocracy, but today, only a hundred years after the founding of the country, they still maintain those original traditions.

Do not drink alcohol, do not drive in a car, prohibit hunting, and do not participate in government politics.

In a sense, in this Guards Legion, which spans nearly 100 years old, whether it is a young man with strong blood or an old man with white hair, the life they live is closer to the pure suffering of an ascetic.

If they ignore the status and courtesy they have obtained that match the nobles surnamed Lan, they are like a group of poorest soldiers.

"Ranye Guards." Ge Sheng sighed slightly.

With such an imposing and oppressive army, only the Blazing Legion has ever had in his memory.

The Heavy Knights are over level 20 and have top-level dragon equipment, and even at their lowest ebb, there are three Heavenly Realm powerhouses in the Zero Army.

This can be called the existence of the strongest inhibitory force in the empire, why did it suddenly appear here at this time?

Even if they only had a few hundred and forty horsemen, if they charged in formation, even if they were in front of a heavy infantry formation of 10,000 units, they could cut through like red-hot knives cutting butter.

But here is just an ordinary team of people, and a few mercenary groups that can barely be regarded as elites.

It is no exaggeration to say that it only takes one swarm charge, not to mention the rudimentary defense built with wooden carts, not to mention the crossbow machines that are in their hands.

As long as they wanted, even if it was a huge and impregnable city in front of them, one hundred and forty-one dragon bone spears thrown with all their might in the charge was enough to destroy the bluestone city wall that was more than three feet long.

Ge Sheng was reluctant to oppose the Lanye Guards Legion, and even if he racked his brains, he couldn't figure out what the identity of the nobleman in that carriage was, and he could attract such a battle.

As long as the person inside is not Ye Xiaojiu, Ge Sheng already plans to stay out of the matter.

The mercenaries present also thought the same, so even if those silver-armored cavalrymen were already two hundred paces away, they could see the blood orchids on their chests with the naked eye.

But they didn't release a single crossbow in their hands.

Instead of letting it out, almost everyone silently removed the machine springs, so as not to cause a catastrophe due to a moment of nervousness.

Two hundred paces away, the knight at the head stopped.

They lined up in a neat phalanx, seven horsemen in a row, and looked at twenty rows.

Even if they hid and marched forward, and now the knights at the head stopped, they also stopped one after another, and the queue interval between them was not disordered at all.

Just looking at it, it gives people an indescribable shock, this is not the result of thousands of drills during the military parade, but from the unknowable distance all the way, to the here and now I don't know how many distances, this kind of almost instinctive literacy is maintained.

The cavalry at the head stopped on his horse, and lifted the helmet used by the heavy cavalry to cover his face, revealing a face that was surprisingly young, not very handsome, but his facial features were tough and delicate, and it made people feel comfortable looking at it.

But what he said wasn't all that comforting.

"Below, Lan Yunsheng."

"The Imperial Knights are ashamed to kill their compatriots, and I ask you not to resist and evacuate on your own."

Ge Zhe is one of the few mercenaries who retains his sanity, even if it is winter, there are large beads of sweat rolling down his face, and the person in front of him can completely drive the master to slaughter himself, not only can he not cause them any losses, but even the responsibility for slaughtering the civilians of the empire itself will not be investigated.

Even ordinary nobles surnamed Lan have the consciousness of erasing any city on the Orchid Leaf map, and they are the Orchid Leaf Zero Army.

However, he still remembered the instructions given to him by his eldest brother before leaving, so he forced himself to speak calmly: "What do we need to leave behind?" ”

"The carriage behind you, and the man in the carriage." Lan Yunsheng did not hesitate at all, and replied lightly.

"He's our employer!" Gozhe gritted his teeth and said with difficulty.

"He's our guest of honor." Lan Yunsheng said softly.

"I don't have much patience, to die here, or to leave alive, it's a simple multiple-choice question."

"I assure you in the glory of the Orchid Leaf Guards that after you leave, we will not harm that dignitary in the slightest."

"But if you refuse."

"Even if you will be ashamed of what you have done today for the rest of your life, you will not hesitate to take that distinguished guest on top of your corpse and blood."

Lan Yunsheng was a powerhouse at the peak of the realm, and he was also only one step away from that moat.

So his voice was soft, but it clearly permeated all corners of this wilderness.

No one answered, but in the deathly silence, a voice finally sounded.

"I refuse."

Ge Sheng looked back in surprise and looked at the carriage that had not moved since the beginning of the transport.

Someone spoke coldly in the carriage, proud and indifferent.

As he said this, the sound of the machine spring appeared to be particularly long and clear in the silent air.

This is not an ordinary machine spring, it is completely different from the ordinary crossbow machines that Ge Sheng has seen before.

It has an extremely light sound, extremely crisp, and extremely fast.

Lighter, more brittle, and faster than the sound, however, are the shot crossbow arrows.

One arrow to the west, flying immortals outside the sky.

Ge Sheng couldn't see the arrow clearly, he could only see an afterimage.

A cyan afterimage shattered the curtain of the noble carriage and headed forward.

No one had time to react, because no one had ever looked at an arrow faster than it.

Lan Yunsheng's Mithril helmet shattered under that arrow.
