Chapter 501: The Tower of the Fallen Castle (4)

Although Chen Kai and the others had the largest number of knights in the team of knights who cleared the skeleton creatures, and they also had several spellcasters, the speed of clearing was the slowest. (The fastest update speed is on the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info) Because the Holy Flame Knights who set off in the same direction as them are too strong, they only need one attack to smash a skeleton, and Chen Kai and them need to fight steadily even if they have two dwarves to help.

At the same time, they had to be called in from time to time to help collect the loot, although most of the shops in the city had been looted, and it seemed that there was little value to be seen. However, the knights of the Knights of the Holy Flame still found a lot of valuables, ranging from scattered copper coins to small gems. These Templars spared little of anything of value, and eighty percent of their harvest was to be paid to the public as the common property of the Order. Only twenty percent will end up in the pockets of these knights, and of course some knights don't even want this twenty percent, because the motivation to keep them fighting is no longer money or pure faith, but unforgettable hatred.

These knights almost abused themselves in ascetic fashion, hoping to burst out of pain with a stronger motivation to quickly increase their strength and achieve revenge. But that's what worries André the most, because he fears that being too obsessed with revenge will cause the knights to lose their way forward. Once they are swayed by hatred, they will do something drastic, but thankfully none of the Templars have done anything drastic so far, and none of them have chosen to fall into great power in order to keep it up. After all, in this world, the way to obtain great power is not just penance, and some high demons are willing to exchange their power for humans in exchange for their souls. But it was clear that although these Knights of the Holy Flame were seeking power, they knew better that the culprits responsible for this qiē were still those demons.

Although there was not a trace of demons in the battle against the Dawn Capital, there was not a single one who did not think that those dark mages had become so cruel because they had not exchanged their powers with demons. Therefore, the dark mage is only one of their targets for revenge, and the demon behind the dark mage is the one who manipulates the dark mage in the hearts of all the Templars. Especially when the news came from the Holy Mountain that the gods were directly fighting and that several demon lords were attacking the Divine Kingdom of the Lord of Dawn, the hatred for demons in the hearts of these Templars instantly rose to a terrifying level.

So although they really want to slaughter some dark mages for revenge, they prefer to kill some demons to vent their anger. Of course, the so-called demons are not the demon lords of the lower planes, but ordinary small demons and big demons and the like, and it is estimated that they will be eaten before they reach the trouble of the demon lords, and there is not even a soul left.

When there is no way to find the little demon to vent his anger, the Knights of the Holy Flame can only target the place of Sanorath. Originally, Andrei just wanted to kill Ahmadi to get that legendary weapon, and by the way, slaughter some ghouls to vent the anger that had accumulated in the hearts of all the knights. As a result, he almost put himself in it, and caused the death of more than thirty comrades and the death of the first paladin. This kind of injury made Andre feel extremely guilty, and when Chen Kai and the others left, Andre did not lie on the hospital bed to rest, but quietly looked at the neatly arranged urns. At the front of all the urns, stuck in the ground was Cato's paladin's massive battle axe.

When André looked at the tomahawk, he thought of the scene where Cato's body was torn apart at the end. A feeling of anger and pain slowly surged into his heart, but along with this sadness, there was also a chill, a fear that enveloped his heart, as if something bad was about to happen. It's just that he didn't know where this feeling came from, so he could only look around blankly and vigilantly clench the long sword beside him. It's just that he only used a little force, and there were bursts of pain from the wound in his chest and abdomen, and a trace of blood slowly seeped out of the wound. Seeing Andre's movements, the Templars guarding the manor clenched their weapons and looked around nervously, wisps of magic light appearing in their eyes.

However, they were very strange, because the entire area of the manor had been cleared, and there were two Wyvern knights patrolling the sky on Wyverns, and it was impossible for the enemy to attack. Therefore, it can be said that the entire manor is very safe, but Andre's current appearance makes the guards nervous, and they think that Andre has sensed something.

"It's okay, I'm suspicious," Andre waved his hand at the Flame Knights guarding the manor, releasing the palm of his sword grip. The moment he let go, he felt like he was being watched, so he raised his head and looked into the distance. At that moment, he seemed to see a shadow flash on the tower of the City Lord's Mansion, and because it was too far away, he couldn't see what it was, only that it was a black shadow.

"Is there anyone in the City Lord's Mansion?" A question came to Andrei's mind, because everyone had always believed that the castle lord's mansion should be the first place to be destroyed in battle. At the same time, the information provided by the survivors of the Sannorasser War also confirmed that after the city was breached, there was a fierce battle near the city lord's palace, and several of the surviving baronial knights organized a manpower to resist there for half a day. Therefore, it stands to reason that the city lord's mansion should have been relatively damaged, and it is impossible for there to survive there, and the towering castle tower of the city lord's mansion from the outside has also collapsed in half, and only three towers are still standing. Such a dilapidated image could hardly be compared to the relatively well-preserved Spell Society, so in the plan to re-attack Sanorasser, the area of the Lord's Mansion was neglected, as no one thought that anything would remain here. But now Andre suddenly felt that there might be something in the City Lord's Mansion, and this intuition made his eyes stay on the City Lord's Mansion. It wasn't until Chen Kai returned to the manor with several large boxes of things that he took them back, and when he turned his head, he found that his little junior brother had become a porter.

Or that he was almost about to become a ragged collector, because basically as long as the valuable things looked a little tattered, they were picked up by Chen Kai. With at least five horses carrying boxes on his back, these noble Andean horses were now reduced to the ranks of the anti-bag horses. Andre kept shaking his head, and at the same time calculating how much money these things could be exchanged for. However, he soon discovered that none of these things could add up to buy a cultivated field, because they looked like a lot but were too cluttered, and many of them were small and small items. Although the price is higher when it is sold out, the sales cycle is too long, and it is estimated that it will take more than half a year to sell it all, so it can only be sold together. Once packed, the price drops dramatically, so you can't buy much at all.

It's just that looking at Chen Kai's box by box moving to the ground, Andre really couldn't discourage the other party's enthusiasm, and after greeting a few knights behind him, he returned to the middle of the camp. The manor house that was used as a healing room rested, and only a few Holy Flame Knights in the entire manor who acted as coolies helped Chen Kai put away all the worthless loose items.

When Chen Kai and the other war horses returned to the eastern block again, Su Xinghe and the others had already carried at least fifty boxes waiting for him there. However, most of the chests were filled with miscellaneous items, and only a few chests contained a limited number of gold and silver coins. Of course, the most is copper, there are ten chests, and there are more than 5,000 gold coins. The coppers were found from the surrounding civilian rooms, some of which had been corroded and had been stored for a very long time. These coppers are estimated to have been accumulated by many families for generations, but in the end they have become abandoned objects in the ruins, and have become trophies of Chen Kai and other recyclers of waste items.

Of course, not all items will be used as the property of the Knights, and Chen Kai found a few boxes containing some tattered dolls found in the ruins. It was the toy of the little children who once lived in these civilian houses, and it was important to find out that in addition to determining how many children had died, it was more important to preserve them as memorials.

Everything was stored in separate categories, and it was not until the afternoon that Chen Kai and his porters completely cleared out the debris of a street. It is stored in the manor, part of which will be used as a fee for the Order, and the other part will be transported back to the City of Dawn to be handled by the Governor. Most of that part is some miscellaneous cloth or photos of found relics, and the photos in the game are just pictures taken by magic images. Many of these pictures have a chronological significance, and even if they are more expensive, even the poorer will keep a few as a souvenir. In these photographs are the days of laughter, the days of sorrow, the days of hope, and of course, the days of despair of the people who once lived in Sanorasse. The broken frames were stained with the blood of their owners, and some had dried bloody handprints.

Towards dusk, Chen Kai and his party arrived at the blacksmith shop where they had fought. The walls of the blacksmith shop had been completely destroyed, and the faces of the two dwarves became very unsightly, especially when they saw the dwarven bodies scattered on the ground. Originally, in Chen Kai's impression, the bodies of those dwarf women and children were still lying neatly on the second floor of the blacksmith shop, although their heads were separated from their bodies, but now they saw scattered limbs. **'s limbs were scattered everywhere, as if something terrible had happened here.

"Damn, didn't you say their bodies were untouched?" The dwarf Paknon roared angrily at Chen Kai, especially when he saw the crumbled head of a dwarven toddler, his face turned even redder.

"We didn't move the body at all when we came, not even when we died, don't you believe the oath of a knight with all his honor?" Chen Kai was not to be outdone, because he didn't want to be infamous for destroying the remains of the dwarves.

"Someone else has been here," Fei Yun said as he examined the corpses on the ground, as he found a few footprints that were different from ordinary people. Compared to their own footprints, they seemed newer, and though they were also obscured by dust, they were clearly from a day or two ago. Because they were more dusty than the footprints left by Chen Kai, Fei Yun came to this conclusion.

"Who is it?" Chen Kai heard Fei Yun's words and immediately wanted to walk over to check, but his big feet were forced to lift up just as they wanted to fall. Because the dwarf Pacnon was glaring at him with the big eyes of the brass bell, if his foot fell, the next moment the dwarf would slash the axe into his head. At his feet the head of a dwarf woman** was crooked there, and if he stepped on it, the head would be absolutely cracked.

"I don't know, maybe it's not a person" Fei Yun used a small brush to slowly clean the dust on the surface, and then rubbed the next footprint with the polished plaster. When the finished plaster rubbing appeared in front of everyone, they all found the footprint to look strange because it was short. The size of the footprint drew everyone's eyes to the two dwarves, as it looked too much like the footprints of the dwarves. Dwarves are known to have flat and thick foot plates, as this makes it easier for them to walk in deep underground spaces, and the thick soles of the feet can reduce the impact of rocks on their feet. This is the result of thousands of years of evolution, but the human foot is different, it is more adapted to flat land than to mountains or mines.

"Impossible? Dwarves don't destroy the bodies of their own people, they definitely don't do it," Tridink looked at the footprints and then checked his own footprints, and found that they looked like dwarven footprints in terms of size, especially the thick toes that only dwarves have.

"If it's a living dwarf, naturally not, but don't forget that there are still a few dead dwarves here, and this guy doesn't wear shoes, it's impossible for a living person not to wear shoes, unless it's so poor that he can't even afford shoes" Fei Yun put down the plaster in his hand, and his words reminded the two dwarves of that incident, that is, the matter of dwarf zombies mentioned by Chen Kai.

"Great Dwarven King, why do you punish your people so much," Pacunon said with a sigh, and then lowered his head to clean up the broken corpses on the ground little by little, he had agreed with Fei Yun's words. Because he disagrees with the evidence, many of the fresh footprints have obvious dwarf thumb marks. In particular, a few bloody footprints made this evidence even more fleshed out, but it was just that he could not accept the result.

Pachnon's brow furrowed as he slammed the last of the dwarven corpses into the wooden crate and stuffed it into the space he carried with him. At the same time, Cui Dingke, who was in charge of the record, also frowned, because they found that the dwarf's body was missing, and Chen Kai and them were also frowning, because they also found out about this problem.

"Fourth, have you ever misremembered how many corpses there were?" Chen Kai looked at the boxes and counted them again, but no matter how he counted them, the remains of ten dwarves were missing. Originally, although Chen Kai and the others were in a hurry when they entered this blacksmith shop, they also counted the bodies of the dwarf women and children, there were as many as fifty-three, but now there were only forty-three, not including the corpses of those dwarf zombies. It can be said that not only are the remains of the dwarf zombies gone, but the bodies of the dwarves who should have been lying here are also missing.

"I can't be mistaken, there are indeed ten corpses missing," Fei Yun took out his notebook and kept rummaging through it, and then he used white chalk to mark the locations of the corpses that had been recorded. Comparing the current location of those corpses, Chen Kai found that the ten corpses near the middle were gone, and when the two dwarves saw the location of the disappeared corpses, their faces changed, because they knew the habits of the dwarves. Only the dwarves who are older or have a higher status will die in the middle of the group, slightly outer, and youngsters at the outermost. Because most young people need to fight until the last moment, and even if they die, they will be the last to die.

The two dwarves looked at each other for a moment, quickly rushed to the inside of the blacksmith shop, and then used the method that Chen Kai didn't know about to open a secret tunnel. But when the two dwarves opened the secret passage, they froze, and the precious metal ore that should have been stored behind the dark passage was gone, and at the same time, they also found that there were traces of the dwarve's life behind the dark passage, but the person who lived here was also gone. The two dwarves were stunned by the black blood stains on the ground, and Tridink collapsed directly to the ground, while Pacnon stared blankly at a broken stone slab that fell in the corner.

"We're too late," Pachanon muttered, even back at the manor. He was in a trance, which made Chen Kai and them very depressed, although they guessed that it might be that the dwarf's body was missing and made the dwarf feel sad, but no matter how sad he was, there was no way. It's just that when Chen Kai handed over the slate he found from the blacksmith shop to Andre for inspection, the situation made Chen Kai almost scared to death, because Andre stood up when he saw the slate. His face turned red and he tried to speak, but the first thing that spurted out was blood, and then the whole person fainted.

"What's going on?" Chen Kai, who was sprayed with blood, was a little dizzy, but a big knight on duty picked up the stone slab that fell on the ground and looked at it, and soon understood why Andre was so excited. He rushed to the side of the dwarf Pacnon almost at a speed of 100 meters, grabbed the dwarf and lifted him high, and roared angrily at the dwarf with roaring words.

"Why? Why are the Seven Princesses of the Dwarven Clan in Sanoratha? Why don't you dwarves report to the Dawn Capital, do you want war between the dwarves and the Hanstings? The Holy Flame Knight's words shook the entire camp to silence, and Chen Kai, who was still a little confused, instantly understood that the dwarf hiding in the secret room of the blacksmith shop was actually Her Royal Highness the princess of the dwarf kingdom. It's just that he quickly fainted, because he couldn't understand why Her Royal Highness the Dwarven Princess would run to the Hansting Empire, and even to a blacksmith shop.
