456, Knight's Code
The Mopu Plane is not small, but the environment suitable for ordinary creatures has completely disappeared.
The word poor mountains and bad waters is no longer enough to describe the harshness of the environment, and every particle of matter here is a deadly poison for ordinary life.
Even if it's extraordinary, it's not easy at all.
Wandering monsters are everywhere, and they are the source of pollution that walks and brings the self-purifying plane to the abyss again and again.
Looking up, there was not a single normal breath of life in the mage's perception.
Wall is a poor mage, he actively participates in every war, trying his best to fight, to task, to obtain resources to supply himself, but this seems to be of little use, he is always embarrassed.
Although he was barely promoted to the fourth level, his life root was not complete at all, and he urgently needed resources to buy expensive advanced Cerberus bloodlines to strengthen himself, so he did not hesitate to join the war after receiving the news of the major war, and was lucky to hear the name of an acquaintance.
He once had a relationship with Adam in Katos, but at that time, Adam was still a first-level exploration mage, but now he is actually extradimensional.
He thought about it, but he still didn't go to Adam, he always felt that his identity was different, and he rashly climbed the relationship, if Adam didn't remember himself, how embarrassing would it be?
"I promised to cooperate," Wall muttered and sighed, "Eh, forget it, I just said I was looking forward to working with me." ”
At this moment, the team's scouts sent back a message: "Wall, the monsters have been found to be gathering abnormally ahead!"
Wall was in his spirits for a while, and instantly put aside his self-pity: "Wait, I bless you with your energy smell, don't be stingy with your spell casting materials, alchemy puppets and special magic, as long as we complete this mission, we can get a lot of remuneration, Your Excellency Adam will not be stingy in this regard." ”
Cerberus is the three-headed dog of hell, a powerful creature from the abyss plane, the highest individual level found so far is level eight, in addition to having strong attack power, there is also unparalleled perception ability, is a natural infiltration mage, in the fourth level of Wall's magic perception, in his level or not above his level of creatures have nowhere to hide.
The rest of the six members of the team gathered around him, and Wall carefully transformed into Cerberus form, blessed them with the burning flames of hell, and said, "Turn on the electromagnetic protection of Lord Adam, and be careful not to attract the attention of these monsters, if you don't want to be besieged and die." ”
After everyone understood, Wall came to the front of the queue, and the team members followed him in an orderly manner, each casting magic, either merging into the plane, or turning into an elemental state, disappearing without a trace in an instant, and heading towards the target location at the fastest speed.
Half a day later, they arrived at their destination, a valley like an oasis in the desert, and when they arrived here, everyone could clearly feel that there was a small amount of life and unpolluted special energy in it, but there were more monsters than them, they were attacking the oasis, frantically destroying the environment and polluting energy.
Wall raised his fist with one hand, and the team ordered forbidden: "Everyone, I guess there is a mission objective in it, if I guess wrong, several of us will fail this mission, do you want to gamble once?"
At the time of a word, the breath in the valley was extinguished continuously, and Wall made up his mind: "If you don't want to gamble, you can leave now, I'm going to go!"
———
"Your Highness, the Flame Dragon Knights are all destroyed. ”
This is a space in the middle of a crack, not a small area, but a barren place, empty without mountains and rivers, which also means that there is no food.
A man who exuded demonic energy, with two-thirds of his body tissues deformed and diseased, tore through the barrier and entered, carrying a creature with a huge skeleton but a completely disappeared body, walked up to Princess Celestia and used up his last bit of strength.
The eldest princess's eyes were red, but she immediately dried the tears that were about to fall, flashed to the man's side, and did not shy away from supporting him with her body, putting his war beast aside, and choked up: "Grand Duke Yanlong, you..."
More than 100 people gathered around the two of them, looking at him with sad eyes, as if they saw their future ending.
Each of them was dressed in tattered armor and surrounded by scrawny war beasts, but the family crest representing their honor was still intact and shiny.
"I'm dying. Grand Duke Yanlong struggled to his feet, but he didn't even have the strength to sit down beside the dead war beast, "I'm sorry I couldn't hold the water source. ”
"Yanlong... Uncle, you won't die, you won't! I need you, the knight kingdom needs you!"
Grand Duke Yanlong smiled with difficulty: "I know my body, and my partner is dead. ”
The eldest princess finally couldn't hold back her tears, crying silently, the phoenix dragon beside her cried uneasily, her huge wings waved, and she wanted to comfort but didn't know what to do.
"Reinforcements probably won't come. When I die, you will protect Celestia and protect her from leaving, even if it costs you your lives. Grand Duke Yanlong said to the rest of the knights, "Can you do it?"
The knights fell to their knees and swore to protect the king's bloodline.
Princess Celestia covered her mouth and shook her head repeatedly: "No... Nope..."
He looked at his niece, who was supposed to be the perfect heir to the knight kingdom, the Valkyrie who led the Mopp people to glory, and asked lovingly, "Do you remember the knightly code?"
Princess Celestia knew that this was the deathbed advice of her uncle, the last member of the Gaunt family besides her, and she let the big tears roll down her cheeks and exclaimed, "Humility, integrity, mercy, valor, justice, sacrifice, honor, soul." ”
The trembling voice resonated, and the knights around him said at the same time: "The strong enemy is not afraid at present, he is brave and loyal to his own heart, he is loyal and upright, he would rather die than give in, and it is not against the law of heaven to protect the weak." ”
Grand Duke Yanlong's weak interface: "I swear to be kind to the weak, I swear to bravely fight against the strong ~ violence, I swear to fight against all mistakes, I swear to fight for the defenseless, I swear to help anyone who asks me for help, I swear..."
His voice gradually became inaudible, the fire of life in his eyes was extinguished, but he never closed his eyes, and his choked throat finally turned into a howl: "I swear not to hurt any woman, I swear to help my brother knight, I swear to be sincere to my friends, I swear to love to death." ”
"I swear to defend glory and never be dusted!"
After the last sentence was finished, the eldest princess gently brushed the eyes of Grand Duke Yanlong, got up and steamed away her tears: "Everyone, we..."
