Although there was no sweep by Liu Zheng, the situation in Marasburg was not bad.

Several villages and nearby fields were patrolled by knights with men and horses, at least to ensure the production and livelihood of the people.

Liu Zheng patted the elven horse and came to a team of knights.

"Good day, Your Excellency, what do you do?" The Phoenix Knight at the head saluted him.

Liu Zheng couldn't be a snake worshipper at first glance, so the young phoenix knight couldn't be vigilant, but a little strange.

"I am Earl Wallace of the Kingdom of Long Song, and I have come to visit Lord Lancelot." Liu Zheng returned the salute and explained his intentions.

"Ah, it's Lord Wallace, and Lord Lancelot often speaks of you. I'll take you to him. The Phoenix Knight was pleasantly surprised.

Lancelot is the idol of the young people of the Phoenix Knights, and Wallace, whom he often mentions, is also well-known among the Phoenix Knights.

The others stayed behind to continue patrolling, and the Phoenix Knight took Liu Zheng to the Phoenix Knights' station.

With the guarantee of the Phoenix Knight, Liu Zheng easily entered the gate of the castle and came to the Phoenix Knights' residence in the southeast corner of the castle.

The Phoenix Knight told him to wait at the door for a moment, then went in to report, and soon Lancelot came out to greet him.

"Good day, Lord Wallace, I am pleasantly surprised by your arrival." Lancelot slapped Liu Zheng's chest with a smile on his face.

Liu Zheng also smiled and punched back, and immediately said seriously: "Lancelot, I came to you for something important, find a quiet room." ”

Lancelot felt the solemnity on his face, put away his smile, nodded and said, "Follow me." ”

The two walked through the station, saluting Lancelot along the way.

Although there are curious glances from time to time, they still perform their duties in an orderly manner.

Liu Zheng was a little admired, not only was they well-disciplined, he could feel that they all had a focused and calm temperament, and they were worthy of being one of the most powerful knights in the Pande Continent.

Lancelot noticed Liu Zheng's appreciation, and he was very proud in his heart, but he didn't show it, which would be too unhumbling.

When he arrived at Lancelot's own room, Liu Zheng was not polite, but he drank all the ale wine handed over by Lancelot.

The taste is very refreshing, and the degree is also very low, which is quite in line with Lancelot's temperament.

"As far as I know, the Phoenix Knights have migrated from the Amara Continent." Liu Zheng said.

Lancelot nodded, the origin of the Phoenix Knights was no secret.

At that time, the overlord of the Amara continent, the Guraks Empire, was destroyed by the Serpent Cult, and the remaining rebels were scattered in the mountains and forests with the Poison Fang Fort as the core.

The serpent god Azdahaka thought that these rebels were not worth mentioning, so he sent only one large army to suppress them, and then focused all his energy on the invasion of the outer continent.

Maneus, the son of the lord of the Fangs, led all the rebels in a hard-fought and protracted battle against the Serpent Cult army.

While relying on the fortress for defense, it also constantly harassed and blocked the Snake Worship army according to the mountain and forest terrain, and finally defeated it.

The Lord of Fangs and most of the rebel fighters died in the battle, and due to a lack of manpower and supplies, Manius had to perform mass cremation for them.

Witnessing the raging flames rising into the sky, the hearts of the surviving rebel soldiers were hotter than the flames, but their eyes were calmer than ice.

The next day, they were surprised to find that the armor on their bodies had disappeared without a trace.

They searched everywhere, and finally saw a glimmer of light in the embers of the pyre, but there was not a trace of heat.

Pushing aside the embers, they found their armor, each one as if it had been forged with flame, but cold to the touch.

These armors seem to be blessed with special powers, not only do they become more defensive, but the person who wears them will also have a stronger will and superior martial arts, as if they have been blessed by the Heroic Spirit.

This miracle boosted the morale of the rebels, and Manius proclaimed the creation of a new Ashborn Empire, and the warriors who had fought in the Battle of Fangs became the mighty Order of the Knights of the Phoenix.

After gradually gaining a foothold, Manius set his sights on the continent of Pande.

He had the foresight to realize that the rebellion against the Serpent Cult was not the business of the Ashen Empire alone, and that it was necessary to unite the forces of other nations.

Moreover, once the Serpent Cult succeeds in occupying Pande and recovering the continent of Amara, the Ash-Descended Empire, which has finally recovered its vitality, will also suffer a catastrophe.

So he sent a team to the Bacchus Empire.

With their strength and relentless efforts to fight against the Serpent Cult, the team quickly gained a foothold in Marasburg and expanded into what is now the Knights of the Phoenix of Pende.

"I want to know, do you know anything about the Dreadcorps and Maltis?" Liu Zheng went straight to the point.

Lancelot frowned, he was not the Grand Master after all, and he didn't know much about some secrets.

He had some impressions of these two terms, but in retrospect, they were vague and blurry.

"Sorry, Wallace, I don't know much. Otherwise, let's go to the Grand Master together, he should know. Lancelot said and stood up.

Of course, Liu Zheng had no opinion, and followed Lancelot all the way to the Grand Master's office.

"Wait a minute, Lancelot, wait for me to get this document—" The Grand Master was looking down at the document, and a gut instinct for danger made him look up instantly.

Liu Zheng met his gaze, and there seemed to be two invisible swords colliding in the air.

"Who is this?" Grand Master put down the papers.

"Grand Master, this is Lord Wallace, the champion of the Pande Athletic Conference." Lancelot hurriedly introduced.

"Fortunately, Your Excellency, Grand Master. I am Earl Wallace of the Kingdom of Long Song, and I have come to support on the orders of King Alexis. Liu Zheng introduced himself.

"Duke Alexis? When did he become king? Grand Master was amazed.

Marasburg was one of the main directions of the Serpent Cult's aggression, and although the Phoenix Knights and the lord's army maintained order within the territory, they were powerless to exchange information with the outside world.

So Liu Zheng briefly recounted his journey from defeating the Omenwolf to cleaning up the line along the Noldor Forest.

"So that's the case, His Excellency Wallace's strength and open-mindedness are admirable. I wonder what you're here for? After listening to Liu Zheng's introduction, the Grand Master was in awe and asked enthusiastically.

"The Dreads Legion is about to land, and I'm here to ask if the Phoenix Knights have any relevant information." Liu Zheng said.

Hearing this, Grand Master suddenly stood up, his brows furrowed.

Lancelot was surprised, he had never seen the usual calm and calm Grand Master behave like this, it seemed that the Dreaded Legion was indeed extraordinary.

"The Dreadcorps is the personal guard of the snake god, and no one can resist it in a frontal battle. Even the Ash Phoenix Knights led by His Majesty Maneus can only rely on the mountains and forests to fight guerrilla warfare. Especially their legion commander Maltis, the black knife in her hand can cut the city gate in two, it is not a natural disaster that human beings can resist. Grand Master paced, his tone full of fear.

"If so, how did the Ember Empire withstand their onslaught?" Liu Zheng asked.

The Grand Master explained that it turned out that Maltis and her Jiaokui elite were both resurrected from the dead, and their actions in the human world would consume the divine power of the snake god, and their strength would be weakened during the day.

Maneus is also good at guerrilla tactics in which the enemy advances and retreats, and the snake god's main focus is still on the outer continent, so he persevered.

Liu Zheng raised his eyebrows, and always felt that the sense of vision was strong, this Manius would not also be a traverser, and he had also learned Mao Xuan.

"Do they have any weaknesses other than being weakened during the day?" Liu Zheng asked the question he was most concerned about.

Grand Master pondered for a long time and shook his head regretfully.

Just when Liu Zheng was disappointed, the Grand Master said with a strange expression: "There is a rumor about Maltis. It's just very nonsensical, and most people think it's just a joke. ”

"Please." Liu Zheng said seriously.

It is said that Maltis was fond of drinking both during his life and after his resurrection, and every time before he had to fight, he would go to the local tavern in advance to find someone to drink. If you win, you will be slaughtered after the victory. If they lose, they will be pardoned for those who surrendered. The Grand Master finished the rumor with suspicion on his face.

Liu Zheng's eyes lit up, if this rumor was true, it would be very beneficial.

Grand Master said with an even more strange expression: "And it is said that Maltis once got drunk and was also done some strange things by her opponent and left a note. ”

The three old men looked at each other and smiled with expressions that everyone understood.

"By the way, you have to be careful of her black knife. The sword had been blessed by the snake god and possessed the ability to drain life force and corrode wounds. Grand Master admonished.
