Chapter 278: The Holy Court

Unlike Roland's previous ethereal imagination of the Holy Court, Roland was now sitting on the back of the light with two other people, shuttling under a dark sky.

The ground below was covered with black stones, and steam was rising from the cracks in the earth. The terrain is clearly unsuitable for plant growth, so only some misshapen vegetation can continue to grow in the land below.

In addition, there are rocky mountains all over the place, and the mountains are all black, and many of them are towering into the clouds, and the end is not visible. Moreover, the distance between these mountains is still very short, and the light can only cross the flanks between the mountains many times, and the scene is really thrilling, which provokes Gray to exclaim again and again.

Roland's mind at this time was not at all on this spectacle. All he was thinking about now was what he would do when he arrived at the Holy Court, and how he would not show his stuff.

Although Sharon had already told Roland that Dingurnier didn't like to deal with people very much, so he could deal with most people in the past as long as he put on an indifferent expression. But for some reason, Roland still felt nervous, and his body began to stiffen.

Suddenly, the light rose into the sky, swaying through the thick clouds, and the sunlight instantly sprinkled on everyone's faces, very dazzling, Roland couldn't help but close his eyes.

When Roland was finally able to adapt to the light, he found that the scene before him was truly beautiful.

Instead of the gloom under the clouds, everything here is lit up by daylight, and even the clouds below are shining.

And the peaks of those strange and rugged mountains are also in full view at this moment. Different from the dark and treacherous part of the lower part, most of the top of the mountain is lush and overgrown with all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, and it really looks like a fairyland.

"It's almost there. Sharon reminded.

The light was now slowly approaching the largest peak in the clouds.

The summit is covered with a variety of buildings, making it look like a small city. Unlike the solemnity and heaviness of Roland's imagination, from a distance, the mountain peaks are full of traces of technology.

There is a huge platform extending to the clouds outside, and there are various rappelling equipment on it, although the number of buildings in the city is not much, but it is obviously much larger than the volume on the ground, and the functions are not the same, and the whole city gives people a highly civilized feeling.

Sharon let the light descend on the platform, and this was the first time Roland had truly set foot on the land of the Holy Court. For him, everything here is new and exotic.

"Later, you will follow me to meet the members of the Sanctuary Council, the other dragon knights. You don't have to react to ordinary people on the road, but if you meet a high-ranking Holy Inquisitor, then you can decide whether you want to talk or not according to the hints I gave you. And," said Sharon, who paused slightly, then continued, "Don't call me an adult in the future, just call me by my first name like he did." ”

Then, Sharon took Roland and Gray and began to walk towards the largest main hall in the city.

Roland looked around cautiously as he walked.

He found that on the streets, in the square, from time to time people walked in pairs, most of them were expressionless, the pace was rapid and brisk, and he could see that the pace of life here was quite fast.

"Lord Dingenier, Lord Sharon. From time to time, people who met them stopped and signaled to them. Roland was slightly stunned at first, and then realized that they were greeting him.

But Roland thought of what Sharon had just said to him, so he didn't pay attention to the person who greeted him.

After that, Gray was sent to the court by Sharon to register the situation, so Gray was separated from the other two for a short time.

Everything in the Holy Court is going on in an orderly manner. Gradually, Roland's hanging heart began to slowly relax, and it seemed that he did not show his stuffing.

As the corridor bridge in the lobby gradually deepened, the staff walking beside Sharon and Roland gradually decreased. And the lights around the covered bridge have also begun to dim a lot.

For some reason, Roland couldn't help but shudder, and suddenly became a little nervous emotionally, after all, everything here was too strange to him.

I don't know if it's an illusion, Roland feels that the air here seems to be colder than other places.

Gradually, the surroundings became quieter, and Roland could clearly hear himself and Sharon's footsteps. It seems that the room here should be of a high level, and the average staff member is not usually allowed to come near here.

At this moment, Roland suddenly felt a chill.

As a result, before Roland could react, something suddenly protruded from his back and slashed across Roland's face!

Then, Roland felt that his back suddenly felt weighted, as if something was attached to his back!

Roland was shocked, and subconsciously wanted to push off the things on his back, but Sharon's reaction was obviously faster, she rushed up with an arrow, and Hao directly knocked the figure out with a sword!

Roland only saw the black shadow toss twice in the air following the impact just now, and then stood firmly on the handrail of the covered bridge.

Only then did Roland get a general idea of what the person was looking like. Although the place was dimly lit, Roland could not immediately see the faces of the visitors. But because the other party's clothes have the Holy Court logo on it, it seems that the other party should also be from the Holy Court, so why did he suddenly attack him?

Roland looked at Sharon a little bewildered, but Sharon's expression became a little panicked at this time.

Roland felt strange, but the other party had already jumped from the handrail to the ground, and then began to walk slowly towards Roland.

In stark contrast to Sharon's current tense state, the current movements of the person who came were still a little brisk.

It wasn't until the other party completely walked out of the shadows that Roland could see his appearance thoroughly.

The other party turned out to be a teenager, looking at his appearance, he was only fifteen or sixteen years old. He was neither tall nor short, and what he was wearing was not the iconic white robe of the Holy Court, but rather the appearance of a child, which formed a strong contrast with the strict personnel that Roland had encountered along the way in the Holy Court. The young man's figure looks a little slender, but his face is very handsome. Although the young man is smiling now, for some reason, he faintly gives people a very sharp feeling.

The boy walked straight in front of Roland. A sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and then he casually pulled the short black hair with his hand, and suddenly stuck to Roland, and his face was very close to Roland.

Roland could feel the fiery gaze of the young man's amber eyes on him, and he didn't know what to do for a moment.

"Yo, long time no see, Dingenier big ~people~. The young man spoke, his tone quite frivolous, completely different from the people in the Holy Court that Roland had met before.

This made Roland even more confused, and he didn't know how to face this boy who appeared out of nowhere.

"Rollo, you're presumptuous. Now Dingenil and I have important matters to discuss with the other dragon knights, and I don't have time to deal with you, so leave quickly and don't delay our business. Sharon was now speaking in a slightly heavier tone than usual, which was rare in Sharon, who had always been expressionless. So it is not difficult to see that Sharon is very wary of the young man in front of him. It was as if the boy she was facing was an enemy rather than a companion.

The young man glanced at Sharon casually, but his expression was quite calm: "Sharon, what's wrong with you today? You seem to be a little impatient? Or did I say a few words to Dingernier and make you unhappy? A woman like you is quite unlikeable." With that, the boy turned to Roland's side again, and Roland's heart began to furle again.

Who the hell is this teenager?

It seems that he should not be a dragon knight, so for Sharon, this young man should be considered her subordinate. However, the young man's attitude towards Sharon was quite casual, which was not the attitude he should have when speaking to the superiors, after all, the other people here were all respectful to the dragon knights.

Sharon didn't pay any more attention to the young man, just turned around and walked briskly into the backyard. Roland was slightly stunned, and hurriedly followed.

However, although Roland did not look back, he could still feel the young man's gaze, still firmly locked on his body. This made Roland feel like he was on pins and needles, and he was hairy.
