Chapter 102: Entering the City (4)

As Lurians, the populace naturally supported Lulian's army. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Especially at this moment, when the eight honor guard knights blocked the mighty foreign noble knight team outside the south square of the city, and the eighty honor guard knights led the Lulian knights to appear, the stark contrast made the cheers a little more laughing.

A stream of blood, rushing to the top of his head. One of Locke's faces suddenly turned blood-red.

It's like being invited to an event. Obviously, I arrived first. But he was blocked by the guards waiting outside the door, watching the people who came after him pass him, and then he was welcomed into the door in the grand greeting ceremony of the master who led the whole family.

Music, red carpet, talk and laughter.

And when it was his turn, he just opened a side door and let an impatient-looking slave lead in silently!

Locke urged his horse forward, rushed directly into the formation of eight honor guard knights, and said angrily: "Give me ......"

However, the last word "open" was still rolling in his mouth, and the fighting spirit he stimulated had not had time to turn into a battle ring that exploded, and his eyes froze. The angry voice also stopped abruptly as if it was choked by a pair of invisible hands.

At the same time, the cheers of the people gradually faded down.

Everyone realized that something was wrong.

The whole city was silent, so quiet that you could hear even a pin drop on the ground.

With the exception of businessmen and travelers, most of the onlookers were locals. Therefore, they are all too familiar with the camp in the south of the city.

Every day, they passed by and were accustomed to the barracks' solid grey stone walls, black iron bars, and dark brown wooden gates. Even the weeds in the cracks in the stone walls, the rust on the iron bars, and the mottled paint of the sentry hut were all clear. As for the knights who come in and out, I don't know how many times I have seen it.

In particular, the long knight in the army is the backbone of the Lulian army, and he is a hero who fights with Phillip and the Abyss Demon, and protects Lulian and everyone here again and again. Many people can call them by name, and some of them are their neighbors and friends.

This time, however, everything in front of me and everything in my impression was completely different.

The faces are still the same familiar faces. But today's Lulian knights are wearing a set of armor that everyone has never seen before.

The whole set of armor is dark blue, which is the color that only appears when it is mixed with a large amount of magic gold. On the surface of the armor, the magic lines were swaying like vines. Faintly, it exudes a power that makes people's hearts palpitate.

This kind of power is so terrifying.

Just looking at it makes people feel like they are facing a beast, and their hairs stand on end.

And when the whole team of knights controls the horses to march in almost exactly the same footwork, this power is no longer so vague, no longer so hidden, but as vast as a flood that breaks through the ice, furious, and unscrupulous!

And it seems to be deliberately to shock everyone.

When this group of knights left the camp gate, with the order of the leader Iverson, all the knights released their fighting spirit at the same time, stimulating the battle ring.

With a bang, eight hundred battle rings of different colors, like eight hundred eagles, soared into the sky, flying and circling. In the midst of the interlacing of battle rings, a fierce and boundless momentum spread in all directions like a tsunami. It was far beyond the power of an ordinary just knight, and it made people's hairs stand on end.

"Heaven has changed into a magic costume!" the silence was broken by the exclamation of a freelancer in the crowd.

The next moment, it was like a thunderclap on the ground, and the entire city of Muni was in a shock. The crowd roared like a frying pan. The commotion was like wave after wave, spreading in all directions. The people in the south square of the city are okay, and the people who are far away on Shengli Avenue and the city gate street are crazy to squeeze this way.

At this moment, the noble knights on the street only felt like an abandoned broken ship. Countless people poured past them.

The sergeants and guards on both sides of the road who were responsible for maintaining order were completely unable to stop them. The cordon was breached, and people rushed to the middle of the street. However, none of them cared about these foreign noble knights who were full of envy just a few minutes ago.

They squeezed into the middle of a relatively empty road, just to run faster. They ran under the tall horses of the knights, and the crowd was crowded, but not one of them turned back.

"It's a magic costume!"

"Oh my God, it's our Lulian Celestial Knights, a whole hundred!"

People were running like crazy, and the excitement was so crazy that it was crazy. The men shouted, and the women trotted all the way with their skirts. The children were the fastest, all of them drilled around the crowd like monkeys, and even the old people with crutches walked like flies.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the streets from the city gate to the south square of the city have become empty. Only a gust of wind swept by, raising scraps of paper on the ground, and a few shoes that I don't know who had been squeezed off, telling the noble knights in the field that it was not a dream.

All the foreign noble knights are red-faced and red-eared.

The people who abandoned them one by one and poured past them were like a slap in the face, making their eyes bright and their faces feverish.

"Heavenly Transformation Demon Costume ......," Locke muttered beside a knight.

They never dreamed that this ceremony of entering the city would evolve like this. They were supposed to be the protagonists, but they are standing alone on the street at the moment. And that Lulian, who everyone thought had suffered heavy losses and had been reduced to a weakling, actually had a full hundred Heavenly Transformation Knights!

That's a hundred!

When did the Heavenly Change Knights come to be measured in hundreds?

In the world of knights, a knight who changes into a knight is an existence that makes everyone jealous. If a family has twenty Heavenly Transformation Knights, then in the minds of others, it is simply a behemoth!

For existences such as the four major families and the five knights, the Heavenly Transformation Knight is only of this order of magnitude. A difference of ten, or even a difference of three or five, will become a decisive factor in people's consideration of whether or not to go to war.

The reason why many families have been able to stand to this day, and why they have been able to control the dominance and discourse in the aristocratic circle of influence, is that the Heavenly Transformation Demon Costume they possess is an extremely heavy magic code. Only a madman would be willing to provoke a family with more than ten Heavenly Transformation Knights.

And once two families with double-digit heavenly transformation costumes start a war, it will be a big earthquake enough to change the political pattern for the empire!

If it had been a few minutes before someone had told everyone that there were a hundred Celestial Knights in Lulian, everyone would have taken it as a joke. They will not hesitate to put all their net worth on the other side to bet against each other. Don't say a hundred, Adolf can come up with fifty, and they all admit defeat.

But now, the facts are so clearly laid out in front of them.

As knights, it was impossible for them to mistake the Heavenly Transformation Suit and the ordinary Demon Pattern Armor. Especially when Iverson and others activated the battle ring, the momentum, the force field, was as obvious as black charcoal on the snow, and it couldn't deceive people at all.

And when this fact is recognized, another, more cruel fact is also proven.

They were pitted.

Every army and the family behind them who participated in this ceremony of entering the city were fiercely put together by Lulian.

Indeed, the Lurians did not refuse the ceremony. Because from the beginning to the end, they are not prepared for your army to show off their might in this land.

They swept the streets, hung flags, built viewing platforms, and opened the gates. Not to welcome these so-called reinforcements, but for the appearance of this team of Heavenly Change Knights. Their real purpose is to borrow your hand and slap you in the face. Help you dig a pit for you to jump on, and roast you on your own fire!

Yes, it's humiliation!

It's people who have made a clear posture and humiliated you naked and mercilessly.

Originally, in the face of humiliation, the first reaction of a knight was to fight back. But...... At this moment, the knights of the major families found themselves facing a sad truth.

They were simply powerless to fight back.

The ceremony has already begun. The mighty procession, walking on the streets of Muni City, is already difficult to ride a tiger.

What else can they do at this time, do they go back again?

That's where the most uncomfortable part begins.

Whether it's moving on, stopping here, or going back...... All the endings have been doomed with the appearance of these hundred heavenly change knights.

What Berserk Knights, what Lightning Knights, what Firefox Knights, in front of these hundred Heavenly Change Knights, are like a group of earth dogs who have been doused with footwater! Their pride, their grandeur when they entered the city, in the end was nothing more than a joke.

Standing here at this moment, the knights could already imagine how disgraced their family would be when the news spread throughout the empire.

This kind of topic is simply the best accompaniment to the snack. Whether it is in the streets or in the streets, whether it is high or low, people talk about it in between work, at balls, on hunts, in taverns. And what to talk about...... Even idiots want to get it.

At the thought of this, the knights felt dizzy, and even the sun seemed to be much blazing. The weather was so hot that they couldn't breathe.

The first to come to his senses was Sassoon.

His Knights of Lightning followed behind Locke's Berserk Knights.

Sassoon urged his horse and walked to Locke's side.

The Locke in his eyes stood still, like a petrified sculpture. It was only from the bruised tendons on his forehead and neck, and the white knuckles on his grip on the reins, that he knew how angry and aggrieved he was.

But so what?

Sassoon gritted his teeth, his teeth tightened and tightened, and finally gradually relaxed. He knew that this time, his people were planted.

However, in comparison, it is Winia that is the most ruthless.

In fact, if you want to look at your personal strength, those hundred Heavenly Transformation Knights are not necessarily the opponents of Locke, who is a Heavenly Ladder Hundred Rank Sacred Domain. As long as there is enough time and space, Locke can use sneak attacks and wandering methods to kill these hundred Heavenly Transformation Knights one by one.

And even if the army fought head-on, Locke plus the thirty Great Light Knights he led would not be much weaker than these hundred first-level Heavenly Transformation Knights. They are equally capable of slicing through enemy formations in frontal charges, as well as causing them to rout in the chaos.

However, the true meaning of these 100 Heavenly Transformation Knights is not such a simple comparison of strength.

Their significance lies in the fact that these knights are themselves just ordinary knights of justice or glory. A body of armor can give them great power. And at the same time, in this way, they tell everyone that it turns out that from the beginning to the end, no one really understands the power of Lulian.

That's the scariest thing.

How many magicians does Adolf have, and what kind of huge and terrifying system is hidden behind him to create a hundred sets of Heavenly Transformation Magic Costumes?

And when such a power is displayed, when the hidden meaning behind the magic costume these days is smacked by people, who wants to be his enemy?

Sassoon didn't know what others thought, anyway, no matter how angry he was, he could be sure that he didn't want to.

In fact, if his guess was correct, most of the thirty-one nobles would not be willing. They will carefully change the family's strategy towards Lulian and heal the differences and rifts between the two sides, hoping to achieve greater benefits through cooperation rather than confrontation in the future.

Politics has no eternal friends, and no eternal enemies.

There are only interests.

This sentence is the motto of the survival of every aristocratic family.

For Venia, though, it's a dead end. As the leaders of the alliance of thirty-one nobles, Gilbert and Locke have lost room to turn around. They are the strongest, but also the most conceited. In addition, as a member of Donald's camp, they have more or less the intention of revenge for Watts and Barnes Sr. Barneau, so they can only swallow this bitter fruit completely.

Or rather, this resounding slap in the face!

Sassoon passed by Locke and didn't stop. Soon, his knight, having already overtaken the berserk knight of Venia, followed his footwork.

A few seconds later, the knights of another family, past the Berserk Knights, followed the Sassoon family. Then came the third, the fourth......

Without a word, this alliance has fallen apart.

In the face of absolute strength, sober people know whether to stay here with the Berserk Knights of Venia or keep up with the Lulian Knights in front.

This choice is not difficult.
