Chapter 60: The Tower
As one of the three major academies alongside the Wind Furnace and the Holy Mountain, the reputation of the tower is not that of the imperial capital, on the contrary, this new academy has a notoriety. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
There are two reasons for the disapproval: the knight academy was established for the common people in the full sense, and "there are no nobles in the tower", which was the consensus of the people of the imperial capital, and the other point was that the tower only set up one course - the actual combat class. From the first day of school, new students are taught the law of the jungle.
As a result, students who are eliminated by the system of towers often do not drop out, but are seriously injured or even killed. Under such a high-pressure system, the students who can survive are all experienced in battles, and often in the same level of battles, the students in the tower will show an overwhelming advantage.
Despite its criticism, the academy has been one of the three major academies that overwhelm other faculties with its brutal system.
At the same time, the tower is also the only academy in the imperial capital that dares to openly argue with Albert, which is why civilians continue to send children to this academy even if they know the cruelty of the academy.
No one would have thought that Spades, who had an ambiguous relationship with Albert, would hook up with his nemesis Tower, and the reason for hooking up was for a dragon that had disappeared for a hundred years.
Lin Qiu finally knew the reason why these people didn't take them seriously.
In order to fight against the Winter Dragon, Herlo, the two Orders sent a total of four Templars - two Mentors of the Tower, and two Masters of Spades!
More precisely, four Templars plus ten royal knights!
Such a lineup is enough to rival a medium-sized kingdom of Herutia.
According to the Church's statistics, there were more than forty Templars in the imperial capital, and nearly one-tenth of the Templars appeared in the north. It can be seen how strong Helo's deterrent power is to the people of the imperial capital.
After the frustration of the ambush of Ophelia, Spades sent a large number of men to the imperial capital, which was also the best time for them to pour into the imperial capital during the calamity month.
It was precisely because Albert did not share information with them before that it directly caused the guild to lose the three gold-rank royal knights hidden in the imperial capital. The original relationship also had a rift at this point, and for the spades, whoever took over as king had no effect on them, so they agreed without hesitation after Tower Academy offered them a higher bargaining chip.
If Albert becomes king, all the underground affairs of Spades will be legalized in Holutia.
And if someone supported by Tower Academy takes over the throne, they guarantee that Spades will take the place of the Lilith Chamber of Commerce in Holutiah.
For the sake of this Hongda territory, even two Templars would be worth it.
According to the captured knights, the battle between the Templars and Helo must have begun, and the wound on the unicorn hatchling's leg may have been affected at that time.
Trying to capture an existence like Herrot would have to be difficult for four Templars to join forces.
"I see. ”
Prince Richard, who woke up at some point, looked very calm, he patted the dust on his body, and sat on the ground: "The reason why they want to capture Harrow should be because of the royal bloodline. ”
After Henry I put an end to the civil strife of the Tris clan and reunited the Holuthia League, the succession to the throne of the imperial capital was all carried out through the prophecy of the Holy Maiden. However, according to the law established by the original king Az-Teris to thank Herro for his help, anyone who has the blood of Teris and is approved by Hero has the right to take over the throne.
But since Harrow disappeared after the death of Az-Tris, no one ever spoke of the law again. But now it seems that those who want to take the throne through this law have always existed, but they are only hidden in the shadows.
The so-called recognition actually refers to a ritual - it is recorded in the royal texts that when the essence blood of Helo echoes the royal bloodline, the special power in the royal family will awaken. The classics do not emphasize that this kind of ritual must be carried out voluntarily by Helo.
So the power that had been accumulated for so long finally surfaced when Helo appeared.
"I have to stop them. ”
Richard resolutely stood up: "If the ritual is performed in a forced way, it will definitely attract the wrath of the dragon!"
"But now our enemies are four Templars. ”
Susie's face was pale, the task given to them by the mentor had been completed, and there was no need for them to wade into this troubled water again.
"Who are you?"
The knight who was tied to the ground asked sharply, he didn't expect the boy who got up from the ground to guess the whole thing - even in spades, a secret that only very few people knew. Under his shocked gaze, Richard removed the bandage on his face, and he solemnly asked Lin Qiu, "This time, please help me!"
King...... Prince!?
The knight gasped, and before the shock in his heart had subsided, Sophia, who had bandaged the unicorn's wounds, led it in.
Public...... Princess?
――Who am I and why am I here?
The spade member was extremely confused.
Of course, Sophia was even more surprised than the knight, and she pointed at Richard for a long time speechless.
"I've decided!"
Lin Qiu, who was the focus, suddenly said loudly, "Let's go and help Heluo overturn those Templars!"
Hell yes.
Is this still the Tyre-Cyrus they know?
If there's anyone here who is most afraid of trouble, it's undoubtedly him. Shouldn't he be the first to stand up against this situation?
Lin Qiu explained, "In my opinion, while Helo can still help us, it is better to join forces with her to eliminate those Templars. Otherwise, when these people do capture Helo, and then turn their heads against us, it will be the worst situation. ”
However, after hearing that the other party was a Templar, he was a little excited—his strength had reached the orange level, and he had learned to combine engraving and sword skills, so much so that he was eager to know how far he was from the Templars. Moreover, he has recently discovered that the more he is afraid of trouble, the more trouble will come to him one after another.
So instead of passively being troubled by these spade people, it is better to take the initiative to make trouble.
At this moment, those Templars must have thought that they and the others were taken care of by the knights they ambushed here, which also gave them the best opportunity to sneak attack!
"And I've thought of a plan too!"
His gaze glanced at the costumes peculiar to the members of Spades, revealing a grim smile. (To be continued.) )
