Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Legendary Knight
"Hey, hey, hey, we're here to see the king, why don't you let us in! You can't afford to offend the king's friends!!"
Shaw was about to enter the island in the center of Gronia with his two companions in Johnson's dinghy, but after the dinghy landed, he was stopped by several heavily armed knights with red lotus tattoos on plate armor and two-headed hounds, and a knight in red armor intersected the way into the city walls, and a knight in red armor negotiated something with Shaw.

"Little girl, you said that you are friends of the King of Andorra?
"Ah...... Let my sister tell you this!"
Shoey took a few steps back, and Melva behind her patted her on the head, stepped forward and said, "I am Melva from the Holy Church of Calradia, a member of the Belmondo tribe, and I am here to pay a visit on behalf of Pope Mattheus Versailties. ”
The red knight thought about it, decided to let Xiao Yi and the others wait, and sent a gray armored dog knight to signal to his partner on the high wall, and in a blink of an eye, part of the high wall was pulled up like a gate, and a passage into the interior appeared in front of them, and the gray knight also entered the interior through the entrance, rushing to report the situation here......
"We need to verify that General Atros is very wary of the identities of outsiders!" continued to speak from under the red knight's face-covering knight's helmet.
When the knight said the name, Shoey seemed to remember something, and asked, "General Atros, is he called Zero Arttross......
The knight nodded, and replied: "Yes, although he is an outsider, he has single-handedly trained and formed our Red Lotus Knights and the Otross Knights (Otros, or two-headed dogs), and the King of Andorra has put the defense of Gronia in his hands, and he is also a freelancer, occasionally going to the Hunters' Guild to take some commissions according to his preferences...... How did you know about him?"
"Really...... This former Grand Master of the Free Knights is too exaggerate......d! Ever since I was a child, my teacher, Kebreck, told me the story of the Free Knights, and Zero Atros was their Grand Master......" Shaw complained as he didn't seem to have a good impression of Atros.
There was a rumbling sound, and the city wall was opened again, in addition to the knight who had just entered, there was also a heroic blonde knight who overshadowed all the heavy knights in the vicinity appeared from the entrance of the city wall, and when this handsome middle-aged man with long hair and waist length and a smile on his face passed by the knights, everyone curtsied, which meant that he was the commander of these knights, Zero Atros. His long black and white coat struck a familiar look, but only Shaw saw the subtle resemblance......
"Wow! That's the Wind Cloak! You're a ...... from the Free Knights."
Atros was not surprised by Shoy's words, and laughed: "Hello guys from Calradia! Welcome to Gronia!
His words seemed to be ignored by the other party, and Xiao Yi shouted with a sigh of relief: "This blonde uncle is really...... Don't ignore what people say!"
"Hey, little sister~ Do you want to play with your uncle, but I don't have time right now, uncle~" He passed by Shoey, laughed and touched her head, and walked over to Melva, who was standing behind.
"Ah...... This young lady is much more mature than the little girl just now, you say that you are a member of the Holy Sect, do you have any evidence?"
Just as Atros wanted to ask Melva's identity, a faint trigger sounded in his ears......
"What a quick skill...... It seems that he is a genuine Captain of the Freedom Knights!Your old comrade-in-arms Kebrek greets you!" In an instant, Shoy fired a shot at Atros's back, and the other party almost at the same time gracefully turned around and pulled out a gorgeous saber from his waist to block the bullet, he still put away the gorgeous and practical stabbing sword with a smile on his face, and ordered the knights around him who were about to subdue Shoy to retreat, and suddenly closed his eyes and smiled at her.
"Well, your skills are also very fast~ But little sister, did you recognize the wrong person? I don't know any Kebreck, and I don't know the ...... of the Free Knights."
"It's so weak...... Obviously wearing a combat trench coat and holding a galloping sword, you dare to say that you are not a freelancer? Stupid uncle, and you ...... You ......" She began to complain about Atros's not clever lies, but suddenly remembered something, and sneered, "Hehehehe...... Do you have a pulsating shock spear and punishment? If not, you're an impostor! If you do, you're the Freedom Knights!"
Atros felt a chill in his heart, but he forced his composure and said with a smile: "It was a joke just now~ But I really don't know about Kebrak and his Freedom Alliance, little sister, you really recognize the wrong person, hey!"
She snorted, exposed Atros's lie on the spot, and laughed: "Haha! You are fooled! If you don't know Uncle Kai, how would you know that he is in charge of the Freedom Alliance? So, you are the former Freedom Knight Leader, and my master Kebrak is the leader of the Freedom Alliance that you gave him after you left!"
"What!!You're that unscrupulous disciple's student!Didn't you just send a kid to cheat my collection away last time?" Atros seemed to complain in surprise, but then turned to a smile and asked, "Hehe...... Little sister, what's your name, and what are you doing here to find your uncle?"
Because of Atros's words and deeds, everyone around couldn't help but laugh, and Shoy felt embarrassed, so he replied: "Miss Ben's name is Shoy, and I'm not here to find you, a tasteless uncle, we just want to talk to the one named Andorra...... Wait! You say Uncle Kai is your apprentice, you don't look as old as him!"
"Yes, please be serious, General Atros......!
Melva almost burst into tears, she quickly wiped away the tears to show that she was a little out of shape, and after adjusting her emotions, she said to Atros, "Poof...... This is really!alas...... We did come to the King of Andorra to inquire about something, and as for my identity, this should be proven!"
She landed a quick spinning kick at Atros' neck, but was easily grabbed by the foot, lifted her off the ground with a wave of her hand, and spun around in the air before falling back to the ground, where she was just on her feet, a powerful hand clapping her on the shoulder.
"Miss~ It's your uncle who tries your skills, not your uncle who tries my skills in turn! You learn assassination techniques, and your moves are fierce, but how can you say that the nickname of the Wind Knight Who Hunts Shadows is not for nothing! With your heat, it is impossible to defeat me and sneak in...... But this is enough to prove your identity!Well, it's quite fragrant~"
When Melva broke free of Atros's hand, he turned around and saw that his wallet engraved with the Belmondo cross was held in Atros's hand, and he immediately snatched the wallet back angrily and reprimanded: "I didn't expect the legendary Shadow Hunting Wind to be a nasty old pervert!How can you steal something from a lady's back pocket!!"
Atros laughed and said, "I didn't deliberately hide my desires, I think this is something that my unscrupulous apprentice learned very similarly~ Okay!Little sister over there, you just said that I don't look like Keblake's teacher, right?"
"yes...... Although you are both very unserious, Uncle Kai is usually much more restrained than you!" Xiao Yi pouted and complained.
"Uh-huh, I don't remember who used to run behind my ass all day long, learning from me for petty theft and picking up girls everywhere, how can you say that he is restrained? ahahaha!~"
Atros laughed out loud again, and Shoey was speechless when he heard it, and said, "So that's what he learned from you...... It's a shame, I said, how come your style is completely different......"
"No, you know, we were young and vigorous at that time, and Kai was a master with nothing to do, and I was an idle knight commander, so I taught him to steal and kidnap to kill boredom!"
"It's all serious...... Can we go in? General Atros!"
Sieg and Melva were disappointed, Atros's image in their hearts had been completely ruined, and Johnson had rowed away, and now they could only try to enter this well-guarded place, only to see Atros laughing and nodding, and said, "Okay! I'll take you to Andorra, come with me~"
"What a strange uncle......"
After Sieg complained, Sky Wolf hinted at him again: "This man is not simple...... He has too many secrets in him, and the hidden value is no less than that of the mysterious Kebrek. ”
"But we're not here to investigate him, let's go, Captain, they're far away!"
He muttered to himself, and followed his teammates into the entrance to the city wall, led by Atros, as the walls closed again with a rumble, and the knights returned to their posts, continuing to monitor any anomalies nearby.
After passing through the walls of the city, which was several meters thick, they saw a rare scene, the environment behind the walls was divided into three parts in a circle, and the outermost barracks, horse farms, and training grounds were set up, and the flags of red lotus and two-headed hounds fluttered on the building, symbolizing the knights and servants of the two major knights. The middle floor is made up of trees and a lake, and the beautiful scenery and natural scenery are presented to them through the intervals of the outer buildings. Through the gaps in the branches of the trees, you can see the innermost layer of the royal palace of Gronia, although the view is not good, but the glittering roofs and ornaments tell people that people must be inhabited by a prince with supreme power and dignity.
"Wow!!This is a great place!I thought it was just a normal fortress!!"
Seeing such a magnificent landscape for the first time in his life, Shoy couldn't help but sigh, and Atros, who was following Melva and saying ambiguous poems, stopped his chant and came to Shoy's side and explained: "You must know that this royal fortress alone is several times larger than the most prosperous city of Suno in Calradia~"
"Don't you get rid of those sour poems, and I want to see how you get along with ladies...... It is said that the area of Gronia is equal to the size of all the major cities of Calradia, which is unbelievable. Melva knew the magnificence of the great cities of Calradia, such as the walled city of Djerkhara, the ancient royal capital of Suno, and the plateau mountain city of Zhivadine, which made it difficult for her to imagine the total area of Gronia.
Although he was ridiculed by Melva, he still scratched the long hair in front of his forehead, closed his eyes again and smiled and said: "Hehe~ I'm a master of pickling girls, and the one I want to attack is a lady with a noble status like you, and the most important thing is that you are still a thorny rose~"
"It seems that you have something wrong with your brain, uncle...... By the way, you just said that Uncle Kai sent someone to take your things?" Shaw's gossip personality suddenly became offended, and he kept wandering around Atros, trying to force him to tell the truth.
"Ah...... Yes, what did you say your name just now?I forgot, can you tell your uncle again~ Anyway, when you grow up, you must come to your uncle to play games!~"
Atros smiled evilly and patted Shoy's skinny buttocks, and Shoy angrily stepped on him, emphasizing again: "Miss Ben is Shoy August!......! Don't think I'm going to take a fancy to you if you're handsome......!
"It's not scientific!!Shoy Augerst!?...... name"
Atros, who had just been joking with everyone, suddenly looked like a kitten with its tail stepped on, and Shoey asked, "What's wrong?" Uncle Nasty...... Far away in Gronia, you also know the tuba of my Captain of the Wings of Freedom?"
"Damn Kebreck...... You're playing the same trick!Little sister, do you know that little devil Faye Ogst!?" he scolded Kai a few times before continuing to ask Shaw.
She racked her brains and couldn't think of anything related to the name, so she shook her head and replied, "I haven't heard of it......!"
"He's Kebrak's apprentice...... But forget it, anyway, the Shock Spear Part, the Blade of Otros, has already been snatched by that guy, and it doesn't matter if the other half is missing...... Haha! The road to the palace is still very long, let's talk about something else~" Atros regained his smile again, and walked towards the palace without mentioning what had just happened, talking and laughing with everyone.
"This guy is so infuriating, there's an urge to kill him a hundred times!!"
She trampled on a wildflower under her feet in anger, and Sieg came to her side and comforted her: "How can you say that he is also a senior, don't be angry, follow up?"
"I don't need to say it, I'll go myself......"
Xiao Yi shook off the hand that Sigg was on his shoulder, punched him in the lower abdomen, and quickly chased after him, and Sieg, who was in pain, kicked the dust on the ground and said to himself, "Huh...... Why can I put up with the captain's strange temper...... Am I a natural masochist?"
