How important is the king of a kingdom, especially when the king of the kingdom is so beloved by his people, which is unimaginable. Perhaps for most people who grew up outside the monarchy, the king was nothing more than the highest link in the ruling apparatus of the state, and even if he died, he could quickly find a replacement, but in fact this is impossible, and the phrase "I am the land" was not just a declaration in the medieval system, it was the truth. Therefore, in order to save their own king, the warriors of the blue lion forced their trembling hands to regain their grip on their weapons and face their enemies head-on.

"Are they really not going to shoot us?" casually tossed away the small leather shield on her left hand, and Mona knew very well that there was no option to block in the next battle. She looked at the royal guards, and asked the Grand Knight Captain beside her half-seriously and half-mockingly.

"Trust them, these boys are not as good as the bear hunters under Montenegro, but their training is definitely not much worse. Speaking of this, Atticston paused, he hesitated for a moment, thinking that some questions should be asked as soon as possible, "It's you, is there a lesson in how to fight demons in the training of the Frost Guards?"

"No, it's also the first time I've seen such a terrifying creature, if it is. The female warrior shook her head, a smile of bitterness or relief on her lips, "But whatever it is, it can't stop Elsa and me." Before her eyes, the scene of the throne hall seemed to change back to the iron fortress before the fall, and the feeling of despair and destruction only needs to be experienced once in a lifetime, and the female warrior will not allow more people to die because of her fear.

"Hey, I have to say that women nowadays really can't be underestimated. Naturally, the old knight noticed the firm belief in Mona's eyes, and he knew very well that this belief was the foundation that truly supported a strong warrior. Those who are empty of force and wisdom will only become reckless and scheming if they do not carry out their inner creed. "So, let me ask you a digression, Miss Mona, are you married?"

Well, this is obviously a return to Atticus's old habit of finding a daughter-in-law for Leon. Ever since the failed marriage between the Blood Lion and Heather, the Iron Knight has been working to find Leon another woman he has his eye on as a wife. Well, this may also be one of the reasons why Leon always actively leads his troops to the expedition and is not in the royal capital all year round. But now, Mona, who was asked this question, must not have understood what the Grand Knight Commander meant. "Excuse me, what did you say?"

"Haha, it's nothing, just talking nonsense about me as an old man. Atticus laughed, he suddenly realized that the current situation didn't seem to be so bad, did it? However, it is precisely this environment that allows people like Mona, who would have lived an ordinary life, to embark on a path that they would not otherwise set foot on. The old knight dared to assert that as long as the blue lion survived this plague, then the surviving warriors and talents would definitely make the country better, definitely!

"For the future of the Blue Lion!Belong to the Royal Guard!Cover our allies!" The commanding voice came from the Iron Knight's mouth, and its voice even suppressed the demon's roar for a while, this is the cry of ordinary people, it proves like this world, even in the face of enemies who are not at all of the same level, humans can still draw their long swords for what they hold on!

"For the blue lion!" the war cry was earth-shattering. Inspired by the Grand Knight, in addition to the soldiers who were already in charge of throwing arrows, the guards who had not dared to approach the demon also rushed to the enemy in front of the throne with Atticus. Glory, mission, these ethereal concepts have become the most powerful force at this critical moment. It's not magic, but it's better than all the spells in the world.

Cheese remembers that he once asked his teacher why the world was dominated by their race, the human race, a race that was neither intelligent nor strong, or even had almost no talent. At that time, the Lord of the Gray Tower did not answer him, and now, the young mage felt as if he understood a little. He stopped the magic he had intended to unleash and prepared another spell that was more in line with his current needs.

The charge of the guards naturally did not fail to attract the attention of the demons, and the eyes of Odor Chaos radiated a cruel light when they saw these humans rushing towards them so unreliably. It's good to have the courage to challenge demons, but courage alone doesn't change anything else. "Mortals!" the angry demon opened its mouth, and instead of flames poured out of it, it was boiling hot lava! The armor and weapons made of mortal iron softened before they could touch the hot molten lava, and the arrows that reached the demons' side before they reached the side of the warriors' heads dissipated into gas as if they were made of ice.

The Iron Knight at the front of the line was the first to feel the heat emitted by the lava, and he immediately made a judgment that he and the soldiers behind him would have no chance under such an attack. However, the thought was quick, and the distance between the lava and the soldiers was no longer enough for them to react. The archers in the back row seemed to have seen their comrades melt into a puddle of molten slime.

"Gollum!" the clamor of lava flowed past the Iron Knight, and Atticus could feel his armor soften, carrying his body with him...... Wait, why am I still conscious?, the Iron Knight charged blankly with the inertia of the forward, the lava in front of him, the lava under his feet, and the lava behind him, the hot lava should have vaporized him a long time ago, but he could still feel his hands and feet. Before he could figure out what was going on, the scene in front of him suddenly returned to the throne room, and Atticus's foot was in a puddle of liquid, making a splash.

But the floor of the throne hall was all flat stone slabs, how could there be puddles? The Grand Knight Chief looked down and realized that he had stepped on a puddle of water, but lava that had reached his ankles! The demon's spray burned the stone slabs in the hall, turning everything he passed into such a scene. At the same time, Atticus noticed that at some point his body was coated with a blue film, a barrier of light that clinged to the outer contours of his body, protecting him from the lava beneath his feet.

Not only Atticus, but when the Iron Knight looked back, he saw that each of the warriors who charged with him had this aura on them, and they, like himself, were unscathed by the demon's breath. "Why are you still stunned?" urged Jack, who jumped up to the knight's side, "Cheese's magic is not eternal!"

Knowing that it was the magic of the gray-robed mage that protected his side, the Iron Knight quickly recovered from the shock. He raised the iron rule in his hand and shouted at the demon's head

"Charge!"
