Chapter Seventy-Three: Soberness

Founded by "Silver Flash" Brandon Hugo, the Thundering Knights are known for their strong comprehensive strength and tactical command, and in just two years, they have become one of the three major knights in the Starfall Continent.

Since the Thundering Knights were officially incorporated into the official establishment of the Titan Empire fifty years ago, since then they not only have great prestige and appeal, but also can influence the turmoil of the times.

Before that, the Thundering Knights were an independent legion affiliated with the Church of Light, and Brandon, as the son of prophecy, was originally the guardian knight of the church. The reason why the Thundering Knights can rise rapidly is indispensable to the support of the powerful forces of the church behind them.

Although the Thundering Knights represent the highest combat power of the Titan Empire, they lack the indomitable will compared to the Knights of Wind and Snow in the north, and they are a little less powerful than the Shadow Knights of Shadow Island. Although the Legion is generally disciplined, and Brandon's tactical guidance allows them to make informed decisions about unexpected situations on the battlefield, the Thundering Knights are ultimately a mercenary group affiliated to the Church, and are influenced by religious beliefs and rarely resort to tactics such as sneak attacks.

Charlie is obviously an anomaly, as the current leader of the Thundering Knights and the honorary knight of the Church of Light, although he believes in the gods in the sky, his aura of power is not a divine fighting spirit, but an extremely brilliant golden color.

The Holy Light Church has a very powerful force in the Titan Empire, and on the surface it submits to the laws of the Empire, but in fact, even the Emperor does not dare to be disrespectful to the Pope.

It's not that the Church is so popular with the people, it's just that the actual ruler of the Holy Light Church is a reincarnated angel in the divine realm. Therefore, as an ordinary human being, there is no possibility of competing with it at all.

The outbreak of many major wars was not actually the intention of the rulers. In most cases, there is a secret support from the church, which is also the most ironic point - the success or failure of the war is actually already planned. All both sides can do is let it happen, and of course no one will find out about this harsh reality.

Eighty years ago, Caesar launched the War of Unification, and the Church of the Holy Light also contributed to it. Due to the taboo, the angels were unable to directly intervene in human affairs, so they chose to build such a solid bridge as the only link between the two worlds.

However, the reason why the Thundering Knights tried their best to hunt down and kill Filin and his party was naturally instructed by the church. However, the reason for this is unknown.

Grande, Military Aircraft Division.

The clouds in the sky were gradually dissipating at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the gray light was once again shining on the earth. At this moment, the surrounding wind has completely stopped.

Everything went back to the original scene, and Ellie looked up at the sun overhead, her eyes full of amazement, and she couldn't even tell if the place she was in was a dream or reality.

Luna's body was still trembling slightly, and her eyes were staring blankly at the ground, as if she had lost her soul, and she couldn't see the slightest vitality.

"Miss Luna, haven't I ...... already?" Ellie asked tentatively.

Luna's chapped lips moved in reply, but she found herself unable to make any sound! Her eyes widened in horror as tears welled up in her eyes.

At this moment, Luna's face was even paler, and the purple silk clothes on her body were completely soaked with sweat, as if she would faint in the next second.

Ellie hurriedly stepped forward to support the other party's crumbling body, and the moment she touched the woman's arm, a cold chill suddenly spread throughout her body.

The girl felt her heart beat faster, and she tried to let go of her hand, but Luna went limp, and fell into Ellie's arms. She struggled to support the other and walked towards the exit.

However, Ellie didn't notice that Casio and Lilith were lying not far behind her, and in a few moments, the girl's figure disappeared behind the door.

β€”β€”

Casio woke up from his coma, he stood up with his swollen head in his hands, and looked around blankly.

"What's going on, is what just happened just an illusion?"

He looked at the location where the explosion had occurred earlier, and the traces of the fireball were completely gone!

"This can't be!" the magician blurted out incredulously, staring at the intact ground.

He struggled to remember the previous scene, remembering that when his magic ran out, Ellie walked over and said something to herself.

"No, I can't remember..."Casio said with a look of chagrin, looking around at the emptiness, not even knowing what to do next.

The sky is no different from when the previous assessment began, and it is still a dead curtain. The magician thought of Ellie's silver pupils, and a great fear welled up in his heart. "What kind of power is that?" Casio has no words to describe the shock.

He lowered his head, only to find that Lilith was lying quietly on the ground, not yet awake from her coma. Casio looked at Lily's bloodless face with a complicated expression, and he stood there thinking, the scene in front of him was far beyond his knowledge.

Ellie and Luna seem to have evaporated from the world, and they can't see the slightest shadow at this moment!

"I remember they were still here, could it be that Ellie has beenβ€”" The magician shook his head vigorously, the current situation was a headache for him.

The magician calmed down a little, and now he had to wake up the girl first, and then plan the rest. He bent down, gently shook the girl's body, and said eagerly, "Lilith, wake up!"

After a few seconds, the girl slowly opened her eyes, she was still a little confused, saw Casio's pale face, and said, "Casio, is the assessment over...?"

Seeing that the magician did not respond, Lilith sensed that something was wrong, and she reluctantly stood up and looked around.

"Where did Ellie and Miss Luna go?" Lilith's eyes widened in surprise, realizing that something must have happened during the time she was unconscious.

"I've just come to my senses. Casio shook his head helplessly, and continued, "Can you still go?" ”

"But what about our assessment?" Lilith suddenly remembered this and felt very speechless.

Originally, he was here to participate in the assessment of the strength level, but now he has not even seen the examiner, and there is nothing more ridiculous than this.

Casio spread his hands and said, "It looks like the assessment has been canceled, so let's get out of here as soon as possible." ”

"Butβ€”" Lilith said with some embarrassment, Locke's assessment may not be over yet, and she has to wait for him to leave together.

Casio saw what was on the other party's mind and said, "Then let's go back to the reception hall first, it's not a way to stay here all the time." ”

"Okay. Lilith patted the dust off her clothes and walked side by side with the magician to the exit.

However, when they were less than ten meters away from the exit, two tall figures suddenly appeared inside the dark door.

Casio looked at it and was speechless in surprise.

"Is it Cha-Lord Charlie?!" When Lilith saw the appearance of the visitor, she couldn't help but cry out.
