Chapter 16: The Beginning of the War (1)

The training ground was already covered in snow, and Sully asked the servants to clear a runway. Then start weight training.

He was carrying more than 600 kilograms of iron on his body, and he emitted a large amount of heat all over his body, and it looked like rising steam from a distance.

This kind of training didn't do much for Sully, and his current physique was far beyond the limits of ordinary training. Sally is just maintaining this habit to remind herself not to slack off!

After the weight-bearing training, after taking a shower and changing into clothes, Sally came to the earl's study, and in the past few months, he would also come to this study from time to time to read, which can be regarded as a kind of relaxation after training!

But this time he was not here to read the book, but the Count had informed him to come!

............

"Father!" Sally beckoned.

"Sally!!" said the Earl, who was sitting at his desk, softly.

Sally sat across from the Count.

"How's your training lately?"

"It's okay! I just don't have a clue about the promotion of the Great Knight. ”

"This step is not in a hurry, how many people in the world are stuck in this step and can't move an inch, isn't your father still a big knight now? You must know that I have been stuck in this step for more than ten years, you are still young, don't worry!"

"I understand!"

Gradually, the strangeness between the two slowly disappeared, after all, the two are father and son, and they are connected by blood. Belen is good for Sally from the bottom of his heart, and this mentality is easy to feel.

The father and son talked about some family things, and then got down to business.

"What is the matter with my father coming to me this time?" Sally said first

Speaking of business, Belen also returned to seriousness.

"I want you to officially join the Knights!"

"Father, do you agree?" Sully had applied several times to join the Knights of the Wright family, but Belén had never agreed.

"Hear me out first. ”

"Soon it will be the New Year's Festival, and I will exterminate the Sawyer and Baker families in one fell swoop. ”

Sally frowned, now he was not as ignorant as when he first came, he had naturally investigated the battle of the Wright family's defeat!

"Father! The Baker family has at least five or more big knights, and their strength is far superior to ours, have you really thought it through?"

"You can rest assured of this! After this incident, I will tell you the ultimate secret of the Wright family! At that time, you will understand!"

"Well, I see. Sally said.

"Hmm. ”

"Then I'll go down first, father!" said Sally.

"Hmm!"

......................

More than a month of calm, with occasional stops of heavy snowfall, but most of the time it was snowing. The heavens and the earth were white.

Until this day.

"Young master, the master asked you to go to the conference room!" Steward Rouse personally came to inform him.

"Okay! I see!" Sully understood what was going on, and there were three days left before the New Year's Festival.

Dressed in silver-white knight's armor, Sally walked into the conference room.

In addition to the Count, there were six knights in the room.

Sully knew only three of them.

Lem, Phyllis, and Max.

Sully walked over to the remaining chair at the conference table and sat down.

"Alright, the numbers are all here!" Belen began.

"Everyone must be familiar with Sally!" Although there were three Sully among the knights present who did not know Sully, it did not mean that they did not know Sully's name.

"Wright Sully, the fourth Grand Knight of our Wright family!" Belen said.

"What?" said the three peak knights present in shock. They didn't know anything about the situation because they had been guarding their base outside of Wright. The knights present, even the youngest Rolls is twenty-nine years old, how old is Sally, nineteen years old yet!

Grand Knight?

"In terms of knight training, the young master is an out-and-out genius. Phyllis said.

Half a ring, everyone finally accepted it.

Rouse belonged to the few people who had known the news for a long time, otherwise he would have been even more shocked at this time. After all, he was the first enlightener of Sally, so he is probably the one who feels the most about Sally's breakthrough to the Great Knight. Although he knew that he would be surpassed sooner or later, he didn't expect this day to come so quickly!

"The invitation for this New Year's festival has already been delivered. Belen pulled out a golden post.

"The presiding over this annual festival is the Baker family!"

........................

Next, there is some development of tactics. Sully made no comment. He just sat and listened to Belen assign the tasks one by one, and then the knights successively had some difficulties and loopholes in the tasks, and then everyone discussed them together, slowly overcoming and filling them, until they finally reached perfection.

And the key to all of this is Belém, and everything is made around Belém!

..............................

Three days later, the Munda Glade.

It is a concave terrain, with a plain in the middle and a vast forest on both sides, and this is the place where the three knight families are sacrificed.

There are three steps in the annual festival, one is horse racing, the second is hunting, and the third is worshipping the sky.

The first two steps do not need to be explained, the third step is to sacrifice to the sky with the prey hunted by each family, and this step can also be regarded as a comparison between various families to see who hunts more prey in the end.

Three groups of people arrived here from different directions and converged. Each family brought no more than a hundred knights.

Horse racing and hunting began at the same time, which meant that their personnel could not coincide, and the number of people involved in the hunt was fixed at sixty for each family.

The hunt lasted eight hours, and the start of the hunt was announced, and the three families entered the forest. When there is a conflict, the rule is to decide the prey by a battle between knights!

After the hunt begins, the three families engage in horse racing, which is considered an ornamental sport.

Then, during the horse race, the three families communicated with each other, and the relationship was somewhat relaxed.

Of course, horse racing doesn't take long, and the next thing is the core of the annual festival. The heads of the three families get together and negotiate some plans for the coming year, which is the real purpose of the previous year's festival.

However, this year's festival has changed its taste.

The armor of the knights of the other two families is black, but the patterns on the body are different. Sally rode his war horse, beside Belen. Before he made a move, no one could know that he was a great knight.

The heads of the other two families also rode their horses at the front.

The patriarch of the Baker family, Taylor Baker is a bearded, middle-aged man with a spear in his hand, and this family is a family of gunriders like the Wright family.

The patriarch of the Sawyer family was an emaciated man who looked slightly younger. Armed with a long sword at the waist, they are a family of sword knights.

Not long after, after the elaborate etiquette, the presiding officer of the Baker family announced the beginning of the hunt.

The knights of each family divided into three and rushed into the forest.

This New Year's festival is destined to be bloody.

Belen has already ordered the knights involved in the hunt to kill the knights of the Sawyer family directly when they encounter them, and don't touch the people of the Baker family first.

This was to avoid the knights of the two families uniting.

Naturally, it won't be long to hide, but Belen didn't think about it for long.

Half an hour, because the entrances of the three families into the forest are different, as long as they don't deliberately find faults, they will meet at least half an hour later.

Belen's plan was to deal with the Sawyer family first.

Before, because his family was stronger than the two of them, they could be united, and now, their strength is almost the same as that of the Baker family, so is the Baker family willing to watch the two families lose, and then pick up a bargain, or will they help the Sawyer family?

.....................

The hunt had begun for almost an hour, and the horse racing was almost over. The patriarchs of the three families sat on their horses wrapped in animal skin robes and chatted about some dispensables. As usual, everyone thought it was a snake, and then discussed the cake for next year!

"I'll pee one, you guys talk first!" said the bearded Baker patriarch.

"Good!"

Taylor Baker dismounts and steps aside!

Suddenly, a dark shadow crossed Kerley Sawyer's eyes.

"Poof!" a pitch-black spear plunged directly into Klee's neck.

Sully was also surprised, he didn't expect to do it so soon. Anyway, where did my father's weapon come from?

The heads of the three families chatted, and the weapons were naturally held by the people below, otherwise who could rest assured!

But now was not the time to think about it, and Sully quickly pulled a flare out of his arms.

"Chirp!" a red spark exploded in the air in an instant!

"Kill!" Sally shouted!

Belen drew his pitch-black spear at once, blood splattered. At that moment, Sully seemed to see something on the tip of the gun.

But in an instant, Sally recovered and concentrated on the situation in front of him.

At this time, the people of the Baker family had already reacted.

At this time, another flare burst open, which was the signal flare of the Sawyer family.

"Where did he get his weapon?" Taylor asked, tugging at Rocky Baker's collar, to show his excitement.

"No... I don't know!" Loki said, and when he saw it, the Wright Master's spear was already stuck in Klee's neck.

A great knight at the pinnacle died like this, in less than two seconds!

While the two were talking, the two sides were already scuffling together!

Sully's opponent is another great knight of the Sawyer family, Mark Sawyer. This is what he asked for. Belen worked with the knights in the family to clean up the remaining knights of the Sawyer family.

Sully swept one shot at a time, directly hitting the opponent's long sword trembling.

Mark's fighting spirit exploded, and Sally also broke out with a strong fighting spirit, and the two fought together.

"That guy is Belen's son?" Taylor asked again.

At the beginning, he asked once who the strong man who was stronger than a bear was and why he was by Belen's side, and then Loki said that he was Belen's son.

"I... I don't know!" Loki wasn't so sure at this point. Isn't Belen's son less than twenty? But that guy is clearly a big knight!

"Head of the house, leave this alone, what should we do now?" This is the most important thing, do they retreat or what?

"......" Taylor's brain was thinking at great speed.
