Chapter 515: Memorial
In the month of fire, the scorching heat of Amarrington faded away, and a hint of coldness could be felt every time I woke up in the morning, and it was the same today. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the silver-gray Alvanse Palace, the great knights who lived here walked out of their residences one after another and headed to the central hall with solemn expressions.
Today, they all polished their armor and put on new blood-colored cloaks, and when they saw other colleagues, they only bowed their heads slightly, and did not open their mouths to chat.
By the time they arrived at the central hall, hundreds of people had gathered here, and most of them still had the evil aura of the war on their bodies.
Even the great knight, whose face is pale and weak, and whose body has not healed, gives people a dangerous and fierce edge, and it is impossible to ignore it.
As time passed, more and more of the Grand Knights arrived, and the attendants of the temple guided them into the teleportation array.
The great knights stood together, like a strong Great Wall standing on the ground, and the suffocating sense of oppression became even stronger.
The energy of the source power spar was injected into the magic circle, and soon the formation pattern bloomed with a soft brilliance, gradually enveloping these powerful figures.
A flash of blazing light flashed, and the teleportation array became empty......
The same and similar scenes were played out in other places, such as the Eastern Front and the Western Front, which were opposed to the other two forces.
Yesterday they stopped their aggressive offensive and returned to the city, and now there are also a considerable number of great knights and ordinary knights, who are teleporting towards the same destination.
The light of dawn fell on the magnificent plateau, the noisy wind was swirling, the inch-long grass was swinging its slender waist, and as far as the eye could see, there were tombstones standing one after another.
There are no corpses and ashes under the tombstones, but each one represents a knight who died in the battle of Dongbai, and the long time of three hundred years has made them terrifyingly numerous and almost endless.
This time, tens of thousands were added, and the knights guarding the tomb worked day and night, and it was only a few days ago that the names, origins, deeds, and epitaphs of the dead were engraved.
And today is the day when the living come to pay respects to the souls of the heroes.
All the knights who had withdrawn from the front, the legions that remained at Amarington, and the independent factions such as the Survey Corps would all participate in the ceremony, and only delegates could come on the Eastern and Western Fronts, since the fighting had not yet completely ended.
Although no one came forward to direct the management, the knights who came one after another entered the field consciously and orderly, and lined up in a neat array in the wide field in front of the cemetery.
Today there is no distinction between the establishment and the subordinate and the superior, they are all mourners, so there are also great knights who are a little later and stand among the ordinary knights.
Facing the endless tombstone, everyone was silent, and their hearts became more and more heavy and depressed.
Charon, who was standing at the front, looked back, and there was a black pressure behind him, and there were 70,000 or 80,000 people present, but it was so quiet that it could be heard at this time.
Greyjoy stepped forward and whispered a reminder to him, "It's time, my lord." ”
Charon bowed slightly, signaling that the other party could begin the ceremony.
So Greyjoy, Tempest Knight Doro, and others personally raised a wind instrument made of horns, puffed up their lungs, and blew the sound of a long horn that resounded through the heavens and the earth!
This time, the sound of the horn was not used to invigorate the military prestige, so it was not high-pitched and sharp, but only full of tragedy and desolation, as well as deep remembrance.
Under the influence of such emotions, except for the more than ten people who played the trumpet, the other knights present closed their eyes, their bodies were straight, and their right hands were heavily clasped in front of their chests, saluting the deceased in silence.
A magnificent and invisible force began to coalesce, it was not a tangible energy, but a spiritual belief.
Charon found that in addition to the knights behind him forging and refining this spirit, the tombstone group in front of him was also resonating, and he had his own active will.
Is it an unknown existence that has spawned again and again, or does the Heroic Spirit really reside here?
He didn't want to dig deeper, he just closed his eyes and felt it all quietly.
What is the duty of a knight, what is the glory of a knight, and what is the spirit of a knight?
At this moment, he has a clearer and deeper understanding, and I believe that others are the same.
Inside the dense array, an inconspicuous gray-haired knight raised his face proudly, but tears still slipped from the corners of his eyes.
His name was Jerry, and he was an orthodox aristocratic knight who belonged to the Seventh Legion on the left flank, one of the thousands of survivors of the legion.
When he was forced by the brutal Legion Commander to carry his horse and run back to the camp on foot, he was deeply humiliated and determined to become a great knight, trying to trample the Legion Commander under his feet one day.
Now this kind of thinking is light, in addition to the fact that the legion leader has inexplicably become a heavenly knight, but also because he has a more important goal.
In the cruel war, he had no chance of surviving, or because his cousin Roy and the few civilian knights he once looked down on sacrificed their lives to save him, he was lucky enough to cross the walls of Pamela and finally return to Amarinton alive.
But several other people have already died, so he didn't even have a chance to say a word of thanks, since this is the case, then he can only do what he can to repay.
In addition to doing aftermath work for these people's families, he will also inherit the spirit of the other party and do his best to win glory!
When the living and the dead form a bond, their lives will no longer belong to them, and the burden on their shoulders will be several times that of the original, which is generally only done by "fools".
Jerry knew these things very well, but he couldn't help it, he didn't think that he was essentially an idiot.
I don't know how much time has passed, but the sound of the trumpet has gradually calmed down, which means that the silent mourning has ended.
Everyone lowered their arms and opened their eyes one after another, but their mood was still immersed in the afterglow of the previous one.
Charon was not in a hurry, and waited patiently for everyone to digest it, and then took a step, stepping on the invisible staircase, step by step to the heights.
At a height of a hundred meters above the ground, he did not continue to go up, but stood still and turned around, looking down at the black-pressed knights.
Today, in addition to mourning the souls of the deceased and sending remembrance, he also needs to preside over morale-boosting matters and make a declaration for the next stage of the war.
"The Dongbai War began three hundred years ago, in the tortuous and difficult times, we paid too much sacrifice and blood, and today it has gradually subsided, but knights, don't let your guard down, and don't slack off!"
A heavy, slightly hoarse voice came out of his throat and clearly fell into the ears of everyone present through the air.
"Our enemies, they are gathering strength, ready to strike us head-on! They don't want to see knights rise and have an equal position with them! In their eyes, we should fall back into a state of loose sand, kneaded like soft mud, driven to them like slaves....."
The imperial kingdoms within the scope of the alliance's rule are vigorously popularizing history, and various records have been passed down from generation to generation, and the alliance knights are no strangers to the humiliation of the past, and at this time, listening to Charon's narration, many people's eyes flashed red.
The knights, the witch's servants, are vividly remembered in the war, and the group of people are willing to be inferior, so that the glory of the knights is dusted.
"I don't know what each of you thinks, but I will never accept this absurdity, let alone allow this disordered order to continue!"
After saying that, Charon pulled out the sword of judgment and pointed straight into the distance, the sharp edge broke through the heavy suppression, and roared out, as if to tear the world in half!
"I will use my sword to destroy all enemies that stand in the way of the alliance, and I will swear to the world the strength of the knight!"
He stared at the heaven and earth in front of him, and the magnificent and terrifying will made the entire plateau tremble, and the proud figure occupied the eyes of all the knights, becoming the only one between heaven and earth.
"What about you, is there anyone willing to join me in this mission and regain the honor and status that a knight deserves?!"
This sentence directly hit the deepest part of the knights' hearts, activating their surging battle intent, and the hot breath continued to spread out, making their blood boiling.
Knight Commander Greyjoy raised his hand and held it high, raising the condensed ice spear high, black flames bloomed from Aaron, the Wind Knight Doroli drew his long sword, and the head of the investigation team, Gaynor, also sacrificed his real knight sword.....
Behind them, there were more knights who took out their weapons one after another, and the sharp edge that appeared in an instant was unparalleled.
"What the Alliance Sword Blade points to, our fate is for!"
The unanimous response was like an abnormal tsunami, just like the reproduction of the scene when knights from all over the world followed the knight king to fight in all directions.
The knights will not be immersed in grief all the time, their tomorrow will be a more vast and magnificent journey, and no one can stop this Wei Wei trend!
........
A few days later, the new Dongbai battle situation was basically calm, and except for a few lurking hostile powerhouses, there were no sizable legions that could compete with the knights.
The freed Dongbai branch began to send legions to the present world, and when the Void Giant Whale appeared in the sea of clouds on the border of the Zilan Kingdom, the storm came-
In addition to the Zilan Kingdom, there are also seven kingdoms of different sizes that are affected by the core of the Dongbai Battle Realm, and most people who don't know the actual situation are still holding a fluke mentality, expecting the witch to counterattack.
But by this time, there was no suspense about the outcome of the victory, and the witch families and school forces in various places dragged their families and fled their original territory in a hurry, evacuating towards the north.
Due to the fact that there were quite a number of princes, nobles, and knights following him, this great escape was quite powerful, seriously affecting ordinary people, and thus breeding a lot of unnecessary chaos.
The alliance did not pursue the crusade, but started from the Zilan Kingdom, accepted the surrender of various countries, and issued new orders.
In fact, in the face of the murderous alliance legions, the countries originally ruled by witches did not have the strength to resist, so they could only accept it all.
Under the supervision of the alliance knights, the royal families of various countries gritted their teeth and issued a witch bounty order, calling on the people to report and arrest the witches who are still stranded in the kingdom, and draw a line with the past masters.
These kingdoms have been run by witches for so many years, and I don't know how many maiden witches are lurking, and the Alliance Knights don't actually expect them to be able to clear the environment, they just need a clear attitude.
Before the alliance set up branches in these kingdoms, what would really be relied on were the families and organizations that had been secretly supporting the alliance and providing intelligence for the alliance.
From now on, the Alliance will support them and give them more real power to eliminate the residual influence of witches.
In this vast land, the knight class will slowly prosper, and eventually a large number of qualified and excellent knights will emerge, adding more power to the rise of the alliance.
