Chapter 294: The Legend of the King

Li Jun didn't know what was happening here, and he had already alarmed the Pope who was far away in the south of the mainland. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The strange scene made the miners outside the cave all cold, the weather in the desert was very hot, and there was a cool breeze in the daytime, rushing out of the cave, and the whirring wind was in the ears, rolling with a rustling sound.

......

Sacred City of Light.

The Grand Commander of the Ruling Squad walked out of the gloomy palace, and the Knights of Light of the Hundred were ready, uniformly equipped with bright armor, spears, round shields with gold stripes on a white background, as well as crossbows and short swords.

The knights of light wear this kind of heavy weapons and equipment all year round, maybe they have become accustomed to it, or they have become a part of their bodies, and they don't feel any heaviness at all, whether it is a spear, a round shield, an arm crossbow, etc., they are already familiar with it.

It is not a horse that can become a knight, knights are noble and proud, they are loyal, merciful, fraternal, mutual assistance, the rules of knighthood have been widely circulated to this day, and only through the most authoritative formal recognition can one become a glorious knight.

And the knights of the Church of Light, known as the most powerful knights, are no less powerful than any swordsman in combat power, and the armor of the heavy infantry will crack with a slight sweep of the cross short sword.

"Sir, we are members of the guard that the Lord Commander has assigned to you, and we are responsible for protecting your personal safety on this trip. A middle-aged knight came up to the Grand Commander and gave him a slight salute.

The knightly hierarchy of the church can be roughly divided into four levels: chief knight, chief knight, chief knight, and commander.

The knight commander, on the other hand, commands all the light knights of the church, and is in a high position, equivalent to the status and identity of a cardinal archbishop.

The Knight of Light is an important force for the outside of the church, which is equivalent to the army in the world, and the knight commander is equivalent to the marshal of the army.

The Temple Judgment Team led by the Grand Governor of the Judgment is equivalent to a secular secret army and espionage organization, with a small number of people, but each of them is one in a thousand strong people.

For example, standing outside the door, the thirty ruling knights who are silent, the unified black robe, the black magic horse wearing special armor, like the knight walking in the dark, in broad daylight, it gives people an eerie feeling.

"No need, go back and tell the Commander that the knights are responsible for my safety. The Chief Adjudicator said coldly.

Roar~~

Dozens of black magic horses let out a low roar, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared from their place.

The knights of the Judgment left the City of Light and galloped down the boulevards at a swift pace, like black thunder.

I don't know who spread the news, about the vision of the iron mining site, quickly spread throughout the principality, the Chamber of Commerce doing business in Modu, hurriedly sent a sword master to inquire about the situation, some adventurers and freelancers, also learned from special channels, a team of knights left the city of light a day ago, galloped towards the northwest.

"What the hell did you find? Could it be that some terrible magic weapon has been unearthed?" one mercenary speculated.

"Now some large mercenary groups have arrived from all directions, as well as such as the lone great swordsman, Thorne, the wind wolf free man, Lacey, etc., who have also arrived in Modu recently. An adventurer said mysteriously.

Whether it is the lone great swordsman Thorne, or the wind wolf free man Lacey, they are all strong people with a high reputation in the mercenary world, and they can be said to be living legends, their combat power may be far less powerful than that of the earth martial arts swordsman, but their survivability is not covered.

There are very few mercenaries who can accept a hundred mercenary tasks, and most of those who survive safely die in large numbers around eight or ten, and the lucky ones can not survive twenty or thirty.

Smart mercenaries, after choosing a few high-paying mercenary tasks, will retreat to the second line, and usually take on some small tasks such as finding cats and dogs, which are safe and profitable.

"Now that iron mine has been sealed, there are about a thousand soldiers stationed there, and no one is allowed to enter, otherwise, some mercenaries who have been waiting impatiently will go into the cave to hunt for treasure. "In a tavern, two or three mercenaries sat around, drinking cheap cold ale and munching peanuts and chatting.

"I heard that in the depths of that cave, there is the ancient city of Arthur, which has disappeared for thousands of years, and all the treasures of King Arthur are buried in that ancient city. ”

"Legend has it that King Arthur was not only the greatest emperor, but also the richest king of all time, and that his gold coins could accumulate into a towering mountain, fill a city, and countless magical weapons......"

The mercenaries talked a lot, and their eyes were all hot.

Although personal strength is also one of the factors, if King Arthur does not have a strong army, how can one person deal with so many brave and warlike knights of light?

Legend has it that King Arthur had tens of millions of armored soldiers, and there were fifty legions of magicians under his command, and more than 100,000 special troops, all of whom wore magic weapons, and were more terrible than the heavy cavalry, such as the torrent of destruction.

Wow~~Wow~~

Suddenly, there was a sound of hooves, and a group of black-robed knights came neatly from afar, stopping straight in front of the Modu Church.

The Modu Church, as luxurious as a palace, and the kilometer-long statue of the goddess of light, has been completed for more than half and is expected to be completed next year.

Shuke's merits cannot be buried, on the one hand, it is the appreciation of the pope, and on the other hand, it is the fawning of the middle-level people within the church, and his status as the next cardinal archbishop is basically a sure thing.

In terms of status, although the ruling arch-chief is higher than the current Shuke, the arch-chief does not dare to be arrogant for a quasi-cardinal archbishop.

"Who is that man, and that Bishop Shuk himself came to greet him?" exclaimed one of the adventurers.

"It must be the big man of the adjudication office who has arrived, and it is estimated that it must be at least the level of the chief adjudicator. A mercenary said.

Adjudicator, Adjudicator, Adjudicator, Magistrate, the hierarchy of the Religious Inquisition, the status of a Magistrate is no different from that of a bishop, and the Adjudicator can make the Cardinal Archbishop tolerate three points.

......

"The people of the Judgment Office have entered the cave in the ground, and a mercenary group has followed!" One morning, a young mercenary hurriedly ran to the hotel, shouting at his companions, and immediately, this group of more than 30 mercenaries picked up the worn-out iron sword and rusty iron shield, rode the sand beast, and ran towards the iron mining site.

Countless mercenaries and adventurers flocked to it, and sure enough, they found that the more than 1,000 soldiers who had been stationed there and strictly forbade anyone to approach had begun to retreat and returned to the Modu military camp.

The narrow hole was also widened to allow ten people to enter side by side.

Under the hole, it is extremely gloomy, and with the cool breeze, it swishs out.

The mercenaries carried lamps, torches, etc., and cautiously followed behind the big man.

The Ruling Knights took the lead and walked in the forefront, followed by Li Jun, followed by a large mercenary group, powerful adventurers, and freelancers.

During the period of waiting for the church to come, Li Jun was not idle, and made up for the legend of King Arthur, and did not go too deep, but swept around the periphery, except for finding a few wall tiles that had not yet rotted, there was nothing else to gain.

It's okay to let the group of yin people in the adjudication office explore the way in front, and if there is any leakage, they will follow behind and pick it up.

Li Jun didn't believe that this time the church made such a big battle, just like other mercenaries, they came to hunt for treasures, and figuring out the reality of Arthur's ancient city was the first thing they had to do.

After King Arthur died in battle, he built it, known as the strongest fortress on the continent at that time - the mysterious disappearance of the ancient city of Arthur, some people say that before the ancient city of Arthur disappeared, there was a sandstorm swept the city, and some people say that it was the holy mage under the command of King Arthur, who used magic to hide the ancient city of Arthur, intending to make a comeback.

The dilapidated city capital is no different from a giant city, but the architectural style of this ancient city is somewhat different from that of modern times, and some totemic carvings can be seen in almost every part of the city.

The natives believe in gods very much, and the 'gods' they worship are all kinds of strange things, and even the magical beasts such as the Titan Giant Ape are regarded as gods by a huge city-state.

A knight of the adjudicator walked quickly to the front, and a strange sound came from the ground, and the knight of the adjudicator drew his sword with a solemn and vigilant face.

The voice grew clearer and clearer from far to near, and in an instant, the face of the ruling knight changed suddenly, and a brilliant golden flower, condensed by the condensation of fighting energy, suddenly bloomed, like a brilliant golden lotus, and burst out.

Burst......

A large spur of blood splattered, and white shards flew around.

Li Jun stopped, calmed down, and couldn't help but gasp.

It was a swarm of tyrant leeches, densely packed with endless stretches of white rivers, one by one with their mouths wide open, their sharp teeth sticking to their saliva, and they rushed towards the crowd as if they had taken everyone as food for them.

"It's not good, array!

Some of the mercenaries began to act in panic, the shield bearers formed a circle, and the rest of the mercenaries were surrounded inside, and the archers took out sharp arrows from their quivers and aimed them at the tyrant leeches.

Li Junchao retreated, and dozens of puppet beasts acted as meat shields to surround him, followed by desert flying snakes and yellow-scaled bees, condescending from the sky to attack.

One after another, the yellow-scaled wasps flew in the air, constantly shooting out the stingers on their tails, paralyzing the tyrant leeches one by one, and slumping to the ground, losing their combat power.

The dense desert flying snake bit down like a worm, biting off the fat tyrant leeches in the air, biting off their heads, and sprinkling blood. (To be continued.) )
