"Lord Marsa!"

"Hmm!"

Returning a military salute to the two guards at the door, the paladin strode into the main hall, looking at the big red carpet road leading all the way to the depths of the main hall, a strange smile appeared on his face, and then his face turned pale after hearing the footsteps behind him, and he raised his feet and continued to walk inside...

As the core cathedral of Stratholme City, the status of Dawn Light is even comparable to the Holy Light Chapel in Greater Cowlingshire, not only because the first paladins were born here, and it is one of the holy places for all paladins to make a pilgrimage after they change jobs, but also because unlike the Holy Light Chapel with only one lonely cathedral, Dawn Light is located in the core area of Stratholme City, and almost every nobleman and magnate born in the Stratholme area will receive baptism and the first bath of the Holy Light here, which naturally condenses more than ninety percent of the faith in the Stratholme area。 Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Finally, it is an important location for the Silver Hand after the Eastern Wall, especially in recent years, as more and more paladins have begun to gather here as the Prince of Arthas, who is based in Stratholme, has risen to prominence in the Silver Hand.

"Knight Mars, you're late!"

As soon as Mars entered the main hall in the center of the temple, there was a shout in his ears, and when he heard this, he walked towards the speaker and walked towards him with a slight quickening of pace, but as soon as he arrived, another figure appeared next to the other party, and said in an arrogant tone.

Glancing indifferently at the young paladin who came out, no, it should be said that it was a teenager, and there was even obvious greenness on his immature face, but because of his arrogance, he looked a little awkward and contrived, skipped the boy, and looked at the paladin behind him, and after the two glanced at each other, Mars said lightly.

"It's still early for the ceremony!"

"Well, about the ceremony for a while, the archbishop needs to communicate with you in advance, you can't find anyone in the past few days, where have you gone?"

After pulling the young knight down, Darien frowned and looked at Mars, and then behind him, on the high platform in the depths of the main hall, an old man in a pure white robe was staring at this side with a golden staff that was two meters high.

"I went to the backyard of the Chapel of the Light! I haven't seen her in a long time. ”

After glancing at the old man from afar, Mars nodded to each other, and Mars said to Darion with a calm face.

"Hmm... I haven't been there in a long time..."

Hearing this, Darian took the young man's hand and shook it, then glanced at Mars, who was still calm, and said in a low voice.

"Heh, there will be opportunities in the future, many opportunities..."

With a smile on his lips, Mars patted Darien on the shoulder, and then skipped the two of them and walked towards the high platform, but the last words were so light that only he could hear, and the smile on his face became more and more strange as he turned around.

"Patriarch Palamis!"

Before he could get to him, Mars gave a military salute to the old man not far away, and said respectfully.

"Well, get ready! The visitors are almost ready to enter!"

Although he was wearing a wide robe and carrying a huge staff, the old man did not show a trace of energy and coercion at all, and he looked no different from an ordinary old man who was about to enter the ground, but Mars, who had served in the Silver Hand branch of Stratholme for nearly six years, was naturally very aware of the power of the old man in front of him.

As one of the oldest Patriarchs of the Holy Light in Lordaeron, the other party was even the witness and assistant of the birth of the original batch of paladins, but as a native of Stratholme, the old Patriarch of the Holy Light seemed to prefer to sit in the Dawn Light to preach and spread the teachings of the Holy Light to ordinary people, so he generally maintained this state of no power and combat power to facilitate equal communication with ordinary people.

Of course, when facing a high-ranking knight with a silver hand, the Holy Light Patriarch naturally revealed a trace of legend, and was stared at by a legendary Patriarch at close range, even Mars, who had been promoted to the high rank for many years, his face froze, and then he nodded in response.

"Yes, on the path of the Holy Light, it's just for my heart!"

"Let's go down!"

The gaze gradually dissipated, and the patriarch changed back to the appearance of an ordinary old man one after another, and said with a kind face.

"Yes!"

Still with a stiff face, Mars gave a military salute and slowly retreated.

"How?"

Seeing Mars slowly retreat and finally stand beside Darion without saying a word, the Patriarch of the Holy Light suddenly said to the empty side.

"It seems... No problem!"

Facing the Patriarch's words, a small voice hesitated.

"It seems!"

Palamis's face was slightly cold, and a terrifying power suddenly filled the entire high platform, and his slightly narrowed eyes were completely opened, and he stared at the side.

"Suspect a paladin who has dedicated himself to the Holy Light for decades for no reason, and can't give definitive evidence!"

"Patriarch, we are just in case, you also know that the group in the north is becoming more and more unscrupulous, and the Silver Hand, as Lordaeron's sharpest weapon, must be cautious in the appointment and dismissal of any commander, especially..."

It seemed to be taken by the coercion of the Patriarch, and a vague figure appeared slightly and then disappeared immediately, and then a hurried voice came out, explaining very quickly.

"Enough!"

Whispering to stop the voice in the shadows, the Patriarch waved his hand and returned to his ordinary old man's state again.

"Go back, the silver hand is too big for me to manage, but in Stratholme, as long as I Palamis lives for one day, I will guard it for one day!"

After speaking, the patriarch didn't say anything, turned around and walked down with his staff, at the door of the main hall, there have been the figures of the major dignitaries of Stratholme one after another, the nobles with titles above the viscount, and nearly ninety percent of the silver hands above the fifth rank have gathered in this hall, just to participate in a grand event, a succession event about the leader of the silver hand in the Stratholme region...

"In the name of the Light, Mars, are you willing to dedicate your life to a righteous cause?"

On the high platform of the main hall at the core of the Dawn Light Cathedral, the Holy Light Patriarch held the Holy Staff and gently pressed it on the shoulders of the paladin in front of him, and although the solemn question was addressed to the paladin who was close in front of him, it was clearly spread to every corner of the entire hall.

"I, Mars, have dedicated my life to the industry of justice!"

Kneeling on one knee, Mars touched his chest with one hand, and the holy light slowly spread through his body.

"The path of the Holy Light is full of thorns and death, Mars, are you still willing to take on this responsibility?"

"I do!"

The holy light surrounding his body became thicker and thicker, and even formed a thick stream of holy light, and Mars's hand on his chest gradually clenched into a fist, and said firmly.

Sensing the extremely rich holy light on the paladin in front of him, the only shadow and doubt left in Palamis's heart completely dissipated, Stratholme's Silver Hand was originally held by the Prince of Arthas, but Lordaeron has already sent the Holy Palace, Arthas will completely step down from all the affairs of the Silver Hand and officially return to the royal capital, and the position of the leader will naturally be vacant.

Mars, from the fact that he does not have a surname, it can be seen that the other party is not born into a noble family, in fact, the other party's previous generation is just a merchant family in Lordaeron, although rich but not too famous, it is the reason why the other party can be promoted to a high-level paladin at the age of forty, relying on his personal talent and amazing comprehension of the Holy Light, which is also the reason why Palamis chose him to succeed as the commander of the Silver Hand Stratholm region, a silver hand commander who does not have the influence of most secular families, is more suitable for the next situation, otherwise the following Darien is superior in combat power, but as the son-in-law of the Mograine family, he originally represents a big force.

However, now Stratholme is about to usher in a new era, and the first Duke of Stratholme has finally been born.

After thinking in his heart for a blink of an eye, Palamis came back to his senses, looked at the paladin in front of him and nodded with satisfaction, raised the staff of holy light, and said loudly.

"Come, Mars, receive the gift of the Light!"

"I refuse!"

The cold voice came from front of him, and when Palamis looked down in surprise, there was a sharp pain in his chest, and then his eyes met a pair of ice blue eyes, containing terrifying magic and deterrence in the sight, but there was not a trace of holy light that should have been filled, but only the power of death that could not be dissolved.

"Fall!!"

Anger instantly filled his mind, and Palamis raised the staff of holy light in his hand in a rage, but the holy light did not respond to his call this time, and the next moment the whole person fell into darkness... (To be continued.) )
