Chapter IV: The Crusaders
"Escort Alvin?" Althea looked angry.
"Captain Mars, do the Crusaders only know how to bully ordinary people?" Alvin's thin sword pressed against Althea's neck.
"Alvin?" Mars stared.
A number of soldiers dressed in dark purple knights' uniforms walked slowly, their slender lilac swords hanging from their waists and crossed sword and shield emblems on their chests.
This is the symbol of the Molten Division, which is used by royalty and nobility to counterbalance the existence of the Molten Division, because the Molten Division's power is too strong.
For the ruling class, they don't need too much power, what politics needs is balance.
"Hmph, it turned out to be a miscellaneous member of the Guardians, where did you run away when facing the Shadow Race?" the red flames in Althea's hands grew stronger and stronger.
"Our duties are different, but we all do things in the service of our Emperor Majesty. Alvin smiled, his long pale blonde hair showing a sense of elegance.
Lin Zhong looked at it from the side and squinted slightly, Alvin's strength and speed were about the same as Althea's, but the blue-white flames just now were extremely intense.
And the commander of the Crusader Regiment, Mars, seems to be the same, the strength of the body should be ten times that of a normal person, it should be the limit, but the power of the flame they have far exceeds the limit that the body can hold.
"What is this power?" Lin Zhong was extremely curious.
It seems that he must find a way to reach out to the Guardians or the Crusaders so that he can understand the true rules of the world and find the resources he needs.
"Your Majesty, we are fighting for the people!" Althea's eyes were red.
"What ignorant words. Alvin shook his head slightly, looking at Mars, who had short black hair.
Mars sat there silently, but the aura on his body became more and more terrifying, and a huge black figure could be faintly seen in the sky above the entire bar.
"Althea, let's go. Mars got up, glanced at Alvin and the escort, and walked slowly to the door.
But the ground he passed through was imprinted with deep footprints, and on the footprints could faintly enter the pitch-black flames, the flames were fleeting, but the violent power burned the air out of a twisted shape.
"It's so powerful. Lin Zhong was shocked.
The power generated by this Mars's flame far exceeds his strength, and it seems that the power system of this world is quite terrifying, and it should not be much different from that of wizards.
"Captain, it's okay to let them go like this?" a soldier asked in a low voice.
"Even if there are a hundred of them like Althea, I can keep them, but Mars is not a simple guy, he has been hiding his strength. Alvin sneered.
Lin Zhong drank all the Blue Moon wine and secretly walked out of the bar.
If he's not mistaken, the Crusaders have been recruiting new candidates lately, as many of them died in the last battle with the Shadow Race.
But few people are willing to join the Crusaders, because the Crusaders are the most dangerous professions, and the benefits inside are quite poor, and most of the people who enter them are crazy people or good old people.
Just like Althea just now, she joined the Crusader Corps for the sake of protecting the world.
Most people want to join the Guardian because the benefits are the best and they are quite safe, but unfortunately the selection of the Guardian is extremely strict, and you must have a noble status to join.
Lin Chong followed the fragments of memory in his mind and came to a dilapidated three-story wooden building, in front of which there was a huge wooden plank, and a worn-out parchment was pasted on the wooden board.
It says that the Crusader Corps recruits soldiers and the benefits are simple, but Lin Zhong doesn't care, because there is a very good condition in it, that is, he can become a molten fire master.
"It's fun to master the power of fire. Lin Zhong pushed open the dilapidated wooden door and walked slowly.
Inside was a bar-like venue, with a few men in shabby clothes lounging on burgundy couches, chatting about strange things.
Inside the bar was a white-haired old man in a dress, with a high hat on top of his head, and the whole person exuded a lazy atmosphere.
"Huh?" the white-haired old man looked at Lin Chong in surprise.
Several men in ragged clothes also looked at Lin Chong: "Someone is here, hey, are you in the wrong place?"
Footsteps were heard.
Mars and Althea came down the stairs and were a little surprised when they saw Lin Chong.
"Crusader recruitment, I shouldn't have gone to the wrong place. Lin Zhong smiled.
"Commander, someone has come to apply!" Althea was surprised inexplicably.
"Hmm. Mars's face was still calm, looking Lin Zhong up and down, he felt that this ordinary-looking young man seemed to be a little special.
"Although he is not tall, he looks physically strong. At some point, Althea walked up to Lin Chong and touched his arm with her hand.
Lin Chong's head is one meter nine upwards, but Althea is only a little shorter than him, which shows how tall people in this world are.
"Yes, this muscle seems to have been exercised. The white-haired old man also commented, and several men laughed.
"Why do you want to join the Crusaders?" Mars asked faintly.
"What else could it be for, of course to protect the world! Chase out the Shadow Race!" Althea exclaimed.
"To become a molten master. Lin Zhong said.
Hearing this, the white-haired old man was stunned for a moment, although they had also seen all kinds of people, but it was the first time they had seen a guy like Lin Chong.
"Hey, don't you want to protect our world?" said Althea.
"I don't think much of it, I just want to save my life. Lin Zhong smiled.
"Good, you're being honest, but you need to take a test before you join our corps. Mars tilted his head slightly, only to see the muscles in his body bulge slightly.
The next second.
Mars's body appeared in front of Lin Zhong like lightning, and a punch slammed into his abdomen, the speed and skill of this punch were perfect to the extreme.
It can be seen that Mars is a battle-hardened warrior, Lin Chong's face froze slightly, of course he knew that he couldn't use the wizard's other powers.
He can only fight Mars with his own body, but Mars's physical strength is not much different from him, and it seems that he has lost his eyes in the tavern.
Lin bent his elbows and flung at Mars's head in an instant.
Bang!
Mars instantly turned into a fist and slapped one leg into Lin Chong's lower waist, and Lin Zhong also kicked Mars in the abdomen with one leg at the moment he was drawn.
The bodies of the two flew upside down at the same time, and the people inside were slightly surprised.
