Chapter 276: For the First Night Power

Along with that arrow, the lord fell from the sky.

Leon came from the rooftop.

The roofs of the Dexia people are different from those of the Lion Realm, and the houses here have their roofs completely smoothed.

There is little rainfall in this place, there is no need for inclined tiles, and the roof is generally used to dry things, and the load-bearing capacity is relatively strong.

A handful of Dexia Wind Protectors were shooting arrows from the rooftops at this time, and Leon's men were constantly attacking them.

Since there was still a street fight at this time, the street was not clear, so Wendy was the first to go up to the roof - the closest and fastest straight line between the two points.

Leon then began to walk in a straight line from the roof, and then noticed something he hadn't noticed all along—his reflexes seemed to have increased considerably.

Toba City is densely populated with houses, and Leon and Wendy run from top to top like two parkour buddies, jumping from one rooftop to the other from time to time.

If it was usual, Leon probably wouldn't dare to jump like this - he hadn't learned parkour, and although he was quite agile, the main thing to master this skill was not skill, but the need to overcome psychological barriers.

People are afraid, afraid of heights, afraid of not being able to pass, afraid of pain, afraid of being hurt - because they are afraid that they will not be able to do it, so their movements will be deformed, and they really can't do it.

And most people don't know about themselves, they don't know how far they can jump, they don't know how long they can react and move correctly, and they don't form instincts into various movements. Therefore, I will keep thinking about it, and I will hesitate repeatedly, and I will not be able to coherent the movements.

Those parkour masters, in fact, have overcome their fears, and have a deep understanding of their own bodies, coupled with long-term training, have the ability to react almost instinctively in rapid exercise.

But now, Leon found that he seemed to have no psychological barriers, and had that instinctive reaction.

He can even keep up with Wendy running at full speed on the rooftops, as if he and Wendy have the same reflexes.

Could this be the windfall of Wendy's blood and dragon tears?

Increased agility?

Leon guessed.

However, Wendy's movements were as light as a cat, and when Leon jumped from the roof to Aliste, he fell to the ground like a wild boar - even the ground shook twice, and a large cloud of dust was raised.

It seems that the reflexes and agility have indeed improved, but the skills are still far behind......

But this bulky landing method had a good combat effect - several of the Dusk Knights took a step back, and no one wanted the strong man who jumped from the roof to fall on his head.

"Knights of the Twilight...... What guts! Dare to run and make trouble when the army is attacking the city! ”

Leon stood in front of Jocelyn, the sword in his hand pointing in a circle, finally pointing at Alista.

In fact, he didn't see so many people when he jumped from the rooftop—only to realize that there were several Dusk Knights leaning against the wall, and he couldn't see them from the rooftops......

However, of course, at this time, there is no need to show timidity, after all, Li Ang's other teams will soon come over.

After shooting an arrow to save Jocelyn, Wendy blows the rallying call on the rooftop and shoots an arrow into the air - she wants to summon Leon's main force here.

The rallying cry sounded, and the arrows appeared in the air, which meant that the commander had no problems, but only encountered the enemy at the place where the arrows were fired, so the rest of Leon's troops would definitely all gather here.

"It seems that you are Count Leon...... The Earl was indeed very bold...... Above! ”

Holding his wounded arm, Aliste gave the order, and a dozen Knights of Dusk finally swarmed up.

But not at Jocelyn, who was raising the flag again, but at Leon!

"You're here to deal with me?!"

Leon understood the meaning of Alista's words.

They attacked Jocelyn on the battlefield, not to hunt down the traitors of the Knights of Dusk, but to bring down their banner and lure themselves over!

In order to get here quickly, Wendy was the only one by his side - he only needed to determine what kind of enemy Jocelyn was encountering in his location, after all, the city was full of his troops.

If you can deal with it, blow the assembly trumpet and shoot arrows to recruit the troops;

If you can't deal with it, let Wendy blow the horn for the whole army to retreat, and then run away......

You really don't need to bring anyone, and a lot of people will get in the way.

And Leon jumped onto the street, which meant that Leon thought he could deal with it, after all, he had only seen a handful of Twilight Knights.

"Count Leon, you have become an obstacle to the goddess, and we have come by the will of the goddess......"

Alisthai spoke with some seriousness, and he raised his sword again.

But as soon as he raised his sword, he let it go in pain—the wound on his arm that had been pierced by the arrow was still bleeding.

Alisthai took a few steps back and did not join the fray.

"Goddess? You mean Ereda? Ha ......"

Leon swung his sword to force back the combined attack of the two Dusk Knights, and stood back to back with Jocelyn.

Around them, there were more than a dozen Knights of Dusk.

But these dozen or so masters couldn't help Li Ang for a while-Li Ang's sword was extremely sharp, and every blow was so powerful that it could even cut off the Dusk Knight's sword directly.

In fact, as soon as they handed it over, Li Ang's heart was already half stable.

Because he had made sure that the Knights of Dusk would not dare to kill him—none of the attacks launched by the Knights of Dusk were aimed at him.

In fact, if you think about it a little, you can understand that if you die, none of Aliste and these Knights of Dusk will want to leave Toba City alive.

They can only capture themselves alive!

So Li Ang seems to be very active, even if he fights a dozen of them, he still plays well.

Coupled with Wendy, who was bouncing around the rooftops and constantly shooting arrows, and Jocelyn, who had relieved himself, the dozen or so members of the Dusk Knights gradually fell to the downside.

After being cut off several times in a row by Leon, the Dusk Knights hesitated.

"Bridget! How long do you want to wait?! ”

At this moment, Alisthai once again let out that shout with mysterious power.

As soon as the voice fell, the Dusk Knights, who were intercepting the non-commissioned officers behind them, all retreated, and a large number of people completely trapped Li Ang.

Behind the Knights of Dusk, Bridget emerged from several rooms with a team of Omen-seekers, blocking Leon's troops on the other side of the alley.

At the same time, a group of black-clad troops rushed from behind Alista, it was the servant army of the Dusk Knights, the Dusk Slaves.

It was only at this time that the Dusk Slaves had come out, apparently in order to prevent Leon from showing up due to the crowd being too large - this was clearly premeditated.

The alley, which was only a few meters wide, was blocked with the Knights of Dusk at both ends, with Leon and Jocelyn in the middle, and some omens-seekers on the rooftops, forcing Wendy to the surface as well.

The enemy created a local numerical advantage, and this advantage appeared to be quite large, almost four or five hundred men besieging three men—Leon, Jocelyn, and Wendy.

This scene is really troublesome, a dozen of them can barely parry, but one of them is really impossible to fight hundreds of them......

Although Leon's army must have begun to converge here, no amount of troops would be useful in this situation, just as Leon himself had kidnapped Justus and Levius.

"I'm Alistay...... Count Leon, how about you put down your sword and follow me? You're already trapped here by us, and even if all your army gathers up, it will only damage your reputation a little more......"

Seeing that his men had formed an encirclement of Leon, Aliste had a smile on his face and took two steps back.

This guy is very cautious, and when the situation is so good, he is a little farther away from the lord.

"Oh? It seems that I really have nowhere to run...... In that case, why don't you let me die? ”

Leon looked at Alista, the sword in his hand drooped, the current situation was indeed not good, he tried to delay his troops to break through the blockade of those omen seekers, and by the way, put some useful information.

"You have become a threat to the goddess...... Okay, I'll be more direct......"

Aliste probably felt that the general situation had been decided, and there was a smug look on his face: "Count Leon, your strength has grown too fast, and many people want your life...... Most importantly, you have been making enemies of the servants of the Goddess......"

"Servant of the Goddess...... You mean the Three Prophets? ”

Leon hadn't forgotten that when he first met the Twilight Knight Jocelyn, the fake Ingor with a different face - that was obviously done by the Three Prophets.

And Jocelyn's mission at that time was only to protect that fake Yin Geor.

In that case, the Three Prophets apparently had something to do with or cooperate with the Knights of Dusk.

It's just that Jocelyn didn't know the specific situation, so he didn't figure it out at the time.

And Leon did have a grudge against the Three Prophets, he defeated the Three Prophets when he was in Changhe Town at the beginning, if it weren't for Lehman coming to cut off Hu on the order of King Ulrik, the Three Prophets would have died at the hands of Leon.

After getting the town of Long River, Leon also asked Forsette and Grandon to find the lair of the Three Prophets - although this was only to put the black cauldron on the three prophets for stealing the king's seal, it must have caused a lot of trouble for the three prophets.

Speaking of which, the Three Prophets did not take the initiative to provoke Li Ang, and it was indeed Li Ang who took the initiative to make enemies of the Three Prophets.

Now that Alisthai was talking about the servants of the goddess Ereda, Leon naturally thought of the three prophets at once.

"Hah...... Maybe it's the king? Count Leon, your realm is no longer inferior to that of the king......"

Alisthai didn't answer directly, but took a step closer with a smile: "Count Leon, put down your sword and follow me, I don't want to kill you, that will cause me to be hunted down by your men...... But I don't think you want your troops to be countered by Brigie, right? ”

As he spoke, he pointed to the other side of the alley intercepting the Omen seekers.

However, Leon was trapped here, and the army would definitely not dare to attack the Knights of Dusk, but Brigit's team could counterattack without scruples, and the army became Leon's constraint at this time.

"The King? Coming out to stir up trouble when I'm about to capture Toba? Ha...... If you're talking about a prince or a princess, then I can figure it out. ”

Leon didn't put down the sword in his hand, he kept looking into Alistay's eyes.

As he spoke of 'Princess', he noticed a slight change in Alistay's eyes.

The change was small, but Leon was still aware of it.

The look in Alista's eyes was like a kind of surprise, and it disappeared in a flash.

Is it a princess?

Leon figured everything out at once......

The queen of the Lion Kingdom had died a few years earlier, and Ulrique had taken on a new princess a few days ago, who was said to be young, beautiful, and intelligent.

But the king did not hold any banquets with great fanfare this time, and even powerful lords such as Leon or Godric did not receive invitations.

Now it seems that this 'young and beautiful' princess may have a deep relationship with the three prophets, and may even be one of the three prophets!

Their skills seem to be getting better and better, and even Ulrik can fool them......

In that case, then you will definitely have to fight to the death.

If it fell into the hands of the Three Prophets, it would be better to die sooner - Leon could even think of what the Three Prophets would do to him, and his own skin would appear on another person, right?

"Alistay, have you ever thought about it...... What will happen to the Knights of Dusk if I escape? ”

Li Ang glanced left and right, and began to think about how to escape: "I'm curious, why are you going to deal with the marshal of a kingdom...... You can think of this risk, how do I think you Knights of Dusk have been stabbed? ”

"If I can get the town of Long River as a territory, do you think it's worth the risk I take?"

Alistai smiled and looked at Jocelyn, "Jocelyn, do you now know what you gave up by betraying the Knights?" Ha...... You could have enjoyed the riches of Long River, and you could even have the right to the first night......"

"I'm not interested in your customs and hobbies in Buckley, Alistay, you're a scumbag......"

Jocelyn was unmoved.

"Then you will be a prisoner of my flogging pleasure at the feast...... Jocelyn, I thought you'd turn back, but I actually cared a lot about our comradeship. ”

Being scolded by Jocelyn as a scumbag, the smile on Alistay's face disappeared, and his tone changed to a threat.

"Then you'll have to catch me alive first......"

Jocelyn turned his head away, ignoring Alistay.

"Alistay, you just said ...... First Night Right? How come I don't remember that the lords of the Lion Kingdom have this privilege? ”

Leon was still glancing around, thinking about how to get out as he spoke, but Aliste was now several meters away from him.

Wendy behind him snorted, obviously quite unhappy about the 'first night power'.

As the name suggests, this was the privilege of the noble lords in some places, that is, to enjoy the first night of the bride when the people in the realm got married.

Usually this is a time when a great power like Barkley grants some newly conquered territories across the sea to attract nobles to bring troops over to serve as lords and maintain their rule.

But there are several countries on the Pander continent that don't say this - as early as the time of the former king Kavala, this privilege that could easily inspire civil rebellion was completely abolished.

"It is true that the Lion Kingdom did not have a ...... before But what if the Lion Kingdom is no longer the Lion Kingdom? Ha...... How many busty young girls are there in your Changhe Town, Count Leon, I mean the meaty kind, and the firewood girl behind you is not ......"

There was some longing in Alistay's eyes, and it seemed that he was quite yearning for the right to get the first night and the fat girl.

Wendy squinted at Aliste and tightened the sword in her hand, obviously quite disagreeing with this 'firewood girl'.
