Chapter 58: The Last Glory
The cold wind on the plateau cut through the vicissitudes of life like a knife across the vicissitudes of life of the Great Lord Ferdin, but at this moment he had no time to care about it.
King Heinrich rode his horse slowly, and behind him was Darien. The cold weather froze the ground, and the horseshoes kicked and trampled on the hearts of the knights of light who had managed to survive in Fordin. The terrifying appearance of the war horse ridden by His Majesty the King and Darion behind him, they could see clearly, it was simply two skeletons with carrion on top of them, and from between the carrion, they could see those purple-black rancid entrails.
Heinrich's horse's almost naked heart suddenly contracted without warning. This strange scene made everyone feel that their hearts were being squeezed hard.
"Lord Fordin, I've always felt like we've been very good friends. Heinrich's hoarse voice was terrifying, like being in a haunted forest at midnight. He took off his black helmet, revealing a face that surprised Ferdin, but it was also reasonable. Heinrich continued. "As a friend, I invite you to join me in my new kingdom and witness the beginning of an era!"
The Grand Lord Ferdin, who looked at Heinrich without saying a word, had a grim expression. King Heinrich of Main, the proud golden lion praised by the world, not only because of his flamboyant character, but also because of his dazzling blond hair and handsome appearance. And now Ferdin's heroic face was still the same, but his face was gray, like a dead man, and his dazzling blonde hair had also turned a miserable gray.
"Thank you for your kindness," said Fordin, "I still prefer to be a living person, Your Majesty - if you are still a king." Oh, I'm sorry, I was negligent. You're not even a human anymore, how can you talk about a king?"
In the face of Fordin's cynicism, Heinrich did not care at all, and only waved lightly. The black army behind him slowly pressed up, and not only that, but in this wilderness, so many soldiers suddenly appeared out of nowhere, cutting off the back path of Fording and completely surrounding these knights of holy light.
Heinrich said: "Darian, it seems that someone is too conceited, and even you have to lose a few points to him. Darien, who had been easily silent, now had an inhuman identity, and after becoming a non-human being, he became even more silent, and did not respond to Heinrich's words at all.
Heinrich then said to Fordin: "You must understand that you and your men will eventually be enslaved by me, whether you live or die? ”
Ferdin's contemptuous glance at the gathered army, which was already in a desperate situation and fell into a mortal situation, and the matter of life and death was not to be worried. He asked his subordinates aloud, "Tell me, what are you?"
"Defender of the Light, Knight of Glorious Light!" Hearing the words of the Great Lord, the hearts of these beleaguered remnants burst into a shining spark, igniting their last glory and pride.
Ferding pointed at Heinrich and shouted, "Tell me, this filthy creature who calls himself king, trying to trample on the glory of the Knight of Light!"
"Defend glory with blood!" But there were only a few hundred people, but the sound was like thunder, and it was deafening.
Heinrich scoffed at the actions of these people, and said disdainfully: "Since you have chosen to endure endless torture...... He waved his hand, and the mighty army pressed forward step by step like a thick dark cloud.
Rao was surrounded by a lot of people, and the cold wind was howling in his ears, but Fording felt that the wilderness under Tempest City was quiet and terrifying, and there was no breath of a living person. He slowly drew his sword and said, "You are all the greatest knights, worthy of the title of Knight of the Holy Light, now let us welcome the final glory!"
Roland Kingdom, Flower Capital City.
The Prince of Orleans, the regent, who had a monopoly on power, remained closed, and the wide avenue outside the gate of the prince's palace had become a new gathering place for street vendors in Huadu. I don't know who was the first to set up temporary houses here to withstand the cold, and then the rest of the people did the same, and temporary buildings sprung up like mushrooms, and around these temporary houses were scattered vendors, errands, and handymen who provided services to the nobles.
As soon as the lights come on, the place becomes even more lively. The Crow Odyssey leisurely strolls around this emerging "trade area", buying a few gadgets from time to time to play with them, and not forgetting to feast on delicious snacks.
Odyssey smashed the aftertaste in his mouth and said to himself: "It's really a rare delicacy, if you don't have this place, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat it, it's a pity to think about it." In order not to treat my mouth badly, should I not help Li Xiang and the Prince of Orleans?"
While talking to himself, the Odyssey had arrived at the gate of the Prince's Palace. He grabbed the knocker three times and knocked on the door. After a while, a small window opened on the closed door, and the doorman asked vigilantly, "Who is it?"
Odyssey smiled and said, "Go and tell His Royal Highness that the person who will solve his troubles has come." ”
