Finally, when the first rays of the morning sun hung on the branches, the four of them returned to the church, and the traces of yesterday's battle were still vivid, although the corpses had been removed, but the broken weapons and red blood stains on the ground all proved that unknown warriors had died here.

Akali and Reinhardt stand in the doorway of the church, facing the direction of the battlefield, silently bowing in silence for the war dead, and Clouds and Fluttershy choose to do as they do, even though they don't know such etiquette.

A quarter of an hour later.

"Whew...... It's a blessing to drink warm wheat porridge. Akali said, holding the porridge in her hand.

"I'm ashamed that Her Royal Highness is here, I don't have anything better to entertain you, and I beg your forgiveness. Reinhardt said with some embarrassment.

"It's okay, we are all soldiers, and now that we have been fighting all night, it is most comfortable to drink a little warm porridge like this. Akali shook her head unimpressed.

"yes, it's been a long time since I've had such a good meal. Fluttershy agrees as she sizzles down the porridge in her hand.

"Hey, what's the hurry, no one will rob you, drink slowly!" Yunhai taps Fluttershy on the head.

"I'm hungry......" Fluttershy says innocently, with her big cute eyes.

"Thank you both ladies for your understanding. Reinhardt smiled. "May I ask this young lady from the East, are you called Fluttershy?"

"I am not a human being, I am a child of the Buddha, the princess of the Asura one of the eight tribes, whose name is King Guidie, please ask Baron Thomas for many advice. Fluttershy takes it seriously and introduces herself formally.

"I see, it's my honor to get to know Lord Gui Butterfly. Reinhardt was invisibly intimidated by Fluttershy's aura that was not inferior to Akali's, believing that the princess was no more than Akali and that she seemed to be a child of God, which made it all the more awe-inspiring.

"Cloud, can you introduce yourself?" Reinhardt turned his gaze back to the sea of clouds.

"I ......" Yun Hai has always been unaccustomed to the Westerners who only call them by their surnames, and felt a big headache, and just wanted to answer, but Fluttershy rushed to answer: "This guy's name is Yun Hai, and he is herding sheep in the northern grasslands of China, but he is also the husband of this princess, and that's it." ”

"It turned out to be the husband of Lord Gui Butterfly, disrespectful and disrespectful. Reinhag immediately stood up and bowed deeply.

"No, we're not married. Yun Hai hurriedly stood up with half a bowl of porridge in his hand and returned the salute, and corrected Reinhardt's misunderstanding.

"It turned out to be the fiancé of Lord Gui Butterfly, and he was disrespectful and disrespectful. Reinhardt bowed again.

"......" Yun Hai was speechless, and in the face of this serious European man who was a little too much, he suddenly had a feeling of being defeated.

After a hurried breakfast, Akali eagerly asked about the current situation in Europe and the news of her sister Katarina.

"Reinhardt, how powerful is Trist now?"

"Hmm...... Anyway, it's basically everywhere. Reinhardt thought about the wording and said. "Trist began to plan a coup d'état after King Lucas I began his crusade, on the one hand, he secretly planned to get rid of all the people who might pose a threat to his throne, on the other hand, he used coercion and inducement and other means to win over or threaten the lords of various places to join his camp, and soon almost all of Europe was included in the bag, I refused to submit to a thief like Trist, so I led the rebels to start resisting, but because I was outnumbered, I was defeated after all, and was driven out of my territory, and my men also walked away, and died, just yesterday's battle, the militia I temporarily recruited also died here......”

Speaking of this, Reinhardt's mood couldn't help but be a little low, and he lowered his head and sighed.

"Baron Thomas need not be so mindful, you have done your best, and I am sure that both your valiant Father in Heaven and the Almighty God will be proud of you. Akali now behaved like a princess, comforting Reinhardt, who was in a slump.

"Yes, we have such a saying in Shenzhou, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, Reinhardt doesn't have to care too much about a momentary defeat, and now that Akali has returned to Europe, it is an opportunity to clean up this mess, and now work together to eliminate the usurping Trist. Yunhai also encouraged.

"It's just that if you lose too much, you get used to it, there's nothing to be sad about, cheer up. Fluttershy admonishes.

"Hey, Fluttershy, you're not so persuasive!" Yunhai jumped.

"Uh, okay, okay, I didn't say anything......" Fluttershy scratches her head and laughs awkwardly as she recalls what she said.

"Baron Thomas, you must have heard that in the dungeon. Akali stood proudly at the foot of the cross, her words stirring up hope, and she had become an excellent orator. "Trist's usurpation of the throne is despicable, but my father, Lucas I, who started a war, will also bring disaster to this nation, so I decided to form the Knights of the Dawn to protect the peace of Europe and the world in the spirit of freedom, equality, and fraternity, and to bring light and warmth to all people like the dawn. ”

"How, would Baron Thomas be willing to join this nascent group and realize his true worth as a knight together, instead of becoming a killing machine that has lost himself?"

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness Princess Xie ...... encouragement," Reinhardt cheered up and said, "When Her Royal Highness the Princess returns, there is hope for everything, and I, Reinhardt Thomas, am willing to swear before God that I will be loyal to Princess Akali Lucas, abide by the rules of knights, and fight to protect Her Royal Highness Princess Akali until the last moment!"

Fluttershy and Akali had heard this be the process of the Western Knights' own lords swearing allegiance, and the sunlight shining through the glass mural outside the window onto Reinhardt's half-kneeling body reflected the colorful brilliance of his armor, as if a holy light had really descended from the sky and baptized him.

"Baron Thomas, thank you for your loyalty, please rise. Akali also lifted Reinhardt from the ground according to tradition, so that this irregular allegiance ceremony was officially completed.

"It's not easy, it's been almost half a year since your Knights of the Dawn was established, and you finally have a second member. Yunhai said lightly, after all, the idea of forming the Knights of the Dawn was already there when Akali was in the three thousand miles of quicksand, but she has been busy with various things during this time, and the people in the crusaders do not meet her standards, so it has been delayed until now, and this kind of efficiency is indeed a bit miserable.

"The purpose of our Knights of the Dawn is to prefer lack to abundance, as long as the faith is firm and the people of high moral character, less is less, what are you afraid of. Akali said indifferently.

"Akali, it looks like you're a pretty interesting knight, can you take me one?" Fluttershy is instantly interested.

"If you convert to God, I promise you at once. Akali smiled slightly.

"Uh...... I'm the princess of the Asura after all, even though I don't know what life I've been doing when I saw the Buddha in the legends of the Eight Tribes......" Fluttershy said embarrassed.

"Well, faith comes from the heart, at least, our belief in the good things in human nature is the same, isn't it?" Yunhai said with a smile.

"I think Yunhai's sentence is very good. Akali nodded. "No matter what religion you believe, as long as you have a yearning for virtue in your heart, you are a good person and our friend. ”

"Then I propose, for the sake of virtue, work together!"

In the quiet church, the weapons of the four men crossed together and shouted together.

From Reinhardt's mouth, Akali received a lot of information that was of great use.

In today's Europe, because the people and lords everywhere have been devastated by war, they are unable to resist the army of Trist who has been planning for a long time, so they have to choose to compromise, and some of the people who saw the wind or were already dissatisfied with Lucas I chose to take the initiative to show favor to Trist, and these people formed a "Council of Europa", which was specially used to discuss how to suppress the opposition forces, further seize and consolidate their own interests, it can be said that the members of this parliament, without exception, are people who must be eradicated.

And those lords who are forced to submit have the possibility of being co-opted by themselves, although Akali also resents this kind of unchivalry from the bottom of his heart, but now he must unite all the forces against Trist as much as possible, and he must be tolerant of all rivers, tolerant, and picky eating is naturally not conducive to his own development.

And everywhere, there are still some sporadic rebels, resisting Trist's tyranny, but they are already like candles in the wind, crumbling, among them there are even fewer loyal and brave people who are bent on recovering the country, and most of them are the kind of bandits who take advantage of the chaos to establish themselves as kings and scourge in the country, and must be exterminated.

As for Katerina's news, Reinhardt also said that he didn't know, because he hadn't been to the capital for a long time and didn't know the situation there, but now there is no news of Katarina's death, and it should be considered that she is still safe, but she was imprisoned by Trist.

"So what do we do next?" Akali carefully studied the map on the ground.

"The most important thing for us now is to gather as much strength as possible and avoid being discovered by Trist, so that our next plan will fall here. ”

Yunhai's fingers snapped and landed on the location of the "Gregory Mountains".
