To the south of Borriello Manor, on the dirt road, a faint dark red firelight slowly lit up.

Under the command of Grand Duke Onesa, the remnants of the "Fire Demon Knights" who served as the strikers have arrived.

In its heyday, this famous knightly army also had an establishment of more than 20,000 people. However, after several years of fighting between the north and the south, these powerful warriors either shed their blood and fell on the battlefield, or burned out the last trace of life and soul power, and completely dissipated like ashes. By now, there were less than three thousand Fire Demon Knights who remained by her side.

Fire Knight, this is originally a short-lived profession.

In fact, there is no such category in the usual division of the occupational system. Under the transformation of the "Fire Demon King" Banargomo, these warriors no longer rely solely on martial arts to fight the enemy, and they are also fundamentally different from magicians or demon warriors.

Although, on the surface, they still retain their former bodies, but their noble souls have been betrayed to demons. The flame patterns that imitated the flame demons were engraved into their bodies, giving them extraordinary demonic skills and the destructive power to fight on the battlefield.

However, behind such a rich harvest, there must be a price to be paid.

An ordinary order of exiled knights, so desperate that they sometimes even have to flee like horse thieves. But all of a sudden, it has enough strength to rival the country. This transformation is not easy, even with the help of epic beings like Barnalgomo.

At that time, Oneisha went through a lot of hardships and risked her life to go deep into the "Tower of Red Flame". Fang just got this slim opportunity. At that time, the people of the dead country were forced to leave their fertile homeland and wander among the peaks of the southern foothills of the Cast Iron Mountains, struggling to survive in the barren mountains. The Anlan bloodline, which has been in place for thousands of years, seems to be facing the end of destruction, and they. He will never be able to return to his former homeland.

It was in this situation that all the remaining military strength of An Lan, all these loyal knights, resolutely accepted the painful and evil ritual of transformation.

The secret method of the Fire Demon King, the determination to die for revenge, and the abandonment of all future and hope are the price that the "Fire Demon Knight" needs to consume.

Since then, what has been burned in the flames of the boundless war is the magic crystals that supply the magic power. And the spirit, soul, and life force of these knights.

Banargomo ignited the fire in them, but was unable to provide them with burning firewood. In fact, the Fire Demon King could not give such a powerful force out of thin air, and he only used a unique method to shorten the knights' original forty or fifty years of life to ten years. From now on. The vitality condensed to the extreme burned out a blazing spark. Swirling on the dark spear and the fierce hooves of the horses, all the fields were burned to scorched earth for thousands of miles in the wilderness.

Having embarked on this path of no return, they have abandoned all their future, the enjoyment and life of being a human being are beyond the touch, and the hatred of destroying the country has become the main driving force for them to move forward. Until the yin and yang are wrong. The Principality of Anlan was re-established in the hands of Onesha, and the personal hope and the revival of the homeland were completely integrated, which became the greatest consolation in their hearts.

Therefore, when the Holy See of Light invaded again, the "Flame Demon Knight" rushed to the front line of the battlefield without hesitation. Bloody battles with Innedir's army.

The external troubles disappeared, and they triumphed, but the signs of internal strife were like lingering ghosts over An Lan.

The "Flame Demon Knight" has worked hard for many years, and it is about to be ruined. Those comrades who were reduced to ashes in the flames of war and hearts will immediately lose all meaning in everything they have done. Therefore, when An Lan fell into this kind of disintegration again, how resentful they should have been in their hearts.

It is precisely for this reason that when the blue flag was raised again, and Onisha summoned the warriors under her command to fight to the death, the remaining warriors of the "Fire Demon Knights" gathered again and set foot on the battlefield of conquest and rebellion.

Like a trickle, drops of burning blood and tears gathered from all corners of Anfen, and a surging stream of fire, in the dripping night rain, rushed towards the northern suburbs of the city.

It was there that the estate and base camp of the Marquis de Borriello were entrenched. It was one of the three marquis of the principality, the main leader of the aristocratic camp, Onetsa's worst enemy, and a traitor who colluded with Snowton.

The power of the aristocratic alliance is too strong, and An Lan's future, or rather, Onesha's future, is so slim that there is no glimmer of light. But until then, her lowest dignity could not be desecrated. Moreover, if this night attack can be successful in one fell swoop, then even if the fate of defeat is irretrievable, it may be possible to prevent Anlan from becoming an enclave of the Snowton Empire.

This is also the dying struggle of one of the last bloodlines of the Anlan royal family.

"Arrived?" Onissa asked, grabbing a distant glance at the sparsely lit manor ahead.

"Your Highness, five hundred steps ahead is the main gate of Borriello Manor," the knight commander beside him bowed his head slightly, and reported, "It is not yet known whether the other party is on guard." ”

"Although we are already marching at full speed, the old fox Borriello will definitely be on guard, and it is likely that he has received the information," Onessa frowned and said softly, "However, he may not know what the gap is between his private soldiers and the real army. ”

"Your Highness doesn't need to worry about this," the knight commander lifted his visor and said with a smile, "We'll let him understand it deeply now." For any Fire Knight, death is both the end and a relief, so at this time, he instead removed his usual solemn expression like pig iron and put on a mocking smile.

"Well, my knights," Onessa commanded in a deep breath, "straighten out your formation and prepare to charge." ”

Grand Duke of Anlan's Mansion, west side gate.

Allegri turned in surprise and looked out into the northern night sky.

In the dripping rain line, a dark red fire surged up in the deep background. In his senses, an indescribable amount of flame power suddenly erupted.

Allegri was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the captain of the guard with an anxious face on the other side, and nodded in understanding.

"What's wrong?" Irlo, who sensed something strange, leaned over and asked suspiciously.

"On the way," Allegri waved his hand, walked briskly toward the horse, and ordered urgently, "Let's go!" (to be continued......
