Chapter 66: Returning Home (2)

Just as Theodore was about to leave with the First Legion and the Knights, Bode Aldalia of the Noldor Ranger suddenly sent someone to look for him, mysteriously, and refused to say anything about it.

For this good-looking and self-esteem-conscious Noldor elf, or the Noldor Warrior, Theodore doesn't hate him, but he doesn't particularly like him either. is also extremely good-looking, Salald is much cuter than him, he never puts his thoughts on his face openly, more in action, even if he has his own thoughts, he will act according to orders, just like the decisive battle between the Silent Forest and the Taal tribe, even if the attack time is calculated, Salald still waits for the signal to attack;

This is the golden lion, impulsive and calm, reckless is methodical planning, and always believes in his partner, firmly believes that there will be reinforcements, and is good at learning, can admit his own shortcomings, and it is a very pleasant thing to make friends with such a person, because he has principles and a bottom line.

But in Bode, Theodore found a somewhat morbid pride, or rather, many Noldor elves are like thisβ€”β€”β€”β€” which can be found in what he heard and saw along the way. They see it as some kind of compensation rather than hospitality. It's like a very good student, although he looks down on the poor student at the bottom of the class, he will never say it clearly, and he will even behave quite amiably.

But if one day this good boy has to borrow a sum of money from a poor student, he will definitely try his best to pay it back as soon as possible, and he always feels that he has no taste in his heart, and always wants to find an opportunity to make the other party owe him a favor. In Theodore's opinion, most of the Noldor elves were like this, except for a few rather sane ones.

In Theodore's view, Bode, the "commander", is at most the level of commanding a hundred-man team, without Jihua and without preparation, and even the situation of the enemy and us is not clear, and the God of War is bound to lose when he comes.

Of course, Theodor himself knew that if it were not for a complete number of professional officers, assisted by Mesimus, Belisarius, Pabrik, and Quintus, who gradually familiarized himself with the command of the Roman legions, he would probably not have been as familiar with the army as Bod.

In order to take care of the dignity of his Noldor friend, Theodore brought only a few knights with his cronies, instead of the entire Imperial Guard, and found Bode's tent in an inconspicuous place.

"Mr. Aldalia, I don't know what you're looking for me for at this time, but I will say that I'm very busy right now and don't have time to ............," Theodore muttered to himself as he lifted the curtain of the tent and walked in, and as soon as he looked up, he was caught by the sight before him.

The whole tent was filled with wooden shelves of various shapes, white, black, and red, with round gauntlets, square gauntlets, and cross-shaped gauntlets............ Dazzling, there are almost a hundred handles.

Curiosity drove Theodore to pick up a long black sheathed Noldor knife from the shelf, and slowly grasped the handle with his right hand, feeling the lightness of the texture. With a slight pull, the silver blade immediately burst out of its sheath, reflecting the fire in the tent, making him dizzy for a while.

"How's it going, how does it feel?" said a rather smug voice from behind Theodore.

"It's beautiful, it's light like a feather, and the craftsman who cast it must have added some very special metal to make it so light and sharp. Theodore replied involuntarily, and when he had finished speaking, he realized his faux pas, and quickly turned away, where Bode was looking at him with some amusement.

"Well, I'm sorry, I'm just curious. Theodore said rather embarrassed, putting the blade back on the shelf: "Of course, if you think there's anything wrong with me............"

"No, no, no, my friend, you misunderstood. Bode smiled and shook his head, pointed to all the shelves around here and said, "These, all of them are for you, they are gifts, just take a look, it's okay!"

"Gifts?" said Bode, and Theodore was even more bewildered: "What gifts?

"I never break my word, and Noldor never breaks my word. Bode's face became solemn: "I promised you that if you gave me a spear and help me restore the honor I lost, I would give you a gift that matches this honor, and that's it." A hundred spears, for a hundred knives. Hehe, it's a good deal. ”

"Well, almost all of the trophies on the shelves here are my trophies, which I won back during the hunting tournament. Bode walked over to a shelf, patted the long knives hanging on it, and then pointed to the knife rack opposite, saying, "The cross flowers are almost all the types used by the southern samurai, and the northern samurai prefer square shapes. ”

"These are not only my blessings, Lord Theodore Julian, but also those brothers who fought with me. Bode let out a long sigh, "Many of them broke their arms at the moment of Zuihou's charge, and they will never be able to wield a long knife again in their lives." While these are just spare weapons and aren't exquisite, I hope you don't dislike them. ”

"It's already very exquisite. Theodore couldn't help but say, "Seriously, I don't lie to you, even if it is a legion under my command, only the swords of the Imperial Guard can compare with these. ”

"If that's what you're happy with, then I don't know what to say. Bode Haha smiled, took out a long cloth bag from the box behind the knife holder, held it in his hand with a little pride, gently opened the seal, and a special Noldor long knife appeared in front of Theodore.

The slender sheath is covered in black leather, inlaid with silver at the ends, spiral gauntlets, somewhat resembling a circular swastika, and at the back of the handle is a gold ornament - a golden laurel crown on a ball.

"Its name is β€”β€”β€”β€” Beast Howl, it was ordered a long time ago, and it was originally intended to be a weapon of victory after this war is over, a sharp blade that will make orcs cry!" Bode said with some self-deprecation, and then held it into Theodore's hand, "Now it seems that you are better suited to have it than I am!"

"The blade that makes the orcs cry?" said Theodore, as he took the hilt and sheath, and an indescribable throbbing sounded from his heart, causing him to pull out the blade, and the white lightning left only a shadow in his sight, and the tip of the blade had already severed the wooden frame behind him.

"It's really, unimaginably sharp. Theodore whispered, "It's like magic, and I really want to see the master who forged this sword." ”

"Master Yi told me that the role of the knife is to kill the enemy, and the knife technique is to kill the enemy faster, and what the knife needs to do is to be strong and sharp. Bode's tone was steady: "What really needs to be practiced is the mind that holds the hilt of the sword, does not be devoured by bloodthirsty demons, and remains innocent." ”

"He was right. The young Caesar let out a long sigh and retracted the snow blade from its scabbard: "Many people have been turned into evil ghosts by this powerful liliang, and they regard the law of the jungle as the coordinates of their lives. ”

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

"Are you finally leaving? New Gar, and the Forest of Silence, this 'journey' is coming to an end. ”

The yellow sand is long, and the Knights of the Dawn under the banner of the Radiant Cross have once again embarked on a long journey. The only difference is that this time they are no longer defeated renegades, but victorious watchers, and there is a Pandragon descendant worthy of their followers standing under this banner.

"The war is not over. To be precise, as long as the imperial capital is not recaptured and the glory of the Holy Empire is restored, this war will not end, my Highness. Terenus looked at Helena, who was a little sad, and said in a magnetic tone peculiar to an old man, "The people of the north are waiting for your return." ”

"Are they really looking forward to it? What can I give them?" Helena shook her head: "War, and death. That's all I can do for them, and they're going to fight bloody battles for an empire that's ruined. ”

"More than that, Your Highness!" said the female knight Al Yin behind her, "You can give them dignity and make the empire a whole again." My father had told me that living outside the castle of a war lord was not the same as living under a unified and powerful empire. ”

"Xiexie your comfort, Ain. Helena smiled reluctantly, "Really...... Thank you very much!"

"We have plenty of gold, Your Highness. This gold can feed an army, and there are many wandering knights in the small towns and farms of the north who have no means of subsistence, and they can join you with a righteous title, and then you will have your own army, not rely entirely on these lords. ”

"I know you seem to have a good opinion of that Lord Theodore Julian, but we can't really go all the way with him, Your Highness. Terenus, who was a little unbearable, decided to persuade the princess: "You can borrow his liliang, but that's the bottom line." ”

"Weishenme, isn't he human?"

"But he's still a Roman, a Roman, not a Pande, and he's very ambitious!" Terenus muttered, "Even in that case, he never bowed to you!

"Dangerous?"

"Yes, very dangerous. Terenus nodded: "He worships the gods of Rome, and we believe in the Radiant Crossβ€”β€”β€”β€” this is the key difference, he also has the priests of those gods preach in the north, so that the Radiant Cross is replaced by those white-robed male gods and goddesses! When the legend of the Radiant Cross becomes dull, how many northerners will be willing to defend your family?!"
