Chapter 64: Merlin
Gawain?
After chewing on the name a little, Zhang Ang remembered the identity of this silver-armored knight. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
No wonder the Knights of the Round Table are so sure that they won't chase after them, it turns out that the one who is here to protect you is a Knights of the Round Table! And he is the third person in the Knights of the Round Table after King Arthur of the "Sword Saint" and Lancelot, the "Knight of the Lake".
I should have thought that if I could defeat a veteran martial saint like the "Child of Light" Ku Chulin, who would it be if it wasn't the "Silver Knight" Gawain, who would it be?
"However, I still don't understand a little bit......" After thinking about it, Zhang Ang asked again: "I know that your protector has a lot of power in the government and the opposition, but you have the support of the Knights of the Round Table, why was he driven into the sea?"
Although her face was a little ugly, Queen Elizabeth still said truthfully: "No, in this civil war, I did not have the support of the Knights of the Round Table, most of them remained neutral, and the only one who chose to help me was Gao Wenqing." ”
"That's it......" Zhang Ang stretched out his voice, so it makes sense, if there is the support of the Knights of the Round Table, then Cromwell, the protector, no matter how powerful he is, will not be able to usurp the throne at all, not to mention anything else, as long as the Lord of the "Sword Saint" makes a move, he can instantly turn the tide of the battle and make the English royal family invincible!
But obviously, this time it was the personal action of the "Silver Knight" Gawain, who participated in the incident as an individual, and did not represent the attitude of the entire Knights of the Round Table, so the Lord Protector Cromwell was so unscrupulous, and even sent people to chase him to the sea.
This also explains why they have been floating on the sea, hiding in Tibet, instead of choosing to take refuge on the mainland.
More than 20 years ago, the Knights of the Round Table crossed east, but was blocked by the Holy See, and King Arthur, the "Sword Master", and St. Paul, the "Pope", fought in the English Channel for three days and three nights, and finally lost under the unequaled iron fist of the Pope.
In this battle, King Arthur, the "Sword Master", not only lost his original title of the first in the world, but was also forced to swear that the Knights of the Round Table would never set foot on the mainland, so one of the top martial arts forces in the continent was forced to stay on the British Isles until now.
Of course, the members of the Knights of the Round Table can also choose to disguise, change their faces, and secretly go to the mainland, but it is good that this is not discovered, once discovered, what awaits him will be a thunderous blow from the Holy See and the destruction of the Knights of the Round Table's reputation for hundreds of years.
Although not all of the members of the Knights of the Round Table are martial saint level, they are all top martial arts powerhouses without exception, and they all have the dignity of a strong man who matches them, and they have always demanded themselves with strict knightly creeds, and they can't do such a thing of breaking their oath.
Of course, Empress Elizabeth can go to the mainland by herself, but she does not have the support of a strong enough martial arts powerhouse, how long can she live in the hands of the batch of chasers sent by the Protector?
And now, although she has the protection of the "Silver Knight" at sea and can ensure a certain amount of safety, how can she return to the country without boarding the mainland, traveling around the world, winning allies, and seeking the support of other powers?
This puts us in a dilemma!
Thinking of this, Zhang Ang hesitated.
If he wants, he can protect this Queen Elizabeth, and take her to Germany for political asylum, and when Germany grows stronger in the future, he can even fight back to England in her name, help her recover the country, and receive some benefits.
Zhang Ang hesitated whether this matter was worth it. Germany will inevitably grow rapidly in the future, and with the help of the Vikings, it will not be difficult to fight the British Isles, but what about after it is hit? Those English troops are okay to say, but when the armies of other countries enter the territory of England, will the Knights of the Round Table take action? This is one of the top martial arts forces in the Holy See, and King Arthur, the second highest martial saint of the title level recognized as the second in the world, is in charge, will it be a little too risky?
And even if she helps her recover the country, what can she get? Of course, she doesn't care about the land power, gold and silver treasures, and what she asks for is nothing more than the martial arts of that door, a book of martial arts secrets, but now that she has obtained a large box, as a royal treasure, at least half of all the martial arts in England, will it not be cost-effective to kill for the remaining half?
Knock, knock, knock......
Zhang Angzheng was looking through the cheats and thinking about it, but there was a knock on the door of the captain's room.
How could anyone be disturbed at this time? Could it be that there is another enemy attack?
Hearing a knock on the door, Queen Elizabeth frowned and asked, "Who?"
"I'm looking for Gawain. Outside the door sounded a somewhat old male voice.
Hearing this voice, the face of the "Silver Knight" Gao Wen, who had been sitting quietly with his eyes closed, changed, and Zhang Ang could clearly find that his expression was a little nervous and apprehensive.
I saw him stand up, walk to the door, take a deep breath, and then open the door respectfully, his voice with some hesitation: "Teacher Merlin, why are you ......?"
Outside the door was an old man with white hair, wearing a somewhat shabby linen robe, holding an ordinary wooden staff in his hand, and his body was not very powerful, looking like an ordinary person.
The old man walked into the cabin, looked at Knight Gawain with a kind face, and said slowly, "Arthur said you want to quit the Knights?"
Hearing the old man's question, Knight Gawain paused for a moment before replying solemnly: "Yes! I'm going to the mainland!"
The old man looked around the entire cabin, his gaze swept over Zhang Ang, and finally stopped at Queen Elizabeth: "To protect her?"
"Yes!" said Knight Gawain, in a resolute tone.
"Are you really decided?" the old man sighed and asked.
"Yes!" Knight Gawain remained resolute, "I don't know which is better for England, the Protector's parliamentary reform or the original royal rule, but I promised to protect her, then I will fulfill my oath!"
"Even if you give up your identity as a Knight of the Round Table?" the old man then asked, looking at the handsome knight with a resolute face.
"Even if you lose your identity as a Knight of the Round Table!" Knight Gawain's voice was still unequivocal.
"Okay......" The old man glanced at Knight Gawain deeply: "I understand, I will go back to persuade Arthur, and I will also go to say hello to the Holy See." From now on, you're not a Knight of the Round Table, you can go to the mainland!"
With that, he turned and walked towards the gate.
"Teacher......" Knight Gawain's voice trembled with an unconcealable tremor.
The old man stopped, but did not look back, his voice still calm and kind: "Do you remember the oath you made when you joined the Knights?"
"Remember!" said Knight Gawain.
"That's good!" With that, the old man's figure suddenly became hazy, and then like a bubble bursting, he changed from something to nothing, and disappeared in an instant at the door of the captain's room.
