Chapter 101: Ranked Eight
Crack.
Crack.
The exquisite and shiny pointed greaves made a crisp sound when stepped on the ground.
The Silver Crown Knight walked into Leia City step by step, just like taking a leisurely stroll.
The group of defenders who blocked the city gate were so frightened that their livers and gallbladders split apart. They screamed in terror and ran towards the city, not daring to look back and unable to resist at all.
"For Leia! For glory!"
"Follow to the death! Destroy the enemy!"
"Charge with me!!"
One captain raised his sword and yelled.
Under his leadership, the few soldiers who still had courage roared and launched a desperate charge together with him.
Jilan’s eyes narrowed.
Buzz——
I saw the figure of the Silver Crown Knight flashing, moving across more than ten meters at a speed that even he could not see clearly, and the air was violently violent like waves. shock.
The soldiers it passed along the way were all motionless!
In the blink of an eye.
Bah! Bah! !
The heads of those soldiers, without exception, all flew up!
Blood splattered and headless corpses fell down.
But it’s not over yet——
When more than a dozen corpses fell to the ground, they decomposed like scattered building blocks, with all their limbs broken off and turned into four equal parts. If someone weighs it, they will find that the weight of each portion is exactly the same, without any difference!
On the left chest of each corpse's torso, fine sword marks three fingers wide were exposed, and the heart was pierced. In fact, even the other internal organs were also struck by the sword, but no external sword wounds could be found.
The head fell like rain and hit the ground with a thud.
Looking at the Silver Crown Knight, there is still not a drop of blood on his body, and he has even sheathed his sword without knowing when.
He stood upright, raising his head, silently staring at the gloomy sky.
Soon, a majestic knight team poured in outside the city.
There are only fifty or sixty of them, and the team is like a long dragon. Each one wears full-covering armor and white robes, and rides a tall horse. Even the horses are covered with a layer of scale-like armor, which is extremely shiny.
This scene is just like what Jilan saw in his dream.
The third female knight in the front row is holding a flag, which is a "white cross" pattern surrounded by olive branches and garlands.
Gilan did not step forward rashly, but ducked into the alley.
He is waiting for an opportunity.
An opportunity to gain the favor of the Silver Crown Knight.
Thus getting close to the Knights and gaining unknown information and even benefits.
Soon.
This opportunity has come.
The Knight with the Silver Crown rode in front and led the knights straight down the street.
Perhaps the flag fluttering in the wind was too eye-catching and too deeply rooted in people's hearts. Many people walked out of the stone and wooden houses on both sides of the road.
Most of them are city residents infected with the plague, with sallow complexion and thin muscles, and constant coughing. But the eyes looking at the knights were bright and full of hope.
At this time.
Whoosh!
The silver-crowned knight at the front raised his right fist high.
The fifty or sixty knights wearing helmets and armor behind him actually shouted in unison:
"Protect the faith and heal the suffering! To end the troubled times, we will not hesitate to fight!"
Those voices were full of piety, like prayers and declarations of war.
There is an inexplicable appeal.
Even Ji Lan felt a rush of emotion and blood boiling when she heard it.
Xilulu!
The Silver Crown Knight suddenly reined in his horse and stopped.
The knights behind him are also in uniform, waiting in place.
The deputy captain dismounted from his horse, walked straight to a young girl suffering from an epidemic cough, and pulled out the cross sword from her waist with a clang.
The cold light is biting and breathtaking.
The girl screamed and fell to the ground.
The younger brother beside him was about to rush forward and stop his sister.
But there is a figure who is faster than him!
唰——
It was a man wearing a white owl mask, wearing strange clothes, and holding an ax in his hand. "Please don't hurt them."
Jilan said solemnly.
“Shouldn’t you abide by the knight’s creed and swear to the death to fulfill the motto of ‘protect the faith and heal the suffering’?”
“A doctor with a beak from a foreign country?”
Under the cross-masked armor of the Silver Crown Knight, there was a light sigh.
He immediately chuckled and said:
"I don't want to hurt them. On the contrary, I will save them."
Phew!
The Silver Crown Knight flicked the cross sword and held it straight in front of him, with his hands lightly stacked on the round-headed sword hilt.
Being so close, Gilan could even clearly see the cross pattern carved on the handle, as well as some incomprehensible ancient Xilu characters.
"Please get out of the way. I, Agni, act in all my life and never speak falsely."
A gentle voice came from the cross-visor facing Gilan.
Jilan stared at the other person for a few seconds.
Then he remained silent and turned sideways.
The Silver Crown Knight nodded to him and immediately came to the siblings.
The young boy cast a hostile look, but Agni didn't take it seriously. Everyone present didn't even see him draw his sword, only to hear a clanking sound.
Next second.
The cross sword of the Silver Crown Knight has been quietly sheathed.
The girl's armpits, inner thighs, two centimeters above her wrists, and four centimeters above her ankles all had a thin slash like a line, from which black and purple pus and blood oozed.
"Sister!" The boy was startled and exclaimed.
But the girl looked shocked, because she suddenly found that the stinging and itching in her lungs had disappeared, and her body was not that weak, and she had regained some of her strength.
She quickly pulled her brother to kneel down together and kowtowed to the Silver Crown Knight.
"Thank you, Lord Knight!" the girl said gratefully.
Standing aside, Gillan held his breath.
The moment Agni drew his sword, his spiritual kingdom was touched. The cross sword bonfire fluctuated violently and swayed endlessly like never before.
It seems that the mysterious sword wind has triggered a very strong magnetic field!
Gilan knows very well that this is by no means as simple as scratching the wound and drawing out pus and blood, and it is even more impossible to cure the Black Death, especially the Black Death that has been contaminated by mysterious power and miasma!
Agni’s swordsmanship has extremely mysterious power!
"Healing Knights! Healing Knights!!"
When residents on both sides of the road saw this miraculous scene, they shouted because they saw hope of living.
The Silver Crown Knight doesn't care about this.
He turned to look at Jilan and praised:
"Facing the strong, you are neither humble nor arrogant, and you dare to take risks to protect the weak. You are very good."
Jilan saw this , knowing that the opportunity had come, he took advantage of the situation and said in a deep voice:
"I want to join your command, and I want to learn from you... the swordsmanship that healed diseases and saved lives just now!"
The Silver Crown Knight remained silent, staring at Gilan for a few seconds.
Immediately, he said calmly:
"This swordsmanship is called 'Gerald's Bloodletting Sword'. It was created by Captain William. It requires extremely high talent... But if you really If you are interested, you can take the test first. If you pass, I will make you a member of the Knights."
"Okay!"
Gillan replied.
The Silver Crown Knight nodded to him, then turned his head and called out:
"Para, take him down and follow the team first... I will leave the test to you. "
"Yes, Deputy Captain Agni!"
A blond young man in the team responded quickly.
He wears light armor and a white cloak. After turning over and dismounting, he strode over with his helmet in hand.
Seeing Jilan's strange dress, I just took a second look and was not surprised.
"New here, what's your name?" the young man asked.
"Gilan Iros."
"Hello Jilan, come with me first. The specific test will be discussed later when we set up camp."
The man patted Gillan's shoulder affectionately, and then led him into the ranks of the Knights.
When they came to the horse, the blond young man did not get on the horse, but held the reins and walked with Gilan. He turned to Gilan and said:
"By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Para Celsus."
