Chapter 213, Return to Tranquility
When Ryan's body was recovered from the battlefield, almost everyone thought he was dead.
The Lady's God's Chosen Champion wears dozens of wounds, many of which are enough to kill the most powerful Holy Grail Knight on the spot. What's more frightening is that his whole body is full of filthy chaotic energy, and all knights dare not near.
A tragic victory, the battlefield is littered with the corpses of Chaos Daemons, Chaos Warriors, and Knights of Britannia.
"Lian!" The female knight jumped off the celestial horse, and she saw Ryan lying on the ground from a distance.
The female knight didn't think that much at all. She wore a full set of knight plate armor and rushed directly to where Ryan was.
"Oh! No, she will kill herself!" some knights exclaimed.
The Duke's daughter acted as if she hadn't heard it. Even if the chaotic energy might take her life in the next second, she ran towards Ryan without hesitation.
Someone is faster than her.
Morgiana appeared beside Ryan in the flickering white light. She chanted a spell to purify the filth on Ryan's body. When she saw Suria rushing over, the Lake God Witch frowned and was about to reprimand the girl. The rashness and recklessness of knights.
"No! Ryan, you can't do this, you promised me to watch me win the knight's conference!" The female knight ignored the strong chaos corruption, she stretched out her arms, and the chaos energy immediately burned the bright gauntlets It was charred.
She doesn't care.
The female knight hugged Ryan's body gently, and her voice was full of panic and fear: "I'm sorry! I'm really sorry, Ryan, my father and I are late."
Drops of water like pearls dripped on Ryan's face. The duke's daughter, who was usually dignified and elegant and didn't speak loudly, was crying. Seeing this, Mogiana couldn't speak the words of reprimand, so she said softly: "He still There is a heartbeat."
"Cough, cough, cough." Lying on the ground, Ryan coughed violently. The big hole in his chest could even see his beating heart. The face of God's Choice Champion was almost huddled together due to pain and weakness: " Did we win?"
"Yes, we won." Suria hugged Ryan tightly, and the female knight smiled through tears: "Great."
"Unbelievable, you defeated the Chaos Demon!" Lawn was covered in blood, and he approached with a long sword, admiring and sighing: "You took the spoils of Francois and me, Ryan, you did a good job."
François, Duke of Winford, also appeared. The unicorn sword in the Duke's hand was covered with the blood of Nurgle demons. The Duke himself led the knight army to set off, and King Richard chose to sit in the palace and wait for François. It was a bit late when Sowa led the army to the battlefield. Nurgle's army sent a large number of plague giant bees and plague messenger demons, and the knight army was blocked from advancing.
"Very well, I can finally rest." Ryan showed an ugly smile on his haggard face, then tilted his head and fell into a coma.
"Lian!!!" Surya yelled.
"Don't worry, my daughter, Ryan is the lady's God's Choice champion. He doesn't die so easily." Francois checked Ryan's injuries and was relieved to find that Ryan's life signs were very strong. The Duke took a picture Patting Suria on the shoulder, before I had time to say more, under the order of Morgiana, several lake god prophets came out of the crowd. Most of their beautiful faces were a little pale with excessive magic power. These lake god prophets bandaged Ryan The wound, and then Morgiana's icy voice sounded: "Send Ryan back to the Holy Grail Cathedral for treatment immediately!"
"Yes!" The lake gods and prophets immediately responded.
"I'm going too!" The female knight walked in front of the Lake God Witch, her dazzling long golden curly hair swaying with her master's movements.
"...Keep up." Morgiana didn't seem to like too much communication with the Duke's daughter. The Lake God Witch looked at the army of knights gathered in the field and shouted: "In the name of the lady, another victory! Praise Miss!"
"Victory! Victory! Victory!" The deafening cheers sounded,
Once again, humanity has won the battle against evil.
"Thank you for the lady's god-chosen champion - Ryan Macado! It was he who defeated the Chaos Demon, and it was he who decided the outcome of this war." Mogiana then shouted: "Under the glory of the lady , what should we do?"
"Ryan! Ryan! Ryan!" Thousands of knights and knight retinues shouted.
"Give him glory!"
"For the lady! For Britannia! Glory to him!"
"Lane! Ryan! Ryan!"
The knights all over the mountains and plains shouted Ryan's name, which was his supreme glory.
At the same time, Korona, the Church of the Goddess of Mercy.
The archbishop who escaped back to the headquarters of the Church of Goddess of Mercy locked herself in a secret room. She picked up a quill and wanted to silently write the formula for a special medicine for malaria.
After writing a few sentences, the archbishop immediately sensed the existence of someone else in the secret room, she subconsciously reached out and grabbed her staff, and shouted angrily, "Who is it?!"
"Don't~ just stay there." A purple-black energy ball hit the archbishop's back directly, and the archbishop, the goddess of mercy, was directly knocked down by the purple light ball and fell on the floor of the secret room paved with smooth stone slabs.
"Soul extraction!" The man in black robe appeared behind her, and the magic staff burning with blue flames bombarded the archbishop with another spell. The purple silk thread bound the middle-aged beautiful woman, and with her magic power, Even with her last resistance, everything dissipated into nothingness.
"It's really simple." The decayed and withered hand grabbed the parchment that recorded the special medicine for malaria, but there were no words on the paper. The archbishop, the goddess of mercy, struggled and said, "Who is it? Who are you?"
"I am honored to introduce myself. I am Arkhan, 'Black' Arkhan, the Lich King, and the most loyal servant of the master."
"You did everything? Finding the pharmacy? Also attracting the Nurgle army?"
"So, it's really simple." The black-robed man, or Akhan let out a foul breath. His words were full of politeness before, and his actions were graceful and polite, just like a refined gentleman, but he himself was already a man. Decaying corpses, this has to be said to be very weird.
Then the man in black and the archbishop, the goddess of mercy, disappeared into the secret room.
…………
When Ryan woke up again, it was already two days later.
Opening his eyes, Ryan found himself lying in the suite of the Holy Grail Cathedral where he lived before.
The heavy duvets and blankets were piled high, and two feather pillows were placed behind him. The early spring sun shone on his face. Outside the window, the flowers in the garden were in full bloom, the birds were singing, and a few faint rays of sunlight It sprinkled on his face, a little dazzling.
Ryan judged that the current time was either early morning or afternoon, and based on the body temperature, he thought it should be afternoon.
The fierce battle with the big devil is still vivid. The pain in the chest and limbs is not fake. Ryan's body is wrapped with a thick bandage. In addition to the hot pain under the bandage, there is also a cold feeling. It may be that he was raped. ointment.
His sword, warhammer, and broken armor were placed on the table far away. The psychic power armor was broken, but it doesn't matter. Ryan's power armor can be repaired by himself by injecting a lot of psychic energy. .
This is Ryan's first time facing the Chaos Demon. Although in the end he couldn't completely kill the Chaos Demon due to exhaustion of strength, it is enough to do this. He is only twenty-six years old this year, and even the Primarch needs time to grow .
"Um~" I wanted to move a little, but I felt a tearing feeling in my chest, and my internal organs were in pain, very painful. Ryan only felt his mouth was dry. After he tried a few times, he had to give up. :"anyone there?"
"Are you awake?" Brisk and chaotic footsteps sounded from one side of the suite, and Morgiana appeared with two lake god prophets. Her face was as cold as ever, but seeing Ryan woke up, she It seems that he also let out a sigh of relief.
"You guys, go down." Morgiana said to the two lake god prophets.
"Yes." The two lake god prophets went down.
"Can you give me a glass of water?" Ryan said with a wry smile, "I'm a little... inconvenient."
Morgiana is wearing a tulle silk chiffon dress today, her fragrant wavy long hair hangs over her soft shoulders, a golden laurel wreath is worn on her head, and a gold belt inlaid with gemstones loops around her slender waist On the ground, the bare slender feet floated in the air and flew towards Ryan.
She poured a glass of water and handed it to Ryan: "It's incredible."
Ryan couldn't reach out to take the water glass. Seeing him like this, Morgiana didn't say anything, so the lake goddess fed him water.
Ryan coughed several times in a row, and then asked a little strangely: "Ahem~ incredible?"
"When you were rescued back to the Holy Grail Cathedral, you fell into a deep coma. I was very confident in my divine arts, but... almost none of the healing arts are useful to you. On the contrary, it is you who are useful. "Mogiana put the water glass on the small wooden table in front of the bed, and sat on the head of the bed, her green eyes staring at Ryan, with some strange emotions in her tone: "Get out of that state of frequent death, your It only took a few hours for your body, and after only two days, you regained consciousness. From the current point of view, you only need to rest for more than ten days before you can walk on the ground."
"Your injury, even if the Holy Grail Knight survived, he would have to struggle for several days, and then he would have to rest in bed for at least a few months before he could walk... It's incredible."
"Oh, this is really good news. I want to share this good news with my friends." Ryan's face was haggard and unnaturally pale. He forced a smile, but it looked very ugly .
At least Ryan felt that his smile was no different from his cry.
"Almost all the Holy Grail Knights and the lords in Courona visited you when you were unconscious. They sent you a lot of condolences, and I arranged for people to put them in the warehouse." Mogiana signaled Ryan lay down, and then said: "In addition, the Marquis Suria came to visit you for three hours, and there is a Miss Emilia who claims to be your maid, and she even proposed to live with you , I was kicked out."
"Uh... she is indeed my maid." Ryan said awkwardly: "You don't need to rush..."
"So what if it's your maid? Is the Holy Grail Cathedral a place she can come in and out at will?" Morgiana said bluntly, without mercy.
That's why I don't like living in this place! Ryan had a thought in his mind, and he could only sigh helplessly. What Morgiana said was indeed true. The Holy Grail Cathedral is not allowed to enter and leave at will. There is the town of the Lake God and Witch, and there are more than a dozen Holy Grail knights stationed nearby. Except for the Cathedral of the Fairy in the Lake in the Principality of Carcassonne, where most of the Knights of the Holy Grail are stationed, this may be the third safest place in Britannia.
The safest place is Ryan's territory, which no one knows but Ryan himself.
"You can rest here during this time, and we will go south together when the knight meeting is over." Mogiana explained a little: "The upper echelon of the kingdom is still discussing about your reward, but most of the duke's opinions are still Tend to honor and substantial material rewards. You were only made a baron last spring. If you were promoted to an earl now... it would be too fast. A first-class Grand Cross is already a certainty. Pick a few things from the church's treasury, in addition to the reward of gold coins."
After knowing that he could not be promoted to the title of knighthood, Ryan was a little disappointed, but he also understood that he, who was conferred the title of baron only last year, had already made a sudden breakthrough. In Litania, except for the Duke of Connaught, which fell to the enemy, every inch of land, including uninhabited places, is ruled by someone. The normal promotion process often requires the efforts of several generations. The prequels haven't changed.
Ryan warned himself not to worry, there are still many opportunities to fight in the future, he has made great contributions twice in a row, and he was able to let the great nobles of the kingdom discuss the matter of promoting him, which shows that he is very close to the title of earl.
Furthermore, fighting against chaos is an obligation, a guarantee of survival, not a capital for asking for credit.
Morgiana seemed to have nothing else to do, she just leaned against the head of the bed, chatting with Ryan.
"The knight meeting is still going on as usual?" Ryan said lonely looking at the sunset outside the window.
"Yes, it will continue as usual. People need this conference to heal the pain caused by the war. Since you exiled the great demon in a short time, the loss of this war will not be great, so I and Richard discussed it and decided to hold the knight meeting as usual." Morgiana glanced at Ryan, and her tone suddenly became full of inexplicable meaning: "Worried about the Marquis Suria?"
"You'll give her an award." Lane didn't answer the question directly.
"Yes, she swears that she will bring this trophy back for you." Morgiana smiled lightly, with an indescribably cold smile: "If she can do it, then do it."
Ryan thought it sounded like Morgiana didn't like Suria?
Strange, there is no reason, what contradiction can there be between the Duke's daughter and the Lake God Witch? She is also the daughter of Holy Grail Knight François. Why does Morgiana seem to disapprove of Suria from her tone?
At this moment, there seemed to be an unusual noise in the quiet corner of the suite. Ryan, who was seriously injured, did not respond, but Morgiana immediately noticed that there was someone else in the room.
There are infiltrators!
Morgiana stood up, and the Lake God Witch yelled coquettishly, "Who is it?"
Writing Warhammer is really mind-consuming, the author needs everyone’s comfort, it would be even better if there is a reward hehehehehe~
