Chapter 1061, Masked Man

Latest URL:

The preparation of Gray Knight recruits has been started since Ryan was only an earl.

The Church of the Fairy in the Lake searches for boys with magical talents from all over Britannia, and then enters the training cabin set up by the Emperor and the Imperial Army to start training. The whole process is long and boring. Whether they can survive basically depends on Whether the boy's own spirit is strong enough to survive Ryan's spiritual impact.

These mighty gray knights were created by the supreme power of the emperor, the pure blood of Ryan and the tenacious will of Malcador. Their missions are intertwined with each other due to their sacred beliefs. The psychic energy of space is bound to coexist. Each of these five recruits is not only an excellent knight, but also a psychic user. Each of them has completed numerous tests and has a preliminary understanding of psychic energy.

The five gray knights have already learned two of the most basic skills of the gray knights. The first is the light of spiritual energy. This skill allows gray knight recruits to be shrouded in shining pure aura during battle. This light can cover Enemy sight, protects the Gray Knight against enemy magic and ranged attacks.

The second skill is dispel. The gray knight's psionic ability can expel all magic including the eight winds. Of course, it depends on the opponent's magic strength and the gray knight's own psionic strength.

In addition to these two basic skills, the Gray Knight named Petain has even mastered the third special ability - Thunder Strike (also known as Thunder Palm), Petain has learned how to use his powerful spiritual power to make himself The ability to tear the mortal world can ignore the armor with one blow, directly tear the opponent's flesh and blood through spiritual energy, and increase the speed of all nearby friendly forces.

It has to be said that the recruits grew up very fast with the Primarch. They had never felt such a powerful force and such a high glory. When these recruits returned to their hometown, they were considered the gift of the goddess and gods Heralds, villagers and even their own parents thanked the goddess and the king for their gifts.

But for Petain and others, everything they perceive has undergone tremendous changes. During the years of cultivation in the training cabin, they have been instilled with a huge amount of knowledge and understand the meaning of their lives.

More than 10,000 years have passed, too many sacrifices, too much pain.

Five recruits stood in front of the Primarch, Gray Knight recruit Petain stood at the top, he looked at the Primarch in front of him, Ryan Malcador had accomplished countless miracles and victories, his glory was world-renowned, his power was world-famous Wushuang, he has resisted several invasions and allowed the commoners of the Knight Kingdom to live and work in peace and contentment. His great expeditions have brought destruction to darkness time and time again, and brought glory back to Britannia.

Sacrifice is the cornerstone of mankind, blood is the fertile ground for growth, the battle may never come to an end, the sky is always dark, but there is still hope, the dawn never dies, the Holy Seat of the Lord of Humanity is burning, five recruits They swear that they will fight to the last moment for the survival of mankind, until their souls return to the embrace of the Emperor.

That is their highest pursuit and the meaning of life.

"What's the situation in the Gray Mountains and Arden Forest?" Sitting behind his seat, Ryan asked his five sons.

"The situation is not good, my lord," Petain said to Ryan. The Gray Knight recruit had just returned home to see his parents. Ten years later, his parents were already very old, but seeing his son come home was already a Surprisingly, Petain also brought a lot of food and cloth back home, and at the same time told his parents softly that he had been chosen by the goddess and became the legendary son of Brittany.

The ignorant serfs knew very little. They only knew that in Brittania, the lady of the lake was the eternal god, and the serfs were ecstatic to have children serving under the goddess' skirt.

To be honest, Petain felt sad about this scene, but he was helpless.

"Not good?" Ryan frowned: "Say clearly,

Pétain, and Foch and Joffre, what I want is an answer, not this kind of ambiguous answer. A bad harvest for serfs can also be said to be bad, and an entire village has been completely wiped off the horizon, which can also be said to be bad. . "

"The Beastman tribe in Arden Forest has begun to fully recover, Your Majesty." Pétain hesitated and said, "According to reports from the outposts and serfs in the former Duchy of Artois, the signs of Beastmen's activities have become more frequent. Many settlements in the eastern part of the Arden Forest have been attacked by Beastmen on a small scale, and there are also occasional Ugly Beasts in the west."

"Has it started again?" Ryan nodded slowly, unknowingly, more than 20 years have passed since he destroyed the Demon Rock, and it seems that the Beastmen are going to make a comeback: "Why didn't I hear the report?"

"Holy Grail Knight Baron Claude thinks he can solve the problem by himself." Pétain said seriously: "In fact, the baron has carried out several sieges, but the results are not satisfactory, and compared to solving the problem of the beastmen, There's another group of people who are considered bigger trouble and worse off."

"Another group of people?" Ryan asked strangely. As the Holy Grail Knight and the Baron of the Territory, Claude could of course choose to organize his own army to solve the problems in the territory, so it is understandable that he did not report it, but the other group did not report That's weird.

"It's the legendary veiler, Your Majesty." Petain explained in detail the three forces entrenched in the Arden Forest.

In addition to Baron Claude, the Knight of the Holy Grail, and the revived Beastman, there is another force in the Arden Forest, which is a large group of human "black households". All old and sick.

There is actually a masker? Lane frowned.

The concealers are all desperadoes. They belong to a group called happy people. They originated from the famous Red Flame Expedition. After this great expedition, many serfs who followed the Lord Knight saw different Scenery, after the serfs saw the relatively equal social structure of Araby, the freedom and equality advocated by the southern countries, and the rising military exploits of the empire, they sneered at the "chivalry" of the knights and began to rebel, wandering around They are outside the laws made by the nobles, but they fight for justice by robbing the rich and giving to the poor, and overthrowing the tyrannical nobles.

Since Ryan came to Britannia, the gang and the number of concealed Hans have been greatly reduced. After all, they can farm steadily and rely on military merits, and they can move freely in the sun. Who wants to continue to be a bandit? However, in the north where reforms are not so strong and some remnants of the old aristocrats are preserved, the concealed Han gang still exists, and the largest one is the concealed Han gang in the forest of Arden. King, and most of the knight lords don't bother to pay attention.

It is worth mentioning that the Hikers were never composed of only serfs, and many knights and nobles also chose to join the ranks of the Hiders. A knightly lord with a serious stain, and some great nobles who want to correct their previous fatal mistakes.

In the history of Britannia, there was even a Holy Grail knight who joined the Hierarch group, just to make up for his own mistakes, and regarded a devout noble couple as a major stain on the wrongful killing of Chaos believers. This Holy Grail knight put aside his glorious status and identity, opted to join the Masked Han gang, and spent years raising the couple's fugitive three children before leaving.

Of course, the Masked Han gang has been supplemented on a large scale this time - Ryan's order to cancel the privileges of the nobles has forced a large group of old nobles to go on expeditions, or have their titles revoked and their lands confiscated. The children fled into the depths of the forest to plot revenge, and some deserted while serving in the army.

Ryan didn't care about it. On the one hand, this is a small problem. As long as this group of people lives in peace deep in the forest, there will be no trouble. The second is that Ryan has been fighting every year since he succeeded to the throne. He basically doesn't have much time to pay attention to it.

"The name of this masked Han gang is 'Free Britannia', and it is said that the leader of the Hidden Man gang is nicknamed General Charles." Pétain obviously disdains this leader: "Your Majesty, what should we do? ?”

"Call a large army immediately!" Ryan's answer was simple and clear: "I have ordered the Sixth Marshal Bertrand to be the head coach and the Seventh Marshal Rokossovsky to be the deputy. A battalion, the 1st Guards Lancer Regiment and the Musilon army are dispatched to carry out armed reconnaissance on the Arden Forest!"

"Your Majesty, is this necessary?" The five recruits were very surprised by this.

"The army will become rusty if they haven't fought for too long." Ryan said lightly: "Let them clean up the beastmen. As for the group of concealers, tell Bertrand to persuade them to surrender as much as possible, but if necessary, allow them to attack within a certain range." Clean up, as for the five of you... also follow along, responsible for cleaning up the corruption and checking whether there are Chaos believers among this group of concealers."

"yes!"

……… I am the dividing line for armed investigation………

After Ryan gave an order, a huge army was assembled in Musillon, including several Musillon infantry regiments, more than a dozen fanatical knight-errant knights and several kingdom knights, an artillery regiment, and A Halberd Battalion, a Great Sword Battalion, a Musket Grenadier Battalion, and the 1st Guards Lancer Corps of the Old Guard, with an army of about 12,000 people, marched towards the depths of the Arden Forest.

The wood elf rangers, the "Emerald Wind" squad, are also here.

Cross the valleys and glades, glorious river valleys, and dense forests of the Knight Kingdom.

Marshal of Brittany and Commander of the Old Guard Bertrand was walking in the dense forest. The former leader of the Bergerac Bandit was full of emotion. Raymond said: "Many years have passed, and I have come to this deep forest again. I always have a feeling of going home."

"Your Majesty's first battle in the Kingdom was to deal with the Beastmen in the Forest of Arden, a chivalrous battle." Lei Meng also said quite relaxed, the old Battalion Commander of the Guards is also an out-and-out veteran, He discussed this matter and said unceremoniously: "I have to say that the Marquis Anxi, the coach at the time, was really a waste. Under his leadership, the army of chivalry was almost wiped out. Make a decisive decision and choose to directly attack the Wanmo Rock, maybe in the next few years, the entire northern part of the kingdom will be in danger."

Neat and full of majesty, the old guards who act like art are walking in the middle of the team, with scouts on both sides, Rokossovsky is wearing a new dwarf master rune full-body plate armor, the former base Marshal Slev did not participate in these topics, he just looked around vigilantly.

But Beria is full of interest in this topic. The Ugol people have always regretted that they joined Ryan's camp too late and did not have enough qualifications. Facing Ryan's first battle after coming to Britannia, Beria was very moved. Interest: "Your Excellency Bertrand, it is said that the right army at that time was almost successfully ambushed by the Beastmen, if a local serf soldier risked his life to tell His Majesty that it would rain and let His Majesty deduce the Beastmen's attack time, the right army is very dangerous?"

Unexpectedly, when Beria said this, everyone fell silent, especially the veterans of the Old Guards. Many veterans with bushy beards couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Beria immediately realized whether he had said something wrong, and quickly apologized: "I didn't mean it."

"Denis, from Bastogne." Bertrand sighed: "He is a brave young man, good job, he was awarded the title of sergeant because he reminded His Majesty in time, and he followed His Majesty all the way to fight, and repeatedly stood up. Military achievements, when I first joined His Majesty's command, he had already served for several years, and he was successfully selected into the Old Guards later on, but unfortunately, Denis died in the battle of Valaya's Gate."

"Almost all the soldiers who fought with Deni died in the battle. Deni and Amedai died in the battle of Valaya's Gate, Tim died in the battle of Titan's Gate, and Steve died in He In the Battle of Zieg, Didier died in the Battle of Wolfen." The oldest sergeant major Rothschild in the Old Guards said, this veteran who has served for 25 years has scars all over his face. He looked fierce enough to swallow people in one gulp: "There are only a few of us old guys left, but as long as I have breath, I will continue to fight for His Majesty."

Everyone was silent. Yes, it was His Majesty Ryan who lifted these mud-legged people out of humbleness. It was His Majesty Ryan who brought them a higher status and glory. In return, they were willing to die for His Majesty.

There was singing in the army, the new and popular Britannian bard, "King Llane."

"My king Ryan, recruit troops."

"Knights and nobles, go on stage one by one."

"My king of Ryan, the order is loud and clear."

"Who will follow me on an expedition to all directions?"

"Pious people, stand up and take responsibility."

"I swear that I will follow my king."

"Prudent people, think twice."

"Where does my king plan to go on an expedition?"

"Angrond, the death of the dwarves."

"King of Hammer, Eight Peaks duel."

"Chaos is heading south, threatening all directions."

"My king's instruction, chivalry."

"Follow me to defend, the nations of mankind!"

"The evil is gone, and the debt is paid with blood."

"My king of Ryan, set off on an expedition."

"Loyal ministers follow him to the battlefield."

"They are going to the other side of the ocean."

"Returning with honor will benefit the Quartet."

The song drifted across the entire Arden Forest. It was already early winter, the sky was clear and there was no snow. The army marched towards the depths of the forest, trying to contact the Holy Grail Knight, Baron Claude.

However, after several hours of marching, the five gray knight recruits were the first to notice something strange: "The situation is wrong! The settlements deep in the forest are full of signs of corruption!"

"What?!" Bertrand immediately ordered the whole army to speed up their pace, and rushed to the settlement, where the baron castle of Baron Claude, the Knight of the Holy Grail, was located.

The army arrived late. Deep in the forest of Arden, the entire castle and an entire village next to it had been completely razed to the ground.

The body of Baron Claude, the Knight of the Holy Grail, was hung on a large chaotic eight-pointed star emblem at the gate of the castle, placed in a cross, and nailed to it with a Beastman's spear. His head had been chopped off, leaving only Body.

Bertrand and Rokossovsky were shocked, and quickly sent people to search, while the five Gray Knight recruits immediately began to purify the corruption.

After searching around, Beria told Bertrand a terrifying fact: "Marshals, apart from Baron Claude's body, we didn't find any corpses in the village or castle, only bloodstains and traces of battle."

"This shows that there are too many mouths that need to be filled." Bertrand said with a very ugly face, "Tal is on top!"

"It's it! It's it!!!" While Bertrand and the others were still discussing the situation, screams came from the wood elf ranger team, and some rangers, including Captain Dais, saw After a certain mark, they all showed expressions of extreme fear: "It's back!"

"The shadow cursed by Kunos and Isa has been resurrected again!"

"Disaster is about to befall Athel Loren again!"

"We must inform the Council of Eisley Woods immediately!"
