Chapter 99 Knights' Trial Field (Updated)
"Okay, everyone is here. If there is nothing to deal with, we are going to enter the secret realm.
"Is everything okay?" Han Xing asked.
Everyone was silent for a moment.
Shen Yun asked at this time: "Brother Xing, after we enter the secret realm, the territory is unguarded, will there be any problems?"
Han Xing shook his head and said: "Don't worry about this. Your territory will overlap with mine. I will modify the defense instructions of the psychic shield to encircle your territory as well."
"Then set up the attack program for the siege crossbow launcher. As long as someone attacks the defensive shield, a direct counterattack will be launched."
"Then you can put out all the puppets from the last ranking list, and there shouldn't be any problems."
After listening, everyone nodded.
The power of Han Xing's siege crossbow launcher has been proven. Even if it is faced with a siege by multiple people, it can easily deal with it and destroy it.
Coupled with so many gold and silver armor puppets, it can be said to be a piece of iron.
At this time, Su Xiaoyang also cautiously added: "If there is danger, Xiaoqian will also help fight..."
"It...although it looks a little scary, it is still very obedient."
Everyone looked at the other level 10 leader-level dryad she planted.
The plant-type monster is still at the leader level. In terms of actual combat ability, it is even more powerful than Han Xing's golden-armored puppet.
Han Xing nodded, "Since there is no problem, let's go in directly."
Then, Han Xing invited Su Xiaoyang to form a team.
This five-person team has taken initial shape.
As for Han Xing, it was natural for him to become the team leader.
He walked to the whirlpool of Yunduo Secret Realm, and at this time, the system prompt appeared.
[Do you want to enter the secret realm of two-star clouds, the ‘Knight Trial Field’? 】
"yes."
The vortex slowly begins to rotate, indicating that the portal has been opened.
Han Xing was the first to step in, followed by Cheng Jianyong and Shen Yun, and finally Zhang Lianmeng and Su Xiaoyang.
The screen flashed and everyone appeared in a huge square.
The area of this square is very large, roughly estimated to be at least tens of thousands of square meters, and the entire ground is paved with blue-gray stone bricks.
In the center of the square, there is a huge statue about 20 meters high and with a base diameter of more than five meters.
It was a human knight holding a shield high in his left hand and a holy hammer in his right hand.
Simple movements reveal his extraordinary temperament.
Under his crotch, an extraordinary horse stands with its head raised, which further highlights the heroic appearance of this knight.
But at this time, the statue had been overturned from the middle and broken into two pieces.
The ground was covered with thick dust, and the knights no longer had their former glory.
At this moment, the system prompt appears.
[The horse neighs and the flag flutters. This is the trial ground of the former human empire. The knight king Grutal often judges those guilty here. 】
[The ceremony will be watched by three thousand of the most elite knights in the empire, and the guilty will be beheaded here. 】
[Until that day, the Knight Trial Court ushered in a different group of sinners. Today, they will publicly try the former empire’s knight commander, Remus, and his three hundred members of the Canghuan Knights. 】
[As the right-hand man of the Knight King, Remus made great contributions to the rise of the empire, but recently, Grutal wanted to sentence Remus to death in the name of betraying his faith. 】
…
Everyone was a little confused for a while.
Cheng Jianyong said: "What the hell? Why is this two-star cloud secret realm different from the one we fought before?"
Han Xing nodded, "It's different. There was actually a background introduction when I came up."
Before everyone could get used to it, they suddenly heard a burst of loud shouting.
"!!"
The five people's expressions suddenly changed. Thousands of people suddenly appeared in the originally empty venue.
They chanted one person's name in unison,
"Grutar!"
"Grutar!"
Everyone looked at an empty spot in the auditorium, where there was a huge throne carved from a single piece of stone.
At this time, Isamu Narumi said nonchalantly from the side: "Oh my god, does this thing have cutscenes?"
"By the way, is this Luerta so awesome? He even wants to kill his right-hand man?"
Shen Yun said speechlessly at the side: "It's Grutal, please shut up, Yongyou, and let's check the situation first."
At this time, surrounded by thousands of knights, a man wearing white armor and a resolute face sat on the throne.
He held his face sideways, looked down with sharp eyes, and said loudly: "Remus, do you know your guilt?"
Below, the shackled Canghuan Knights were forced to kneel on the ground. They were stripped of their armor that symbolized glory and lost their trustworthy mounts.
This group of knights who used to be so dazzling in the past have lost their brilliance now, showing all their misery and desolation.
Seeing no one answered below, Grutal asked again: "Remus, can you admit that you have betrayed the kingdom's regulations and done something disloyal to the God of Light?"
On the field, more than 3,000 knights couldn't help but look sideways.
They also seemed unable to believe that Lord Remus, the knight commander who was most loyal to the kingdom and the most heroic in battle, would betray His Majesty the Knight King and the kingdom.
However, among this group of lonely knights, a man with a resolute face who looked to be in his thirties or forties raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, the King of Knights, Remus, I am guilty..."
He seemed to have given up his last struggle and lowered his head humbly.
Hearing Remus's confession, the other knights looked at each other in bewilderment.
On the throne, Grutar nodded gently,
"Since you know your crime, then follow the law and deprive Remus of his rights as the Knight Commander and execute him immediately."
Grutar's verdict was equivalent to sentencing Remus to death.
There was no trace of fear in Remus' expression, but he asked calmly: "Your Majesty, the Knight King, can we end the evil spirit elimination activities after this?"
Grutar frowned and said with a little anger: "Remus, you are still so stubborn. I have told you that those people are not our people, but a group of pagans who have surrendered to the evil god!"
At this time, Remus below asked with a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, you said they are pagans who betrayed their faith, but they are just a group of children!"
"I saw with my own eyes that the knights' iron hooves trampled their villages, and the group of children were covered in blood, looking for the bodies of their relatives among the corpses on the ground."
"But even so, the eyes of the group of children were still so clear. They asked me, will the God of Light take away the souls of their relatives?"
"How can these ignorant children be pagans? How can the God of Light be afraid of a group of children?"
Remus' words were loud and clear, and the soul-piercing questioning made everyone stunned.
"Shut up!" Grutar's voice shook the entire trial venue.
"A new generation of evil gods is born among humans. If they are allowed to grow up, they will cause unpredictable disasters. This is a warning from the God of Light!"
"Remus, are you doubting the oracle from the God of Light?"
Below, Remus was silent.
He did not dare to question the God of Light or Grutar in public.
Grutal's expression remained unchanged, and he continued, "Remus, don't be stubborn anymore."
"Since you fought for the empire in the past and made many contributions, do you have any last words before the execution?"
Remus looked around and asked with a glimmer of hope, "Your Majesty, letting those children run away was a decision I made alone. It has nothing to do with the Canghuan Knights. Can Your Majesty only execute me and let the other knights go?"
Grutal thought for a moment and shook his head.
He said firmly, "No."
Remus' heart was instantly desperate. He looked at Grutal in disbelief and asked, "Your Majesty, why?"
"They are innocent. They still want to contribute to the kingdom again and offer their faith to the God of Light!"
However, no matter how he pleaded, Grutal remained indifferent.
At this time, Grutal, sitting high on the throne, waved his hand and said, "Execute."
After the words fell, huge crossbows appeared at the edge of the trial field.
When the crossbows were about to be shot,
Remus raised his head, as if he had made some kind of decision.
A strong light suddenly burst out from him.
This light rushed straight into the sky, even making everyone unable to open their eyes.
The next moment, the chains on Remus broke directly, along with the shackles on more than 300 other humans.
He shouted loudly: "Brothers of the Canghuan Knights, you all have a bright future, and you should not take the blame for me. I will block this place, and I will take all the blame!"
However, the more than 300 knights looked at each other, and after the initial confusion, they realized what happened.
However, none of the more than 300 knights retreated, but stood behind Remus.
Just like every time they went out to fight, Remus was the first to rush to the front.
This time, the Canghuan Knights still stood firmly behind Remus, and no one retreated.
They shouted in unison: "Swear to be loyal to the Knight Commander until death, and advance and retreat with the Knight Commander!"
The sudden change made thousands of knights in the entire trial field fall into a state of confusion.
Including Han Xing and others who were watching the cutscenes.
Cheng Jianyong was surprised: "Damn, are we going to fight?"
"By the way, will we be involved?"
Cheng Jianyong's worries are not unreasonable.
At this time.
On the throne, Grutar was not surprised. He ordered in an orderly manner: "Seal the exit of the trial field, prepare the crossbowmen, and shoot all criminals who want to escape."
"Knights, suppress Remus."
On the field, thousands of knights received Grutar's orders after experiencing the initial chaos and immediately restored their formation.
They drew their swords in unison!
Clang! Clang!
The long swords were unsheathed, and the most elite knights in the kingdom pressed towards Remus with unparalleled power.
