"The cavalry squadron, led by Knight Will, will follow the cavalry regiment of the Eagle Legion, and the infantry, led by me, will leave tomorrow afternoon." Baron Caddozzi had just issued this order.
"Leaving so soon?" The squadron captains present were obviously a bit surprised, tens of thousands of people had just arrived in Peters City after a long journey, and surprisingly, they were about to set off again after only two days of restoration, and a few of the veterans had already guessed that this time, returning to the country wasn't that simple.
Seemingly sensing the dreariness in the tent, Baron Kedozi laughed "This time we're just acting as a chaperone, so don't worry about any danger, I promise!"
When the Baron said this, the crowd relaxed. The meeting was then dissolved after discussing the matter of tomorrow's departure.
"Will, Locke you two stay!" Baron Caddozzi said as he stayed behind.
When everyone else had pretty much left, Baron Caddozz
A group of cavalrymen threaded their way through the jungle trails."Brother Rock, how far is the journey." A hairy kid asked."Should be soon." Locke battled two heads and wasn't sure.This was the squadron of Locke and the others on their way back home, the cavalry squadron belonging to the town of Mine Hill, to be precise.Two days ago, finally arriving at their battalion in the Caddozi domain, each squadron was assigned by the Baron to be led by a squadron commander and returned home.This cavalcade, the members of which were lads out of the mining towns, numbered more than a dozen.In addition to the cavalry, behind them there was a squadron of infantry close to a hundred men had Joschak, Karl, and Hans leading them.With his horse in tow, Locke and the other cavalrymen pulled away from the infantry behind them and couldn't wait to meet their loved ones face to face."I should have known to bring along one who knew the journey." L
Old Billy put on his formal clothes, which he hadn't worn in close to five years, early in the morning and asked his partner to put on his bow tie."Why do you have to be so formal?" The old man muttered, but his hands were still sharp."Of course it has to be official!" Old Billy's eyes widened, "This time our sons and daughters of Mine Town are back, and I, the mayor of the town, must not represent the whole town and greet them?"It had been too long since the bowtie had been worn, and old Billy remembered that the last time he had worn it was when he had gone to a dinner party at the Baron's Castle a few years ago before he had been dressed so formally.Fighting back the discomfort in his body, old Billy straightened up and headed out the door, his home was in the center of town and he now needed to go to the mouth of town to join the whole town and wait for the men of Mine Town who had returned from enlisting in the army.Early in the morning, befor
Taking advantage of the night, the Locke family returned to Maple Leaf Village with the Hans family.Originally, a few distant relatives in town were going to stay with Locke and the others for the night, but because there were so many people, Locke politely declined.In addition to the two families, Kane came back with them.More than ten people walking toward Maple Leaf Village in the middle of the night was not boring, and there was a lot of talking and laughing along the way, and Locke and his family had a lot to talk about.On the contrary, it was Kane who didn't talk much as if he had something on his mind, surprising Locke and Hans who knew his character well.It was already late at night when he returned to Maple Leaf Village, with only a disk of full moon and a bit of starlight dotting the night sky.The two families said their goodbyes and returned to their homes.Hans had a large family and a large house with many rooms, and Kane
"Brother Locke, are we going to have any missions back in town tomorrow?" The soldier named Malik from the few people following each other asked.He was also from Maple Leaf Village, but unfortunately Locke didn't remember much about him and should have joined the army later."There should be." Locke simply said so, without answering specifically."Will it go on to garrison the southern border?" Hank picked up, the new recruit who had only joined the army for a few months, with the gruesome memories of the siege of Ordis City still fresh in his mind, was not wanting to fight again."No." Locke said with certainty, Baron Caddozzi had explained in general terms why their battalion had gone to the southern border to accompany them earlier, and Locke was confident that their battalion wouldn't wade into the waters."That's good." Hank grinned, he'd had a rush of enthusiasm when he first joined the army, and then flinched when he was on the verge of being hi
Getting up early and doing a set of punches, Locke goes next door and knocks on the door to tell Hans and the others to get going."Ah Locke, what can I do for you?" The one who opened the door was Aunt Mary, who asked warmly."We're going to meet up in town for a bit today, I'll call Hans and the others." Locke rubbed his nose, but he had grown up balking at the spunky older woman."Okay, I'll go get them!" Aunt Mary opened the door to let Locke in and turned back to the inner room to call Hans and the others.Hans's yard is obviously more than twice as big as Rock's, because Hans's family has four brothers, Hans ranked second, he has an older brother above him, has become a family, and even the children have, a large family of close to ten people live in a yard, not big enough to fit so many people.It is also the fact that there is a lot of labor in the family that makes it so easy to build a big house.It wasn't long before Hans, Kane, and Han
The whistling cavalry had rushed back to the mining town before night came.The town of Mines was very quiet at night, with little noise except for the whispers that came from the homes of certain people in the town.The return of the cavalry sort of brought ripples to the quiet mining town.Old Billy, the town's mayor, had uneasily grabbed Carl since Locke and the others had left and asked him to accompany him to guard the town's entrance.Chewing on the supper his mother-in-law had just brought over, old Billy climbed into conversation with Carl while occasionally looking sideways at the main road outside the town.Carl knew the scruples in old Billy's heart, smiled and comforted, "Don't worry, just a few thieves."Although Carl gave old Billy a piece of mind, but people can't stop thinking about things when they get old, and old Billy hasn't suffered from these thieves over the years.As soon as the squadron of cavalry led by Locke return
In the yard Tia kept counting on old Rock, who stood on the other side with his head down, "How can you still take bad potatoes and rice potatoes that have been left over for I don't know how many days to the horses?""It's just a piece of livestock, how was I to know it was so delicate?" Old Locke wryly argued."You think it's a donkey?" Tia, seeing that old Rock had the audacity to talk back, thrust out her voice, louder.Locke twitched his mouth breathlessly on the side, those livestock in the village, such as cows and pigs, did eat anything, not to mention bad food, even rotten grass roots and dry bark, they chewed vigorously.But that's a domesticated beast. Warhorses are different.As far as Locke knew, his horse was usually taken care of by a specialized breeder hired by the baron, and the food he ate was a mix of fine wheat and soy beans, which was simply better than what the servants in the army ate.Why don't they say that horses are mor
At the end of the month, Locke was finally free to go and warm up to the Shashi girls for a few days.All four women from Shiloh had been living a less than accustomed life during their time in the Caddozi Dominion, the bottom line being that there was no one to communicate with but each other.The accent, clearly distinct from Faustian, made the people of that small town under the Baron's rule wary of them.No wonder, not to mention them, that people from the capital of Faustian could not eat well in the countryside of the southern province of Del.The most pugnacious and xenophobic folk in the country are in the province of Del.Because of the many mountains and dense forests here, poor mountains produce unruly people, speaking of the civilians in Del Province.Locke's arrival excited a few women.Especially Christine, this little girl did not have the posture of a little princess of a big family at all, the moment she saw Locke she pounce
Princeton was big, and exactly how big it was was evident by the fact that it housed nearly four million inhabitants in a single city, equal to the total population of two Faustian kingdoms.So the incident of the convergence of high-ranking knights that happened in the northeast city had little or no effect on the people of the entire imperial capital.The Royal Academy's campus was relatively cold today, one was that the vacation hadn't ended yet and the students were still busy with their trial quests, and the other was that call-up order issued by the Knight's Hall.The Imperial Royal Academy had a total of six branches, and the Knight branch accounted for four of them, and the Magician branch only had two, so in the school, most of them were still knights in the majority.If one were to ask what place in Princeton had the most high-ranking squires, it would probably have to be the Imperial Royal Academy, in addition to the branch of the Knight's Hall.
Sifi was a first class knight of the Sia family, the Sia family and the royal family were all together, so it made sense to stay, and as for why Marquis Sandru chose to stay as well, it was mostly because he was old and didn't want to get involved in the Otherworldly War.You know, even with the care of the second level Earth Knight Roma Knight, the Otherworldly War is still very treacherous, and every Knight who goes out to battle will sign a will to the Knight's Hall as a custodian before he leaves his home position.The conversation between King Faustian and the Knight of Roma lasted until late at night.The Rom Knights, with their great strength and bodies, were fine with just not eating or drinking for a month, but King Faustian couldn't even afford the lack of sleep.At Princess Kent's urging, King Faustian moved to his bedroom to rest.This woman who was beautiful enough to be the late King of Faustian, ever since she married into Faustian, she d
The meeting on the 436th floor of the Holy Tower had already ended, and after the ten or so third level Grand Magicians exchanged and communicated their thoughts, the black-robed elder announced that the meeting was adjourned.The chirping raven from the last meeting did not show up this time, and its owner, the faceless wizard named Joss, did not show up this time either."When another few decades pass, old friends will come back again ah!" A Third Grade Grand Magician sighed as he walked out."Yeah, and several more third level magicians were sent a year ago, even that guy from Undisguised Mask went there!" A magician who went with him interjected."I think it's to save Michelle, who I'm told seems to have been struck by a centaur royalty.""With that guy around, Michelle's safe return isn't a problem!"These two magicians' words were mostly words of care for Michelle, and it seemed that this magician was well-liked in the Holy Tower.As f
Unconsciously, it was already the fourth year that Locke came to the O'Moore Empire, on the day of the New Year, the house was very lively, not only did a large number of classmates and friends from the academy come, but there were also a number of Faustian nobles who came to the door to visit.After all this time, everyone knows the fact that Angelina is Princess Faustian.The others were fine, Chris and Bob, the two knights who had been on many missions with them, spoke to Locke with envy and jealousy.To most people, a princess of a small country was not much worse than the daughter of a count's family in the Empire.In addition to the door-to-door congratulations, Locke and the boys themselves have made this New Year, quite a red-hot one.For Locke, the arrival of the New Year simply means that he has grown another year, 24 years old Locke is already old enough. 20 years old Angelina has also reached the age when she should be talking about marriage
The matter of Angelina's promotion was completed in the magician branch of the Royal Academy of Princeton, and all Locke knew was just a date, and the specifics were all handled by that master teacher.The favorable inventory of a full-fledged magician was not something that Locke, who had just been promoted to a high-ranked squire, could imagine.In short, without a hint of danger or any accidents, when Angelina reappeared in front of Locke, she was already a middle-ranked magic apprentice holding a white magic staff.In addition to the white magic staff, there is also a golden magician robe, these are all gifted to Angelina by that master ancestor, not to mention other things, just the head of the magic staff, that is the size of a fist of magic crystals, so that Locke was amazed to the point of no return."Would it be too flashy for you to use a crystal core of this level right now?" Locke pulled Angelina's sleeve and asked quietly, now on the campus of Pr
The Knights Templar's branch temple in Princeton is located on Constantine Avenue in the northeast quadrant of town.It's a place Rock rarely ventures into, so it's no wonder he didn't even notice the Knight's Templar sign before.He was here today to report for duty and, incidentally, to collect his benefits for the month.The Knight's Templar was really a big family, and Rock hadn't even done anything yet to receive a free copy of the monthly routine that was worth a lot of money, and it was evident why those knights broke their heads to enter the Knight's Templar as well.Entertaining Locke, who was his only acquaintance Sith, "Come here." The Sith led Locke, in this great hall, left and right.This sub-temple, a stronghold of the Knight Templar specifically set up in Princeton, with Princeton as the center point, radiating in all directions, in addition to the knights of the imperial capital, the members of the Knight Templar of the surrounding seve
Princeton Royal Academy's mission hall, Locke, who had been recuperating for half a month long, once again appeared here.He's here today to turn in his assignment."Knight Locke, please follow me!" The staff member in charge of entertaining Locke brought Locke to a certain room on the second floor of the quest hall.Locke had only come up to the second floor of the quest hall once, and that was back when he had dipped into Joaquin's light and came here to pick the trial quest to destroy the ghosts.Nowadays, Locke was already a high-ranking attendant, his own strength and the treatment he should be subjected to were greatly enhanced, and this kind of second-floor private room with unique privileges could only be enjoyed by a high-ranking attendant like him.In the quest hall, although there were a lot of knights who came in and out to receive quests and pay for completions, there were only a handful of people who had reached the same level as Locke, a
A week had passed since Locke had been promoted to become a high-ranking squire.The damage to the organism caused by the breakthrough had mostly healed over the course of the week.Not one to be idle, Locke intended to get out of bed and walk the day after he sobered up, but was held down by Angelina and the others, who wouldn't let him move.Rock, who will be turning 24 soon in the New Year, surprisingly enjoyed a rare moment of snuggling in his mother's arms as a child.Angelina, Grace, Shashi, Leah took turns, there is no time when Locke stayed alone, even Christine, the little girl, also forked over in front of Locke's bed, urging him to drink the medicine, it really makes Locke laugh and cry.The news of Locke's breakthrough to high ranked squire, spread quickly in his circle of friends, Joaquin and Billie and other women have come to visit him these days, as well as Henry, Raphael and others, high ranked squire Locke, among them all, when it is a
Locke inside the cultivation room was covered in white gas, the Eagle Fighting Qi had been running wildly over and over again, but there was still no sound of a breakthrough coming from the cocoon.On the table in front of him, the things that were originally set out were gone, and there were a few wooden boxes and test tubes scattered randomly on the floor, vaguely visible as boxes containing items such as Blood Essence and Crimson Potion.At this moment, three hours had passed since Locke entered the cultivation room.An invisible shackle imprisoned Locke's entire body, no matter how fierce the Eagle Fighting Qi in his body was, it just couldn't rush through, just like a moat.Blood marks had slowly appeared around his body, and his veins bulged, which was caused by the pressure in his blood being too great to withstand the wild and chaotic Eagle Fighting Qi.It's also possible that the side effects of the langoliers were responsible for the fact that
