Chapter 35 Late Night
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Locke's childhood was still relatively happy. He had a sister who loved him deeply, a pair of honest parents. His favorite thing was fishing in a ditch in the hot summer when his parents and sister were farming in the fields. Although it was just a small fish, only a thumb thick and dark fish, Locke was still happy about it, because this was the rare meat in their family.
However, the beautiful days never came back. When Locke was 14 years old, a large-scale drought descended on this territory of Faustine Kingdom which was not vast. Three of the four provinces were caught in the crisis of food and water. Locke's family, located at Mapleville, Mineton, Cadozzi Barony, Del Duchy, were in a desperate situation.
It had not rained for a full month and a half. It was already the middle of June. In previous years, there would be a month before the harvest season. Usually, at this time, as the activity in the fields decreased, her parents should take her to town to

At this time, in a luxurious courtyard in the palace of Flor City, the capital, King, who was now the ninth Prince of Faustine, was angrily smashing precious porcelain from the east."Bastard! Where is my Angelina? How did you protect her? If anything happens to Angelina, your whole family will be buried with her!" King pointed at the man in black who was lying on the ground.The expression of the man in black who was crawling on the ground did not change, but his trembling body at this time showed that he was not as calm as his appearance. "Your Majesty, Princess insists on looking for the Elder Prince who is fighting at the front line. I dare not stop him." The man in black lowered his head and said."What do you mean you don't dare to stop her? You are... you are..." King was so furious that he pointed at the man in black and became speechless."Your Majesty, since Princess insists on going to find the Elder Prince, just let her
Warpath of the Knight Chapter 37 Preparations Before the Festival
In the palace, the flame curtain had long dissipated, but King was still like a statue, quietly standing there. "Ahem... Prince is still so young and vigorous." An Elder said to the right side of King. He was the Wizard who had just supported the flame curtain cloth. In this country, only someone of his status and stage could speak so casually beside King."Sigh, I owe him and her." King sighed, "Sorry to trouble you." After saying this, he cupped his fists towards Elder."It doesn't matter. I am old now and can't go into battle to kill enemies. I am also very happy to serve you, King." Old Wizard said."Yes, send Master back to the tower." King said to the attendants on his left and right."Alright." A servant walked out and supported Old Wizard to leave. In Faustine, every advanced magic apprentice, after serving the kingdom for a certain year, the kingdom would invest money to build a Magic Tower for this Wizard. Magic Tower was
Warpath of the Knight Chapter 38 Festival
At night, the whole Mineton town was silent, except the square in the center of the town. There was a bonfire that flamed brightly. Almost all the villagers in Mineton came here to participate in the annual beer festival."Today, we gather here to celebrate our lives and wish for a better life next year!" Mayor Old Billy began his routine speech. In his opinion, this was the most important part of the year."Although some of our children or some of your husbands may still be fighting on the front lines, all of us in the Mineton will pray for them!" As a mayor who had been in town for decades, Old Billy spoke very fluently and easily stirred up the emotions of the townspeople. At least now, everyone in the square was reminded of the longing for their loved ones by him."This year, Mineton has overcome many difficulties. We have already..." Old Billy was still giving his speech, but not many people listened to him because he had already talked ab
Warpath of the Knight Chapter 39 The Proud Old Billy
"Hey, Elder Locke, why are you in such a hurry to go home?" From far away, a loud voice was heard. The one who spoke was a small steward from the caravan. "Come here, drink with me today!" The small steward rode his horse over.Elder Locke recognized him. His name was Bruce. He was a small steward who followed a merchant caravan. He was different from the steward who was in charge of Baron's merchant caravan. There were many such small stewards in the merchant caravan, and they did all sorts of chores. Calling him a steward was to curry favor with him. This kind of small stewards did not have much real power, but if they did second-hand transactions, the stewards in the merchant caravan would not interfere too much. Because, since they could be a small steward in the caravan, everyone had one or two backers, either the cousin of the captain or the nephew of the merchant. The stewards only had to take care of their own business and rarely paid attention to anything else.
Warpath of the Knight Chapter 40 Marquis Mammon
Baron Cadozzi was like a wise man. He quietly rode on his warhorse and commanded his troops to advance. In the distance, Locke watched as the baron steadily rode his horse. He was extremely envious. When would he be able to be like the baron? His Blue was really hard to train. Not only was it slow, but also disobedient. If not for the fact that Locke was strong and his killing energy wasn't small, he really wouldn't have been able to suppress this stupid horse.It was noon now, but the baron did not give the order to rest. He would not even give the order for the whole day, because there was only one day left before they reached the city. Locke received news that Baron Cadozzi and Baron Kashmir were preparing to march successively for a day. They wanted to arrive at the city before the night.The troops continued to move forward. This was indeed exhausting for ordinary soldiers. Even Lieutenants had to raise their spirits and keep an eye on their own subord
Warpath of the Knight Chapter 41 Exorbitant Support
No wonder Marquis Mammon was so angry. There would be no harm without comparison. Legio Aquilae once only had two infantry corps and one cavalry corps, with a total of 15,000 soldiers who were all elites among elites. As one of the legions protecting the Kingdom of Faustine, 15,000 soldiers were more than enough in peacetime. However, during wartime, 15,000 soldiers were far from enough, not to mention the continuous loss of soldiers due to battles. So Marquis Mammon had to listen to the king's orders and allow the private armies of nobles, mercenaries, and adventurers to be incorporated into the legion.After four years of war, Legio Aquilae had undergone repeated restructuring and fought countless battles. Now, only Legio I, Legio IV, and a part of Legio II could be said to represent the true Legio Aquilae, whereas only Legio I was the trump card. Legio IV was mostly made up of new recruits. Its combat power was slightly lower than Legio II formed by the nobles, merce
Warpath of the Knight Chapter 42 Military Order
The two marquises in the tent were still arguing. However, they had such a tacit understanding that neither of the two marquises mentioned the Third Corps, which was a mixture of small-time nobles' private armies and adventurers, and mercenaries. Their only function was to rush up during the war and pick up weapons and money.The final argument between the two marquises was that Legio I would send one battalion, Legio II would send three battalions, and the cavalry would send one battalion respectively, and they chose not to mobilize Legio IV, which the two of them had decided to use as the main force to attack the city. Legio IV was newly established, and it needed to make more experience in war zones. Of course, it was up to the two marquises to decide the specific choice of the battalions to be dispatched. They had sent the messenger back to Legio Leones headquarters to report to Prince.Marquis Sandru made a big concession this time, thinking of it as a
Warpath of the Knight Chapter 43 Meeting the Marquis
When Baron Cadozzi arrived at Legio II's headquarters in the hinterlands of Als Mountain Range with his personal guards, Marquis Sandru happened to be there as well. As a unit consisting of the private armies of the great nobles, the relationship between the forces in Legio II was complicated. Marquis Sandru, as one of Faustine's four marquises, was naturally the leader of the great nobles. In fact, among Faustine's four marquises, only Marquis Sandru was the most popular among all the great nobles.Whether it was the hot-tempered Marquis Mammon, the straightforward Marquis Wood, or Marquis Sia who was close to the royal family, none of them were good at socializing in the aristocratic circle. In fact, it was mostly because of the complicated social network between the nobles. The three marquises were in a high position and did not dare to take the initiative to support the small- and medium-sized nobles. To be able to reach the rank of Marquis, even if they were rash m

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

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
Warpath of the Knight Chapter 220 Recognizing the Road
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."

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
