The demon lair incident in Wapu Province ended with a tragic victory for the coalition forces of the three major sects.
After the war, after counting, a total of 1 nest-level mother, five S-level demons, 281 A-level demons, and more than 1,000 B-level or lower demons were killed.
Even considering that most evil spirits are actually companions of the lair, once the mother body dies, the companions will also die.
This is still an amazing result that only occurs once in a century.
There was also a nest incident 15 years ago, and the size and strength of the mother that time were far less powerful than this one.
As a price, the Vamp Knights were almost destroyed.
812 Extraordinary knights died in the battle, and more than 2,000 retinues died in the battle. In addition, more than 100 night watchmen died, while 80 people each of the Flagellants and Soul Califiers died.
This result is just a hair away from annihilation of the group.
Victory is victory!
No matter how miserable the win is, it is still a win.
This is a major event worthy of the three major churches showing off.
For a time, the propaganda machines of the three major churches were at full capacity, announcing their efforts and results in protecting mortals. Under the orders of high-level officials, the knights' retinues treated a large number of corpses of dead demons harmlessly.
Toured various churches for display.
Clearly, the church has found good reason to expand its military presence.
After realizing that the crisis was close at hand, countless believers cried out and wanted to join the Order of the Guardian Knights, even if they were just a handyman as a knight's retinue.
After this series of measures, one cannot help but wonder whether the Orthodox Church had planned to do this all along.
In this incident, a shining name came into the sight of extraordinary people.
Mark Destiny!
The direct grandson of the famous old Holy Family [Destiny]!
Although someone signed a consulting agreement, the Destiny family cleverly ignored this and instead wrote about his bravery in bringing a sacred bomb to blow up the demon's lair.
As long as Mark doesn't sever himself from his family and doesn't change his surname, he will be the pride of the family. As for the trivial matter of making the goddess of light displeased, but being favored by the goddess of night... isn't this still the fault of his own family?
This is also a need for political propaganda.
In order to cover up the crotch-drawing of the Guardian Knights of the Church of Light, there must be a bright spot to attract the attention of believers.
Interestingly, Lady of the Night condones this, consciously or unconsciously.
After returning from that small village, Mark and the members of the purification team retreated to the Church of Light in Wapu City, the capital of Wapu Province, to rest.
The industrious Albert came over again and personally helped to check on Mark. After making sure that he was fine, he refused to leave and even brought a group of knights with him.
"Alas! The family also knows that what you are doing is a good thing. But Gerald and the others are a little different. They are temporary guardian knights, but in fact they are family knights of the Destiny family. No matter what the reason is, if loyalty is not absolute, it is disloyal.
According to customary rules, the Destiny family must expel knights who do not carry out the orders of the family master."
If no one can obey orders, it will be difficult to lead the team.
mark:"……"
Albert smiled as if he was seeing someone: "How about you take pity on them and accept them as your personal knights?"
After the battle, Gerald and the others were left with only five knights.
There were more than a dozen people kneeling in front of Mark.
Because a knight is never just one person, he also has followers and apprentices. This is a relationship of both prosperity and loss.
A knight's loyalty is absolute!
A knight who betrays his lord has no value in existence and will be despised by the entire knight class and even all orthodox churches. Basically, if he has gotten to this point, he will have no future unless he joins the evil sect.
This kind of shame will even harm future generations.
Logically speaking, Old Destiny's operation was correct.
Of course Mark knew that this was his old man testing him to see if he was really so cruel and wanted to cut off from his master's family.
But Gerald and the others were really innocent. They were moved by him and violated the family leader's orders. They refused to take him back without telling him, and even risked their lives to help him fight. In the end, the pot belongs to him, Mark.
Mark narrowed his eyes and stared at Albert, who felt a little scared and did not dare to look at him. Then he slowly spoke: "You are right. Gerald and the four of them should be expelled from the Destiny family...
…”
When Gerald and the others said this, their hearts tightened, and a sense of grievance suddenly welled up in their hearts. However, they did not despair. They refused to believe that this great hero who was willing to risk his life to save 5 million people was so ruthless and ruthless.
Righteous guy.
In fact, from the moment they agreed to Mark, they had a gambling mentality to some extent...
Fortunately, they made the right bet.
Sure enough, Mark's following words made them ecstatic.
"I am responsible for them being fired. If the four of you don't mind that I am just a Doctor Who, you are welcome to become my knights. But..." Mark changed the topic: "I can't support so many people. Everyone.
We hope that the Destiny family will make arrangements for our retinues and apprentices."
Mark, this is a typical example of taking the best of the best and not using things that are just for family use.
He was also betting that the old man would not do such a trick.
Lao De hoped that his rebellious grandson could re-establish a bond with his master's family. Mark established it, but not completely. It was this kind of vague connection that made Lao De quite uncomfortable.
Albert had estimated Mark's reaction before he came, but he didn't expect Mark to choose the path they thought was the least likely to be chosen.
No matter what, Mark didn't change his surname, and people accepted it, which meant that he tacitly allowed the old Germans to use his name to make a fuss.
This is progress no matter what.
Albert breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh! It's okay. Everyone knows that Gerald and the others are extremely loyal. They are doing this to implement the principle of knights protecting the weak. How could the Destiny family embarrass their followers and
Disciple? We are responsible for all pension matters this time."
After saying that, Albert gave Gerald a wink.
They were immediately overjoyed and took two steps forward. Gerrard was the leader and knelt down on one knee in front of Mark: "Carl Gerrard, see the Lord!"
Mark's left eyelid twitched wildly: "What I'm saying is, you should be my followers."
Gerald raised his head and said: "The master can treat us as his followers and treat us as he pleases. We will absolutely obey. This does not prevent us from treating you as the master."
Speaking in human terms: We each discuss our own affairs.
Mark's balls ached a little.
To be honest, when it comes to raising people, he really didn't have any capital before. In his grass-roots team, Conrad just took care of the food, and Helena brought her own property to join him.
When it comes to living expenses, he has already spent almost all of them, including the 1 million lite dollars he got from the Muse and the useless art coupons in this regard.
Fortunately, after blasting the demon's lair this time, the Church of the Dark Night awarded Mark 5 million lite dollars and 50,000 light and dark points coupons.
This gave Mark enough funds to support several knights.
Don’t underestimate this cost. Gerald is a Sequence 6 Great Knight of Light. His armor was broken in this battle, and only one big sword is still usable. The other four Sequence 7 knights are also equipped.
Total loss.
If you change the boss and arm such a few powerful knights, it will take a lot of blood.
Mark turned to look at Helena who was a little distracted: "Their equipment will be left to you. If you need any materials, just use points to get them from the Church of Light and Night."
"Ah! Oh...Okay." Helena responded hurriedly.
Alas! Ever since she said something about the snail, she didn't know what attitude and expression to use to face Mark.
Mark actually wanted to talk about this matter, but he didn't expect that the gift coming from his family was just the beginning of his busy work.
As soon as Albert left, Juan Nadal came over with Vivian.
After some useless pleasantries, the legitimate son of the Nadal family finally revealed his intention: "After the family elders voted and agreed, Vivian officially returned to the Nadal family and changed her name to Vivian* Nadal. Okay.
Now, I won’t hinder you young people from chatting.”
Juan walked away in a hurry.
Mark and Vivian were the only ones left in the huge room.
Mark looked at each other.
Vivian puffed up her chest as if to demonstrate: "Mark, I don't know what you think. Anyway, I am just a layman. It is my mother's long-cherished wish to return to the Nadal family. I will be happy if she is happy."
"Uh, it's okay, I'm happy for you too."
"Also, next time you go to blow up the lair, you can let me go."
"No, you can't learn that job." Mark refused instinctively.
Unexpectedly, Vivian rushed over and took his hand: "I don't know how, then you teach me! Yes, you saved me, but I don't want to live in your favor all my life."
A very strong reason!
To be honest, Mark had a slight crush on her. But combined with the fateful weaving incident, Mark realized that this girl was obsessed with him.
