The morning sun woke up the city of Newk, and the originally noisy streets were now even more crowded with people. But today no one dared to talk loudly, instead they all chose to talk in whispers.
Boom and Rikka were also mixed in the crowd at this time. Rikka looked very curious and couldn't help but look ahead. But Boom's face became colder and colder.
I saw a group of Sisai cavalry walking into the city gate without looking back, while a dozen prisoners in front of them were tied together with iron shackles.
Click! Click! The heavy iron ball rubbed against the ground, making bursts of noise, as if the God of Death, who was always hiding in the void, was gritting his teeth and holding back his joy.
Any prisoner who fails to keep up with the marching speed will be stabbed into the calf or arm with a thin sword by the guards on the side, using this method as an alternative to verbal abuse.
The fate of the Wailers was even more pitiful. Those body parts and meat still hanging on the chains were all unlucky ghosts who failed to enter the city gate.
"Didn't you say that the Principality of Xisai is very open? Why does it act like this?" Boom turned to look at the hotel attendant and asked in a low voice.
"Openness is always the privilege of the strong. As for little guys like you and me, it's the same everywhere." The attendant shook his head and replied helplessly.
Boom stopped talking immediately. While warning Rikka to keep his mouth shut, he also enjoyed his first performance after entering the Principality of Cisse.
Christo, the lord of Newk City and the Iron Tree Knight. One of the four closest confidants of Grand Duke Grylls of Cisse, he guards Newk City all year round and rivals the royal city of Ogu City.
As a glorious knight, he is only one step away from the realm of divine blessing, and he is very similar to Achilles, the owner of the Lion Bar in the ancient city.
His life experience is well known to everyone in the Principality of Xisai, and he is also one of the few ruthless characters who is admired by everyone and no one dares to offend him at will.
This is not to say that no one can match his strength, but that this guy's fighting method is too crazy, so crazy that no one is willing to trade his life for his life.
But his fighting style was not born from birth, but was caused by a certain tragedy. But this is his biggest taboo, and no one will mention it in front of him...
More than thirty years ago, a dark elf girl walked into Newk City under the scorching afternoon sun. As the person in charge of escorting goods, although she was curious about everything about human beings, she still chose to act as planned.
The long-handled staff engraved with patterns was slung behind her back, and the dagger on her waist flashed with cold light. The dark elf girl directed the caravan without noticing the stupid boy standing across the street.
This man is the young Christo. As a mid-level knight, he has incomparable confidence. This confidence comes from his strength, but also from the sacred mission of adhering to the knight's code.
The breeze sent the dark elf girl's body fragrance into his nose, and at the same time turned the boy's hot gaze into a focus, instantly burning the other person's robe.
The two stood across the street. The boy smiled sheepishly, while the girl blushed and turned around to fiddle with the goods that had been sorted.
The accompanying dark elves shook their heads when they saw this, thinking that the other party was just a mid-level knight, but he dared to try to get involved with his own genius magician.
But from that day on, Christo would stand at the same spot across the street every day, waiting for the goddess in his heart. And the dark elf girl also appeared on time, rain or shine,
A silent date began quietly, and the love between the two was like nightshade in the warm moon, which quickly bore fruit. The purple-black outer skin exuded fragrance, and the sweet juice continued to spread along the cracks in the road. p>
Three years later, the two held a wedding in Newk City. Although the Dark Elves were extremely opposed to this, they chose to endure it in the end.
At this time, young Christo had become a high-ranking knight, and Archduke Cisse also named him the Lord of Newk City.
Compared with the number of high-level fighting spirit professionals in other principalities, the Principality of Xisai appears to be too weak. This is partly because the Principality of Xisai emphasizes magicians, but more importantly, it is due to the suppression from the royal city.
Christo and his wife fell in love deeply, and even more passionately. Two years passed in the blink of an eye, and his wife became pregnant, and her husband became increasingly reluctant to leave her side.
However, this earthly relationship is like the hibiscus flowers all over the mountains and plains, destined to be a fruitless effort.
On a sunny afternoon, Christo walked with his wife on the Golden Halberd Plain. Although it was a routine patrol, there was no sense of crisis.
However, a group of people met Anthony, the blessed knight who had the same idea. Ridicule and abuse flowed from both camps until they stood face to face at the border of the principality.
Seeing that the other party despised him so much, the young Christo immediately proposed a duel. However, only tens of seconds passed before he was turned into a bloody man by fighting spirit.
Seeing this, the dark elf wife drew out her battle staff. But genius does not mean power, not to mention that she is still pregnant.
Anthony, who was very nervous, knew nothing about this. He easily pierced the opponent's magic defense barrier and threw the dark elf woman into the sky.
Under the setting sun, Anthony led the imperial cavalry back to the ancient city, while Christo ran towards Newk City with his wife in his arms.
Time passed by minute by second, and countless blood-stained straps and cotton balls swayed in front of my eyes. The human-shaped flesh ball lay quietly in the wooden box, and the bedding was wet with grief-stricken tears.
The dark elf girl slowly raised her hand, and when it touched Christo's chest, she let out bursts of faint light. Half an hour later, Christo hugged his dead wife, and roared into the sky. p>
From that day on, his fighting spirit turned dark green, and his combat skills became as powerful as the Divine Blessing Knight overnight. But the once approachable Lord of Newk City disappeared, and was replaced by the current bloodthirsty tyrant.<
/p>
The number of Sisai cavalry in the city wall has tripled in two years, and the spring bolts of the "Wild Ass Crossbow" have been ringing frequently. As for the number of nobles, it has decreased by a quarter.
All dissatisfaction and resistance were wiped away by it. Christo often wandered on the border of Sisai, often quietly dazing alone under the sunset.
The thin sword danced in the air, and the dark green fighting spirit turned into reality. Anyone who dared to approach was turned into the nutrients of the iron tree, but the branches never bore fruit.
Before her death, her wife injected the power of the dark elves into Christo's body, so that his appearance has not changed since that day, and he has even become more handsome.
However, after the daughter of a certain nymphomaniac marquis was beheaded by him, these things about him became known to the High Court. However, instead of blaming him, Grand Duke Grylls of Cisse named him the "Knight of the Iron Tree" and guarded New York for the rest of his life.
Kecheng.
The sound of the iron shackles rubbing against the ground sounded again, and people's memories stopped instantly. Boom's face looked extremely ugly now, wondering how he could be so unlucky to meet such a crazy city lord.
But Rikka beside her had tears in her eyes. She was very emotional and chose to ignore the cruel behavior of the other party. She kept recalling this extremely poignant love in her mind.
Under the orange-red sunset, Newk City once again resumed its bustle. The back of the city lord Christo had long gone, and Boom also took Rikka back to the room.
