In the calm square, after Alina's treatment, Adil's injuries were finally temporarily contained. Although they did not get better, at least they no longer worsened.
He lay quietly on the ground, his sword loosened, his eyes closed, and he looked like he was asleep.
In the distance, the slight sound of horse hooves slowly sounded. It came from a distance and reached here, where they heard it accurately.
Listening to this voice, Alina stood there with a cold face, just waiting quietly, and never took back the red sword in her hand.
Not long after, in the distance, many knights came from a distance.
These knights were all wearing red leather armor, and there were three to four hundred of them in number. Among them, the lowest strength ones were as strong as trainee knights. They were among the most elite warriors anywhere.
At the front of these knights, a middle-aged man with a dark face and wearing black armor rode over quickly, with an expression of fear and anxiety on his face.
"Princess Alina!!"
When he saw Alina's figure in the distance, the man breathed a sigh of relief, quickly dismounted and knelt down on one knee: "I hope you're okay!"
"Dara, give me a reason." Looking at the middle-aged man in front of her, Alina's face was cold: "I clearly told you that you would bring the Scarlet Knights to come for support."
"As a result, not only did you arrive so late, you didn't even bring the entire Scarlet Knights with you."
As she spoke, her tone became colder and her eyes became more and more evil.
"I'm sorry." Listening to Alina's words, a middle-aged man named Dara broke out in cold sweat and quickly explained: "I had already led people to set off, but the wild beasts outside the wilderness suddenly rioted and forcibly attacked the camp.
, which greatly delayed the time.”
"Brutal beasts rioting?" After hearing this explanation, Alina was stunned for a moment, and then she stopped caring about the matter in front of her and said quickly: "How is the situation over there?"
"Because it was discovered in time, it has been suppressed now. Count Adira is leading people to guard there, so this time I am the only one leading people to look for the princess." Looking at Alina, Dara replied respectfully, not daring to raise any eyebrows.
beginning.
"It's okay." Alina breathed a sigh of relief, then raised her head, looked at Dara in front of her, and spoke again: "I will argue with you about your matter after I go back."
"As for now, send someone to find that old guy Oris."
A cold light flashed in her eyes: "Also, take the injured knight back for treatment."
"Yes!" After listening to Elina's instructions, Dara breathed a sigh of relief, stood up quickly, and led people towards the surviving knights around him.
After experiencing the previous series of battles, there were not many surviving knights around at this time, and most of them fell into a coma and fell quietly to the ground, looking no different from corpses.
If the vitality of the knights was not much stronger than that of ordinary people, none of these people would be able to survive.
However, despite this, there were still not many surviving knights around. Among the forty or fifty people Alina brought with her, there were only seven or eight who survived.
Soon, Dara walked up to Adil and looked at the "unconscious" Adier in front of him. He was stunned for a moment.
For Adil, Alina's new knight, he is naturally not a stranger in these few months.
Although the two parties had little contact due to different duties, Adil's gentle personality and outstanding appearance still left a lot of impression and favor in his heart.
But at this moment, Adil was lying quietly on the cold floor, his body was very weak, his hair was gray, as if he had exhausted his last bit of strength.
In an instant, Dara thought of the reason, and couldn't help but show a little respect in her eyes when looking at Adil.
He carefully lifted Adil up and carried him into Yiliang's comfortable carriage. Then he picked up the sword and led the knight to search in the distance.
The results of this search made Alina very disappointed.
The manor in front of me was already empty, with only a few ordinary servants left inside.
As for Count Oris and his relatives, they seemed to have completely disappeared at this time, and no trace could be found in front of them.
There was no gain. This result was certainly disappointing, but in the process, Anum, who had been hidden in the corner by Adil, was also discovered and quickly returned to Alina.
After seeing Adier, whose face was pale and whose vitality was completely burning, the middle-aged knight, who had always been taciturn, couldn't help but be moved. After being silent for a long time, he spoke again.
He told Alina truthfully about the scene he had seen before, including how Adier had rejected Count Oris' solicitation and how he had rescued him from the other party.
Listening to these things silently, and looking at Adil's unconscious figure in the distance, Alina couldn't help but let out a sigh, and then led the people and slowly left the manor in front of her.
As if to vent her anger, before leaving, Alina had someone set a fire here, setting the manor in front of her on fire.
The beautiful manor was ignited before our eyes, and its historic buildings were reduced to fuel for the flames, all turned into crimson flames, burning there.
And in the burning flames, a figure slowly appeared in it.
He looked old and was wearing a black robe. He was staring at Alina in the distance, his eyes always calm.
"The image of fate...has been changed..."
Standing on the sea of fire, looking at Alina in the distance, he murmured to himself, with strong vicissitudes in his words, as if he had experienced the baptism of thousands of years.
Far away, on the other side.
At the moment when the old man appeared in the sea of fire, in the carriage, Adil suddenly opened his eyes.
"That feeling just now..."
Struggling to get up, he didn't care to continue pretending to be unconscious. Under the influence of some inexplicable induction, he looked directly in a certain direction in the distance.
In a certain direction in the distance, a vague feeling is coming, accompanied by a throbbing feeling in the soul.
Adil is no stranger to this feeling.
He had experienced this feeling when he awakened his ability to travel through time and went to the first world. It was extremely real and impressive.
"What is it that makes my soul throb..."
He looked in the distance, feeling an inexplicable throbbing deep in his soul, and couldn't help but murmur to himself, feeling a little hesitant in his heart.
Deep in his soul, a desire was filling his heart, urging him to walk in the far direction to find something.
But in this case, it will be difficult to explain to Alina, and there are many possibilities that will make them suspicious.
Once he reaches that point, all the performances he has performed before will be equivalent to being wasted, and his hard work has been in vain.
After standing there and hesitating for a while, Adier made a decision.
"The coordinates of this world are right there. Advanced breathing techniques are not unique to Alina."
He looked into the distance and no longer hesitated in his heart: "But the things that can make my soul long for it are not so easy to come across. If you miss it this time, it may be difficult to come across it again next time!"
Silently looking into the distance, sensing the surrounding aura, Adil thought to himself.
However, just when he was about to stop pretending and rush directly towards the induction direction, the aura in the distance suddenly disappeared, as clean as if it had never appeared before, and he could no longer feel anything.
This change made Adier stunned, and he had not yet fully reacted.
tread···
A sound of footsteps came from outside, instantly attracting Adil's attention.
Outside the carriage, Alina was dressed in a simple and elegant red robe, with a long sword on her waist, walking towards the carriage.
"Are you awake?"
Seeing Adier standing in the carriage, Alina was a little surprised, with a smile on her face: "Why are you standing here?"
"I just woke up and my feet are a little numb, so I want to stand for a while." Looking at Alina who walked into the carriage, Adil suppressed his complicated mood before, and with a smile on his face, he replied weakly.
.
"Your injuries are still serious. It's best to sit down now." Alina nodded. She didn't have much doubt about Adil's words, but said with some concern: "Sit down."
"Okay." Adil nodded lightly, and then sat down carefully with Alina's support.
After doing this, Alina did not get out of the carriage, but sat quietly in the carriage and looked at Adil in front of her.
The emotions in his eyes were very complex, including regret and sadness, pain and anger.
Seeing the tragic situation of Adil in front of her, various emotions rose in her heart, making her emotions at this time very complicated.
"You should be aware of your situation." After a long time, Alina spoke again, breaking the silence in the carriage.
Listening to Alina's words, Adil nodded slightly, his face looking very calm: "I am a doctor, and I know very well about my own situation."
"The injuries on your body are very serious." Alina said somewhat complicatedly: "It has burned your vitality. If nothing happens, your life span will not exceed fifty years."
"I understand." Adil smiled: "Fifty years is not bad. In this world, whether you live long or short does not mean much. You are going to die after all."
After listening to Adil's words, Alina did not speak, but just looked at his appearance silently, speechless for a long time.
There was silence for a while, until after a while, Alina spoke again: "Actually, there is another way."
"Although your vitality is burned, if you can be promoted to the Knight of Glory, you can break the existing limits and let your body glow with new life, thereby extending your lifespan."
She looked at Adil and said seriously: "Although this is not easy, I have confidence in you."
This is naturally a lie.
The difficulty of being promoted from Sky Knight to Radiant Knight is far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
In the Malan Empire, there are at least hundreds of Sky Knights, but the number of Radiant Knights, even in the heyday of the Malan Knights in history, was only less than ten.
One can imagine the difficulty involved, and it is definitely not something that the so-called knight geniuses can overcome.
In Alina's heart, if Adil had not burned his own vitality, there might still be some hope, but now, the hope of success is very slim.
It's just that it's naturally impossible to say this in front of Adil, so on the surface, Alina still looks full of confidence in Adil.
While speaking, she also picked up a black wooden box and placed it right in front of Adil.
"This is a breathing method. It is a gift from me."
Looking at Adier in front of her, she said: "You have condensed the wings of fighting spirit. At this point, the original breathing method has little effect on you, and you must replace it with a more advanced breathing method."
She looked at Adil and took out a black book from the wooden box in front of her: "This is the follow-up part of the previous breathing method. Now I leave it to you."
"I understand." After listening to her words, Adil nodded, with a calm expression on his face.
Seeing his appearance, Alina sighed in her heart, then patted his shoulder gently and walked out.
"Lilith, tell me, what are the chances of him being promoted to a Shining Knight?"
Stepping out of the carriage and feeling Adil's breath in the carriage behind her, Alina couldn't help but ask.
"The chance is less than 10%." Lilith's voice rang in her mind: "He has too little vitality left. It is difficult to rest until he reaches the peak of Sky Knight, let alone be promoted to Glory."
"However, even so, he is still a titled knight."
Looking at Adier in front of her, she said: "You have condensed the wings of fighting spirit. At this point, the original breathing method has little effect on you, and you must replace it with a more advanced breathing method."
She looked at Adil and took out a black book from the wooden box in front of her: "This is the follow-up part of the previous breathing method. Now I leave it to you."
"I understand." After listening to her words, Adil nodded, with a calm expression on his face.
Seeing his appearance, Alina sighed in her heart, then patted his shoulder gently and walked out.
"Lilith, tell me, what are the chances of him being promoted to a Shining Knight?"
