"Lord Xavier, I have bad news and worse news. Which one are you going to hear first?" As soon as they arrived in the inner city of Nori, Norbert, who had been waiting anxiously, came up to him.
"Stupid people always like to tell jokes colder than the cold winter sea at inappropriate times."
A faint voice came, and Norbert frowned and made a get-out gesture towards Candelon, who was leaning against the broken city wall behind him.
"Candron Avard, I have met His Highness Xavier." Candelon performed a ceremony towards Xavier that was somewhat similar to the knightly ceremony of Sentinoa.
At that moment, Arthur's knight's sword flashed, and nearly ten figures of men in black appeared on the surrounding roofs. And those men in black, like Candelon, were doing the same thing towards Xavier.
Kneeling down and beating the chest.
"Canderon, what are you doing?" Arthur's silver sword was instantly unsheathed, killing intent surged wildly in Arthur's body, and all the men in black on the roof felt the shrouding chill.
Didn't you expect that Arthur's sword power has become so strong? Xavier was extremely surprised. In his memory, Arthur seemed to be the ordinary knight from the beginning.
But now, facing these nearly ten assassins in black, Arthur's sword-drawing intention alone was enough to move everyone. The silver light reflected a chilling chill on the blade of the sword. This sword named "Silver"
The "dazzling" knight's sword in Arthur's hands is like the silver dragon Cloyard in "Covenant"!
"Tsk, don't you answer?" Arthur frowned, and he moved closer to Xavier in a defensive posture.
These men in black were not strong, and even Arthur couldn't feel the murderous intent in them. Although as an assassin, he should hide his murderous intent, but the alarm bell in Arthur's heart never sounded.
These people didn't give themselves any sense of danger. Could it be that they were hiding it too well? If that's the case, where did Candelon find these top assassins, and what was his purpose?
"Arthur, they must be performing a strange etiquette on me..."
"Your Highness, I think that is a prelude to an attack. At this time, they can just take out the long swords or fire guns at their waists."
"Arthur, the fire gun cannot be pinned to the back. Except for the Catalan V-style long barrel, there is no fire gun that can be used to pull out the fire gun from the waist while hammering the chest." Xavier held his forehead and said seriously.
.
"Your Highness, these men in black are obviously assassins..."
"Knight Arthur, these are the first batch of special guards I have trained in the past few days. These are the climbing skills of the Canopy City, and probably less than ten people have mastered them." Candelon also felt chilled in his heart.
He quickly straightened up and explained to Arthur.
"Oh? So fast!" Xavier looked at these special guards on the roof of the inner city with interest. The inner city has now begun to be rebuilt, but it is still difficult to climb up to the roof so quickly.
"You have also seen it, and I believe Knight Arthur has also felt it. They do not have much strength, and at this stage they are only very agile and mobile. But if the extreme cold storm is still a month away, I believe I can help
His Highness has trained a special guard group of about fifteen people."
Candelon paused: "As for the name of this guard group, please ask Your Majesty Xavier to come and pick it up." After saying that, he glanced at Norbert who was left aside, and Norbert was careful.
He made various impolite gestures towards Candelombe.
Shall I take it?
!
Are you from the City of Canopy... Xavier pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Helheim, let's call him the Ninth Special Assassin Group of Nori Helheim."
Xavier touched his chin. He vaguely remembered that this was the undead kingdom of the nine kingdoms derived from the world tree that reached the sky, Yggdrasil. Using this name to represent this special batch of assassins was very suitable for them.
career.
"..." Candelon opened his mouth and blinked awkwardly.
"..." Norbert turned his head silently, ignoring Candelon's look of help.
"..." Arthur twitched the corner of his mouth, and the sword in his hand trembled slightly.
"What's wrong?" Xavier looked at everyone, a little confused.
"Your Highness, I have a feeling that I have known the Santinoa text for twenty years, but I still feel confused when I connect them." Arthur scratched his head and said cautiously.
"..." Well, this should be the first time this term appears in this world, and for Xavier, who has a "stomatophilia" when it comes to naming, every time he chooses a name, he racks his brains.
"The Assassins of Hel, when they become famous in the mainland in the future, people will mention the names of the Assassins of Nori Hel with admiration and fear." Xavier's voice deepened, as if he was speaking to Candelon, but more
It's like speaking to the young people on the roof.
"This is the first regiment of Noli, so in the future, each person will add a sausage and an egg every day, and the annual salary will be one-third higher than that of the longbow soldiers, reaching 60 gold dragons."
"As for Candelon, Norway and Lebanon have little economics in the early stages of development, but there is no problem in guaranteeing you 100 gold dragons for a year." Xavier turned his head and looked at Candelon.
"Your Highness Xavier, the Hel Assassins will always be with you, and we will exist in your shadow. The Rose Family will eventually return in flames!" Candelon beat his chest and shouted excitedly.
"The Rose Family will eventually return in flames!"
The young men in black also stood up. You must know that they are all young men from various villages affiliated with Noli. Most of them came to the main city to join the guard army just to make a living.
However, wars have been going on these days, and there is no news of support from Danfeng Boluo. The Holmulande rebels of native Nori blood are bombarding them all the way. These new recruits cannot receive food reserves at all, so they can only rely on
Survive by begging secretly.
These days, Candelon's 20 hours of extremely difficult training every day has made a large number of people leave angrily. These less than ten people are all extremely talented and stayed with the eggs Candelon paid for out of his own pocket.
These young people are lucky to have minced meat porridge once a week, but now they have eggs and sausages every day!
"Of course, Captain Candelon will be the one you must obey. He can seize your sausages or impose other severe punishments."
Xavier nodded slightly towards Candelon, and the men in black also looked at Candelon with fear.
"His Royal Highness's grace of knowing and meeting him will never be forgotten by Candelon..."
"Wait a minute, Candelon, aren't you a member of the Canopy City Guards?" Just when Candelon was crying with gratitude, Arthur suddenly frowned and interrupted him.
"Knight Arthur, every member of the Guards of Canopy City is comparable to the gold medal assassin of any country on this continent." Candelon looked at Arthur and hid the look in his eyes.
"Really..." Arthur showed a sneer, and the silver knight sword in his hand swayed slightly, scattering silver light flakes like moonlight.
"Silver light... sword surround!" Arthur growled, with him as the center, the silver light flowed like a tide, rushing to all sides. Xavier stood behind him, guarded by the majestic and magnificent silver knight sword
To this Earl, to whom he had sworn an oath.
"Hiss..." Norbert and his guards hurriedly retreated. With such terrifying murderous intent and sharp sword intent, they felt that once the silver sword circle expanded, they would be cut just by standing in it!
"Hull Legion, wind formation!" Candelon narrowed his eyes, feeling the terror of the killing in the ever-expanding sword circle.
He...really wanted to kill himself! Candelon took a few deep breaths. He could already feel the cold wind brought by the silver water flowing across his face, and a slight sting radiated from the rough skin.
into the physical senses.
After hearing Candelon's order, their legs were trembling with fear. The Hull Assassins trembled and formed the so-called wind formation, but they were just recruits after all. There were already three or four who couldn't stand the suppressed sword intent and jumped from the roof.
Fall down.
They fell into the sword circle, and in the blink of an eye they were scratched and bruised by the ubiquitous silver sword intent. The large pieces of black clothes were turned into broken pieces in the blink of an eye.
"Wind style? It's just a formation when escaping." Arthur snorted coldly. With his sharp eyes, he had already seen through this so-called wind formation. After all, Alex was a master tactician.
"I admit that you are one of the top three most talented knights I have ever seen. But don't bully others too much, kid." Candelon's face slowly darkened, and a trace of anger burned in his eyes.
"I remember, aren't assassins the best at backstabbing? It just so happens that Yin Yao's weakness is the small area on his back. Come on, gold medal assassin!"
Arthur's voice was particularly loud in the silver sword wind. He looked at Candelon with some contempt, who had been forced to the foot of the city wall. The perimeter of the silver sword was still expanding. Although it had exceeded the stable range that Arthur had used,
But it’s not his limit yet!
His limit was running low, but he still had enough to gain access to the city wall. Candelon could escape through the gate of the inner city wall, but that would silently signal Candelon's defeat.
"Go through the siege of the Silver Sword, the gold medal assassin..." Arthur suddenly choked. In his field of vision, Candelon, who was supposed to be approaching the city wall, had disappeared, just like a black shadow in that moment!
"Oops..." Arthur's heart tightened, and the sense of crisis made his hair stand on end.
"Silver Sword Circle, close it!" Arthur turned the hilt of the sword, and the huge silver sword wind shrank suddenly, but it was too late, as an almost imperceptible breeze surged behind him.
Arthur instantly drew his sword and leaned forward. He could even feel the dagger grazing the top of his head, pressing his hair and moving forward!
Cold sweat poured out of Arthur's forehead. He gritted his teeth, held the sword in his backhand and slashed behind him. The silver tide mixed with the sword's intention struck behind him for the second time.
"Bang!" The swords collided and rubbed sparks, and Arthur slashed towards the neck of the person behind him with almost a blind slash.
"You lose." A faint voice came after receiving a series of slashes from Arthur.
"Huh, are you sure?" Arthur turned around, feeling dazed as soon as he opened his eyes.
The one he slashed was none other than Xavier, and the one who helped Xavier receive the blow was Candelon, who was covered in wounds and was in a state of embarrassment.
He forgot that the one he should protect most was Xavier, and that the dignity of a personal knight was not in how many enemies he killed, but in being able to protect his master and leave safely no matter what the situation!
