Aldridge and his loyal men, along with some of the same people who had offended Immorton, were sent to a small village to investigate traces of pagans, who were said to be making sacrifices there.
Aldridge sensed something was wrong, but he could not resist the order of Archbishop Immorton unless he gave up his honor and left the Knights Templar.
This was obviously a conspiracy, and Immorton did not tell Aldridge the truth about the place. After Aldridge's troops arrived, they were ambushed by the enemy, and the elite troops of the Linglie Church were actually hidden there.
Aldridge fought bravely, but the knights around him fell one by one, and Aldridge was finally knocked down by the enemy leader himself.
The archbishop who led the Linglie Church's troops admired Aldridge's combat skills and will, so he brought Aldridge back to the base camp and conducted an evil experiment with Aldridge, who died frequently. They infused the power of death with him.
into Aldridge's body.
The strong emotions brought about by the betrayal allowed Aldridge to survive the experiment. He became the first living death knight. The power of death saved him, but it also changed him. His heartbeat became slower and his skin gradually faded.
She was pale, and her originally golden hair became pale and dull.
Aldridge went through rigorous training at the headquarters of Linglie Church and learned to control the power of death in his body. He learned quickly. Even though the operation of the power of death may be a little obscure because of him, he still did it easily.
Defeated his instructor, the strongest death knight in the Linglie Church.
Aldridge's heart was full of revenge, which was the only reason why he struggled with his broken body. After being betrayed, he watched his friends and subordinates die tragically beside him, and he became this undead and unwilling person. He made up his mind.
Determined to take revenge against the Linglie Church and the corrupt Immorton.
Strong emotions can change people, and Aldridge is the best example. He is no longer as upright as before. In order to get revenge, he is willing to become cunning and evil.
He quickly gained the trust of the Pope of the Linglie Church and became the most powerful death lord in the Enslow Empire. He fought on the battlefield and defeated the Griffin Empire supported by the Sun Church and captured a large amount of land for Enslow.
.
But Aldridge had already planned it. After all, the Linglie Church was also part of his revenge plan. He quickly and unknowingly gathered his own powerful power, and successfully launched a rebellion to annihilate the Linglie Church.
And successfully usurped Enslow's throne.
Aldridge became the most terrifying person on the continent, and disasters abounded wherever he went, but these were not what Aldridge wanted. He quickly gathered his strength to raid the branch of the Church of the Sun, which he once belonged to, in the hinterland of the Griffin Empire.
department, and found Immorton inside.
Aldridge asked his men to surround the branch and prevent anyone from escaping. Then he picked up his weapon, took off his helmet and walked into the branch.
At this time, more than 30 Templars were already waiting inside, and Immorton was hiding behind them. When they saw Aldridge's face under his helmet, they finally couldn't help but show expressions of surprise, and Imogen was even more unbearable.
He couldn't help but scream in fear.
He recognized Aldridge as his colleague who died in the battle ten years ago. At that time, Immorton even held a funeral and memorial service for him and other fallen soldiers under false pretenses.
But no matter what the truth was at the time, they were already enemies at this time. The Templars rushed towards Aldridge amidst Immorton's horrified roar, but in the end, Aldridge succeeded in cutting off Imogen's head.
, chopped his body into pieces and impaled him on the highest point of the church.
Aldridge disappeared after killing Immorton. No one knew where he went. The Enslow Empire, which lost its leader, was brought back to a disadvantage by the Griffin Empire in the chaos. The mainland once again entered into two huge empires that lasted for a long time.
In the midst of the battle of interest.
To summon Aldridge, Ronan must go through a dream trial just like he did when he recruited Kress. The system reward only erases the huge cost and other harsh conditions required to summon the legendary hero. The trial still needs to be carried out.
of.
Ronan did not start the trial immediately, but chose to finish drawing the artifact first. To be honest, he was disappointed to draw this legendary hero Ronan. After all, Aldridge was too dark and unsuitable to carry with him.
"Extract the artifact!"
The roulette wheel spun again, and this time Ronan was not disappointed. The roulette wheel slowly disappeared and condensed into the shape of a one-handed sword.
"Unawakening Nightmare" is the name of this one-handed sword. It has a gorgeous guard and hilt, a dark golden sword body with lines. There are some jagged waves where the sword body connects to the guard, and there is a very big hole in the middle of the sword body.
It has a long blood groove, and the sword body is overall longer and thicker than an ordinary one-handed sword. As a divine weapon, in addition to being as sharp as cutting iron as if it were mud, it naturally has some other abilities.
As its name suggests, the wounds of anyone scratched by this weapon will be difficult to heal, and will cause multiple times of pain. Once you can't bear the pain and pass out, you will never wake up again.
The method of cursing the sword also appeared in Ronan's mind. After all, the problem of accidental injury must be taken into consideration.
Resisting the idea of taking it out for comparison, Ronan finally put the Nightmare Book into his backpack. After all, he had not forgotten that Caroline was still with him.
After leaving Caroline and asking her to prepare some snacks and tea for herself, Ronan was ready to enter the dream trial. The dream trial did not consume too much time in reality, but after thinking about it, Ronan still agreed.
Opened Caroline.
Entering the trial space, the scene was exactly the same as last time, with countless dream bubbles flashing in the dark space.
The trial bubble exploded around Ronan, wrapping Ronan inside.
The scene gradually changed, and Ronan found himself outside a palace decorated with gorgeous decorations and beautiful reliefs. He was surrounded by knights in pitch-black armor.
At this time, Ronan still had no control over his body, and Ronan knew that the trial had not officially started yet.
Judging from the scene, it should be when Aldridge finally defeated the Templars' defense alone and killed Immorton.
This is still a bit difficult for Ronan. Aldridge may have defeated those Templar Knights easily, and Ronan also used Aldridge's body.
But Ronan is not Aldridge after all. Ronan has no idea about the effects of his equipment or what kind of abilities he has.
The body is also unfamiliar and needs to be adapted. It is still very challenging to face more than thirty well-trained, well-equipped and unknown Templar Knights in this state.
Ronan was already prepared to fail in his first challenge.
