Albert opened his eyes slightly and saw that he was in a cell.
The cell is very strong. In addition to the three steel walls, there is a solid iron fence. The iron bars of the fence are as thick as an arm. Powerful barriers are also cast on the four walls of the cell to prevent prisoners from using magic. No matter how powerful the magician is, he will never
There is no way to escape from here.
It would be a big deal to trap such a frail young tiger man in such a tight cell.
But Al knew very well that when he came to Rome with the power of [Solar Egg], he must have frightened the humans. [Solar Egg] can use fluid energy to fly at such high speeds, and the mere impact can cause such huge destructive power.
, even Albert himself did not expect this.
In his desperation, he showed excessively dangerous power to humans, and it was natural for him to be treated like this. Just being locked up was the best situation. If humans had evil thoughts, Al would have been killed by now.
He sighed, climbed up from the iron bed and glanced around.
In the narrow corridor outside the cell, there was only one knight waiting: Grand Duke Hall.
Wearing black armor and a gray cloak, Heavenly Knight Hall sat on a bench and waited quietly. He seemed to have not slept all night, but he was still full of energy and exuded a strong sense of oppression.
"Good morning." Hall said in a deep voice.
"Good morning...good morning." Albert promised in a low voice.
Albert had an encounter with Heavenly Knight Hall before, and he also learned about Hall's bravery from the stories told by Bediwell, but it was not until now that he realized the strength revealed by Hall.
That kind of arrogance.
At this moment, although Hall could not be said to be hostile to Albert, he could not be said to have come with goodwill. Hall saw the power hidden in Al, so he was on tight guard against the Khajiit boy.
Hall looked at the boy, who was about ten years old: "What an amazing recovery ability. You were so seriously injured last night and you recovered in just one sleep?"
Al checked his body. He was covered with bandages and his whole body was stained with blood. But he knew very well that his injuries had indeed healed.
The power of [Sun Egg]? The fluid energy stored in the body stimulates cell regeneration, and he does not need healing magic to heal the body*.
(*Note: Healing magic also uses photons to be converted into energy to stimulate cell regeneration. Al omits the step of converting photons into energy. His recovery ability is more efficient than ordinary healing magic.)
"...By the way, where is Deanna?" Al asked worriedly.
"That lady you brought? Don't worry. Although the blood loss has made her very weak, there are good therapists in Rome. She will survive." Hall said, "Instead of talking about her matters, it's better for us to talk about it."
Let’s talk about you, kid. When I saw you last time, you didn’t have these wings?”
Albert was stunned for a while, and his body subconsciously retreated to the wall.
He didn't know whether he should tell Grand Duke Hall about the [Sun Egg].
According to Bedivere, Hall is a good man and can be trusted. In fact, Al even entrusted his brother Robert to Hall. However, [Sun Egg], a powerful weapon left by ancient people,
The artifact is the only means passed down by the leopard people to compete with humans. Is it really okay to tell Hall such an important secret?
Al may be able to trust Hall on small things, but he still cannot trust humans on big things. He still maintains a skeptical attitude towards humans. After all, he is an orc, a force hostile to humans, and he cannot be completely innocent.
The reservation trusts humans.
"Don't want to say it?" Hall sighed. He also knew that it would not be easy to get words from Albert.
"Feel sorry......"
"Forget it." Hall immediately gave up the cross-examination. He didn't want to push too hard and drive the tiger boy to a dead end. There are many ways to trick him. Hall can take his time and try to talk to Albert.
To get along with Te, first gain Al's trust.
"By the way, your name is...?"
"Albert. My name is Albert Pav." Al replied. He had already given up the family name Roble and regarded himself as a member of the Turkic tribe (Elephant tribe), so he registered
Pav's family name.
Hall frowned slightly, but didn't say anything.
Seeing that Hall seemed unhappy, Albert thought that Hall was doubting his identity, so he added: "The person I brought is called Deanna Hackett. She is the elder of the Grik tribe."
The priest...is also someone who advocates peaceful coexistence with you humans."
Heavenly Knight Hall's brows furrowed even deeper.
The daughter of Chief Hackett.
And it was Hall who killed the Hackett clan leader.
At that time, they were in the midst of a battle to exchange hostages and snatch the key fragments of the World Wall. The situation was quite urgent. Even an experienced knight like Hall accidentally struck too hard and inadvertently used his sword skill [Death].
[Declaration]. Anyone who falls victim to this trick will definitely die, and there is no room for salvation. And he also sent people to sneak into the Dark Territory afterwards to confirm the death of Patriarch Hackett.
Therefore, Hall always felt very guilty about this incident.
Now, Kama (destiny), like a debt collector, has sent Hackett's daughter.
"Understood." Hall replied with a heavy heart, "The safety of that lady's life is guaranteed by me, the celestial knight Hall. I will do what I say."
He didn't expect that Hall would suddenly become so serious. Albert was a little surprised: "Okay, okay, please."
"Kador." Hall called.
"Yes, Your Majesty the Grand Duke." Cador came from the left passage of the dungeon and saluted.
"While I'm away, this child will be left to your protection." Hall turned to the tiger boy and said, "Your name is Al, right?... Please stay here honestly."
Here, don't do any tricks until your matter is resolved.
We are relatively easy to talk to, but the Roman general Cernas you met before... he will definitely try his best to kill you. If you mess around, I may not be able to save your life."
"I know...I know." Al swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
He could vaguely feel the murderous intention hidden in Hall's words. He could even feel that Hall also had a vague murderous intention towards him. The reason why Hall didn't take action was because of their Pantoraken chivalry; but Sirnas just
A soldier, a cold-blooded soldier who does not care about chivalry and will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.
