    "Why aren't you dead? This guy deserves to be eaten by wild dogs!"

    The female knight named Tahitian grinded her teeth slightly and cursed in her heart. Unfortunately, no matter how vicious the curse was, her smiling face still swayed slightly a few feet away.  ¡Ñ

    Time has advanced four hourglasses, and a group of knights rushed to their new residence. This is a small farm located on the outskirts of Illyria. It belongs to a third-class earl who works in the city. On the surface, it is only a few  Ten farmers and a few servants managed the place, but a small fortress was opened in an unknown place. A walled barn was a small tower, and the farmhouse below it was built with bluestone.  There is even a small conference hall and several warehouses, plus two underground floors that can accommodate hundreds of people.

    Now, in one of the separated rooms, several knights were sitting and watching an interrogation.  The person being interrogated was naturally the young man with long gray hair.

    It¡¯s just that this guy still looks carefree. He is sitting on the chair in the center with a very relaxed posture, with that damn smile, as if he is not worried about his situation at all.  Although her eyes were half-open and half-closed, the female knight always felt that he was secretly looking at her. Even the magic armor on her body couldn't defend against that kind of substantial gaze, as if there were a swarm of ants crawling all over her body.  Crawling away, it was disturbingly itchy.

    How on earth did this guy deceive the teacher?

    At that moment at noon, as long as the four knight swords clashed, he would die even if he had five lives. It was a pity that the four knights had superb swordsmanship.  He had enough energy to draw his sword, so he stopped in time when the old knight shouted.  It's a pity that the control of the sword is admirable - although superb swordsmanship is a must-have ability for the Jinjinhua Knights, the female knight named Tahiti at this moment really wishes that the swordsmanship of those knights is a little worse.  Just open the neck of this annoying guy with one sword and kill him.

    However, reality is never as good as what people think.

    At that critical moment, the old knight spoke up to stop the radical action of the four Jin Jinhua knights to silence them, and gave a sufficient reason - as a knight, you should not kill innocent people indiscriminately. If this person is really a spy, then find out how he did it.  Knowing the purpose and route of his group, and appearing next to the four of them 'just right' is far more important than killing a spy.  And if he was just an unlucky guy who happened to have everything happen to him.  Then there is no reason to kill him.  So in the end, they brought this guy here and handed him over to a mage who specialized in interrogation, was good at enchantment, and a priest who could detect lies.

    "Just let you live a little longer As long as I am sure that you are lying, I will personally give you an unforgettable lesson. Then we will see how long you can maintain that idiotic smile!"

    The female knight thought so at the time, but now that the time has come, she found that this matter was not at all what she imagined.  On the contrary, it¡¯s quite tricky¡ª¡ª

    "What's your name?" asked one of the knights in charge of the interrogation.

    "Edward."

    "Edward? Haha You happen to be named Vincent, right?"

    Although the voice of the answer was soft, the name made everyone's expressions freeze for a moment, and the space was strangely silent for a while, but the silence was immediately broken by laughter.  Even the female knight who wanted to tear this vulgar scoundrel to pieces couldn't help but sneer.

    "Of course not, my surname is Snowden." The young man showed some confusion: "What are the benefits of having a surname of Vincent?"

    "Benefits? There are many benefits. You actually don't even know about the monster master of Tuminis?"

    "I do know that there are many masters in Tuminis? But there seems to be no such one in my impression."

    "Stupid guy, even the crossbows you stole have his name engraved on them, right?"

    "Wait. There are two mistakes here. First of all. After the owner dies, it becomes ownerless. I picked it up. In addition, the name engraved on it is Burgundy, which is a city. I have heard of this.  .¡±

    "Burgundy is the city of the army! Also, there are no ownerless things on the battlefield. Even the belongings of the dead soldiers are regarded as relics or the trophies of the victor. This is the sacred code of the empire.  Rules! Stealing on the battlefield is especially bad!¡±

    "Was that a war just now? Wasn't it a black-and-white war? And, ah, speaking of it, the armor worn by Baroness Tahitian seemed to be made by Burgundy, right? He also called it 'without magic'  Magic Armor', he seems quite proud of it!"

    "Which of your eyes has seen how proud I am!"

    The man tilted his head slightly in confusion and stared at the female knight, which finally made her unable to bear it anymore and shouted coldly:??¡ªIt took only a few words to start asking, but the topic was completely diverted by that rogue guy without even realizing it, and even got involved in his own body!  The feeling of being fooled made anger rise in her heart again: "Don't try to get through with your nonsense Lemon! You spy, tell me honestly who sent you here! What do you want to know when you approach us?  !What do you want to do again!¡±

    "Don't be ridiculous, Miss Baroness, I am a good person, not a spy, just an ordinary passerby who comes to Illyria to make a living!"

    "A passerby? Will a passerby quietly approach a dozen knights without being noticed by anyone?"

    "You didn't notice that I led the horse to you? No matter how powerful I am, I can't let the horse be silent, right?"

    Tahitian gritted her teeth and turned her gaze away, then her angry expression froze on her face - the mage and priest responsible for detection and verification nodded slightly to her at the same time, indicating that what this guy just said was not a lie!

    In other words, he is just a poor unlucky guy who got involved in this matter?

    If it were normal times, the female knight might question the results of this detection But now there are both divine and arcane methods gathered here. Even if this person really has any ability, it is impossible to deceive the magic network and divine power at the same time.  Otherwise, why would he need to be a spy?  What's more, even Tahiti, whose perception of the magic network is not qualified, can see it.  His affinity for the magic network is almost zero, even if he is given a magic item.  He may not even be able to use it, let alone anything else!

    "When this Lord Knight said he could let me become a knight. In fact, I refused. Because, if you can't let me do it, I can do it right away. First, I always have to think about it, because I don't want to  What's the point of living like an unlucky soldier who died suddenly on the battlefield? They say knights are actually cannon fodder But later these knights did prove that they are capable, so  Naturally, I couldn't let go of the opportunity. You see, I came to Illyria just to earn a living and become the squire of a rich no. A promising knight. In fact, it would not be bad. If I were a  Sir, if you have a title, you don't need me to step forward to fight, and you can also learn some sword skills and so on. If the knight is promoted, the attendant is more or less a butler or something like that. A dragon-slaying knight, his attendant is also quite great, isn't it?  ?By the way, what exactly are you planning to do?"

    "We have some secret operations. We can't tell you for the time being"

    "Oh, it's a secret. It's better not to tell it. People like me can easily cause problems if they know too much. It shouldn't be about subverting the dynasty, right? Haha, of course it's impossible"

    "Although it's not the case, it's almost the same. Don't ask any more questions"

    "Of course, of course, Illyria's current defense is very strong. There is the Knights of the Imperial Elector. I heard that they can summon thunder"

    "What's so great. It's just some"

    The interrogation that followed was bound to be lackluster The man's vivid but extremely philistine answer made almost all the knights frown, but it also greatly increased the credibility.  Everyone can see that this guy has nothing and knows nothing, and there is actually no point in pestering him.

    The female knight Mo sighed, nodded to the teacher, stood up and left the room.  But when he turned to the stairs leading to the ground, he stopped and leaned against the wall nearby.  Cover your cheeks with your hands.

    The iron gloves brought a slight chill, but the heat on the cheeks felt like fire.

    Why are you so excited?

    That guy seemed to be a real nameless scoundrel, with no deceit and no secrets, so his anger was particularly ridiculous - he killed him with one sword if he was a spy. It didn't matter if he wasn't a spy, but what on earth was he doing just now?  Not only did he yell, but he actually took over the interrogation questions, and the questions he asked were completely irrelevant

    The knights here are all strangers. This kind of behavioreven if there is no problem, others will inevitably guess what the problem is.

    That hateful bastard must find an opportunity to kill him!

    "Huh? Who are you going to kill?"

    She cursed a few vicious words in her heart, and her turbulent mood had just calmed down a bit, but the whispered questions were like sharp knives piercing her heart. She jumped up suddenly and pulled out her sword with a clang!  But then I saw clearly that the person who asked the question was standing far away¡ª¡ª

    "At least a dozen feet, which is the distance of one step, and then you can pierce the man's heart with the sword blade, watch the gushing blood take him to death, or slit his throat?"  Even if he dies, he will no longer be able to say those annoying words?

      But this was all she could think about, because the man was accompanied by two of Tahitian's knight companions, so she could only grit her teeth angrily, sheath her sword: "Youyou, what are you looking at?"  ! And you two, why did you bring this guy out?"

    ¡°I¡¯ve finished asking questions, and I have no more questions, so naturally I want to come out?¡±

    The two knights stared blankly at the angry but blushing face of the female knight. She had an unexpectedly charming appearance that they had never seen before in their memory, which made them stunned. Then some 'guy' responded with a smile: "They and I  Living in a room, right next to where you and the teacher live, the teacher asked us to stay there"

    "Shut up!" The female knight couldn't bear it anymore and almost drew her sword again: "Teacher doesn't have students like you!"

    "You can't go back on your promise easily, right?"

    "you!"

    Fortunately, the room was not far away, so the female knight avoided getting angry again and again.

    The room for the knights is on the ground, but it is obviously not exquisite. There are four beds in one room. The beds are covered with simple woven hay. It can be seen that they are newly replaced and exude the fragrance of straw. In the late summer weather,  It's enough.  But it was still too simple for the knights. The two knights frowned from the moment they entered the room.  On the other hand, the guy who called himself Edward lay directly on it and stretched his body, half-squinting his eyes in contentment.

    Country people are really the most suitable for rural places.

    For this kind of behavior.  The two knights showed disdain without concealing their expressions, and the younger one sneered: "Your Majesty, Master, I am wronging you to live in a place like this."

    It's a pity that someone didn't feel this level of ridicule at all. He just sighed a little: "Master, that's great Over there in the northwest, you can't come up with any elegant names. There's almost one named Edward in every village.  Yes, there may be several more. Because it is said that this name can protect wealth, many people call it this. But this is good, it will be very honorable to be called this name in the future."

    The two knights could do nothing about such vulgar thoughts and simply remained silent.  But this one named Edward never understands the atmosphere: "Teacher, what are they planning? Is it so mysterious? Is another noble going to be in trouble? Conquer their homes and exterminate their clans? Because they are afraid of being discovered, they secretly mobilized people from other places.  manpower?"

    "You shouldn't know, you'd better not ask." The two knights looked at each other, wary at the same time.

    "That's right. You don't know either."

    "Asshole, who said we don't know, we are here to save people"

    "shut up!"

    The young knight's angry words were interrupted by the woman's voice, and Tahitian stepped from the door to the bed in two steps.  He picked up the guy's collar and looked into his eyes: "Don't think that you can explore the secrets if you avoid magic detection. If you have any evil intentions, let me find out. I will cut off your head immediately!"

    "Secrets What's the use of a few knights keeping so many secrets?"

    The anger on the pretty face so close at hand.  Someone just shook his head: "Listen to those stories in the tavern, aren't all knights supposed to be upright? Even if they want to kill people, they have to declare a challenge in front of their faces, slap the opponent in the face with a glove, and then use their spears to fight each other.  Killing is you are so secretive, or are you meeting and planning underground. Naturally, it seems that you can't see the light of day Or, he doesn't think highly of your ability to keep secrets? "

    The female knight was speechless again.

    She angrily shook off the guy, feeling a bit of sadness in her heart - she herself didn't like this sneaky style, but there must be some deep meaning in what the respected teacher did.  But the development of the current situation is by no means optimistic - the scale of this settlement is already so large, with underground floors and even a farm as a disguise. There are not many things that require such covert actions, and the matter involves Jin Jinhua  of the Knights

    Assassination or rebellion?

    Two terrifying associations surfaced and then dissipated - there is no possibility of rebellion in Illyria now. Jin Jinhua, especially the Thunder Red Dragon, guards the entire city extremely tightly. As for assassination knights who only know how to fight on horseback use  To carry out assassination is even more foolish.

    With her emotions in a turmoil, she didn't notice at all that the man lying on the bed squinted his eyes, and his black pupils had already lit up with two mysterious silver points.

    It¡¯s a bit disappointing.

    A group of people may seem mysterious, but in fact they are just low-level fish. Even the two priests and mages responsible for interrogating are not at the core and don¡¯t know much.  Those who claim to know - in fact, they are all vague.  It seems that the person who really gives the orders has not yet arrived, and the old knight who is most likely to know some inside informationBut I prefer to be tough, and it takes a lot of strength to find out the inside story.

    Just like the so-called ¡®Edward Snowden¡¯, this body is just an illusory shadow.  Although it avoids more trouble caused by too strong power.  But there are even fewer things that can be done

    "However, the connections that are not buried deeply can still be clarified.

    Unlike mages, knights are becoming more and more valuable. For warriors, youth is their capital, and the peak of human physical strength is only twenty or thirty years, and the golden period is halved, so if you haven't realized it before the age of thirty-five,  If you reach the edge of the so-called rules, generally speaking, you have no hope for life, unless you encounter some great luck later, such as getting a shower of dragon blood in the legend or something.

    After the age of fifty, no matter how hard one exercises, one's physical strength cannot stop the natural law of continuous decline. In addition, knights often accumulate old injuries. If an old knight of this age is not specialized in command ability, he usually can only  Choose to return to your own territory to retire.  And now, what can be done by transferring an old guy who has obviously reached his old age back to Illyria?

    His most specialized job, right?

    Although there were not many people involved in the 'interrogation' this time, only twenty or thirty, it was enough for Edward to notice the outstanding abilities of this group of knights - except for the three apprentices of the old knight, they were all around thirty years old.  , has a long and muscular body, and excellent reflexes. What is especially rare is that he has a perseverance in mind and a strong spirit. Although his affinity for the magic network is not very good, if he is trained, he can do a lot of things, such as before  , the method of using magic equipment demonstrated by the female knight.

    If we infer from this aspect, the old knight may have been sent to this place mainly to teach this kind of thing.

    Magic props and scrolls are not as convenient as spells, but they are faster. If there is a group of people who can use them on a large scale, even if they are just common items like the fireball wand, the damage caused will be quite astonishing.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
