Chapter 1520: Improper Knight
After leaving the camp, the hunters from Yanhuo Village flew away in a way that ordinary people could hardly imagine, hiding in the sky and hiding underground.
The four Silver Edges, led by two kingdom knights, Arlo and Fioraina, came to the ancient castle on the map.
"What a magnificent creation." Ansel sighed sincerely, "Look at the French style. Is it a building from the Old Kingdom period?"
"That's right." Wearing the kingdom's heavy knight armor that completely covered his eyes, the old knight Arlo nodded, "This is a building from the Old Kingdom period.
That was the most prosperous period of the kingdom. Unfortunately, after the "Demon Invasion" and the "Extermination Sanctions", the Old Kingdom fell into decline and later developed into the New Kingdom today."
Gordon thought, no wonder.
At first, he thought that this towering castle was also an architectural relic from ancient civilization.
But the two gave him completely different feelings.
With the construction ability of modern civilization, it is not difficult to build a castle of the same level, but it is difficult to replicate ancient civilization buildings such as stream pyramids and tree sea towers.
Modern craftsmen cannot even figure out how those blue bricks with almost no joints are made.
"I see the covered bridge leading to the castle gate is in that direction. Don't we enter from that side?" Hayata asked somewhat puzzled.
"There's a faster shortcut, come this way." Fiorina waved.
After circling around the maze-like courtyard ruins, everyone came to a large, neatly-made cave made of bricks and stones.
"Is this Jingmao?" Xianglan asked curiously.
"No, this is a skylight for letting in light." Fiorina smiled and jumped down from the cave.
The old knights Arlo and Feng Ying followed closely behind.
They have the Kinsect to cushion them, so they don't have to worry about injuries from falling.
"Safe!" Fiorina's voice came from below.
Anhilhayata rode on Gale and Amber respectively, and with the help of the Fang Hound, which had vertical climbing ability, they easily descended to the bottom of the cave.
Gordon, who was not liked by the hound, felt a little upset. He could only find a fixed point and use the hook and rope of the catapult to rappel down.
The entrance of the cave is not shallow, about the height of several floors.
When you reach the bottom of the cave, you will arrive at the interior of this ancient castle.
Due to ventilation problems, the air in the castle is slightly turbid and has a smell of decay.
Fortunately, there is no fishy smell, which means that this place is not used as a nest by some monsters.
Pig Chop took out a small explosive bomb, "We should make some noise to let them know we're here, meow?"
".No need." Fiorina, who was impressed by the power of the explosive bomb in Pig Chop's hand, quickly stopped it.
“When we teamed up with the secret service to investigate this castle, we discovered a secret room hidden by a rotten wooden door.
The room was in a secluded location, but had good ventilation and rainwater was collected nearby.
If the special forces team really enters this ancient castle, Selvagina will most likely lead his men to rest there."
Gordon glanced around and confirmed it was safe. "Lead the way."
Fiorina had obviously been here more than once. Following her lead, the group made many twists and turns and soon arrived near the "secret room" she mentioned.
Fiorina did not lead everyone in directly, but drew out her one-handed sword and struck the shield on her right arm twice.
Soon, there were noises coming from the room.
Several knights, led by a tall, silver-haired man, walked out of the room.
They are the missing members of the Kingdom's Secret Service.
Just as the two were about to exchange a few pleasantries, Lepachi rushed in front of Feng Ying, screaming, "Feng Yingying~!"
Feng Ying: "?"
Is our relationship so good?
Before she could be surprised for two seconds, Lepachi, with her hair loose, revealed her true purpose.
"Are there any hair ties?"
Feng Ying rolled her eyes, "No, why don't you ask Fiorina?"
"There is definitely no tomboy with muscular body." Lepachi said with a sad face, blurting out words that should never come out of an idol's mouth.
Fiorina's eyes twitched, and she was ready to settle the score with her when she returned.
It was Hayata who rummaged through the pouch behind her waist, took out a hair tie and handed it to her.
Lepage took the hair rope with shining eyes, bowed vigorously as if to throw herself out, said thank you, then put her hands on her chin and asked pitifully:
"Pretty sister, can you give the lovely Lepachi another hair tie?"
Hayata had no choice but to take out the last spare hair tie and give it to her.
Lepachi took out a small mirror and a small comb, combed her hair skillfully, and tied it into her signature double ponytail hairstyle.
After completing all this, Lepachi seemed to have drunk an energy drink. All the previous fatigue and slight dejection were swept away. She blinked and posed in a cute way.
"Everyone's idol, Lepache! Resurrection!"
"."
Everyone looked at her in silence for two seconds, then returned to discussing business.
After briefly introducing each other's identities and confirming that the two special forces knights, Selvagina and Lepachi, were not injured and could participate in the battle as planned, Gordon asked:
"May I ask what happened exactly? What was the status of the original silver dragon? And, is there any more specific battle intelligence?"
Selvagina did not answer Gordon's question immediately. Instead, he carefully adjusted his demeanor, then suddenly grabbed Gordon's hand and shook it vigorously.
"Sir, as a fellow great swordsman, you are one of the people I admire the most, but please remember that one day I will surpass you and become the strongest knight!"
Gordon: "."
Although, I'm not a knight. Why are these special forces knights making so much noise?
“Ahem—.”
Selvagina, who had let go of Gordon's hand, cleared his throat and got to the point.
"We were in the northeast of the Fortress Heights. We kept a safe distance of at least 300 meters and monitored the 'Silver Knight' with binoculars.
It had just killed a Tengumon and torn it to pieces.
By the way, judging from the appearance of the Tengumon, it should not be infected with gnawing insects.
That knight attacked innocent people again. Has he also fallen?"
“It could also be a defensive strategy.”
Ansir commented: "There used to be a large number of large monsters living in the Fortress Highlands, but after the continuous hunting by the Duke Silver Dragon, the number of large monsters has decreased dramatically.
Without large monsters, nearby gnawing insects will not be able to find a host, and the number of gnawing insects in the area will decrease, making its situation safer. "
At this point, Ansel paused for a moment before continuing, "It is also possible that it will become more dangerous.
If a large number of gnawing insects come here in groups, then the original silver dragon with extremely strong life energy will inevitably become the target of their concentrated attack."
"That's right." Selvagina crossed his arms and nodded heavily, "This brings us to another discovery we made in this castle.
Perhaps the grumpy Silver Knight hasn't noticed it yet, but it is already in danger."
"What did you find?" Feng Ying asked curiously.
“Come with me.” Selvagina waved his hand and walked towards the deeper part of the castle. “On the way, I will tell you about our direct contact with the Silver Knight.
And, be prepared for battle."
