In a tavern in Constantiniya, the capital of the Seven Hills Empire, a young man named Dast held a wine glass and talked endlessly about his great achievements under the attention of all the guests:
"...Those cowardly pirates didn't dare to fight me head-on, so they could only hide behind the city wall. But although they were frightened by me, they held the ax tightly in their hands. One of them was called 'Snake' The pirate leader, who was full of bad intentions, and the pirate named "White Shirt" were hiding on both sides of the city gate passage. Just waiting for me to break into the city, they jumped out and attacked me from both sides at the same time. Their axes But it’s as long as a person, and if it were to be chopped off on the head, it would be split with the helmet to the bottom, and the whole person would be split in half!”
Having said this, Dast deliberately stopped, drank all the wine in the glass, and then boldly shouted to the tavern owner: "One more drink!"
This Dast came to Constantiniya a month ago. He has beautiful blond hair and sharp facial contours. He is a very handsome young man. According to his own account, he was born into a small noble family in the Alemannic Federation. Since he was the seventh son, he had no right to inherit land. He didn't want to sacrifice his life for his stupid brother, so he began to travel around the world alone, punishing traitors and eradicating evil, rescuing people from danger, and was given the title of "White Knight" by people. Also according to his own words, he discovered some clues left by the previous generation of pirate kings, and is looking for big secret treasures buried by the pirate kings all over the world.
Someone was booing below: "Dust, what you said is so thrilling, but I think your head is still in good shape. Could it be that 'Snake Eyes' and 'White Shirt' forgot to sharpen their axes?"
"No way, their axes are very sharp. Once the ax goes down, a big hole will be made in the ground!" Dast said, "It's a pity that their opponent is me, the White Knight! I have seen through them long ago. How could I just obediently enter through the city gate like this? I immediately drew my bow outside the city gate and prayed for Apollo's blessing. With Apollo's protection, the arrow I shot directly penetrated the city wall. I shot the 'Snake Eyes' hiding behind the city wall to death! Before the 'White Shirt' could figure out what happened, I shot out another arrow. Hey, he was lucky, I only hit his Toes, they ran away!"
The crowd roared with laughter. Daxter proudly drank the new wine brought by his boss in one gulp, and his face immediately turned red. He walked to the corner, picked up the bow he had placed there, and walked back to the center of the tavern with it held high. The bow's body was coated with a layer of expensive paint and engraved with brilliant patterns.
"Did you see it? This is Apollo's Sun Bow! The arrows it shoots can penetrate. At the same time, it also has the ability to heal wounds. It was given to me by Apollo when he protected me!"
The magic system of the Seven Hills Empire mainly includes the blessings of five gods: Hermes, Aphrodite, Ares, Zeus and Cronus. Although there are far more gods in the mythology of the Seven Hills Empire than these five, because these five gods correspond to the five planets in the sky, they are easier to perceive and the power gained from them is stronger, so people who learn magic always Choose one of these five gods first. Over time, other gods were excluded from the magic system of the Seven Hills Empire.
But in addition to these five gods, two other gods also have their counterparts in the sky. People rarely mention them, not because their protection is not strong, but because these two gods rarely give people protection, and their rarity even surpasses the protection of Zeus, known as the king's protection. These two gods are Apollo and Artemis, corresponding to the sun and moon respectively.
Dast burped and said drunkenly: "The exciting part is yet to come. 'White Shirt' ran away. I was about to pursue him when I suddenly felt something was wrong and took a few steps back. Good guy, I need one. The big tree with twenty people hugging it fell from the sky, creating a big hole where I was standing just now, and there was actually a person standing on the tree! It was the 'Triumpher'!"
Many people asked below: "Who is the 'triumphant'? I've never heard of it!"
"You don't even know about 'The Triumphant'? It's already gone viral in the Alemannic Federation! It's a black dragon that has transformed into a human. Its roar is like strong wind, and its breath is like fire! Unfortunately, her opponent is my White Knight..."
Dast raised his head high, and was about to tell how he heroically defeated the monster, but was interrupted by a voice from below: "Dast! You are so brave, then that look on your eyes Where did Tuanqing come from?"
Dast subconsciously touched his left eye. Ever since he walked into the tavern today, everyone noticed the bruises on his eyes. Dast smiled awkwardly and replied: "Haha, no matter how brave the knight is, he can't withstand the tripping of small stones on the ground. I fell down yesterday."
"I heard that she was beaten by Princess Anna's guards!" A guest laughed from below, "I heard that your kid looked straight at Princess Anna and followed her for two streets!"
Anna Cornelia Scipio is the daughter of Basileus Cornelius Scipio, the current ruler of the Seven Hills Empire. Although she is only fourteen years old, she is already a well-known beauty.
Dast rolled his eyes: "Who said I was following? It was Princess Anna who held my hand and wouldn't let go! She loves me to death and keeps saying she wants to marry me! Unfortunately, she is seven The princess of the Qiu Empire, and I am just a knight without inheritance rights. "
As he spoke, Dast pressed his heart with one hand and extended his other hand forward, reciting a verse: "Ah! True love always has a fateful fate! Princess Anna, why are you Scipio? Abandon your Father, abandon your name! I will swear to the moon that I will use my whole heart to fill the empty name outside of you!"
There was another burst of laughter from the crowd. Of course they knew that what Dast said was all lies, and they could just treat it as a story told at a banquet. As Dast performed, they ate food and drank wine, not to mention how happy they were.
The door of the tavern was suddenly knocked open, and a little girl about fourteen years old appeared at the door dragging a large package. She has a small and delicate figure, almost two heads shorter than Dust. Her hair is as bright as the moonlight, wrapping her round face and big eyes like a shell wrapping pearls.
"Lord White Knight! Hurry! Elope with me!"
This slightly childish voice frightened the guests into dropping their wine glasses to the ground.
Dust was half awake from his wine. He looked at the little girl and stammered: "Ann...Princess Anna?"
