I heard that this old man actually knew me.
.
The captain couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Old man.
Do you recognize us? ? "
There was some surprise in his words.
I didn't expect that there would be people who knew me in this place.
. After all, he is a black-armored knight.
It's not those white-armored knights who usually go out frequently to perform missions and patrol.
.
The old man raised his head and said, "That's right.
. Your emblem.
It belongs to our King Raul, the Lion-Hearted King.
. You are members of the Royal Guard.
And I have been to Holy Light City before.
I understand that your Royal Guards are graded according to the color of their armor.
. The most numerous are knights in white armor.
Almost all of these people are selected from the elite members of the army and professional guilds.
. Then there are you black-armored knights.
. You are all composed of elite knights in white armor.
. Further up is the knight in shining armor.
. Guard the palace area.
. They are selected from the elite among your black-armored knights.
Further up.
besides.
only.
I don't know.
"
The captain of the black armored knight did not expect this.
. This old man has actually been to Holy Light City.
. And also paid attention to their Royal Guards.
.
So he helped the old man and everyone else up.
. Said: "Knight in shining armor, up.
That is the red-armored knight.
. These knights are not just the elite of knights in shining armor.
Some are even generals in the army.
constituted.
. Their only purpose.
It is to ensure the safety of the royal family.
Personally protect the royal family.
That's the real elite.
. These people are even Captain Lancer of the Royal Guards.
. Neither can be mobilized.
"
Hear what the black-armored knight captain said.
. Several old men and militiamen were also envious.
. This is like the difference between civilians and celebrities.
.
The captain of the black-armored knight continued: "Old man, just tell us if you have anything to do.
No need to kneel down and kowtow.
We can do it.
within one's ability.
We will not refuse.
"
The old man nodded.
. So I recounted what happened in the village recently.
People started to disappear one after another.
Then those missing people were mutilated and thrown back, or they were tortured to the point of going crazy and then sent back.
The last few consuls organized the militia they had trained over the years to go out to crusade.
But there was no news.
It made them uneasy.
So I wanted to go to a nearby city to ask for help.
As a result, a tiger suddenly appeared on the road.
. The horses were frightened.
. After that.
It's you who show up.
Saved us.
Hear what the old man said.
. The black-armored knights present all had gloomy expressions.
.
The captain even clenched his fists and made a "crunching" sound.
.
He was in the Royal Guard.
I have also solved or participated in many difficult things.
. He also fought against many robbers and bandits.
I have arrested many myself.
Also killed many.
But something like this.
Hundreds of people were arrested one after another.
Brutally killed and tortured to the point of going crazy.
. This was the first time he heard of it.
.
Such a level of cruelty.
How can you be called a human being?
.
Fortunately, they completed their mission.
There is still plenty of time.
I heard about such a heinous person.
. It would be okay if it was not within the Holy Light Empire.
Now he is doing evil in the Holy Light Empire.
Then they serve as the Royal Guard.
It is obligatory.
.
So the team leader said: "Old man.
You don't have to worry.
We will go back with you.
Help you.
. Without further ado.
You lead the way.
"
The situation is urgent.
The squad leader directly decided to follow these people back to see the situation.
.
This carriage should have taken the lead.
. Unfortunately, this carriage is too slow.
There is no comparison with their war horses.
.
So a militiaman was left to drive the carriage back.
. The rest got on the horses of the Royal Guard.
.
"Let's go!" the squad leader ordered.
. Twenty black horses started directly.
Run out.
.
And the strength and speed of this horse reached an astonishing level.
. It only took less than 2 hours.
. He had already arrived outside the village.
.
The people in the village at this time.
I saw a group of heavily armed black-armored knights not far away.
. He couldn't help but become vigilant.
.
The next second I saw villagers on horses.
Just let down my guard.
.
The team entered the village.
Everyone dismounted one after another.
. The old man looked back at the black horse he had just ridden.
. Surprising discovery.
I had been running vigorously like this for almost 2 hours.
. Turns out he was just sweating a little.
Even his breathing didn't quicken.
It's like what I just did was just a warm-up level.
.
I saw someone coming back.
The surrounding villagers rushed forward.
. Asked a lot of questions.
.
Some people asked why only a few of you came back.
Where are the other elders and militiamen?
Who are these knights in black armor?
.
What did the city lord say?
. some type of.
.
For a while, no one could answer.
.
"Ahem." The returning old man coughed a few times.
At the same time, he tapped the ground with his crutch.
.
He is highly respected in this village.
. As soon as he made a sound.
. The surrounding villagers became quiet.
. Listen to him.
.
He told what happened.
. It turned out that they had not yet entered the city.
. I met the evil tiger.
. Later, this group of black-armored knights took him
They saved it.
.
These people are the elite of the famous Royal Guards.
. At the same time, after listening to the old man's story, he was immediately willing to help them.
Then naturally there is no need to ask the city lord for instructions.
. Even the garrison in the city.
It is impossible to compare with the Royal Guards.
.
And these royal guards came to the village.
It is also the most serious village among the several affected villages.
In almost every household, someone was killed or tortured to madness.
.
At the same time, this village is also the place where the four consuls led the team.
.
And these twenty black-armored knights came here to understand the situation first.
They briefly visited some homes in the village.
.
The visit made them furious.
. What the old man said before.
Not false at all.
He even downplayed the situation.
They didn't find out until they came here to investigate.
. That devil in their mouth.
Far more cruel than they imagined.
.
The first is these people who were tortured to the point of madness.
Not to mention that these Royal Guardsmen were approaching.
Even if his own family is close.
It can also make these people extremely scared.
. They exclude everyone they meet.
And the reason here is simply that they are too scared.
Fear of torture.
So the psychological defense collapsed.
Even the people closest to you.
They no longer believe it either.
.
Whenever someone comes near.
These people will be like wild beasts.
Started roaring wildly.
. Trying to scare the other party off with your voice.
Wait until this trick has no effect.
They will fight back crazily.
. Use hands and feet together.
And will throw anything around him that can be thrown to fight back.
.
