The group of people managed to get out of the way before being discovered by reporters, and this shortcut was very characteristic of the Kingdom: Orianna drove the car to a dead end a few streets away, aimed at the wall at the end and crashed directly into it.
Gongsun Ce felt dizzy for a moment. When he finally regained his composure, the car was already driving on the wide road.
Not far ahead is another Knights headquarters, an imposing castle. The Morton-style white walls and blue roof form the first impression of this building. Several towers rise at the four corners and side walls, and the Kingdom's Lion and Star flag flutters on the metal flagpole. Above the large arch on the front, the symbol of the Seven Swords Guarding Cross of the Knights shines brightly. Knights are walking out of the door one after another, wearing ancient armor and heavy cloaks, each with a majestic and majestic air.
"Did you use the space ability?" Mo Yuankai asked enthusiastically, "The building is used as a cover outside, and the Impermanent Envoy works in the castle?"
"This will help us carry out our work normally." Orianna sighed, "Gentlemen, please don't do anything to the kingdom... Alas, I no longer have the face to say this."
"The strength of your country's intelligence management and control capabilities can be compared to the colander I use when eating hot pot." Gongsun Ce said, "And the harmony between all classes in your country's society is comparable to the friendship of our underground gangs there."
"The social conflicts in this country are indeed getting more and more intense." Arlandia agreed. "There are constant conflicts in all walks of life between the civilian forces represented by new entrepreneurs, workers, and craftsmen, and the aristocratic forces that control political resources and a large number of national enterprises. The situation in the larger society also affected the Knights. People labeled every high-ranking member as "noble" or "civilian" and interpreted any of their actions as the intention of the political forces behind them. "
Gongsun Ce twitched the corner of his mouth: "You, the Immortal Law Envoy, are also engaged in politics?"
"In the inner society of the kingdom, meaningless internal fighting is more intense than in the outside world. The three forces of the royal family, mages and knights have been attacking each other all year round..."
"Knight Arlandia!" Orianna quickly interrupted, "Please save some face for the kingdom!"
"Knight Orianna, whether you speak tactfully or not cannot change the truth. The glory of the kingdom only depends on its current situation." Airandia said calmly, "I will go get the sword for you later. Can you please first Leading the way for guests?"
"Of course! Please leave it to me!"
Dawn Knight got out of the car first and left. Orianna parked the car in the parking lot on the side of the castle and led the two of them towards the real headquarters. They walked through the small garden in front of the castle and entered the hall room in the center of the headquarters. The cantilevered joist ceiling replaced the pillars to support this wide space. Stone statues of famous knights stand throughout the hall. The walls on both sides are painted with highly religious murals: one is the knight following the king to defeat the evil dragon, the other It was seven knights who were canonized by the Holy King.
"Cultural relics..." After asking for permission, Mo Yuankai started taking photos with great interest.
Gongsun Ce looked at the statues and murals in the ancient building and said, "So you can also use a sword?"
"Ah, that's... the sword of the Seventh Knight." Orianna said unclearly, and quickly changed the subject, "Please forget those unpleasant things for the time being. As you two can see, the Knights are in the majority. It has nothing to do with those arguments, because..."
"——Because we are royal knights who abide by our duties and bear honor."
A friendly voice intervened at this time. This voice was rich and powerful, with the unique sense of intimacy of the old man. Gongsun Ce raised his eyes and saw an old man walking towards the crowd. He was wearing an official-like suit, his gray hair was combed into three-quarter parts, and he had an amiable smile. Although he was old, he did not look decadent, but was as energetic as a young man. Take heart.

I don't know if I can help. "
"This gesture itself is worthy of gratitude." The old leader said with a smile, "Please rest assured. Although the situation in the kingdom is unpredictable, the Knights will not be involved in meaningless struggles most of the time. Such as the Knights Orianna said, our main duty is to protect the kingdom and its people, this hall is a reflection of our daily life, ancient, dignified and proud...?"
Halfway through, the old group leader looked towards the corridor on the right side of the hall. A sound of soft footsteps was gradually approaching, mixed with someone's low-pitched scolding and a gasping sound that sounded familiar to Gongsun Ce.
"Quiet...stop...!" "Haha haha!" "I don't want to hurt you... Sit down! Obey!"
"Hahahahahahaha!"
"
The expressions of the old captain and Orianna looked so similar at this moment, with a sense of shameful powerlessness mixed in the accustomed calmness. The blonde said sadly, "Oh no."
"——Woof!"
The next second, a super-large dog with snow-white fur and a look like a snowball ran wildly from the corridor on the right. It is about 3 meters tall, with strong and strong limbs. Nearly half of its tongue sticks out of its mouth, and its saliva drips wildly in the sacred hall! The knight Yulia pulled the giant dog's leash and was dragged behind him with joy. He shouted angrily: "Captain, don't let the guests come over yet! Sarah's dog is very excited today!"
"Um...the guest has already arrived." Gongsun Ce raised his hand forward, "How about the guest helping you?"
The three knights widened their eyes at the same time: "No!" "Please don't!" "Stop!"
"
"Why?"
The telekinesis rope popped out instantly and firmly bound the Big Snowball Dog's body. "Ouch..." The big dog started to struggle violently on the spot. Gongsun Ce was working hard and saying that this dog is so damn strong. It's like a train. He pretended to be relaxed and carefree and patted the big dog's head. : "It's quite relaxing at this level! What's there to worry about?"
Orianna said desperately: "It is a mimetic dog... It can imitate the properties of supernatural powers..."
"……ah?"
The big dog stuck out its tongue and licked Gongsun Ce hard. In half a second, it became invisible and colorless like telekinesis, becoming a huge invisible dog.
"What have you done, superpower!" Yulia roared.
"Damn it, isn't it just an invisible dog?!" Gongsun Ce retorted, "You can't even deal with an invisible dog?"
Yulia covered her head in pain: "You idiot. It is equipped with synchronized weapons! Its changes will be synchronized to... all dogs!"
Hahahahahahaha! A familiar gasp approached from the corridor on the right. Gongsun Ce turned around and saw dozens of dogs of different breeds running towards the hall excitedly!
Their bodies, either petite or strong, mutated as they approached the hall. Gongsun Ce saw with his own eyes a large dog that looked like a husky, turning from a furry animal into transparent air in mid-air. The speed of this air dog was so fast that it pulled out the afterimage. After landing, it started running super happily, setting off a whirlwind of dog smell in the noble hall.
"Woof!" "Woof woof!" "Woof woo~~!"
Knight Gaffrey happened to be walking out of the left corridor with several briefcases in his arms, and was knocked to the ground by a transparent husky. Paper documents flew like snowflakes one after another, and export watermarks and tooth marks appeared in less than half a second. Gaffrey pressed the transparent husky with both hands and tried hard to avoid its passionate tongue: "Careful about your appearance, sir! You are a military dog!"
"Knights, move! Don't let them get out!" The old leader took the lead and pounced on a large dog vigorously, but missed it - squatting there was a miniature dog about the size of a hand. pet.
"Mr. McCollough, can't you use your impermanence method?!" Gongsun Ce tried his best to stop the big dog and shouted at the same time.
The transparent puppy licked the old leader's hand, and he nodded repeatedly: "I'll try to control my strength..."
"Captain, calm down!" Yulia called out as he battled wits with a transparent bulldog, which was biting the old commander's pants, "Su
Pebbia will be burned by you!
"
"*** Let's catch them together." Gongsun Ce quickly opened the telekinesis net and began to report the location, "5 big ones and 2 small ones at the gate!"
"Leave it to me." Mo Yuankai somersaulted to the door and slapped his hand on the ground, "I'll make a wall——"
"Please don't destroy the hall, Mr. Mo! These are cultural relics!" Orianna screamed.
Mo Yuankai froze and quickly threw off his vest, shaking it in his hands. "Then use this!" The vest quickly reorganized into a very thin but elastic net, covering the dogs together.
"Okay, okay, I'll take care of the right side - the three big guys on the left want to eat the statue, damn!"
"Stop, stop!
Orianna waved her hands in panic, "Heavenly Wheel Stagnation, Zhi Ge and Light!"
A pale halo expanded to the entire hall, saving the poor statues at the critical moment. The female knight patted her chest and said reassuringly: "It's okay, gentlemen. My manifestation is to reject the realm of harm and violence. No one or anything will be hurt now."
Gongsun Ce nodded: "Is rope restraint considered violence?"
"Calculate……"
"Very good, Orianna." Gongsun Ce sighed, "You let the biggest one run away."
"Woof woof woof!
"
Gongsun Ce's telekinesis was restrained and dispersed, and the large transparent snowball dog rolled around in the hall. Gongsun Ce and Yulia rushed forward at the same time, trying to restrain the overly happy big dog, but because of the power of manifestation, they refused to "attack" and were bounced towards each other. Their heads hit each other hard, and the two young men covered their heads at the same time and shouted angrily: "Take your ability away from me!" "Knight Orianna!"
"Good dog, don't run around." Mo Yuankai quickly stepped forward and stopped the big snowball dog with a non-threatening movement. Orianna turned her head in panic: "I, I, I...ah! Stop!" She was knocked down by a large transparent dog. The dog licked the female knight's face enthusiastically. It seemed that this action was not successful. Defined as "attack".
"I've said before that we shouldn't keep too many dogs in the headquarters!" "Gaffrey, my shoes are wet..." "For everyone's sake, just stand there and don't move, superpower!" "You Do you care about me—I rely on this dog to bite my cloak!”
For a moment, the hall of the headquarters was in chaos. The area that Orianna expanded first made it difficult for several other manifestation magicians to use their power. Those who wanted to use large-scale attacks were restrained because they were worried that their abilities would be copied or cultural relics would be destroyed. The excited barks of the transparent dogs mixed with people's voices made the Knights' headquarters look like a meat market.
"Thank God, everyone, I finally got rid of the reporters..."
Knight Rakel happened to run into the hall at this moment. He almost laughed out loud when he saw the battle between transparent dogs: "What happened? The canine phantom is making a commotion?"
Gaffrey was snatching documents with his dog: "Knight Raquel, I sincerely suggest that you use non-violent physical violence to gently resolve this ungrateful problem."
"……Feel sorry?"
"Don't use the impermanent method!" Yulia shouted.
Gaffrey's long sentence caused Raquel's reaction to slow down a step. A large ball of white wax mud rolled through the hall like a wave, causing all the transparent dogs' movements to solidify like wax statues, including that one. A snowball-like color dog.
"Ouch~~~"
So half a second later, the transparent dog army transformed into the wax dog army. Each of these new breeds has an appearance like melted wax, with their ears, nose, and mouth sliding down with every step they take. At first glance, they look like an army of ghost dogs returning from hell.
Knight Orianna was holding a dachshund in her hands, and her eyes happened to see the other party turn into a half-melted dog wax figure. Suddenly, a piercing scream rang through the headquarters: "Ghost!
!
"
Orianna threw the wax dachshund into the air and subconsciously hugged the man closest to him. Mo Yuankai raised his hands in embarrassment to show his gentlemanly demeanor. "Be careful, little one." The old leader rushed
He immediately caught the dachshund and tried to hold together the half of its body that was about to slip off. "Stay out of my way!" "Please get out!" Gongsun Ce and Yulia were about to fight. Seeing that the chaotic situation was about to get out of hand, a crisp bell rang.
Jingle Bell!
The Dawn Knight stood silently at the gate, carrying a heavy weapon wrapped in red cloth on his back, and in his hand was a small bell ball that canines liked very much at first sight. She shook the dog's ball, and the wax dogs running around on the ground immediately ran over, looking up expectantly.
"sit down."
The wax dog dogs sat down obediently. Pet cages were generated out of thin air, and the dogs were locked up. In each cage, there was an identical small toy waiting for them. The Dawn Knight threw the ball in his hand to the Mimetic Dog. As soon as the ball touched it, the wax figure was lifted, and all the dogs returned to normal - their facial features were all in order, and their bodies were not lacking in weight.
This also made the remnants of the dog group appear, so everyone found themselves covered in dog hair, and several people had drool on their faces.
"Sorry, gentlemen. Knight Sara was patrolling the Shadowmist City." Dawn Knight nodded, turned around and said, "Knight Sara, please come and see the situation. I need to remind you to implement stricter control on pets. It is very necessary.”
"Please, relax, Airandia. If you keep doing this, I will call you Dawn's mother."
Knight Sara replied half-jokingly and walked into the hall with small steps. She sniffed the smell in the air and said in confusion: "This is... violet perfume? Mixed with some strange chemicals. This smell will make animals excited. Who did this prank?"
Several people looked at Gongsun Ce. The black-haired boy patted the dog hair on his body vigorously: "Do I look like someone who wears perfume?!"
"A team of mages came to the headquarters this morning to deliver documents." Gaffrey said, "I would venture to guess..."
"It's something they can do. Most of them are alchemy apprentices."
Sarah wagged her tail and trotted briskly to the middle of the hall, her long golden hair shining brightly in the sun.
"Okay everyone, clean up your image quickly and show off your grace and elegance. We have guests coming today.
Yulia, pat the hair on your head; Orianna, there is still saliva on your face; Raquel adjusts his cloak; Gaffrey's tie is wet; Old Captain, it's time for you to change your pants... Sir, are you an apprentice at the Mage Academy? The robe has been changed into a really fashionable style. "
Gongsun Ce sat on the ground and looked at the female knight with complicated eyes. Knight Sarah's hair is soft and smooth, her eyes are bright, her nose is black, her teeth are neat, and she didn't drool at all when she spoke. You can tell at a glance that she is a very well-educated person...
Golden Retriever.
"I think we might be the guests you mentioned."
Knight Sarah licked her nose, raised her front paws and shook his hand.
"The Royal Knights of Morton welcome you, sir."
