Chapter 1261: Heretics


Hao Ren couldn't distinguish the intricate heraldic insignia of the Talos Kingdom, nor could he understand the connection between the cavalrymen's attire and their corresponding legions, he could only tell that this team was from the royal family based on the eagle ornaments on the battle flags held by the knights, and it seemed that the massive impact caused by the disintegration ray attracted the attention of the White City guards.Also, a disintegration ray directly erased the equivalent of half of the town's land, and if such a movement could not attract the attention of Bai City, the sentinels were really blind.However, these knights came a little faster - it took some time from the time they saw the explosion at Kant Manor, to the time when the Knights set out as a whole and then came from the White City to the manor.Hao Ren didn't know how good Taros's army was, and naturally he couldn't judge how much time they needed to complete the assembly, he just instinctively felt that the team was coming quickly.It was as if he had expected something to happen at Kant Manor and had prepared in advance.The cavalry was led by several royal knights to the small high ground in front of Kant's manor, and they pointed at the sight of the manor with only half of the ruins left, apparently stunned, and then some of the cavalry broke away from the ranks and rushed towards the manor from both sides - the surviving servants of Kant's manor were fleeing from those paths, and it seemed that the knights were not prepared to let anyone leave the place.And the main force of this army rushed straight in the direction of Hao Ren.They shouldn't have been able to see Hao Ren yet, but when they looked at it from a distance, it was easy to see that the ground that had been turned into white sand was starting from the hall of the manor's main house, which was the starting point of the disintegration rays, and the investigation would naturally begin from there.Hao Ren watched the knights rushing towards him, and after a little thought, he took the initiative to walk out with a big grin, and in order to prevent anyone from seeing him, he also raised his spear and swung it vigorously twice.Sure enough, he immediately saw several knights in front of him speed up, and almost in the blink of an eye, these heavily armed iron cans rode up to him, and the knights circled around Hao Ren twice, seemingly extremely surprised, and then the knight in the lead reached out and took off his mask.This is a tall middle-aged man, with particularly eye-catching red hair, and a scar on his face that shows his military exploits, his appearance is not angry and arrogant, and his stiff eyebrows seem to always contain a ball of fire - Hao Ren only noticed at this time that the opponent's breastplate was engraved with extremely complex enchantment patterns, and the golden eagle and sword marks could be seen on the cloak, this level of equipment is probably not just as simple as a cavalry captain.This extremely majestic knight turned over and dismounted, and he looked at Hao Ren in surprise: "Guardian?

”"Ah, it's me," Hao Ren looked at the big man in front of him who seemed to be a little impressed but couldn't remember his name, "You are ......"

"Grohn, you should have seen me," the tall knight replied in a thunderous voice, "The king's chief military advisor, General Baicheng, the supreme commander of the Kingdom's Eagle Legion.Guardian, what the hell is going on here?

”"In short, I was calculated and ambushed by a guy who claimed to be a nobleman of the kingdom," Hao Ren shrugged and pushed Ramor forward, "leaving only one alive." ”After that, he kept silent and waited for the follow-up developments.He knew that an interesting and delicate situation had arisen: he was an "ancient guardian" who had suddenly appeared, with a reputation gained out of thin air, respected in terms of status, but without any roots in this kingdom and not necessarily much trust from the king, and on the other hand - Count Willy, a rebel who had been lurking in the upper echelons of the kingdom for many years, his identity seemed to be well hidden, and even now the nobles of Talos still consider him a rare young talent, a pillar of the state, He was a member of the country's entrenched aristocracy, and although there were thousands of such nobles, each nobleman was protected by their system.In other words, he was deeply trusted by the king.An ancient guardian and a kingdom nobleman meet in private, and after a large explosion, the nobleman and his manor are wiped out, and the ancient guardian is unharmed, and proves that the nobleman is a criminal, and it is self-evident who is the first person to be suspected under normal circumstances.But the general's reaction after hearing his words was a little subtle: Grohn's expression seemed to be taken for granted, and he had been surprised for a moment, but this surprise did not seem to be due to Hao Ren's accusations, but because the way things had developed was somewhat unexpected.The general glanced at the half of Kant's manor that had been reduced to ruins: "I didn't expect it to develop to this point......

Lord Guardian, are you going to take care of all the heretics here?

”"Heretics?"

Hao Ren frowned, and suddenly remembered that Ramour seemed to have mentioned a "Order" before, "They seem to have mentioned it, but to be honest, I'm still a little confused......

Judging by your reaction, did you already know about this Count Willie?

”"I'm a martial artist, and there are some things that someone else will explain to you," Grohn said, looking up in the other direction, "Well, they're coming." ”Another group of men was coming from the direction of White City.The group was larger, and the team could also see wizards in robes, and the leader of the team was also a high-ranking knight with full top-of-the-line equipment, Hao Ren understood what was going on: they and the first cavalry to arrive were supposed to set off with the entire team, but in order to save time, the light cavalry led by Grohn arrived at Kant Manor early, leaving the slower wizards who needed to be protected a second group to arrive.Such a large-scale mixed force proves that what happened in Kant Manor is extraordinary.The knights of the second team came to Hao Ren, but the leader made Hao Ren stunned.This is not a knight in heavy armor, but a nobleman in chain mail and a smock: the Grand Duke of Rune.Seeing this grand duke come to him, Hao Ren couldn't help but touch his chin: "It seems to be a little interesting." ”Grand Duke Rune turned over and dismounted, as neat as a well-trained knight - the countries of the Kolo world are mired in chaotic war, even the nobles of each country must be skilled in bowing horses, and among the high-ranking people of the kingdom, there are few people who do not have any combat ability."

Guardian ......"

The kingdom minister still had that frozen and rigid face, as if he was wearing a stone mask, and he glanced Hao Ren up and down, "It seems that you are indeed not in the same group as them. ”"A bunch?"

Hao Ren was still thinking about how the Grand Duke was going to talk to him, but he didn't expect the first sentence to be this, "You said these crazy people of the Kant family?

After a long time, you suspect that I am in league with them?

”Grand Duke Lune's face did not change, but nodded: "A stranger suddenly appeared next to Her Royal Highness Veronica, and as soon as he came, he came into contact with the royal heir, so I can't help but doubt it."

But just now, the eyeliner I planted in Kant's manor came back with a message confirming that you are not related to them, and that on the contrary, they are on the opposite side of you. ”As he spoke, the Grand Duke with facial paralysis set his eyes on the ruins of the manor, which had been reduced to ruins, and he frowned: "They have already planted this level of power in the kingdom......

I can't imagine what Talos will face if everything goes according to their plan......"

Hao Ren finally figured out one thing at this time, he glared at the Grand Duke: "Wait and wait - so you have been wary of me since the first time we met, the reason is that you think I am also a 'heretic'?"

”"The timing of your appearance is too sensitive, your identity background is like a fantasy, your words and deeds are suspicious everywhere, and the White City is shrouded in a dark cloud - Your Highness Veronica can trust you, but I can't."

Saying that, Grand Duke Lu finally turned his face: "Guardian, I know you want a more detailed explanation, don't worry, you will naturally get all the answers after this time, Your Majesty is waiting for us to go back in the Golden Rose Palace." ”Hao Ren nodded, and looked up into the distance: the knights had already divided into several forces to seal off the entire Kant Manor, and the battle flags of the golden eagles could be seen fluttering in the wind at every intersection, and most of the surviving servants who had fled from the manor in all directions had been captured, and these panicked people were driven together by the cavalry, looking like driven livestock.Seeing this scene, Hao Ren frowned: "When dealing with ordinary people, these soldiers are quite hardworking. ”"There is no need to pity these 'ordinary people'," Grand Duke Lune said with a blank expression, "In these places where cultists gather, there will be no truly innocent ordinary people." ”As if to confirm the words of the Grand Duke of Lune, a group of servants who had been driven by the cavalry stumbled in this direction, and among these domestic servants there was an official wizard, who summoned a poisonous cloud and instantly brought down the soldiers guarding beside him, and then the other servants rushed to the clothes soldiers.It all happened in a flash of lightning, and in the blink of an eye three more soldiers were cut down, but the riot ended much faster: a bolt of lightning shot from afar, and the lightning split into several strands in mid-air, killing the "domestic servants" in an instant.Above the cavalry regiment in the distance, a silver-robed wizard floating in mid-air nodded slightly to the Grand Duke of Rune.A high-ranking knight who was the commander stepped out of the crowd and scolded the soldiers, and order was quickly restored, and the Kingdom soldiers continued to gather the survivors of Kant Manor, but this time, their movements were noticeably more ferocious than before."

These annihilation believers ......," said Archduke Lune coldly, "there is no need for any humanity to face them. ”(To be continued.) )
