Heroes of the Invincible Knight

"clang!"

"clang!"

"clang!"

Dragon City

The big bell at the top struck three times, and the entire palace reverberated.

This bell has been passed down since the time of Aragon, and it is one of the important symbols of the kingdom. It will ring whenever there is a big event.

three beeps

A group of well-dressed palace guards at the main gate of Wangcheng slowly opened the gate.

The palace guards have neat steps, gorgeous dresses, tall palace gates, and mighty imperial guards on both sides.

All show the majesty of the master of the palace.

However, when the iron-cast gate was pushed, it made a toothache creaking sound, which seemed to be a sign of the decay of the dynasty.

"Enter!"

Outside the gate, tens of thousands of nobles and officials stood.

Although the Northern Land Army massacred the nobles in the capital, most of them were limited to bloodline nobles, and their targets were mostly restless upper-class nobles.

Although the number of people killed was quite a lot, for the royal capital, a place where nobles walk everywhere, that number is less than one cent.

Even if not all nobles are eligible to enter the palace to participate in the grand ceremony, there are still people piled up in front of the palace gate.

As the gate of the palace opened wide, the people who were originally standing outside the palace entered in order.

Just participating in such a grand event, these nobles not only did not look happy, but most of them looked worried.

Originally, being able to participate in the enthronement ceremony of the new king was definitely an honor and a symbol of their status.

Under normal circumstances, they should raise their chins high at this time, take a bath and change clothes, dress up, and fully reflect the difference between themselves and those inferior people.

But at this time, although everyone was dressed decently, most of them looked shy. Except for a few people, most of them had the same temperament as a flock of frightened quails.

There is no other reason.

This new king is probably the most unstable one in the kingdom for hundreds of years.

In the past, the new kings basically had the support of the dragon knights, the loyalty of the imperial guards, and their own team when they were princes.

Usually nothing major goes wrong.

But now that His Royal Highness Pale has succeeded to the throne, not only the Dragon Knight has become history, but there is also a big prince who holds a heavy army in Krystal City, not far from the Golden Dragon.

The nobles and ministers of the kingdom didn't believe that the eldest prince who controlled the Iron Guard could recognize Paley's kingship in this way.

Just the sudden and strange death of the king, who was in his prime, made Paley's succession extremely low in legitimacy.

Moreover, there are still a large number of foreign troops in the capital.

Even if the Imperial Guards and Dragon Knights were bundled together when their combat power was intact, they would not be opponents of the Northern Army.

This northern army is completely out of the control of the royal family. A few days ago, it even drove out the palace guard who sent the order, and it was extremely domineering.

If the Northern King had any idea, the Northern Army stationed in the capital could immediately surround Miyagi.

The nobles and officials who participated in the ceremony can also be stewed, and this succession ceremony can instantly become the abdication ceremony of the Charlemagne family.

It's just that no matter what they think in their hearts, the Northern Army does not move. The Prince Paley who has just announced his succession is the most powerful in the capital. the sharp edge.

One by one, they followed the flow of people to the square of the palace and stood up to watch the ceremony.

A large number of palace guards wore armor as a guard of honor, and several cordons were separated.

The royal flag of Charlemagne's family is flying everywhere in the square of Miyagi, and it seems to be the same thing.

But in the eyes of the slightly older nobles, especially the nobles who participated in the Rennes succession ceremony.

This ceremony is just two words

shabby

On the huge square, there were no more than 20,000 to 30,000 nobles, officials, and palace guards as guards of honor.

The large square that can accommodate more than 100,000 people left a lot of space, and the crowd seemed sparse.

Some of the people in the royal capital were not invited, and even the chief officials from all over the kingdom have not yet arrived.

The ritual armor worn by Wang Qi and the palace guards was not new, but stock from the past, and even a sharp eye could see traces of use.

Anyone can feel the rush.

…

While Paley was holding the grand ceremony, several figures walked out of the portal in the south of the city.

The Northern Army soldiers in charge of the guards were startled at first, and instinctively put down the spears in their hands to act on guard.

However, when they saw clearly the figure coming out of the portal, they immediately put away their weapons, put their feet together, and their half-squatting bodies immediately stood upright.

"Master Li Cha!"

Then, as if a certain switch had been pressed, the surrounding soldiers stood at attention and saluted.

"Um!"

Li Cha nodded and led the group of people behind him straight to the camp.

Not only Sandro and other system heroes followed Li Cha, but also a group of great demon warriors carrying giant blades.

These big demon warriors, nearly three meters tall, with bulging muscles and fierce faces, felt an invisible sense of oppression just standing there.

Fortunately, the soldiers of the Northern Army were well-trained. Facing this group of oppressive red-skinned monsters, their legs and feet did not appear weak.

"Captain, look at the group of guys behind Mr. Richard, do they look like the monsters from that night?"

It wasn't until Li Cha and his group walked away that the Northern Army soldiers guarding the portal spoke in a low voice.

During the time when Bakken's family was wiped out, many elite Northern Army participated in it. They watched the demonized Marquis Bakken and Diabo afterward. It is natural to see that the group of big demons behind Richard are the same species as them.

"Don't look around, concentrate, your lord's order is not to let a single mosquito go!"

The officer guarding the portal scolded with a straight face, the soldier's face tightened, and he immediately turned his eyes back, staring at the portal firmly.

Don't let a mosquito go, that's not even an exaggeration.

The soldiers of the Northern Army who can stand guard next to the portal at close range are all real elites. There are hundreds of knights guarding behind this circle of iron horses alone, and there are also a lot of big knights in the middle.

With concentration, with their eyesight and perception, if a mosquito tries to cross the portal, they will definitely be spotted by them.

After scolding the soldiers under him, the officer also turned his sneaky gaze back.

"How long has it been since such a powerful creature was tamed by Mr. Richard?"

…

Inside a house in the south city of Golden Dragon Capital

Many generals from the North gathered in the spacious flower hall.

This luxurious mansion originally belonged to a bloodline nobleman in the capital, and the former owner had been physically settled by the Northern Army, so it was naturally requisitioned by the Northern Army at this time.

"Master Richard, judging from the information gathered by Yu Sidu, His Majesty Wren probably died at the hands of Prince Paley."

"possible?"

"I need more accurate information!"

Li Cha was sitting at the main seat in the flower hall, and both Taize and Yusi were in the capital's intelligence director, reporting to Li Cha the recent situation in the capital.

A series of changes made Li Cha feel a little overwhelmed, and he was a little dissatisfied after he figured out the ins and outs.

For such a big event, Yu Si still uses the description of "possible".

"Master Richard, the black prison in the palace is watching closely, and it is difficult for our eyeliner to penetrate into the core area."

The chief officer of Yusidu is also very wronged, although Yusidu has sufficient funds and Li Cha's full support.

But the capital is, after all, the home of the Black Hell, the home of this veteran intelligence organization that was established earlier than the kingdom.

Although because of Ren's connivance, Hei Prison did not take any targeted actions towards Yu Sidu's development in the capital.

But it doesn't mean that they will tolerate Yusi's imprisonment in the palace.

Several times, Yusi had just inserted people in, but was gifted out by the people of the black prison in a few days. The advantage of the black prison in the capital is still crushing.

Therefore, Yusi is not much clearer than the nobles of Jinlongdu about what happened in the palace.

"Well, what about the Messiah?"

Although Ren's death made Li Cha feel a little heavy, but it was not too much grief. Apart from this chaotic situation, the only thing Richard really worries about in the capital is the Messiah.

"Madam was sent out of the palace by Paley that night, she was among the army, absolutely safe."

"Did Paley take the initiative to send the Messiah out of the palace?"

Li Cha rubbed his head, then put his hands on the wooden table next to him, his fingers tapped the table unconsciously and rhythmically, making a soft sound.

Because of the lack of information, even Li Cha felt a little confused about the current situation.

When Paley launched the Palace Change, the biggest destabilizing factor was not the Iron Guards not far away, but the unstoppable Northern Army.

Others don't know, but Li Cha, who has been in business with Paley for so long, knows that this guy has made a lot of money in the south, and his subordinates not only cultivated a group of masters, but also recruited dwarves with the help of Li Cha family.

The eldest prince and the Iron Guard alone are definitely not Paley's opponent.

The only variable is Richard's attitude, and based on Richard's feelings for Messiah, Messiah is definitely a very good card.

But Paley sent the Messiah back generously, with a bright and aboveboard look, which made Richard a little uncertain about the situation.

"What is the state of the Messiah?"

Don't think about it if you don't understand it, Li Cha turned his attention to the Messiah.

"Madam didn't eat anything for the past two days, but today she only ate some pastries."

"Do you want to take a look, my lord? Madam may feel better knowing that you are back."

Ren may not be considered a loving father to his sons, but he is extremely fond of Messiah, and the relationship between Messiah and Ren is also very deep. Ren's death is definitely a huge blow to Messiah of.

"No."

Li Cha hesitated for a moment, but still declined the proposal.

Maybe Messiah should be left alone, and he should find out what kind of medicine is sold in Paley's gourd as soon as possible.

What is the truth about Ryan's death?

After making a decision, Li Cha put his fingers together and made a fist, and gave the order in a confident manner.

"There is no need for the army to surround the portal anymore. The Griffin Legion and the Silver Wing Legion have fully taken over the Golden Dragon City. If they encounter resistance, they will be killed."

"The Dragon Army marched towards the palace immediately, and no one was allowed to enter or leave the palace."

Originally, Li Cha asked the Northern Army to guard the portal because he was worried that a bunch of demons would come out of the portal on the Golden Dragon City side and cause damage to this bustling city.

After all, the strength of demons is generally stronger than that of humans. Just a few median demon tribes can drink a pot in the current Golden Dragon Kingdom. In the entire Golden Dragon, only the Northern Army has the strength to control this place.

But it's different now. The southern region has become Li Cha's territory. The portal at the end of the abyss is guarded by Li Cha's demons. The northern army on the side will be able to free up their hands.

"Wow!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Li Cha gave an order, and the generals of the Northern Army and the system heroes present stood up immediately.

The system heroes are alright, Taize and Gru look serious, showing no emotion.

But most of the generals of the Northern Army were flushed with excitement.

Surround the palace

They have waited too long for this moment.

Soon, the entire column of the Northern Land Army set out from the camp, and then divided into several parts and headed towards different directions of Jinlongdu.

The largest of them followed Li Cha's footsteps and approached the royal city in the center of Golden Dragon Capital.

royal palace

The ceremony of Paley's enthronement is still going on.

It's just that the ceremony has been simplified to the extreme.

After almost everyone arrived, an official in charge of etiquette stood on the high platform and praised Paley symbolically.

Then Paley, wearing a bright yellow dress, walked out from the crowd.

I saw Paley with a solemn face, dressed in formal attire, without the playful appearance when he was joking with Li Cha, but he also had the air of a monarch.

Several tall guards in formal armor also walked behind Paley with their heads held high.

These few people are not some kind of appearance, they are all masters of the earth rank, that is to say, it has been much easier to break through the earth knight in the past one or two years.

In the past few years, a few unfamiliar earth knights were enough to amaze the nobles present.

"Who are these people?"

It was normal for Paley and a few earth knights in armor to appear, but the group of people who followed up made many nobles present uneasy.

A group of white robes followed closely behind Paley and the others, and the leading young man squeezed out a few big knights in formal armor from behind.

"Um?"

Several earth knights seemed to want to stop them, but they were blocked by an invisible force. From the perspective of outsiders, the several earth knights seemed to have lost their balance and fell to the ground inexplicably.

A guard closest to Paley subconsciously pressed his hand on the handle of the sword, trying to pull out the knight's sword from his waist, but before he could use his strength, the hand holding the sword was pressed against the sword. handle.

It was a baby-like palm, but it conveyed an irresistible force.

The guard guarding Paley's side was a master at the peak of the earth rank, and it was not a problem to control a charging bison with his bare hands, but he couldn't even lift his hands at this time.

"Stop!"

Just when this earth-level guard wanted to mobilize his fighting spirit for a fight.

Paley finally spoke to stop the two sides.

"My lord, what does this mean?"
