Chapter 274: The Way of Great Love, Pegasus Silver Spear

Summer is fading, the weather is getting cooler, and the maple trees in the courtyard are dyed a layer of fiery red.

In the manor, the reeds on the river bank turned golden and swayed in the wind.

Yeats sat at a picnic table covered with white linen, sipping mulled apple wine and looking through a horse show schedule.

Gray took a big bite of chestnut pie drizzled with honey, opened her amber eyes wide like a hamster, and said vaguely: "So, the king asked you to participate in the equestrian competition, and as for the matter of wiping out the Scarlet Society, you don't need to bother with it?"

"This is not something I can be solely responsible for."

Yeats said calmly:

"I am only responsible for making plans and tracking down clues. In the end, it is still up to Your Majesty to make the final decision and order the execution."

Currently, the Lionheart King is recuperating and preparing to lure the Blood Spider Lord into the encirclement net at Lake Ness. To this end, he did not hesitate to let Colin carry false information and pretend to surrender to the Blood Spider Lord in order to lure her into the trap.

The task of eradicating the Scarlet Society would not be undertaken by the Lionheart himself, nor was it given to Yeats. According to what the king had revealed to Yeats, this important task fell on the shoulders of Marshal William, the director of the royal horse and a veteran of two dynasties.

William's story is legendary.

From a humble commoner, he rose to fame in tournaments, was knighted, and finally climbed to the position of marshal. His personal strength was only five rings, but his command ability was outstanding. He once followed the Lionheart King to cross the mountains and raid the North.

Being able to reveal such important information to Ye Zhi, Ye Zhi knew in his heart that his position in the heart of the Lionheart King had already reached the level of a confidant.

Although his resume is very young compared to those of the old dignitaries, his strength is there, and he has bet on the royal family and is appreciated by the king.

Once the internal threat of Lord Blood Spider is resolved, it won't be ridiculous to reward him based on his merits and confer him the title of Duke!

Although the king only has the power to grant titles, Yeats himself has to figure out how to control the dukedom.

However, once he becomes a duke, his territory, taxes, wealth and resources will all be qualitatively improved! In the future, when he breaks openly with the Holy See, the influence and voice of a duke will be dozens of times greater than that of a baron.

Yeats imagined the future for a while, coughed lightly, and regained his mind, and concluded: "In general, I have been idle recently, so the king sent me to participate in the equestrian competition."

"But you have already made many contributions." Gray said with a smile, "Once the vampires are pacified, the king will definitely not treat you unfairly!"

"I hope so." Yeats always expected the worst.

Besides, Lake Ness was the place chosen by the Goddess of the Mist to deify Yeats.

Yeats had mixed feelings.

Daisy wouldn't come out to mess things up at this critical moment, would she? "My Lord, Baron Clan and his friend, the bard Perron, are here to visit us," the butler in a tuxedo said respectfully.

Ye Zhi's eyes lit up.

The culprit in the South Shore disappearances has been found, and Perron has been cleared of suspicion.

Peren, who was originally wronged and forced to stay in prison, has now been released with great difficulty. It is a cause for celebration.

"Please invite them both in."

The man in the deerstalker hat and the pipe took off his hat and saluted, while the elf in the bright red robe pressed his hands to his chest and bowed.

Ye Zhi smiled and nodded, saying, "Please take a seat, and try the mulled wine I made myself."

"Don't bother. I'll be gone in a moment." Crane said with a smile, "This trip is mainly because Perron wants to express his gratitude to you... Without you, he would have to stay in prison for a long time."

Yeats looked at Perron and was surprised to find that he seemed like a different person.

His originally frivolous and impetuous temperament unexpectedly became somewhat calm, his deep blue eyes showed an attentive listening attitude, and from time to time he showed a thoughtful look.

"Perren, you weren't abused in prison, were you?" Yeats asked hesitantly.

Perron shook his head. "Thanks to your advance notice to Baron Clan, the prison has prepared a single room for me. There is also a simple wooden bookcase in the room with some old books on it..."

Perron paused for a moment and said meaningfully: "I benefited a lot from being in prison!"

Ye Zhi was stunned, thinking, boy, you didn't spend a few days in jail and then directly gained enlightenment in Longchang, right? "What have you learned? Can you share some of it so that we can learn from it?" Kelan asked with interest.

The red-robed elf's pointed ears trembled, and he looked at the two people and said thoughtfully, "Do you two really want to listen?"

Yeats and Crane nodded simultaneously.

"Well, I'll just chat briefly--"

Perron cleared his throat, looked at the two of them seriously, and asked the ultimate question: "First of all, I would like to ask, what is love?"

Ye Zhi was stunned, and Cran also looked a little dazed.

"Lust, passion, marriage, family, reproduction...are these the essence of love?"

Perron shook his head. "I don't think so. The so-called love is to make oneself complete. It is to gain resonance and integration from others, and it is the union of soul and flesh."

Ye Zhi: “…”

"What the hell is he talking about?" asked the drill in Yeats's mind.

Ye Zhi thought to himself, "I don't know. It sounds like something a believer in the god of love would say."

Perron continued, “I couldn’t find a partner to talk to in prison, and I had no place to place my ocean-like love… Later, I suddenly remembered the saying ‘God so loves the world’.”

Perun said to himself: "Am I a human being? Of course I am. As long as I love myself, can I become a god?"

Yeats and Crane opened their mouths.

"Of course!" Perron's eyes were burning as he made a judgment, "As long as we love ourselves, everyone is his own God, so the essence of great love is self-love - I am great love!"

Ye Zhi: “…”

You, discharged!

The autumn wind brought a cool breeze, and a silky glow floated in the sky above the fiery red maple forest. The red glow came from afar, floated above Peren's head, and slowly fell into his body.

Yeats could sense that the divinity of the god of love in the realm of creation had great love for Perron and it was constantly flowing into his soul.

Obviously he is not the chosen one of the God of Love. The divinity of the God of Love in his field is comparable to the divinity of art in Yeats' field! Yeats looked up at the sky.

Oh no, after spending time in jail, Perun finally gained enlightenment!

Seeing that Perron still wanted to talk, Yeats coughed and said, "Let me interrupt your long speech, this elf gentleman with boundless love... I want to ask, has the second volume of "The Travels of the Emperor of Lorraine" been completed?"

Perron's eyes lit up, and he smiled kindly to his fellow book lovers, nodding his head and saying, "I have nothing else to do in prison, so I can only concentrate on writing books. So not only the second volume, but even the third volume has been completed!"

"Lord Yeats, you have helped me a lot. When I organize the manuscript and bind it into a book, I will be the first to ask for your comments!"

Yeats felt a little emotional.

It seems that the creative efficiency in prison is amazing.

Perhaps, the author should go to jail for a while, maybe he can get some amazing results! (Wrong)

Volumes 2 and 3 of "The Journey to Lorraine" were the gift Yeats prepared to give to the King of the Wild Hunt.

My godfather has nothing else in his life except this little hobby!

* Crane and Yeats both received a reward from the king. Neither of them asked the other about the specific content of the reward. Crane also sent a set of antique silver as a thank you for Yeats' life-saving grace.

Among this set of antiques, there is a magic item called [Sapphire Silver Cup]. The gold-plated silver cup is engraved with the image of the god of wine and inlaid with a crystal sapphire.

Dionysus, the god of wine, comedy and tragedy, are said to have developed from the Dionysus sacrificial rituals. He is in charge of carnival, fruit, brewing, drama, etc.

However, like most gods of the Old Age, Dionysus also disappeared. The wine that was originally used for carnivals has become the holy wine on the communion table. The utensils and treasures related to Dionysus are often passed down from the Old Age.

The quality of the [Sapphire Silver Cup] is not outstanding, it can only be rated as rare, but it is related to the god of wine and has special value.

The god of wine can use wine to restore magic power and create miracles. The function of the [Sapphire Silver Cup] is no exception. Through the energy contained in the sapphire, the wine in the cup can have the effect of restoring magic power.

This wine glass complements Yeats's blessed 'poetic mead', and Yeats gladly accepted it.

afternoon.

The king ordered the messenger to deliver the [Pegasus Potion] to Silver Birch Manor and invited Ye Zhi to go to the Lion Forest.

Ye Zhi knew that this was King Lionheart's plan for the Sun Fighting Lion to teach him the "Fighting Skill: Sun Arrow".

The divinity of light has something in common with the divinity of the sun, and can help Ye Zhi quickly master this fighting skill.

Before setting off, Ye Zhi first added the Pegasus potion into the fodder and let Radish eat it.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

The last event of the competition was the equestrian event, in which the mount was particularly important. The Roland purebred horse was the most famous warhorse, but the bloodline of the Roland warhorse destined it to become a commander-level monster at most.

However, the [Pegasus Potion] can give Radish a trace of Pegasus blood, which not only helps Radish to break through the fourth ring, but also fits in with the blessing [Pegasus Wings] it received from the Black Knight.

Participating in equestrian competitions with a king-level warhorse mount will make Yeats invincible!

The Pegasus potion was so potent that it would make the warhorse feel as if its skin and flesh were torn apart, but Yeats neutralized its properties with the Fountain of Minerva, allowing Radish to digest the energy easily.

On the green grass, the snow-white warhorse stood up, neighing towards the sky, with white wings growing on both sides.

In the manor, birds flew away in fright, insects became silent, and the king-level pressure spread in all directions.

Yeats nodded with satisfaction.

Radish's promotion allowed it to master a common combat skill called 'War Trampling' and a spell called [Pegasus Silver Spear].

This spell can transform a warhorse into a sharp silver spear and charge forward. It was created by the [Silver Unicorn]. The disadvantage is that it cannot carry anyone on its back when casting this spell.

Yeats immediately had Radish and Snow Leopard compete in the courtyard.

The momentum of Radish's charge was even more fierce than the snow leopard's pounce. He used his [Pegasus Silver Spear] to knock the snow leopard directly into the lake. It was only when the snow leopard activated its "elemental true form" Winter Soul that he was able to save some face.

Ye Zhi comforted the angry and burnt-haired Luobo, and was very satisfied with the upgraded combat power of her mount.

Whether it is Pegasus, Pegasus or Unicorn, even the ancestor of the sacred beast [Silver Unicorn] can be traced back to a two-winged Pegasus named [Pegasus God]. It is said that this Pegasus is a symbol of hope and has entered the realm of gods.

Carrot is developing towards the template of Pegasus. If he grows into an emperor-level magical beast like the Fiery Sun Fighting Lion, it will only take a few hours to travel between Morning Frost Ridge and Lundu City. Traveling thousands of miles a day will not be a problem at all!

Afterwards, Yeats rode on Radish, entered the palace and came to the Lion Forest.

When King Lionheart saw Ye Zhi coming, he summoned the Sun Fighting Lion.

After its size was reduced, it was no different from that of an ordinary lion, but the royal aura it exuded was genuine.

After a brief instruction, the Lionheart King watched from the sidelines as the Fiery Sun Fighting Lion began to teach him combat skills.

"Hold your longbow steady."

Telepathy rang directly in Ye Zhi's mind.

Ye Zhi looked into the majestic eyes of the Fiery Sun Fighting Lion, nodded slowly, and then took out the Master's Longbow from the space bag.

This longbow is worthy of being made by a master craftsman. The bow body is made of yew wood with fine texture. It has been carefully ground and polished, and feels warm to the touch. The bowstring is woven from flying dragon tendons.

Yeats's archery skills were outstanding, and he knew the pros and cons of longbows. Holding the master's longbow, he felt a sense of ease and comfort, just like a swordsman getting a sharp sword that suits his hand.

"The difficulty of the Fiery Sun Arrow lies in how to draw the bow while preventing the condensed power of the Fiery Sun from dissipating..." The Fiery Sun Fighting Lion began to explain the steps.

The Sun God has died, and it is quite difficult to learn the spells of his school. The Fiery Sun Fighting Lion did not shy away from this fact and said frankly that if Ye Zhi could not learn it, it would be helpless.

However, Ye Zhi did not understand at all some of the "difficulties" mentioned by Lieyang Doushi.

Yeats overcame many of the difficulties and bottlenecks that the book focuses on without any hesitation.

In order to save the face of Lieyang Fighting Lion, Ye Zhi had to pretend to be "in trouble".

After all, the divine power of light can greatly speed up the learning efficiency of the "Arrow of the Blazing Sun", and even the Blazing Sun Fighting Lion would not have expected that under the blessing of the Silver Oak Sword, Ye Zhi's divine power of light is quite full! After two hours, he could no longer pretend, and Ye Zhi said frankly: "I have learned it."

Lieyang Doushi looked down upon Ye Zhi and said coldly, "If you rush in too fast, you won't learn anything."

"Then let me show you how to do it."

After saying this, Ye Zhi drew his bow and arrow, held his breath, and drew the bow deeply.

As his bowstring was pulled in a circle, a magic arrow formed by flames gradually took shape on the longbow!

The Fiery Sun Fighting Lion and the Lionheart King let out a light exclamation at the same time.

Suddenly.

The arrow of the scorching sun drew a dazzling trajectory, carrying a surging flame, and blasted through a huge rock with a "bang".

Gravel flew and smoke billowed! The eyes of the Fiery Sun Fighting Lion flickered slightly. Ye Zhi mastered the fighting skills at an amazing speed, which was beyond its expectation! A trace of surprise also flashed in the eyes of the Lionheart King. He nodded and smiled, praising him generously: "Even if Hercules, who shot the Hydra, were alive, he might not be able to learn faster than you! Ye Zhi, you did a great job!"

Ye Zhi took a deep breath to calm the bright divinity surging in his body.

This fighting skill should have used the power of the scorching sun, but Ye Zhi used the divinity of light as a substitute, and its power increased instead of decreased, while the consumption of mana was also huge.

However, the power of this combat skill is far greater than the "Unicorn Spear"! Unfortunately, with the current strength of his soul, he is not enough to release the "Arrow of the Blazing Sun" and the "Blessing: Ten Thousand Arrows" at the same time -

That's not just a rain of arrows, but a rain of arrows enchanted with the flames, which is more than twice as powerful! The Lionheart King was a little curious about how Ye Zhi would look when he encountered a problem and racked his brains. After all, Ye Zhi has always been good at strategizing, and teaching him the Arrows of the Blazing Sun is somewhat like testing him.

Unexpectedly, learning the 'Arrow of the Blazing Sun' was not difficult at all for Ye Zhi. In just a few hours, Ye Zhi mastered this fighting skill with ease, which really made the Lionheart King feel a little emotional.

"How long did it take me to learn the Blazing Sun Arrow? Haha, it seems that I am not as good as the younger generation..."

The Lionheart shook his head in silence, beckoned Ye Zhi to come to him, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow is the equestrian competition. I am busy with trivial matters and cannot attend, but I am looking forward to the news of your victory... Please don't let me down."

Ye Zhi nodded, and then asked, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask, has Knight Colin set off yet?"

The Lionheart King closed his eyes slightly, and without saying anything, he whispered: "I have done everything I can... When the time comes to close the net, I will let you know."

Ye Zhi did not ask any further questions and thought to himself, in that case, I will set out to participate in the equestrian competition tomorrow.

If you can win the championship, your riding skills will be improved and it will also help increase your personal prestige.

Winning three championships in a row in the three major events of the competition was an achievement that was enough to shock the whole country.

Although prestige is intangible, it is indeed a tangible asset. A hero who is famous in the continent will be respected wherever he travels in the seven seas!

Zuanya said: "I heard that the favorite offering of the sea god is the horse, but the horse can't walk in the sea, so the seahorse was created."

Ye Zhi: "...It's too cold. Write it down first and tell the Black Knight next time!"
