Chapter 217: Sunset Town and the Bishop (Last month's monthly ticket 1300 plus more)
Sunset Town.
This is a very ordinary town, not very big and not very crowded. The whole town is distributed on both sides along the east-west avenue.
Because it is far from water sources, there are not many good farmlands here, but a horse breeding industry has been developed.
This is also one of the three major horse farms designated by the Raymond family. It has thousands of war horses and is considered a very large horse farm.
Especially the specially bred Warcraft wildebeests are absolutely excellent war horses, with excellent endurance and running speed.
It is also the preferred choice of the Flower Knights.
Unfortunately, this type of magical beast, the wildebeest, is difficult to reproduce and even more difficult to cultivate, so its number has always been limited.
Of course, Sunset Town also has its own special features, because it is oriented east-west and is located on an endless plain.
Every time the sun sets, there is a big sun hanging in the sky, illuminating the world with a golden red, which is very magnificent.
If you add the sound of the herdsmen returning home, thousands of horses galloping, and loud singing, it is really shocking!
It was for this reason that a famous painting called "Sunset Town" was created and spread throughout the capital of the Norman Duchy, Auxerre.
So, the town was renamed Sunset Town!
…
at this time,
The church in Sunset Town.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
The bells rang, and the distant sound spread throughout the town. Countless people walked out of their homes and gathered in the church.
In the church where the statue of the sun god was enshrined, the people sat quietly with respectful and pious expressions.
And on the podium above, an old man in bishop's robes stood there.
He opened the thick book and began to speak: "In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth.
The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep; and the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.”
“God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light!”
“God saw the light, that it was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.”
"God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And there was evening and there was morning—the first day!"
At this moment, his voice seemed to carry a sense of sacredness, like the sound of a huge bell, deafening!
At this moment, the old man's not-so-tall figure was shrouded by the Sun God, and behind the statue of the Sun God, outside the colorful glass, a big sun was setting.
Thus, the light of the great sun enveloped everything, and its sacred and inviolable majesty was deeply engraved in the hearts of every believer.
Of course, after the sermon, everyone who walked out of the temple would receive a bag of rice. It wasn’t much, but everyone went back happily.
It was not until this time that a priest immediately ran to the bishop, carefully supported the old man's arm, and helped him walk down from the bulletin board.
The priest was very young, and although he looked burly, his loose clerical robes held him up.
But he has a childish face and clear eyes, just like a newborn baby, and is curious about everything in the world.
Then he said in confusion: "Teacher Virgil, I don't understand why the notice also requires the distribution of food?
Obviously, other bishops don't do this, so why do we have to pay for it ourselves?"
The old man laughed and pointed at the people who left, saying, "Look, look, aren't they very happy when they leave?
Besides, we were wasting their time by preaching, so we should at least give them some compensation, right?"
"is that so?"
"Most importantly, Sunset Town was in chaos some time ago, and the people here suffered from many bandits, and food was in short supply.
We preach and give them some food, and they will be grateful. When they pray, if they are a little pious, the great Lord of Light will be able to gain more power of faith.
If the Lord of Light is happy, shouldn't we shepherds be happy too?"
After hearing this, the strong young man suddenly understood. The old man said smugly, "This is my exclusive secret. I'm passing it on to you today!"
These two people, one dares to speak, the other dares to listen, and both seem very serious.
But then the strong boy changed his mind and felt puzzled: "Teacher, why do we have to stay in Sunset Town?
It's been days, and no one else dares to ask, so they ask me, when are we going back to Brussels?"
"Go back? What are you going back for? That place is a dangerous place right now. We don't know what's going to happen. We should hide as far away as possible!"
As he said this, the old man bared his teeth with an ugly expression: "Those bastards up there, they have to make me come back at this time?
I think they just want to see me die!"
"But I'm so smart! It's just a tithe, I just have to wait!"
"I won't go back now and meet the new Earl Raymond. I wonder what they can do to me.
I was so desperate that I flipped the table and had to pull their underwear off!"
The old man's words became more and more urgent, even with a hint of roar.
The strong young man was confused, but he still said, "Teacher, teacher, God said that we cannot use bad words, especially among shepherds. We must be loving and humble!"
The old man's expression froze for a moment, then he immediately returned to normal: "Yes, yes, you can't swear."
"That's it, let's go, let's go and pray!"
"Yes, teacher!"
Having said this, the strong young man supported the short and thin old man and disappeared into the church.
…
at the same time,
Luo Yi is also walking on the wind!
“Ouch…”
Feeling the wind passing by his ears, Luo Yi couldn't help but let out a strange laugh. He strode forward and leaped forward, as if carrying a strong wind.
From time to time, he stomped his feet, and the sudden burst of power exploded in the air. His fighting spirit rose, and the ripples were like an eagle flapping its wings.
There was also the sound of an eagle crying.
Every time at this moment, Luo Yi could step into the air and go dozens of meters away, as if he was flying.
Then, just when his strength was fading, he suddenly burst out with strength again, releasing his fighting spirit and stepping on the void with both feet.
Another eagle's shadow flapped its wings, the eagle's cry continued, and then it carried his body forward for dozens of meters.
Until he falls down exhausted again!
To put it simply, the extraordinary combat skill [Eagle Cry] is to treat the air as an object with substantial weight and step on it to achieve the effect of short-distance flight.
Although Luo Yi was already very satisfied with the extraordinary combat skill [Wind Step], who could resist the temptation of flying?
Moreover, after Deep Blue's analysis and optimization, other extraordinary combat skills still consume a lot of fighting spirit and are not worth playing!
Only this [Eagle Step], in addition to fighting spirit, also emphasizes physique and burst, which gives more room for operation.
Then, when you are on the road, you have nothing to do anyway, so you might as well practice more and get familiar with it.
Even Luo Yi himself didn't realize that it was such a pleasant thing to really speed up.
However, he was not proficient in this skill after all. Every few times of Eagle Cry, after crossing two or three hundred meters, he had to land, adjust, and then continue to burst out.
And above the sky, Oliveira also spread his wings, and the fighting spirit around him exploded, directly forming a pair of wings.
Every time he flaps his wings, combined with the [Swift Wind Step], he can fly through the air!
Oliveira could naturally see the extraordinary fighting skills that Loy had, but he was not as greedy as Loy. Instead, he chose one or two and studied them in depth.
Moreover, Oliveira did not choose [Eagle Step] because he thought [Wind Step] was enough.
On the contrary, [Fighting Spirit Transformed into Wings] is more helpful to his battle.
Most importantly, he is different from Roy.
He is a third-level transcendent, and after two rounds of purification of his fighting spirit, he is only one step away from the fourth level.
In short, he has plenty of fighting spirit and can afford to waste it!
Of course, Oliveira was not much better than Loy. He was unfamiliar with the place after all, and had to land to rest from time to time.
Well, if you don’t master the landing posture well, you may fall several times in a row, which is even more embarrassing than Luo Yi.
On the other hand, the Iron Knight Phil Zeke and the Flame Sword Saint Otto were both in the higher sky, looking relaxed and at ease.
The Flame Sword Saint Otto directly spread out a pair of huge wings that were at least ten meters long, and blazing flames swirled around him, like a phoenix reborn from the ashes.
Not to mention the actual combat, the show is really impressive.
As for the Iron Knight Phil Zeke, he is even more plain and simple.
He didn't use [Eagle Step], nor did he use [Fighting Qi Transformed into Wings], and he didn't even release his fighting qi.
Because he was riding his own mount.
A monster with a body length of more than ten meters, a wingspan of at least twenty meters, a head like an eagle, a body like a lion, and huge wings, was flying in the air dragging him.
This is not comparable to those war horses with Warcraft blood!
This is a real monster, a griffin.
Or, to be more common, a griffin!
That’s right, the mount of Iron Knight Phil Zek is a real flying monster, an adult griffin!
The Raymond family put a lot of effort into establishing the Knights of the Lion.
From armor to weapons, from breathing techniques to matching combat skills, they are all the strongest versions determined through practice on the battlefield.
In this version, mounts are naturally the top priority.
The ancestors of the Raymond family did not think of using ordinary war horses to make up the numbers. They even looked down on weaker monsters.
So, the griffin is their choice.
They even found a griffin's nest in the Dome Mountains, tried many things, and finally made a contract.
Any knight who has obtained permission from the Raymond family can accept the test of the griffin. If he passes, he will become a powerful griffin knight!
If you lose, you are lucky to come back alive.
Having said that, I have to add that the younger generation is incompetent.
Anyway, such a good idea, when put into practice, is that in this generation of the family, no one except the Iron Knight can contract a griffin.
The good air organization is now running on the ground.
Back to the story, they traveled day and night for two days, and finally saw another sunset and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of galloping horses at sunset.
It was at this time that they finally stopped being anxious and gathered together. Iron Knight Phil Zeke asked, "My Lord Earl, what should we do?"
"With our lineup and our strength, do we still need to play any tricks?"
"Of course we'll just charge in!"
"Rest first. At night, we will go to see Bishop Virgil Berry.
Let's see what kind of person this is."
Huhu... I don't want to be up so late, really, really, oh!
