Heart of the Castle

Chapter 660
"Get out of here!"

A roar with a thick orc accent woke Griffin Lord Leviston from his deep, dreamless sleep.

"You weak little shrimps, don't quarrel with me. The lord of the big bird told me a long time ago that I am the biggest Wakao in Westwind County, and I am the only one who can speak well in that place." Si's bloody and roaring voice continued to roar, and the sound still seemed like thunder after penetrating through several floors.Li Wei shook his head with a wry smile, then looked at the gray morning light streaming into the room from the window, and reluctantly got up from the warm bed.

This is already the fifth day since Li Wei returned to Greencastle, or in other words, the day after the triumphant return of the Northern County cavalry.Li Wei still remembers that exciting and passionate noon, when Flandara's golden face stood high in the middle of the sky, and the warm and brilliant sunlight sprinkled the earth, and three thousand steel men and iron horses lined up neatly in a wedge-shaped phalanx, The armor and weapons reflected the sunlight, and they were slowly moving towards the Green Castle from the horizon. The ground seemed to be trembling under the trampling of heavy horseshoes, and smoke and dust rose up in streaks, straight to the sky.

At the front of the phalanx were knights wearing heavy armor and fluttering gorgeous cloaks behind their shoulders. Behind them were the same number of banners painted with various family crests, half of which were based on golden griffin banners. Made with slight changes.These flags belonged to the champion knights of the Griffon Knights, the strongest alchemy unit produced after the third advancement of the Castle Heart.Among the other banners, the most conspicuous ones should have been the flame wheel of Willpus, the first branch leader of the Griffon Knights, and the steel giant fist of the third branch leader, Dragunson. However, standing in the main building of the Green Castle Li Wei on the rooftop found that there was actually a flag in front of the two flags. He then put down the bronze looking glass in his hand and frowned strangely.

"Smart mouth, that banner at the forefront... which knight's family crest is it?"

The big crow with black feathers standing on Li Wei's shoulder turned its head and blinked its ruby-like eyes, making a look of serious consideration. "I know, I know, hoops, hoops."

"From the king's capital, Fermeyer, to the northern leaders, which family uses the "iron circle" as a family badge?" Li Wei searched in his memory, and found that he never had any impression of it. "What's more, this flag is still in front of Wilpus and Dragunson. If Lord Cedric didn't personally go out because of the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, the flag of the white wolf's head could be placed in this position."

With such doubts in mind, Li Wei stepped down from the rooftop and joined Princess Fleisher and others who were waiting beside the city gate, and then dozens of court attendants on both sides raised their horns and blew a group of powerful notes.This also means that the triumphal ceremony has officially begun. With the creaking sound of the winch, the huge suspension bridge of the Green Castle fell, and the two bronze gates slowly opened under the strong arms of several shirtless Hercules.

The brigade of cavalry began to slow down half a kilometer away from the gate of the Green Castle. Well-trained horses and excellent riding skills cooperated with each other to ensure that the formation did not undergo major deformation.The knights continued to move forward, approaching the Green Castle like a giant steel fist, and then reined in together, making all the horses under their crotches neigh and jump up on their front feet, their neat postures seemed to pay tribute to Li Wei and others Same.

Due to the short distance, Li Wei could already clearly see the knights in the front row. Wilps in fiery red armor and Dragosson in gray blue armor were each riding a tall and strong horse. The battle horse, the visor on the helmet was put down, and the awe-inspiring posture was like a follower of the God of War Balud.Among them was a strange knight in silver-white armor, with the flag flying behind his back... above the flag...

Li Wei suddenly felt an indescribable feeling, a mixture of surprise, joy and disbelief, which stirred up a huge wave in his chest.The Griffon Lord stared at the flag. The big crow's description was really correct. The badge did indeed look like an iron ring—a ring of steel composed of twelve sharp swords!

The Iron Ring badge of the Ansair family!
The silver-armored knight rode forward slowly alone, the war horse walked gracefully and calmly, and the gorgeous and exaggerated thin-thorned sword scabbard beat the saddle rhythmically.The knight's armor is very elegant in shape, not as intimidating as the usual armor. The surface is carved with smooth lines in silver, with a helmet in the shape of a bird peck and a helmet with countless feather textures embroidered with silver silk. Cloak, the whole person looks like a swan carved from steel.

Li Wei stared dumbfounded at the swift dismount of the silver armored knight, and then gave a knight's boob salute in an elegant manner, and the silver iron gauntlet clanged on the breastplate of the same color, "To Fleischer Her Royal Highness pays homage to Her Majesty Leviston, the guardian of the entire kingdom." The silver armored knight's voice seemed a bit dull through the gap in the visor, but it could still hear a bit of softness unique to women. "I'm Denise Ansair, the half-sister of 'Sword Dancer' Ricardo, Earl of Ansair, Sheriff of the North."

"Denise Ansair?" Li Wei couldn't help showing a surprised expression, turned his head to look at Princess Frasier standing beside her, and found a puzzled look in her eyes. "Knight Denise...Miss, with all due respect, I seem to have never heard of Earl Ansair having a younger sister?"

"Your Excellency, Guardian of the Realm, it's because my mother's status is humble enough for my father to declare to the world." The female knight who called herself Denise Ansair replied in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.

"Master Li Wei, the heads of many ancient noble families were suave and suave when they were young." Mr. Dish's voice came from behind, with the taste of a senior noble housekeeper, "These things make Denise It is best not to talk about the sad things of the countess here."

Mr. Dish's statement is reasonable, but Levi always feels that there must be something he doesn't know about it, but no matter what the reason is, this kind of topic is really not suitable to talk about when welcoming the triumphant return of the army.So the griffin lord returned the salute to Countess Denise, then drew his sword out of its sheath, and raised it high towards the hundreds of knights in front of him, and then the silver-white fighting spirit blazed violently on the blade.

Princess Fleischer also made the same action. Her fighting spirit is not the golden fighting spirit handed down by Arthur's royal family, but the sacrificial fighting spirit in the same line as Levi. The silver-white flame of the same intensity is on the long sword in the princess's hand. It burned up, and then crossed with the knight sword in Li Wei's hand in the air.

"Welcome back, the invincible knights of the Kingdom of Arthur! Welcome back, the loyal and brave soldiers of the Kingdom of Arthur!" Princess Fletcher raised her voice and shouted, "Long live the Kingdom of Arthur!"

"Long live the Kingdom of Arthur!" Li Wei's voice followed up, followed by dozens of voices shouting at the same time on both sides of the gate of the Green Castle, "Long live the Kingdom of Arthur! Long live! Long live!"

Tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city shouted in unison, and thousands of cavalry outside the city responded sharply. At that moment, the ancient Green Castle seemed to be shaken by the roaring shouts.It is a high-pitched sound that can make cowards brave, stir the blood of the weak, and boost the morale of soldiers. The shouts of thousands of people merge into a hymn, which hovers between the high walls and spiers of Green Castle, and even echoes in the Under the northern sky.

This was the first time such a big victory had been achieved since the fall of the royal capital Fermeyer.

Even though the whole night has passed, when recalling this scene, Li Wei's eyes still flicker, and it is almost difficult to contain the intense emotions in his heart. The remnants of the demons that will sweep through West Wind County may even encircle the king's capital, Fermeyer. By that time...

"No, no." Li Wei shook the idea of ​​quick success out of his mind, and then warned himself in a low voice, "What the Kingdom of Arthur needs now is not a victory that has nothing to do with the overall situation, but to accumulate strength, Wait and find ways to create opportunities in order to turn the tide of battle and secure the final victory in one fell swoop."

The door was knocked suddenly, and the voice sounded very rhythmic and very polite. "Master Levi," Mr. Dish's familiar voice sounded later, "Countess Denise Ansair is here to see you."

"Housekeeper Frederick, please let her wait a moment, give me 2 minutes." Li Wei smoothed the traces of a night's sleep on his shirt as he spoke, then grabbed the saber belt hanging by the wall and tied it around his waist between.

When Li Wei opened the door, Mr. Dish, who was dressed as an aristocratic butler, smiled at him, and then took a step to the side, revealing the figure of Countess Denise in silver-white armor.Li Wei glanced at the carved wooden cane held by the old housekeeper with slightly surprised eyes, and then nodded to Countess Denise, "My lord, I have kept you waiting, please come in."

Even though it was not a time of war, Countess Denise was still fully armed, and she didn't even take off the visor on her helmet.After entering the room, the countess's first words smacked of accusation. "Your Excellency, Guardian of the Kingdom of Arthur, don't you feel a little rude just now?"

Li Wei's expression seemed a little hesitant, "The hand kiss... that is a courtesy that can only be given to noble ladies, with all due respect... Lord Denise Ansair, I have some doubts about your identity... He paused, shook his head and continued, "No, it's not suspicion. Although I don't know what's going on, but... Earl Ansair, why are you pretending to be your non-existent sister?" "

"Your Excellency Leviston?" Countess Denise seemed quite puzzled, "What are you talking about, why am I a little confused?"

Li Wei pointed to his eyes that were glowing with a strange light, "That... Lord Earl Ansair, you cannot hide your identity from my eyes."

In the field of vision of the probing technique, Li Wei had already discovered the true identity of Countess Denise. If he hadn't experienced many surprising things, he might not be able to hold back just now, and jumped up in surprise.

"Tch!" Countess Denise uttered a voice of disappointment and annoyance, and then she took off the helmet shaped like a bird of prey, and her long pale golden hair immediately spread over her shoulders, revealing a Zhang's facial features are seven to eight points similar to the sword dancer, but it looks like a female face with both beauty and heroic temperament. "It's really boring. Using probing techniques to find out my true identity is simply cheating at the game table, Your Excellency Levi Stone."

Although the true identity of the so-called Countess Denise has been obtained through probing techniques, Li Wei still feels dizzy after being personally admitted by Earl Ansair. "Earl Ansair, benevolent Father God...how...how did you become a woman?"

"Hmph, I have to ask this great old alchemist!" Earl Ansair's tone could be heard to be dissatisfied, but the degree was not too strong. "Of course, Your Excellency Levi, I am still very pleased to be resurrected as an alchemy hero by Castle Heart, even if I need to squat down for convenience in the future."

Levi didn't know what to say. His mouth opened and closed a few times like a fish out of water for too long, and finally he turned his gaze to the old magician, "Well...Mr. Dish, what's going on? Thing...how did Earl Ansair become like this..."

Mr. Dish cleared his throat pretending to be serious, "Master Levi, this is just a small accident. Lord Ansair was unfortunately defeated in a duel and died in the battle at St. White Rock Castle. Originally, the soul was supposed to dissipate, and there was no chance to reshape the body in the heart of the castle. But Her Royal Highness Princess Fleisher happened to be wearing a necklace inlaid with soul gems, which I made for some people. Something that can temporarily preserve the soul. Because this thing seems to be a lucky talisman, before the duel, Princess Fleischer gave it to Earl Ansair to wear it, so by coincidence his soul Save it."

"Of course, I would also like to thank Her Highness the Crow Queen, Siegfried, who is obsessed with all shiny things." Earl Ansair added with a half-smile, "If it wasn't for her wearing it around my neck If I took the pendant on my chest away, my soul must still be imprisoned in the ruins of the Holy White Stone Fortress, or it must have been destroyed by demons along with the pendant."

"So that's the case." Li Wei sighed deeply, "Mr. Dish, so it is impossible for His Majesty the Dragon King to use the Castle Heart to resurrect?"

"The soul of Dragon King Fidel Adams should have completely dissipated. Even if there are still some fragments full of resentment and resentment, they may have fallen into the hands of a certain demon who occupied the capital of King Fermeyer." Di Mr. Shi's face showed a little solemnity, "Master Li Wei, I can't say for sure that in the future on the battlefield, we will definitely not encounter death knights or demon guards made from the soul fragments of His Majesty the Dragon King. To play with the soul is just a demon and a demon guard." The specialty of the dead."

"But I can guarantee that what we will meet will be a male King Arthur XII." Earl Ansair complained sarcastically.

"Lord Ansair, you should be thankful that the Hall of Valor in the Heart of the Castle resurrected you as an alchemy hero. This is the least costly way of resurrection I know." Mr. Dish curled his lips and said, "You know, The demon guard is just a short-lived killing weapon created by the demon lords, and does not have any gender characteristics. As for the death knight, although it still retains the shape of a certain organ, it is actually useless, unless it is cursed Only by being promoted to the Scourge Knight like Shi Hei Ri can we restore that ability."

"At least there is a 'possibility'!" Earl Ansair curled up a lock of his pale golden hair with his fingers, "Now I don't even have this 'possibility'."

Levi frowned, and questioned the old magician through telepathic communication, "Mr. Dish, did you really tamper with Earl Ansair when he was resurrected? In order to prevent him from proving himself With his identity, he became the sheriff of the northern border county and the important minister of the kingdom again?"

"Master Li Wei, how could I have such vicious thoughts?" During the telepathic communication, Mr. Dish's tone seemed a little helpless, "All the alchemy heroes resurrected through the Hall of Valor in the Heart of the Castle will come with The blood oath of the Lord's soul is never in danger of betrayal, so there is no need to do anything. The reason why Earl Ansair was resurrected as a female alchemy hero... is, well, the heart of the castle. There is no template for a male alchemy hero in the Hall of Valor, if his body is still there, it can be copied directly, but that body may have decayed for a long time."

"Mr. Dish, why is there no template for a male alchemy hero in the Hall of Valor?" Levi was still a little puzzled, "Is it harder to make a template for a male hero than a female?"

"Of course...difficult." Mr. Dish's face flashed an imperceptible embarrassment, and the voice of the answer was almost hard for Levi to hear. "Who would like to spend time studying men's bodies!"
