Become a knight starting with synthesized entries.

The screams echoed through the church. Without turning his head, Luo An walked through the corridor and into the church hall. He was still dozens of steps away from the church door when he ran into a group of fully armed guards.

"A knight?!" The guard's gaze swept over Roan's armor, utterly astonished. A knight, daring to trespass into a church?! Could he be a cultist?!

They dared not approach, and could only aim their crossbows at Luo An from a distance.

The head of the guards cautiously stepped forward and called out across the corridor:

"Your Excellency Knight, attacking a church is an extremely serious crime in the kingdom! Please lay down your weapons, and under the watchful eye of the Great Mother, I assure you, we can talk about this."

As soon as he finished speaking, a squad of guards rushed out of the corridor behind Luo An, raising their crossbows and aiming them at him.

Such a narrow corridor, with crossbows aimed at it, would make even the most powerful knight wary.

The captain of the guards, now even more confident, said, "Don't move, sir. We suspect you're a cultist. No matter how strong you are, you can't possibly break through a defense line made up of a novice knight and crossbow bolts. Surrender."

Luo An frowned slightly. He had the Silver Armor, which made him unafraid of even the bites of dragons, let alone mere crossbow bolts.

However, breaking through the lines would inevitably result in injuries to the guards.

"I am not a cultist," Roan said. "And I have no intention of being your enemy, so please step aside."

The guards looked at each other but did not move aside.

Luo An let out a soft breath. He had always had a good impression of the church of the Great Mother, and if he could, he didn't want to resort to violence.

But there was no other way. Luo An didn't want to waste any more time.

Luo An slowly walked towards the church entrance.

The captain of the guards frowned, already certain that Luo An was a cultist.

He slowly raised his hand, and the guards immediately raised their crossbows and put their hands on the triggers.

"emission!"

At the same time, Luo An also raised his hand and softly chanted, "Miracle."

[Miracle: Shock!]

In addition, [Mercy: Five times the increase.]

A golden light suddenly shone in front of Luo An, blocking the dense barrage of crossbow bolts.

The guards were stunned. They recognized it as a miracle of the Great Mother. The force that should have been a gentle push would have at most sent the person flying, but Luo An's [Shock] had actually blocked the crossbow bolt!

Before they could think it through, Luo An suddenly sprang into action and, in less than a breath, had already broken through the defensive line.

The charging force of a fully armed knight was no less than that of a warhorse. The captain of the guard reacted the fastest, immediately blocking the defensive line, but unexpectedly, he raised his longsword and collided with Roan.

In just one round, the captain of the guard was violently pushed away by [Shock] and fell to the ground. Although he was in a sorry state, at least he wasn't smashed into a pulp on the spot.

Luo An had arrived at the church entrance. He removed his gauntlets, made a ring with his thumb and forefinger, put it in his mouth, and took a deep breath.

The whistling, amplified by Roan's heavy breathing, echoed in the air above the church.

Soon, the loud cry of a griffin echoed from high above. The furry ball was on its way.

While waiting for the griffins, Roan arrived and glanced back at the captain of the guards.

The poor thing lay on the ground groaning.

No matter how much Roan tried to control his strength, armor was still armor, and even with the power of the [Shock], it was still something a gap knight could not withstand.

"I'm sorry," Luo An said.

The captain of the guard looked at Roan in disbelief. "You...you can use Mother's miracle?"

"As a fellow knight serving your mother, why did you attack the church? Have you fallen?"

"..." Luo An looked away. At the same time, the huge griffin suddenly landed beside Luo An and swept its disdain over the astonished crowd.

Not only the guards, but everyone was stunned, forgetting how to escape.

What a huge and majestic monster this is! Why would it appear in a town?

Before the crowd could panic, Roan leaped onto his griffin and said, "Let's go."

The griffin slowly flapped its wings, creating a whirlwind that made everyone lose their balance and fall to the ground, watching in horror as the enormous beast soared into the night and disappeared.

Only then did they realize with shock that the magical beast had actually been tamed by the knight!

Who is that knight?!

.......

The night sky was incredibly cold, and the fierce wind made it impossible for Luo An to open his eyes.

The griffin's full-speed flight was terrifying; the wind lashed against the armor with a crackling sound that even Roan found unbearable.

Luo An showed no sign of stopping, but urged the griffin once again, "Faster, faster!"

At this moment, Luo An had only one question.

Lord Levi, have you truly fallen so low as to become an inhuman being like Grog?

How could that be? Levi is a knight known for his "nobility," how could he be tempted by the power of a mere dragon?

Luo An suddenly realized that perhaps Afu was lying to him. Luo An had no idea what the "Black God" was. It was all just that woman talking nonsense.

Yes, that must be it. Luo An's tightly furrowed brows relaxed, and his breathing became lighter.

The scenery on the ground flashed by, passing through the plains and gradually becoming undulating, with mountains already at our feet.

I can see the lights of the fortress.

The fortress guards also noticed the monsters flying rapidly through the sky.

They sounded their horns and were fully armed, only to suddenly discover that it was Roan's griffins approaching. Before the griffins could land, Roan had already leaped from mid-air onto the high wall of the fortress.

"Where is Lord Levi?" Roan asked quickly.

"Lord Luo An?!" The guards recognized the newcomer. "What happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Where is Lord Levi?" Roan repeated. "Where? On patrol, in camp? In a village?"

The guard quickly shook his head. "Lord Roan, Lord Levi should be here, in the captain of the guard's tent. Should I report your return to Lord Levi?"

Hearing that Levi was in the tent, Luo An breathed a sigh of relief. That woman had indeed been lying to Luo An.

Luo An shook his head.

"I'm sorry, I have something urgent to attend to. I apologize for disturbing you."

I'll go there myself.

After saying that, Luo An quickly left.

As he was about to walk toward the camp, Luo An suddenly stopped in his tracks.

The woman said that Lord Levi was not in the camp.

Lord Levi should be in the warehouse.

Luo An hesitated for a moment, then changed direction and headed towards the barn.

It's not that he doesn't trust Lord Levi.

However, if Levi wasn't in the barn, it was just a false alarm for Roan. He would only need to apologize to Levi and accept the punishment for disturbing the fortress.

If Lord Levi is in the barn.

What kind of scene was that?

That mighty knight, kneeling on the ground, devoured the dragon's flesh like a wild dog?!

Like Grog, they were transformed into non-human beings.

Just imagining this scene made Luo An grit his teeth slightly, and his steps slowed down considerably.

Before even reaching the barn, one could see from afar that the barn gates were wide open, with no guards patrolling and no firelight.
