"Maenna Linguang."

"The Linguang family?" Hearing this surname, the receptionist couldn't help but raise his head again and glanced at Maenna in surprise. After seeing the face with dark circles like smoky makeup, the interest that had just risen fell again, "It seems that not all members of the Linguang family are like the Knights of Glory."

The veins on Mauna's forehead twitched, but fortunately the character he had cultivated over the past decade allowed him to remain calm and not show any dissatisfaction.

The receptionist then asked, "Have you ever been a competitive knight?"

Ma Enna shook her head decisively: "No."

He has always looked down on the competitive knight industry. Even if he has changed his mind now, it is not against the "knight" part. He can respect those who shed blood and sweat on the field, because they are also using their efforts to exchange for rewards. But if he wants him to recognize that they represent knights, that is still a long way to go. How can he have the experience of participating in knight competitions?

Moreover, let alone a competitive knight, he was not even a war knight. Strictly speaking, his identity back then was a "ranger", a knight who was free and unrestrained, galloping around the world, doing whatever he wanted, and doing justice. The title of the Lightless Knight was purely a false name, neither recognized by the Knights' Association nor recorded by the Supervisory Committee. Only those who had a good relationship with him would still call him that.

And those people, Mainna hadn't seen them for several years or even more than ten years.

No experience in knight competitions... The receptionist wrote this item on the team registration form with embarrassment, and then turned his gaze to Roy again, but Roy still nodded firmly.

The receptionist could only continue to ask:

"If you are from the Linguang family, what is your identity when you team up with the Meteorite Knights? Do you need me to help you register as a long-rider?"

He meant well. It was no secret in the circle that the Linguang family lost their long knight after Knight Yao was exiled. The Knights Association came to remind them more than once to remind them to register their long knights in time, otherwise they might be expelled from their knightly noble status. Although the person responsible for the notification was not the receptionist, he had heard about it.

Since Maenna is here, why not take the opportunity to solve this problem. After all, although he doesn't look like a good fighter, he is a nobleman. Even if he can't fight, it's not a big problem. The Supervisory Council will naturally protect him. Even if he wins, he can't usurp the title of a nobleman. No one would do such a thankless task. Moreover, if he solves this problem that the Knights Association can't solve, I'm afraid he can expect a promotion and a raise in the next performance evaluation.

But to his surprise, Mayenna shook her head without hesitation and rejected his proposal:

"I am just earning a part-time job as a collaborator. There is no need to give me other titles. I don't deserve them."

He no longer coveted those emblems that had been corrupted by money and covered in dust. He was not worthy of them. It was not that he could not bear the weight of the glory, but that such glory was no longer worthy of him, Mauna.

The receptionist obviously didn't understand Mauna's logic. He was here, and it was finally possible to solve a problem that had troubled the Knights' Association for a long time. It wouldn't be bad for you, so why would you refuse? Don't you want me to get promoted?

He opened his mouth and was about to persuade him, but was stopped by a hand. Roy shook his head slightly at him and said, "Just do as he says."

"But......."

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Roy took out a Casimir ruble banknote from his pocket and wanted to hand it to the receptionist. Unexpectedly, the receptionist, who usually took money quickly, waved his hand this time and said, "It's a matter of principle. Knight noble families must have long knights. However, my daughter admires the style of the Meteor Knights. If you can do me the honor of taking a photo with me and signing your name, I'm so happy that I can understand that I forgot about this matter."

Roy was stunned. What a guy, he doesn’t want money but wants an autographed photo?

Of course Roy was happy to do it. How much effort would it take to take a photo and get an autograph? Who wouldn't do it for free?

He took a photo readily, signed his name in beautiful cursive script, and added a message wishing the little girl healthy growth. The receptionist happily took the photo and also readily stamped the official seal of the Knights Association on the team review form.

After leaving the Knights Association, Roy stuffed the review form into Mahenna's pocket and whistled happily: "That's it. You just need to play with me tomorrow."

Mauna looked back at the gate of the Knights Association behind him thoughtfully and asked Roy, "You just gave him the photo? Aren't you afraid that he will sell it or give it to unscrupulous media like Red Wine News to spread rumors about you?"

Roy shook his head, looking carefree: "I'm not afraid."

What rumors could a photo of them spread about him having an affair with another man? The only newspaper that could possibly write such a report now had his internal spy watching over it, so he could rest easy. Moreover, he didn't think the receptionist would hand the photo over to the Federation. After all:

"Do you know how much my autographed photo is worth now, Maenna?"

"How many?"

"On the black market, a photo of them has been sold for 10,000 rubles, but there is still no demand. As for the limited edition photo with signatures and messages, it has not been leaked yet. A conservative estimate is 15,000 or 20,000, right?"

Ma Enna's eyes widened in surprise, which was rare. She looked incredulous and said, "Can a photo be sold for so much?!"

Roy just laughed with a hint of sarcasm and said, "What's the big deal? Candle Knight's is even more expensive. In order to get a photo opportunity, the market price has been driven up to 100,000 or 200,000, not to mention sending blessings. The star effect and brand effect are terrifying. To exaggerate a little, a piece of ice cream can be an assassin!"

If the receptionist was not crazy, she would either give it to her daughter as a souvenir or resell it on the black market. In any case, she would not hand it over.

"I suddenly don't want to play in the game anymore. Just sign 500 autographed photos for me and my payment will be settled." Mainna said with a smile on his face.

Roy shook his head. "Not necessarily. When a piece of bread can be sold for five million, it's not necessarily a good thing. The Business Federation is now launching a doubles match and secretly ordering all knights not to team up with me. Isn't that already targeting me?"

"Just a bunch of corrupt businessmen." Ma Enna said calmly. If he wanted to, he could even rush into the headquarters of the Business Federation and kill them all with one sword.

But what happens after they are sent away? There will always be new people to take their place, and the cycle will repeat. Killing them is meaningless.

Roy has the strength to match him, so why should he care about these things?

He turned his head and looked at Roy, only to find that Roy's face was full of thought, as if he was daydreaming.

In fact, Roy was resolving his phase mission.

[Large-scale mission: Set off, the 23rd Casimir Knight Competition Special Championship! ]

Volume 1: Chapter 53: Facing the Waves, the Knight Leaps Up

[Congratulations to the host for unlocking the special growth module: The Last Knight]

The next second after the system prompt sounded, the image of the module's source was completely different from the previous few times. A huge dizziness rushed into Roy's brain, as if a heavy hammer hit his forehead. In a trance, his consciousness seemed to be out of his body. What he saw was no longer the busy streets of Casimir and the black-clad Manna, but the vast and boundless sea with waves.

The salty sea breeze rushed into Roy's lungs through his nasal cavity, almost choking him to cough. The tide surged, soaking the corners of Roy's clothes, staining them with a strange blue color. He barely opened his eyes from the dizziness, and a huge wave rushed towards Roy, covering the sky and the earth, almost blocking any possible way to escape.

There was no time to react. In the blink of an eye, the waves were already there! Seeing that he was about to be dragged into the deep sea, Roy almost instinctively prepared to punch. However, before he could gather his strength, a flash of cold light passed by, and the huge wave in front of him suddenly turned into a whole split in two before his eyes!

The shadow instantly enveloped his body. Roy raised his head, and the majestic figure of the knight leaping up was reflected in his pupils!

He was wearing full body armor of dark blue without even a single gap on his face, and he exuded a terrifying aura of rejecting everything. He held a huge lance high in his hand, and sat on his beloved horse whose shape had undergone a qualitative change. The last knight pierced through the huge waves and rushed towards the behemoth hidden behind the waves!

At that moment, the sun was setting, and Terra had already welcomed the sunset. At that moment, the sea was surging, and the last knight was moving forward. At that moment, just like the close-up of the most magnificent moment in the movie, Roy's ears were silent, the entire ocean was silent, and the world was silent, as if everyone was holding their breath, looking forward to this final moment of confrontation!

The next second, the knight's spear suddenly hit another wave that rose vertically. Roy's sight was also blocked by the water wall. The whole world was still quiet and silent.

Only a distant call suddenly came to Roy's ears:

"Luo...?"

"Roy?"

"Master!" "Mr. Roy! Wake up!"

My mind suddenly went blank, and everything I just witnessed seemed to be pulled further and further away in the album of memory like an old gray photo, and finally frozen in a stunning glimpse of the last knight as he leaped up.

Did he seem to take one last look at himself? This thought flashed through Roy's mind, but soon, the reminder sound in his mind and the call of the person next to him woke Roy up from his trance.

[You are the only one on the field, the only one on the list, the only one in the Grand Knight Leader, the only one in Casimir, the only one on this land! You are the real lone knight, your enemy is the sea, your enemy is the sky, your enemy is the land you stand on! The last knight, free yourself from oppression, bondage and death, at the cost of abandoning "everything", leap towards "everything"! ]

Even you don't speak human language anymore?

Roy complained in dissatisfaction and opened his eyes. He was no longer in front of the street outside the Knights' Association, but in the bedroom of Zofia's house. Standing beside him was not Mayenna, but Zofia, Maria and Viviana.

Seeing that Roy finally woke up, Maria breathed a sigh of relief and hugged Roy:

"Master, what happened to you just now? Uncle said that you fainted right after leaving the Knights' Association, and no matter how hard we called you, you couldn't be woken up. Are you sick?"

Looking at Maria who was almost crying, Roy could only smile and pat her head, comforting her: "It's okay, it's okay, maybe you're too tired recently. I feel much better after a good sleep."

"You are much better now. You almost scared us to death." Zofia pouted and looked a little angry, but the relief in her tone could not be concealed. She pouted at Viviana beside her and said, "Especially Viviana. If she hadn't happened to pass by, we might not have been able to bring you home."

Viviana's face flushed with embarrassment. It was a coincidence, but in fact, she rushed to the Knights Association as soon as she received Roy's call. Before Roy arrived, she had been wandering around nearby, just looking for an opportunity to help Roy if he really couldn't find a teammate.

Who knew that such an accident would happen? Although she did help Roy, she was more worried than happy.

"Mr. Roy, were you injured? During the points race."

One hundred and twenty-seven in one victory, what does this astonishing record represent? Viviana knows very well that although Roy did it, he must have suffered serious injuries!

After all, even someone like her who believed in Roy couldn't even imagine speedrunning without taking any damage.

But Roy just shook his head firmly and stubbornly, and comforted her with his usual relaxed smile and a tone that seemed to be stating the facts:

"Don't worry, I'm not injured and there's nothing wrong with my body."

Seeing Viviana frowning and wanting to ask more questions, Roy quickly changed the subject:

"By the way, why didn't I see Maenna? He should have been next to me at the time."

"After seeing you faint, uncle handed you over to Sister Candle Knight and went back to the Knights Association alone." Maria explained, "When he left, he seemed to be saying, 'To what extent will these people defile the knights?' He was furious."

Mahenna: The Unilluminated Glory (41/42).

Roy's mind flashed with this sentence, and his face was somewhat relieved. It seemed that Mainna was not silent enough to turn a blind eye to the tragedy that was so close, although he probably misjudged his condition at the time.

Come to think of it, after all, he was the one who sent death threats to Xuan Tie alone for Maria. It's not that he didn't want to take revenge, it's just that the time has not come yet.

Roy propped himself up from the bed, turned over and got out of bed, stretching his muscles.

The Last Knight module is obviously fundamentally different from the previous modules. After all, even the riddle module of the old lynx, whose level is unknown, was not strong enough to drag him into the illusion when it was unlocked. However, the Last Knight module did it. Not only that, it did not mark the module level or the module effect, but only used "special" and "growth" as labels, which made people even more intrigued.

[The Last Knight], if Roy guessed correctly, this module should come from the one who appeared in the Fool's Event, Yu Shuiyue Rouge, also known as the Sea Knight in the plot of the Sea Knight IF's World Destruction Line. In the second ending [The Age of Silence], facing the newborn [Ishamara] who launched the Second Great Silence and pushed the Sea Knight to the entire land, it, as a human who has completely become a Sea Knight, did not choose to return to the group, but jumped up and launched a desperate charge against the newborn.

Just like Don Quixote rushing towards the windmill, this charge is doomed to be in vain. From the subsequent plot files, Ishamara is not dead, and the sea is not dead. The sea is still evolving and advancing madly until it erodes the entire land. The final knight's ending was doomed from the beginning.

Then why is the module in Roy's hand marked as [Growth Type]?

Before Roy could figure out what was going on, a voice came from the entrance. Maena opened the door and called into the room, "Is he awake?"

Roy nodded to the worried crowd and replied, "Thanks to you, it looks like brand new."

Maena walked into the bedroom, looked Roy up and down, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Will it not affect tomorrow's game?"

"Of course no problem." Roy replied, and asked with interest: "I heard that you went to the Knights Association to cause trouble?"

"No, I just asked a few questions."

"whats the matter?"

"If I carry you, can I go to the game? And how many points can I get if I win the game."

"They can't possibly agree to that, right?" Roy said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. The doubles match was supposed to restrict him, so how could they allow him to be carried onto the ring to get points?

But unexpectedly, Mayenna raised a confident arc at the corner of his mouth and patted the sword at his waist.

"They agreed."

"Really? How did you do that?"

"After a cordial and friendly exchange," said Maenna, "it's a pity that it can't be used."

After that, he put away his smile and said seriously: "Get ready for the game. I don't want anything unexpected to happen tomorrow."

The doubles competition is about to begin at the Howling Wind Arena!

Volume 1: Chapter 54: Everything is ready, the killing game has begun

Casimir, Grand Knight Territory, Howling Wind Arena, Players' Lounge.

13:00 PM, 1 hour left before the competition officially starts.

Opposite Roy's lounge, in the Rift Knight's lounge, a well-organized team was intensively analyzing all the information about Roy.

From playing style to behavioral characteristics, from offensive methods to defensive means, he even played the video footage of Roy's few games frame by frame in order to analyze any possible weaknesses of Roy.

"This is a truly professional team. The Business Federation spent a lot of money to form this team specifically for you. With their help, let alone defeating Roy, even if the current top seed Blood Knight and Candle Knight face off against you, you will have a good chance of winning. I hope you won't let us down."

The spokesperson introduced and clapped his hands, and the porters outside the door immediately brought in two complete sealed iron boxes. In front of the Rift Knight and his partner Storm Knight, the spokesperson reached out and pressed the eye-catching red button on the sealed iron box.

The heavy iron box made a sound like a refrigerator being unsealed, and the outer iron door slowly opened to both sides. The built-in power supply automatically started the light, illuminating the equipment in the iron box.

Two sets of the latest knight competition armor jointly developed by Womar Heavy Industry and Gaofeng Competition were displayed in front of the two Rift Knights. The eye-catching appearance and the perfect workmanship visible to the naked eye made Rift Knight, who is deeply engaged in equipment, marvel. After being stunned for half a minute, he forced himself to turn around and look at the proud face of the special spokesperson of the Business Federation and asked:

"Is this intended for us?"

"Of course, these two sets of armor are tailor-made for you!"

The Rift Knight swallowed his saliva and asked nervously, "Is it... a reward?"

The spokesman chuckled and shook his head: "Of course not, how could it be possible. This is your new armor. You have to wear these two sets of armor to ensure a foolproof victory. Do you understand?"

"but......."

But isn’t this a bit of an overreaction?

The Rift Knight sighed in his heart, it's just to deal with Roy, is it necessary for the Chamber of Commerce to spend so much money?
