Alien Knights

On the hill to the south of Muxi Town, there is a tombstone in the shape of a holy cross, facing the busy town and the quiet sea.

Alfonso, who hid his body in the armor again, knelt on the ground with one knee, placed a bouquet of pure white phoenix flowers in front of the grave, looked at the Latin engraved on the stone tablet, and remained silent.

"Adelina Sarri Wilmot, a lady of integrity, modesty and courage. She faced the injustices of fate and never flinched. At the cost of her life, she awakened a knight from hatred and prejudice. 』

At the top of the hill tens of meters away from the tomb, at the door of the residence of Alfonso and his followers, Leslie was helping Walton pack his luggage.

The boy with the red lines on his forehead glanced at the short and fat man with a numb face, thought hard for a long time, and finally said, "Adelina's matter can't be blamed on the boss..."

Walton didn't even look back: "I know."

"It was the three of us at the beginning, and we insisted on following."

"I know."

"And you should know, Adelina, sir..."

Walton put the bag in his hand on the ground heavily, turned his face to Leslie, and widened his eyes: "I know!"

Leslie sighed: "Then why are you leaving?"

Walton closed his eyes and clenched his fingers tightly into fists: "I'm just tired of this life of fighting and killing..."

Seeing the short and fat man pack his bags and walk out of the room, Leslie turned to his back and asked loudly, "Then what are your plans for the future?"

"I want to open a winery and brew a wine that will make you forget all your worries once you drink it!"

At the same time, in the "Come Tomorrow" tavern, two old men in casual clothes sat at the innermost table, drinking ale and eating snacks, enjoying themselves.

"Other nobles have left one after another, but you are the last one."

Cumberland grabbed a piece of jerky, threw it into his mouth and chewed it loudly so that the guests at the next table could hear it clearly.

Earl Emerson frowned and looked at the other party, shaking his mustache, and said in a nonchalant tone, "Isn't it too wasteful not to take a few days off from the capital?"

Cumberland swallowed the food in his mouth, took another sip of ale, leaned forward slightly, and said to Emerson, "The kingdom is about to end, so don't go back."

Earl Emerson was taken aback for a moment, then laughed: "You really will never learn the skill of 'reservation'."

The old knight glanced at him: "The two of us together are over a hundred years old. Are we wasting time on "reservation" and leaving business in the coffin?!"

Emerson did not choose to continue this topic, and said with a smile: "I want to ask you something, the head of the Muxi Knights, what's your opinion?"

When Cumberland heard this question, he put down the ale in his hand, his expression became serious for the first time, and he thought for a while before saying, "I don't understand."

Emerson was a little surprised: "Don't understand?"

The old knight nodded: "About the commander-in-chief, I have found someone to understand all his deeds in detail. Knowledgeable, good at speech, proficient in alchemy, etc., these may be explained by talent. Then there are many things that I don't understand. He can form an almost invincible army, he can develop Muxi Town from scratch by himself, and he can accept any ethnic groups and individuals that are excluded by the mortal world. But his heart is so pure and has no dirty desires. All of this, Somewhat similar to the one in the "Bible"..."

Emerson heard this and whispered to himself: "Holy Son..."

The old knight continued: "Some time ago, a nobleman protested to the head of the regiment about the standard of food. The answer he got was only one sentence - "Muxi Town is a land ruled by the Heavenly Father, where there is only faith and no class". Now that I think about it carefully, he has indeed done the same. No matter who he is, no matter what his status is, as long as he has a pious heart to the Heavenly Father, he is willing to accept it with an open heart. These not only explain his special identity..."

"The Holy Son is back!"

Someone shouted loudly outside the tavern.

Todd, Rachel, and Hudgens, with the "Railgun Girl" found in the cave - Cosette, rode through the streets of the town and rushed back to the headquarters of the Knights.

Before the dusty head of the regiment had time to drink his saliva, Brother Qiao with two dark circles blocked him at the gate.

"My lord, I'm currently contemplating a will." The monk stared at Todd with an unfriendly expression.

Todd was stunned for a moment, then asked quickly, "A will? Are you sick?"

"I'm about to die from exhaustion!" The monk pointed to the left and right panda eyes, and said loudly: "Thirty-six hours! A full thirty-six hours! I have been working continuously for a full thirty-six hours without closing my eyes!!!"

Todd made gestures to let Rachel and Hudgens go first with Cosette, who was wrapped in black cloth, and asked the monk, "Are there so many jobs?"

Hearing Todd ask such a question, Joe seemed to be greatly stimulated. He took a deep breath, clapped the paperwork in his hand, and quickly explained his work one by one: "Let's talk about the planning and construction of Muxi Town first! The commercial area has burned down so much, is it going to be rebuilt?! With so many new residents joining Muxi Town, is it necessary to expand the scope of planning?! There are also industrial areas, livestock areas, agricultural areas, public construction projects, etc.!"

Todd felt dizzy for a while, his eyes were blank.

Seeing the other party's expression, Qiao sneered and continued, "Do you think this is over? Let me talk about the "Sacred Order Arbitration Tribunal"! It has been almost five months since the establishment of this organization, and you, as the president of the judge, have never appeared once! Do you know? I spent a whole day yesterday to deal with the accumulated 179 cases..."

Todd was surprised: "So many?! One month?"

Joe gritted his teeth resentfully: "Three days...Speaking of which, these jobs are not the ones that give me the most headaches, the most painful is the church work!"

After the monk mentioned this, Todd suddenly remembered that since he received the Holy Ministry's announcement on the establishment of the Knights Order, the deacons who originally belonged to the Holy Branch Cathedral have returned to Silver Ring City one after another. Now the work of the church is indeed concurrently held by Brother Joe.

"Praise, mass, confession, baptism, etc., I can still let my brothers do it for me, but I can only manage the funds of the holy treasury and the "Mutual Aid Society" by myself." Brother Joe became more and more excited as he talked: "I have to remember thousands of things about spending money and making money, and I have to know every number by heart.

Todd patted Joe on the shoulder and signaled him to calm down: "I understand, I understand. I will start to find ways to reduce your workload..."

The monk, who was obviously dissatisfied with the chief commander's comfort, grabbed the former's robe and led him to the conference hall, saying, "I've already figured out a solution for you!"

After entering the conference hall, Todd saw a group of people, who were waiting for him there early. The leader had a beautiful appearance, fair complexion, and a weak figure.

"Let me introduce you, Dion de Beaumont, the Knight of Dion!" Looking like a vendor selling goods, Brother Joe said excitedly: "The Knight of Dion is the third child of the Beaumont family, a family of judges. He has studied at the Royal Academy and is proficient in more than ten languages. It couldn't be more suitable!"

Todd gave Joe a funny look, then moved his gaze to the faces of the others: "Are you willing to take on this job?"

Dion performed a knight salute, with light golden ponytail and long hair, slightly undulating along his petite figure: "Chief, we are willing to contribute our strength to the Knights."

After chatting with Dion and the students for a while, Todd left the conference hall. Seeing that Joe was still following him, he asked strangely, "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

The monk nodded: "About Muxi Town's fund management work, there is a candidate to replace me..."

Five minutes later, Todd saw someone unexpected in the chief's room.

Queen Mary.

She was wearing an ordinary women's simple dress, but her aloof temperament and inviolable aura made Todd look a little sideways.

"I heard that you want to manage the Sanctuary and Mutual Aid in Muxi Town?" Todd looked at the woman sitting at the table, and said with some doubts: "Those are extremely important, but also extremely complicated tasks. There are many numbers and details that need to be memorized. A little carelessness will cause errors in the accounts. Can you do it?"

Mary didn't answer the question, but stood up and walked to the door of the room.

Seeing her actions, Todd was a little surprised.

Give up now?

The woman did not leave, but closed the door from the inside.

Todd is a bit square: "Hey, why are you closing the door..."

Mary turned around, pointed to the bookcase in the room, and said, "Commander, please open any book, and tell me the title, page number and line number."

Todd was a little confused, but he did it anyway.

To his surprise, the woman recited the exact words in the book.

Todd quickly changed to the second and third books, and conducted experiments again and again, but the result was still the same. The woman could always recite the original words in the book.

Mary put her hand on her forehead, and the expression on her face couldn't tell whether she was remembering or thinking. She said to Todd word by word: "Master Chief, I have a secret that I planned to bring to the grave. I am a heterogeneous species with the ability of "super memory". Everything I have seen, heard, or felt will exist in my memory and will never die."
