The Song of Gendaya

Linde followed the battallion of Glatis on the vast wasteland, and cavalry kept waving goodbye to leave the team and return to their checkpoint station.

When the pink sunset reappeared in the western sky, Linde found that there were only more than twenty Knights left beside him, including himself and Glatis.

"It really didn't expect that you only took more than twenty followers. The original battallion guys really shocked me." Linde said jokingly.

"It’s just that the Kavard wasteland is too vast, and our manpower also has five-six thousand, which is not small in terms of the military strength of the Gendaya countries, but once it is dispersed and stationed in Here, it is really like sand and gravel sinking into the river and sea, it seems so insignificant." There was a buzzing sound under the Glatis bottle helmet.

"That's right." Linde agreed politely. "But the powerful cavalry regiment will be stationed in this sparsely populated place. It's really unexpected. It really arouses people's curiosity."

"hehe...It’s not just you who say that. Although it’s barren and no one, but every year, there are still some travellers who have to cross here for various reasons. Almost everyone who meets us will To us, some people’s curiosity is even heavier than you. During the conversation, we can understand that most of them think that we, the silver lancers, who were once the knives of the kingdom, are now reduced to the great aristocracy. I can’t help but say that this is a big irony. But who knows? When we were founded, we were originally the private armies of the Olastan family. What should we do to serve the patriarch, but they are right. We are also the strong shield of the kingdom’s defense and the war spear of the raiders." Glatis said with a bitter smile, "It’s just that Valanya is already In name only, and now we are the ones who are not doing bad things under the banner of our Lancers. There have been more and more veterans who have been retired from the cavalry Legion, but most of them are borrowing the reputation of the Knight regiment. No, it should be said that they are using the terror of the Knight regiment to rob homes and extortion. I have to say, This is the sorrow of the Knight regiment, and even the sorrow of the kingdom of In name only."

"I can understand your mood. My father told me many stories about Knight in the past, and Knight will I put my honor higher than the sky, uphold justice and peace, and protect women and children from the weak." Linde said.

"Really overpraised the spirit of Knight and Knight, my friend, I believe your father is also a noble person." Glatis said heartily, and the Knights beside him laughed heartily "Knight's spirit is sacred and noble. Those of us who have been blessed by holy sword and holy water, none of us are not enthusiastic at the moment when we make the sacred oath. But when we step on the battlefield, whether it is our own defense or the defense of other countries Aggression, in the face of real enemies, those vows will turn into ears, no nobility and tolerance will be allowed in war. Maybe an old lady with a hunchback who seems weak will also take care of you when your back is facing her. He pierced the dagger in the back. You only have to hang her, or maybe you or your close companion may become the ghost of her knife."

Gratis found that Linde was surprised. When I looked at myself, I knew I had made a mistake. He continued: "Sorry, Linde, I said so many cruel things to you, because you are a friend of Rotar and Asriel, I also treat you as my own person."

"It doesn't matter, the things you said didn't scare me, but I also experienced massacres, almost..." Linde didn't want to think of that sad journey, he suddenly looked up After the setting sun in the west, the bloody clouds reminded him of the night when Loren Town was slaughtered, and the light of the fire also reflected the sky into red.

Glatis glanced at Linde, who was looked thoughtful, and did not speak any more.

Knight's team is still marching along the old road that they have stepped on for many years, until the sun sets and the sky turns dark blue, they finally arrived at their destination, the seventh checkpoint.

The checkpoint is located in a small oasis on the back of a soothing hillside. It is a medium-sized military fortress. One side of the fortress is a small forest made up of drought-tolerant plants, and the other side is near a small pool of water, and the presence of water sources facilitates the garrison.

In the dim night, the patrol passages on the black city wall of the fortress and the flares that protrude from the corner towers of the city wall are dotted and dotted, like a burning snake. Loud shouts and curses from men continued to be heard from the fortress.

"We are here. This is the seventh checkpoint. The place where I and a few other Captains agreed to meet is also the most decent fortress on this desert. The garrison Captain here is Sir Alham. We The second son of the Tywood family, the vassal of the Drizzt family, was also my former assistant." Glatis introduced.

After that, he urged the horse to walk down the hillside, and the other Knights followed closely, and Linde was also in the team.

In a short time, they came to the hillside and quickly merged into a flat yellow mud road, which went all the way north to the city gate of the black fortress.

Just listen to the sound of a dull horn, echoing in the starry night sky. Then came the loud screams of men and the turning of gears.

"The cavalry is back, it's Sir Gladys!" The sentry on the city wall lifted the torch and looked down the city wall.

The messenger inside the fortress also responded loudly: "My own person is back! Open the city gates soon!"

Slowly put it down, followed by the iron gate slowly rising, and finally the guards in the castle opened the large wooden city gate inward.

The four banner guards of Glatis walked in front, the earl eldest son and Linde follow closely from behind, and the remaining knight followed at the end.

The city wall here is actually heavier than expected, and Linde feels that going through it is like going through a rock tunnel. At the end of the tunnel is a spacious outer court, slightly different from what Linde had imagined.

He discovered that besides the brawny man in armor, there are also other people here, including thin men, exposed women, and half-old children in front of women.

There are two dirt dogs who have been entangled around the horses, barking and barking, and finally they were blasted away by a tall and obese man.

When Linde saw that everything in front of him was in a trance, everyone else had already rolled over and dismounted, and the boys in the stables stepped forward to pull the exhausted mount.

"Linde, get off the horse! Give the hunting shadow to Ronald. Yes, it is the child in front of you. He will take care of it." Glatis waved to Linde, and the other Knights were also there. Booing up.

Linde promised to roll over and dismount. A little child with freckles respectfully took the reins of the yellow phoenix warhorse, and walked towards the stable behind the inner court with the horse.

"young man, come with us, the kitchen should have prepared food for us." A tall Knight took off his bluffing helmet but showed a kind face, he patted Linde Said on his shoulder.

"Okay, thank you." Linde thanked him while looking for Glatis.

With the red light emitted by the rising flames in the brazier, Linde finally found Glatis among the noisy crowd. He was standing in front of the steps in front of the main fort with the same body as two or three. Knight wearing a delicate armor was talking about something, but unlike the others, he never took off his helmet.

"I said, don’t look, let’s go eat! It’s really uncomfortable to feel that I don’t eat anything for a whole night and I’ve been bumping for a day. My stomach now needs the nourishment of ale. The kind-faced Knight urged.

"Won't Glatis go to dinner with us?" Linde asked curiously. Maybe he asked a little more. The nobles should enjoy the exquisite meals alone, and how could they eat with the commoners.

"Oh, don't worry about him. He stays by himself except patrolling and fighting. He will come to you if he has something to do. The most important thing now is to eat and rest."

"Is this okay?" Linde muttered to himself. When he looked towards Glatis, the other party was also looking at him.

He just nodded to himself, and walked up the stairs of the main fort alone.
