"Teacher, are we really going to leave?"
A voice rang out on the barren road.
Standing in front of a road sign and looking at the familiar town behind her, Qemi looked at Adil with reluctance.
"You can stay."
Beside her, Adil turned around and looked at Qemi. "The outside world is very dangerous. If you stay here, at least there won't be too many problems in terms of safety."
"That's right." Meng La also agreed. He did not want his sister to be involved in this matter. "You stay here. When Teacher and I are done, we will come back to find you."
"No, I don't want to." Qemi shook her head stubbornly. "Big brother is leaving, and Teacher is also leaving. If I am the only one here, I might as well go out with you."
After saying this, she did not say anything else. She looked at Adil's expression and ran to a carriage.
"This child." Behind her, Meng La looked at her back and smiled bitterly. He felt somewhat helpless.
"Let's go," Adil said calmly as he looked at the long road in the distance.
"The road from here to Catutan City is very long. If we want to get there, we need to hurry."
… …
Boom!!
A crimson light exploded on the plains, instantly killing all living things within a radius of 1,000 meters.
A small hill collapsed in response, directly turning into dust and pulverizing. Countless people who witnessed this were dumbfounded.
"God!!"
"What kind of power is this!!"
Waves of exclamations came from afar.
Under the gazes of countless people, a person gradually walked over from afar.
It was a middle-aged man wearing black armor. His expression was very dignified. He looked ordinary on the surface, but the power that filled his body was enough to make anyone despair.
He did not have any weapons in his hands and only walked forward in Silence. He did not react at all to the thousands of soldiers standing in front of him. He simply ignored them.
"Kill!!"
In the distance, several waves of battle energy surged into the sky. Then, several battle energy armors quickly condensed and rushed towards the middle-aged man.
They were very fast. In just a few seconds, they had crossed a large distance and arrived beside the middle-aged man.
However, before they could make a move, a faint scarlet radiance filled the surroundings.
Streaks of crimson light constantly intertwined with each other and finally triggered a torrent. Like a huge waterfall, those heavenly knights in the distance were buried.
"NO!!" The sound of a dying struggle echoed in the air.
When the crimson flood disappeared, the thousands of soldiers standing in front of the man had all disappeared.
A cloud of dust rose from the ground and gradually dispersed in all directions under the gentle breeze.
Facing the scene in front of him, the man didn't feel surprised. The expression on his face didn't change in the slightest. He just silently raised his head and looked into the distance, "Malan …"
"I'm coming …"
… …
"The Scarlet Spirit Knight Heramar ambushed the border. Five thousand knights stationed in the White Valley were annihilated!"
"News from the Winter Fort. The Scarlet Spirit Knight Helama went berserk and split the Winter Fort in half. The death toll is at least 30,000!"
In the magnificent palace, a series of intelligence reports were quickly read out.
At the very top of the palace, the man sitting on the throne had a livid expression as he listened to the latest news. His dignified face was now filled with anger.
"Heramar!!" He roared angrily. A layer of faint red Dou Qi appeared on his strong body, causing the surrounding space to tremble and produce some kind of low and ear-piercing sound.
"Father." Below, Eileen stood there with a slightly ugly expression.
She looked at Malan Monarch and said, "It's obvious that he's doing this to force us out."
"Of course I know." Malan King's expression didn't decrease, "He not only wants to force us out, he is also testing us!"
"From Dekala to Guno, and then to our Malan, he has been acting as the vanguard for King Turin. He wants to see how much power the protectors of the past have left."
Hearing this, Eileen also frowned.
Malan, Guno, Dekala, Xilu. There was a reason why the four empires were known as the strongest empires.
In addition to the strength and history of the four empires, each of the four empires had their own royal protectors as the final means of protecting the country.
Among them, the protectors of the Dekala Empire were still there, but they were too old. In addition, they had been seriously injured during the battle with King Turin and were now on the verge of death, struggling with their last breath.
This was also the reason why the Turin Sect besieged the Dekala Empire. In addition to taking revenge, they also wanted to exhaust the protectors of the Dekala Empire.
The protectors of Guno and Malan had fallen, but they each left behind a backup plan. Malan's protector even left behind a spirit that had chosen to attach itself to Eileen's body.
As for the Xilu Empire, although it was located in the center and bordered other empires, it had always been closed and rarely communicated with the outside world. Therefore, the specific information was not clear, and it was hard to say whether the protectors were alive or dead.
"Eileen."
Sitting on the throne, Malan King looked at Eileen, "Can you use the means that the protectors left behind?"
"Barely." Eileen frowned, "But this way, I'm afraid the recovery of the Malan Scepter will be delayed by at least three years."
"Then use it." Malan King stood up and looked in a certain direction, "Three months later, I will challenge the Scarlet Knight. Once I lose, use the scepter immediately."
"Okay." After hesitating for a moment, Eileen finally nodded in agreement.
Soon, three months passed in an instant.
At noon, the surrounding sunlight was very hot.
Outside Katuten, the atmosphere was very tense, and the surrounding air had begun to stagnate.
"Only two people came?"
Sitting on a temporary high platform, listening to Eileen's report, Malan King's face was cold, and no one could tell whether he was happy or angry.
"Yes." In front of him, looking at Malan King's current appearance, Eileen could not help but sigh, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness.
Beside her, there were two people standing there at this time. They looked different, and each had a different temperament and aura.
The only similarity between them was that there was a powerful aura present on the bodies of these two people. Dou Qi was spreading all over their bodies. Even if they did not actively activate it, just the kind of aura that was produced instinctively was enough to cause one to be horrified and feel an indescribably powerful pressure.
These two people were Knights of Radiance, and they were truly loyal to the Malan Royal Family.
Malan Empire was one of the four major empires in the world. According to common sense, although there were not many Knights of Radiance in the country, there should not be so few of them left.
In fact, in the Malan Empire, Eileen knew that there were close to ten Knights of Radiance. However, at this critical moment, only these two people were willing to come to Katuten to help.
This was not difficult to understand.
The Knights of Radiance were the true top power of this world. If they were willing to go out and explore, each of them had the ability to establish a duchy and become the founder of a country.
In the Malan Empire, these Knights of Radiance were often big lords. Not only did they have huge families behind them, but their subordinates were also strong. It was equivalent to a small independent kingdom.
In normal times, when the Malan Royal Family was strong, these people might still listen to the orders of the royal family. However, at this point, it was too unrealistic to expect these people to obey orders and fight to the death with Scarlet Knight, the number one Knight of Turin.
After all, as a Knight of Radiance, no matter where they were, they could live well. No matter which of the two forces, the Malan Empire or the Turin Sect, won in the end, they would have to rope in and appease these people.
As a Knight of Radiance, Eileen could understand what these people were doing, but she could not help but feel angry.
There were close to ten Knights of Radiance. If these people could really work together, a mere Scarlet Knight would eventually be stopped, no matter how strong he was.
However, at this critical moment, these people were afraid to move forward. Because they were afraid of offending the Turin Sect, they chose to wait and see, which led to the current embarrassing situation.
"Coming."
At this moment, a voice broke the silence.
