This is the fourth day on Randle and his team's escape.

The weather on the island is still so bad, just like the day when the Iron Fort fell.

The martial arts master once said that perhaps it was because neither the Freud people nor the North Reich people believed in the relationship between the Lord of the Storm, Talos, which angered the moody Lord of the Storm, and the entire Moon Shadow Islands were often visited by the storm.

Strong winds, heavy rains, and thunder always come inadvertently, ravaging everything on the island.

However, the creatures on Yueying Island seem to have long been accustomed to this stormy weather:

The strong wind makes them as silent and tenacious as mountains and earth,

The heavy rain let them know that they need to train martial arts as deep as ancient trees.

Lei Ming reminds them to wake themselves up every day.

Perhaps it is precisely because of Yueying Island's "feeding" by the storm that it can maintain such a state of isolation from the world and hanging overseas all year round.

But this peaceful and peaceful state was finally broken.

The creatures on their Yuesha Island are too blind to believe in the storm.

Whenever the storm comes, all the fishing boats stop and dock, the druids return to the wooden house to meditate and realize the depth of nature.

Even the daily training of their group of Templars will be transferred to the inside of the temple.

Some knights in charge of patrol will also relax their vigilance in this kind of weather.

It was hard for them to imagine that the Luskans could launch an offensive against their Iron Fort in such a violent storm weather, even though the group of foreigners paid a considerable price for this:

Many ships hit the reefs under the surging undercurrents.

Their Iron Castle people paid a greater price for their contempt and ignorance.

At the beginning of the Luskan invasion of the Moonshadow Harbor, they did not decisively seize the port and defended it, but instead hurried in the iron fort that they thought they were safer and watched coldly as these foreigners performed how to hit the reef under the storm.

However, after some Luskan warships successfully arrived at the harbor and landed, the opponent's advanced carrier-based artillery completely destroyed the pride and dignity of their Iron Fort.

The thick fortress that could make the Freud people kowtow and turn bloodlessly has become a cage for them to be self-confidenced by their group of paladins.

Randall saw not only the stone structure that was smashed down by a powerful Templar, but also buried it with the earth.

Then, under the bombardment of the Yueying Island carrier-based artillery, they failed to stick to their original defensive strategies. Instead, under the leadership of the martial arts commander, they led more than 400 paladins to charge towards the Iron Fort Port.

They believed at the time that as long as the anchors of those Luskan ships were cut off, the storm would send these ships that had nowhere to "take root" back to the sea and suffer the cruel test from the Lord of the Storm Talos.

As a result, before they achieved this strategic goal, they were first tested by magic crossbow arrows and were tortured by the development of civilization.

These despicable outlaws!

Yes, even when facing the rangers' bows and arrows, no matter the [Combat Reflection] expertise and divine art [Holy Light Shield] given by the gods on the Paladin Road, they can almost ignore the ravine on the battlefield.

Even if they did not successfully avoid or use the Holy Light Shield, their heavy knight armor stomach was difficult to break through by ordinary bows and arrows.

Unless it is the high-level ranger with amazing shooting skills, he can directly aim at the eye sockets of their armor, neck and joints to block them.

But magic crossbow arrows are different. The magic effect on them can have a high probability of breaking their holy light shield and then successfully breaking the defense.

Faced with the saturated shooting of the group of foreigners at any cost, their "pedantic" paladins often had to fall in batches before they charged in front of the enemy.

Randall was unfortunately shot and fell down.

He originally thought he would die without a doubt.

But when he woke up, he was already in a secret passage in the temple.

To be ashamed, Randall, a Templar and a guardian knight, was rescued by His Highness Edwinna whom he needed to protect.

Edwina is the youngest princess in the Kendick Dynasty and the most special princess.

It is said that when her mother was young, she fell in love with a foreigner who came to Yueying Island to travel. She elopeed with her without considering Queen Alicia's erratic opposition, and there was no news from then on.

And Edwina is the child left by the mother.

Perhaps because of her mother, Queen Alicia was not very concerned about Edwina.

When he was still young, he sent him directly to the Iron Fort as an apprentice to learn the heritage of the ancient druids.

But anyone with a discerning eye knows that due to the complex relationship between the people of the North and the Freud tribes, Edwina is to some extent a proton that maintains the relationship between the two tribes, just like her mother back then.

However, when her mother faced her marriage, she chose to resist.

Perhaps because of inheriting her mother's genes, Edwina has been very smart since childhood, but she is also very rebellious.

She actually learned the druid knowledge of the three schools of Totem, Transformer and Avenger at the same time.

So she can not only summon various animal spirits to assist her in reconnaissance and combat, but also often transform into some small animals to engage in pranks.

At the same time, she seemed to be interested in the martial arts of their paladins, but she scoffed at the doctrine of justice of the paladins.

It is precisely because of this that although she has learned a lot of paladin slashing skills, she has been unable to be recognized by the god of justice Tyr and become a real paladin.

This shortcoming made Randall secretly relieved at that time.

At that time, he simply felt that if His Highness Edwinna himself became a saint, would he not need to protect him?

The facts later were just the opposite. In the Moon Shadow Islands, which were naturally isolated from the world, Edwina, who had a dual identity, would hardly suffer any life and safety. Instead, he, the guardian knight, often became a drag on the other party.

For example, when he was physically punished in training, he secretly turned into a small animal and handed him water. Because of the punishment, he was not allowed to take him to dig a bird's nest during supper.

He once asked Edwina for this reason, is it against nature to do so?

As a result, Edwina retorted:

"The real way of nature is survival of the fittest.

"Simply protecting the weak is a foolish view.

“The chicks will one day need to jump down from the treetops before they can truly learn to fly.

"Oce cats also need to hunt other creatures in nature to absorb nutrients and grow up.

“The opposite is that excessive consentment and protection will only cause it to wither quickly when the storm comes.

“Because it has never really experienced nature.

“The real nature is realistic and cruel.

“I also need enough food to grow up, so it’s not too much to just take two eggs?

“After all, what I know is the nature of circulation and exchange.

"No one will really give without any demands and help the weak, who do that, either is a god of justice or a fool.

“No, even the God of Justice requires people’s faith to give believers divine art, right?

"I, Edwina, are the best example."

Randall wanted to refute her at that time, and then told the other party loudly:

‘No matter what others do, at least Randle is willing to give her wholeheartedly, without asking for anything in return, even if the price is his own life.’

But for some reason, he always felt that the words were against his original intention.

And the words against their true nature refuted the teachings of his paladins.

After all, even if you raise cattle and horses when you were young, you have to give them enough for them to follow you.

And I am really as selfless as I imagined, and I don’t ask for anything in return?

Feeling the warm and soft touch underneath, Randall felt that maybe this was what he was pursuing.

perhaps.

I am not as noble and selfless as I imagined.

"Hey! Randall, hold on tight, don't sleep! You have to stay awake! Otherwise, you can open your eyes here and you may go to Barto Hell to report."

The rain was still sluggish, and a female wolf carried a paladin covered in blood and was already unconscious because of the inflammation of the wound. Seeing that the paladin on his back was about to slide down, the female wolf thrust his buttocks, arched it back, and then said to others.

They passed through the strait of Oman Island through the secret passage of the temple and came all the way to Quinas Island in the south. They were preparing to go to Cowell, the second largest city-state in Moon Shadow Island for help.

It was the earliest home of the Kendick family, and the city that occupied half of the southern island of Gernaes was also the first place where the Freuds settled. The stone-filled coast and high wilderness are a perfect place for those who have a firm will and keep a distance from their neighbors, or for those druids who seek to believe in the temple of the wilderness.

"I...I am a paladin. Even if I die, I will report to the kingdom of my god Tyr." Randall retorted with some slight verbal words.

"Ha, you didn't die directly on the battlefield. If you die now, it can only be considered that you have a weak will to live and seek death. Do you think your god will take away your soul?" Edwina retorted.

"..." Randall was speechless.

One man and one wolf were silent for a long time, Randall suddenly felt energetic and sat up, and then said solemnly:

"Your Highness, just let me go here. With our current situation, you can't get to Cowell with your back."

But the other party's answer always makes him speechless:

"If you, a pedantic idiot, refused to take off this heavy turtle shell, would we have fallen to this situation?"

"...I am a Paladin, and this armor has been blessed by my god Tyr, and I cannot leave it behind."

Randall's expression when he said this was very similar to those men who were threatened by his girlfriend in Lanxing's hard drive.

Edwina was unhappy: "Tyer! Tyer! Count on how many times have you said the name of this God of Justice in the past few days. If the God of Justice is really the incarnation of kindness and justice, he would never see him descend to incarnate and drive away those Luskan robbers!"

Randall was not happy: "Your Highness, this is a war between us mortals, and gods cannot participate. Also, how can you be so disrespectful to the names of gods!"
