Seven Dragon Chronicle October 14, 1033, the Duchy of Tiling, the capital city of Xueshi

The Duchy of Tiling is the smallest and weakest among the human countries. However, more than two hundred years ago, the Duchy of Tiling was one of the most powerful countries among the human kingdoms. Although the territory of the Duchy of Tiling was as small as it is now, it was the only Duchy of Tiling that did not prohibit the study of magic. In order to attract more mages to come to the Duchy, the then Grand Duke also deliberately changed the name of the capital of the Principality to the City of Learning. Therefore, the Duchy of Tiling at that time could be said to be the center of magic research in the Kingdom of Humanity, and its strength could naturally be imagined. [..com]

However, when Sandro, the legendary necromancer, brought the necromancer spells into the Principality, everything changed. The Church of Light was already very annoyed that the Principality of Tiling allowed the study of spells. However, the church had not recovered from the last battle of the moon eclipse, so it kept suppressing its mind and waiting for opportunities. The emergence of the necromancer spell naturally brought a good opportunity.

Afterwards, the Church of Light used the excuse of "The Principality of Tiling to allow the study of death heresy" to send a call to all human kingdoms of "the Crusader of Light".

Although other principalities did not care about the spell research conducted by the Duchy of Tiling, the undead spell clearly touched the bottom line of all believers of light, so hundreds of thousands of coalition forces composed of six countries quickly rushed to the Duchy of Tiling. Unfortunately, the Duchy of Tiling was also in civil strife at that time. After all, most of the residents of the Duchy of Tiling still believed in the Dragon of Light and were extremely repulsive to the undead.

As a result, under the attack of internal and external forces, the Duke of Tiling quickly collapsed, and the then Grand Duke committed suicide, but the Church of Light and the coalition forces of various countries obviously would not stop so easily. In the following days, massacres and plunders were everywhere in the Duke, and the capital was almost razed to the ground. The population of the entire Duke lost nearly half. It was precisely because of this reason that the entire Duke's belief in the Dragon of Light quickly collapsed, which made it impossible for hundreds of years to heal.

However, when the Duchy of Tiling was attacked by the Crusaders, something very ironic happened.

On the first day of the war, the mages in the Principality basically ran away, but none of the necromancers escaped. Their representative, Sandro, had been standing next to the corpse of the then Grand Duke after the fall of the capital. Even when he was besieged by several archbishops, he still did not choose to escape until he died in the end...

After pacifying the Duchy of Tiling, the Church of Light took advantage of the situation to announce the ban on any form of magic research. At the same time, a large number of monasteries were built in the Duchy of Tiling, but the money for building those monasteries came from the hands of the people of the Duchy of Tiling.

But the first task of those monasteries was not to priesthood, but to monitor and monitor the entire principality. The army of the principality was also limited to a relatively low scale, and millions of indulgences were purchased from the church every year. It can be said that the entire principality, from the Grand Duke to the people, had a faint anger towards the church. Therefore, after the necromancers threw out their olive branches, the Grand Duke of the Principality would take over so easily. The anger accumulated by the nearly two hundred years of oppression is unimaginable to ordinary people...

"I always think that the Grand Duke is playing with fire. The power of the Light Church is so powerful. There are nearly fifty knights alone, including more than ten famous knights like [Knights of the Sun] and [Whip of the Light]. This is not even considered the knights that can be called up at any time! The Grand Duke is so irrational to irritate the church again and again! "

In front of the huge gate of a huge military camp outside the city, several wearing dark brown metal knight armor were handing their horses to the attendants on the side. At the same time, one of them was constantly complaining to a knight in front...

"Little Li, we should not say much about what the Grand Duke should do. After all, the duty of our National Knights is to protect the Principality, and we should not ask about anything other than that."

The knight who was talking was wearing black curly cloud beast pattern knight armor (orc style), with flat black hair, a clear national face with a clear horn, and a slanted sword eyebrows, which looked very solemn. While shaking his head, he was still constantly stroking a huge flying dragon next to him with red horns and silver scales on his head.

"But leader, if we continue like this... After all, we are just players. There is no need to fight with the Light Church for such a little salary? By the way, we can go to other places..."

"Oh, Xiao Li, if you don't want to be enemies with the church, then I can give you some money and let you find him."

"I dare not, if you don't, why would I leave if you don't leave? It's just..."

"I know……"

After someone took away the flying dragon on both feet, the knight slowly turned around, and a large number of people behind him for a while, then said with a calm expression:

"... Since [Moroyana] was defeated, the entire principality has basically been dispersed, and the number of newbies born in the whole game is the least. Especially after the Grand Duke decided to cooperate with Helesh, many people felt very desperate. After all, the power of those undead guilds is too terrifying... But because of this, Grand Duke personally allocated funds and organized this National Knights Order, which consisted entirely of players, in order to give Tiling players still hope..."

As he said that, he suddenly lowered his head slightly, sighed softly, and then continued to raise his head and said:

"... Of course, I know you can't understand it. I think it's just a game. If you can't do it well, you can leave, but..."

Suddenly, he slowly walked forward a few steps, came to the knight who had complained to him before, and gently placed his right hand on the other party's shoulder.

"...Xiao Li, how long have you been in this game?"

"In reality, it will be about two months, and for game days... it should be half a year."

"Then do you remember the scene when you first entered the game?"

"Remember! My birth point was in the town of Peiduo, the principality of THAAD. There were so many people at that time."

"Then do you remember the first NPC you encountered?"

"Well... it should be the fat boss in the restaurant. At that time, I wanted to try what it felt like to eat in the game..."

"Very good. You still remember what happened half a year ago so clearly. If someone wants to destroy Peiduo Town, will you allow it?"

"Of course not!"

"Why? Isn't this rare and not just a game? Aren't those people just a bunch of data?"

"This... has been so long, I have some feelings at least."

“That’s right…”

The knight murmured in a low voice, then suddenly raised his head, and the master shouted:

"He's right!"

After saying that, he glanced at everyone, and a look of determination gradually bloomed in his eyes.

"We were born on this land, and we grew up on this land. No matter what purpose, we all sprinkled our own sweat on this land! This land, the people on this land, have also witnessed everything we have paid and obtained! It has nothing to do with games, nothing to do with reality, but only with our hearts... The people on this land, whether they are data or not, have provided us with a lot, a lot... Kind old people and cute children, every time I see them being overwhelmed by the church, I can't sleep all night, so I don't oppose the Grand Duke's approach. All of this is for the people of the Principality to be able to get rid of the shackles of the church. This is also my wish, because... everything on this land is worth my protection, and I should protect it, because my age on this land is...one year."

"Captain...I..."

The more the knight he put on his shoulder heard behind him, the redder his face became. In the end, he even wanted to find a crack in the ground to get in...

"No, you are right. Because this is a game, there is no right or wrong in personal choices, only a clear conscience is required."

As he said that, the Knight slowly pulled back his right hand.

"...So my choice is to leave a spark of hope for the Duchy of Tiling. The Knights of the National Order will surely grow into a force that can protect this country. I have always believed that this is the land that carries my memory for a year cannot be destroyed, whether it is the church or the undead!"

After saying that, he quickly turned around and walked towards the military camp gate with firm steps. The knights behind him, after a few seconds, suddenly stood up and shouted:

"So too!"

The knight, the commander of the National Knights of the Duchy of Tiling, was on the 30th in the Inhuman List, [Thunder Tooth Dragon Spear] Qin Yanyang did not stop after hearing their voices, but just turned his head slightly, and a helpless smile slowly hung on the corner of his mouth...

"Then why don't you keep up, and you'll have to train a new battle formation later."

"yes!"
