Because there is a high-level warrior named Kordak, and now they are also within the defense line of the Hawke Empire. Therefore, after returning to the camp, several people did not rush to move their positions. Instead, they followed Kordak's decision and chose to bandage and rest.
It was not risky to do so, but since both Regner and Alexander were injured, they couldn't go very far. Instead of continuing to run to increase their safety, it would be better to recharge their batteries here. Besides, with Kordak and Vera's well-preserved combat capabilities, they don't have to worry too much.
The facts also proved that Kordak's decision was correct. It was calm all the time since that night. Saron did not attack again, and Stoker did not send any team to attack.
By the next day, Regnar and Alexander had also recovered some strength. At this time, the benefits of Alexander's attribute ability, Endless Source, are revealed. From the moment of sunrise, Alexander's face began to gradually turn rosy, and within two hours, he had completely returned to normal. Looking back at Regnar, this kid is still pale and sickly.
"Hey, look at His Highness, and then look at you. You are also a user with attribute abilities. Why is there such a big gap?" Kordak did not forget to laugh at the sick Regnar twice while walking on the road.
"I opened the fourth level of Darkness, and I also took a fireball from Saron. It's good that I didn't fall down now, right?" Regnar rolled his eyes and said.
"Tch, I also blasted that Saron's fireball with one sword? No, it's not a big deal?" Kordak was proud. He now feels more and more that it was a wise decision to choose this giant lava blade as his weapon. .
"That's because you have a good weapon. The giant lava blade can only defeat the fire attribute. You took advantage of this." Regnar also saw the problem.
"Oh? Giant Lava Blade?" Alexander was stunned. Only then did he notice Kordak's weapon.
"That's right." Kordak pulled out his two-handed sword and played with it quite fondly: "I remember that this sword was a trophy obtained by your Highness."
"Yes." Alexander nodded: "That General Stoke seems to be called Dotern, right? He is a very powerful warrior."
"That battle was thrilling, wasn't it?" Vera asked.
"Wars have always been thrilling, but that one was more cruel. My Golden Eagle Knights lost more than seventy brothers." Alexander said sadly.
"More than seventy?" The three of them were stunned. According to the introduction, in that battle, Dotern's Red Flame Cavalry Regiment was almost wiped out, while Alexander's men only lost more than seventy people
Here it is necessary to talk about the establishment of the Hawke Empire Knights. Under normal circumstances, every one hundred knights can be organized into a knight squad, every three knight squads can be organized into a knight squadron, every three knight squadrons can be organized into a knight brigade, and three knight brigade can form a knight order. . Therefore, under normal circumstances, the number of people in a knighthood is about three thousand.
And according to what Alexander said, in the collision between the two knights, one side only lost a hundred people, while the other side was completely wiped out? What's happening here
"Oh, the Golden Eagle Knights are different from other knights." Alexander explained: "My knights have a very small number, less than five hundred people."
"How come there are so few?" Kordak asked.
"That's right." Alexander nodded: "Every fifty people in the Golden Eagle Knights are organized into a squad, and three squads form a squadron, but there is no group formation. The three squadrons added up are all the people of the Golden Eagle Knights."
"With such a small number... every knight must be an elite, right?" Kordak guessed.
"Yes." Alexander said: "The average level of a normal Knights member should be level four to level five. In the Golden Eagle Knights, level eight is the entry level, and the average level is around level ten."
"Ouch!" All three people exclaimed. A knighthood composed entirely of mid-level and above strong men? They are truly the elite among the elites of the empire, but the military people are really relieved. Putting such a precious steel knife in the hands of Alexander, a young man who was not yet twenty years old, weren't they afraid that the Knights would be ruined by him? Or is this knighthood actually the second prince's personal guard
However, they did not know that the Knights of the Golden Eagle existed before Alexander joined the army. Even the second prince of the empire started as a messenger of this knight order. And the reason why he is now the leader of the Golden Eagle Knights is not because of anything else, but entirely because of the illustrious military exploits he has accumulated over the past few years!
Saron, the red flame sorcerer of the Stoke Empire, is indeed awe-inspiring, but when it comes to the most dazzling new star in the Kino continent, it is still Alexander who possesses both strength, strategy, talent, character, and appearance. The people of Kino Continent also gave him a title based on his long hair that was as bright as gold, that is, the Holy Golden Eagle, and the eagle is the symbol of the Hawke Empire's royal family emblem.
"I acted with a temporary special operations team before. We raided the supply depot of the Stoke Empire. But on the way back, we encountered Saron's interception. In order to cover their retreat, I had to go alone and He pestered," Alexander explained.
"So that's it. I heard that a support force came to the battlefield in Costa Canyon. It must be your highness's force." Kordak nodded. If Alexander really sacrificed himself as he said, If he has a body worth thousands of dollars to save his subordinates, then he is really a pretty good person.
If it were Joffrey, even if he had Alexander's strength, he would probably order his men to risk their lives to stop Saron without hesitation, and then escape by himself.
While Alexander and others were talking, a cloud of smoke and dust appeared not far away. Kordak took a closer look and found that it was a pair of cavalry.
"Is the enemy attacking?" Regnar assumed a combat posture.
"No." Vera, who had the sharpest eyes, shook her head: "They have the badge of the Hawke Empire, they should be our people."
"Maybe he came to pick me up," Alexander said.
Within a minute, the group of knights rushed over. Kordak felt it carefully and found that although there were only four knights in this group, each knight exuded an amazing aura. Among the four people who came, there were two mid-level warriors, a high-level warrior and a high-level mage. They didn't recognize those three warriors. But that mage turned out to be the high-level mage sent by the Hawke Empire's Court Mage Association to guard Costa Fortress!
Two of these four people passed directly over Kordak, then stopped behind them, surrounding them in the middle.
"Let go, Your Highness, or I will kill you on the spot!" The middle-aged knight at the head drew his sword without hesitation.
"Calm down, Just, they are the Reaper team, and it was with their help that I forced Saron back." In order to avoid misunderstanding, Alexander quickly explained.
Just took a closer look and discovered that Alexander was not restrained at all, but was carefully bandaged. It seemed that these people were really not enemies.
"I'm sorry..." After Just understood what was going on, he quickly put away his sword. He jumped off the horse, and then knelt in front of Alexander: "Just failed to provide timely support, please punish His Highness."
"Okay Just." Alexander smiled and helped the middle-aged man up: "I stayed here voluntarily, so you don't have to blame yourself for this. And, as I said, there is only the knight leader here, not the prince. .”
"Ashamed..." Just lowered his head slightly again.
"Go and apologize to Mr. Kordak and the others. What you did just now was a bit reckless." Alexander said quietly.
"..." A trace of reluctance flashed across Just's face, but in the end he walked up to Kordak and the others and said firmly: "I was wrong just now, please forgive me."
"It doesn't matter, you are also eager to protect the Lord." Kordak waved his hand generously.
"It's good to know." Just muttered.
"Huh? What did you say?" Regnar and Vera, both of whom had good hearing, frowned.
But Just ignored them and just turned to Alexander and said, "I have prepared the horses. Your Highness, please go back with us."
"Okay." Alexander nodded: "A few of my companions are also ready to come."
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, I only brought four extra horses with me when I came. These are all prepared for you." Just said with his head lowered.
"Your Highness, it seems that your subordinate doesn't like us very much." Regnar couldn't bear it any longer.
"I'm sorry, Regnar, Just has a weird temper sometimes, but he doesn't mean any harm." Alexander quickly explained.
"Your Highness, why do you need to apologize to them?!" Just also got angry.
"So you should come and apologize?" Vera couldn't help it. This guy had not looked at the three of them since he came here, and he clearly looked down on them. Since he had already slapped him in the face, Vera would not be polite to him because of her temperament.
"Why should I apologize to you?" Just was obviously not particularly good at talking.
"You are an arrogant idiot!" Vera yelled. Although they are not from the Hawke Empire, the Kordak team has worked hard for this country, and now a guy suddenly appears and targets them here for no reason. Can she not be angry
"We'll know who is arrogant after two moves!" Just drew out his sword angrily.
"Okay! It's just a high-level warrior. Do you really think I'm afraid of you?" Vera didn't retreat at all: "Regna, come on!"
"..." Although Regnar was also angry, Vera's last words made him feel like he was the dog that Vera unleashed to bite people...
"Okay!" Alexander and Kordak shouted at the same time.
"Juster, I order you to apologize immediately, and then give the other three horses to them! I tell you, they are my friends, if you dare to disrespect my friends again, you will go back to Merinder!" "Alexander was obviously really angry and spoke rudely.
"Xiao Lei, Vera, don't be impulsive!" After all, the other party was from the Hawke Empire Army. Kordak didn't want to cause trouble, so he quickly grabbed the two of them.
"..." Just's face was livid, but in the end, he followed Alexander's order and apologized to the three Kordaks again, and then gave the horses to them.
