Alien Paradise.

Chapter 311 You are my knight
"This person...I..." Sandra opened her mouth, not knowing where to start. At that time, she thought it was just the eldest lady's whim, and didn't take it too seriously. Unexpectedly, it was this person who turned Glory Castle upside down! Not only would he remain unknown, but the explosion in the Ash Hill Mine that was comparable to the sun falling was enough for the entire island to remember him for a lifetime. Even I... worked for him for a month.

"...I did see him. But he is a little different from what you thought... This matter is quite complicated to talk about. Let's talk about it later when we have time."

Not only was it complicated, but it was also incredible throughout. She really didn't think of how to explain it clearly and make the other party believe that she hadn't deceived her.

"It seems he lied to me..." Eliz seemed to be thinking in another direction.

Either they are extremely talented people, or they are liars who deceive the world and steal their fame... and true talents obviously should not be described in words, and only those liars who cover up well can make the defense officer of Glory Castle look so embarrassed.

In an instant, Sandra knew that the other party had misunderstood her.

When she was about to explain, there was another knock on the door outside the house.

The one who came in was Mekfa, the "Flower Divine Sword".

"What's the matter?" Elise turned around and asked.

"Mrs. Xiaguang asked me to inform you that she is gathering leaders from all walks of life in the Tiange Banquet Hall and wants to discuss with everyone the fight against Duke Longjiu. If you want to go, I can escort you there." The latter said, stroking his chest. .

"But I'm not a member of the Royal Guard..." It wasn't that Sandra had stage fright, she just didn't want to cause trouble to the other disciple because of her identity.

"Can I...?" Sandra couldn't help but hesitate a little - based on her past experience in the military, she was not qualified to participate in such a meeting to discuss the general direction of strategy.

"Will you be my knight?"

"If you become a knight, you can follow me wherever I go." She blinked, "Of course... I know that joining the Royal Guard is your dream, but that must be canonized by His Majesty the King. I Although you can only be canonized as a knight, many people in history became knights first and then were promoted to members of the Guard. "

Shantara was stunned.

It was her dream to join the Royal Guard, but now she no longer has such a strong obsession.

Sandra knelt down on one knee, "I am willing to protect you."

Unfortunately, the other party said one thing wrong.

"I understand, please wait for me outside for a while." The eldest lady nodded.

Sandra raised her eyebrows sensitively.

"We don't have much strength left. We are no longer the glorious army we had before. And you are a master-level warrior. You are qualified to join the Royal Guard. Naturally, you can also participate in high-level military-related meetings."

Discussing war strategies in the banquet hall, and it is still led by the lord of Star Reaching City? Don't they know that the generals of the Royal Army are the most professional when it comes to arranging troops?

Eliz stared at her for a moment and then suddenly pulled out the sword from her waist and put the tip of the sword on her shoulder.

Then she turned back to look at Sandra, "You come with me."

"So be it."

This is absolutely true.

And what does "if you want to go" mean?
Elize is supposed to be a representative of the Royal Army faction. It involves an important meeting against Duke Longjiu. How can she stay out of it?
But seeing that Eliz had no reaction, she couldn't speak decisively.

What's more, Eliz Ben is the eldest daughter of General Farrus, has legal inheritance rights, and her status is equivalent to that of a duke. Being able to become a Duke's knight is also the dream of many warriors.

No matter what, being a knight can indeed save you a lot of trouble. Otherwise, she is just a non-staff member who has left the organization for a long time and is not even considered a city defense officer.

"No honorifics allowed." This was the first time Eliz smiled since the two met.

Then she tapped Sandra's left and right shoulders with the tip of her sword, recited the oath of mutual aid, and the simple canonization ceremony was completed. "Although there is no third party witness, you can't go back on your word." She said solemnly, "From today on, you are my knight."

……

Half an hour later, the three people arrived at the meeting place in a carriage.

It was a stone tower built on the top of a mountain, almost six stories high. Under the cold wind, its windward side was completely wrapped in snow, and the snow reflected the firelight in the windows, making it even at night. Later, its outline is also clearly discernible.

"It deserves to be called the Tian Pavilion. This tower can be regarded as one of the landmark buildings in the royal capital."

Eliz jumped out of the carriage and looked up.

That person was right, Sandra thought, considering that this place is covered in ice and snow all year round, it is not easy to build such a magnificent stone tower. By setting the venue of the meeting here, Duke Rocha must also be showing off her strength.

Walking into the banquet hall on the second floor, the place is brightly lit, with purple silk and satin hanging everywhere on the walls; huge crystal chandeliers hang from the roof, each five or six meters high, and you can tell at a glance that they are expensive; People were drinking glasses and chatting and laughing, which was in sharp contrast to the ice and snow world outside where the cold wind was howling.

Sandra saw the wealthy side of the upper class, but did not feel any atmosphere of war.

"These people...are they all local nobles?" she asked the eldest lady in a low voice.

"Yes, without their support, we simply would not be able to gather the logistical resources needed for a large army." Elise nodded lightly, "I know this is different from before, but we can only accept the reality."

Sandra couldn't help but feel a little ironic.

She was still worried about whether she would be unable to attend the high-level strategic meeting due to identity issues. Unexpectedly, the meeting was more lively than the party.

"Where are all our people?"

"I'm looking..." Elise looked around, "Well, the man in the cyan dress is Moses, the knight of the second prince. The woman beside him, Mifesia, is stationed in the Star City Defense Force. Commander. And... did you see the lady in the violet robe? She is the famous Duke Rosia, and you have already met the person she is chatting with, the Flower Sword Mekfa."

The eldest lady ordered them one by one. There were six members of the royal guard and nine army generals.

Is this all the remaining command strength of the remnants of the Royal Army?
Sandra felt vaguely uneasy. She noticed that these soldiers did not act collectively, but mingled with the local nobles. Moreover, seven of the nine generals served in cities in the northeastern part of the mainland, and there were very few officers from the Central Forbidden Army.

"Hey Sandra, it's great to see you again!"

Suddenly someone said hello from behind.

Sandra interrupted her thoughts and turned around. Who is the other party if it’s not Ryan?

Only one day had passed, and the swelling and bruises on his face had basically disappeared, returning to his original handsome appearance. Ryan also did not wear a military uniform. He was dressed like a rich man from beginning to end, which was very suitable for an upper-class banquet.

Sandela couldn't help showing a look of disgust, "You recovered very quickly. They should have punched you twice more."

"How can you say that!" Ryan complained dissatisfied, "Who made them disobey the orders of their superiors and plan to take me away by force. I acted in pure self-defense! They also apologized afterwards and gave me healing medicine."

"Are you... Mr. Ryan Kerry?" Eliz looked at him carefully.

"Yes, I'm glad you're safe and sound, Miss Elize." Ryan gave the eldest lady a breast salute, "I'm very sorry about your father... although I rushed there as soon as I heard the news. King’s Capital, but it’s still a step too late.”

"It's not your fault." Eliz shook her head and glanced at Sandra curiously, "Do you know each other?"

"Yes, Miss Sandra and I met once in Glory Castle, and later we went to the Royal Capital together."
