Chapter 319 Dragon and King (5k)

At a glance, there were thousands of refugees, all gathered in panic outside the charred Avalon.

They didn't know why they and others were brought to this strange world, but they knew that their hometown had been burned down by dragons.

This is their only hope.

In order to get here, they had sacrificed too much on the way.

If Avalon also denied them entry.

Then they have no idea how to survive.

But even they themselves don't know why they want Avalon to accept these useless refugees.

All we can do is pray for mercy from the other party.

So many people were already kneeling on the ground, praying and kneeling towards the fortress in front of them.

He also kept reciting the taboos and prayers of the Supreme Beings.

Then, the closed high wall really opened to them!

At first people who heard the loud noise thought it was the dragon coming again and panicked.

But when they saw that the closed city fortress really slowly opened up a glimmer of life.

The crowd was excited.

Their last hope had not failed them.

Almost unable to wait for the gate to open completely, the refugees rushed towards the city.

In this regard, the knights who wanted to maintain order took a look at the frightened refugees dragging their families with them, and then sighed and tried their best to open the door as quickly as possible.

It's just that when the refugees poured into Avalon, they found that it didn't seem as beautiful as they imagined.

This is indeed the only city that has repelled the dragon attack.

But this place has already been overcrowded.

There were so many that it was difficult for them to even get in.

Obviously this is the dangerous place closest to the city wall and the closest to the dragons.

So what will it be like inside?

The refugees cannot imagine and dare not imagine.

Among the refugees, an old man with a broken leg pulled a boy with his head wrapped in gauze and limped to a soldier and begged:

"Sir, can you please give my grandson some food? Please have mercy on him. His parents are gone, and he hasn't eaten for a long time. I really beg you!"

Looking at the old man kneeling towards him and his legs that already smelled rotten, the soldier's initial dissatisfaction at having to accept another refugee had completely disappeared.

The only thing left was a look of helplessness and intolerance.

He could only dodge and turn around and said:

"Sorry, we don't have any extra food."

Because Avalon is the only pure land of the Church of Storms, it has over-accommodated a large number of Storm believers.

After this incident, their logistical pressure exploded.

Because their original way of maintaining logistics was to rely on constant turnover through trade lines.

But now, it is obvious that their previous trade lines have been completely severed.

There are indeed emergency supplies.

But because we simply don’t know how long it will last before we can wait for rescue or hope for a breakout.

Therefore, the city has strictly controlled the limited amount of food.

Although all resources will be given priority to the front line.

But even so.

It just ensured that the soldiers had enough food and medicine to use.

Because no matter how they impose supply restrictions on other people such as refugees, it is still an astronomical number.

Unless they really don't care about these people, but if they really can don't care about them, how can they let these refugees in?

The Round Table, the only one still protecting the Lionheart King's face, cannot do anything to the weak.

Plus, it's been a year since they've been stuck here.

It’s a miracle that we can still survive with that kind of logistics.

Seeing the soldier evading his words, the old man's face turned pale and almost despairing.

He was already running a high fever, and it was incredible that he could still walk and talk.

Because of this, he knew that he would not live long.

But what about his grandson? He watched with his own eyes as his son snatched the child from the fire and handed it over to him from the body of his wife. Then he watched his son die of pain due to erosion all over his body.

That's why he can persist here.

Even if his legs are rotten.

"Really not at all?"

The soldiers dodge more and more:

"Sorry, sir."

If it was a few months ago, he could still resist and give his own food and supplies to the other party.

But now, under the high-intensity battle every day, he didn't dare to do this at all, because it was very likely that he would die because of just one point.

The soldier could only turn around more and more in guilt and said:

"There will be free food distributed in the city. Although it is not much, it will not starve people to death. And maybe there is medicine at the church that can be given to you and your grandson, but please don't expect too much. "

After saying this, the soldier did not dare to stay any longer and ran away.

Avalon was the first to be eaten away, so they have been holding on to this godless world for a year.

However, the soldier just took a few steps and then stopped, as if running away, because a knight stood in front of him.

The soldier raised his head in confusion, while the other person stood under the light source that they still didn't understand where it came from and raised his hand.

The soldier lowered his head subconsciously, thinking that the honest and noble knights were dissatisfied with his collision.

But in the end, a few elf cookies were handed to him.

"Take it, kid. Then, this is also for you. You can keep half of the food for yourself, but please give this and the other half to the old man and his grandson."

The knight handed over another healing potion.

These two were scarce a year ago, and even more so now.

The soldier took them in a daze.

Then the knight smiled and prepared to leave.

The soldier saw this and asked hurriedly:

"What about you, sir?"

The knight smiled:

"I am a transcendent, I am tougher than you, so I don't need it."

After a moment of hesitation, the soldier handed the potion back:

"Sir, although I don't want to say it, in this case, you should take this more than us."

The Round Table and the Knights of Avalon are the last reliance of this fortress, and their safety is the greatest guarantee of Avalon.

The knight shook his head and refused:

"Mercy is the virtue of a knight, and charity is the honor of a knight."

The soldier still handed over the potion and said:

"But sir, you are more useful than all of us combined, you must take this."

The knight stopped, knowing what he meant, and then said to the soldiers seriously:

"Child, I know what you mean, and I know you are right. But, child, Avalon represents hope, represents the protection and mercy of the weak, I am a knight of Avalon, and I swore in front of the statue of my king."

"Say I will defend my honor and Oath, I am a knight of Avalon, so I will protect the weak and resist evil. "

"This is our oath."

The soldier hurriedly said:

"Take it so that you can better fulfill your oath."

The knight still shook his head and said:

"Child, you don't understand what I mean. This is not an oath or not. I think this road is worth everything I have to give, so I will become a knight of Avalon."

"So, I can't watch the weak suffer in front of me just to protect the weak. That would be putting the cart before the horse. Take it, child."

The knight patted the soldier on the shoulder and left. But before he really left, the knight turned back and said:

"By the way, kid, don't give all the food and supplies to others just because of me, or think too much about it."

"You are indeed a soldier, and you should indeed fulfill your duties, but this does not mean that you really have to do it without reservation. Because you have already paid!"

"You are also a human being, and you deserve to live."

At the very end, the knight raised his hand in front of his chest and knocked on the armor and said:

"May the storm and the glory of the holy spear protect you, kid."

This world may really be hopeless, but there is always a glimmer of glory.

Avalon, in the distant border, continues to hold on to the last glory and gift of the Lionheart.

And it is another border that has been swallowed up.

The king holding the holy spear has made the dragons flee in all directions.

The so-called dragon pride is simply vulnerable in the face of the absolute gap in strength.

In other words, the pride of the ancient dragons has not been left to the current dragons who only have the concept of dragons.

After killing several more dragons, Morn, who still had the lion doll hanging around his waist, did not stop.

He had to continue northward and eliminate the dragons one by one.

However, when Morn continued to move forward, the survivors called him.

"Your Majesty, are you His Majesty the Lionheart?"

They were gnawing at the land and history of the New World, and the main area of ​​the Storm Faith was the New World, so even if they avoided the parish.

The Lionheart King was still one of the most familiar supreme beings here.

His statues were almost everywhere, and they were even well preserved because they were not in the parish.

To be honest, it was a bit of a hell joke.

The king holding the holy spear also stopped:

"Yes, it's me, I'm back." Seeing that Morn really admitted his identity, the crowd knelt down excitedly.

Moon smiled and prepared to leave, but people hurriedly said:

"Your Majesty, if you want to move forward, can you take us with you? It's not too far, not far ahead. I heard there is a gathering place ahead."

Moen turned back and said:

"Are you worried about the dragons coming back? Don't worry, they won't come back. I have anchored the land I walked on with the holy spear. So, they can't come."

The reason why Moon didn't go directly to find the three dragons is because this is their world.

If they want to hide, Moon has no way to find them except to directly defeat this world.

So Moon adopted the method he used in the past-anchoring the world and rejecting dragon species.

Moen wants to compress their living space step by step and force them to confront him head-on.

When they heard this, people were surprised and said:

"Really? Your Majesty?"

Moen smiled and said:

"How could I lie to you?"

The crowd cheered immediately.

Moon was about to move forward, but people stopped him again and told him something:

"Your Majesty, if you want to continue to go north, we have heard of something that you may know, but you may not know. So please listen to it."

Because he is the Supreme, even though Moon looks very kind, people still carefully organize their words.

Moen still said gently:

"I am listening, sir."

The man said:

"We have people who escaped from the north, so they said that this world seems to have appeared earlier the further north you go. For example, we just came, but the person who escaped from the north said that he had been here for several months."

"This, do you know?"

This is also the first time that Morn showed surprise after invading this world:

"This is indeed something I just know."

This did not happen last time.

Morn was sure that the gnawing should have happened only a day ago.

So according to Morn's experience, even Avalon, which was the first to be gnawing, should have only been a day.

How could this be?

After a moment, Morn felt that he had found the answer.

That is, the three blasphemous dragons of the year were upgraded from ancient dragons, and the current ones are just ordinary dragons.

In short, the three of them are too weak.

They can't swallow everything directly like their predecessors, ignoring geography and time.

So, this unexpected thing happened.

After all, everything was swallowed up at the same time.

It also directly ignited all the eldest sons who were still alive.

If this is the case, it has been a long time since Avalon?

Morn, who realized all this, was a little anxious.

The knights in Avalon were the only noble people in the New World who were still following his will.

Morn didn't want them to get into trouble.

But if he left now, his previous efforts would be directly scrapped. The people in the south would continue to be devastated.

"You finally realized it, Richard the Lionheart."

A slightly hollow voice came from behind Morn.

Morn immediately realized who the owner of this voice was.

He turned around with the holy spear in his hand and said:

"I didn't expect you to dare to come to me, Fafnir."

"Or should I call you Drakarian?"

The world had turned gray and gold at this moment.

Behind Morn was a golden world, and in front of him was a gray and white.

The picture was as uncomfortable as an old-fashioned black and white TV that kept flashing.

Facing such a scene, Morn gently raised the holy spear.

The tip of the spear moved forward, and the gray and white would retreat without any hindrance.

"You, your power is beyond my imagination. The Holy Lance is worthy of being one of the four holy objects."

Looking at the golden world that remained unchanged even after the spear tip was retracted.

The voice of the Invisible Dragon seemed a little labored.

Obviously, it had just tried to fight against the Holy Lance, but was defeated and didn't even show any resistance.

Moen said calmly:

"Stop now, I can still let you leave peacefully."

The voice recovered slightly and laughed:

"You won't even give these poor people a chance to live?"

"It's you who don't even want to give these poor people a chance to live, I have no right to forgive you on their behalf."

The voice laughed even more:

"You are worthy of being a model of knights, the embodiment of virtue, and what a voice of justice."

"Don't talk nonsense, Drakarian, tell me what you are doing here?"

The laughter finally stopped, and turned to say calmly:

"We want you to leave and not interfere with our subsequent actions. In this way, we will return Avalon and the people inside intact. . "

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, even if we succeed in becoming a god, we have no intention of fighting to the death with you who holds the Holy Spear."

"We just want to remove the evil that has cursed us for several epochs."

Moen said calmly:

"That is your ancestors' own fault. You have crossed the line, and you have already received great forgiveness and mercy."

"If I were you, I would not let the sacrifice and stupidity of our ancestors continue to repeat."

The voice suddenly roared angrily:

"What kind of mercy is it to bear a curse from birth?"

Moen corrected:

"It was born because of the curse!"

The voice became more and more furious, and the illusory figure gradually emerged.

"Don't say these absurd and grand words, you are a human, you can't understand what we endure!"

In response, Moen just said:

"You can't understand how much you have gained!"

The sins committed by the dragons should have led to their indisputable demise.

But they still exist to this day.

"I don't want to talk about this anymore. Let me ask you one last question. Are you really unwilling to give in and leave?"

"Why should I leave? Why should I bow to evil? Why should I let their sacrifices go to waste?"

These three questions were the king's response.

And the voice whispered in the increasingly fixed dragon shadow:

"You don't think your Avalon has only suffered for a year, do you?"

The huge dragon shadow lowered its head in the gray world and stared at the king in front of it and said:

"I will tell you responsibly."

"Either you leave, or we take everything with us to destruction!"

The black dragon shadow almost covered the entire gray.

"Both Avalon and this world will be destroyed by us. Perhaps you can leave with the world you have saved."

"But you absolutely cannot take Avalon with you."

"So, are you still unwilling to give in?"

Following the dragon shadow's line of sight, there were mortals who were completely at a loss.

They dared not speak or act, and could only kneel behind the king in fear.

The dragon's voice continued to sound, and the devil-like questioning:

"Choose Avalon, who has gone through so many hardships and is still loyal to you, or these mortals who have nothing to do with you?"

Moen looked back at the trembling mortals, and then looked at the distant Avalon.

After a moment, the king lowered his head.

This made the dragon's figure more majestic, and its laughter became more ferocious:

"Very good, your majesty, you at least protected the people who are still loyal to you."

"Please rest assured that no one will know that you have bowed your head, because they will soon disappear completely from all memories of this world."

But what surprised the dragon was.

The king suddenly interrupted its chatter.

"It is indeed difficult to make a choice, but that is not for you, and now, I will formally answer your question."

"That is, I want both!"

The dragon fell silent.

After a long time, the dragon finally said to the king:

"Then give it a try."

The king also said to the dragon:

"Then give it a try!"
