496 Not at all(1/3)
. Listening to the other party's self-introduction, Thales couldn't help but secretly clench his fists.
Chroma.
certainly.
Thales silently said that he knew the name.
In the final battle seven hundred years ago, Prince Tormund, who was not yet the Revival King, was ambushed and defeated in the "Battle of Cold Wind" and was trapped in a tight siege.
Even the messenger crows that asked for help were hunted down one by one by the enemy's falcons in the air, and their hope was cut off.
The darkest moment was when a messenger who was responsible for raising messenger crows found an injured and exhausted messenger crow on the battlefield.
The messenger had a humble status but was young and fearless. In the eyes of everyone's despair, he hugged the last injured crow and risked his life to sneak into the siege, break through the blockade of hunting falcons and crossbows, and just before he was captured, he fell on the battlefield.
The edge lets it go.
A miracle happened.
The injured crow, which could not even fly high in the sky, finally brought back reinforcements from the Northlanders, saved the situation, saved the prince, and achieved the eternally famous "Reversal of the Cold Wind" battle.
A few years later, when Tormund became king and the Star Kingdom was founded, the lucky surviving messenger was granted the title of earl and ranked among the thirteen prominent families in the kingdom. His surname became the three most prominent families in the Western Wilderness.
one.
This legendary story was eventually reduced to one sentence and became the motto of the Croma family.
One-winged savior.(save a g, save a kg)
And the legendary messenger crow, who followed the messenger from birth to death and had only one wing left, was drawn on the album, embroidered with the flag, and printed on the robe. It became the reason for the name of the wing fort, and also became the name of the Chroma family for seven hundred years.
family crest
One-winged crow.
Thales took a deep breath and looked at the knight in front of him.
Therefore, the more than a hundred Crow Whistle light cavalry seen in the desert, the so-called "thunder crows", include those heavy cavalry that were defeated by the orcs head-on, as well as the baron who took 60% of the goods from the freaks.
…
All obey his orders.
Thales smiled and held the opponent's hand without hesitation
"Nice to meet you, His Excellency the Earl of Wingburg."
Earl Yibao returned the smile and gently let go of the prince's hand.
"I know you were tired and went through many twists and turns on your way back, Your Highness, but please take it easy."
Dele turned sideways, revealing the thirteen flags behind him.
"According to the plan, from now on, I and my two hundred Crow Whistle Qingqi, as well as one hundred people from the twelve families under Yibao, will join your escort team until you return to Fuxing Palace safely."
Thales looked stern.
"I appreciate it."
Dele glanced at the freaks and immediately frowned.
"So, these are the men sent by Baron Williams to escort you home?"
"Western Wilderness Standing Army, twenty..."
The earl glanced at it casually and then reported the numbers.
"Twenty-five people?"
"Come to escort the prince?"
Snake Shou's expression suddenly turned ugly.
"Earl, Earl..."
He seemed very nervous and hesitantly said
"Well, I, no, ahem, I, we are monsters... we are Stardust... I mean, we are Baron..."
But Dele didn't look at him and just said to Thales.
"Although Baron Fang is busy with official duties, I must take offense to say that this is very inappropriate."
"Especially, the Baron is also a direct vassal of the royal family."
Snake Hands is a little anxious
"No, that... Baron..."
Thales sighed.
"I asked the Baron not to spread his troops for me, and he had to follow the order," the prince had to take over and save the embarrassed Snake Hand.
"After all, Blade Tooth Camp has just gone through a lot of hardships."
Snake Hand looked at him gratefully.
Dele was silent for a while, and he looked at Thales steadily.
The prince smiled in response.
"I see."
After a few seconds, Dele looked around and smiled.
"Indeed, he cannot disperse his forces now."
Snake Hand wanted to say something else, but Dele had already turned around.
Snake Hand could only turn around and respond angrily to the spirit blade's muttering of "what a shame."
I saw the Earl of Yibao raising his voice and giving orders to his subordinates.
"Tell Vanke and Cady at the back to allocate the second and third teams and go to the royal capital with me."
"The prince's return team must not lose their dignity."
His voice is not loud, but his orders are clear and powerful.
Looking at the messengers rushing away, Thales couldn't help but frown.
"Your Excellency, thank you for your kindness, but it doesn't have to be like this..."
But Dele suddenly turned around
"Forgive me for insisting, Your Highness."
Thales was startled by his seriousness.
"After six years of wandering and returning to the royal capital, in the eyes of the people of the stars, will you return with great honors or return home in despair..."
Dele stared hard at Thales, as if he wanted to stare his soul out of his eyes.
"This is very important."
"Prince Thales."
Thales looked at him blankly, unable to figure out the count in front of him for a moment.
I saw Dele narrowing his eyes
"And we can never be too careful. After all, you never know where the threat will come from."
Facing the Earl who looked very serious, Thales had countless thoughts running through his heart.
The biggest thought among them was the words of the Duke of Xihuang yesterday.
The powerful nobles and lords will rush to find you, win over the prince who has not returned home for a long time, and use all means to win you to their side, turning you into a vanguard against the Fuxing Palace.
Before accepting their kindness, please remember that they are only against your father, but they are not truly loyal to you.
After a few seconds, Thales suppressed his unnecessary thoughts and nodded politely and kindly.
"Thank you, you are very considerate."
Dele also nodded respectfully and smiled again.
"Thank you for your consideration."
But the earl changed his words
"I heard that Sir Cyril has already met with you?"
Cyril Falkenhauser.
When Thales heard the name, he twitched his eyebrows unconsciously.
"Yes, just yesterday, he came... to visit me."
Dele looked at him for a while, then smiled and said
"Oh, I understand how you feel."
understand?
