Lord of Glory - Chapter 104: Emergency Call
Paladin, who hurried out, immediately followed Tony through the vast camp. Along the way, no matter whether it was mercenaries with various equipment, spear sergeants in standard armor, or people wearing commoner clothes and holding iron forks, there was no human color. The militiamen put on their armor one after another, took up their weapons, and ran around the camp, creating a mess.
“Tony, what’s happening!” Coming to the disorganized crowd barely advancing, Paladin asked Tony, who was almost pushed to the ground, with a puzzled face. The latter waved his hand to push an archer in front of him away and said with a gasp, “A short while ago the Grand Duke gave an order for the three major knightly orders and soldiers with horses to move out together to attack the small Maltese advance planted fifty miles away!”
When Paladin heard this, he was taken aback for a moment. Tony beside him immediately grabbed his sleeve and pulled him over. A cavalryman on horseback immediately rushed towards the gate of the camp through the dust that was stirred up. Tony immediately looked at Paladin in a hurry, and seeing that he was not injured, he yelled at the soldier, “Walk to see people! This is a camp! How can you ride a horse!” “Excuse me, Father!” The cavalry only had time to yell, Then galloped to the outside.
At this point, Paladin suddenly showed a smile and urged Tony: “Don’t delay, let’s go.” Tony nodded in response and hurriedly led the way. Paladin, however, was secretly happy in his heart. Now that the Archduke has made the decision to raid because of the information from the doppelganger, then he, the priest with the army, can finally show his skills. And at this time, far away in the camp of the Count of White Orchid, lying in the bed to rest, but not sleepy, suddenly jumped up. He shouted directly to the outside: “Salander, come in and help me put on armor!”
As soon as the words fell, Salander, who had just dressed, came in from outside the tent. When he was about to follow the doppelganger’s instructions and take off the light armor that was neatly placed on the shelf next to him, he was glared at by the doppelganger and said: “Not that, I want the armor of the Knights of the Aries.” “But, Mr. Alfred, wearing such heavy armor so early is really…” “You heard me. Just do it. ”
Salander nodded helplessly in response and opened the chest placed next to him, inside was the beautifully held complete set of armor of the Knights of the Aries. When Salander lifted the shiny silver arm and hand armor with a pattern, the doppelganger had already put on the inner lining and put a good locket armor on his body. There was also a cap made of lockets on the head, which at once covered half of the long red hair. The doppelganger looked straight ahead and stretched his hands parallel to each other, and Salander immediately and very skillfully helped the doppelganger tie on the armor, hand armor, leg armor, knee armor. The last buckle on the chest armor, the chest that is tattooed with a tilted head of the ram, now in the general armor of white silver, looks very majestic.
When everything is ready, the shoulder armor is also put on. Salander carefully picked up the helmet and handed it to the doppelganger. He looked at the helmet, which was an ordinary helmet with a fine silver iron plate affixed to the cheek. But there is a sheep’s head on the top of the helmet, and the two sharp horns are coiled downward and attached to the helmet. It is easy to be mistaken for the demon of the abyss in mythology. It’s just white. The doppelganger took the helmet and put it gently on his head. A few strands of red hair leaked from the edge of the helmet, and only a pair of eyes and a little mouth could be seen through the gap of the helmet.
When the equipment was ready, Salander was about to ask the newly promoted Lord Baron why he got up so early in the morning and had to put on such heavy armor. The doppelganger suddenly said: “Go and help the horse put on the heavy armor.” “But.” “Hmm? Are you a baron or am I a baron?” Salander helplessly answered again, ran out of the tent, went to the nearby stables, put the robe painted with white sheep on the war horse after, there put the heavy saddle on, a piece of iron armor draped on the horse, even the horse’s head with a silver and white sheep’s head mask put on. The eyes of the warhorse were revealed in the eyes of the sheep’s head.
But just after such a heavy work was done, Salander did not have time to take a breath. Only to hear outside the camp of the Knights of the Aries, suddenly there was a sound of horses’ hooves. Salander poked his head out, but immediately saw people in other tents were also looking. After all, this is a camp, and it is still the camp of the Knights of the Aries. Usually no one would dare to ride in on horseback.
But when he looked up, he saw that their leader, Lord Count White Orchid, was already wearing full body Aries armor. That symbol of the leader of the head sheep helmet, the two coiled horns to the sides. It looks more prestigious than the ordinary knight! The Countess rode into the camp on a fitted warhorse, and the squires and knights were about to kneel down on one knee when they saw the leader arrive! “The Grand Duke called urgently, and all the Knights of the Aries are ready to go! Look at you, you are still eating breakfast!”
These knights trembled all over, but there was excitement in their eyes. The Grand Duke summoned urgently, that is to fight. They waited so many days at the Bird Fortress, and finally ushered in the battle to gain honor and prestige! As soon as the countess finished speaking, the knights jumped up excitedly, and shouted while pulling off their underwear: “Servant! Put on the armor quickly! Hurry up!”
The Countess looked at these knights who were loyal to her with some hatred and was about to turn her horse around and leave when the doppelganger came out in full armor and took the reins of the horses handed over by Salander. The two eyes revealed under that sheep’s head helmet looked right at Orinna on the horse.
Obviously, Countess Orinna is very surprised because the doppelganger is so quickly equipped. Then with a touch of relief nodded. The hand armor covered with silver metal hooked to the doppelganger. Then a flip of the whip, galloping away. The doppelganger also immediately rolled onto his horse and took the sword and shield handed over by Salander. Low said to Salander: “Put on your armor as soon as possible to keep up with me. I don’t want my impression in the eyes of the Countess to be compromised because of you.”
Salander immediately nodded with understanding, but saw the doppelganger sitting up straight, looking at the army gradually approaching outside the camp in the distance, and said: “Remember to bring my nailhead hammer and riding rifle.” He said he did not care about Salander, the horse beneath him immediately chirped and galloped towards the Countess who was just far away. Salander took a silent look, suddenly sighed and went back to his tent to start equipping his armor and weapons. The squires of the Order of the Aries are equipped with gray armor, used to distinguish the regular Aries knights.
Just after Salander entered the tent, Bob walked out from another nearby tent. At this moment, he let his attendants put on the armor for him with a gloomy face. Looking at the doppelganger that gradually disappeared into the distance, the jealousy in his eyes grew stronger and stronger.
