  Chapter 443 A person who wants to do great things

  The golden field is more noisy at night than during the day, especially when there is a light rain in the evening, which speeds up the flow of the river along the way, and the sides of the road become muddy.

   But now, the rain has stopped, and many creatures that are only active at night have begun to crawl out of the caves, absorb the water in the mud pits and rivers, and start their own foraging and hunting.

The Guta Basin is located in the Golden Field, close to the Jiuxuan Abyss. Its geological features are very different from other areas in the Golden Field. Its soil layer is quite thin, and dark gray rock blocks can be seen protruding from the soil layer from time to time. , and layers of rock plants grow and grow from the cracks in these rocks, forming stone forests standing on the rock formations.

  Magnetic Knight Chris doesn't like this environment. He is good at manipulating metal and interfering with the operation of precision instruments. Even if he is empty-handed against those who are armored and armored, he has no fear.

  The field he is best at is fighting in the battlefield and the city-the enemy's sword will become his sword, and the surrounding buildings and utensils will become his ammunition.

   "He is indeed related to Dragon Worship Cult, and he is very familiar... At least you didn't lie to me about this."

On the other side, the purple maple knight squinted his eyes, staring at the fire in the distant stone forest: "I recognize one of the two mountain people, he is an important member of the Dragon Worship Sect in Nanling, and he often appears with Man Ya. "

   "His appearance is very similar to Anfa. I originally thought it was a cover-up. Now that I think about it, the connection between them is closer than I imagined. Otherwise, Anfa would not have brought the important things alone."

  Magnetic Light doesn't care about the entanglement between Canaan Moore and Dragon Worship Cult, his only goal is the young knight at the campfire.

   People who are very likely to know the real reason for Night Snake's death.

  He met Night Snake twenty years ago.

  At that time, Magneto-Optic was not yet Magneto-Optic, but a newly promoted defender of the Knights, a future star who was sent to the Imperial Capital for vocational training.

   There, he met Night Snake, who was three years younger than himself. A gifted bioalchemist.

  At that time, the two did not have much close friendship until thirteen years later.

  Thirteen years later, Magneto-Optics has become the second energy level, the leader of the Defending Knights, and one of the strongest sublimation forces under the Marquis.

  But compared to the young knight who was full of confidence and full of expectations for the future, at this moment he has lost most of his enthusiasm for struggle.

Whether it's becoming stronger or taking a further step in his position, he can't see any hope... But in fact, this is not important, after all, the third level is extremely rare, and apart from talent, it depends more on the transformation of the individual's soul , and working for the Marquis of Barton, and repaying the other party's kindness, is what he is willing to do.

  He just doubted, whether he could only do this in his life.

  In his whole life, could he just go around in Nanling, suppress some rebellious mountain people, exterminate some crazy monsters, and fight wits with spies and cults from all over the world.

   Magneto-optical is not reconciled.

  He wants to become a hero, a legend that can be extolled in future generations, not just an ordinary knight leader who is like a firefighter under the command of the Marquis of Barton.

  He feels that he is special. Since he has the talent and opportunity to become a sublimator, why can't he do it...

   What about doing something 'big'?

  He wants to do big things.

   No matter what the big deal. He wants to be famous in history, like the first knight of the Black King in the past, even if he has disappeared for decades, everyone will involuntarily get excited when his name is mentioned, and slow down their voices, showing awe the kind of person.

   But he never found such an opportunity.

   Until one day, he also met two people in this golden field.

  One of them is Night Snake.

   And the other... was the one who changed the rest of his life.

  【Chris... your desire is not great, but it is very pure—wanting to have fame, to gain the admiration and envy of others. Everyone would think so, there is no need to feel ashamed]

  【It’s just that you don’t have that chance... Under Barton’s command, you don’t have the chance to become a better person... to show your true potential】

  【Look, Chris. There are always crimes emerging in this land, the nobles are singing and dancing, the people are short of food and clothing, there are foreign enemies stalking them, and there are various ministries with evil intentions... Since the death of my grandfather, the former prosperous empire has declined into what it is today, and my father barely holds the frontier. , but nothing more, and gradually fell into madness]

  【This is evil. People cannot understand each other, the nobles do not understand the pain of the common people, the common people do not understand the uneasiness of the sublimated, everyone can only think of their own interests, so there will be conflicts, there will be wars, bullying, oppression and conflicts. Exploitation]

  【The minds of the people are in a mess, and the world full of pain is drawn out by countless intertwined purposes. Only by sorting out all these thoughts and interests, can they be organized into one, and point to one direction】

  【True happiness can only come】

  【I want to change this country, change this land...and before that, Chris】

  【I need your strength】

   A kind of magic.

   A demagogic magic.

   Could it be a kind of psionic power, or it could be pure words?

   They talked a lot that night.

  Dissatisfaction with the existing system, ignorance of the ongoing suffering in this land, and boredom and hatred for a world that has remained unchanged for decades.

   They are all the same. This is true whether it is Magneto-optic itself, Night Snake, or even that Highness.

  After just one night's long talk, the Magneto-Optic Knight made up his mind to truly devote his allegiance to that Highness.

  All things and all hearts are one? Do sentient beings understand each other?

   No no no, this is not his purpose, this is not his desire.

  He just understands that His Highness's ideals and goals are far greater and more meaningful than all the things he is going to do now.

  Among the vast possibilities, Magneto-Optic is excited, trembling, trembling all over.

  Amidst the fear, he also felt an unprecedented desire.

  If, I can become a part of His Highness' power, become a member of His Highness' great cause.

   Maybe…

  He can become what he wants to be in the future, a legend praised by everyone.

   Be a part of future legends.

  【Night Snake is a member of the Academy of Intellects, and also possesses considerable talents, but was bullied by the great scholars inside the Academy of Intellects, and has not changed for many years】

  【He will be your future colleague in Nanling—the two of you seemed to know each other back then? Remember to get along well, your cooperation will release far more powerful forces than you alone]

  【We all have the same dream, the same belief, this is the root of our strength】

   Magneto-optic gradually retracts memory.

  He closed his eyes, then opened them again, staring in the direction of Ian.

Ye Snake's death not only means that the organization's arm in Nanling has been cut off, but also affects the plan of that Highness - the Nanling branch of the Lingzhi Institute that Ye Snake is in charge of has many technologies that are very important to the organization. Although those technologies originated from **** human experiments, this is a sacrifice that must be made for major events.

   Besides, it's not what they want to do. That's what the Institute of Intellectuals insisted on doing, and they were just watching from the sidelines.

"and many more."

  Suddenly, Knight Zifeng frowned slightly. She raised her hand and issued a warning: "There seems to be no life in the stone forest ahead?!"

   "The guide knight is missing?"

   Magneto-optic woke up suddenly, and he suddenly realized that his state just now was very wrong.

  He was disturbed by some external force, so that he fell into memory and wasted too much time.

   "We're exposed!"

  Standing up, the magneto-optical knight looked around—as expected, he saw many scattered 'worry stone mines' scattered around the stone forest!

This natural psychic ore can induce people to fall into the memory fragments that have the deepest impression on him, and fall into worry and worry, hence the name - and just at the edge of the golden field, there is a worry stone mine!

  As an alchemist, how could the wizard knight not buy it?

   And it was these things that inadvertently made the magneto-optical that planned to make a direct raid fall into memory, wasting an excellent opportunity to attack!

   Could it be that at that time, the guide knight already knew that someone was following him, so he bought these minerals as a trap?

Before he had time to think about it, the magneto-optic knight raised his hand, and the countless jet-black magnetic sand on his armor began to spin rapidly in the flashes of arcs and lightning, stirring the surrounding atmosphere, forming a wind of sand and iron with his arm as the core. column.

And the next moment, the lightning flashed, and the fine iron sand was spurted out by the high-speed lightning, carrying a large number of sparks that burst out in mid-air, towards the direction where the guide knight was before, the stone forest The fire in the fire rushes away!

  Hundreds of thousands of arcs of flame intertwined together, turning into a destructive power beyond the alchemy cannon, bombarding the bonfire with an incomparably shrill, atmosphere-tearing roar.

  Boom! In an instant, there was a violent explosion in the stone forest, and countless iron sand splashed and swept across, with subtle magnetism, even if someone hid in the corner of the stone forest, it was absolutely impossible to hide.

  However, his blow completely missed.

  Because at this moment, an extremely unfamiliar voice came from above the sky, but they instinctively felt a crisis.

  Zi-collapse!

   I had something to do yesterday, and I was very tired after a busy day. I really can’t write the third chapter...

   But it just so happens that tomorrow, all the hands and tails of Nanling will be completely resolved, and we will set off for the imperial capital to start a new chapter!

  (end of this chapter)
