Secret Knight? "Amber was also the first to hear this statement. After all, she has now roughly rationalized the aristocratic structure on the bright side of the old kingdom. It is foggy for those more secret and more special titles and titles. "What? A stalker like your hand? ”
"...not so," the Dark Raven was just in contact with the new boss for a few days. It was quite difficult to adapt to the rhythm of the other person's speech. He took a moment to respond. "The hidden knight is a non-public secret aristocrat. Collectively called the Royal Shadow Guard, who has set a special merit, the supernatural who is tainted but sheltered by the King, directly loyal to the King’s own 'dark hand'. There are always some people who secretly work for the King and won the King’s trust, but it’s a hindrance. Those who cannot be disclosed for various reasons are called 'secret knights'.
"The king will give these people a surname, which is a recognition of their merits and loyalty, but these surnames will not be recorded in the normal heraldic list and the aristocratic lineage, only the direct royal family members and a small number of people responsible for managing the list will Know the existence of these people. Generally speaking, most of the hidden knights are royal defenders - the reason is self-evident."
At the end of the day, there was a hint of pride in the face of the Dark Crow. There is no doubt that he is also a "secret aristocrat" with a "secret surname".
However, Amber is very dissatisfied with his pride: "The royal family of Ansu... not working hard in the development of production and the state system, but it is in the field of these unseen areas. It is exactly the same as the old man said, seven For a hundred years, you must have new tricks on the basis of the Royal Shadow Guard."
"Old scorpion?" The dark crow was the first time to hear this novel word, and the subconscious repeated it. "What do you mean?"
"The secret number, you don't use it casually. It's easy to be killed when you use it wrongly." Amber swayed his hand, and then looked up and down the dark crow. "Don't say this, you look like a secret knight? People are unexpected... can you be a secret knight?"
The doubts in this discourse are obvious. The face of the Dark Crow is a little awkward. However, he really can't explain to himself a "master" who has repeatedly pulled himself out of the shadow world three times. The Shadow Talent of Miss Half Elf is really unreasonable. In front of her, her own stalker in the top of the Royal Shadow Guard is like an apprentice who just entered the line.
It seems that as long as the Miss Elf continues to serve as her boss, I don’t want to think about it on the road of Shadow... I can’t, consider considering the suggestions that Gao Wen? The Duke of Cecil once mentioned, go back and practice. Two-handed swordsmanship?
Amber didn't know what the Dark Raven had thought in her mind for a moment, but she was obviously very dissatisfied with the other person's daze: "What? What about me?"
"Oh, yes, I... is also a secret knight, because I have made some credits during the period of loyalty to the royal family," the Dark Crow said hurriedly, and quickly skipped the topic, "If you are looking for If a person has a noble family name and is not on the list of normal aristocratic pedigrees, then he may also be a hidden knight."
"I think his surname is his own editor...but in case..." Amber grinned and looked up at the dark crow. "You have a list on your side? Are you still looking for it?"
"Yes!" The Dark Crow immediately took the lead and left quickly.
After the former Royal Shadow Guard left, Amber glanced at the books and files around the shelves, as well as the busy subordinates and scholars who were busy between the bookshelves. They licked their mouths and pulled their ears down slightly. It seemed to be a big deal, but not Send a word.
"Secretary..." A member of the Military Intelligence Bureau in the vicinity carefully came together. "So... are we still looking for it?"
"Of course, look for it!" Amber didn't look at the department with a sigh of relief. "Who knows if there is any clue in the list of the 'secret knight', if there is no need to turn it here?"
The officers of the Military Intelligence Bureau quickly returned to work, and the dark crows who went to the list did not let the amber wait too long.
In just ten minutes, the former Royal Shadow Guard returned to the archives with a few heavy and thick books.
“These are the names of the secret knights who have been secretly enshrined in the royal family in the past few decades, and some of their information,” the Dark Raven said as he placed the old and new books on the table next to the amber. The files are kept in another archive, and if it's the data before the foggy month... it's even harder to find, there are a lot of confusion and mistakes. If you need it, it may take some time and manpower to slowly organize. ”
"For the time being, he is just an ordinary human being. For decades, it will be enough for decades." Amber looked at the thick books, and suddenly he was hesitant when he was confident. It seemed to have a hunch. Like, she looked at the black covers, as if she had seen a face that was already obscured in memory, and her unshaven and decadent face. "Look here first, here first... you guys, don't worry about it. Those bookshelves! Come and help me find out!"
Several of the men immediately responded: "Yes, Secretary."
"Be careful, don't break it. Some books are very old," Amber said as he distributed the book to his men. "Remember, Surrey Randolph."
Soon, there was only a slight and cautious flip book in the archives.
Amber climbed onto a high chair and slowly flipped through the book in front of her eyes. One word and one word confirmed the name on the top and the picture attached between the pages. She almost held her breath, but an hour. After that, nothing was achieved.
But there was a military bureau officer who suddenly shouted: "Secretary! I found it!!"
"Take me a look!"
Amber took over the roster handed down by the subordinates. Before the words "Sari Randolph" came into view, she first saw a vivid portrait of the book that was attached to the book page and recorded with a record spell. - It was a young man under the age of 30. The black hair was neatly combed behind his head, dressed in a gown, and his appearance was not outstanding, but his eyes seemed to be carrying a cynicism.
Amber quietly watched the portrait for a moment, whispering to himself: "Ah... you have been young..."
"Is he?" One of the men came over and asked carefully.
It can be seen by individuals that this person who appears in the secret information of the royal family is definitely related to their director.
"It's him, my adoptive father." Amber whispered a whisper, his eyes swiftly swept through the relevant information of "Sari Randolph" - this mentioned the origin of this young man and mentioned his Family members and some resumes, these materials are exceptionally simple, and have become worthless over time, but Amber is still very serious, until she notices a black heraldic stamp at the end of the document, and A few words followed by a poke: defect or disappearance, delisted.
"What does this mean?" Amber pointed at the stamp and the text and looked up at the dark crow.
The dark crow looked over and looked at it slightly, frowning, seemingly hesitant, but still said: "This stamp indicates that he used to be a royal defender, and that he defected or disappeared...is literally. But for the Royal Shadow Guard Words, disappearances are seen as defections - we know so many secrets that we will be treated as 'hidden dangers' if we break the connection and cannot prove that it is dead."
"Defection... Is he a derelict royal defender?" Amber muttered. "But why did he defect?"
The dark crow looked at the roster in front of Amber and suddenly said: "If it is the action record corresponding to this roster... It should be there, I have seen it. Please wait a moment, I will find it."
This time, he returned faster than just now. After just a few minutes, he returned to the scene with a file that was obviously some years old.
"Here, the last mission record before Surry Randolph's disappearance - thank goodness, it does not involve any court struggle, not destroyed." The Dark Crow handed the information to Amber, pointing his finger at the already obscure handwriting. Said, the latter immediately took over and whispered the above content:
"...690 years...Going to the dark mountains, looking for the heritage of the Gang, not returning. No evidence of death, no suspected defection."
This is the full description of Sari Randolph's last mission as a Royal Shadow Guard.
"The dark mountains... He went to the dark mountains, and then did not return to the king to return to life, so he was considered suspected of defection?" Amber frowned and his heart turned sharply. "No... If you follow the rules of the Royal Shadow Guard, he is true. Defected... In 690, he lived in the South for more than 20 years..."
She flipped through her mind all the memories of her adoptive father, trying to outline a clearer outline from those memories to explain the father's life trajectory and explain the choices he had made –
A royal defender, won the king's trust, even the royal defender who was awarded the secret aristocratic title, went to the dark mountains to find the heritage of the Gang, and then defected without warning. He lived in the South for more than 20 years and adopted a half. The elf foster daughter was abducted with a druid with a bad style. Finally, she was arrested because she went to church to steal books. She was killed by the local aristocrats and bishops. The death is meaningless, like a crappy thief...
The turning point of everything seems to happen in the "dark mountains."
Surrey Randolph went there to find the heritage of the Gang, and now Amber knows very well that there is a legacy of Gangs!
There is a rebellious fortress there!
Did Surrey Randolph find the fortress? What did he find in the fortress? Or is it because you haven't found anything, and he has to go to the South to live in seclusion?
Judging from logic, Amber feels that the second possibility is not great. A royal defender who can be sealed by the king cannot be defamed for such reasons, and the first possibility...
According to the information held by Amber, Cecil’s explorers have been active in the rebellious fortress, and no traces of third-party invasion have been discovered. Apart from the Cecils, no one else has ever entered the ancient fortress.
But this conclusion is not 100% reliable - because the rebellious fortress is too big, and many areas are hidden or in an unexplored state for various reasons, so far the commander of the exploration team dare not say that they have mastered it. Half of the area that rebelled against the fortress, even the "rebellious" of Carmel, did not know how many divisions there were in the fortress, how many different project teams occupied different laboratories, and how many kinds of hiccups were carried out. God, the attempt to fight the magic tide.
Amber shook his head hard and suppressed all the confusing thoughts. Then he grabbed the information on the table and jumped from the high chair to the door of the archives.
The dark crow couldn’t help but shouted at the back: "Where are you going?"
"I am going to find the old man!"
With such a sentence, the figure of amber has disappeared outside the door.
The dark crow scratched his hair and looked blank - so what does the "old scorpion" secret mean?
At the same time, in the study of Silver Fort, Veronica/Ophelia is reporting to Gao Wen about some of the progress in rebuilding the church management.
"We have already spread the gods out, the middle and lower believers are convinced of the gods, and have not raised much doubts about various restructuring measures...
"The upper-level priests are somewhat sensitive, and the classic interpretation rights touch their interests, but the situation is within the controllable range.
"Stopping the heresy will help ease the relationship between the Church of Light and other sects and help restore the domestic order, but there are also the possibility that the oppressed believers will be prejudiced and resentful against the Reformed Church of Light. One point we need the propaganda support of the Office of Government Affairs...
"Da Mushou is starting to assemble and reorganize the original Knights of the Holy See. Because these Knights have been seriously reduced, they are in urgent need of reorganization and reconstruction, so the process is very smooth."
“I’ll come here first about the church’s report,” Gao Wen said after Veronica’s report came to an end. “Let’s talk about something else.”
Veronica maintains a bleak and gentle expression: "What do you want to talk about?"
"Talk to you, Miss Ophelia," Gao Wen said with a smile. "And the rebellious plan you know - I think, it is time for us to deepen this topic."
