Chapter 552: Knights Templar, Attack!
As we all know, Alinks is the base camp of the Holy See of Light, the power of the Holy See of Light here is the most powerful, the base camp of the Holy See of the Wind God is in Nanira, the capital of the Kingdom of Ronitant, although the missionaries are all over Brandal, but there is only a small church in Alinkes, and few people usually go there, only those Ronitant merchants who come to Alinks occasionally go there to pray.

The connection between Jesolini and the Aeolian was communicated through the Aeolian priest in that church.
"It didn't go well."
Jesolini shook his head: "I have known Pope Kir of the Wind God Holy See for a long time, he is a very good person, and it may be nothing to ask him for other things, but I heard that we are going to the Wind Temple, so I refused without saying a word." ”
Tang En frowned, "Didn't you tell him about the Dark Serpent?" ”
Jesolini spread his hands: "Yes, but he doesn't believe it." ”
"Damn!"
Don cursed secretly, if this was a movie, that Kiel would undoubtedly be the pig teammate who was dragging his feet.
"Now I'm afraid I can only go to Narnira first and talk to him directly in person."
Jesolini sighed and said, "I can't leave the Holy See of Light, but Iluli and Leon can go with you, and you take the Templar Order, and I'm sure Kir will understand that we're not joking." ”
"What else to say, the other party is clearly uncooperative."
Tang En said dissatisfiedly: "If you want me to say, let's just go directly to the Wind Temple, can they still stop us?" ”
"This ...... It's a bit inappropriate. ”
Jesolini hesitated a little: "After all, it is the holy place of the Wind God Holy See, if someone wants to break into the Temple of Light, I guess I won't agree......"
"In a hurry, how can there be such idle time to quarrel with them."
Don waved his hand: "It's decided, let's take people directly to the Wind Temple, Ghasas and the Venerable will hand it over to me, and the little minions of the Dark Serpent will be handed over to the Templar Knights." When the time comes, if Kiel has any opinions, let him come to me directly. ”
"This ...... Well, I'll explain it to him afterwards. ”
Jesolini gritted his teeth and said, "In that case, let's go as soon as possible, the Knights Templar are already in combat readiness and ready to attack at any time." ”
"Let's go now."
Don stood up and said, "I'm afraid they'll run away after a long time. ”
"I'll go inform Captain Leon."
Ilully got up and left.
Don suddenly remembered something: "By the way, where is the Temple of the Wind, do you know what?" ”
Jesolini almost fell to the ground, and seeing Done's confident appearance, he thought Donn knew.
"I don't know exactly where it is, but I've heard Kiel mention it before, and it seems to be somewhere at the top of the storm."
Top of the Storm?
Don has an impression of that place, Sorager is a mountain range located in the north-west of the central part of the Ronitant Kingdom, rich in copper and iron and other metal deposits, the main peak up to 10,000 meters is called the top of the storm, shrouded in lightning storms all year round, ordinary people can not enter at all, it is said that only those who have obtained the protection of the god of wind can climb to the top of the storm.
Jesolini said helplessly: "Although you are strong and do not need to be afraid of lightning storms, but the Templars cannot, without the protection of the wind god, it may be difficult for them to reach the top of the storm, so the most they can do is to help you block the surroundings and prevent the people of the Dark Serpent from escaping." ”
"Don't let them run away has already helped me a lot."
That's when Ilully and Leon returned.
Leon said in a deep voice, "The Knights Templar are ready to go. ”
"How many people are you going to take with you?"
"All the personnel who didn't go out on the mission."
Leon's gaze was very firm: "All the Knights Templar who are training and on vacation in Arinks have a total of 1,562 people, and the worst strength is also the first order of the gold rank, and they will definitely not lag behind!" ”
The worst is also the first order of the gold level!?
Tang En was taken aback, looking at the tepid appearance of the Bright Sect, he didn't expect the power they had secretly accumulated would be so strong.
There are more than 1,500 Templars, all of whom are at the gold level or above, and if they break out with all their might, I am afraid that they will be able to overturn the entire Alinkes in an instant.
"Don't waste time, let's go now."
After Tang En finished speaking, he opened the portal to the mountain city of Bein, and the secret stronghold set up here by the Tang Chamber of Commerce had now prepared a war horse for them in advance.
Although the quality of these horses is not as good as that of the Templars, the quality is also quite good, these horses are veritable golden horses, and the Templars did not say anything, but silently chose their temporary partners.
From the mountain city of Bein to the Sorager Mountains, it would take half a month for a horse-drawn carriage to travel through Abaron and several small principalities along the way, but under the power of the Holy Light of the Templars, the speed and endurance of the horses were greatly enhanced, and they could run at a speed of sixty kilometers per hour without stopping for a day and a night without breathing.
As a result, the journey time can be greatly reduced, and the Sorager Mountains can be reached in less than five days.
Rao was like this, and Tang En still felt that the speed was too slow.
If it's a flying motorcycle comet, I'm afraid it only takes a day to feel it, but if it's a Harley, if the asphalt road can be repaired there, it won't be a big problem to get there in a day.
Unfortunately, although both Harley and Comet have started reverse design production lines, they have not yet officially started production, so there is no footage of Otherworldly Templars wearing armor riding Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
Donn regretted this.
A day later, the group officially entered the Abaronian Territory, which was no less densely populated than Taris, and they could encounter villages and towns along the way, which also made it easier for them to replenish.
But instead of turning to the city of Abaron, they headed south, along the trade route directly through the territory of Abaron.
The next day they crossed the southern border of Ilrus and entered a principality called Haruin.
Although the Duchy of Haruin was a detached principality from the Kingdom of Ronitant, it was also technically a state that split from the Empire of Ilrus.
The family of the Grand Duke of Haruin used to be a famous family in the Ilrus Empire, but they were on the wrong side, their territory was split together with Ronitant, and later wanted to return to the Ilrus Empire, but they couldn't save face, and when Ronitant was too busy to take care of himself, Grand Duke Haruin declared independence, and then the Duchy of Haruin was born.
The small principalities between the south of Illuth and Ronitant, and the principalities between the kingdoms of Grace and Solant in the north were basically born in this way.
This kind of small principality does not have much military strength, and in the eyes of several great kingdoms, it is like a child's joke, and they don't take them to heart at all, and if necessary, they can be leveled in one day.
But there was a need for a buffer between these independent kingdoms and the Illuth Empire, and since those principalities wanted to come out, the great kingdoms would naturally be happy to see them become buffer belts.
These principalities also know how many pounds and taels they have, so they generally maintain a neutral attitude, and from time to time send some benefits to the surrounding countries or something, in order to keep the crown and the title of a king on their heads.
Therefore, power is the most likely thing for people to lose themselves.
The sight he saw along the way from the Duchy of Haruin made Donn feel a lot of emotion, the people of this country are not very wealthy, similar to the villages in the southwest of the Ilrus Empire, near Ellington, of course, now that Ellington has Donn, it is completely different from before.
When he left the Principality of Haruin, Don didn't even know that he had just crossed the border again, and it was only when Iruli mentioned it to him that he knew that the Principality of Haruin was such a big place!
It is the scope of a municipal district in China on the earth.
After crossing the Duchy of Haruin non-stop, they entered the realm of the Kingdom of Ronitant.
Unlike on Earth, except for some dangerous checkpoints where there will be garrisons and fortresses, there is no strict division of the border between the countries of Plandal, except for the occasional border guard team patrolling there and pretending.
People can cross the border freely, after all, in the early days, they were all people of the same country, except for the people in power, the civilians and businessmen below did not have much sense of nationality, some residents living on the border can even have two nationalities - of course, they also have to pay double taxes, so many villages are built around the border.
It is worth mentioning that after entering the territory of Ronitant, Donn found that the flow of people here has become much larger, and the inhabitants here are significantly more affluent, even the small villages he passes through are built unconventionally, and the people are far better dressed than the civilians of the Ilrus Empire.
Stimulated by trade demand, the agriculture, textile, forestry, food and other industries related to people's clothing, food, housing and transportation in the Kingdom of Ronitant have developed very rapidly.
Profit is indeed the most important factor for human progress, because the frequent and active economic activity makes the kingdom of Ronitant full of vitality, and the monetary value of gold coins is brought into full play here, making the country prosperous.
I'm afraid that Victor saw the changes of Ronitant under the stimulus of finance and trade, so he was so persistent in implementing reforms in the Ilrus Empire, trying to save this former "empire" at sunset.
On the morning of the fifth day, Donn and his wife saw the towering Sorager Mountains, but in the evening they finally reached the foot of the mountain and entered a small town called Banstushire. (To be continued.) )
