"Our territory is really too large, with too many places that need guarding: the northern Great Wall, the outer defense perimeter, the southern defense line, the western defense line, the abyss under the Royal City, and the five outer cities... Before this year, Trolian's combat force was never enough, there were always countless battles waiting for us."
Kashan suddenly sighed softly and said, "Yes, since the victory at Starry Sky City, everything has changed. My father and mother even have time to drink tea at home. They even talked about bringing me a little brother... This is your fault!"
Rod was confused: "What did I do wrong?"
"Why don't you bring me a little brother?"
"With whom? How to bring? With you..." Rod suddenly snapped back to his senses and immediately shut his mouth.
But it was too late, Kashan's entire face turned red, with red hot steam bursting out from her, making her look like a big piece of burning charcoal.
Fortunately, at this moment, a Profanity Warrior arrived, the massive figure saving Rod's life, allowing him to avoid the tragic fate of being punched away by Kashan.
After dealing with this poor Profanity Warrior, the day's harvest also came to an end. For the next three clock hours, Rod did not encounter a single monster, and had to hastily return to Courage Fortress before nightfall.
—When fighting in the wild, try to complete battles before sunset. Do not fight at night unless necessary.
Rod had no intention of challenging the rules. This was not the time for bravado; every rule of Trolian was forged with countless blood and tears.
Most combatants also returned at this time. Like him, most Guardians and First Level Combatants hadn't killed many monsters.
Wherever the Special Level Combatants went, the ground was cleaner than the Royal City Sewer.
But besides Rod, everyone else was elated, as if they could already see the victory within reach.
Suddenly, a huge cheer erupted.
The massive gates of Courage Fortress opened, and Olivia, shining in the moonlight, led her Moonlight Knight Order in triumph. Everyone rode on white Spiritual Horses, and except for Olivia, everyone wore pure white armor, dazzling in the interplay of moonlight that enveloped them.
The cheers grew louder, and everyone, including Lei Ping, gathered at the city gate.
"Long live Lady Olivia!"
"Long live the Moonlight Knights!"
The cheers became increasingly orderly. As Olivia entered, the crowd automatically parted a path, and the Guard Knights all stood tall and proud, their faces beaming with pride and joy.
Rod even saw Soron, who was following closely behind Olivia, waving cheerfully to everyone.
Someone nearby sighed: "I so want to join the Moonlight Knight Order!"
"Yes, Lady Olivia is so beautiful!"
Smack, someone got hit on the head.
"What are you daydreaming about? Fight, fight!"
"But, Lady Olivia is really beautiful. Doesn't she have a husband?"
"I don't know, but I've never heard of it. It seems like she doesn't have any children."
"Wow, does that mean Lady Olivia is single?"
Smack, another hit.
"Can't she have a lover? You think that piece of trash like you could catch her eye?"
"Why not? Do you understand what love is?"
Smack smack smack!
"I love your whole family's trash..."
Rod ignored the commotion behind him. In their eyes, Olivia was as unattainable as the stars, yet she had long made a pact with him to share the bed. If he put in the effort, he could understand why the gap between people could be so huge.
He turned his head and soon saw the second returning Special Level Combatant.
It was Allan.
He wasn't as dazzling as Olivia. A line of eighteen Green-armored Knights, mounted on White Spirit Horses, approached unhurriedly.
The only difference between Allan and his knights was that he rode a red Spiritual Horse.
The cheers instantly reached a climax, never reaching such heights before or after. People scrambled to get closer and take a look at this war god of Trolian who had rendered outstanding service to humanity.
Even Anna and Kashan made no exception. They had practically grown up listening to Allan's stories, and the long epic continued to be updated in real-time, each chapter more anticipated than the last.
Allan must have experienced many such moments before, but he showed no signs of impatience. On the contrary, he removed his helmet and smiled, waving to everyone in acknowledgment.
His Knight Order did the same.
Even their Spiritual Power Field was gentle, like a mild spring breeze, gently pushing away people who came too close.
Rod scratched his head, an inexplicable feeling arising in his heart.
Perhaps it was envy.
He thought as he surreptitiously waved at Allan.
To his surprise, Allan saw it and turned to look at Rod.
Rod was shaken. For a moment, he felt a mysterious divine light flashing in Allan's eyes.
But when he regained his senses, Allan had turned and was leaving amidst cheers and praises.
What does this mean?
Rod fell into contemplation, quite certain that he hadn't imagined it just now.
Allan's gaze was very peculiar, difficult to describe.
However, if Allan had something to say, why wouldn't he approach him directly?
