At the age of 13, he successfully passed the examination and was awarded the Invincible Sword eight years later.
"Mashha, you should come, you who have been to the capital will be more convincing than me"
Roland moved his gaze to Masiha, Masiha's face became very heavy, and he let out a long sigh.
"Well, I don't want you to continue fighting. His Majesty the King is seriously ill and delirious. He plays with building blocks in his room every day. It is impossible to give accurate orders."
"What about the king's personal letter and decree?" Roland stood up from his chair excitedly and stared at Masha and asked.
"Of course it is to find someone to imitate. As for the decree, it is even simpler. Prime Minister Bodvar can get it." Nangong Long first answered Roland's question.
"I was deceived. I thought I was loyal to the king, but I was used as a gunman." Roland punched the table with a self-deprecating smile. Fortunately, he didn't use too much force, and the table just cracked.
"No wonder you didn't say anything to let me see the king." Roland sat back in his chair and recalled what happened in the capital, and he couldn't help muttering.
Then Masha told Roland and Olivier about the code of conduct of the civil servants headed by Bodvar in the palace.
"I am going to go to the royal capital again to personally verify what you said. If it is true, I will correct their wrong behavior as a Bruno knight."
Roland took off the Invincible Sword and its scabbard from his back and handed it to Nangong Long.
"This sword is temporarily kept with you, representing Roland's approval of you. Seeing this sword, other knights should retreat without a fight. As for nobles, as long as they have brains, they will avoid fighting with you."

"I don't recommend you to go to the royal capital. Tai Nadi may be reluctant to kill you, but Jianulong might kill you. He is more dangerous than Tai Nadi," Nangong Long said.
Unlike Tai Nadi who was fighting for hegemony, Jianulong was purely to make the situation more chaotic and kill more people.
"Dangerous, I will go even more"
"In that case, let's go out and have a private chat." Nangong Long took the Invincible Sword and put it on the table, then walked out.
Roland followed without hesitation and walked out of the tent.
.........
"This is for you, smash it when you encounter a desperate situation, and just walk in no matter what you see." Nangong Long threw the half-palm-sized crystal block to Roland, and Roland didn't think twice about accepting it.
"Recently I got a piece of news, it's hard to say whether it's true or not, believe it or not, it's up to you"
"Say it straight"
"His Royal Highness died in battle. His Majesty the King was very sad, and indeed he fell ill, but he has not reached the point of being insane. It will become like that, and it will be a meal for His Majesty by someone from Tai Na Di and Jianu Long It was drugged, and just now Her Royal Highness was inside, so I didn’t say anything.”
"How reliable is it?" Veins burst out on Roland's forehead, the anger on his face was hard to suppress, and his hands clenched into fists.
"Seven or eight, I'm trying to find a way to investigate who among them did it"
"Huh... I will also find a way to investigate this matter"
Roland exhaled forcefully, trying his best to calm himself down, but even after doing so, his face was still ugly when he returned to the tent, which could be seen at a glance.
"Captain, what did the earl tell you?" After leaving Nangonglong's camp, Olivier couldn't help asking.
"nothing"
The head of the group didn't want to say more, and Olivier didn't ask.
That afternoon, Roland left the army and hurried to the capital.
The deputy head, Olivier, led the Knights of Navarra back to the western border. There cannot be unmanned garrisons all the time, and Sachstan may enter the border whenever he breaks the agreement.
Chapter 44 The Bee Prison
On the second day after Roland left, Nangong Long sent someone to collect the bill.
Knowing that the Knights of Navarra came to attack Nangonglong, those nobles who were unwilling to support Lei Qi simply refused to send gold coins, and waited to see him die.
In the end, the loser was the Knights of Navarra, which surprised the nobles, and at the same time they became panicked. They closed the city gates and hid in their mansion, fearing that the other party would come to the door.
Nangong Longpai's incarnations No. [-] and No. [-] divided up their troops to visit them one by one. How could they be able to defend the city gate with their few troops.
Just like what Nangong Long said before, he doesn't rob common people at all, and the death knight went straight to the noble mansion. Those nobles were naturally frightened and handed over all the money, and some of them were bold enough to hide it, but the shadow demon had already figured out the nobles' little things. Where is the treasury, if it is hidden, it will be moved out by the death knight "[-]".
Of course, the guys who hid in private would inevitably be punished. If Brunu was not in chaos and couldn't immediately send officials to manage the place, Nangong Long would have abolished their titles long ago.
For the nobles who did not attend the previous meeting, Nangong Long also asked No. [-] and No. [-] to go, and the handling method was the same as before.
As for the territory of the Viscount Toyaki who directly chose to join the Duke of Gianuron, Nangong Long also sent people to visit it. His territory was exploited by the soldiers brought by Greast.
They even robbed the villagers of food for the winter, and forcibly recruited 600 people to join the army to lead the battle. Needless to say, they all died.
When Toyachi agreed to surrender, he had probably decided not to care about the life or death of his subjects, as long as he could live well.
Nangong Long discussed with Leiqi, and then Leiqi ordered Toyachi to be hanged as a warning to everyone else. The place was in the center of the square in the core town of his territory, and all the citizens could go to watch.
Some of the gold coins recovered from Toyach's mansion were distributed to his subjects to buy food and firewood.
In order to save the emergency, Nangong Long also directly distributed some food and firewood to them.
Of course, these things are all done in the name of Princess Rachel.
While Nangonglong sent troops to collect the bill, he also asked Aojie to send people to spread the word why he beat those nobles and what shameless things those nobles did, such as failing to protect the people and wanting to corrupt the people In short, it is to discredit them and let him stand on the side of justice. After all, he is supporting the princess now, so he can't ruin Leiqi's reputation.
Nangonglong cleaned up the grass on the wall, while Roland changed horses halfway and rushed to the capital day and night. Thanks to his amazing physical strength, the other person fell down early.
After a day of rest and grooming, Roland went to the palace on the second day after arriving in the capital.
Since becoming a knight, Roland has often been in and out of the palace. Even if he is transferred to the Knights of Navarre, the king will summon him once a year.
Therefore, the guards guarding the royal capital immediately let Roland go as soon as they saw him. It was much easier for Roland to enter the palace than Masha had to clear up the relationship.
"Oh, isn't this Luo Lanqing? Why did you enter the palace today?"
Jianulong stopped Roland who was going to the depths of the palace. He was quite short, about the size of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, and his figure was also very thin. He didn't have a single hair on his head, and he always wore silk hat, his eyes were narrowed into a slit, and he couldn't tell whether they were open or not.
Compared with the tall Roland, he is like a dwarf, and he is still a disgusting ugly villain.
"I have something important to report to the king." Roland said in a calm tone as much as possible, he couldn't break his face with Jianulong yet.
"Since you came here in person, it must be an extremely important matter. However, His Majesty is still resting. Why don't you let me ask His Majesty for instructions. How about Luo Lanqing going to another room to wait?" Jianulong said with a smile.
“Also good”
In order not to arouse the other party's wariness, Roland accepted Jianulong's proposal, but he did not relax his vigilance. He still remembered what Nangong Long said, if anyone of the two dukes wants to kill you, it must be Jianulong.
Roland stopped an attendant, and the attendant led him to a small room in the deep palace. There were only beds, tables and chairs, and no windows.Roland didn't think too much, anyway, he wouldn't be able to stay for long, even if he tried to force him, he would still see the king today. 0
Not long after Roland sat on the chair, there was a sound outside the door. The noisy footsteps indicated that the visitor was not alone. Roland suddenly stood up and rushed to the door, kicking the door hard, but the door remained motionless. It was supported from the outside with iron plates.
He thought that Jianulong brought people to attack him, but it didn't seem to be the case.
There was the sound of moving stone slabs on the ceiling. Roland looked up and saw a small square hole in the corner of the ceiling.
"How does it feel, Roland?" Canulon's disgusting voice came from the hole.
"What do you mean?" Roland's tone was as usual without the slightest hint of timidity.
"You who were defeated by mere rebels still have the face to come to the capital, and I will give you the punishment you deserve."
There was a piercing sound of flapping wings in the room, and countless small yellow bugs flew out of the hole. They were poisonous bees. They almost covered the entire ceiling and walls, flying randomly in the room.
"This is the punishment invented by the Marquis of Greast, the beehive prison, but I didn't expect that he, who is good at calculating, would die at the hands of the border earl, or he would die under the torture invented by himself. Very high," Canulong said in a tone of admiration and admiration.
He was actually surprised to be able to quietly put Greast's body in his bedroom in Canulon.
1.6 "Farewell, my country's strongest knight"
After Canulong finished speaking, the hole in the ceiling was closed again.
The poisonous bees in the room attacked Roland from all directions. Even if he was the strongest knight, he could not resist this attack.
Even if he died, he would die standing up, and he must not lose his pride as a knight.
"Smash it when you encounter a desperate situation"
Roland, who was about to die calmly, suddenly flashed this sentence in his mind. He quickly took out the half-palm-sized crystal from his pocket, and threw it on the floor forcefully.
A dark vortex appeared in front of him in an instant, and Roland walked into it without even thinking about it. Even if it was hell, he would try his best to survive, and then kill that old bald man.
Chapter 45 Roland Disappeared in the Chamber of Secrets
"Where is this?" Roland murmured looking at the scenery in front of him. The clear sky, the slightly yellowed grass, and the cold wind blowing across his cheeks all told him that this was an empty wilderness.
Roland calmed down and touched the red and swollen parts of his face and hands. Even though he moved quickly, he was still stung by the poisonous bee a few times, but it was not to the point of dying. After a few days of treatment, he would be fine. Back to normal.
The dark vortex behind him disappeared without a trace since he stepped out.
"Transferring people in an instant, is it a spell?" Roland guessed. There are also rumors about spells in this world, and only a few priests can use them, but he has never seen them with his own eyes.
"Let's find out if there is a village nearby."
Roland was going to ask the villagers about his location first, and then rush back to Tritor as soon as possible to join Nangong Long and get back the Invincible Sword.
Although he is brave, it does not mean that he is reckless. If he returns to the capital, he will die.Jianulong has made no secret of his murderous intentions towards him. Without the undefeated 10 swords in his hands, Jianulong can kill him with crowd tactics.
The next day, Jianulong's men came to the room of the beehive prison. The poisonous smoke had been poured through the hole in the ceiling beforehand, and the bee colony should have died long ago.
When he opened the door and walked into the room covered with poisonous bee carcasses, he was surprised to find that there was no sign of Roland at all.
Knowing that Canulon had killed Roland, Tai Nadi was furious, and his emotions were even more agitated than when his son died.
"Are you crazy?" Tai Nati who came to Jianulong glared at him angrily.
"What are you talking about?" Jianulong pretended that I didn't know anything.
"Why did you kill Roland"
"What's wrong with giving him the punishment he deserves for failing to defeat the rebels?"
Ganulong's tone of course made Tainadi even more angry, and Tainadi was also very dissatisfied with the failure of Roland's crusade, but he never thought of killing Roland, because the western border still needs black knights to garrison, otherwise Sakstan and Yaswar Will definitely find a chance to invade Bruno.
Just when Tai Nati wanted to question Jianulong, the attendant who had just gone to the beehive room ran here in a panic.
"Master Canulon Roland is missing"
"What do you mean?" An oppressive aura exuded from the short body of Jianulong.
Cold sweat broke out on the attendant's forehead, and he bravely described to Canulong what he saw in the room after opening the door.
"You mean that Roland disappeared in the secret room," Canulong said in a voice that couldn't hear the emotion.
"Yes, yes, Master Kanuron"
