Chapter 105 Crazy?
In the Saint Mile Province and the Northern Province, the banner of Augusta is a pass. A large number of knights passing by will at most attract curious eyes.
The nearby nobles and knights will also come to visit.
But when you cross the towering fortress and enter the Monta Province, Count Augusta will be greeted by some vigilant eyes.
Of course, there are also some nobles who belong to the circle of northern nobles and belong to the outer circle of the northern nobles.
And the Melgen Monastery is even further south, almost on the edge of the Monta Province.
Here, belonging to the monastery's circle of influence, the relatively few nobles who are inclined to the church in the Locke Kingdom have become the mainstream here.
Derek's arrival naturally caused panic, and a large number of knights passing through could cause chaos at any time.
And if an armed conflict breaks out, it is conceivable who will suffer.
God can't help his believers at this time. Count Augusta's knight sword is obviously harder than God's Bible.
Fortunately, the rules of the Augusta Knights are strict. Not to mention various scandals, there is not even a knight who has left the group.
Derek can proudly say that every knight here was trained by himself. Eighty percent of the knights are from commoners, and the rest are mostly from noble second sons and small noble families.
Moreover, every knight has been screened by the panel.
This is a knight group with strong cohesion that is rare in this era. Except for the church knight group, Derek can't imagine which other knight group can compare with his cohesion.
Moreover, in terms of combat effectiveness, the Augusta Knights can definitely crush any opponent.
As a local snake, Melgen Monastery has of course received the news a long time ago.
They invited Archbishop John, on the one hand, to accept this betrayer of the Pope to strengthen the momentum of the monastery.
On the other hand, they still hope to persuade Count Augusta, a new and powerful noble.
In fact, the monastery has been working hard to expand its influence, especially to the northern nobles.
Similar to Derek's younger sister Eiffel Ferreira, she is a nun in the monastery.
They thought of many possibilities, including Derek bringing troops to visit.
Derek was not the only one who thought of the armed pilgrimage. King Louis I had done the same thing, and then there was the famous war of secession.
But they didn't expect that Derek brought a whole knight group, and it was a knight group composed of northern knights.
The northern knights, who had been somewhat lonely in recent years, became dazzling again through the war against the barbarians and the Kingdom of the Holy Cross.
If the Mergen Monastery said that there was no pressure at all, it would be a lie.
When Derek arrived at the monastery, a church knight group was waiting in full battle array.
As a monastery knight group, the Mergen Monastery Knights have always been the best among the knight groups, selecting the most pious noble knights and creating the best weapons and armor.
When Derek met with Captain Burdette Kurtz, the first thing he saw was the silver-shining monastery knights.
The monastery knights with faith looked very energetic, holding their heads high and their fighting spirit high.
Even when facing the Augusta Knights who came out of the bloody storm, they were not afraid at all.
And Captain Burdette also quietly looked at the knights of the Augusta Knights.
The black armor was obviously thicker.
The fully armed knights did not look as excited as their knights.
Indifference, yes, it was a kind of indifference.
The way they looked at the monastery knights was like looking at the flowers and plants on the roadside, without any extra emotions.
This brought a great sense of oppression to Captain Burdette.
"Count Augusta, Bishop John, I am Burdette Kurtz, the leader of the monastery knights, and I greet you."
"Knight Burdette, is this the monastery's welcome ceremony?"
Derek pointed his whip at the monastery knights lined up in the distance.
Burdette lowered his head and was very humble: "Mr. Count, please forgive my cowardice. It is your reputation and the reputation of the Northern Knights that make some Northern nobles uneasy, so I appear here to welcome your arrival."
Burdette was so humble that it was not easy to take the opportunity to get angry.
"The Knights of Augusta are not comparable to the old knights." Derek's words were a bit aggressive.
Even if Burdette swallowed his anger, he would not have no reaction at all.
Otherwise, the face of the Abbey Knights would be completely lost. When they meet the Knights of Augusta in the future, they might as well raise their hands and surrender.
So, for the first time, he raised his head and said firmly word by word: "My Lord, I admire your military exploits, but the honor of the Abbey Knights cannot be tarnished."
Derek looked at Captain Burdette. The other party's expression was firm, and his performance showed that he was a qualified knight.
Compared with most fool knights, he was already very good.
But... Derek chuckled. He had too many knights like this.
"Defile? I like this word, and I like a little more interest, the interest of resistance."
Derrick suddenly pulled down his mask, stretched out his left hand and clenched his fist: "Simon, Archbishop John is in your hands."
"No problem, Earl."
Simon suddenly reached out and pulled Archbishop John onto his horse. The latter looked a little thin in the arms of the burly knight.
Before Burdette realized what was going to happen, Derek had already waved his left hand downward: "Charge, knights."
The brown warhorse suddenly burst out, with strong limbs and powerful strength, protruding a section of the formation.
The Knights started as a whole.
The loud sound of horse hooves came suddenly like a storm.
Boom!
The knights bypassed Burdette and his knight attendants and merged into one group.
The direction of the Augusta Knights' charge was the Mergen Monastery Knights.
"My Lord, what do you want to do?"
Burdette looked at the Augusta Knights in horror, and his whole body was cold.
The purpose of his coming here was to deter the Northland Knights, not to provoke a war.
And no one thought that Derek dared to take the risk of the world.
Is it crazy to attack the monastery knights at this time? What's the benefit?
Burdette had ten thousand reasons to convince himself that Derek would not do something crazy.
But reality told him that the other party was doing it.
On the other hand, the Abbey Knights were not prepared at all.
Before they came, everyone told them that they were only here for an armed parade and there would be no war.
They wanted to intimidate the Northern Knights and show the style of the Abbey Knights.
They did the same thing before this.
Shining armor, high morale, everything was so perfect.
