Chapter 1555: Chapter 900: White Knight Joins_1 Chapter 1555: Chapter 900: White Knight Joins_1 âIt seems that the White Knight has recognized Sarah as the heir to the Loren Kingdom. Letâs give them some more time for this reunion after a thousand years; I believe they must have a lot to talk about.â
Leo Ray looked at the two trembling figures dressed in knightâs armor and went over to where Bryan Nelsen was.
At this point, Leo Ray could completely confirm.
Although he didnât know how the White Knight had crossed the thousands of years, he was indeed one of the Apocalyptic Knights of the Loren Kingdom in the past.
âMr. Lane from the Otherworld, congratulations on your victory in the war,â Bryan Nelsen slowly stood up from the ground and nodded slightly to Leo Ray.
âMr. Nelsen is being too polite. If it werenât for your help, this victory wouldnât have come so quickly.â Leo Ray smiled sincerely at him and continued, âNo, more accurately, it was Mr. Nelsenâs arrival that guided me to sound the victory anthem. On behalf of all the soldiers who fought in the bloody battle, I thank you for your great help.â
âYouâre overpraising me,â Bryan Nelsen responded, his face still hidden beneath the chaotic whirlpool. âI merely took advantage of the situation, or more like I just went with the flow. I didnât do much.â Bryan Nelsenâs tone had a touch of respect, âYou, Mr. Lane, are the helmsman of the ship of victory. It is because of you that I saw the future of Coldflame Kingdom.â
âHowever, as a Guardian of the royal family, my intervention this time actually violates my creed. After all, each lion fighting for the throne is the blood and bones of the royal family, and I should not favor any side,â Bryan Nelsen changed the topic and continued, âTo become the Lion King that deters all the other beasts, one should be crowned through trials by blood and fire.â
âThat being said, wasnât your intervention this time to eliminate the members of the Black Abyss Brotherhood who coveted the Coldflame Throne? Isnât this fulfilling the duty of being a member of the royal familyâs Guardians?â
Leo Ray still maintained a faint smile and nodded, âSo I think Mr. Nelsen hasnât favored any side.â
âPerhaps you are right, but Iâm prepared to return to the Royal Capital and will not intervene again. That is, unless you can truly assist the Princess in ascending to the throne,â Bryan Nelsenâs voice had a touch of expectation but stopped just there, âThereâs one more thing I need to remind you of: the opponents blocking your way include not only the Crown Prince and the Second Prince, but someone else.â
âThe low-profile Fourth Prince, right?â
Grasping the deep meaning in Bryan Nelsenâs words, Leo Ray furrowed his brows thoughtfully and nodded.
Among the competing princes for the throne with Ariel, only the mysterious Fourth Prince remained hidden.
âThough Iâve conducted a series of investigations on this Fourth Prince, whose strength is on par with the Crown Prince and Second Prince, I havenât made significant progress.â
âAlthough I have some guesses about the mysterious forces behind him, these are mere guesses, and I donât have any solid evidence.â
âFrom this, one can see that both the Fourth Prince and the forces behind him are extremely cautious, and we should be vigilant. Perhaps this guy is the biggest dark horse.â
âLetâs focus on the current task of attacking and conquering territories. As long as I can seize more land, I can obtain more resources and thus have more capital for war.â
With this thought, Leo Rayâs furrowed eyebrows relaxed.
âMr. Lane, thereâs one last thing.â
In a calm voice, Bryan Nelsenâs message reached Leo Rayâs ears again.
Leo Ray looked over and saw Bryan Nelsen squatting down again in front of No. 3 Black robe manâs body, removing the Asura mask to reveal a dark and fierce old face.
âSir, Tier 5 powerhouses are never nameless. For example, I have seen this guyâs wanted poster myself in various human countries at that time,â Bryan Nelsen glanced at the face of the No. 3 Black robe man and said, âThis man was famous 1,200 years ago, he single-handedly destroyed an obscure Principality, known as âSlayer Barlowâ.â
âSince he also destroyed the Alchemist Guild, Mercenary Guild, and the Temple of Light, which were all neutral organizations in the Principality, he was hunted down by these three major neutral forces until his whereabouts were unknown.â
More astonishment filled Bryan Nelsenâs voice as he continued, âI didnât expect to see this man who has been missing for 1,200 years here again.â
âThe âSlayer Barlowâ who has been missing for 1,200 years?â
Leo Ray nodded slightly and carefully examined No. 3 Black robe manâs body.
It was obvious from his appearance that he was of human origin.
This meant that he must have used some means to stay active until today.
After all, unlike the long-lived Elf tribe, even a Tier 5 powerhouse of the Human Clan couldnât possibly live for a thousand years, as their life span would at most double.
Apart from that, another crucial clue could be deduced.
That is, Bryan Nelsen himself has been active for at least 1,200 years. Otherwise, he wouldnât have seen No. 3 Black robe manâs wanted poster with his own eyes.
âBryan Nelsen is indeed an extraordinary person.â
