I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 203 Contact with the Royal Family

"Lord Alpha, what should we do next?" The monkey deftly removed Alpha's disguise, restoring his original face.

You know, Apollo's face is well-known in Fatalia. Especially after three riots and revolutions, Apollo's name has made all the nobles terrified. Now, continuing to use Apollo's identity can no longer conceal their true identity.

Alpha fell into deep thought, his eyes slowly sweeping over his teammates. In their eyes, he saw expectation and trust. He knew that as the leader of the team, he must make decisive decisions and guide everyone in the direction of progress.

"Let's go to Sera Town first." Alpha's finger finally landed on the map and he said firmly, "There, we can rest, replenish supplies, and report the results of this mission to our superiors. From now on, we will become Miss Liv's guards and followers, and do our best to protect her and complete the family mission."

At this point, the Alpha team was finally back on track. This time they went south, they had two important tasks: one was to help Liv take back what belonged to her; the other was to try to open up a seaport to the south. If possible, they also hoped to subdue some black-armored dragon riders to enhance their own strength.

The monkey nodded in agreement, and the other team members also expressed their support. Although they had just experienced a thrilling adventure, the team was more united at this moment. At present, there are more than 50 members in the team, and everyone has established the most basic trust in the life-and-death test.

On the way, Alpha and the old master enthusiastically discussed the possibility of the secret book. The old master said that he needed more time to study the book because the secrets hidden in the book might be more important than they thought. However, Alpha did not reveal to the old master that he had already started practicing the secret book.

The Five Thunder Heavenly Cover Art is actually a technique that uses the power of thunder and lightning to stimulate the unlimited growth of cells throughout the body. The prerequisite for its practice is to have a strong recovery ability, either by being born with a different body or by having strong internal strength.

Alpha possesses the Light of Praise, which is a kind of magic used to repair the body. In addition, he is also blessed by the Taiyang Sutra and the Taixuan Sutra, and his recovery ability is undoubtedly top-notch.

Even so, Alpha was still tortured to death while practicing the Five Thunder Heavenly Cover Art. Although cells can be repaired, the pain will not disappear. Every stimulation and recovery is an inhuman torture.

During the rest period in Sera Town, Alpha trained with his teammates during the day and studied the Five Thunder Heavenly Cover Art alone in his room at night. His body gradually adapted to this extreme training method, and although the progress was slow, he could feel his internal strength gradually increasing.

"Lord Alpha, why is there electricity in your body?" Liv gives Alpha a massage every night, and she can clearly feel the changes in Alpha's body.

"It's okay, it's just static electricity, you'll be fine once you get used to it." Alpha held Liv in his arms, and soon the two of them were talking openly to each other, and it was another sleepless night.

Miss Liv's mission also made considerable progress. She successfully established connections with some important people in the family and began to handle family affairs. Alpha, as her bodyguard, often stayed by her side to ensure her safety.

One day, Miss Liv received an urgent letter, which mentioned an important clue about the Black Armored Dragon Riders. It was said that a group of Black Armored Dragon Riders gathered in a remote valley, and seemed to be planning a large-scale operation.

Alpha decided to go to investigate in person with Gunn and five dragon riders, Meiyi and two ninjas. The rest of the group, led by Darwin and Monkey, returned with Liv first. With several reliable teammates such as Darwin and Jones, Alpha was also assured of Liv's safety.

After several days of arduous journey, they finally arrived at the mysterious valley. As expected, they were surprised to find a large number of black-armored cavalrymen gathering there, far exceeding their expectations. However, what was shocking was that there were not only black-armored dragon riders, but also other unidentified black-armored knights.

Normally, the Black Knights were trained by every king himself, and they were the elite force of the kingdom. However, now three different waves of Black Knights appeared in this valley at the same time, which undoubtedly meant that the Fatalia Empire was facing a huge crisis.

Either the king met with an accident and was on the verge of death, or someone was trying to usurp the throne and cause civil unrest. In any case, this indicated that a major change was about to happen to the Fatalia Empire.

Alpha and his teammates quietly lurked in the woods near the valley, closely watching the enemy's every move. They knew that in order to successfully infiltrate and obtain more key information, they must formulate a detailed plan.

When night fell, Mei Yi, with her skilled ninja skills, approached the enemy camp silently like a ghost. She cleverly avoided the patrolling soldiers and successfully sneaked into a tent that looked like the commander's.

In the tent, Meiyi found some extremely important documents and maps, which recorded in detail the plans and routes of the Black Armored Dragon Riders. It turned out that they were planning a large-scale attack on the surrounding towns, and their purpose was obviously to expand their sphere of influence.

Meiyi quickly brought the valuable information back to the woods and shared this important intelligence with her teammates. They immediately realized that time was running out and they had to take immediate action to stop the impending attack.

"You mean they are going to attack the surrounding towns? So, is this an action by the royal family against the nobles, or a conspiracy by the nobles against the royal family?" Alpha carefully analyzed the situation, but the lack of key information made him fall into deep thought.

"The Black Knights are all directly ordered by the royal family." Gunn is not only a true Black Dragon Knight, but also a warrior who has experienced many battles and is both wise and brave.

"Not necessarily. The Black Armored Knights are no longer the same knights as they were back then." Alpha raised an objection. He knew very well that the current situation was complicated and that conclusions could not be drawn lightly.

Alpha realized that the situation was far more complicated than he had imagined and that he had to be careful not to get caught up in a larger political vortex.

In the dead of night, he decided to go and investigate the enemy himself. With the help of Meiyi, he moved through the darkness like a ghost and quietly approached the enemy headquarters. With his superb stealth skills, he successfully avoided all patrols and guards.

After entering the headquarters, Alpha quickly started searching. A sealed letter caught his attention, which read "To the Leader of the Southern Rebels". He opened the letter and read it carefully, and was shocked by its contents.

It turns out that the attack plan is not only detailed, but also involves the collusion between some nobles and rebels within the Fatalia Empire. Alpha is well aware of the importance of these letters. If they are made public, the Fatalia Empire may fall into a civil war.

However, the power struggle within the empire was extremely fierce at this time, and all parties were ready to make a move. For Alpha, publishing these letters was undoubtedly a means to gain the greatest benefit, but for the people of the empire, it would be a disaster. After careful consideration, Alpha decided not to publish these letters.

Alpha cautiously left the command center and returned to his teammates' hiding place. After listening to Alpha's speech, everyone felt that the situation was serious.

Although this was a dispute within the Fatalia Empire and had nothing to do with them directly, Alpha was keenly aware that this was also a great opportunity for them to expand their influence and unify the south.

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." A gleam of light flashed in Alpha's eyes. So he began to plan again.

Under the pressure of the situation, Alpha had to re-formulate the plan. They actively collected various intelligence and sold valuable information to those who needed it at a high price. At the same time, Alpha also secretly contacted those small lords who were dissatisfied with the status quo, suggesting that they had a chance to get rid of the control of the royal family and the nobles.

Through a series of sophisticated strategies and flexible diplomatic means, Alpha successfully gained the trust and support of several small lords. They began to secretly gather their forces, preparing to launch an attack at a critical moment when unrest broke out in the empire to seize more territory and resources.

At the same time, Alpha did not forget to continue to improve his strength. He deeply understood that in this chaotic world, only with great strength can one ensure survival. Therefore, he practiced the Five Thunder Heavenly Cover Art day and night, and his internal strength became stronger and stronger, and his physical fitness reached a new height.

However, plans can never keep up with changes. On the third night, two thousand members of the Black Armor Knights quietly advanced towards the imperial capital under the cover of darkness. Obviously, the Black Armor Knights finally chose to return home. After all, the royal family's orders could no longer be transmitted outside the capital, and this was already a well-known secret.

"Since the Black-Armored Knights have chosen the nobles, their target must be Lock City. Lock City is the city with the largest number of royal families besides the imperial capital. Only by attacking Lock City can the strength of the royal family be severely hit." Gunn analyzed the current situation in a heavy tone.

"Guen, can you get in touch with the Black Armored Dragon Riders?" Alpha's eyes flashed with determination. He knew the importance of the power of the Dragon Riders to achieving the goal. After all, within the empire, the Dragon Riders still had a scale of 1,000 people, which was undoubtedly a force that could not be underestimated.

"I can try to contact them, but they are now scattered and I can't get in touch with everyone." Gunn's answer made people feel a little helpless. It seems that the events on the grassland have been reported back to the empire. In order to prevent the rebellion, the nobles completely disrupted the Black Knights.

"Then, you should try to contact a small number of Black Armored Dragon Riders first, let them lie in hiding for a while, and wait for the right opportunity." Alpha made the decision quickly. His thinking was agile and decisive.

"This may be difficult, unless there is..." Gunn stopped talking abruptly, as if hesitating about something.

"Here is the token." Before Gunn could finish his words, Alpha had already handed it to him.

"Lord Alpha, do you trust me so much?" Gun looked at the token in his hand in disbelief, which meant that he would have the power to control the Black Armored Dragon Rider.

"Trust a man when you employ him, and don't employ a man you doubt. I trust you, Knight Gunn." Alpha's eyes were frank and firm, and he did not hesitate at all. This trust shocked Gunn immensely, and also inspired his loyalty deep in his heart.

"I will definitely fulfill my mission!" Gunn's voice was filled with firm determination.

"Gunn, remember, people are the most important. No matter it's a mission or anything else, you must ensure your own safety." Alpha warned earnestly. He understood that in this power there is no end, and as long as you survive, everything is possible.

Gunn looked at Alpha deeply. He understood how heavy Alpha's trust and expectations were, and how much they weighed on his shoulders. He nodded vigorously, with a firm look in his eyes to show that he understood the deep meaning.

Not long after, Gunn quietly left the camp and embarked on a journey full of unknowns alone. Alpha stayed in the camp, continuing to carefully plan how to protect Liv and his own interests in the upcoming chaos, while looking for opportunities to expand his sphere of influence.

In the following days, Alpha spared no effort to collect information through various channels, not daring to slack off. At the same time, he was constantly practicing hard to improve his strength. He knew that in the cruel struggle in the future, only by making himself stronger could he occupy a favorable position.

Gunn secretly contacted the loyal members of the Black Armored Dragon Riders. They gathered in secret, preparing quietly, waiting for the critical moment to come and contribute their strength to Alpha.
