The Strongest Knight

Rumble!

The Gray Crescent was unable to withstand the power of the Twin Sea Windmills, but Gray was already prepared to evacuate.

While the two skills were dissolving and confronting each other, the three knight elders each condensed a knight skill towards Gray. Gray slashed out with gray sword energy to offset some of the damage, propped up the Zhoutian shield, and took it.

With the help of the three knight skills, Gray retreated quickly.

Gray felt blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, but under the monster mask, he looked as ferocious as ever to outsiders and no one could see his miserable condition clearly.

"Damn you Fallen!"

Looking at the direction where Gray disappeared, Mo Shi and the three elders of Huangyan City turned pale.

......

In a valley outside the Red River Valley.

Gray took off the monster mask and reached out to use the spring water flowing beside him to clean the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"I suffered some minor injuries, but at least I got back some interest, so it was worth it."

Huangyan City lost an elder-level figure this time, and was severely damaged. The Red River Valley will have the advantage when it comes to the mithril mine.

Gray adjusted his breath.

His current physical strength is no weaker than that of a formal knight, and it won’t take much time for him to recover from this minor injury.

Gray thought back to his gray state just now.

He can confront the middle-level knight head-on, and with his sharp martial arts skills, he can even suppress the middle-level knight slightly. If the conditions are right, it is not impossible to kill him.

However, the gray state lasts for too short a time. After withstanding the knight skills of the three knight elders, the gray energy in Gray's body is completely exhausted.

"The battle only lasted two minutes. I still have half a minute to maintain my sane anger state. In a high-level battle, I can launch several attacks in a short period of time, so a few minutes is enough."

“My goal was to successfully kill at least one elder-level being, and now I have accomplished it.

Gray summed up everything, took off his black robe, put on his usual knight's close-fitting cloth armor, touched his bald head, summoned Black Feather, touched Black Feather's head, and Gray turned over on it.

During the battle with Moshi, Gray did not summon Black Feather.

Unless it evolves again, Black Feather will be of limited help to Gray and can only exist as a flying mount.

Riding on Black Feather's back, Gray flew towards the Red River Valley openly.

Hei Yu's flying speed was still extremely fast, more than twice as fast as Gray's speed running on the ground, and he soon caught up with the Red River Valley group who were still on their way.

......

A few days later, in the conference room of Red River Valley City Hall.

"Bang!" The newly appointed director of the Red River Valley Mining Bureau, who was the person to preside over the negotiations, slapped the table hard.

"Don't think we don't know. You bastards were attacked by the Fallen on your way back. Even your Third Elder's life force was dug out and eaten by the Fallen monsters, right?"

"I, the Red River Valley councillor, am not afraid of 4 vs 5. Now it's 4 vs 4. Do you think Huangyan City has a chance of winning if we fight again?"

There is no mine in the Red River Valley area, nor is there the strength to possess hard resources such as minerals as in the surrounding areas. The area is focused on developing trade, and therefore there was no such thing as a Mining Bureau before.

When the mithril mine appeared this time, the congressmen, led by Gray, discussed the matter and felt that it was time for the Red River Valley to develop hard resource industries such as mining. Therefore, they directly selected a hot-tempered political talent in the Red River Valley to serve as the director of the Bureau of Mines.

The director of the Trusted Mining Bureau is named Cologne. He graduated from the Red River Valley Business School. He has no talent as a mage, wizard, or even a knight, but he has an extremely flexible mind and a keen political sense.

A few years after graduation, he started working as a clerk in the Red River Valley City Hall and was doing very well. He was even running for the next position of director of the Red River Valley Commerce Bureau.

Gray met Colon several times and found him very much to his liking, so he decided to establish the Bureau of Mines and appointed him as the director.

In view of the strength shown by Gray this time and his achievement in fighting against the great elder Mo Shi of Huangyan City alone, the Mining Bureau was placed under Gray's leadership and he alone accounted for 40% of the harvest.

Colon did not disappoint Gray. During the negotiation, he choked the negotiating representative from Huangyan City so much that he felt dizzy and speechless.

After talking for three hours.

The Huangyan City negotiators left the Red River Valley with a contract in their hands, looking disappointed.

The profits he obtained for Huangyan City were half a percent less than the minimum amount authorized by the Great Elder. He was afraid that he would have to resign after returning.

In the conference room, Cologne took the cup of fragrant tea handed to him by the secretary beside him, took a sip, picked up the contract with stripes on it and flicked it lightly.

"Prepare the horses! Go to the castle to meet the councillor!"

"Yes! Director!"

The secretary walked out briskly to make arrangements, and a few minutes later entered the conference room to ask Cologne to leave.

Colon walked out of the meeting room and came to the gate of the City Hall. The City Hall gathered middle-level figures from the entire Red River Valley and was the backbone of the rule of the four councillors. It was bustling as usual with people coming and going.

Looking at the towering city hall, Cologne confidently stepped into the carriage amid the envious gazes of the passers-by.

Appreciated by Congressman Gray, he rose rapidly to become the director of the Red River Valley at a young age. He is a young elite that everyone needs to look up to.

"It is said that in this battle with Huangyan City, Lord Gray showed great combat power and is already the leader of the four councilors of the Red River Valley."

When Cologne thought of this, his heart was burning with excitement. He certainly understood the principle of having a big mountain to lean on for shade.

As long as Gray was there, his position as director of the Bureau of Mines would never be in doubt.

Except for the four congressmen Gray, outsiders did not know that the four congressmen had signed a mutual assistance agreement, and they thought that there would be political struggles among the four congressmen.

Gray and the others did not explain this. This was necessary because if someone tried to deal with the Red River Valley by taking advantage of the relationship between the four congressmen, the congressmen would easily know the existence of their opponents.

The carriage drove northwest from the City Hall to the upper right area of ​​the Red River Valley.

Half an hour later, the carriage stopped in the square in front of the arch bridge of Grey Knight Castle.

A servant from the Grey Knight Castle recognized Cologne's identity and took the initiative to guide the carriage to the carriage space.

"Guard, is the senator in the castle?" Cologne gave enough face to the people from the Grey Knight Castle, even if they were servants, and asked in a calm tone.

The servant shook his head. "I don't know either. I have to go in and report it. But the councillor rarely goes out, so he should be in the castle."

Another figure came out to take over the servant's duties, and this servant led Cologne along the arch bridge.

The meteor crocodile that was looming under the arch bridge made Cologne a little nervous. This was the first time he took the initiative to enter the castle to find Gray.

Cologne squeezed the contract in his hand and felt a little angry. The congressman should be satisfied with him when he saw this, right?

When we reached the end of the arch bridge, the soldiers on the city wall verified our identities and opened the side door.

Cologne followed the servant into the door frame. The passage was seven or eight meters long, which showed the thickness of the castle's outer walls.

As he moved forward, Cologne saw many cavalrymen in training.

A beautiful figure came towards them with a group of cavalrymen, and the servant hurriedly took Cologne to get out of the way.

With her long and powerful legs and pretty and heroic face, Cologne was attracted by this female knight at first sight.

He had never seen a woman with such a strong personality and heroic spirit.

The female knight sensed Cologne's gaze and frowned slightly, but said nothing. She led the cavalry past. The gate of the castle in the distance opened and the cavalrymen filed out.

"This is the congressman's eldest disciple, Lady Amy! You shouldn't stare at her like that!" The servant patted his chest and added.
