Chapter 436: Cowards Join the War
The sharp claws cut through the armor transformed by the blue lion, and the monster opened its big mouth to bite the Knight of Favonius, but at the same time, it was hit in the vitals by the weapons of its companions who were supporting it from the side!
"The Knights of Favonius, we will not retreat from this battle!"
The Knight of Favonius, whose armor was shattered, fell to the ground, but then forced himself to swallow a mouthful of blood, stood up and tried to catch up with his teammates.
His weapon is not broken, he is not dead yet!
He can still kill!
However, his bloody courage could not cover up the fact that the elemental armor on his body was damaged. Immediately, two monsters changed the direction of attack and pounced on him from the left and right!
"Come on then!"
A crazy smile gradually appeared on the young Knight of Favonius's mouth.
Witnessing the death of a companion was not a big deal for a knight with free will, but for a young man who had just joined the Knights of Favonius, the loss of his companion's life was so heartbreaking.
He did not have much communication with his dead companions. Some of them lived in the wild, while others often traveled between Mondstadt and Qingquan Town, silently guarding the people walking between the two places.
But when facing death, none of these Knights of Favonius showed any fear. They all showed the courage to face death and drew their weapons against the monsters that were biting them.
"Lord Barbatos, may the Thousand Winds of Mondstadt last forever!"
The young knight roared and stabbed the monster's eyes with the weapon in his hand!
Death is not scary, what is scary is that you did not bring any help to your teammates before death!
Even if the monster's vision is not destroyed, even if it's just a little bleeding wound caused by the weapon piercing the body, it's fine!
"Knight of Favonius, we will not retreat from this battle!"
clang!
Another figure in armor stood in front of the young man, and his long sword actually blocked the monster's attack!
With his short hair flying, the man raised his leg and kicked the monster in the abdomen. He freed his sword and shook his wrist. The extremely orthodox West Wind sword technique hit the monster's throat, killing the opponent with one blow!
“You, who are you?”
The young man looked at the man with flying short hair in shock: "You are wearing the armor of the Knights, but why don't I have any impression of you."
The visitor turned around and said, "Of course you haven't seen me. I shouldn't have stayed in Mond in the first place."
"Senior Goodwin!"
A Knight of Favonius recognized the newcomer and said, "You are on an expedition with Grand Commander Falgar, why are you here?"
Goodwin rushed into the stalemate battlefield with a sword in hand, and cooperated with his teammates to knock down the struggling monsters one by one.
Both sides were experts who had undergone orthodox training in the Knights of Favonius. Even though Goodwin, an "outsider", suddenly joined in, no mistakes occurred due to the other party's deliberate cooperation.
"I lost the token that Glori gave me before I went on the expedition. When I found it, the expedition team had already left."
Goodwin's expression was bitter. "If I hadn't joined the expedition, I wouldn't have the face to return to Mondstadt. I could only hunt monsters in the wild and do my best to protect Mondstadt."
"If I hadn't seen your expedition team from afar, I probably wouldn't have known what happened until now."
The numerous combat forces liberated by Goodwin gradually formed a formation with the other side as the arrowhead, and continued to advance towards the defense line of other comrades.
"Then why do you..."
The Knights of Favonius who asked this question suddenly stopped talking, because they knew that this question was unnecessary.
Even if something happened, the opponent is still the Knight of Favonius!
"Yes, that's why I came here. Maybe I still have a glimmer of hope. If I participate in this war, will I be able to return to Mondstadt with a clear conscience? Will I be able to make up for my mistakes a little?"
"If... I can see Gloria again, hug her, listen to her talk, and bask in the sun under the windmill for an afternoon."
Goodwin's voice became lower and lower, but the sword in his hand became more and more fierce. The strength he displayed was worthy of being a Knight of Favonius chosen to follow Captain Falga to participate in the expedition.
"I want to atone for my sins and see Gloria. After I got separated from the team, I could only sneak a peek at her from afar on the top of the city wall."
"Is she doing well? Is there anything wrong with her eyes? Does she put on more clothes when the wind is strong? Does she have any new friends? Does she still like to sit on a bench and listen to the wind alone..."
Goodwin angrily chopped off the monster's head: "I don't want to go back in disgrace. I don't want to be labeled a coward after I go back, so I retreated and killed the monster with my own ridiculous method, deceiving myself that this is also for Mond!"
"In fact, I am a coward! My beloved is right there, but I don't even have the courage to meet her again. I numb myself with responsibility every day, but I don't do anything well!"
"But I will not back down this time . I will use the sword in my hand and everything I have learned in my life to protect Mondstadt and Glori!"
Goodwin held the sword and roared: "I am not a coward! I am Goodwin, the knight directly selected by Grand Master Falgar!"
"Qianfeng is my witness, Lord Barbatos is my witness, I will fight to defend Mondstadt!"
"I will forge my achievements with blood and scars, return to Mondstadt with the honor of triumph, and reunite with Glory under the windmill!"
"I will run over to hug her, say sorry to her under the windmill, and tell her that her man is not a coward!"
The wind element that burst out from the depths of his blood and soul enveloped Goodwin's entire body, and the Knight of Favonius behind him also gained the benefit of this wind element!
Goodwin raised his sword high: "For Mond!"
The knights also roared in anger, and the arrows transformed from wind elements pierced through the blood light produced by the gathering of monsters.
"For Mond!"
…
"Hey, listen quickly, there's so much shouting outside, the good smell has already come over here, but it's so quiet here."
In the Sleeping Dragon Valley, the apostle looked at Gu Sanqiu in the whirlpool, and then stepped lightly on the ground.
"I say, will your method work? I hope this guy won't show his weapon and beat me up as soon as he comes out."
"Shut up and wait for the opportunity."
"Okay, okay, I'll shut up. But you have to tell me the timing. You can't just let me wait."
The apostle spread his hands and said, "That wonderful and fragrant smell outside is attracting me. Why should I leave such a tonic alone and not enjoy it, and stay here guarding a grown man?"
"He is handsome, but I am not interested in men either."
boom!
The vortex exploded, and Gu Sanqiu stood in the air holding a spear, his hair flying like a mad snake, and his eyes, one gold and one pink, looked at the apostle.
"Haha, the rich smell and strong wish power are good things for you?"
Gu Sanqiu tossed the spear in his hand with a smile : "Okay, this is another rare piece of information."
The apostle was shocked: "Are you okay?"
He now seriously suspected that the guy below had deserted the implementation of the plan.
"Ah, so what you call assimilation is to pour some weird language into my ears? Sorry, I've been immune to this kind of thing for eight hundred years."
Gu Sanqiu pointed his gun at the apostle and said, "You said Gu Shaochong almost made you cry before, right?"
"Today, Master, I will make you cry until you die!"
