“Mr. Veneto, shall we take action?”
In the darkness, eyes shining with green light stared closely at the expeditionary force reconnaissance team in the distance.
Veneto and Hans stood side by side, and beside them were several elite centurions, all of whom were pure-blooded Basilicata tribesmen who could transform into werewolves.
“Just wait and see.”
“good.”
The centurion looked at Veneto’s back with a somewhat complicated look. Who would have thought that his long-dead father could actually come back to life, and he was still in his prime, even younger than the patriarch Giuliano.
Veneto looked back at the elite centurion, hesitated, and then asked: “Who is Leon the Brutal to you?”
“That’s my grandpa.”
“Grandpa…I thought he was your father.”
Veneto smiled bitterly: “That old guy died? When did it happen?”
Although the wolves have a long lifespan, they rarely die on the bed of old age. If Leon had not died, there was no reason why I would not be able to see him these days.
“During a border conflict with the Mexicans, they hired a Haitian voodoo wizard.”
“Revenge?”
“Reported.”
Veneto said “Oh” and said nothing more. He was obviously still in his prime, but he had an inexplicable feeling in his heart that he was already old.
All the familiar people have died, and even the son he has never met has turned gray on his temples.
For a bloodthirsty wolf obsessed with fighting, he was obviously not very good at dealing with such complex emotions, so he cursed angrily with a South Italian curse word.
“Be prepared to take action, leaving no one behind.”
The lead cloud was blown away by the wind in time, and the bright moonlight projected down, reflecting a huge werewolf three meters high.
Veneto, who transformed into a werewolf, had steam rising from his mouth and nose. He looked back and saw that his fellow werewolves with blue-gray hair were looking at the alpha wolf, waiting for his orders.
In a daze, he regained a sense of long-lost familiarity from this strange time and space.
It was as if he had returned to the time when he led his tribe to fight against rival families in the countryside of southern Italy.
The heart is beating and the blood is boiling.
Howl——
Like a signal, the howls of wolves sounded in every corner of New Naples.
One after another, the weakest and elite pure-blood werewolves turned into wolves and jumped out of the darkness and attacked the intruders. They retreated with one blow, leaving behind bloody corpses.
Some people’s throats were torn out, some had their heads removed, and some had their hearts removed.
Captain Douglas’s reconnaissance team was also attacked. The leader of the team, the King’s Blade, threw the meat and hair stained on the chain sword on the ground. There was no emotion on the face under the helmet, but it was expected to be extremely solemn.
Just like the legend, werewolves cannot be killed by ordinary weapons. Even a lethal weapon such as a chain sword would have been cut into two by ordinary people.
“Don’t panic, hide behind me.”
Under the king’s sharp iron helmet, the sound of urn and urn sounded as a reminder, barely stabilizing the morale of the army.
Captain Douglas couldn’t help complaining: “Master Sharp Blade, where did those damn monsters come from? Couldn’t the ‘evil detection’ you installed detect their traces?”
The king’s sharp blade frowned and said: “It didn’t malfunction. The enemy appeared too fast.”
As a standard equipment produced by the Royal Academy of Spellcasters, it obviously has a detection range limit.
This group of werewolves hid far away at first, and then quickly approached when they attacked.
Combined with the news of the theft of the armory, he has reason to believe that these Texas wolves have mastered the specific parameters of “detecting evil”.
Tread——
In the deep alleys, crisp footsteps could be heard, causing the soldiers to subconsciously pick up their firearms.
Captain Douglas raised his hand: “Wait a minute, there is no movement from ‘Detect Evil’. It might be one of our own.”
The first thing that appeared in people’s sight was the candlestick that was quite eye-catching in the darkness, and behind the candlestick, the delicate face hidden by the long platinum hair.
She wore a hood with antlers, black and white close-fitting leather armor, and a pair of high-heeled iron shoes that looked very unsuitable for combat. It must be said that this outfit was really out of tune with the current environment.
Most of the soldiers’ original hostility was immediately eliminated. Such a beautiful lady was like an elf who had strayed into the mortal world.
“Ma’am, please stay, this place has been designated a war zone.”
“Miss Viviana? Are you Candle Knight Viviana?”
Captain Douglas had a look of disbelief on his face, and many British soldiers looked puzzled. When the Candle Knights were active, most of them were still children who were ignorant of the world. When they grew up, they would Three of Europe’s most famous ladies, the Knight of Candlelight and the Knight of Radiance, have become legendary figures.
“You know me?”
Miss Qianlu was a little surprised.
Captain Douglas’ tone was full of excitement: “Of course I know you, but I didn’t expect you to appear here. You suddenly retired twenty years ago. Many people felt it was a pity.”
“It’s no pity. No matter how gorgeous the performance is in the arena, it’s just a performance after all.”
Viviana frowned and drew out her sharp sword. Logically speaking, since her identity was recognized, she should kill someone and silence her. But after all, she was not the kind of person who would use any means, so she still spoke to persuade:
“Put down your weapons and surrender.”
Captain Douglas’ eyes widened: “Ms. Viviana, what do you mean? You want to stand on the side of the Texans?”
Viviana shook her head: “I stand on the side of justice.”
Douglas was about to continue speaking, but the King’s Blade on the side interrupted him: “Ms. Viviana, are you representing yourself or the German Emperor?”
It is said that Emperor Franz was weak, and the Habsburg family was full of idiots, which was weird.
But the size of the Central European Empire is there, and its industry is much stronger than that of Tsarist Russia, second only to Britain and France, and it has defeated the French army led by Napoleon III himself.
No matter how many tricks there are inside, this tiger skin is still very bluffing.
What’s more, the Habsburg family is an indispensable ally in Britain’s “Continental Balance of Power” strategy.
As for the Hohenzollern family where Viviana came from, the kinship with Queen Victoria is not worth mentioning compared with these.
“I have left my motherland and now I fight as a free man to protect the weak.”
“Damn it, are you crazy? Texas is a devil’s den, and you are helping dark creatures!”
Captain Douglas had a sense of disillusionment in his eyes. He used to be the most loyal admirer of the Candle Knight. Every time he was on vacation, he looked forward to watching a competition where the Candle Knight played.
When the Candle Knight retired quietly, he had frantically asked his friends in MI6 to find out the inside story.
As a result, when they met again, this noble white moonlight in his mind had turned into an accomplice of the evil demon.
Buzz——
The chainsaw sword spun violently.
The voice of the Kingdom Blade was like the coldest winter: “Prepare for battle.”
Ka——
The guns and cannons in the hands of the armored infantry were loaded one after another.
Douglas was filled with despair. He murmured, “We can’t win. How can we win against the Candle Knight? There are more than 20 champion knights who have fallen under her sword.”
If a champion knight is placed in the Order of St. George, he can at least be a branch leader.
