Chapter 1094: Special powers

The sound of the horse trotting got closer and closer. Ren Xiaosu watched quietly as more than a dozen figures gradually appeared ahead on the dirt road and galloped towards them at full speed.

The horses looked handsome with an extremely tough stature. Among the cavalry, there were even some people leading horses without a rider on them.

These people were all wearing heavy steel armor. When Ren Xiaosu saw them for the first time, he nearly drew his black saber. In fact, it was because their armor was somewhat similar to the expeditionary army’s heavy armor.

However, these people’s armor was a shiny silver and looked much more exquisite than what the barbarians wore. They were even more attractive to look at.

But in Ren Xiaosu’s opinion, their armor was not as practical and sturdy as the barbarians’.

Melgor smiled and patted Ren Xiaosu on the shoulder. “Don’t be nervous. These are the knights of the Li and Liu clans.”

“How did they know that we were coming back?” Ren Xiaosu wondered.

“Actually, according to our arrangements, we should’ve returned a month ago. They were supposed to be waiting at the edge of the Gobi to welcome us, but we were delayed by a month due to the incident with the Eye of True Sight. I believe they were likely patrolling the area once in a while.”

“I see.” Ren Xiaosu said, “I thought they were enemies coming to kill you.”

Li Chengguo and Liu Ting had already started waving their hands wildly. The eyes of the two sheeple were red, and it looked like they had become very emotional at the thought of returning to their hometown.

For the past two years, they had been disguised as sheep and ate grass every day. Now that they had returned to their hometown and saw their clans’ knights, how could they not be excited?

“How’s the combat capability of the knights?” Ren Xiaosu asked curiously.

“They’re all veterans who were discharged from the royal army.” Melgor explained, “Actually, the royal family does not allow nobles to raise their own private armies. You can see they’re only carrying bladed weapons. They aren’t allowed to carry any lances or bows. In the Kingdom of Sorcerers, spears, bows, and firearms are all prohibited weaponry, and civilians aren’t allowed to secretly own any of such equipment.”

“Wait a sec, you just said that they weren’t allowed to have any private armies. Then what are these people?” Ren Xiaosu asked.

“At the beginning, the regulations were very strict when the order was first handed down. But it’s gradually loosened up,” Melgor answered. “Furthermore, these veterans did not have any livelihoods after they retired from the military, so they became a threat to society and order. As such, the royal family started tacitly allowing nobles to recruit a small number of soldiers to guard their homes.”

“Without modern firearms and explosives, how can these people stand up to the magus order that controls the royal family?” Ren Xiaosu said disdainfully, “Speaking of which, since the magus order has no intention of developing science, aren’t they afraid that the Northwest will launch a counterattack someday? When the Northwest develops into a stronger power, these sorcerers will be as useless as trash.”

Melgor glanced at Ren Xiaosu. “Why? You still have Fortress 178 on your mind? What’s important is that no foreign enemies have ever invaded the Kingdom of Sorcerers for the past 200 years.”

Ren Xiaosu thought to himself, ‘True, there’s no need to think so highly of all monarchies. In the history of every Central Plains dynasty, there hasn’t been one that lasted too long either, with the shortest one not even outlasting the current Kingdom of Sorcerers.‘

Historically, there were many cases of nations going into isolation and closing their borders. They sold their lands for riches, and killed loyal subjects who served them.

If not for that, there wouldn’t have been so many dynasties.

Calculating the duration, the Magi had enjoyed themselves for over 200 years now, so it was also about time for them to lose their fight.

“Yes, it said he gave it to him as a gift,” Melgor confirmed.. “Wait, I understand now. The unknown black Eye of True Sight I sensed was the one the Central Plains rider took away!”
