Chapter 21 – The royal knights have arrived
Lin Tian continued calmly, "Harassment is not an attack. We just need to stay far enough away so they can see dragons around Bright Town."
The purpose of this move was simple.
It was to keep the Sword Saint and the incoming human reinforcements in place.
Let them know that the dragons could launch another attack at any time, making them too afraid to go out and
"Even Kasimir is here? Looks like things are getting interesting," the Sword Saintess said softly.
Seeing her, the members of the knight teams removed their helmets and bowed deeply, "Sword Saintess."
"Do you think I wanted to come? All this fuss for that guy," Kasimir said coldly.
He then walked into the town without another word.
The captain of the Silver Blade Knights, with his red curly hair and mustache, smiled flirtatiously, "Sword Saintess, it's an honor to see you again. I must admit, I'm once again captivated by your beauty. How about giving me a chance?"
"Shut up, you curly-haired fool. You're just a royal family lackey. Do you think you can talk to the Sword Saintess like that?" a bald middle-aged man beside him said irritably.
Despite being bald, his armor couldn't hide his strong muscles.
Indeed, he had grown stronger after going bald.
He was the captain of the Battle Roar Knights.
The Silver Blade captain looked aggrieved, "How can you say that? Who wouldn't be moved by the Sword Saintess? In this world, is even expressing love not allowed? Oh no! It's too dark! Too cruel! Too despicable!"
"Get lost, you're being annoying," the Battle Roar captain grumbled, pushing him away.
At this moment, the Sword Saintess spoke, "Since you're here, stay and guard. I need to go to the Enchanted Forest myself."
"The royal family has ordered that Loder be found alive or dead, but he's probably dead. If so, could you bring back his body?" the Battle Roar captain quickly called out.
Hearing this, the Silver Blade captain snorted, "Find his body? If goblins captured him, there wouldn't even be bones left. Our task is to slay the dragon and then wipe out those goblins."
"I understand. Give me three days, and I'll clear out all the goblin tribes in the Enchanted Forest!"
The Sword Saintess's voice carried a hint of anger.
The others felt a chill in their hearts.
They didn't dare say more.
Suddenly, a terrifying dragon roar echoed from the distant sky!
The earth and sky trembled!
"What is that? It's enormous!"
"Don't tell me we're here to slay that thing!"
The knights were stunned, involuntarily stepping back.
The Silver Blade captain's flirtatious expression vanished, "An ancient dragon? No wonder even the Sword Saintess couldn't handle it properly."
"Wow! I've heard ancient dragons are huge, but this is too much! Prepare for battle!"
The Battle Roar captain's voice reached its peak as he gave the order.
Everyone drew their weapons, staying on high alert.
The Sword Saintess also stopped, coldly watching the distance, ready to slay the dragon herself.
But they remained in a standoff for a long time.
The Mother of Purple Gold Dragon didn't get too close to Bright Town.
She just circled the city for about an hour before leaving.
"What's going on? Is she observing us?"
"Probably. These beasts might be preparing for an attack."
"Damn it, causing trouble as soon as we arrive. If they're coming, they should hurry up so we can deal with them and rest!"
The constant tension kept everyone on edge.
The Sword Saintess was about to personally take action to regain her honor by killing those goblins.
This novel is available on ".
But the Battle Roar captain stopped her, "Wait, Sword Saintess. If I'm not mistaken, that's a female dragon. There might be a male dragon on Dragon Island."
"If both dragons come out, we might not be able to handle it. At least, we can't guarantee the safety of the residents."
Hearing this, the Sword Saintess wanted to argue, but she remembered that only the female dragon had attacked last time.
She swallowed her words.
Dragon Island had already suffered heavy losses last time. If they dared to covet this place again, there might indeed be two dragons, or even more.
But she couldn't wait to kill those goblins and cleanse the Enchanted Forest.
She said, "Isn't Kasimir here? He has the strength."
"That lunatic? Don't count on him. He's been different since returning from Death Canyon," the Silver Blade captain said irritably.
Back then, the Death Knight had received orders to chase down invaders from an enemy nation in Death Canyon. Only Kasimir had returned.
Later, they found out that the enemy was the strongest knight team from a rival empire.
Kasimir's return proved his formidable strength.
The Sword Saintess was displeased but suppressed her emotions. She didn't care about Loder's fate, but she had to regain her lost honor.
She said, "I'll stay here. The Silver Blade Knights will handle the goblins who captured Loder."
"That works. As expected, the Sword Saintess is thoughtful. We'll start the search tomorrow!"
The Silver Blade captain smiled knowingly.
And so, over the next few days, the Mother of Purple Gold Dragon continued to harass Bright Town, putting immense pressure on them.
Some residents even moved into shelters, too afraid to go outside.
The Silver Blade Knights rode into the nearby Enchanted Forest, starting to cleanse and search the goblin tribes.
They slaughtered any goblins they encountered, doing their best to find Loder.
