I Want To Be a Nobleman

The centaur leader fell under the siege of Cleon, Marcus, and Tiona. They witnessed Harold's death and they were as fierce as chicken blood.

Especially Tiona, she spun her body while roaring and used all her strength to swing the big sword, directly cut a big hole in the center of the centaur leader's body and passed through.

The centaur commander's body was directly chopped off by Tiona, and his death was as miserable as Harold's.

The battle outside the castle was still fierce. No matter how good the location was, the combat effectiveness of humans was still weaker than that of centaurs. The archers on the city wall had no energy to continue drawing their bows, and the centaurs were still shooting vigorously.

The strong horse body of the centaur can carry several quiveres, which allows the centaur to have enough ammunition. Now most of the soldiers on the city wall can only hold their shields and shrink their heads to defend, covering some archers with extraordinary physical strength to continue shooting.

There are more and more centaurs pouring in from the three openings. Even the so-called elite troops are ordinary humans. Without extraordinary strength, they are still no match for centaurs in terms of individual strength, let alone physical endurance. Started to get tired after fighting the centaur.

The nobles and knights were quite energetic, and the centaur guards were beaten and killed by their crowd tactics, without much effort, and began to fight the centaur on the front line.

Marcus held the head of the centaur commander to the city wall, raised his head high with both hands, and shouted with grief and anger: "The legendary centaur has been beheaded by me!"

The loud voice echoed inside and outside the castle, and the first head of the centaur commander was so huge that it could be seen clearly from a distance.

The centaur was already demoralized by this impenetrable castle, but now that the leader is dead, they have no fighting spirit to persevere.

The centaur who had been shooting arrows outside the city wall began to retreat in all directions. The nobles did not continue to pursue after killing the centaur inside the city wall. It was getting dark and the soldiers were tired. There was no need to chase and kill these ordinary centaurs.

The nobles paid their praises and respects to Marcus one by one. The biggest contributor to the victory in this battle is Marcus!

Hearing the praise and compliments from the nobles, Marcus felt no joy in his heart. He raised his head and tears welled up in his eyes. This time, his most reliable brother died in battle!

Marcus returned to the inner city and saw Harold's body and the people around him.

Tiona and Bias completely occupied Harold's body, one holding his head and the other buried in his chest. Bias had a weak personality, and Harold was her first love object, crying non-stop.

Tiona didn't cry and didn't make a sound, she just looked at Harold's face without saying a word, recalling the scenes of the two training together, dancing together, and fighting together.

The bald head had witnessed the death of his good brother many times when he was in the arena, and he had the strongest ability to bear it. He suppressed his grief and anger in his heart and went to slaughter the centaur long ago. Now he is probably thinking of it alone.

Alan walked towards Marcus and whispered: "I heard that your human sun priests can use the power of the sun to use magic, one of which can bring the dead back to life, right?"

Elves respect nature more. Although some magic can "resurrect the dead", they are rarely used.

In their view, the death of one life represents the birth of another life, reincarnation is a better choice, and resurrection of the dead is an offense.

However, Harold's situation is special. Although he is a hybrid of elves, his thoughts and customs are completely human, and he does not need to be treated according to the customs of elves.

Marcus shook his head regretfully, "The resurrection of the dead can only be used on those whose bodies are intact and who died within a day."

"The Temple of the Sun is too far away, and it will take a week at the fastest to get there! It's too late!"

Alan replied: "Not necessarily, the reason for the one-day limit is because the human soul strength is relatively low, and it will start to dissipate after a day, but the elves are different! Harold is a half-breed elf, and the soul strength is twice that of normal people !"

It was the first time for Marcus to know this secret. It turned out that Harold was not a pure-bred human, but a half-breed elf. No wonder he was so familiar with elves. You must know that even he and most nobles had a normal relationship with elves.

Then Alan whispered in Marcus's ear: "Some elf scholars have studied the mysteries of the soul in the early years. The stronger the soul, the longer it can stay. Some elves even have souls that can separate from their bodies after death!"

Can a soul survive without a body? Although the information was shocking, Marcus didn't have time to pay attention to it, and hurriedly ordered Harold's body to be packed up to prepare for the Temple of the Sun.

The Sun Temple was jointly established by the three human kingdoms, and it is not under the jurisdiction of any one country, and its status is transcendent.

However, Marcus still has some face, paying some price should be able to invite the sun priest, Tiona and Bias insisted on starting together.

Ailan will stay to take care of and manage these elves. He is the eldest brother among these elves, the oldest and the strongest.

Marcus arranged for several other knights to stay in the castle with their soldiers, and only took Cleon and two elf beauties to set off.

Harold's body was sealed after being spliced ​​together by magic and physical means, and tied to a Warcraft horse.

The nobles didn't understand Marcus' behavior. Isn't it just a knight who died in battle? Why are they mobilizing so many troops? Shrinking in the "elven homeland" waiting for the Marquis of Prague and other nobles to return from training.

Marcus and the other four rode Warcraft horses very fast. They arrived at the Temple of the Sun in only 6 days. Marcus is a well-known nobleman. Their land reclamation is a major event for several human kingdoms. The Temple of the Sun is also concerned.

The temple established a separate town, and the guards and army belonged only to the temple. The number of civilians was not large, and most of them were family members and servants related to the sun priest and sun knight.

Marcus successfully met a sun priest, who used to be from the Kingdom of Lucanir, and had a good relationship with Marcus's father, Marquis Harlaus.

Marcus indicated his intention, pointed to Harold's body in front of him and said, "He is my good brother, he died to save me in a battle with a legendary centaur!"

"Please be sure to save him, I don't care about the reward!"

Marcus also said these words very sincerely. He first stated that Harold was a hero of the human race and died in battle with honor, and then expressed his determination not to care about the price. It is land and wealth.

The sun priest was not in a hurry to talk about the price. He put his hand on Harold's forehead, closed his eyes and felt something, and shook his head after a long while: "Sorry, I can't do anything, his soul has completely dissipated, he should have been dead for a long time ?”

After hearing the priest's words, Marcus felt as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer, and took two steps back tremblingly, unable to say anything.

The bald head lowered his head and sighed softly. The Sun Priest had no reason to lie to them, and the resurrection of the dead was not very reliable. Very few nobles or knights who died in battle were resurrected.

Bias leaned down and looked at Harold's body and wept. She finally ignited hope but was ruthlessly extinguished. She couldn't stop her tears.

Tiona, on the other hand, rushed forward and grabbed the robe of the priest, and said in a bad tone: "Do you have the intention to check? He has only been dead for less than a week, how could it be possible that there is no soul left?"

Alan told Tiona in advance that the disappearance of the soul is not an instant thing from the beginning to the end. Although the human soul will slowly dissipate after a day, it will take at least a week to completely disappear.

He doesn't know how long it will take for Harold's soul, which is twice the strength of a human soul, to dissipate, but Tiona must ensure that if Harold's soul is incomplete, the sun priest must not be allowed to continue to perform resurrection!

Being resurrected with an incomplete soul is not just as simple as insanity or memory decay. In the records of the elves, lives with incomplete souls are called "demons"!

The elves in ancient times left this warning with their blood lessons. Ailan doesn't know if the magic of the sun sacrifice can resurrect the dead with crippled souls, and he doesn't know if they are aware of this taboo, but it is always good to have an extra layer of insurance.

Bias has a weak personality. Marcus and Cleon are not elves and cannot reveal secrets. This important task is handed over to Tiona. Although she has a good relationship with Harold, Tiona is a person who can be ruthless at critical moments. Never make a big mistake.

Tiona doesn't know about souls and magic, but she's not stupid. Since it takes more than a week for a human's soul to completely disappear, why can't the half-breed's be shorter?

This sun priest actually said categorically that the soul disappeared completely, obviously he was lying!

"Stop!" "Presumptuous!" Several Sun Knights beside were enraged by Tiona's brutal behavior, and rushed forward to subdue Tiona. What is the status of the Sun Priest? Except for the two legendary powerhouses, the Grand Duke of Lance and the Marquis of Prague, even the kings of the three human kingdoms are far inferior.

Sun sacrifices can accelerate the growth of crops, heal injuries, and get rid of diseases. In this era of underdeveloped agriculture and medical care, they are gods! What's more, they were originally "envoys" serving the Supreme Sun God!

"Everyone back down! Don't be unreasonable!" Sun Priest ordered several knights who had already drawn out their weapons.

"But." "My lord, you?" Several knights hesitated.

"I said to step down, I have some important matters to discuss with this honorable elf mage!" Sun Priest's tone was very calm, but it was hard to resist.

Although those knights had some reluctance on their faces, they returned to their original positions.

Bias gently pulled Tiona, shaking her teary face slightly to signal Tiona not to mess around. The sun is a common belief of all races, so although the sun priests are human beings, they are also respected by other races. , even the orcs will never attack the town where the Sun Temple is located.
