Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

The sun lazily showed a half smile in the gap of the clouds, and the carriage briskly drove on the spacious road.

Ryan stretched a long waist and rode in the carriage for several days. It seemed that even people were numb. Ryan admitted in his heart that riding a carriage would be faster than walking anyway, but he still thought it was better to walk.

Unlike the previous trip to Ermida City, Ryan and his party set out from Alfa City, and went faster and faster along the way, and they got more spacious.On the main road of Elfa City, 3 carriages can go side by side, but now at least six can go side by side.Ryan listened to Falasi saying that when he arrived at the center of the imperial capital Fernando City, the road over there was the widest in the entire empire, and it was perfectly possible to walk 8 brand-new carriages side by side.

"Maybe, this is the style that an empire center should have?" Ryan thought secretly in his heart.

The sound of horseshoes in the distance made Ryan take back his thoughts.He opened the curtain of the carriage, poked his head out, and looked at the sound, only to see a dense black shadow coming towards him in the distance.

The carriage on the road almost drove to the side of the road, giving way out of the wide road.

In a moment, a black knight appeared in front of Ryan's eyes. They were all wearing golden armor.Each knight is holding the rein of the horse with his left hand, and holding a long war gun in his right hand.The horses under their seats were also covered with thick leather horse armor, showing only two horse eyes and four horse hooves.

Ryan asked Alando, who was in the same car, strangely: "Why are there so many knights here?"

Allen more thought for a while, and answered, but was completely covered by the sound of the horse hooves of the knights passing by the carriage.

After the knights had gone far away, Ryan asked again: "Alando, what did you just say?"

Allendo said: "If I guessed right, this place has entered the scope of the imperial capital."

Ryan asked, "Oh? How did you know?"

Allen smiled and said, "Apart from the imperial capital, where in the entire empire there is a cavalry army that dares to come out so blatantly."

Ryan asked, "Could it be that only the imperial capital can have cavalry?"

Allendo said: "Yes, when Fernando I established the empire, he entrusted a large number of lords. Each lord has absolute authority on his own land, as long as he can pay taxes in accordance with the rules of the empire, even if he Willing to support a huge army. In addition, there is only one requirement, that is, you cannot have a heavy cavalry army."

Lane said, "Heavy Cavalry Army?"

"Yes, in the entire empire, only Fernando City, the imperial capital, can legally own a heavy cavalry army, that is, the Royal Knights. Look at the group of knights wearing heavy armor just now, and even the horses are wearing leather horse armor. If it is not the Golden Knights, then a certain lord will betray."

Ryan said: "I understand. But Ellendo, why do you dare to say why other lords can't betray?"

Allen smiled and said, "Ryan, it seems that you don't have much experience in this area. You need to know that training a heavy cavalry requires at least one war horse and a set of cavalry-specific armaments, which is not a normal provision. Basically, a heavy cavalry like this spends enough gold coins to support 20 light infantry. The group of cavalry just now has more than 1,000 people. If a lord deliberately wants to betray, he can at least support more than 20,000. Infantry. There are not many lords who can support more than 20,000 troops in the entire empire, and they are definitely not near the imperial capital."

Ryan scratched his head. It seemed that he knew too little about the military.

Allendo said: "Actually, I don't know much. But in any case, none of the dozens of lords in the empire will be stupid enough to have heavy cavalry. Even if it is only ten guard cavalry, the emperor knows that he will immediately commit treason Punishment. Even if Senat, who has defected, he has only trained some light cavalry."

Ryan said: "Then these heavy cavalry are the knights of the Royal Knights. Isn't the Bacon we met in Giethoorn also from the Royal Knights?"

Allen nodded and said, "Don't forget that Bacon also invited us to be a guest. Since we are in the imperial capital, why not find a time to visit them."

Ryan agreed: "Okay."

Ryan asked the driver outside in a loud voice: "Excuse me, how long will it take to get to the imperial capital?"

The coachman’s voice came: "Come on, guest. This is already within the scope of the imperial capital. Didn't you see the group of knights just now?"

Ryan asked loudly, "Oh, what's the matter with those knights?"

The coachman said: "In the imperial capital, there will be a squadron of royal knights on patrol every day, and they will travel around the suburbs of the imperial capital. If you encounter them, just drive the carriage to the side of the road to avoid it."

Ryan shook his head. This is really a strange rule. Why are the Royal Knights running around?

Ryan opened the carriage curtains and looked bored at the scenery outside the window.

The two sides of the road are full of trees, neatly arranged together, a bit like the forest in my hometown, but the number of these trees is much less than the forest in my hometown.

Between the woods, there are faintly visible farms. A large number of farmers are working hard in the farmland beside the road, not knowing what they are planting.Ryan glanced at the speeding carriage, unable to recognize what it was, as if he had never seen such a plant growing on a shelf with branches, etc.

I don't know how long it took, but Ryan only felt that the sky was getting darker.Just as Ryan was considering whether to stop and take a break, a majestic city in the distance suddenly caught Ryan's vision.

Ryan was completely conquered by this city after just a glance!

The huge and thick city wall came on, giving people a strong sense of suffocation!

As the carriage drove fast, Ryan's heart was beating faster and faster. This 200-year-old city continuously exudes a breath of life, as if telling passers-by something.

Finally, the carriage drove into the city gate, and Ryan felt that his eyes were dark, and the light seemed to be lost between the sky and the earth.

Ryan was wondering when suddenly there was light in front of him. It turned out that the carriage drove into the corridor of the city gate.It is said that the wall of Fernando City can be used for horse-drawn carriages, and naturally the corridors inside its gates are also very long.

Ryan looked back at the strongest barrier in this imperial capital, sighing incessantly. It can be predicted how painful its enemies will be when they face it.

Although the carriage drove into the city, its speed was not affected at all.Ryan stared at the wide street outside the carriage window, and he suddenly thought of Giethoorn. That's right, only the vast prairie outside Giethoorn gave him this feeling.

Is this the imperial capital? The heart of a huge empire!
