Sealed Divine Throne II: Twin Sons of Dragon
Chapter 939 - 471

Chapter 939: 471

The light source array, established by the Priests Temple, exists to dispel the wraith’s aura from the frontline camp and receive nature’s spiritual energy, ensuring that the six main professionists at the frontline have abundant spiritual power to replenish themselves.

As for the Luminous Knights Order, which is most reliant on the light element, they are responsible for guarding the light source array, and they also enhance the array’s effects. After all, each of them serves as a miniature light source, working in synergy with the array.

Even before they got close, Long Dangdang and the others could feel the light element in the air becoming increasingly intense; the massive golden column of light formed by the light source array seemed like a pillar supporting the sky. The pale golden halo made them all feel as though their whole bodies were being nourished, especially Ling Menglu, who had a faint golden hue forming around her body.

Seeing this, Xi Che smiled and said, "It’s quite likely that you, Divine Maiden, could become our Luminous Knights Order’s High Priest, though I suppose there might be some objections from the Priests Temple. We lads, however, are indeed fortunate."

The Priests Temple, unlike the other five great temples, has a particularly lofty status within the Federation’s Legion. As a support profession, the priests of the Priests Temple are divided into several groups, one of which sets up array formations, and another specifically provides mass healing during wars. The priest corps isn’t formed like other legions; instead, it’s distributed among various combat units.

When war arrives, each combat unit, especially the melee units, will have priests attached. A knight group of three thousand is standardly equipped with one tenth of its number in the priest corps. The so-called Legion’s High Priest is the chief priest who leads this corps.

Ling Menglu, as a Divine Maiden of the Priests Temple, taking on the role of a legion’s High Priest is surely an overqualification. For the Luminous Knights Order, her arrival is even more significant than replacing a High Priest with a 9th Rank saint.

"You flatter me," Ling Menglu said with a slight smile, then looked at Long Dangdang beside her with a hint of a husband-and-wife partnership.

From a distance, the Luminous Knights Order had already noticed their arrival. Figures were already flying out from the camp, which turned out to be luminous unicorns.

A normal luminous unicorn is a Level 8 magical beast, with the potential to advance to Level 9, while a luminous unicorn king can reach the strength of a 10th level magical beast, akin to a 9th Rank powerful expert.

Ten knights, all riding luminous unicorns, came towards them, and the leading ones, the unicorns between their legs, had clearly reached the 9th rank.

Ten luminous unicorns descended from the sky and landed on the ground a hundred meters away from the group. The knights dismounted swiftly and strode quickly towards them, naturally followed by the luminous unicorns.

The lead knight, clad in Adamantine Cathedra battle armor and evidently an Adamantine Cathedra knight, crossed his right fist over his chest and gave Xi Che a knightly salute, "Greetings, Commander." The other luminous unicorn knights also crossed their fists over their chests to salute.

Xi Che returned the knightly salute and said, "We’re all comrades here, no need for formalities. I’ve brought your Captain and High Priest. Dangdang, let me introduce you, this is Zhong Li, the Deputy Captain who manages the affairs of the Luminous Knights Order. Zhong Li, this is Long Dangdang, the Captain. You must have heard of his exploits."

Zhong Li turned toward Long Dangdang and also lifted his helmet to reveal a resolute middle-aged face, then gave Long Dangdang a knightly salute, "Greetings, Captain."

The two exchanged knightly courtesies. Zhong Li looked at Long Dangdang with a briefly surprised expression due to Long Dangdang’s youthful appearance, but he quickly returned to normal. His surprise was evidently because Long Dangdang looked too young.

Golden Dragon Knight, champion of the Great Impartation Contest; these titles made this young man opposite him, also an Adamantine Cathedra knight, seem incredibly legendary. Adding to that, Long Dangdang had just led a demon hunting team deep behind enemy lines to destroy three wraith altars, and had earlier destroyed another behind the frontline, feats absolutely deserving of great merit. Yet, it was unexpected that he looked so young, about twenty years old? Seemingly even younger than his own son!

Xi Che said to Long Dangdang, "Dangdang, the Legion has already begun its operations. I will leave you here. Get familiar with the corps as soon as possible, Zhong Li will aid you and you can inquire about specific matters from him. I hope you can quickly integrate with the corps and achieve more merits on the battlefield."

"Yes, Commander!"

After Supreme Commander Xi Che left, Zhong Li stepped forward again and said, "Captain, let me first introduce you to the situation in our corps."

"Thank you," Long Dangdang nodded.

The Luminous Knights Order consists of ten major teams, with Zhong Li himself also being the Captain of the first team. Each Luminous Knights team consists of five hundred Luminous Knights. Among them, six are official Luminous Knights teams, and four are reserves. It’s not to say that the reserves are inferior to the official teams; their strength is quite comparable, only differing in accumulated merits. Those who had arrived were the captains of the other nine knight teams. In this great war, the entire Luminous Knights Order, including the reserves, had all come to the frontline to participate in the battle.

The current main task of the Luminous Knights Order is to guard the light source array. They had not directly engaged in the battlefield in the previous battles.
