I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 229 Going down the mountain

Athena left quietly, her figure gradually disappeared in the distance, leaving behind only a precious Dou Qi manual. Alpha hugged the manual tightly, feeling the remaining warmth and elegant body fragrance in his arms, and he knew that his future responsibilities would be even greater.

Athena told me that this mission actually represents the tenth key of the Ten Commandments, which is a sacred artifact - the Pure Heart. In those days, the Church was extremely powerful and dominated the world. In order to show the power of the Ten Commandments, the Church gave the nine knights and the Pope the ten sacred artifacts representing the power of the Ten Commandments. However, the gears of fate began to turn, and the existence of this sacred artifact triggered countless disputes and conspiracies.

According to legend, the Pure Heart possesses an extremely powerful force. It contains a sacred fighting spirit that can give the holder unparalleled strength and courage. Alpha understands that the significance of this artifact lies not only in its power, but also in the responsibility and mission it symbolizes. He knows that he must protect this artifact and prevent it from falling into the hands of evil.

However, the fate of the artifact is always full of variables. As time goes by, the power struggle within the Church becomes increasingly fierce, and all parties are eyeing the Pure Heart. Alpha faces unprecedented pressure and challenges. He must find his own direction in this vortex of power, protect the artifact, and stick to his beliefs.

In this world full of crises and challenges, how will Alpha face the difficulties of the future? Can he protect his pure heart and prevent it from being tainted by evil? All these will be answered in his courage and wisdom.

But now the power of the Church is far less than before, and even the ten holy rings representing the Church of Light are lost. In order to retrieve these holy rings, the Church launched a holy war and recovered nine of them, but the last holy ring cannot be retrieved through war, and it must be taken back by someone who represents purity.

However, Alpha is not a pure person at all, and no one understands what the Pope's intentions are. The best way at present is to use a child who has not experienced much of the world, and use the secret method of the Church to make him break through the bronze knight level. Only when he reaches these two powers can he wear the holy ring. However, although this method is feasible, it cannot obtain the true power of the holy ring.

Alpha usually didn't spend energy thinking about these complicated issues, because he deeply understood how important the mission of the Holy Ring was. He knew that only after he had completely consolidated his territory could he observe and deal with other things with peace of mind.

Alpha has a deep feeling for the Bess Peak. At this moment, it is time to go down the mountain, but he is not in a hurry to return to the noisy society. Instead, Alpha chooses to rest in Mingyue's house and enjoy this moment of tranquility. Here, he can relax his body and mind, sort out his complicated thoughts, and be fully prepared for the upcoming challenges.

Alpha knows that he will have to face all kinds of noise and interference after returning to society. However, he also firmly believes that by resting in the Moonlight House, he will be able to face these challenges in a better state. With more firm faith and determination, he will continue to complete the mission of the Holy Ring and create a better future for himself and the people he protects.

"Lord Alpha, we can all clearly feel the flow of internal energy." Fanxing excitedly asked Alpha for credit.

"Well, well done, keep up the good work." Alpha gently touched Fanxing's head, signaling them to keep working hard.

"Lord Alpha, the situation in the Free Alliance has been a little unusual recently. It seems that a mysterious force has mixed in, making the atmosphere here very turbid and full of unsafe factors." Fayana seemed to have sensed some unusual clues from the information she had obtained through recent reconnaissance.

After hearing this, Alpha frowned. He knew that the Freedom Alliance had always been the focus of competition among various forces. If this mysterious force belonged to a hostile force, they must find out the situation as soon as possible and take corresponding measures.

"Is there any special information about Cross City? Are there any special problems in Best New City?" Alpha continued to ask.

"According to the information sent by Miss Liv, the city of Cross will hold a large-scale event, and they will jointly invest to purchase a batch of Eastern materials. These goods have arrived by sea and are being shipped to Cross." Fayana reported the important news.

Then, Fayana continued, "The industrial area of ​​the new city of Beth has begun to take shape. The first lathe has been completed, and the copper mine has begun small-scale smelting production. However, recently a large number of migrant workers have appeared in the new city. They enter the factory and work for less than ten days, and they will leave without even asking for salary."

Alpha frowned, it was obvious that someone was targeting his factory. He asked, "How do you deal with these migrant workers?"

Fayana replied: "Now the industrial zone, technology zone, military zone and living zone have been established in the new city of Beth. To work in the factory, you must sign a fixed contract of more than half a year. In the second factory, assembly line operation is implemented, and important positions must be held for a full year before they can be employed."

"Is there any news about magic rifles on the black market?" Alpha asked, his tone revealing a hint of urgency. Fayana quickly flipped through the news and replied, "We haven't found any long rifles like ours yet, but there are a few medium- and short-sized magic guns on the market."

Alpha didn't know that this was mainly due to the other party's problems in processing technology. They were unable to master the processing technology of long-length seamless steel pipes, which resulted in most of the magic guns produced being substandard.

Even in Alpha's own area, the pass rate of magic spear barrels is not high. For these defective products, Alpha chooses to export them to cooperating nobles. This approach can not only solve the problem of handling defective products, but also maintain the cooperative relationship with the nobles, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone. However, this also highlights the difficulties in the manufacturing process of magic guns. In order to improve product quality, Alpha needs to find better processing technology or improve the existing production process.

In this world full of mystery and magic, the manufacturing technology of magic guns is very important to Alpha. Alpha knows that only with high-quality magic spears can he gain an advantage in battle and protect himself and his companions.

In order to achieve this goal, Alpha decided to invest more energy and resources to explore and research new technologies to improve the qualification rate and performance of magic guns. Alpha knew that this would be a challenging road, but Alpha also firmly believed that only through continuous efforts and exploration can the difficulties in the manufacturing process of magic guns be truly solved, making himself and his companions more powerful in battle.

In this process, Alpha will face various difficulties and challenges, but he will persist and continuously improve the manufacturing technology of magic firearms to create greater advantages for himself and his companions.

In the quiet place of cultivation, Alpha was like a sculpture, immersed in a deep state, feeling the huge energy surging in his body like a torrent. This was a precious gift left to him by Athena, containing the magical power to break through the existing realm. However, he knew that the majesty of this energy required time to stabilize and digest it carefully.

"I need some time to calm down, maybe ten days or half a month!" Alpha's voice was calm and firm, as if he was declaring his determination to the world.

Farah was not satisfied with such a quiet life. She longed to return to the bustling city, where she could show her talent. But she knew clearly that Alpha's growth and progress were crucial to their future. So she resolutely chose to stay and accompany him to spend this crucial time together.

During this ten-day or so month of closed-door training, Alpha seemed to be isolated from the world. He poured all his energy into the energy in his body, trying to perfectly integrate it with his body and soul. The process was painful and long, and every movement was like being tempered in a raging fire, but Alpha's will was as strong as steel and indestructible.

Whenever fatigue hits him like a tide, Alpha always recalls his expectations for everyone and the encouragement of his companions. These warm forces become the source of motivation for him to persevere. He knows that only by thoroughly digesting and absorbing this energy can he move to a higher level and realize their common dream.

Finally, after a long effort, Alpha successfully stabilized and digested this powerful energy. He felt that his strength soared like a rocket, as if he had been reborn and glowed with a brand new light.

"Lord Alpha, Miss Liv sent an envoy asking for our support." Suddenly, Fayana brought a message.

"What happened over there?" Alpha's face remained calm. He knew that in an emergency, staying calm was the key to solving the problem.

"The batch of Eastern goods mentioned earlier has arrived on land. This batch of goods has gathered the main funds of major families. If an accident occurs, many families will be implicated." Farana solemnly conveyed the urgent information brought by the messenger to Alpha.

Alpha knew the importance of this batch of goods. He knew clearly that if there was any mistake in this batch of goods, it would have a huge impact on many families. He knew that he had to rush back to the headquarters as soon as possible to deal with this possible crisis. So, he and Fayana set off on the journey home without hesitation, with full of expectations and confidence for the challenges to come.

During the long journey back, Alpha kept thinking about the response strategy. He knew that this crisis not only concerned the vital interests of the major families, but also directly affected his own reputation and status. He must go all out to ensure that the goods can be delivered to the destination safely.

After several days of arduous journey, Alpha and Fayana finally returned to the bustling city. Without taking a rest, they rushed to the intelligence department to meet with Liv's messenger, his old acquaintance Henry, to understand the specific situation and discuss countermeasures.

In the meeting room of the mansion, Alpha met Henry and other important members of the department. They sat around a large table and discussed in detail the specific plan on how to ensure the safety of the cargo.

"We must strengthen the escort team and be fully prepared to deal with various emergencies." Alpha stood in front of everyone and said in a firm tone.

"Master Alpha, I think we should not take the initiative to participate in the protection of the goods." Suddenly, Mark spoke up, and his opinion surprised Alpha. Alpha was originally focused on Liv's situation and did not go into the details, so he asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"

After hearing this, Alpha fell into deep thought. He realized that Mark's suggestion was indeed reasonable, but at the same time, he also had doubts about the safety of the goods. After some thought, he decided to take a more low-key and covert way to protect the goods.

"Wait a minute, I don't think we should be directly involved in the protection of the goods. After all, the total value of the goods we own does not exceed 10%. Even if someone attempts to harm the goods, we should not bear the main responsibility. Our main task is to track the goods." Alpha said suddenly, even overturning Mark's suggestion.

He continued, "This batch of goods is a joint trade led by the Arison family and the Orff family. I don't completely trust these two families, and I'm worried that there may be some conspiracy hidden in it." Alpha knew the background of this trade very well. It was an important trade activity jointly participated by Liv, the Thames and Montgomery families, and the major forces of the Free Alliance. Even the powerful Arison family did not dare to easily anger everyone.

Henry came hurriedly, his tone revealing a hint of anxiety: "Lord Alpha, there is no problem with the cargo itself. I have carefully checked the cargo when it was unloaded. However, what we are really worried about is what will happen to the cargo after it enters the Free Alliance. Once there is a problem with the cargo, the Free Alliance will face the risk of bankruptcy, and the various families will also be implicated. The consequences will be disastrous."
