I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 330: The truth of history, what is true and what is false

"Why do you have the aura of Arthur? Who are you?" The savage actually discovered Arthur's energy aura on Alpha, which was the special potion given by Arthur. His tone was full of doubt and vigilance, and he was obviously very uneasy about this sudden situation.

"How did you get these?" The Savage pointed at the energy potions he had found on Alpha and asked loudly, his eyes revealing a strong sense of distrust. These potions may be priceless to ordinary people, but for those who understand their true value, there are deeper secrets behind them.

Facing the questioning of the savage, Alpha seemed unusually calm: "Lord Arthur is half my teacher, of course Lord Arthur taught me personally." His words were concise and clear, but every word revealed the extraordinary relationship between him and Arthur. At the same time, he was also quickly analyzing the identity of the savage in front of him and his attitude towards Arthur, trying to find more clues from it.

Hearing this, the Savage was even more shocked: "Impossible, you have the purest aura of King Arthur's family, which even Arthur doesn't have; and you also have the aura of those old men in Edward's family... Who are you?"

At this moment, the savage's eyes became complicated, with surprise, curiosity, and even a hint of fear that was difficult to conceal. Because he knew that someone who could possess the unique temperaments of these two families was definitely not an ordinary person. And the situation that Alpha showed at this moment made him feel unprecedented importance.

"What I said is all true. There is nothing I can do if you don't believe me." Alpha briefly explained the process. As for whether the other party believed it or not, that was the savage's own business.

"What other evidence do you have to prove your relationship with Arthur?" The Savage was also confused now. After all, Alpha's situation was very special, and even he had never encountered a similar situation.

"This is the study notes that Lord Arthur gave me." Alpha guessed at this moment that the other party had a close relationship with Arthur, and that there might be conflicts with the Pope.

The Savage flipped through the notebook Alpha had taken out, which was a symbol of time. When the Savage turned to the first page and saw the name, his eyes became blurry for a moment.

"Why did you come here this time?" After the savage knew that there was no problem with the handwriting, he immediately changed the subject.

"Save people." Alpha's answer was simple and clear.

"Then you are also abandoned pawns, abandoned pawns of the Holy See. They sent the three of you here to die, which really fits the style of that old man." The savage understood the situation of the Holy See. It was simply a beast that would eat people without leaving any bones.

"But they really spent a huge amount of money. Four bottles of Paladin potion. It's really a big deal." The savage could actually tell the preciousness of the potion just by looking at the appearance of the bottle, which shows how terrifying the other party's strength is.

"Who are you?" Alpha looked at the other person with an extremely puzzled expression.

"What's my name? How do I know?" The savage roared wildly, as if he had a great aversion to his own name. His voice echoed in the empty prison, carrying an indescribable anger and confusion. His eyes were full of confusion, as if he was looking for an answer, but didn't know where to start.

The savage clenched his hands into fists, his nails dug deep into his palms, blood dripped from his fingers. His chest rose and fell violently, and every breath seemed to be a struggle with the pain in his heart. His body trembled, not because of the cold, but because of the deep feeling of powerlessness.

The savage's heart was filled with resentment for the past and fear for the future. He didn't know who he was, where he came from, or where he was going. This unknown made him feel scared and angry.

The savage roared, his voice full of despair and struggle. He tried to vent his dissatisfaction and pain in this way, but found that this method could not calm the storm in his heart at all. He knew that only by finding his true self could he get rid of this pain and confusion.

"You are Jenossen Arthur." Suddenly, Alpha stared at the first page of Arthur's notebook, where this name was written. His eyes were full of confusion and curiosity, because this name was very unfamiliar to him - it was the name of Arthur's teacher, and also the descendant of the legendary King Arthur. However, Alpha could not be sure what kind of relationship there was between this wild man and Arthur.

"Jenoson? No, I'm not Jenoson!" The Savage became extremely excited when he heard the name, and his voice was full of rejection and denial. Obviously, he had an extremely strong resistance to this identity or name, and was unwilling to admit that he was the so-called "Jenoson".

At this time, Strong, who was standing by, also heard the name, and his reaction was even more exaggerated. "Jenoson Arthur, the 6th Pope of the Holy See?" Strong was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth and could hardly believe his ears.

As a person with a certain understanding of history, Strong knew that the meaning behind this name was extraordinary: if the person in front of him was really the legendary Pope, then this meant that the person standing in front of them was not just an ordinary person, but a figure with a long historical heritage who once ruled the entire world of the Church of Light.

However, when everyone was shocked by this discovery, the wild man who was thought to be the former Pope fell into confusion. "Yes, I am the Pope, I am Jenoshen... No, I am not Jenoshen." His words were fragmented, sometimes admitting his identity, and sometimes firmly denying it. From his performance, it was difficult to judge which of his words were true; perhaps even he himself had lost himself in the fog between memory and reality.

"Tell me about Jenosson's deeds, Strong." Alpha quickly put away the fighting spirit potion, fearing that it would be crushed by this crazy old man. At the same time, he was also very interested in the deeds of Teacher Arthur.

"Lord Alpha," Strong cleared his throat and began to narrate the forgotten history, "Jenoson Arthur is the 6th Pope of the Holy See of Light, and the current Pope Edward II is the 1th.

During the reign of Genoson, the Church of Light reached unprecedented glory, shining brightly across the continent. However, the good times did not last long, as the situation changed dramatically with the rise of the Ottoman Empire.

The Ottoman Empire continued to expand its territory with its powerful military force, and eventually came into direct conflict with the Holy See of Light. Faced with the enemy's powerful offensive, even a wise and brave leader like Genoson felt powerless.

After a series of fierce battles, the Holy See of Light was defeated step by step, and even the Holy City was captured. It was not until Edward I succeeded as the new Pope that the situation was gradually stabilized, but unfortunately, the whereabouts of Jenossen remains a mystery to this day.

Hearing this, the originally emotional savage seemed to be touched, and there was a hint of nostalgia in his tone: "No, it's all because of that villain Edward who deliberately delayed the march time, which led to my Holy Discipline Knights being surrounded on all sides and ultimately suffered a miserable defeat. If they hadn't missed the opportunity to fight, how could we have been defeated?" Although his words still revealed deep dissatisfaction and regret for past events, it can be seen from his words that this period of history is of great significance to him.

"The Knights of the Holy Discipline were once one of the most powerful knightly orders on the continent, directly under the jurisdiction of Pope Genoson. But after his disappearance, this once-mighty force quickly declined and was eventually completely wiped out by the Dark Council." Strong added, and he obviously had a deeper understanding of this period of history.

In fact, every pope will build his own elite force that is loyal to himself rather than the entire church; once such a force encounters a major setback or crisis, the pope's political career will often end.

Therefore, it was difficult for Genoson to maintain his leadership position after losing the support of the Holy Discipline Knights. As for where he went, there were only a few words in the official records, leaving room for future generations to imagine.

After hearing all this, the savage's emotions became complicated again: "Huh, saying that Edward can stabilize the situation is simply a joke! If there were no serious problems within the Ottoman Empire and it had to stop its external expansion, how could he have had a chance? This is not his credit at all!" Although he did not admit it, it can be heard from his words that he had a certain understanding of the background of that era full of variables.

"Are you really Pope Jenosan?" Hearing the other party's tone, Strong couldn't help but feel a little doubtful. He carefully looked at the man in front of him who seemed ordinary but exuded an extraordinary temperament, trying to find the answer from his eyes. I'm afraid that the other party is really the legendary Pope Jenosan. After all, apart from him, who else can face such a situation so calmly?

"I don't know." Jensen replied calmly, with a hint of helplessness and fatigue in his tone. This name seemed to be a heavy burden to him, and he felt extremely depressed and painful whenever he mentioned it. Obviously, this experience was not pleasant for him, and it could even be said to be a history that he did not want to be mentioned again.

"Then why are you here, Lord Jenossen?" Compared to confirming the authenticity of the other party's identity, Strong was more concerned about why this once high and respected pope appeared in such a place. You know, according to common sense, a person like Jenossen should enjoy the supreme status and the admiration of countless believers!

It turns out that all this was due to a secret operation by the Dark Council - they not only successfully captured the former Pope, but also imprisoned him in an extremely secret place, and the outside world was completely unaware of all this.

What is even more puzzling is that in the face of such provocation, the Holy See of Light did not take any military action to fight back. What kind of secret is hidden behind this abnormal behavior?

"It was all because Edward deliberately hid Arthur and lured me to their ambush site to distract me. Then he instigated my Paladin Captain to launch a sneak attack on me, which eventually led to my falling into the hands of the Dark Council..." At this point, the wild man's voice was full of anger and unwillingness, but also revealed a sense of relief. After all, hundreds of years have passed, and he has gradually learned to let go of all the grudges and hatreds of the past.

"So...how is Arthur doing now?" The savage's eyes flashed with relief after learning that the person he cared about most was still alive. Despite the countless hardships and obstacles, there was at least hope.

Seeing this, Alpha began to tell the two in detail about the various unfair treatments that had happened to Arthur during this period of time. As a bystander, he was very dissatisfied with the practices of some senior leaders within the church, believing that these people would do anything for their own personal interests, which seriously damaged the image and development prospects of the entire organization.

After listening to these stories, the Savage was silent for a while, and then burst into a deafening roar: "Damn Edward family! They are willing to sacrifice the interests of the entire church for their own selfish desires. This behavior is simply unforgivable!"

However, after venting his emotions, he quickly regained his composure, as if the intense emotional fluctuations just now had never happened.

"It seems that the Holy See of Light is really on its way to an end..." The savage sighed softly, his words filled with emotion about the fickleness of fate.

"Who are you trying to save this time?" the Savage asked curiously. After all, it was a pipe dream to save people from the Dark Council with the strength of the three of them. The Church had already given up on them, but gave them such a powerful potion. It all seemed a little unreasonable.

"It's our Knight Commander," Alpha replied, "Our Knight Commander was captured by the Dark Council. If we can't rescue him, we will also be implicated."

Alpha didn't dare to mention that Athena was Pope Edward's daughter, because he didn't know what would happen. He knew that once this secret was exposed, it would not only bring them greater danger, but also lead to the failure of the entire rescue plan.

"Then how do you get out?" The Savage had thought about leaving this place, but it was almost impossible. Surrounded by high walls and heavily guarded sentries, coupled with the complex maze-like passages, it was almost impossible to escape.

"We marked the location of the teleportation array. When there are four moons in the sky, it is time to activate the array." Alpha explained half-truthfully. He knew that only in this way could the savages believe that they had a way to escape. In fact, he was not sure whether this method was really effective, but he had to stay calm and not let the other party see any flaws.

"It seems that you have been fooled by those people in the Vatican again," the savage shook his head with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "The time and location here are inconsistent with the time and location of the teleportation array outside. Here, the teleportation array can only be opened in the center of the parliament when twelve moons appear in the sky. It's okay for you to dare to come in without knowing anything." The savage explained patiently, hoping that they could understand the complexity and danger here.
