I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 329: Three People Captured, Alpha's Belief

"Don't surrender yet, or they will surely die." Just as Alpha's battle with the vampires in the sky reached a white-hot stage, the vampires nearby had actually captured Gilliana and Strong. After all, the vampires had an absolute advantage in numbers and space, and it was only a matter of time before they were defeated, which seemed to be within Alpha's expectations.

"Master Alpha, don't worry about us, you go first." Gilliana didn't seem to realize that this space was the enemy's base camp and there was no way to escape. However, in the face of danger, she and Strong's first thought was Alpha's safety.

"Let them go, I'll go with you." Alpha actually gave up resistance at this time. But this was also his original plan: since they couldn't find the enemy's whereabouts, they would let the enemy find them.

Of course, this method is quick and simple, but also extremely dangerous. Once you get deep inside the enemy, you are completely under the enemy's control. If the enemy doesn't care about their lives and kills them on the spot, then there will be no follow-up, but Alpha obviously made the right bet, and the enemy did not kill them at the first time.

"Catch them and send them to the parliament." The vampires confiscated Alpha's weapons and immediately tied up the three of them. Fortunately, they did not check Alpha's body, otherwise all the things that could save his life would be searched.

At this critical moment, Alpha secretly rejoiced that his plan had been successfully implemented. He knew that as long as he could enter the enemy's base camp, he would have a chance to find a breakthrough and save himself and his companions. However, he also knew that this road was full of unknowns and dangers, and he had to be careful at every step without any mistakes.

At the same time, Gilliana and Strong were also tied up tightly, but their eyes were still full of determination and trust. They believed that Alpha would be able to lead them out of the predicament and regain their freedom.

The three were escorted away from the battlefield by the vampire soldiers and headed towards the enemy's base camp. Along the way, they kept observing the surrounding environment, looking for possible escape opportunities. However, the enemy's defenses were so strict that they could hardly find any loopholes.

Despite this, Alpha did not give up hope. He used his wisdom and experience to constantly analyze the enemy's action patterns and weaknesses. He knew that only by finding the enemy's weak points could he have a chance to counterattack and escape successfully.

"I didn't expect the Church would only send three of you. I'm so disappointed." Dark Knight Captain Lucifaria looked at the three bronze knights in front of him, his eyes full of mockery and disappointment. His voice was low and powerful, as if every word carried a chill.

"It seems that you are all abandoned by the Church. Do you know where your fate is heading?" The dark knight leader Luciferia warned loudly, his words full of provocation and disdain. His eyes were like sharp blades, trying to pierce the hearts of the three young knights.

In fact, Luciferia was originally a member of the Vatican's Discipline Knights, and one of the most loyal knights to the Vatican. However, fate played tricks on him, and he was eventually abandoned by the Vatican and became a Dark Knight.

Therefore, when Luciferia saw Alpha and the others, he could not help but recall his past experiences, and felt both sympathy and pity. But he hoped that the three young men could join his camp and become dark knights like him, to prove that he had done nothing wrong, and that everything was due to the injustice of the Church.

"We are the Knights of Light. We are loyal to the light and the Church. We will not betray the light. You dark creatures will eventually be destroyed." Alpha shouted loudly, his voice firm and powerful.

Although he knew that his beliefs might not be completely correct, and that the power of darkness would never disappear, and that darkness would always accompany light, at this moment, Alpha chose to believe in this doctrine, because he believed that only in this way could he temporarily save his life and avoid immediate execution.

Facing Alpha's resistance, Lucifaria obviously did not play by the rules. He suddenly attacked and quickly grabbed the necks of Strong and Gilliana. As he moved, their faces instantly turned red and their breathing became extremely difficult. Seeing this scene, Alpha was extremely anxious. He knew that if he did not take action, these two companions would probably die here.

"Let them go, come at me if you dare!" Alpha shouted again, trying to exchange his life for the safety of his friends.

"You can kill our bodies, but you cannot conquer our souls. Even if we die, our souls will enter heaven and into the arms of the God of Light." Alpha said firmly. Although he knew deep down that this was just a lie woven by the Church to control people's hearts, this belief made him fearless when facing death.

Luciferia sneered, and her sharp eyes looked through Alpha's eyes and into his soul. "Well, let me see if you are really so pious, or just pretending?" His voice was icy cold, as if it could penetrate all disguises. The panic that flashed across Alpha's eyes made Luciferia more convinced that the other party was just using words to cover up his inner fear and anxiety.

Faced with such doubts, Alpha felt unprecedented pressure. He knew that once Luciferia saw through his belief that he did not truly believe in the God of Light, a fate more terrible than death would await him. So Alpha took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm: "I am a child of God, and I am willing to use my soul to believe in the God of Light..."

Before he finished speaking, a dazzling light suddenly burst out from Alpha's body. It was the light of the soul of a true knight - a brave and fearless soul that would defend justice and faith to the death. It was also the soul of the original body that was taken away by Alpha. This soul had no personal consciousness, only devotion to God.

At this moment, Alpha is no longer the ordinary person who is hesitant and afraid of losing his life; instead, he has become a warrior who is determined to protect light and hope. Even if the road ahead is full of unknowns and dangers, he will meet the challenge with the purest faith until the last moment.

"Lock them up." Luciferia's voice was cold and firm, as if he was announcing the fate of the three people. His eyes revealed a subtle complex emotion, but more of it was ruthlessness and determination. Seeing the three people's eyes that were ready to die, he knew that if he wanted to make them surrender, just a few words or simple torture would not be enough.

"Yes, sir." The two werewolves responded respectfully. Their strong bodies almost dragged the three people who were already weak and almost exhausted back to the dark and damp prison.

Each step seemed so heavy, not only because of the physical exhaustion, but also because of the fear and anxiety of the unknown fate that was about to come. As the iron door slowly closed, making a heart-pounding sound, the entire space was swallowed by darkness again, leaving only the faint sound of breathing to prove that there was still life here.

"Lord Alpha, are you okay?" Gilliana's vitality was so strong that she could struggle to get up even with only one breath left. Although her voice was weak, it was still full of concern and worry.

"I'm fine, but I can't use my fighting spirit. What's going on?" Alpha tried to mobilize the light magic in his body to give Gilliana and Strong a little healing, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't cast any spells. This made him feel unprecedented powerlessness and confusion.

"This is the Dark Stone of the Dark Council. It can seal our light energy, and if we carry it for a long time, our light energy will be transformed into dark energy." Strong explained, with a flash of fear in his eyes. He was not afraid of death, but he was afraid of violating his beliefs and losing the light in his heart.

"Trust me, I will definitely take you out." Alpha's confidence came from nowhere, but his words were like a warm force that calmed Gilliana and Strong. They knew that as long as Alpha was there, there was still hope.

The three of them calmed down and began to observe the surrounding situation. The ropes on their bodies had been untied, but their hands were locked by the so-called dark handcuffs, and they could not escape at all. These handcuffs were not only extremely strong, but also exuded a cold breath, as if they could swallow up all light.

The surroundings were all dark cages, and the three walls were made of hard, damp black stone, giving people a feeling of depression and despair. Alpha tried to use handcuffs to hit the rock, hoping to find a flaw, but it was obviously useless. The cell door was made of steel as thick as an arm. Although it was severely corroded, it was still very strong. It was almost impossible to open this cell door.

However, Alpha did not give up. He knew that only by keeping calm and having a firm belief could he find a glimmer of hope. He carefully observed every detail around him, looking for a possible breakthrough. At the same time, he constantly encouraged Gilliana and Strong to keep their confidence and courage.

Time passed by, and the three of them waited in the dark for their chance. They believed that as long as they were united, there would be no difficulties that could not be overcome.

"Don't make any noise for me, or I'll kill you." Just as the three of them were looking around anxiously, a roar full of ridicule and anger suddenly interrupted their discussion.

"Who is it?" Gilliana looked vigilantly in the direction of the dark corner, which was covered by a pile of hay, and it seemed that someone was hiding in it. Gilliana tightly grasped the weapon in her hand (picked up from the ground), ready to deal with any possible situation at any time.

With the sound of straw being lifted, a dishevelled, hairy man stood up from the shadows, revealing his almost feral face. "A bunch of little kids, wanting to escape from this place is simply a pipe dream." He sneered, his tone full of disdain and contempt.

Alpha frowned and carefully observed the man in front of him who seemed to have experienced countless hardships. Judging from the thick and messy hair on his body, he had obviously been trapped here for a long time. Combining the current environment and the state of this person, Alpha speculated that he was probably a member of the Church of Light and was imprisoned here by the Dark Council for some reason. So he asked tentatively: "Are you also a Knight of Light?"

After hearing this question, the man was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter: "Knight of Light? Hahaha... It's been so many years, I almost forgot this title! You new guys think you can change anything? Stop dreaming! In the end, what awaits you will be the same fate as ours - becoming scattered bones on the ground!" After that, he pointed to the scattered bones on the ground with his trembling hands, with an almost crazy smile on his face.

"And the leg bones in your hand, that's what will happen to you." The wildling pointed at the weapon in Gilliana's hand and taunted her. His eyes were full of malice and contempt, as if to say: "You outsiders will eventually become victims of this darkness like these bones."

"Ah!" Gilliana looked at the pale bone in her hand, and a chill came over her heart. She immediately threw the bone away, as if this could get rid of that unsettling feeling. The bone drew an arc in the air and finally fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

"I will lead them out, I will." Alpha looked at the bones scattered on the ground, and a firm determination surged in his heart. He knew that these bones represented the loss of countless lives, and they were now in the same danger. But he believed that as long as everyone united, they would be able to find a way out.

"I believe Lord Alpha can take us away from here." Gilliana and Strong shouted almost in unison. Their voices were full of trust and hope, like a bright light in the darkness.

"Bullshit! There is no light here, only darkness. They won't even give you food, do you think you can survive?" The savage continued to laugh, his words revealing a cold and ruthless tone.

"Then how did you survive?" Gilliana asked loudly, with a hint of anger and unwillingness in her voice. She didn't understand why this wild man could survive in such a harsh environment, while they could only wait for death.

"What do you think? As long as you die, I can survive." The savage pointed at the bones, with a cruel smile on his face. His words made everyone present feel a chill, as if they had seen their own fate - to become one of those cold bones.

"You eat human flesh." Gilliana looked at the savage in horror, her voice full of disbelief and fear. This skinny, ragged man in front of her actually claimed that he would eat human flesh, which made her feel unprecedented shock and uneasiness.

"What do you think?" The savage grinned, revealing a mouthful of jagged but extremely sharp teeth. There was no fear in his eyes, but rather a provocation. Obviously, he did not take the three people who were trying to harm him seriously.

"Don't even think about dealing with me. You're too weak." The Savage continued, his eyes sweeping over the three Alphas, as if he had seen through their minds. Through their eye contact, he clearly knew that the three were plotting how to join forces to subdue him. However, in the eyes of the Savage, such an attempt seemed so ridiculous and powerless.

As soon as he finished speaking, before the three Alphas could react, the savage knocked them down one by one at lightning speed. Although he did not have the blessing of fighting spirit, his thin body contained amazing strength and speed, so that the three Alphas could not even last a round. They fell to the ground with astonishment on their faces, obviously they did not expect to be defeated so quickly.

"Don't worry, I won't eat you." The wild man looked at the three people lying on the ground and said in a relaxed tone. Then, he turned his eyes to Gilliana, the only woman present.

"It's so hard to get someone to come in and play with me, so of course I have to enjoy myself." Although there was a hint of joking in his words, it could be seen from his eyes that he didn't have much interest or desire in Gilliana. It was more like he had just found someone to entertain him.

When Gilliana heard this, the tension in her heart eased a little, but she remained vigilant: "Who are you?" This question was not only to understand the other party's identity and background, but also to find a glimmer of hope and a way to escape the current predicament.

"How come you have the power of that boy Arthur?"
