Chapter 135: The First Follower

Yao Yan reached out to pat his back very kindly. Captain Adria's eyes narrowed, and the sword in his hand raised, trying to block Yao Yan. Who knew that Bishop Rand waved his hand and let Yao Yan pat his back for him. Lilith also gave him a towel.

As soon as the tea was sprayed, the chests of my father and Bishop Rand were in a mess. Rand smiled bitterly and shook his head, "President Yao Yan, no one has ever called me like this... I laughed at you, I laughed at you."

"It's okay, I'll get used to it in the future." Yao Yan said without any attention. Rand could only smile bitterly, and Lilith went to help him change a cup of tea. Bishop Rand pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, I know that you must have doubts when you come this time."

He paused, and saw Yao Yan and his father both looked at the ears of listening, nodded slightly, and said, "You may not know much about the Holy Teachings. I have heard a lot of rumors about the Holy Teachings from the outside world. Most of them say that the Holy Teachings are evil and narrow-minded, so I don't need to explain this. As for the offenses before, it is because I stand in a different position. This time I came here specifically to solve this misunderstanding."

As he said that, he stood up and bowed to both of them again.

His attitude was very upright, which made Yao Yan unimaginable. He was actually a high-ranking archbishop, but this also alerted Yao Yan. He believed that being able to destroy the airship was not enough to make the other party pay so much attention. If others destroyed the airship of the Dragon Bible Sect, it would probably become enemies. If it were himself, even if there were other possibilities, it should not be the result.

"President Yao Yan, please don't have any extra thoughts." Bishop Rand smiled, "I also know what you are worried about. When you ruined our airship, this matter will certainly make some people in us very unhappy, but that does not represent my attitude."

Bishop Rand's attitude surprised Yao Yan. Perhaps, people like him have been at a high position for a long time, but they have lost interest in some oblique things, at least when they are not talking in that way.

Moreover, he was not kind to everyone. Soon, Yao Yan discovered that maybe he really wanted something.

"This matter was decided by our mistakes and ended with our airship being destroyed. We will try our best to make up for the harm caused to you. At the same time, we have also punished those who caused these mistakes. His Majesty, His Majesty, has been recalled by His Majesty and is about to face the punishment of confinement. Elder Jindu and others have been mobilized back." His finger pointed at the leader Adria who was standing beside him: "He chose the wrong way at the beginning and caused an unshirkable responsibility in this matter, so..." He paused, and his voice was a little emotional, "He has been removed from the Holy Church. Although he is still the title of deputy commander of the Dragon Expeditionary Force, he will step down soon. Adria is my registered disciple. After leaving the Holy Church, he has nowhere to go. Now I will give him to President Yao Yan and be your follower."

"Give it to me?" Yao Yan was startled. He looked up at Adria. His face turned ashen, his eyes were red. He lowered his head and stared at a corner of the table. Without saying a word, Yao Yan could see the anger and horror in his heart.

In fact, the person who has the greatest responsibility in this matter is certainly not Adria, but he is the person who has direct contact with Yao Yan. At the same time, he is controlled by Yao Yan and becomes Yao Yan's accomplice in destroying the airship. Naturally, Yao Yan did not expect that Bishop Rand would actually "give him" him. Can he give him alone?

Then, Yao Yan smiled bitterly. He found that he had made an inertial mistake. In the original world, it seemed incredible that he would claim that everyone was equal. Giving one person to another person seemed incredible, but this kind of thing really exists objectively. Sometimes, the superiors can indeed not treat people as human beings.

And in this world, this kind of thing is even more common.

When it comes to followers, they are people who swear allegiance to someone. Following and being followed is not a rare phenomenon. But in this world, followers are a proper noun. They often make oaths in the name of God and can never go against the will of their masters. In Yao Yan's opinion, this is no different from slaves.

For example, Dere is a follower of Shute. He would rather betray the Demon Dragon Guild and face the desperate situation of being chased by others all day long, he would rather follow Shute. In Yao Yan's opinion, this is a foolish loyalty. Of course, Shute never treated Dere as a slave, or even regarded him as a servant or follower, but was more like a friend.

However, he could not associate the term follower with Adria.

Joke, Adria is the commander of the Dragon Expeditionary Force, a powerful dragon knight up to level 13. If the magic net increase is added, it can be said that his strength has reached level 16. Among the people Yao Yan has seen, except for the dragon druid and the Cardinal in front of him, the highest level. In front of him, Ek Kuro, who was the enemy of Yao Yan, was just a baby without any power to fight back. As a knight, Ost, who is also known as the strongest knight of the demon dragon, may not be able to walk three moves under his hands. If such a person really faces the battle, he can plow the entire Thunder Slaying Guild from beginning to end without breathing.

Although Adria lowered her head, she could still feel Yao Yan's scrutiny gaze. The veins of his hand holding the hilt of the sword swelled up and made a giggle. Obviously, his heart was filled with anger and disappointment at this time.

What does it feel like to be abandoned by the forces he is loyal to and abandoned by the gods he believes in? He is in charge of the Dragon Expeditionary Force and has made great contributions to the Holy Church, but now he is given out as a gift.

Despite this, he had no idea of ​​resisting. He was trained as a dragon knight since he was a child. As the most powerful established unit of the entire Dragon Belief Cult, every Dragon Knight is willing to abandon everything for the Holy Cult. As long as the Holy Cult needs it, they can sacrifice everything for the Holy Cult, even if they are given as gifts and become followers of others.

In fact, within the Holy Church, some people planned to execute him because many people had long been envious of the position of commander of the Dragon Expedition Legion. At that time, his teacher, the archbishop of the Cardinal, proposed the idea of ​​treating him as a bargaining chip in exchange for some benefits, so that he could save his life. From this point of view, he was very grateful to Rand because Rand saved his life. However, he became a follower of the person in front of him... He still remembers the pain and hatred in his heart when Yao Yan destroyed the airship, and he had to take up his weapons and be enemies with his companions.

"The Dragon Knight is the most loyal warrior. As long as they swear allegiance, they will never betray them. Even if they are enemies of the Holy Sect, they will not hesitate." Rand reached out and patted Adria's arm gently, comforting this disciple whom he once valued very much. "I believe that President Yao Yan, you are a person worth following and can bring glory to your followers."

After receiving the teacher's hint, Adria gritted her teeth and suddenly fell down.

The middle-aged Dragon Power Knight, who is 1.95 meters tall and wearing heavy dragon armor, lowered his noble head deeply in front of this young man who is more than twenty years younger than him and is not as thick as an arm of his body, and made a solemn oath to him: "I take the great Eight-Winged Dragon God... I swear to my own soul and be loyal to Yao Yan. Your will will be the direction I point to. I will always follow you, become your most loyal knight, and protect your glory with my life!"

Looking at the tall dragon power knight who was kneeling in front of him, who was still no shorter than him, Yao Yan couldn't react for a moment. This world was too dramatic. The enemy who had once been beaten to death in an instant became his most loyal subordinate.

"I remember that President Yao Yan, you have a very strange way to control others, but I think that kind of power should not be used frequently. I have a contract scroll here that can make a contract between you and Adria, so you don't have to worry about Adria being unfaithful to you." Rand placed a scroll on the table.

Yao Yan didn't say anything, he slowly walked to the front of the Dragon Li Knight and whispered: "Raise your head."

Then, Yao Yan saw the dark face and fierce eyes of the Dragon Li Knight.

He looked at the Dragon Power Knight, completely ignoring the terrifying aura that was enough to flatten Yao Yan. In fact, the moment when the Dragon Power Knight, who was holding his breath, knelt down, the air in the entire guild almost solidified.

"Are you not convinced?" Yao Yan looked at the Long Li Knight condescendingly, "The swearing of allegiance is just a joke from you, in exchange for a chance to survive?"

"The oath made by the Dragon Li Knight will never be violated. You will always be my master." The Dragon Li Knight's voice rumbled, which made Yao Yan's eardrum numb, but the unyielding stubbornness in the eyes of the Dragon Li Knight was still as hot as a flame.

"I'll give you a chance to fight me. If you win, I'll give you freedom. If you lose... I'll die." Yao Yan's mouth bent a sarcastic arc, "Do you think I'll take a fancy to you? Or do you think I'll just use conspiracies?"

In fact, Adria thought so in her heart. The moment Yao Yan made this request, he almost jumped out and drew his sword to fight Yao Yan. But the next moment, all his fighting spirit was suppressed by an extremely powerful aura, which came from his teacher, Bishop Rand.

"I dare not, master." Adria lowered her head deeply.

"I will give you this opportunity. As long as you want, you can challenge me and win your freedom, but at the same time you must be prepared for death." Yao Yan's smile had an inexplicable coldness. That coldness was not like a human being, but like some kind of existence that was high above and overlooked the world.
