Chapter 1204: The Origin of Holy Spirit Town


It turned out that Liu Wenxing had hacked into England's National Library database and stolen it. While Lin Tian laughed, he couldn't help but admire Liu Wenxing's hacking skills.

Perhaps secretly copying a document isn't difficult for a hacker, but for the outsider Lin Tian, it was quite astonishing. Hacking is always a mysterious profession to laymen, as if they can do anything in the network.

Lin Tian carefully read through the electronic document and finally understood the origins of Holy Spirit Town. The document used black-and-white photos, but it recounted events from a much earlier time.

Holy Spirit Town was indeed just as Lin Tian had anticipated, originating in the Medieval period and tightly connected to a legendary figure.

This legendary figure was none other than the legendary king of Ancient Britain, Arthur Pendragon, historically known as King Arthur, a near-mythical figure called the "Eternal King."

King Arthur adhered to the chivalric code: kindness, integrity, benevolence, loyalty, and courtesy, while also being adept at independent thinking and commanding in battles. His personal abilities and leadership were both dazzling.

For such a legendary person, legendary events naturally surrounded him, including his swords and his subordinates, all of which have been subjects of great interest for future generations.

King Arthur possessed two swords consecutively. The first was the Sword in the Stone, originally embedded in a stone block in a church cemetery. Inscribed on the sword were the words: "Whosoever pulls out this Sword in the Stone shall be the King of England."

No noble knight could pull out the sword. Arthur, who was fostered in another's home, accidentally pulled out the Sword in the Stone during a tournament to select a king, shocking everyone.

However, other knights were unwilling to accept it, not believing Arthur could pull it out. They repeated the test several times, but no one but Arthur could pull it out.

The Great Mage Merlin revealed Arthur's identity as the offspring of the former king fostered elsewhere, leading everyone to embrace Arthur as the new king.

The Sword in the Stone later broke during a battle that violated the chivalric code. The Great Mage Merlin guided him to the Holy Lake, where Arthur received a sword from the statue of the Fairy of the Lake. This sword, forged by elves, could cut through iron like mud and was named "Excalibur," also known as the "Sword of the King."

With his unparalleled skills and the Sword of the King, King Arthur battled across the land, invincible in his conquests. His legend includes not only his sword but also the stories of his Round Table Knights.

King Arthur and the Round Table Knights symbolized justice and hope, guiding the Britons to the light in the savage and dark times of the Medieval period, uniting the British Isles.

The first generation of Round Table Knights consisted of just twelve of the most legendary knights. It later expanded to one hundred and fifty, and ultimately over a thousand, becoming a true knight order with King Arthur as their leader.

During the expansion of the Round Table Knights, the Royal Knight Academy played a crucial role, as it was founded by King Arthur to cultivate generation after generation of excellent knights for the Knights.

With the passage of time, King Arthur died, and the Round Table Knights faded into the dust of history, but the Knight Academy remained, enduring to this day.

Holy Spirit Town developed around the Knight Academy, attracting more people and eventually forming a town.

The electronic document made the origins of the Royal Knight Academy very clear, but it hardly touched on its current state. Lin Tian boldly speculated that this legendary knight academy might still carry the spirit of guardianship, but the people within might have changed.

The special times of war created the special spirit of the Knight Academy, but as history changes, people's hearts change, and it's hard to say how it has transformed.

The records detailed the origins of the Knight Academy and Holy Spirit Town but did not mention the Royal Women's College. The fact that the Women's College was established in such a holy place indicates it's probably not simple either, but why it was unrecorded in electronic documents became a question in Lin Tian's mind.

"If I'm not mistaken, Yuwen Luofei comes either from the Knight Academy or the Women's College," Lin Tian muttered to himself.

The Knight Academy might not be all male; there might be female knights. Besides, it no longer trains knights but merely passes on the skills of predecessors. There's no reason to reject female students.

Having finished reading the material, Lin Tian deleted the entire document. For him, it didn't matter because he had already memorized it.

The next morning, it was still Secretary Xu ringing the doorbell to wake Lin Tian for breakfast. Lin Tian hadn't brought other clothes, so he wore a suit again.

But when Lin Tian entered the living room of the suite across the hall, he was stunned by the attire of the young miss.

Because Xiao Manxue's outfit was entirely different from any of the past. She usually wore dresses, but now she wore a white shirt. The white shirt wasn't too surprising; what was surprising was the tight pants she wore below, and her feet weren't in high heels but boots, with boots reaching up to her calves.

The young miss's legs were already long, and in tight pants and long boots, they appeared even longer, more graceful, more explosive.

Oh, why would I think of explosiveness? Damn, I'm being naughty again, Lin Tian shamelessly thought.

Xiao Manxue noticed Lin Tian staring at her intently, and she sensitively felt his gaze roaming over her legs.

"Hmm..." Xiao Manxue let out a soft hum, expressing her displeasure at Lin Tian's blatant behavior.

Lin Tian's face was as thick as a wall, so he wouldn't feel embarrassed. He earnestly said, "Miss, your attire is truly refreshing and eye-opening, but why this get-up today?"

"Oh, I mean, with your figure, this outfit on the street could cause traffic accidents. Even a decent person like me can't help but take a few more glances."

He said this with a very serious expression, as if he was genuinely a well-behaved person.

Xiao Manxue charmingly rolled her eyes at him and coyly said, "If you're decent, then pigs can climb trees. Anyway, I kindly suggest you not wear that suit."

"Why?" Lin Tian asked curiously.

Xiao Manxue didn't explain, just signaled Secretary Xu with her eyes. Secretary Xu nodded and returned to the room. Lin Tian found it odd; something seemed off with these two women.

Shortly after, Secretary Xu came out from the bedroom, but now she had two beautifully wrapped big bags. It wasn't visible what was inside, but she gave one to Lin Tian and one to Rossi.

"What is this? A gift early in the morning?" Lin Tian asked in surprise. Rossi didn't say anything, just looked at Lin Tian, clearly waiting for him to decide whether to accept.
