The next day.
Inside wolf castle.
Duke Frank looked at Sulu:
"Sulu portley... Your bravery is gratifying, and your kindness and compassion are more valuable qualities... Please let me express my gratitude. I allow you to make a request to me!"
As soon as this sentence was uttered, suluton felt that many hot eyes around him were staring at him, and his jealousy was almost undisguised.
In the eyes of many Knight attendants and guards, this is a shortcut to become an aristocrat.
As long as you are not a fool, you will choose a fief!
"I have an extraordinary thirst for knowledge. If I can enjoy reading all the books in the Duke's study, it will bring me great joy..."
In fact, Sulu was unhappy with the Archduke who sent Mars to catch him in wolf Castle early in the morning, but he still put forward his own request.
This is a little helpless.
After all, in this era, more knowledge is still in the hands of aristocrats.
"What an unexpected request. I promised."
Frank was silent and agreed in a look of regret or schadenfreude.
Of course, although he promised, in fact, some really cherished books, such as books recording extraordinary careers or knight training, will not be shown to him.
But Sulu didn't have much interest in that either.
He saluted, followed his servant to the study, immediately excitedly pulled out a book "the history of witch Hunting: the rise and destruction of forest witches", and stood up to read it.
"So there are wizards in this world!"
"But their position is very delicate. They are both feared and desired... Even the court of the Dragon Kingdom has a group of court mages."
"Among the people, there are all kinds of evil legends about wizards, as well as the occasional outbreak of witch hunting..."
……
"He... Didn't understand my hint at all... This countryman! Stupid pig!"
In the hall, after many servants retired, Mrs. monfari's face was a little distorted.
Even she was surprised that this situation had turned into what she thought was a sure draw.
"My sister, you're going to be disappointed... The other party doesn't seem to care about the fief at all..."
Frank shrugged his shoulders. "What an interesting little guy."
His level is very high. One more and one less black iron knight is nothing at all.
But a group of people who followed, especially the horse knight, were very angry about it.
This is the solicitation of a duke and the olive branch extended by the top nobles of the kingdom. How dare a mere Dalit refuse?
Although the other party is a black iron knight, which is equivalent to a quasi Lord, he is not a real aristocrat after all!
MAS gill looked at this scene and, after seeing Archduke Frank leave, hurried several steps to a knight: "Knight Andrews, long time no see!"
"Sir Mars... I heard you were defeated by that little sword?"
The Andrews knight is tall and strong. MAS is already a tall man among ordinary people, but he is a head taller than MAS, with a face full of flesh and a very rude and ferocious character.
MAS drew a muscle on his face: "he is a speed Knight..."
"Excuse... If you become a bronze knight and your defense increases greatly, his sword can only tickle you..."
Andrews laughed, suddenly clenched his fist, his knuckles exploded, and a layer of bronze light appeared on his skin.
"You... You broke through?"
Asked MAS Gilman in surprise.
In this world, the nobles take the knights as their strongest force and have a unique set of grading means.
The lowest is the knight attendant, also known as the knight squire. It is an ordinary person who has mastered some power skills and has not been promoted to the professional level after hard training.
Then, the black iron knight, also known as the official knight, can win the title of jazz after hard work.
Then there are bronze knights. They are stronger, faster, and can temporarily harden part of their body, which is enough to resist the sudden stabbing of swords, even long guns, and even the shooting of crossbows and arrows!
A bronze knight, regardless of joining any noble camp, will be immediately canonized without having to establish meritorious deeds to prove himself.
As for the better, the silver and gold knights.
The fighting defense of Silver Knight can be spread all over the body. Even without heavy armor, it is also a killing machine in war.
At present, there is only one in the whole northern territory. He is holding the post of deputy head of the Northern Territory knights and is in charge of most of the mission affairs.
Because the nominal lords of the Knights are held by the Archduke of all dynasties, the other party is actually the real head of the Knights.
The last Golden Knight has become a legend.
Perhaps there are one or two of the king capitals of the Kingdom, but it is only a rumor.
"Yes, I broke through."
Andrews laughed: "I'm already the squadron captain of the Knights of the north. Next time you see me, remember to call your Lord! And... Put away your careful thinking. I'm just looking reckless, not a fool. You want to provoke me to deal with that boy? What's the good for me?"
In the twilight era of the gods, how can a person who can exercise himself to the level of a second-class professional be a fool?
MAS's face changed for a while. Originally, he wanted to shrink back, but I don't know why. At the thought of Sulu's age and the kind of casual smile in the face of everything, he couldn't control: "I won't pay too much... After all, he's not a noble, just a civilian!"
A somewhat difficult negotiation began immediately.
……
Night.
Sulu returned to the hotel and tasted the craftsmanship of the owner's daughter.
The other side looks ordinary, but as a cook, she is still very conscientious. The pork sausage with sauce is particularly delicious.
Although the wolf Castle also entertained him, Sulu's face twitched at the thought of that lunch.
By chance, he saw the Duke's kitchen.
Dark, wet and dirty... All kinds of kitchen utensils are placed disorderly, and the ground is full of excrement of chickens, ducks and other livestock, which is almost close to vegetables and grains.
The cook at the waist of the bucket was covered with dirt, played with the grill and kitchen knife vulgarily, and flirted with the servants.
In short, the picture is quite spicy.
"It is said that the world... Even the kitchen of the court is of the same level... It's really desperate."
Suluxuan found that the hotel owner became more respectful, which may be the reason why he could be invited to wolf castle.
This directly led to less greedy eyes coveting his money bag.
"Whatever... Take a break and go to Wangdu in a few days."
Sulu secretly made a plan: "no matter what, we should try to steal the Dragon tomb!"
This is the harvest of today's reading. After the death of dragon I, his successor built a quite gorgeous mausoleum for him and seemed to bury the fallen dragon around him.
