Chapter 690: Former members of the Wind Knights
Although George was taken away, the last sentence he said before leaving made Robb a little curious. He turned to Madeline beside him and asked, "Did George just say that Kante will be knighted?"
Madeline nodded, "Yes! Kante's uncle, Baron Nuolun, made a request to the captain of the Wind knights, hoping to make his nephew a real knight and participate in this expedition. After making a fortune in recent years, Baron Nuolun has spent a lot of money on his colleagues in the Wind knights, supporting his poor comrades-in-arms, buying war horses and equipment for the knights, and has put in both money and effort. The captain of the Wind knights had no choice but to agree when he asked."
Robb was speechless, "Using connections and walking through the back door?"
Madeline said, "Although it's using connections, Kante is actually pretty good. Among the students in this year's class at the academy, except for you, he is the most outstanding one."
"A physical department mage is also considered outstanding?" Robb was sweating profusely. "Just how bad are the students in this year's class?"
Madeline laughed, "When we say he's outstanding, it's not because his magic power is strong. It's because he is the most suitable warrior to walk out of school and onto the battlefield in this year's class of students."
"Okay!" Robb agreed with her statement.
The two of them walked into the palace, not directly into the main hall to see the queen, but instead went around to a small hall on the side to meet the captain of the Wind knights. Robb was about to become a staff officer for the Wind knights, so it was appropriate to meet the captain.
As they approached the door of the small hall, Madeline suddenly grabbed Robb and put a finger to her lips, "Shh!" and then pointed inside.
Robb quickly stopped talking and looked into the small hall.
It turned out that a solemn ceremony was taking place in the small hall!
A middle-aged man in a robe was standing sideways to the door. He looked to be in his forties and was somewhat familiar, but Robb couldn't remember who he was.
Kante was kneeling in front of this man, with a very pious look on his face.
Madeline also chimed in, "That's right, Elizabeth is too cautious."
Robb cried and laughed, "No, no, no, I think it's better to be a staff member. I don't know anything about the current Wind knights. If I really became the captain, wouldn't it be me blindly commanding? Being a staff member is more suitable for me."
"Well, that really puts you in a difficult position," Barry said. "Anyway, if you have any ideas, just tell me. The Wind knights were your grandfather's, and sooner or later, they'll be back in your hands."
Robb thought to himself, [This is really a loyal old subordinate! Why didn't he think about getting rid of me so that no one would steal his position as captain?]
However, Robb soon realized why he didn't have such thoughts.
That evening, Robb arrived at the temporary camp of the Wind knights. As soon as the old members of the Wind knights from all over the world heard of Robb's identity, they immediately swarmed over, and everyone looked at Robb's eyes as if they were looking at a hero, a savior.
"Mr. Smith!"
"The descendant of the Smith family."
"The soul of our Wind knights!"
"Someone can finally lead us to regain the glory of the Wind knights."
