Chapter 256： Return to the Territory (Ask for monthly tickets, recommended tickets)

Chapter 256 Return to the Territory (Ask for monthly tickets, recommendation tickets)

Nothing to say all night.

The next day, the first ray of light in the morning shone through the window into Reid's room.

Rett finished his meditation, came to the mirror in good spirits, tidied his hair, went through the process and vows of today's ceremony in his mind, had a simple breakfast, and left the Lionheart Hostel.

Palace Square.

At this time, solemn ritual music is being played, a song called Glory, which is rarely played in the palace. Because this piece of music will only be played during a knighthood or a knighthood ceremony.

Rett entered through the gate, and there was a row of solemn knights standing on both sides. They notified in advance and let them go after a simple search. Despite this, Leiter also temporarily placed the space ring in the Lion Heart Hotel in advance. Fortunately, he conducted a real simulation in advance, confirming that the Lionheart Hotel's privacy measures are in place, and his things have not been stolen.

The first step into the palace, Leiter stepped on the delicate and bright red carpet.

At this moment, in front of the square, there are a group of royal knights, ceremonial groups and other luxuriously dressed people waiting. Amidst the rhythmic ceremony and music, Lei Te appeared in front of him with bright eyes. Leiter raised his chest and retracted his abdomen, and walked forward to communicate with a dignified appearance, and got a warm response from a middle-aged man with brown curly hair:

"Earl Leiter, first of all, I wish you the title of Marquis soon, and hope that today's ascension ceremony goes well.

Leave the rest to us, we are responsible for setting off the momentum around, and you can walk along this red carpet all the way to the palace. "

Leite nodded: "Thank you!"

"You're welcome. To be honest, I haven't participated in the promotion ceremony for many years, and I will retire in a few years. My greatest wish is to participate in such a solemn ceremony again before I retire. I miss it very much. So... Thank you very much .”

"Really? I'm honored. But in fact, we should all be grateful to King Jinlun!" Rhett shrugged and laughed.

"That makes sense, thank you King Jin Lun."

Rett waited for more than half an hour in front of the square gate. During this period, he had a calm demeanor and waited in front of the Knights.

Accompanied by the replay of the glorious music, as well as the gestures of the Knights and Ceremonies, Leiter took the first step of the ceremony.

Stepping on an even pace, soon, they stepped into the palace.

The most people gathered in the palace, all the nobles and members of the royal family gathered here, almost all the dignitary figures of the entire kingdom were present, and the dignitary here refers to the nobles above the earl, they are guarding all parties, they are the kings of the kingdom. Only important forces are eligible to enter.

They sat on both sides of the red carpet, watching Lei Te with his left elbow bent and his right hand hanging down, walking towards the end of the red carpet, the solemn and solemn King Jinlun—Milan.

On such a serious occasion, there was no whispering or whispering. Hogus and his brothers and sisters stood at the front of the crowd, watching Rhett passing through them, with different eyes.

Milan held a long sword in his hand, watched Leiter's arrival, raised the corner of his mouth, held a classic book in one hand, and began to read a long story.

When the reading of more than an hour is over.

Rett knew it was his turn, so he began to read the oath: "In the face of a strong enemy, fearless; brave and loyal, worthy of Jin Lun; honest and straightforward, would rather die than surrender; protect the weak, it is no wonder..."

The affidavit is only a few minutes long.

Accompanied by the resounding voice, the thunderous applause below reverberated throughout the palace.

The smile on King Milan's face was even bigger, and he slapped Leiter's shoulder with the long sword in his hand, and slapped him lightly, implying acceptance of the announcement and showing his authority.

Then, someone next to him handed Milan branches and soil.

Milan put away the long sword, took it with both hands, and then handed it to Leiter: "Your achievements have fully proved yourself, and Jin Lun is with you. I canonize you as the Marquis of Leiter Green, and guard the southwest border from then on..."

Leite bowed his chest, solemnly speechless, and then took over the branches and soil with both hands. This link symbolized that he had obtained a new fiefdom and higher rights.

Afterwards, another half an hour passed, and a row of mixed-and-match knights behind the king sang praises.

The hymn is called Bolai's Song, which is melodious and light, which relieves a bit of the serious atmosphere.

This is the entire process of conferring titles in the Kingdom of Jinlun.

When the ceremony ended, it was already close to noon.

The king was the first to leave and went upstairs before the other nobles dared to talk.

"Congratulations, Leiter." Hogus walked up to him with a smile on his face, and patted Leiter on the shoulder.

"Where, I also want to thank Prince Hogus for his great help." Leiter smiled modestly.

"Marquis Leiter, I heard that you performed well in the canyon defense line before?"

At this time, a tall man came with a calm expression.

Rett had done some research in advance. He was the eldest prince of the royal family, possessed the strength of a sky knight, and held an important position in the cold current defense line.

He maintained a standard smile, and responded: "Prince Wilkin, it's not that I'm outstanding, but the sergeants in the canyon defense line are very eye-catching."

"But there is always someone who is better. I hope to have the opportunity to see your outstanding performance in the cold current defense line in the future." The eldest prince squeezed out a smile.

"In the face of a strong enemy, there is no fear." Leiter responded with the oath just now.

Wilkin's expression didn't change at all, he just chatted briefly and left the palace.

"Don't worry about it, Wilkin is like this. Maybe the battle in the cold current defense line is too tense, and he doesn't have so much energy to communicate with others." Hogus looked at the back of the eldest prince and then at Leiter, shrugging.

"Well, it doesn't matter, but is the situation of the cold current defense line really tense?" Leiter asked pretendingly casually. He was actually curious about the number of extinct Argonians.

"That's right, the situation in the cold current defense line is not optimistic. You should have heard of Master Assad. He has always insisted on refining the dragon-slaying poison, which caused the Yalong people to counterattack extremely crazy and the war continued to escalate. So far, basically In addition to the sacred powerhouses who rarely leave the field, the Sky Knights often participate in fierce confrontations..." Hogus frowned unconsciously when he said this.

"It seems that the situation of the cold current line of defense is really serious, I hope the leader of the blood **** will not cause damage from it..." Leiter thought in situ. Soon, other nobles came over and took the opportunity to talk to Lei Te, and Lei Te responded skillfully, coping with the situation in front of him.

Next, the Leiter Palace socialized for more than two hours, and had friendly exchanges with dozens of nobles from all over the Jinlun Kingdom, which can be regarded as preliminary acquaintances.

It wasn't until the afternoon that Leiter found a chance to leave the palace after he felt that he had basically chatted with the nobles in the field.

Then he left the royal city non-stop and set foot on the territory to return.

While on the East Blue Coast, Huo Ge successfully broke through to the first-level monster, and his speed increased greatly. Therefore, it took less than a month to reach the destination.

Leite sat behind Huo Ge, with the undulating branches of the Dark Eagle.

Seeing the familiar scene and thinking that his family was waiting for him in Green Manor, Leiter smiled comfortably, but he was not in a hurry to return.

Instead, he rushed to the Lonely Peak, the nest of the Shadow Eagle, because the conversation with Prince Wilkin and Prince Hogus in the Luna Palace reminded him of the cooperation between the distance and Assad, and almost two years have passed , he needs to understand the scale of the current Shadow Eagle.

The autumn wind is bleak, and many trees in the branch of the dark eagle are dyed golden, adding a bit of beauty to the mountains and forests.

At the foot of the Lonely Peak Mountain, Wardelger leaned against a boulder and surrounded a simple oven with stones. With hard branches on both sides, he wore a few thick monster legs and grilled in the smoldering flames.

The shiny animal legs make crackling noises from time to time, exuding a tempting fragrance. Wardell rubbed his fingers and evenly sprinkled the fragrant seasoning powder with a satisfied face.

Suddenly, he looked up, and saw a small black spot approaching rapidly in the distance, gradually turning into a beautiful fiery red figure.

"Hey, Leiter! Long time no see, you've been away for a long time, I feel like we haven't seen each other for more than half a year!" Wardell stood up, with one hand on his hip, one The hand waved to the sky. His beard was exceptionally thick and looked like it hadn't been groomed for a long time.

Hoo~~

The fire grid brought a gust of wind, and the flame of the barbecue was almost extinguished.

"Haha, Wardellger, it's been a long time!" Leiter turned over and landed, looked up at the isolated peak, and could vaguely see more than 20 dark-patterned eagles circling and flying around, half of them were juveniles.

"This time you went out, there was quite a commotion. I'm afraid the whole kingdom knows about the promotion to Marquis!" Wardell said, "Can you tell me? What did you do to make such a great contribution?"

Leite spread his hands, remained silent, and responded with movements.

Wardell shrugged when he saw this: "Well, it seems to be a very important matter, and it doesn't matter if you don't talk about it."

Then he looked up at the lonely peak, couldn't help showing a touch of joy, and changed the subject and said: "Leite, guess how many we have Shadow Eagles?"

"Thirty-seven?"

"That's right, there are nine other eggs of the Dark Eagle." Wardell said, "Although this number may seem insignificant, they are bred from only a dozen or so. It's only going to get faster."

"Are there enough aphrodisiacs?" Lei nodded and asked a key question. Since the cooperation with Master Issard, Wardrger has been mainly responsible for the supervision of the shadow falcons, and the aphrodisiac potions have basically been handed over to the other party. The potion is indispensable for promoting the growth of the shadow falcons so quickly.

"Well, less than half of the potion has been consumed. But with the expansion of the Shadow Eagle's scale, the consumption rate of the potion will definitely increase accordingly. I guess it will be good for two years. Maybe only a little more than a year." Drake said thoughtfully.

"I understand." Lei Te nodded, and said after consideration: "All of this should be in Master Assad's plan. He must have estimated the consumption of potions and the growth rate of the eagle group. Maybe when the potions run out At the right time, the other party will come again."

"It makes sense. By that time, the size of the eagle flock should break through a hundred." Wardell stroked his beard and said.

"Well, in a few years, it will be back to its former glory. So I will trouble you to continue to worry about it." Leiter looked at the dark-striped eagles in the sky again, and said in a low voice.

Counting on force to destroy the Argonians will be difficult to achieve in the short term, and there is no certainty of victory in the long run. But as long as the strategy of exterminating the poison is implemented, then unless the Argonians run to the rear of the orcs, they will not be able to hide. Otherwise, genocide is a matter of time.

I have to say that there are too many ways of war. Even if military force cannot destroy you, it does not mean that there is no way to take you. Targeting your race, severing your offspring, destroying the hope of the continuation of the race, ultimately leads to the same goal by different routes.

Leite sighed, thinking of some things in Blue Star's homeland, shook his head and left with a sigh.

On the wide gray stone avenue.

Sveta stood at the gate of the Green Manor. He heard that the master attended the promotion ceremony more than half a month ago, which attracted much attention. Then after that, the possibility of returning is much greater.

Therefore, for more than half a month, when he was almost free, he walked at the gate of Green Manor, hoping to welcome the return of the master as soon as possible.

Sveta waited for a long time today, and felt a little bored while pacing, and the thoughts in his mind were unconsciously flying.

"Unexpectedly, I am now the Marquis steward. When I was young, my father said that if he had the hope of becoming a Viscount steward in this life, he would be content. If he knew that the head of the Green family was already a Marquis, he would be surprised. It's terrible." Thinking of this, Sveta smiled, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes.

"Chirp!"

The eagle chirping in the sky was like a rushing bell.

Sveta raised his head almost reflexively, all the thoughts in his mind were fleeting, and surprise appeared on his face instantly.

Huo Ge's current body, his wings are more imposing. When Sveta stretched his arms, he was caught off guard for a moment, and his hat was blown into the sky by a huge air current.

"Oh, my hat!" Surprised, Sveta reached out to reach the gray fur hat more than one meter away from his head.

Suddenly, a cyan smoke composed of wind elements, with a slight push, the hat fell straight down.

"Thank you, master!" Sveta thanked him as he knew it was the master who made the move, and put the hat on his head again.

"Sveta, this hat is very dignified and handsome, and it looks brand new. Did Scarlett sew it for you?" Rhett laughed.

"My lord, it wasn't Scarlett, it was Maru who did it for me."

"Maru? She still has this skill? I thought sewing scarves was her limit." Leiter said in surprise.

"Yes, I was also surprised at first, but it turns out that Maru's craftsmanship is not even inferior to Scarlett's."

Rett walked into the manor and said, "How are you and Maru going?"

Sveta followed closely behind Leiter, and replied hesitantly: "It can be considered...some good progress."

"Really? I hope you will get married soon, and I will be your witness."

"Thank you, sir, but that's too long ago."

"Don't say that, who can tell the truth about love?" Leiter smiled lightly, he did not forget the simulation on the East Blue Coast, Sveta and Maru will be successful in a year, and the time is short not long ago.

While the two were chatting, Leiter walked to the middle of the stone path, not far from Dark Rock Fortress.

But at this moment, he glanced to the left, under a big phoenix tree that was as big as an umbrella, and McCoff just left the Vice Castle and passed the shade of the tree.

"Rett? You are finally willing to come back, how does it feel to be a Marquis?" Mycroft said with a smile.

Rett paused, and looked at Mycroft jokingly: "I don't feel any change, and there are no more or less important things around me. But you seem to be in a good mood. Did you meet any happy event?"

He spoke in the tone of an old friend, with a little casualness, pretending not to know that Mycroft was married, but at this moment Sveta leaned into Leiter's ear and whispered: "Master, when you leave, Mr Mycroft and Miss Vicky married."

"What?" Leiter seemed surprised, glanced at Sveta, then at Mycroft: "Are you married?"

"Otherwise? Your housekeeper will not deceive you."

Leite was stunned, and then he spread his hands helplessly: "Well, now it seems that it's time for me to congratulate you—Happy Newly Married.

Although the blessings came a bit late, there was a little bit of heart. "

But Mycroft was very worried about this matter, and he didn't intend to let him go so easily. He crossed his arms and said, "Hmph, Leiter, you missed my wedding. The best friend in my life didn't show up. What a pity it would be!"

"Well, this matter is my fault. In order to compensate you, I will pay for all your consumption in the Nightingale Tavern from now on, how about it?" Leiter spread his hands and smiled helplessly, but he believed in his heart that it was nothing More attractive to McCoff than this condition.

However, the expected satisfaction did not appear. Instead, McCoff said solemnly: "In your eyes, do I seem to be a drunkard? The free coupon of the Nightingale Tavern doesn't appeal to me at all."

"Tsk, who was so fascinated by the neon vortex back then, wishing to drink a hundred cups a day?" Leiter said jokingly, "Although I don't know where your cramp is, I don't even like the Nightingale Tavern. But All in all, it is indeed my fault this time, if you have other requirements, feel free to ask, and I will try my best to satisfy you."

"Are you serious?"

"certainly."

"Then I'll tell you." Mycroft coughed twice, and said, "Hey, Dark Eagle City opened a new Rattlesnake Tavern last month. The boss has several excellent bartenders under him. I tasted it. , I feel that everyone is not inferior to the rum at the Nightingale Tavern."

"So you want to exchange the free coupons from the Nightingale Tavern with the free coupons from the Rattlesnake Tavern?" Leiter squinted his eyes slightly, turned up the volume, and looked at Mycroft angrily and amusedly.

"Neither."

"Then what do you want?" Leiter said in surprise.

"Both!"

“.”

Leiter caressed his forehead, and the black line on his forehead floated, and said helplessly, "Will Vicky agree to you drinking like this?"

"Of course she won't agree." Mycroft said with a smile: "She will only blame me for not bringing her along!

And the consumption at the Rattlesnake Tavern is not cheap, even for me, it is a bit difficult to drink as much as you want. "

"Well, count me as unlucky, you couple are really different! I promise you, the two taverns will be free in the future. But if you deliberately cheat me, don't blame me for not admitting it!" Lei Te showed a heartache look, But in fact, there is no wave in the heart. He can still afford a little wine money.

But he immediately looked thoughtful and asked: "But then again, the name of the Rattlesnake Tavern sounds very familiar, and I should have heard of it somewhere before..."

At this time, the caring Sveta spoke again: "Master, I haven't had time to report this matter to you. She calls herself Lilith. She came to Dark Eagle City in July this year and came to visit you, but I heard that you The news of his absence left, and before he left, he left a message: It was too hard to find you, but thank you for saving your life back then."

"The grace of saving your life? Are you still looking for you so hard?" Mycroft keenly sensed something was wrong, and looked at Leiter suspiciously, "Could it be that you were promiscuous outside and seduced other people's hearts? If so , I misread you..."

"Where did you want to go, nothing!" Leiter gave a blank look helplessly.

Then briefly explained the experience of going to the Kingdom of Rim to subdue the sand elves and passing through the White Pumpkin City.

"Ha, that's how it is!" Mycroft laughed, and touched Leiter with his elbow, "In that case, next time I go to the Rattlesnake Tavern, I will report your name, maybe I can get special treatment!"

"How is it possible, my face may not be so big." Leiter shook his head and said, "Anyway, I will find some time and go to the Rattlesnake Tavern to say hello."

Mycroft was full of smiles: "I'm waiting for your good news. Now I'm going to the training ground first. The little girl Eunika arrived very early, so it's estimated that the wait is going to be anxious!"

Leite nodded and said goodbye to McCoff.

Go all the way back to Dark Rock Hold.

All the servants at close range greeted and warmly welcomed their master's return. Leiter understood the mood of these people, and they all responded with standard smiles.

Stepping on the stairs to the fifth-floor hall, Leiter sat on the bench in front of the fireplace, found the feeling of coming home, and said slowly: "Sveta, how is the leader during my absence?"

Following Leiter upstairs, Sveta, who had been prepared for a long time, bowed and replied: "Master, you have been away for six months and twenty-four days, and the most important thing during this period is to be a member of the Ring Tower." Members visit you, leaving behind a letter and a sealed package.

In addition, both Mog and Baige broke through to the first-order monsters, and Thales' Ice Rat broke through to the second-order monsters.

And as I told you just now, the lady named Lilith came to visit you. "

"The things sent by the members of the Ring Tower?" Leiter said thoughtfully, as if he didn't know, "Where are the things?"

"I put it in your room."

"Then I'll look at it later, is there anything else going on during this period?"

Sveta was silent for a while, and after considering his words, he said: "There is one more thing, which should not be considered important, but I think I should tell the master."

"Please tell me anything."

"It's Lawrence, he broke up with Unica, and then walked with Ola, and Unica seems to have established a relationship with Armando." Sveta shook his head helplessly, and said: "Oh, what a bunch of people People who are passionate and youthful, but the raging blood is always difficult to maintain a solid shape."
