Chapter 96 Become a noble from today
At the time of the craze in Loren City, ten days later and five days before the canonization ceremony, Thor arrived at Loren City with Ren and twenty official knights.
Compared to when we came before.
At this moment, Loren City is undoubtedly a bit more lively again, even somewhat comparable to the time of the auction.
It’s just that compared to the beginning, most of the pioneer lords were excited and had different smiles.
This time the smiles have disappeared from most people's faces.
What was replaced was heaviness and worry.
As time goes by, the situation in the entire Northland Province has not improved too much. Especially in the north, a barony has been destroyed again. This is the third barony that has been destroyed in the past three months. You must know that in the past In three years, so many baronies were not destroyed at once.
But this time, it was only three months.
And this is only the barony. The number of destroyed territories of general lords has reached a head-numbing situation.
Even some pioneering lords and baron lords who were not affected were worried.
“It seems that the situation is even more dire than imagined!”
Looking at everyone's expressions, Thor sighed softly.
Before departure, Lajos Assad completed another business transaction and brought back some relevant information.
Thor naturally has some understanding.
But now it seems that this situation is more difficult than he imagined.
“Sir, do you need me to inquire?”
Ryan asked Thor softly.
“Alright, go and find out about it!”
Thor thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
"clear!"
Ren nodded and then rode away.
And Thor continued to enter the city with his troops. ,
After entering the city.
Thor can feel this heavy atmosphere even more.
Steps forward.
Thor looked at the figures one after another, his thoughts flowing.
Unknowingly, his figure arrived at the place where he stayed before.
This place has already been purchased by him.
Checking in at this time is also extremely simple.
It didn’t take long to stay in Thor.
Ryan returned.
"grown ups!"
Leanne spoke respectfully.
“How is the situation?”
Thor asked, looking at Ren who came back with a look of worry on his face.
"Sir, I understand it clearly. It is said that the Kingdom's Earth Dragon Knights are currently under attack from five third-level orc tribes. In addition, the Flying Eagle Knights are also said to be facing two third-level orc tribes. The orc tribes currently appearing in the north have already There are more than twelve, and seven more have appeared in the west. These are just the ones that have appeared so far. Although most of them are only second-level or even first-level orc tribes, they have still caused the destruction of a large number of noble territories. "
Ryan spoke in a deep voice and told the news he had just heard.
Compared to the information obtained in Lajos, the information obtained in Loren City is undoubtedly more.
Just such news, even Thor couldn't help but jump his brows.
As the most elite knighthood in the kingdom, the Earth Dragon Knights are extremely powerful. The Flying Eagle Knights are the most elite force of Marquis Lehman and are equally strong.
The two of them were so shocked at this moment that they couldn't even draw out any strength.
The sensation brought about by this is already big enough.
Not to mention the twelve orc tribes that appeared in the northern part of the Northland Province and seven in the west. These alone are already nineteen.
Even if these nineteen orc tribes are just ordinary first-level tribes, as long as they are not weaklings like timid goblins, they will definitely be able to cause a huge impact on the human territory.
Not to mention, this is not just a first-order orc tribe, but also a second-order orc tribe, and there may even be a damaged third-order orc tribe like the tauren tribe they encountered.
The crisis is indeed greater than he imagined.
Maybe most of the entire Northland nobles can be wiped out this time.
After all, these pioneer lords, except for a few powerful lords, are unable to compete with a second-level orc tribe.
And this is not a good thing for Thor.
If he wants to develop, the most important thing is a relatively stable environment.
Although the Northland Province cannot be truly stable, it cannot be so turbulent.
“Is there any action on the part of Marquis Lehman?”
Thor frowned and then asked again.
At this moment, he can only hope that the Marquis can take care of things.
Although that person didn't care much about it before, it is impossible to ignore such a matter that is related to the stability of the other party's territory.
"Marquis Lehman seems to have invited many powerful noble lords to wipe out the orc tribes in various parts of the Northland Province. It is also said that he dispatched five hundred people of the Flying Eagle Knights to the Autumn Leaf Territory. The rest is unknown at the moment. ”
Ryan nodded, and then spoke out the information he had obtained.
“Invited the noble lords to suppress.”
Thor raised his brows, a little surprised.
He did not expect that there were noble lords who dared to wipe out the orc tribe.
The existence of the tauren allows him to understand the power of the orc tribe.
Even though the average second-level orc tribe is unlikely to be as powerful as the tauren tribe, it is not something that ordinary baron lords can handle.
After all, a baron lord can only have two big knights at most, most of them are just one big knight, and a second-level orc tribe, no matter how weak it is, there are two second-level orcs, maybe even three, or even more .
In addition to ordinary orcs, except for timid goblins who are naturally weak, ordinary orcs cannot be dealt with by ordinary people even if they have not reached the first level.
Obviously, some of the pioneering lords in the Northland Province were far more powerful than he imagined.
But it was only a surprise, and Thor was soon relieved.
You must know that the Dressrosa family is only a family of counts for three hundred years, and the longest noble family in Tulip has been close to a thousand years. Even if they are also count, the family of counts for seven or eight hundred years, and the family of counts for three hundred years. The earl family is completely different, let alone the marquis and duke.
The resources they possess are extremely huge.
In this case, even if it is a pioneer lord, what he will obtain will be far beyond imagination.
It is not unusual for some pioneering lords to have the wealth and strength of a viscount or even surpass a viscount.
Just like the idiot from the Emerson family before, he was surrounded by two great knights.
What about the rest.
The differences between people are sometimes determined from birth.
All roads lead to Rome, but some people are born in Rome, and the end point of a lifetime of hard work is mostly just the starting point for others.
In this era when classes are relatively solidified, this is undoubtedly even more obvious.
Thoughts flowed and thoughts were quickly suppressed.
The night gradually passed by.
When morning comes.
The familiar mechanical system prompt sounded again.
【Daily information has been updated】
The night is passing.
A new day has arrived.
With the arrival of a new day, and when Thor was about to be crowned a baron, a piece of news once again swept through the entire city of Loren like a whirlwind.
Lord Wilmore Beru and Lord Timur Watson in the northern part of the Northland Province gained sufficient merit for their defeat of the orc tribe and their significant contribution to the orc war during this period of suppression. , will also be canonized as a baron at the canonization ceremony four days later. This time, three barons will be born in the entire Northland Province at once.
It is also the first time in the past three years that three barons have been born.
The news once again shocked the whole city.
Even Thor got the information quickly.
“Timur Watson, Wilmore Beru!”
“The Watson family, and the Beru family?”
Thor's brows raised, but he wasn't too surprised.
The Watson family and the Beru family are the most prominent marquis families in the kingdom, and the resources they possess are naturally not comparable to those of the Dressrosa family.
Let’s not even talk about the Dressrosa family, even Marquis Lehman has a huge gap when compared with them.
Before this, the reason why they were not canonized as barons was simply because they did not have enough time and did not have enough opportunities to obtain meritorious service.
At this moment, with the orcs in the North getting ready to make a move, it was undoubtedly their opportunity.
For other pioneering lords, even noble lords, the orc tribe is a huge threat, and for them it is undoubtedly just merit, at least when they do not need to face the powerful orc tribe.
This is also the main reason why they were able to quickly obtain enough merit points to be canonized as a baron in a short period of time.
And this undoubtedly made Thor a little moved.
His strength is not weak at this moment, plus the Maine Alliance.
Even if the strength is different from that of the pioneering lords of this top noble class, I'm afraid it won't be too far behind.
If the other party can obtain enough merit by relying on this method, then it seems that he can too.
Especially, he also has a daily intelligence system, which can not only avoid danger, but may also be able to gain more.
Of course these thoughts only appeared for a moment and were quickly suppressed by him.
That's not what he needs to think about at the moment.
But to complete the canonization ceremony.
Only after completing the canonization ceremony can he truly be called a noble.
The name Tordressrosa truly belongs to him, otherwise after three years, he can only be called Thor, not Tordressrosa.
Time continues to pass.
Two days later.
The other two barons who were about to be canonized also arrived in Loren City.
The preparations for the canonization ceremony were also announced to be completed.
The Loren City Affairs Officer came in person to ask them to participate in the canonization ceremony tomorrow. Marquis Lehman will personally award them with noble medals and declare them to be members of the kingdom's nobility under the witness of the goddess of life.
This night is destined to be sleepless.
The same is true for Thor and the other two noble lords.
Even other pioneering lords in Loren City were somewhat affected.
The night gradually passed.
When the dawn sun shines.
In the room.
Thor got up early in the morning.
Start to quickly tidy up your demeanor.
Luckily it was early enough, otherwise it would have been too late.
When the busy work is completed, the time is about to reach the canonization time.
Thor rode a white horse slowly towards the municipal center.
The square in front of the Municipal Center is already crowded with people.
A large number of freedmen and pioneer lords gathered here.
Under the sunlight, the statue of the Goddess of Life exudes a faint and soft light.
From its feet, a huge red carpet spreads into the distance.
The canonization of nobles is undoubtedly the most solemn event.
Even three court earls came to the kingdom.
At this moment, the three court earls were smiling, and Marquis Lehmann stood on the high steps of the Statue of Life.
The three Thors came from three directions, wearing the most traditional knight costumes and knight swords, slowly coming from a distance.
Walking with them.
Flowers covered the entire ground.
The band played exciting music.
The expressions of the three people were solemn, and every step they took was in line with the etiquette of aristocrats.
When the three of them reached the stone steps.
The Marquis Lehmann and the three court earls stood sideways.
The three of them knelt down on one knee and faced the goddess of life.
The moment they knelt down.
One of the three court earls opened the sacred book in his hand.
"Young knight, are you willing to abide by the eight virtues and nine codes of knights under the witness of the goddess of life?"
A gentle voice sounded.
The whole surrounding suddenly became quiet.
The air also became solemn.
In the solemn environment, along with his words, the voices of the three people also rang out.
"I, Tordressrosa, will be humble, truthful, compassionate, heroic, just, sacrificial, honorable, soulful. I swear to be kind to the weak; I swear to be brave against rape; I swear to fight against all wrong; I swear to defend the defenseless. I swear to help anyone who asks me for help; I swear to harm no woman; I swear to help my brother knights; I swear to be true to my friends; I swear to love those I love until death."
"I!"
"I"
“Young knight, under the witness of the goddess of life, will you loyally guard your territory, fight for your honor, and fight for the glory of the nobility?”
"I am willing, I will loyally guard my territory, fight for honor, and fight for the glory of the nobility."
A series of sonorous sounds rose up.
No light fell.
Just a solemn environment.
With the words falling.
Marquis Lehman stepped forward and handed the three noble badges to the three people in turn.
“You will belong to the young eagles of the Tulip Kingdom from today on. Congratulations on becoming a baron. May the goddess of life bless you!”
Marquis Lehman spoke.
“May the goddess of life bless you!”
The three of them saluted in the same manner.
Then the three of them slowly stood up.
The canonization also came to an end.
Compared with the ancient canonization ceremony, the oath has undoubtedly become a formality, changing from a contract to one that does not require any commitment.
But this is also natural.
As time goes by, there are not many noble virtues left. Not to mention the nine codes, not even the eight virtues can be adhered to by many nobles. If they sign a contract with the goddess of life, they will simply feel that they have lived too long. .
Twelve thousand, four thousand left to be sent tomorrow
