Lilith and the others came back earlier than Hewitt. Her Royal Highness the Princess, the distinguished vice-captain of the Third Knights, was shocked before she even entered the village. She saw a huge flow of people on all the main roads in the village, and people everywhere were happily holding wolf-head flags. (the family emblem I made in a hurry).
"Your Highness, has our territory been invaded by others? Why are there so many people here carrying wolf-headed flags?" The first reaction of the single-celled Stanton was that his nest had been occupied.
"No way? Why didn't I hear any news? Besides, Mr. DuBoer is here, isn't it?" Little Dennis, who was in charge of intelligence for the Knights, thought carefully about it.
"Mr. Montie, what do you think this is going on?" Lilith asked the masked man next to her as she dismounted.
¡°I don¡¯t know, I guess I¡¯ll have to see Diboer to find out.¡± The masked man handed the reins to a soldier, dusted off his robe and said.
There were too many people in Red Bay now. Lilith and her party could only dismount and walk, slowly moving towards the base with great difficulty.
"Sir, someone came outside to donate 10,000 gold coins. Are you going to take a look?" Squadron Leader Kimberly, who was responsible for maintaining order, and Lieutenant Dulica, who was responsible for reception, squeezed into the innermost part of the meeting hall, sweating profusely, and were joined by three people. A makeshift table was set up in front of the desk of the leader of the Third Knights.
"Another one?! What a good thing! Just go through the formalities for him after collecting the money. Why do you have to come to me for this matter?" I don't understand why you are coming to me for this matter. I am currently busy re-dividing Weiss. Because there were too many people coming to sell titles, the territory I had pre-divided in just a few days was not enough.
"Hey, what should I say about this? You'd better go and have a look." Durika said with an embarrassed look.
What's up? Can¡¯t even handle Durika the Mustache? I suddenly became interested, immediately put away the map, stood up and followed the two of them out of the meeting hall.
"Why can't you go through the formalities for me? Is my money no longer money? I won't leave until a few days later." Before I stepped into the signing hall in the No. 1 barracks, I heard a voice from a distance. A harsh sound.
"Commander DuBoer is here!" the soldiers on duty outside the signing hall announced loudly, and the originally noisy room suddenly became quiet.
¡°What¡¯s going on?¡± I walked up to Marcos, the student captain in charge of signing contracts.
"Master, this person doesn't meet the conditions. I won't let him sign, but he insists on signing. Just take a look." An angry young Marcos handed me an unfinished contract.
The contract is very detailed, with the name, location, occupation, expertise, gender, and age of the contracting parties filled in on it. . . . . . ? This person is actually eighty-nine years old?
"Hey, what are you talking about Stevenson" I patted the little man wearing a big-brimmed hat standing in front of Marcos, who turned around reluctantly.
"Hush! Hush!"
"Wow! What a beauty!"
As soon as the little man turned around, the whole hall suddenly became commotion, and many people whistled. I fork! It's actually a woman! And she is such a beautiful girl.
I swallowed secretly, managed to calm myself down, and then pretended to be calm and said:
"Are you Stevenson?"
"No, Stevenson is my great-grandfather, and my name is Helen." The beauty in front of her replied coldly.
Helen? Greek goddess of beauty? I was so focused on looking at that charming face that I even forgot that this beauty didn¡¯t give me a gift.
"Uh Let me tell you, Miss Helen, this knighthood is also conferred with the title of knight. This means that you must be prepared to respond to the call of the knights and go into war at any time. Your great grandfather is afraid that he will not be able to walk. Isn't that right? Okay?" I don't know how I said it so tactfully. I remember I didn't do this when I first met Lilith.
"What's wrong! My grandpa Zeng has been an infantryman for the empire all his life. When he is old, he has a wish to be a knight. Isn't it okay? Besides, we still donate money." Helen became sad when she talked about grandpa Zeng. There were tears in his eyes.
I am most afraid of girls crying, especially such a beautiful girl.
"Okay, okay, don't cry! Hey, let's do this. You ask your Grandpa Zeng to come over. This contract must be signed by him in person before it can take effect." I slyly asked Helen a difficult question. I guess Grandpa Zeng was afraid that Already too old to walk.
"Grandpa! Come on, the leader has agreed! Hee hee" Helen burst into tears and smiled, waving to the crowd excitedly. After a while, two tall servants squeezed in carrying a wooden bag. An old man without legs sat leisurely in the wooden bag.
"Captain Diboer, retired swordsman Stevenson of the Second Regiment of the First Legion reports!" The old man sat in a wooden pocket symbolicallyThe nodded.
I¡¯ll do it! Sure enough, I expected it again. Not only could the old man not be able to walk, but he could not even stand up. But out of respect for the old swordsman, I respectfully gave Stevenson a knighthood.
"Old man, what title do you want to donate?" I walked to Marcos' seat and sat down, looking at the unfinished contract in my hand and said.
"Well, I'll just donate three first-class knighthoods." Old Man Stevenson said calmly.
"Gudong" I heard the sound of swallowing saliva around me. Three first-level knight viscounts, a total of thirty thousand gold coins! It's not that a wealthy businessman or a big lord can't afford so much cash. This old man is definitely not a lord, otherwise he would not come to buy a title, and he does not look like a businessman at all, because no businessman would be stupid enough to buy three titles at once. Just one is enough to honor his ancestors. I took a closer look at the contract, but I didn't find anything wrong. Stevenson's occupation was "Retired Infantry," and the territory was the enclave city of Liskaya Province. Although it was a place at the junction of the three countries, there was nothing wrong with it.
"Old man, who do you have the other two names to fill in?"
¡°One is Louis, and the other is Louis¡¯ brother Paparoni.¡± The old man said with certainty.
I handed the contract to Helen, motioned her to continue filling it out, and then told Kimberly to continue working, and then I started chatting with old man Stevenson.
I was very interested in the empire¡¯s enclave cities, so I was the first to ask about the enclave cities.
The Enclave City is located on the Ark Continent in the south of the Kempas Strait. The Ark Continent is a suspended land, and about a hundred rods deep underground is the rushing water of the Kempas Strait. The enclave city is located in the southeast of the Ark Continent, backed by the Malaga Empire. Half a day's journey to the northeast is the Cloud Castle of the Grand Duchy of Patek, and to the northwest is the Sunrise Fortress of the Kingdom of Garin. Due to its special geographical location, the enclave city has become the most prosperous city in the empire. Almost all large business groups on the mainland have set up chambers of commerce there. Caravans traveling from various places turned the enclave city into a center for collecting various information, so intelligence organizations from various forces also came in one after another, including the Red Winged Bat Organization of the Shilin Kingdom, which was the most influential in the official world, and the Red Wing Bat Organization in the The headquarters of the most influential Skeleton Tavern among the people.
Old man Stevenson said that he was born and raised in the enclave, so his family took advantage of the geographical location to do various businesses. I asked him what the deal was? But the old man didn't want to go into details, he just said it could make money.
"Damn it! If you don't make money, how can you, old man, donate your title?" I thought to myself.
After a while, Helen filled out the contract, checked it over, and handed it to me. I stopped talking to Old Man Stevenson and read it carefully:
cross! Before I finished reading, I felt very dizzy. You said you can just get a girl, but you still have to get Helen, who looks good and can induce people to commit crimes. If Helen stays in the Third Knights, will you let those bachelor guys live? And what about Paparoni, who dares to become a knight at only nine years old?
"Hey, Stevenson, what are you trying to do with thisare you kidding me?" I stood up angrily and almost slammed the table.
"Who says girls can't be knights? Just ask everyone. If I remember correctly, Her Royal Highness Princess Lilith is also a knight, please tell me!" Before old man Stevenson could answer, Helen stood up. Those When the guys who had signed and those who were about to sign saw that this angelic beauty was going to join the Knights, and she might have the opportunity to kiss her in the future, they all started howling:
"That's right! Why can't it be done? Our empire doesn't have such a rule!"
"Who says otherwise! Her Highness Lilith is a female knight!"
"If she doesn't let her sign, we won't sign either"
I¡¯ll do it! This beauty disaster is really not an exaggeration. Helen, who has not yet joined the Knights, will rebel. If she joins the Knights, she will not rebel against me. . . . .
"I won't talk about you anymore, Stevenson. What's going on with this nine-year-old Paparoni?" I couldn't afford to offend beautiful women, so I had to turn my attention to children.
"Paparoni, the leader thinks you are too young. I don't want you!" Helen actually spoke again, "Has this woman participated in too many prize competitions? Why is she so good at answering questions" I get up.
"What! Why don't you want me!" There was a burst of laughterThere was a loud roar, and the two big men carrying the wooden bags turned to look at me, and one of them even raised his neck and roared.
""
I was completely dumbfounded. What did this family eat when they grew up? ! Even the little baby has grown so big. . . . . .
