Chapter 504: Richie's Brainless Powder
Chapter 504: Leitch's Brainless Powder
"I've seen Lord Viscount!"
Leitch looked at the young man in front of him, tall, sunny and handsome, he looked the same age as Bill, but he was not as mature and stable as Bill, and his face seemed to be born with a hint of shyness. At this time, his face was dusty, so that Leitch could be sure that the other party had arrived in his territory after a long journey.
What makes Leqi secretly appreciate is that this young man does not have the arrogance and arrogance of ordinary young nobles between his eyebrows, and it can be seen from the other party's civilian attire at this time that although he is young, he does not have the habit of valuing face and pomp like most young people, and he can make the most reasonable choice in combination with his own situation, which is very rare.
However, there is one thing that makes Leitch quite strange - the other party's eyes look at him are a little wrong! How to say it, the other party looks at his eyes, obviously with eagerness, reverence, joy and other emotions, just like those star chasers on the earth see their favorite stars at close range!
Could it be that I have a brainless fan, too? Richie couldn't help but think a little strangely.
"Baron Karen doesn't have to be polite. Leitch smiled in response, and motioned for the other to sit down and speak.
"Lord Viscount, do you recognize me?!" Baron Karen was pleasantly surprised when Leitch called his name directly, he hadn't had time to introduce himself before!
"Uh," Seeing that the other party was so excited, Leitch was also slightly stunned, and then smiled faintly, "This should be the first time I have met His Excellency the Baron, so it should not be recognized, but the court baron under the command of the Grand Duke said more or less, and combined with your characteristics, it is not difficult to guess your identity." ”
"It turns out that Lord Viscount doesn't know about me-" Baron Karen was obviously a little disappointed when he heard Leitch say this, but he liked Leitch's confession very much, and then saw him look at Leitch seriously and said, "Although Lord Viscount said it simply, but there are not many people who can be as thoughtful as Lord Daqi!"
"Haha, the Grand Duke has sent you all the way over, but not to say some compliments to me! Don't you call yourself a messenger, so hurry up and take out the Grand Duke's letter. ”
"Lord Viscount said yes!" Baron Karen's fair face immediately flushed a little when Leitch teased him like this, but this did not make him feel any embarrassment at all, on the contrary, it made him feel closer to the person he admired, it turned out that the famous Viscount Black Wind was so approachable!
I saw that Baron Karen quickly took out a letter with a magical enchantment from the Star Ring between his fingers. This magical enchantment is not defensive, but if someone opens the letterhead, it will cause damage to the enchantment, but the letterhead will leave traces of the enchantment - a common magical enchantment that allows people to identify at a glance whether a letter has been opened before.
Handing the letter to Angelina, who was standing behind Leech, to hand it to Leitch, he saw Baron Karen add with great seriousness: "I must affirm that what I said just now is by no means a compliment—with the nobility of the 'Eight Virtues of Knighthood' proposed by Lord Viscount, it is not at all something that can be summed up in a mere word of 'well-thought'!"
Well, it seems that he has really met his own brainless fan, and it is estimated that it is still a 'heavy' level, and I have to say that this kind of encounter is not common for Richie......
So Leitch didn't continue to dwell on this issue, but just chuckled lightly, which was kind of revealing the past.
The letter, which was indeed written by the Duke of Princeton, first expressed praise for Leitch's previous proposal of the 'Eight Virtues of Knighthood', followed by a military order for Leitch. Of course, the letter did not specify the content of the next military operation, but simply asked Leitch to lead at least 5,000 soldiers to resist the fortress around the mountain before the 15th of this month!
The lack of an explanation of the military plan is understandable, given the possibility of the letter being lost, but asking Leitch to fend off the Ring Mountain Fortress by the 15th of this month is a difficult one......
Seeing Leitch tapping his fingers lightly on the table, looking thoughtful, Baron Karen couldn't help but say, "Lord Viscount, do you have any doubts about the Grand Duke's order?"
But before Leitch could speak, he scratched the back of his head and said, "Actually, I also think that the Grand Duke's request for the Viscount to send 5,000 troops is a bit excessive, even if it is my father, he will only send 3,000 troops!
As he spoke, Baron Karen, Viscount became a little embarrassed - this couldn't help but make Susan and Angelina and others who were standing on the side feel that this Baron Karen was really interesting, as Duke Princeton's messenger, he was more considerate of Leitch!
As for Baron Karen's father, he is Earl Holren, who is known as the 'Angry Sword' in the Federation, the patriarch of the Aurora family, with 3,000 elite heavy infantry under his command, and was once praised by the Duke of Princeton as the first brave man in the Thunderman territory!
Speaking of the relationship between this Earl of Fury Sword and the Duke of Princeton is not ordinary, before Princeton succeeded to the position of Grand Duke, Count of Fury Sword has always been the captain of his personal guard! Later, after Princeton succeeded to the position of Grand Duke, Hao Lun also returned to the Aurora family soon after, inherited the title of earl, and in many large-scale battles launched by Princeton, Earl of Fury Sword participated in almost every time, and most of them led his Fury Sword and shield soldiers to charge forward, and made great achievements!
And the Baron Karen in front of him is the youngest son of the Earl of Fury Sword, and he is also the most favored one in the legend. However, the title of earl of the Aurora family is estimated to be inherited by Karen's eldest brother, the eldest son of Earl Furysword, and Sir Kane, who also enjoys a heroic reputation in Thunderman's territory. That's why Karen was sent to Princeton's court by Earl Fury Sword when she first woke up, probably so that this little son he loved could have a chance to get a knighthood!
And the fact did not disappoint Earl Furysword, Karen was given the title of baron after the recent battle of the Federal Expeditionary Force against the Succubus Sea, and even got a colony in the Succubus Sea!
"Since Your Excellency Karen is so sincere, then there are some things I won't hide from you - the Grand Duke's order this time is indeed very difficult for me!" After a slight silence, Leitch said bluntly.
Hearing Leitch say this, Karen immediately couldn't help frowning: "My lord, although I don't know the specific details of this battle, the Grand Duke undoubtedly attaches great importance to this battle, and during this period of time, messengers from all over the world have entered and exited the Grand Duke's study almost every day!"
"And the Grand Duke undoubtedly attaches great importance to the Viscount, among the messengers sent to various territories here, most of them are just ordinary knights, or knights and the like, and there are not many who can reach the level of a baron;
Karen's words undoubtedly went beyond his accusations as a messenger. However, he himself has no such consciousness at all, and he probably thinks that all the people present are Leitch's cronies, so he doesn't reveal any rumors that are unfavorable to him;
"I know. Leitch nodded slightly, and said with a smile, "But I won't tell you that in the future, I will carry out a very important military operation! Once this operation is successful, I will need a large number of troops! This is why I will not hesitate to spend a lot of money to hire these mercenaries during this time! To be honest, at that time, with the little force I currently have, I am afraid that I will be overstretched——"
"Lord Viscount is going to have a big operation?!" Hearing this, Baron Karen's eyes immediately lit up, and they were as bright as two stars (this two-dimensional painting style is not normal at all...... )!
What is the most important thing for a brainless fan? Endless money, the favor of beautiful women, and the seductive power...... are not!
As a brain-dead fan of Viscount Black Wind, as long as she talks about Leitch's deeds, Karen simply has too much to say to others, and it is not at all what can be said about "Viscount Black Wind Quotations", "Black Wind Viscount Affair" and so on (uh, I heard that the author of "Viscount Black Wind Quotations" and "Black Wind Viscount Affair" is preparing to release the second edition? This is really exciting!)! But what excites him the most is being able to witness a heroic legend of Viscount Black Wind himself, and that excitement is not something that can be described in any words at all!
Noticing that something was wrong with Baron Karen, Leitch was immediately stunned, but he didn't care, and continued: "That's right, I can't tell you the details of this operation, but you will know soon." And I'm afraid you won't be able to leave the Holy City of Lyra until this operation is over. ”
Seeing Baron Karen immediately looking at him dumbfounded, Richie explained: "Don't get me wrong, in case the news leaks, it is estimated that not long after you entered my territory, the soldiers I sent began to block the passage under the Eagle's Nest Mountain, and they were only allowed to enter and exit! But you don't have to worry-"
As a result, Baron Karen said with a disapproving face: "Worried? Why should I worry? It's too late for me to get excited!"
Finding that Leitch's expression and the expressions of Susan and the others on the side had become a little strange, Baron Karen immediately smiled and said, "I mean, I will completely follow the arrangement of Lord Viscount, and everything will be in your interests!"
Seeing that Baron Karen's consciousness was so high, Leitch was relieved at the same time, and at the same time, he couldn't help but secretly mourn for the Grand Duke, and actually chose such an unreliable messenger......
But what Leitch didn't know was that in fact, Baron Karen himself took the initiative to ask for help in this mission to deliver the letter! Of course, even if it wasn't Baron Karen. Princeton will also send other barons.
"Then I'll be thankful. "As a traverser, all kinds of strange behaviors of creatures like brain-dead fans are within the comprehensible range of Leech, not to mention that the one in front of him is still his own brain-dead fan!
"But you can rest assured that I will explain this matter to the Grand Duke in detail later, and if I can, I will try to make arrangements that are more satisfactory to the Grand Duke. ”
"Finally, allow me to give Karen's Excellency a gift!"
"Slap-" With a slight clapping of Leitch's hands, a snow elf maid walked out with a gold plate covered with red silk cloth, on which lay a delicate watch and a metal card.
"What is this?!" As soon as Baron Karen picked up the watch on the plate, he couldn't put it down, and when he saw the moving hands on the watch, his eyes immediately lit up and said, "Lord Viscount, is this a pocket watch?!"
Of course, he also knows about the new clock and pocket watch newly launched by the Black Wind Chamber of Commerce, these two new things in the fast era, and this is another 'black fan (Black Wind Viscount brainless fan)' capital that can boast to others! It's just that because the time is still short, these two new objects have not had time to be promoted on a large scale, and his own funds have always been relatively tight, so he had only heard of it before, but he didn't expect that now he accidentally got one, and it was still given by Viscount Black Wind himself, which couldn't help but make Baron Karen feel unreal in a dream!
"No, this is not a pocket watch, but a watch - the difference with a pocket watch is that the watch is worn on the wrist, which is not only convenient, but also more temperamental! Haha, the watch I gave to His Excellency Karen is the first watch to really come out!"
"Well, then I'm really unfortunate and honored!" said Baron Karen, who played with the delicate watch for a while, and then picked up the metal card on the plate in anticipation.
But who knew that as soon as he held the card in his hand, his face changed immediately, and he looked at Lei Qi with a serious face and said, "Lord Viscount, what does this mean?!"
