Chapter 117: Marriage Proposal and Showdown
I didn't expect that it was actually a non-combat attrition caused by kidney replenishment, which was really unexpected.
William raised his eyebrows and thought about it, he still had an impression of this guy named Bourne Cossot, when he first tried to "help" the young knights to advance, the Tie Hanhan who perfectly avoided all the traps was him, and he didn't look like he was kidney-deficient, what are you doing eating horsewhips when you have nothing to do?
He glanced at Hans, who looked a little sluggish, and the person who really needed to replenish his kidney was his bearded cousin.
I don't know if it was because of the excessive blood loss, or if it was a little seriously juiced yesterday, Hans's thickly haired little black face was actually faintly pale, and he met William's inquiring gaze, raised his bandaged arm and scratched his head a little awkwardly.
"Cousin, what are you looking at me for?"
William retracted his gaze and replied lightly, "I don't do anything, I just suddenly have an idea and am going to discuss it with you." ”
"Huh, what do you think?"
"Do you remember the knights we brought out of the royal capital?"
The bearded cousin nodded ignorantly. "Of course I remember, what's wrong?"
"At that time, Her Majesty made you commander and made me deputy commander. ”
Hans scratched his head again in bewilderment. "Ah...... It turns out that I am the commander, and I always thought you were the commander. ”
William's eyebrows raised, you are the commander! The legion panel can only look at the members under his command, and it is because you are the commander that I can't look at your attribute panel, because you are nominally my boss.
He said with a flat face: "Hans, I want to discuss with you, can you give me the position of this commander?"
The bearded cousin nodded and agreed to William's request without hesitation. "Okay, besides, this commander should have been done by you, let me charge with them, I can't do anything else. ”
[You have been appointed as the leader of the "Knights of the Royal Capital (Pseudo)"]
[Legion Name: Knights of the Royal Capital (Pseudo)]
[Clan Level: Level 1]
[Legion: 32/1000]
[Clan Trait: Ramming, deals more damage to low-velocity targets......]
......
Wilhelm patted Hans on the shoulder with satisfaction, clicked on the list of members amid the honest laughter of his bearded cousin, and lifted Hans's pants...... Properties panel.
[Name: Hans Van Kins]
[Race: Human, Half-Blood Demon (Berserker, Succubus)]
[Prestige: French Empire 153/1000 (Honorable)]
[Armor: 8/10]
[Status: Low energy, anemia] [Special Status: Destiny]
[Talents: Detection Aura, Battle Continuation, Favor of the Opposite Sex]
[Stunts: Natural Battle Maniac, Charm Temperament, Armor Mastery, Glory Barrier, Block Mastery, Great Strength]
......
[Spirit] 20
[Evaluation: Amazingly powerful meat shield for defense]
William's face darkened a little, and a series of question marks flashed through his mind.
The spirit value is actually about the same as mine?And what the hell is that fate?Opposite-sex favorability?Charming temperament?This attribute panel is fake, right?
To be sure of the truth of the incident, he looked up and carefully examined the bearded cousin's face, for his skin was dark and a little rough because of the frequent exposure to the wind and the sun.
Although his dark eyes were as bright as those of a young man, he looked like a forty-year-old man with a beard that almost reached his neck, and William even saw a small piece of bread crumbs on his black and shiny beard.
Are you sure this face has a so-called seductive temperament?
But William thought about it, and felt that there was nothing wrong with it. The bearded cousin Fang Ling was seventeen years old, although the marquise was older, but she was not small elsewhere, there was no reason to fall in love with him, maybe this charming temperament was more provocative.
William retracted his gaze and re-studied Hans's attribute panel, among which he was most concerned about Hans's status bar, anemia is not difficult to guess, it should be caused by excessive blood loss before, if there is a lack of energy...... After all, it is said that they fought all night, which is completely understandable.
The problem is that special state called the bell of fate, whether in this life or in the previous life, William has seen this state for the first time, and it looks like a bullpen in the venue.
He curiously clicked on the special state and looked at the instructions.
[Special Status: Favored by Fate, the person is loved by fate, and the probability of triggering a small probability of special events has increased significantly]
How special is the so-called special event? Can going to the toilet and the torn paper be counted as a small probability special event?
"Your Majesty. While William was peering into the privacy of his bearded cousin, Pomona finally made up her mind to get rid of Avril.
She stood up and bowed down, performed the standard noblewoman's etiquette, and said with a serious face, "I am willing to accept your terms on behalf of my tribe, although this is only my personal opinion for now, but I will do my best to persuade them." ”
Avril smiled softly at her words, stood up and grabbed Pomona's arm.
"Very good, then I thank you for your trust on behalf of the French royal family, and I believe that in the future, you will not regret your choice today. ”
However, Pomona did not get up, she continued in a bowing posture: "Your Majesty, I have a personal request that I hope you will fulfill. ”
Avril nodded inexplicably and said, "Okay, you can talk about it first, if it's within my ability, I won't refuse." ”
Pomona glanced at Hans, who was whispering to William, and said categorically, "I hope you can marry Hans to me, and I will definitely treat him well." ”
......
As soon as she said this, everyone else in the tent was stunned.
The bearded cousin stood dumbfounded, completely unable to believe that he had been proposed to by a woman; William touched his chin and began to wonder if being proposed by a woman could be regarded as a special event with a small probability; Avril covered her lips, her beautiful eyebrows narrowed into two crescents.
"Pomona, hehe, our side is not the same as yours, usually only men will say this, but I understand what you mean, do you want Hans to join your family?"
"That's right, that's what I meant!"
Pomona nodded unabashedly, and she got up to look at Hans, who looked as aggressive as the grand "city" in front of her.
The former marquise had a lot of calculations in her heart, and the purpose of her return was to persuade the clansmen to accept the conditions, which was not an easy task, and it would take a month or two to go.
After being separated for so long at once, if you don't put the "steamed bun" in your arms first, what if you run away when you come back? Not to mention that there is that suspicious cousin watching from the side......
A series of images flashed through Pomona's mind, and she glanced at William with great wariness, anyway, to keep Hans away from his cousin anyway!
William keenly caught this look, and as that vigilant gaze swept over his body, a rather intense malice rushed over his face, causing goosebumps to rise in his back.
After discovering that Pomona's eyes kept roaming over himself and Hans, William suddenly understood the meaning behind his eyes, and couldn't help but be furious.
What the fuck are you thinking? Am I like the kind of person who is interested in sticks and chirps?
Seeing that Hans's suspicious cousin looked at her with some annoyance, Pomona's heart couldn't help but tighten, and she became more and more determined in her thoughts.
Hans must be kept away from him! Otherwise, the man she managed to get her hands on will be gone! In order to prevent Wilhelm from jumping off the wall in a hurry, she even had an idea and came up with a brilliant solution without a teacher.
Pomona stared at William's expressionless face, and pleaded in a rather sincere voice:
"Your Majesty, I am not a man of many words, and the guard behind you has not only defeated Giber, but also seems to be very shrewd and capable, I wonder if you can send him out to help me persuade my people?"
William's eyes became more and more annoyed, if it weren't for the [Careerist's Face] suppressing part of his expression, his face would be darker than the bottom of the pot now.
However, Hans's face beside him changed first.
After noticing that Pomona's eyes had been locked on William, the bearded cousin was also nervous.
He suddenly remembered some of the previous pictures, when he was bandaging the wound at the top of the tent, Pomona had been paying attention to her cousin, not only took the initiative to ask, but also cared about whether her cousin had ever been married, as if she had watched her cousin swallow saliva secretly......
Hans, who never interjected in "national affairs", opened his mouth for the first time.
He stretched out his hand and tugged at William, who was glaring at Pomona, and said with a somewhat evasive look in his eyes: "Cousin, how far is it on the grassland, it's very inconvenient to go there, and you may not be able to come back for several months, and Her Majesty the Queen needs you so much, or you should stay and protect the Queen!"
???
William was stunned by the sudden backstabbing and when he glanced back at Hans, he instantly understood everything.
, are you two poisonous, and where am I threatening you?
Pomona's thoughts were barely hidden, but Hans's thoughts were like lice on a bald man's head, no! it was a lion on a bald man's head!
Looking at the bearded cousin's little eyes fluttering around, William knew what he was thinking without lifting his tail. My cousin, who used to be pure and immaculate, is now beginning to suspect that my cousin is not pure!
In this camp full of mille-feuille, Hans, who was seen through at a glance, was on the first floor, Avril who saw through Hans at a glance was on the second floor, and Pomona, who was quite hidden, was on the third floor, but William had seen through everything and stepped into the fifth layer in one step.
The problem is that he is standing a little too high now, feeling the double suspicion from his cousin and younger siblings, William is so sad and angry that he wants to look up to the sky and howl, the fifth layer is so cold!
At this time, Her Majesty the Queen made a decisive move to put an end to the intrigue in the camp.
She smiled and said to Pomona, "Then Hans will be handed over to you, as for William's words......"
Avril thought about it, and was a little reluctant to let William leave, after all, her life had entered the countdown, and she basically saw one side less, but she thought about it again and again, and still gritted her teeth and was ready to agree.
"He's going with you to the grass ......."
"Wait!" William walked past Hans and interrupted Avril's decision.
My cousin guarded me from putting a hat on him, and my younger brother and sister guarded me from her husband, and I went to the prairie with the two of them because I had a problem! Besides, I still want to build a Flame Legion, and then pit Leonard, if I leave Fran now, won't I be blind?
"I won't go to the grassland with me, you can persuade if you can, if you can't persuade you. ”
He activated the [Careerist's Face], sank his face and threatened expressionlessly: "Then I will burn the pasture every autumn when the grass is the fattest, kill the horses when the horses are the thinnest in the spring, poison the water source when the water is the most scarce in the summer, and prohibit trade in the winter when the grain is the least."
In addition, from time to time, small groups of elites are sent to attack and harass, burning grasslands, poisoning, and killing young beasts, and these things don't take many people, as long as they guard the checkpoints in the north, they will either move sooner or later, or they can only die on the city wall. ”
"It's not that Fran can't deal with the barbarians, it's just that he hasn't been able to spare his hands.
That's all there is to it, what are the benefits of agreeing to Her Majesty's terms, and what are the consequences of rejecting Fran's kindness, I believe you understand it, and I hope that when you return, you will be able to bring back good news for both of us. ”
......
Pomona dragged her bearded cousin away with a complicated expression, and William and Avril were finally the only two people left in the camp.
Her Majesty the Queen stretched lazily, and glanced at William with a pair of peach blossom eyes that seemed to be smiling: "William, the method you said seems to be good, or we just do what you say, right?"
William shook his head and said with a flat face: "You are joking, the method I said is just to scare and scare her, hoping that she will do her best, if it is really not difficult to do, the grassland is too big, just determining the location of the grassland, water source, and tribe is a problem." ”
Her Majesty smiled. "Hehehe, yes, we don't have that many people to draw maps. Moreover, there is a lack of conspicuous landmarks on the grassland, and even if there is a map, it is not always possible to find the location.
However, Pomona will be frightened by your words, so be careful that she goes back and her anger on your cousin. ”
William smiled and didn't answer, but put his hand in his pocket and rubbed it against a cold, hard round object, which was Hans's lucky coin.
As he walked past his bearded cousin, he touched the coin, and then he was going to verify something, which he needed to use the coin's abilities.
"Your Majesty. ”
William looked up into Avril's eyes, and asked in a flat voice:
"Are you sure there's nothing you need to tell me?"
