Chapter 18: Baron Blackwind

Early the next morning, Leitch was in a half-asleep and half-awake state of ignorance, and when his eyelids were half-open and half-closed, he actually saw Rowling's old lady - could it be a dream at night?

It's so deceitful that they're all asleep and they're going to tempt me - well, it's a bastard to take advantage of it!

"Hey, this feels ******"

With a loud "bang", Leitch slammed into the wall violently, and his sleepiness suddenly disappeared. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"My bad!"

"Bang!"

In response to Leitch, there was another loud bang.

"The moon represents my heart!"

"Bang!"

There was no doubt that Mr. Leitch had smashed into the wall again.

hit the wall three times in a row, even if he had the talent of a three-headed golden dragon, he began to be a little unbearable, so Leqi was very witty and lay on the ground and began to pretend to be dead.

"Less than the hall ******* in half a minute"

Before Rowling finished speaking, Classmate Leqi, who was lying on the ground and had died completely, immediately came back to life, and then ran towards the hall of the Thor Fortress at a speed that would be ashamed for any first-order brave person to see it.

"Puff*******" Looking at the embarrassed Richie, Rowling covered her mouth and smiled, and a hint of blush flashed on her pretty face.

"Richie, this is Matthew, the Grand Duke's chamberlain. "Now there were only two people in the hall, one was Oventor, and the other was red and white-toothed, and his fingers were like orchids—but he had an Adam's apple******

However, as soon as Owendo said the chamberlain, Leitch understood, because the chamberlain was equivalent to the eunuch on earth. What else can the waiter do to find himself? Obviously, the harvest time has come.

Bidding farewell to Owendo, Leitch followed Matthew into a four-wheeled court carriage to the Palace of the Clouds. Don't look at Thor Island and Yunxiao Palace in the same city, but a city that houses millions of people, think about how huge it is, so if you choose to walk, it will really take quite a while.

"Master Matthew is not only a talent, but he has a very important position at a young age, and he will definitely have a bright future in the future. Inside the carriage, Leitch was talking nonsense.

"Where, you've won the prize, my lord, you've won the prize. Leitch's sycophant is obviously unskilled, and a small chamberlain in charge of passing the word is considered an important position, but Matthew is smiling when he hears it.

******

Inside the carriage, two shameless bastards touted each other, and one of them Leitch quietly stuffed a small bag of gold coins into Matthew's hand.

The bag contained twenty gold coins, which was an astronomical sum for ordinary people. Don't look at Leitch's face pretending to be generous, but secretly he feels distressed as if he has been cut a piece of meat. You must know that the funds of the troll mercenary group are only more than 170 gold coins, and that is not Leitch's alone! Although he doesn't expect Matthew to play a big role, he is well versed in the truth that little ghosts are difficult, and Leitch doesn't feel that this money is unjustly spent.

The carriage traveled for half an hour before it finally reached the outside of the Cloud Palace. After getting out of the carriage and looking at the palace guards around him, Lei Qi's expression was moved--they were all demon sealers wearing ebony black armor! Presumably, this is the Thunderman Knights with only 30,000 people but a great reputation--Thirty years ago, they killed high-level dragons with zero casualties, twenty years ago they defeated 200,000 Abyss Demon Legions, and ten years ago they killed 300,000 kobolds in one fell swoop!

Of course, although the doorman of the Thor Guild is only a first-order brave, it does not mean that the strength is unbearable, and with Leqi's current understanding of his own union, it is estimated that there is no need to put on a show. But if there is anyone who dares to break through without knowing whether to live or die, it is definitely what those fierce fish in the sea like to see - the epic weapon of Thor's hammer has always been placed in the Thor Guild, which is undoubtedly the best proof of the strength of the union.

The Palace of Clouds is located on the top of the mountain, estimated at a distance of thousands of meters from the sea level, like the sky. After passing through seven metal gates in a row, Ricky actually stepped into the main palace.

The palace hall is almost parabolic, divided into three levels, and the apex is where the throne, the Throne of Khosla, is located. The Throne of Khosla, rumored to be made of the hand bones of the Cosilla Behemoth mixed with star-meteoric iron, represents freedom and iron blood, and is also a great testimony to the Federation's War of Freedom!

In the final battle of the Freedom War, the Holy Summoner of the Karachi Empire summoned an epic beast from the Alien Plane - Golden-Eyed Khosla, the legendary chaos beast, one-eyed is destroyed!

But in that battle, Duke Peter of Thunder was also severely injured, and in the end he only lived less than five hundred years old, you must know that the strong man of the holy warrior level has a lifespan of a thousand years!

It's nine o'clock in the morning, and the palace meetings start at eight o'clock every day. When Leech respectfully followed Matthew into the palace hall, he suddenly felt hundreds of eyes fall on him, some curious, some indifferent, some disdainful****** but the hall remained quiet all the time.

The Duke of Preston usually held palace meetings attended only by nobles, but today there were significantly more of them, not only in the second class of the aristocracy, but also in the lower class of commoners, with hundreds of people now standing.

"See the Grand Duke!"

Leitch was half-kneeling, his left hand clasped to his chest, and he meticulously saluted Preston, who had been on the throne yesterday. This is the etiquette of the commoners to the nobles, if it is a nobleman, he only needs to hold his chest with his left hand, and Matthew explained these to him repeatedly a dozen times along the way.

"No courtesy. ”

At this time, Ray really got to see Preston, the supreme ruler of Thunderman's territory. The Duke of Preston looked to be in his early forties, wearing a reddish aristocratic robe and a gold crown, and his whole face looked resolute and majestic, but when he laughed, it made people feel particularly affectionate and admiring.

"Just four days ago, the dastardly Abyss Demon launched a shameful sneak attack on the Supreme Obsidian Temple, and even let an Abyss Knight infiltrate the Obsidian Temple at a huge cost!"

The attack on the Obsidian Temple has not yet been fully spread, and most of the people present do not know, but now when they hear the Grand Duke mention it, everyone can't help but change their faces, whether it is a nobleman or a commoner, many people look terrified, and some people have even cried bitterly, as if the end has come.

"But," the palace hall, which had already begun to be a little noisy, suddenly fell silent as Preston spoke again, "The plot of the Abyss Demon has not succeeded!"

"Oh!"

"Thank you God of War!"

"God of War is invincible!"

******

At this time, both nobles and commoners cheered in unison, as if they had just witnessed a great victory.

"Thank you God of War, may I ask the Grand Duke, I wonder who managed to prevent this disaster?" a nobleman in the second estate asked in a loud voice, drawing everyone's attention to it.

"As Baron Philip said, the main reason why this disaster was successfully prevented is because of my good son Kenneth and this comrade-in-arms from the Thor Guild, Retch!"

"Bang! bang!"

As the baron named Philip took the lead in applauding, everyone in the hall began to applaud enthusiastically. Richie, on the other hand, looked at Philip quietly, and was quite interested in the young baron, who was undoubtedly very good-looking. To Leitch's surprise, Philip spotted his gaze and even smiled back.

"Kenneth!"

"See the Grand Duke!"

Kenneth slowly walked out of the nobility at this time, and with each step, his momentum would increase a point, and when he and Leitch stood side by side in the center of the main hall, a star appeared behind him, and among the stars, a golden Titan roared in the sky, and everyone present felt a domineering and powerful momentum.

"Golden Titan!"

"God-level talent!"

There were bursts of exclamations in the hall, and many people gasped because of Kenneth's incredible talent. And the Duke of Preston had a smile in his eyes, and was clearly very pleased with Kenneth.

"Kenneth, because you killed the evil Abyss Knight at great cost, and thus stopped the demonic plot, you are the hero of the entire Federation!

"Grand Duke Xie!"

Kenneth's cold face also showed a smile at this time. Some of the young aristocrats of the second estate were full of jealousy, but some of them seemed to be genuinely happy. And these young aristocrats are more or less similar in appearance to Preston.

Within the Federation, there are three main ways to obtain a knighthood.

The first is military merit, which is also the main route for commoners to nobility. Even the dozens of field counts, hundreds of field viscounts and thousands of field barons in the entire federation, most of their noble titles and fiefs were obtained because of military merits!

The second is hereditary. However, in terms of hereditary succession, there are also extremely strict regulations, if the previous generation of nobles dies, the heir cannot reach the specified strength within the specified time, or the entire family does not have an awakened person, then the title and territory will be withdrawn, because the top ten lords need a group of subordinates who can fight well, not waste!

The third type is the court title. The descendants of the ten major lords, they will get the title after awakening, but it is only a palace title, except for the ultimate heir, the rest have no fiefs. This is also the ancestor of the ten major lords in order to avoid the sibling wall, which led to the weakening of the strength of the territory.

In addition, some outstanding contributions to the Federation will also be granted court titles, such as Rouen of the Flame Chamber of Commerce, who has the title of viscount, and Philip, who previously caught Leitch's attention, is also a court baron.

Although Kenneth's earldom was only a court title, it was higher than that of all his brothers, and the higher the title, the stronger the knightly order he could form! This had undoubtedly made him ahead of all his brothers on the road to the position of Grand Duke!

"Ratche, in the face of the almost invincible Knight of the Abyss, you did not flinch in the slightest, and even Kenneth did not block the fatal blow, in view of your loyalty and bravery, I grant you the title of Baron!

"Lecki Alec, from now on, I canonize you as Baron of the Black Wind!"

"Grand Duke Xie, the God of War and Lei Man are immortal!"

Unlike Larry, who was full of dead faces, Leitch's face was full of ecstasy at this time, but his mind was quite playful - the archduke who seemed to be above board obviously didn't tell the truth, the Knight of the Abyss was not killed by Kenneth, and the biggest credit should be Richie, but now the protagonist has become Kenneth******;
