Chapter 654: No Reward
β...... Relying on all the warriors and talents, they fought bravely in this war, although they did not completely expel the invaders of the Orc Empire, but they also suppressed the arrogance of the Orcs, but the war cost the people and money, and the soldiers were already exhausted after a long time of fighting, so they took the opportunity of this Great Dragon Festival to temporarily sign a truce agreement with the Orc Empire, so that the whole country can enjoy this Great Dragon Festival. Today, on the occasion of the opening of the Great Dragon Festival, Your Majesty will give you rewards for your heroic performance in the defense battle! Now the reward ceremony begins! Start the first process!" King Seron's internal officials chattered a lot, and finally the ceremony began.
Then the king of Thuron and a cadre of princes and ministers said a lot, nothing more than the official said, what everyone is heroic, the victory of this war is inseparable from your efforts and so on, it is rare to see King Thuron speak so impassionedly, although this king does not say much, but undoubtedly the effect of his words is the best, that sonorous and powerful words, almost everyone's blood has been mobilized, although the words are simple, but also caused everyone to show reverence, such a leader, why worry about the decline of the empireγ
"Let's go to the seventh process and announce the heroes who have been rewarded this time!" shouted the internal official, in the end, he was professional, and he didn't feel tired after shouting without a megaphone for so long.
And the crowd below is also about to boil, and finally waited for this most important link, if it weren't for the fact that this is a royal forbidden land, maybe this place will be fried at this time. At the stall where the internal officials spoke, a huge brocade cloth was erected in front of the high platform, on which was densely written the name of a person and the corresponding reward.
The internal officer looked at this brocade cloth, cleared his throat, and shouted from the top on the left: "Ammushi Kre, who has been canonized as a baron for his military exploits, has divided the area of the Basket as his direct territory, and has been rewarded with 30,000 gold coins...... Gabao Babylon, who was canonized as a viscount for his military exploits, divided three villages including Liu Bo, Gulf of Aman, and Kemena as his fief, and rewarded him with 10,000 gold coins......"
Every time a person's name is announced, that person gets down on one knee and puts his right hand into a fist to express his gratitude and loyalty, and it may not be possible to stand up until the announcement is made, but most people are happy about it.
"Hey, Renault, tell me what kind of official title we can get? Our record is much more brilliant than those cats and dogs, how do you think that at least they are all earls or above, right? The fief must be at least a few cities, right? The prize money must be at least hundreds of thousands, right?" Ah Wang whispered excitedly to Renault, although it was said that it was not allowed to talk at will, but there were still many people who talked in a low voice, after all, all the heroes here were the heroes of the empire, and the guards turned a blind eye, as long as they didn't talk when King Thuron spoke.
Renaud nodded and said in a low voice: "If it is divided according to the current standard, it is more than enough for us to have an earl, maybe we will also become a big noble, and when the time comes, we will run around, and some taxes from the territory alone will be enough to support us." β
"Thanks to the orcs coming in this time, it can be regarded as a reshuffle of the nobles of several northern provinces, many unlucky nobles are simply dead, and many fiefs are vacant, maybe we can share a big one. An Luoluo was also very excited, after all, this was the result of their many births and deaths in the past two and a half years.
"I said fatty, this reward is shared by all of us, and you have also paid a lot, as the prince of His Majesty King Seron, you should find a way to say a few more good words to King Thoron, so that our reward will be richer, don't you say?" Ngawang poked the fat man's stomach and whispered.
The fat man smiled bitterly and said: "Look at me when I come back for so long, can I go to see my father? Father and emperor can't meet each other, except for those particularly good princes, such as the sixth brother, otherwise a prince like us is not qualified to see his father and emperor casually, and you see, the sixth brother is sitting on it, I just wait below, just look at the difference." β
Ruluer said in a low voice: "I said fatty, you are so dignified and a prince, didn't you say that your father loved you more last year, why did you fall out of favor so quickly?"
The fat man still smiled bitterly, but he still couldn't stand it anymore, and said in a low voice: "Don't talk about fat brothers, this is not an ordinary family, how can it be measured so casually, it's good to listen to our reward, don't wait for it to be missed." β
The reward continues, this old internal official is experienced in the end, and the speed is quite fast, but everyone is very clear, and at this tense moment, many people often ignore the time, and it doesn't take long to feel that most of it has been recited.
"Hey, I said, let's be so behind? Why hasn't it been so long? This doesn't make sense, we have great achievements, so it stands to reason that we should be at the front, right?"
Although Renault was also a little panicked in his heart, he still said: "What are you anxious about, don't you know what the finale is? Since we are not in the battle feats, it is normal to be in the back of the finale, right? Which of you has good eyes, let's see if you can see where our names are on that rag?"
It's a pity that the cloth is too far away, and the words are like ants, and they can't be seen clearly at all.
Time passed minute by minute, and now the internal official was already staring at the name under the brocade cloth to read it, and most of the people in the square had already knelt down, and it was estimated that it would not be long before the reward would be finished.
The zero team is waiting for a worry, and they haven't waited for their reward, although Renault said that there may be another chance for the finale, but in the reading just now, there are some of them with comparable records, but they have still been rewarded, obviously Renault's finale guess is not very valid.
β...... Logardan Antoun, who was knighted for his military exploits, divided the village of Bogarona and its surrounding area as his fiefdom, and rewarded him with 5,000 gold coins. Alright, the award has been read out! Thank you for your grace!" The official said the last sentence loudly at the top of his voice, and it seemed that he was also exhausted.
However, until the end, I didn't hear the reward about the zero team, which made the people of the zero team stunned on the spot, one by one, they were stunned there, they didn't know what the situation was at all, and the people around them knelt down one by one, just they were still standing there, and finally under Xiu Han's reminder, the zero team also had to kneel, and shouted with everyone to thank Your Majesty for your grace, I am willing to go to the soup for the empire, and I will not give up and so on.
"Hey, what's the situation! Why is this without us? This is impossible!" Ngawang said in a low voice on his knees, his face in disbelief, obviously unable to accept such a fact.
Not only Ah Wang, but even everyone else was like this, all of them looked like they were cold in their hearts, and An Luoluo muttered in a low voice: "Did you say that the old guy said that he missed us and missed us?"
"Generally, this situation is impossible, and internal officials are professionally trained, and it is not allowed to make such low-level mistakes....... Maybe my father wants to reward us in particular...... Okay, don't look at us like that, I also know that this probability is not very high, maybe it was really missed, anyway, the cloth is there, and when this reward ceremony is over, let's go and see if it will be clear. The fat man said helplessly.
Fortunately, there are still some people who can recognize Xiu Han and the fat man, and Kong Mo is also here just now, so even if he feels strange about the strange team around him, he will not be embarrassed, let alone ridiculed, and it can be regarded as saving some face for the zero group.
Then there are some nonsense, similar to what was said at the beginning, nothing more than some thanks, and then there are some words of encouragement, what will be the battle with the orc empire in the future, I hope you can continue to carry forward, more heroic for the country to kill the enemy, for the country to contribute to the clouds. Speaking of which, the efficiency of this ceremony is quite high, and it was completed in half a day.
As the official summed up the last sentence, it was over, and there was no special reason, it was naturally impossible for ordinary people to stay here in the palace, and most of them left here with a smile on their faces and went down the mountain.
And there are always some people who haven't left yet, and the unfortunate ones of the zero team are just a handful of people in this part, and the rest of the people who stay are mostly the children of some big nobles, and so on the family fathers, or there are some important things that need to be reported, but the zero team has not been rewarded, and the dead face remains.
When the people were almost dispersed, Renault and his party hurriedly gathered in front of the brocade cloth, this reward needs to be publicized, the brocade cloth is being carried by several guards, ready to be carried to the Golden Square to publicize, and the fat man is still a prince, or can stop these guards, let Renault and the minifigures carefully check.
However, seven or eight people saw more than a dozen eyes from the beginning to the end, one by one, they really didn't find their names, and the last few guards were in a hurry, and one of the guards said love: "That, Your Highness Twelve, we need to take it to publicity, otherwise the civilians below should be in a hurry, you see......"
The fat man didn't embarrass the guards, waved his hand and let them go, and as soon as the guards left, Ngawang couldn't stand it anymore, and said with a look of disbelief: "Impossible, unreasonable! How can this be! How can there be no us! My God, just that group of people, how many military ranks can be the same as us? I'm afraid that many people don't add up to us, right? This is impossible!"
Renault said with a wry smile: "Could it be that we have been working so hard for so long that we can't even be recognized? Fatty, is this something wrong, not to mention our night army, the military exploits of blood and light alone have surpassed many troops, and the entire empire is famous, it is too much to mention it." β
Rurul said: "It's not just you! Fimi and I have also achieved a lot of military feats, not to mention anything else, Fimi's arrows have turned the tide of the war, and I have also assassinated many important officers on the orc side, my God, have we encountered a reward that has been deducted? Is there a royal law here, and who has ever heard that this deduction can deduct all the rewards! Fatty, you have to go and ask your father for an explanation! He personally arranged it for us, this ...... What does this mean now!? Don't you recognize our credit?" The other people, except for Xiu Han, all looked very indignant, and they had to ask the fat man for an explanation.
The fat man also looked helpless and said, "I also want to know why, I also paid a lot, okay? But there is no us...... Wait, I'll ask the internal officials and see what to say, it's really unreasonable. "The fat man is leaving.
However, the fat man hadn't walked a few steps, and just now the internal official in palace clothes walked over by himself, bowed after seeing the fat man, and then said to everyone in the zero team: "Your Highness Twelve, warriors, Your Majesty has an invitation to let you go to the Dark Dragon Hall to meet you." β
The fat man's eyes lit up, and he said, "Lord Neiguan, is this father going to give us a special reward?" I just said that our performance is not bad, and the father should not forget us, right?"
The internal official smiled slightly and said: "I'm just a messenger, I don't know what Your Majesty wants to do, you will know when you go, come with me." After saying that, the internal official took the first step, and everyone in Team Zero followed him, and I don't know when, the King of Thoron who was sitting on the high platform and the empty foam were gone.
Everyone in the palace has entered, but this palace is really too big, even if it is a fat person, there are many places that have not been there, and it is very necessary to guide the way. Under the leadership of the old internal official, a group of people walked through a side door. Along the way, Ngawang whispered: "I'll just say, how can you forget us? Our treatment is really high, it was His Majesty King Seron who personally arranged for us, and now the rewards are all awarded by His Majesty himself, I'm really embarrassed." β
Guang Ningbai muttered, "How do I feel that it's not just a reward, maybe it's something else." β
"Don't be a crow's mouth, you were happy today, little girl, we won't get a reward, and you won't have any money to spend, you know?"
"You can't be so casual when you meet your father, this etiquette can't be messed up, even if our father values us more, once we do something beyond the etiquette, punishment is inevitable. The fat man whispered.
"Okay, okay, you can rest assured, we don't have children, we know how to do it, Your Majesty personally rewarded you, and you will definitely be able to make a lot of money." Rulul said excitedly.
