Chapter 48: The Sword Pointing East (8)

"Earl, I heard that your Madelson knights are extremely brave!?"

Randy was drinking cold wine, and there was a person holding a parasol behind him, accompanied by two beautiful women on the left and right, looking very comfortable.

And the Earl of Winchester, who was next to him, was facing the sun, and he didn't have such a good treatment as Randy, and he replied with a smile while wiping his sweat with a handkerchief.

"Indeed, speaking of the valor of the Madelson Knights, in the whole of England, and even in the whole of Norman, I am in the top three, and it is my blessing to have his allegiance." The Earl of Winchester replied.

At this time, the knights who are talking about both sides appear......

The knight was also very coquettish with a red rose in his mouth, and while maneuvering his mount to trot forward, he received the admiring exclamations of the ladies and ladies next to him.

"Looks pretty good."

Randy raised his eyebrows, hating the little white face with peach blossom eyes.

But hate it, hate it, the opponent's strength is quite good, and he defeated several knights who challenged him one after another, and let his knight squire ask for the opponent's armor.

Speaking of knighthood, there is such a rule that the winner can use the armor and weapons of the loser as trophies, but then again, the knights are not garbage, and there is nothing special on them except for the armor weapons and horses that can be worth a little money.

At this time, the Madelson knights had won several games in a row, but all of them were knights under the command of other turtle nobles, or ranger knights who came over temporarily to join in the fun and wanted to be in the limelight.

The Norman elite knights under Randy's command all looked disdainful and didn't want to play at all, the armor of those knights was no different from scrap metal in their eyes, and they couldn't afford to pay the knights' salaries on time every month.

At this time, the Madelson knight, who seemed to be a little carried away, ran around the entire training ground coquettishly, and after receiving the cheers of the people, he also deliberately ran to Randy's location, Randy began to think that this guy wanted to be loyal to him and join the National Knights, but the people directly threw the roses he had been holding for a long time and threw them at Artoria.

Randy's face changed instantly, and Artoria snorted lightly, directly drew her sword, and slashed the rose thrown at her in two.

"Good technique!"

Randy chuckled and patted his wife's ass, then looked at the frightened Earl of Winchester.

"Count, it's okay, it's okay, I'm not angry, really." Randy also walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder, almost didn't scare people out, at this time Randy had unconsciously blessed everyone in the audience with the BUFF of Hades Scream, coupled with Randy's brutality of up to 16 stars, Earl Winchester bore the brunt, and it was not bad that he was not scared to death.

"No, no, no......"

The Earl stuttered for a while, not even saying a complete sentence, and finally Randy laughed and lifted his battlefield mode, and the Earl of Winchester suddenly felt a little lighter, and finally recovered.

"But...... Count, you see, this knight contest always lets you knights of the ministers end the game, and I don't like watching it, why don't we send a knight to the end of the competition? ”

"Completely obey Your Majesty's orders!"

At this moment, the Earl of Winchester was in a mess, but in short, he didn't have any good ideas, and for a while he felt sorry for the knight who had finally won over him was dead, and all the money he spent before was wasted, and he was afraid that not only did he not shoot the king's ass this time, but made the king angry.

"Good!"

Randy smiled and sat down on his throne, snapping his fingers as the knight standing behind him in full black heavy plate armor and a full-coverage helmet bent over.

"Viscount Alpha, go and have a good fight with that Madelson knight."

The knight's voice was unusually hoarse and harsh, like the friction of claws scratching at a blackboard, perhaps through the mask.

"My lord, my subordinates understand," After speaking, the knight walked away quickly, and at this time, the people around him felt that a cold feeling that he had inexplicably felt before disappeared, and the man who was called Viscount Alpha by Randy, covered in black heavy armor, was the retinue that Randy specially recruited for this contest with 1500 points:

Captain Death Knight

And his ability is to be able to rule for the monarch +1, +1 brutality, +1 force, a really powerful retinue, and one more characteristic than the average death knight, that is, he can fight, especially can fight.

Just two hours ago, before the Knights Tournament began, Randy directly appointed Alpha as his captain of the guard and made him a viscount.

This decision upset the other Guard Knights!

Who is Randy? paid the most attention to democracy and public opinion, so he played a knight game in a small area,

The knights of the guards sent three people to test Viscount Alpha's mounted spear, walking sword, hand-to-hand combat,

In the end, Alpha won a complete victory, and won extremely beautifully, which was the only way to conquer this group of unruly knights of the Guard.

The knights of the guard looked at the new captain and sneered, exuding aura, stepping on the back of the horse wearing a black vest and red eyes, and understood that in this game, that kid was definitely dead.

The Madelson knight's intestines will be repentant, seeing Artoria cut his rose in two, then he remembered the object of his courtship, in addition to being the queen of the Norman kingdom, but also the queen of horror across the British Isles, Madelson debuted relatively late, he has not seen Artoria's methods, and he did not participate in the series of battles that can be called the Celtics' final gorgeous one-act play, but only hearsay, and most of his heart does not believe it.

Until now, whether others believe it or not, Medelson believes it anyway.

When exactly did Artoria draw her sword?

Madelson didn't see it clearly, there was a substantial difference in strength between the two sides, equivalent to the distance from the Earth to the Moon.

At the same time, Madelson was sure of one thing!

The Norman king was a very powerful, but extremely brutal and harsh ruler, who obeyed his will and could get everything, but if he disobeyed his will, his life would be lost.

Right now, for example, the knight in front of Madelson is putting a lot of pressure on him.

Whether it was the ink-black armor, the ink-black war horse, or the ink-black armor that was more slender and longer than the average riding spear, it all gave him great pressure.

"I protested that the riding gun he was holding was not a practice gun." Madelson protested with extreme weakness.

At this time, the referee did not come out to show the yellow card, on the contrary, there were many Norman elite knights and guard knights under Randy's command, and they let out a mocking hehe.

No one paid any attention to him!

At this time, Madelson realized that the other party was probably going to kill him.

When I thought about it, my heart instantly clicked, and my brain began to circle rapidly.

I'm afraid today's things can't be good, do you want to find a way to break through?

If you can escape from here, you only need to pass through the vast Black Forest, opposite Sweden, and then you will join the Swedish King Gustav and come back to take revenge, but the most important thing at the moment is to defeat the black strange knight in front of you.

But the wish is beautiful, the reality is cruel.

Viscount Alpha on the other side completely ignored Madelson's mental activity and directly regarded him as a dead man.

The riding spear in his hand was raised horizontally, and the giant cavalry spear that was nearly five meters long seemed to have no weight at all in the hands of the death knight, and the black light rushed towards Madelson in a flash.

Randy looked at the Earl of Winchester next to him and asked, "There are a few tragic knights who died in the knighthood, and this is just an unfortunate accident, right, Earl?" ”

"Your Majesty is right!" The Earl of Winchester was sweating profusely and could not tell whether it was hot or cold.

Speaking of which, Randy blatantly cheated in front of so many nobles to kill Madelson, not just because he provoked Artoria, the so-called way of the royal family is in response to the combination of grace and power, more than two hundred nobles dragged their families to New Nimegen for a walk, Randy invited guests to dinner, that is, sent clothes and jewelry, and rewarded according to the degree of the title, this favor has been given, so, where does the prestige come from?

Nature is punishment, and what is the most serious punishment?

Naturally, it is murder!

You always need a reason to kill someone, you can't just kill it, right?

So Madelson's death rush hit the muzzle!

Seeing that the other party was rushing at a very fast speed, Madelson on the other side wondered why this guy was wearing such heavy armor and could run so fast, but he still shouted and prepared to charge.

The two sides began to fight......

Madelson thought to himself:

The length of the opponent's spear is more than twice as long, and he will definitely stab himself first, but because of the length, the difficulty of adjustment will also increase, as long as he dodges in an instant, then the length of a few meters will not take a second, and he will be able to run, and then don't blame me for the black hand,

At the moment when the two war horses charged, Madelson saw the other party's spear stabbing at his neck, and his pupils instantly shrank to the size of a needle, and he quickly dodged sideways.

Immediately after that, I heard the crowd shouting......

Madelson thought he was applauding his excellent dodging skills, but then he noticed that the other man had turned his horse's head and ignored him.

Is this an escape? Didn't he know the consequences of doing so?

But looking at the way he raised his arms, it seemed to be cheering!

Wait a minute...... This...... This feeling is ......

Madelson suddenly felt as if his body had been hollowed out, his eyes were dark, he fell to the ground, one foot was still hanging on the stirrup, he was dragged by the war horse for a while, and his whole face was torn before stopping.

On his erect neck, a bloody flower suddenly burst out......

Madelson is killed, Death Knight Alpha wins!

At this time, the other knights were either happy or afraid.

And Artoria fell into deep doubts, as a legendary warrior, her eyesight is far beyond ordinary people, and her dynamic vision is also extremely good, just at that moment, she seemed to see that Madelson was indeed able to dodge this blow, but I don't know why, the riding spear in the opposite Alpha's hand seems to have become a little longer, this is definitely not because of Alpha, the money on his arm, but his riding spear itself has become longer.

Seeing his wife sitting next to him and rubbing his eyes, Randy, who also knew the reason for the matter, smiled, took Artoria's hand and asked.

"What's wrong?" Randy asked.

"Nothing!"

Artoria felt that no one would believe such a thing.

"I think it's about the same now, it's not early, we should have lunch." Randy then offered a killer idea.

"Good!"

Artoria quickly forgets about this unusual strange thing and begins to think about what to eat for lunch, and Randy breathes a sigh of relief.

One of the Death Knight's inherent skills......

"Absolute Hit Gun"

At noon, the group started a barbecue in the suburbs, and Randy began to complain to Enides:

"What the hell is going on?"

"What's going on?"

"It's the city of Iceland, what's going on?"

"Host, I don't understand what you mean."

"I was trying to connect that city with the system, trying to train some smoothbore musketeers, build a few pieces of plate armor, and build a few more Karak galleons, but I couldn't build troops, what's going on?"

"That's because the host's technology level is not up to standard!" Enides was calm.

"Didn't you say that city ignores technology?" Randy was a little anxious, he now suddenly felt like he was being tricked by Enides.

"Host, I mean, the buildings there are built regardless of the tech level, but I didn't make it clear that the classes, weapons, and other items can ignore the tech level."

"So many things, can you only see them and can't use them?"

"Yes, that's right!"

Randy now finally understands that by offending Artoria by joining forces, he ended up with such a useless city.

Randy has also checked the specifics of Iceland before!

There is not much arable land available, although agricultural buildings have been upgraded to luxury estates, crop rotations, irrigation, but the agricultural harvest is not much, fortunately, a lot of aquatic products can be caught at the large fishing docks, but even so, because the environmental conditions are too harsh, the total population of Iceland is only a few thousand, and the population growth rate is only 1.5% with the addition of many buildings.

As for the specialties......

There is absolutely nothing worth mining iron ore, copper ore, tin ore.

And because the climate is so cold, it is impossible to make pottery or glass, and the only thing that can be exported is fish, but no one will have enough to do so when they import fish from Iceland.

Commerce......

While large commercial docks and large commercial blocks are well built, what's the use of so much?

Is there so much merchandise for sale?

Even with so many goods, does Iceland have that much purchasing power?

So business tax in Iceland can't be counted on at all!

To sum up, the agricultural tax, the poll tax, the mining tax, and the commercial tax add up to only more than 1,600 gold coins, and the white blind is such a big city, and Randy feels cold in his heart, and originally thought that although the tax is a little less, it would be good if he could recruit a strong army, who knew that in the end, Enides actually gave himself such an answer.
