Beta soon spotted Roland, and he immediately stood up and waved at Roland: "Brother Roland, come here." ”

Roland walked over.

The girl who seemed to be a paladin also stood up.

"Brother Roland, this is Dinah, the person who sent me the task." The youthful anger on Beta's face had subsided a lot: "Dinah, this is my good friend, Roland. ”

"Hello." The girl named Dinah nodded slightly to Roland: "I have heard Lord Shuk talk about you, saying that you are one of his best friends. ”

"You're a paladin." Roland smiled.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with his spiritual perception.

The girl nodded: "It's also the worst of all the holy warriors." ”

She spoke softly as she invited Roland to sit down.

Then he continued: "It's far from a genius like Your Excellency Shuke. ”

Roland felt that this was Dinah's humble words, after all, they were all holy warriors, and they were all professions hand-picked by the goddess, so it stands to reason that they were not too far behind.

But actually...... Dinah is telling the truth.

The gap between the Paladins and the Paladin, even if they are of the same rank, may sometimes be greater than the gap between streams and rivers.

Shuk was the most gifted of all the paladins, and this is a fact recognized by all.

In contrast, Tina's talent is at the bottom. But it doesn't matter.

Normally, as long as your behavior does not deviate from the teachings, the Paladin profession is lifelong, even if your strength is weak and you do not grow.

Because only the Goddess of Light has the right to 'reclaim' the status of the Paladin.

Pouring a glass of fruit wine for Roland, Beta said: "Brother Roland, you are the fastest, Li Lin and they estimate what will happen in a few days." ”

Roland nodded: "After all, I will teleport, hurry up and normal." Then again, what exactly is the mission? ”

Beta subconsciously looked left and right, as if he was afraid that outsiders would hear.

Dinah smiled on the side and said, "Don't worry, even if I let others know, I won't give them this task." ”

When the girl spoke, she looked straight at Beta, and her eyes were bright.

Roland took a sip of the wine, looked at Dinah, then at Beta, and nodded secretly in his heart.

But Beta didn't seem to understand the meaning of the girl's bright eyes, and instead of making eye contact with Dinah's eyes, he said to Roland, "Lady Dinah has given me a task to go to a ruin to find some bright well water and come back, and the reward is ...... A viscount who belongs to the Albiscus family, and also has a fairly large piece of land as my domain. ”

Roland was stunned for a moment: "The real power of the aristocracy is divided? ”

Beta nodded.

Roland looked at Dinah in disbelief, this girl can promise such generous conditions, this is too willing.

There is a big difference between a true aristocrat and a quasi-aristocracy, that is, a real aristocracy has a territory and a subordinate 'family'.

Although Beta was an aristocrat before, this was the advantage that his status brought him, but he was only a quasi-aristocratic and had some privileges, but he did not really step into the aristocratic class.

When he got the territory, it was a completely different situation.

And the 'land' of the whole country is limited, and if it is given to you, I or others will have less.

Therefore, for the aristocracy, land is quite important, very important, and an important strategic resource that would almost rather die than throw away.

Does this girl have the right to give up a large piece of territory?

What would the people in her family say?

Seeing Roland's slightly puzzled expression, Dinah explained, "That territory was originally mine, and ...... There are almost no people living in that territory, so after Beta gets it, he has to spend a lot of effort to transform it. ”

Roland thought for a moment and said, "Forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, is that territory all mountains and forests?" ”

Even the mountains and forests don't matter, for the rabbits who come out of the infrastructure country, this is not a thing, and the infrastructure is fully opened.

"It's a swamp." Dinah said embarrassedly: "It was originally my dowry, it was given to me by the patriarch who saw me as pitiful, and the symbolism was far greater than the practical meaning, even if I gave it away, no one would say anything." ”

I see...... There is also a saying in this world that women are money-losers.

It's too feudal.

However, Roland thought about it in his heart, and asked again: "How big is that swamp?" ”

"That's about 4,000 square kilometers!" Dinah said lightly.

This is not small, almost half of the magic city.

Roland looked at Beta: "What do you mean?" ”

"Got it." Beta said lightly: "As a god-descendant nobleman, I have a professional task, that is, I need to own a territory, the bigger the better. ”

"That's good." Roland stood up: "The matter is settled, I'll go to the Magic Association, find some magic books to read, and when Li Lin and the others arrive, you will inform me." ”

"Then will you stay here at night?" Beta also stood up and asked, "This manor is very large, there is no problem with a few more people, Dinah has already said that she will solve our accommodation problem." ”

Roland waved his hand backwards as he walked: "No, I won't bother you." ”

Beta was still young and didn't understand the meaning of Roland's words,

Instead, Dinah's face was slightly flushed.

Roland left the manor and went to the city walls instead of going to the Magic Society.

Antis was still standing at the gates, urging the city guards to collect the poll tax and maintain law and order.

Roland walked up to him and smiled, "It's boring to look at you." ”

The pretty face like white jade turned around, and Antis's expression was a little impatient: "Why did you run here again?" ”

"I'd like to ask you for a message."

"Look for me if you have something, leave me aside if you have nothing, and still treat me as a friend?"

"Okay." Roland beckoned to him, "I'll invite you to drink." ”

"Insincere!"

Having said that, Antis followed.

The two of them sat in the most luxurious tavern in the royal city, with four beautiful maids standing next to them, serving them both.

Roland ordered some random food and drink, and when the things came up, he drank and asked, "Do you know Dinah Hibiscus?" ”

"Hibiscus? Dinah? Antis frowned: "Isn't it, how long have you abducted the queen, and then hit the idea on the holy warriors?" Is your hobby 'defiling nobility and holiness'? ”

Roland happened to be drinking, and this sentence choked Roland coughing, and some of the sprinkling water sprayed out of his mouth and nose.

choked on his face.

After coughing for a while, Roland relented and said, "I'm not interested in her." ”

"Then what are you asking her for?" The white jade-like slender hand brought the silver wine glass to her pink lips, and after she took a sip, she continued: "Dinah is a holy warrior, in a sense, it is much more troublesome than the queen, don't mess around. ”

"No, it's a friend of mine who knows her, has a good relationship with her, and lives in her manor."

Antis sighed: "I've heard a lot about making friends out of nothing, in fact, this friend is you." ”

"It's really my friend, Beta, I don't know if you've heard of it."

"The wandering aristocrat Beta?"

Antis held his small white chin with his palm, and seemed to be a little interested.

"His name is a wandering nobleman? And such a riotous title? ”

"Pretty famous." Antis continued: "While none of us can find out whose descendants he is, no one suspects that his noble status is fake. There seems to be a divine power that makes his identity public to those who know him. ”

This is probably the characteristic of the profession of 'Divine Noble'.

"Tell me about this Dinah lady."

Antis turned his head to look at him: "It's really not you who want to know?" ”

"I want to know too, but it's not what you think. I just want to help my friend get down so that he doesn't get scammed. ”

Antis shook his head: "Paladins don't lie. “

Roland nodded.

He knew that paladins weren't deceiving, but Dinah wasn't necessarily a paladin.

It just feels like a paladin.

Even if she moved out of Shuke's name, Roland could see that Beta knew her very well, and it was hard to guarantee that she found out a lot of news from Beta's words.

Roland still didn't quite believe her.

After all, Dinah's reward was too exaggerated.

The title of real power nobility, and a huge territory.

Even if it's a swamp, it's a piece of land.

If it's really worthless, the Hibiscus family has already given it away, so why wait until Beta appears.

"The head of the Hibiscus family is the 'Marquis', and like my family, they are all relatives of the royal family." Antis said with a smile, "Dinah became a paladin when she was six years old, and then she often lived in the Bright Sanctuary, and she didn't have much time to come back, so I didn't know her very well. ”

"Then pick what you know."

Antis sighed helplessly: "I always feel like I owe you...... Dinah, as the most outstanding young generation of Hibiscus, was very fond of the head of the family, so even though she was a woman, the head of the house gave her a swamp territory as a dowry for her future marriage. ”

Roland thought for a moment and said, "But female paladins generally don't marry. ”

"It's just that people rarely get married, and it's not that people are not allowed to marry." Antis said: "Dinah has many suitors in the royal city, after all, as long as she can marry her, she will automatically become a viscount, with real power and titles, and also own a territory. It's a swamp, but it's also land, isn't it? ”

It seems that Dinah is not lying.

Roland asked again, "So, has the Althea family been in trouble recently?" ”

"Sort of." Antis thought for a moment and said, "You also know that the battle for the throne is about to start recently, and the Hibiscus Mound is no better than my family, we don't need to stand, but the Hibiscus Flower does." When Dinah came back from the Sanctuary of Light, she was there to stand up for her family. It's just her power and ability...... Honestly, a bit undersighted. ”

"Why? The status of the paladin is no worse than that of a prince and princess. ”

"Just have a name, there are a lot of famous and powerful princes and princesses." Antis shrugged: "When she was six years old, she was the strength she is now, and she is still ...... You say, how many 'forces' can she pull in the Bright Sanctuary? How much of a role can it play when you return to Wangcheng? ”

Since she was a child, Dinah's strength has not grown, which means that the people of the Bright Sanctuary do not regard her as a true holy warrior at all.

Roland was stunned: "You just said that she is the most outstanding young generation of the Althea family. ”

"yes." Antis said as a matter of course: "Because the hibiscus flowers are more wasteful than the other young new generations." If this continues, within twenty years, Mu Hibiscus will have to be removed from the royal city. ”
