Chapter 346: First Meeting with the President of the Women's Federation
When Levi arrived at his destination, he found that there were already more than a dozen people sitting in the room, including men, women, old and young, but although there were all races, more than eighty percent of them were humans, after all, the overall number of human players occupied an absolute advantage.
Seeing Levi walk in, they all saluted, because for most of the people present, Levi was a complete stranger, but being able to enter this room at this time at least showed that they all had similar strength or status, and they would not despise this newcomer, so their eyes only stayed for a moment, and they took it back one after another, so as not to cause any misunderstanding.
At this time, a man with a beautiful mustache who was sitting in the first position on the left hand took the initiative to stand up and stretched out his hand to Levi: "Welcome, President Levi." β
Levi also smiled and stretched out his hand: "Hello, President Tony, it's better to meet than to be famous." β
That's right, the other party is the president of the Women's Federation, but every time he hears the other party's name, Levi can't help but want to laugh, Mr. Tony, how does it sound like a little brother in a hair salon, not the president of a big guild, and he also deliberately took the name of these four words, for fear that others will not misunderstand, right?
After a short polite moment, Mr. Tony motioned for Levi to sit in an empty seat not far from him, Levi naturally would not refuse the other party's kindness, and it seemed that there were not many seats in this room, if he didn't sit here, he really didn't seem to have a place to sit, he didn't want to stand alone when everyone was sitting.
Seeing Levi sit down so calmly, the other dozen or so people present couldn't help but feel a slight commotion for a while, and it seemed that some people were whispering behind their backs, and it seemed that they had some objections to Levi sitting here, but Mr. Tony just smiled and didn't mind it.
Levi also pretended not to see it, anyway, the other party dragged him into the water, even if there was something, he had to let the other party take the blame, so he didn't bother to rush up.
"Hey, handsome guy, your name is Levi, I'm the sinking fish of the recovery club, the sinking fish of the sinking fish and the wild goose." A beautiful female voice came from the right hand side.
Levi followed the sound and looked over, and found that the other party was a very good-looking girl, the only thing that was a little regrettable was that the other party was a rather rare halfling, the height was less than his chest, and he was about one meter three when he died, and based on the characteristics of the halfling, the other party looked like a child who had not grown up, it was simply a tablet computer like Huamesi, and it was not his own dish at all.
However, Levi controlled his eyes and emotions sensibly, so as not to bring any unnecessary trouble, he didn't come here to see the girl, and the other party was still a lot worse than Orfini and Sienna or something.
"Hello, Sunken Fish, I'm Levi of the Watcher."
"Watchmen? I don't think I've heard of it, aren't you guilds around here? Shen Yu blinked wide-eyed and looked at Levi curiously.
However, Levi seems to have gradually sensed the other party's motives, and he had heard the names Shenyu and the Revival Society a few years ago, and it seemed that it was a guild dominated by female players, and he had a relationship with many big guilds.
But Shen Yu's personal reputation is not very good, there are always rumors that she does not rely on strength and friendship, but relies on some relatively low-level means to please the leaders of other guilds, and even the boss of the Women's Federation, Mr. Tony, is one of them, so she and the revival will can mix like this...
Levi didn't know anything about it, so he didn't dare to assert whether this matter was true or false, but now he was completely sure of one thing, the other party was maliciously selling cuteness, and he was also the president of the Fame Guild, how could it really be such a naΓ―ve and curious look?
And the other party may also have an inexplicable relationship with Mr. Tony, Levi decided to keep a certain safe distance from the other party sensibly, and he said tepidly: "Well, it's true that I originally developed in the dwarven Blackstone Castle. β
"Oh, Blackstone Castle, it's not close to here, you must have traveled a long way, did you encounter any special monsters on the way?" Shen Yu made a look of increasing curiosity.
But the more she looked, the more Levi resisted the other party from the heart, so he just coped with it: "It's nothing, it's all smooth along the way." β
But Shen Yu didn't let Levi go, but asked more and more curiously, which made Levi a little embarrassed, he couldn't stand this kind of overly active girl, but unfortunately the other party was really not his own dish.
Thankfully, the awkward exchange didn't last long, as soon as there was a clash of armors, and several characters who seemed to have quite a status entered.
First two knights in heavy armor and full of might, then a young woman in white clothes, Levi immediately felt something familiar in her, like the Hilda Saintess of Oak Village.
However, after noticing the conspicuous fire dragon crest on the armor of the knight at the head, Levi couldn't help laughing, Knight Arthur, I hope you have mentioned me to your father...
After scanning the crowd around, especially the newcomer Levi for half a second, the knight at the head introduced to everyone present: "I called you all here this time to tell you that we have new reinforcements arriving, this is the prophet of the lake god from the Dukedom of Aquita-Lady Margarita, and this is the Viscount Renard from the Duchy of Artois, an expeditionary knight. β
"As for me, there are people here who know me, and there may be people who don't know me, so I'll introduce you again, I'm the Knight of the Holy Grail from Bastogne, the Duke of Bohammond, the Beast Butcher!"
Duke Bohammond's words suddenly made the dozen or so people present a little excited, because this was the first time that the other party officially revealed his identity and strength, because after they arrived here, they had never seen the other party make a move in person, so they only had some guesses about the other party's strength before.
After being in the knight kingdom for so long, they all know the meaning of the Holy Grail Knights, which is the highest combat power of Bretonnia, and the powerful knights who have been blessed by the goddess herself, almost all of them are famous and bigwigs.
And the identity of the lake god prophets is also similar to the Holy Grail Knights, they are the most powerful magic advisors in each duke, taught by the spokesperson of the goddess, the lake god fairy, it can be said that everyone is a master of magic, and the status is higher than that of a saint like Hilda, because each duke is equipped with only one ten lake god prophets, but there may be more than one saint at the same time.
Duke Bohammond glanced at everyone present very majestically, although he didn't say anything, but all the noise disappeared in an instant, he nodded unhappily: "Now most of the forces of the three dukedoms have been gathered here, and the Grand Duke of Alboric of Poldero has also promised to send his Poseidon fleet to support on the other side, this is the strength of the four dukedoms, we will launch a formal attack tomorrow morning, it's time to end the war here." β
As soon as Duke Bohammond finished speaking, Levi received a prompt from the system that he had successfully joined the coalition of the Bretonnian territories, and had received a task to launch a real attack on Musillon with the native army from the four dukedoms tomorrow morning.
Whoever receives this quest will receive an additional 0.3 times more merit than the average player, and may also receive some additional rewards from the four dukedoms if they perform well in battle.
Of course, if you think about it, you know that the difficulty of this task must be very high, at least compared to fighting the Chosen Heroes with Tier 2 and Tier 3 troops in Mu Xilon's camp.
"Also, I see that you are very obsessed with the Heroic Order, so I can guarantee it here," Duke Bohamund paused for a moment, then continued, "In tomorrow's battle, the three people with the highest individual merit will receive a Heroic Order provided by the Bastogne Lord. β
Even though everyone present was the head of each guild, when they heard this, there was inevitably some commotion, but it was not entirely because of joy, they looked at each other for a while, and finally focused their eyes on the boss of the Women's Federation, Teacher Tony, obviously wanting him to be everyone's spokesperson as before, because the actions that Duke Bohammond was about to take happened to conflict with their own plans.
When they first arrived at the battlefield here, everyone was excited, and they were all looking forward to killing them and then taking one or more Hero Orders to increase the strength of their troops rapidly.
But soon they found that their estimates were still too optimistic, because the exchange requirements for the hero order are really not low, even if each of them has a strong army in their hands, but if they want to make up the merits, it is conservatively estimated that they have to fight with all their strength for at least ten days and half a month, because the merits are directly linked to the strength of the enemy, and the quality of the troops of the players in the opposing camp is really not very high, and the merits they can obtain are naturally very limited.
Even if they really maintain a killing scale of this scale every day, not to mention whether it will affect other scattered players, the guilds and players of the opposing camp are not stupid, they will definitely quickly hug up to protect themselves and carry out targeted counterattacks, at that time their losses will definitely be much greater than now.
And attacking the natives is actually far less efficient than the player. Because the troops on Musiron's side in the field are all pure cannon fodder such as skeletons and zombies, there are no higher-level undead troops, but you need to attack the city wall in person to be able to see them, but that is purely a death for ordinary players, and even for everyone present, it is a thankless thing, after all, it is much easier to kill players!
So except for the beginning of the war, some people took advantage of it, and then both sides suddenly slowed down, it seems that because they were afraid of too much loss of troops, they restrained the frequency of attacks, which made ordinary scattered players very relieved, because they were definitely not as fast as the Grand Guild in terms of the speed of accumulating merits, and they were also afraid that the Hero Order would be redeemed, and now the frequency of the Grand Guild's attacks has decreased, which is good news for them.
But everyone present knew that the reason why they seemed to have become like this, and they wisely restrained the frequency of attacks and the speed of killing, was that the president of the Women's Federation, Mr. Tony, personally came forward and reached an agreement with several guild leaders on Musiron's side, and they wanted to maintain the intensity as it is now, so as to better attract new players to both camps, and then transform it into the merit value of the two guilds!
They don't even want this war to end, at least not until they've spawned enough Hero Orders!
But now something has happened here.,Most of the forces of the four dukedoms are concentrated here.,The balance of the war is about to be broken.,Their original plan seems to be about to fail.,Their hero orders haven't been brushed up yet.γγγ
Without the expected cheers, Duke Bohammond was very puzzled, he saw that these Chosen Heroes had been working hard, and they were full of desire for the Hero Order, so he took out the reward out of his own pocket, whether it was His Royal Highness the Lake God Fairy or His Majesty the Lionheart King Lawn, but he would not be reimbursed.
But these Chosen Heroes in front of them are not as excited and excited as they imagined, and they seem to be hiding some careful thoughts that they have not mastered.
Although one of the titles is the Beast Butcher, it sounds like a barbarian, but as a duke, as a knight of the Holy Grail, as a duke of Bohammond who has seen the goddess with his own eyes and has been blessed by the other party, he is actually far from being as reckless and brainless as he seems on the surface...
Because the incident happened too suddenly, Mr. Tony was also a little surprised for a while, originally he only received a notice that something important was announced, but he didn't expect it to be such a big thing, obviously he didn't see any aboriginal troops coming, but this was probably to paralyze Mu Xilon's side.
Noticing the change in the eyes of the famous beast butcher, although he was a little upset that his plan was disrupted, Mr. Tony quickly stood up: "Lord Duke, we have been waiting for this day for a long time, Musillon is originally the territory of our knight kingdom, and it is time to expel those hateful undead and bring them back under our rule!" β
Teacher Tony was the first to speak, and the others also stood up to respond, but most of them obviously did not have good acting skills, at least Duke Bohammond easily saw through this, but he didn't point it out, but just nodded: "Very good, Bretonnia is in need of an elite Chosen Hero like you." There's nothing left for today, so get ready for tomorrow's battle. β
After saying that, Duke Bohammond didn't say hello to anyone again, and walked straight out, and the two leaders of the reinforcements from other dukes, who had just said nothing the whole time, also followed his footsteps and walked outside, looking very convinced of the duke.
However, when he walked in front of Levi, Duke Bohammond suddenly stopped, he glanced at Levi, and said with some doubts: "New face? I remember sitting here before was the guy nicknamed Darkblood, right? β
The names of these Chosen Heroes are very strange, so Duke Bohammond doesn't believe that the other party uses his real name at all, he stubbornly thinks that they use nicknames, if they dare to do this in their own army, there is no doubt that they will suffer their own punishment, but for the sake of their face as the Chosen Hero, Duke Bohammond can only reluctantly ignore it.
Before Levi could reply, Mr. Tony next to him had already hurriedly come over and explained: "Ah, Lord Duke, it is true, but Bloody Wuji and many troops under his command were unfortunately ambushed by Musillon yesterday, and the troops were completely lost, and he himself was injured and left, so I boldly invited a new member to join, his strength is undoubted, and he is also a member of our knight kingdom." β
Levi couldn't help but think to himself, ambushed by the undead? Would Darkblood Mowgli be so careless? You couldn't have been the one who gave the other party a message, right? Everyone knows that the hatred between your two guilds is very great.
Duke Bohammond was noncommittal about Mr. Tony's explanation, although he was also very unhappy with the Bloody Warrior, but the other party also received 3 heroic orders from his quartermaster, and now the opponent's army has been completely wiped out, which is also a loss for himself.
Duke Bohammond turned to look at Levi's: "What's your name and which territory are you from?" β
He just asked casually, because the attraction of the Hero Order was too great, and now his camp had gathered God's Chosen Heroes from countless countries and regions in the Old World, and they even had a variety of races.
Levi smiled slightly, he knew that the opportunity he had been waiting for had finally come: "Hello, Lord Duke, I am not from any dukedom, but from the Kingdom Knight of Oak Village, Levi. β
"Oh?" Duke Bohammond, who was still a little careless, immediately stared, because he knew the two names mentioned by the other party, "Levi of Oak Village? A knight of the kingdom? β
"Yes, Kingdom Knight, and I have something, maybe you will be interested." Levi responded as he took out two mission items from the space bag that had already been prepared, the sharp fangs of the Araknari Giant Spider.
Looking at the black and yellow hideous fangs, Duke Bohammond's face couldn't help but change slightly, as a chalice knight who has killed several dragons with his own hands, the owner of these fangs is not a completely strange creature to him, but looking at the freshness of these fangs, this is impossible? They shouldn't be here, right?
Duke Bohammond said with a somewhat serious face: "So, Levi, where did you pick them up?" β
Although that kind of giant beast was nothing to himself, even an ordinary expeditionary knight was afraid that it would be difficult to escape from under the fangs of the other party, so he didn't think that this kind of giant beast would be the hand of the young knight in front of him.
"No, Lord Duke, it wasn't picked up, we took it from its corpse ourselves, after we killed it."
"You killed it? Do you know what kind of beast its owner is? Duke Bohammond's face grew a little more pale, and he stared at Levi as if to see through his heart.
This made everyone who was a little surprised by the conversation between the two people have to try to keep calm, because it seems that the Duke is not in a bad mood, but there are also gloating guys, especially a middle-aged man who looks a little ruffian, and he can't help but let out a low sneer, although he and Levi had never met ten minutes ago, let alone any grudge, but after seeing the communication between Shen Yu and Levi, he couldn't help but be hostile.
Even the boss of the women's federation next to him, Mr. Tony, began to quietly glance at the side, signaling Levi not to be too tough, in fact, he already slightly regretted bringing Levi directly in, maybe he shouldn't be so eager to show his strength, because if Levi angered the duke, it might even implicate himself, which is not good for some plans.
Because it is rumored that this beast butcher may be the most powerful of the many dukes and grail knights in the Knight Kingdom now!
Despite the doubts, Levi still smiled, "Of course, I know, and I also know that it is a giant beast from the dragon forest at the junction of several imperial realms, such as Midden, Nord, and Rick, but it was still killed by us. If you had met my men, Lord Duke, you would not have such doubts. β
Duke Bohammond paused for two seconds, then he suddenly laughed, and casually handed the fangs to the Prophet of the Lake God from Aquitaine and Viscount Renard from Artois behind him, and then he actually reached out and patted Levi's shoulder: "Baron Tony did a good job this time, you are really a good knight, maybe you can try to embark on the road of expedition, I look forward to your performance on the battlefield tomorrow." β
