Chapter XXXVIII

Hubald of Carcassonne was a middle-aged man, and even in the banquet hall, this middle-aged man wore a long sword at his waist.

Hubald said, "Lu Enqing, the tower of the fairy in the lake is indeed not allowed to enter. ”

Lu En sighed, and he looked around, this not-so-looking castle was the best place to stay in Carcassonne.

Speaking of which, among the many nobles of Bretonnia, the most bitter is the one who sees this Hubald in front of him, at least in the territory of the knights of other kingdoms, there will not be any great temple of the lake fairies, but here, there is the jurisdiction of the lake fairy goddess temple.

"Yes, I don't know how long this election will take place, but I've heard that almost all the bishops in the cathedral of Bretonnia are here," said Luen. ”

"It should be until the end of the world in the Misty Forest," said Hubald. ”

Lu En was slightly stunned, and then he asked, "Misty Forest?" ”

"Yes, Misty Forest." Tenkred snatched the words, and the girl immediately said in front of Lu En: "Legend has it that whoever pulls out the sword of the king in the misty forest and is recognized by the fairy of the lake will become the king of Bretonnia. ”

"A woman dressed as a man?" Lu En frowned slightly.

Tencorred of Quinalis is the most influential prince in the South, and even more so the most powerful prince in the South, and his family coat of arms is a unicorn.

Along the way, Lu En was wondering what kind of person this southern nobleman Tankred was, but he didn't expect that it would be a girl dressed as a man.

Tann Kered didn't say anything to explain, she just took off the steel helmet, leaving a piece of soft and delicate long hair like a waterfall, and the delicate facial features on the bridge of her nose were even more exciting, and her light blue eyes without any emotional fluctuations were looking at Lu En in front of her.

"My father wanted his daughter to be a man, so he named me Tankred and trained her in a series of chivalric training." "In the ancient books, it is recorded that many women have become knights and have done extraordinary deeds. ”

Lu En nodded and said no more, he was not rejecting women to become nobles, he just felt that he had found a woman in the aristocratic collective of the big men's club for a while...... Very curious.

"Go on, everything about the Misty Forest." Lu En snapped his fingers.

In addition to the crackling sound of the pine resin torches burning in the house, Tankred coughed and cleared his throat: "In the mist, the modern king of Bretonni once took out the sword of Cologne in it, and even completed the knightly trial, became the king of Bretonnia, and became the legitimate monarch of Bretonnia. ”

"It is rumored that hidden in the depths of the misty forest, the Holy Grail floating in it is something that the Grand Priest of Lilith, the goddess of the lake, needs to hold." Tankred explained, lost in thought.

"Only when you get the Holy Grail can you become the Great Priest in the Tower."

"This is the rule of the temple for thousands of years!"

Lu En took a deep breath, it seems that this misty forest is going to break through, he has now made a decision in his heart, for the sake of today, there is only one way to go, that is, he must enter the misty forest and find the Holy Grail.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am here this time, firstly, for the election of the Grand Priest of the Fairy in the Lake, and secondly, for the allegiance of the nobles of the South, and to send troops to join the noble coalition."

Lu En said calmly: "For a long time, our army has not made much progress in the north, in fact, it has a lot to do with the lack of troops, on the one hand, our army has to guard against the green skins on the mountain, and on the other hand, it has to resist the imperial army, which is really insufficient. ”

"You have been loyal to Bretonnia for generations, and now that the country is calling you, I need you to send out your warriors."

The many nobles present looked at each other, in fact, this matter had already been decided in their hearts, and the notoriety from the Imperial Army had already spread in the southern border of Bretonnia before Lu En came to the southern border.

The empire wanted to create a kingdom of Bretonnia without nobility, which was absolutely impossible for the nobility of Bretonnia to accept.

Lu En said with some amusement: "If you are eliminated by me, the southern part of Bretonnia is still Bretonnia, and your division is not small, if you are wiped out by the empire, I am afraid that your entire family will disappear in the long river of history." ”

"Is this still a matter to consider, will I send an army to exterminate you?"

For a while, the faces of the four nobles changed in an instant, yes, Lu En's words were not wrong, if they were destroyed by Lu En, their families would still be able to become the nobles of Bretonnia, but if they were exterminated by the empire, they basically had no chance to turn over.

Lu En looked around, and in this small room, there were neatly arranged tables, deer heads, pine resin torches, and four silent nobles.

Lu En sighed slightly, "I'm going to go to the Misty Forest. ”

"In this way, if I can get the approval of the fairies of Lake Bretonnia and bring back the Holy Grail from them, then Catherine will be able to become the High Priest."

"The Misty Forest is a very dangerous place. ”

Lu En said, "I know. ”

"There are knights who enter the Misty Forest all year round, but they end up completely missing in the Misty Forest and eventually disappearing into the Misty Forest, with only a small number of knights drinking the Holy Grail from it and coming out. ”

"Lu Enqing, you are already a Knight of the Holy Grail, there is no need for you to take risks."

Lu En said, "I have no choice, since you are not going to be loyal to me at the moment, then my main goal of coming to the South, that is, Catherine becoming the Grand Priest of the Nymphs of the Lake, must be completed. ”

There was silence in the room, except for the crackling sound of the pine resin torches.

Lu En was about to leave the house in the next second, but then he heard a burst of words from Tankored.

"Lu Enqing, we are willing to pledge allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Estria." Tenkred shouted.

The three nobles around her also responded to Lu En in the same way, and there was no other emotion on their faces, only loyalty.

Lu En nodded, "I am satisfied with your allegiance, but for now I still have to go to the Misty Forest, because I must get the Holy Grail to make Catherine the Grand Priest of the Nymphs of the Lake." ”

Speaking of this, Lu En laughed at himself, "Greed is not a good quality, but I am naturally hungry for victory. ”
