140 Preparation and Waves for a Long Journey
Agni suddenly receives a message from the elusive Miss Falling Rain.
"Come to me in two days with a marching map. The address is...... I'll leave the supplies for the long journey to you."
"......" Agni was a little speechless, he hurriedly looked at the team interface of the Sky Brigade, only to see that the other party's status changed from "loaded" to "logged out".
This eldest lady, who has not seen anyone for so many days, came up and sent a message and left, which is really neat.
But after a few days of getting along, Agni got used to it, and she didn't seem to know what politeness was. It's all small money anyway.
Julien and the others were very busy, in other words, the harvest this time was also unexpectedly big.
Not to mention the young Count Balzac, Julien is now a knight of the black tulip under the count, and he also needs to be involved in the handover of family affairs and various documents. The most important is of course the formation of the Knights of the Covenant.
The Knights of the Covenant are more complicated than expected, not only with the entanglements between hundreds of families in the south, but also the disputes of the surrounding races, and it is not so easy to reunite everyone after a hundred years.
Of course, the most important thing for Julien and the Black Tulip Brigade is the formation of the Black Tulip Knights and the choice of territory.
In nature, the Black Tulip Knights belong to the vassal knighthood, that is, the knights formed by the vassal nobles to serve the great nobles. Although everyone is called a knight order, not to mention that compared to the National Knights and the Covenant Knights, even the family knights formed by some small families have a higher status than the Black Tulip Knights.
The National Order, or the Knights of Gavia, is the foundation of the Grand Master and the King, and no knight can crush it except the legendary Knights of the Holy Dolot.
The Knights of the Covenant is another form, the knight system is already a very mature way of ruling in the Dollot region, and the strength of the human race has led to the formation of knights by other races when cooperating with humans militarily. Under the divine witness, the heads of the nations or clans of the alliance made a pact of allegiance to fight for the same goal.
Then there was the order of knights formed by the nobles who were loyal to the king, and the knights were loyal to the king as well as the commander. The Knights of Saya are one of them.
All of these knights are the foundation of a nation's rule, and their names belong to the king's ranks.
The various other knightly orders below this are much more complex, with various types. However, in general, there are two main types.
One is the family knights, and those who are loyal to only one family are the family knights, and the original knights of the Elrios family are the family knights, but now they are naturally different. Family Knights generally did not allow more than a hundred people - this means that warriors, servants, and periphery personnel are not counted.
There is also a vassal knight order such as the Black Tulip Knights, which is formed by vassal nobles with the permission of the great nobles, and the number is not allowed to exceed twenty.
Naturally, all the fighters of the Black Tulip Brigade could not be transferred to the Knights, so they could only give priority to the captains and then select a few strong members from the Mongoose team. When Julien returned, he also invited Agni to join, but he didn't have this idea, after all, he was about to leave, and it was pointless to occupy such a position.
After having the status of a knight, it was not long before I felt the difference. In the past, warlords were absolutely not allowed to enter the aristocratic district unless they were invited, but now the warlords who join the knights are also considered a kind of low-level nobles in the eyes of the aborigines, and many resources that they could not enjoy can now be used, and even the warhorses can be purchased from the military district at a much cheaper price, which makes the captains of the Black Tulip Brigade ecstatic.
You know, before this, not to mention war horses, even military horses are difficult to buy. In the past, as warriors, to the aborigines, they were just warriors summoned by the divine, and their status was a little higher than that of ordinary civilians, far less than that of the nobles. And now they have truly entered the feudal aristocracy of the aborigines.
The marching map had been handed over to Agni, along with a large amount of belongings and a nameplate given by the Count of Balzac.
The young Count Balzac was still very impressed by the fire, after all, his strength was rare in Cologneburg, and it was very difficult to recruit such talents in the Elrios family back then. After hearing that Agni was not prepared to stay in Cologne to play for him, he was still saddened. However, he still gave him the magic crystal of the Flame 2000 spectrum and a nameplate that could represent the friendship of the Count of Balzac, although this nameplate could not bring any substantial benefits, but at least it would allow the traveler not to be treated as a pure commoner when traveling far away, and even get some supplies from the nobles.
Agni naturally smiled.
I haven't seen Julien and Count Balzac since then, they have too many important things to do.
With the help of Minter and Amelia, Agni began to procure supplies.
Agni first bought a large number of marching bags and ingredient packs, which were cheap and had a single function, but it was indeed too convenient for long-distance travel. Agni's folded bag was full of combat supplies, such as weapons, potions, and some personal belongings, and he didn't want to cram any other mess into it.
Although a lot of things can theoretically be put in a package, the weight will not be reduced, and no one can stand the hundreds of kilograms hanging on the waist bag. Therefore, it is still necessary to put a special marching bag for logistics materials, and it cannot be too heavy in each package.
In addition to this, Julien also purchased three military horses from the National Order through the connections of the Count of Balzac, which were specially used to carry these marching bags. No matter how powerful the electric light unicorn is, it can't even let it carry the weight.
Holy water and other potions were also purchased, because of the relationship between the Angel Heart, the relationship between Agni and the church is still good, so the price of the potion can be discounted, which saves a lot of gold for Agni. However, herbs and dry food were not bought in Cologneburg, and the epidemic in Cologneburg has become more and more severe in the past few days, causing the price of herbs and food to soar, and at Minter's suggestion, he decided to go back to Eloncio to buy them.
The fire was also worried about the epidemic in Cologneburg. Although he didn't stay in Cologne for a long time, he also got to know a lot of aborigines, and he was worried about their health. However, for the adults in the upper city, the epidemic in the lower city is not too important, as long as you donate some money to the church and leave it to them to solve. The attitude of the fighters is the same, after all, the fighters will not be infected with diseases, even if they kill back and forth in the abyss black hole, they will not be infected, let alone these ordinary epidemics.
Agni also donated some money to the church, and then went to Elonshio through the portal.
Elonshio, the City of Players.
No one seems to have changed here, no one cares about the epidemic in Fort Collogne, or the political struggle between the Marquis de Sayer and the Count of Balzac.
This is the city of players, and the protagonists are always the Chosen ones.
They are more concerned about how Julien of the Black Tulip Brigade obtained the title and territory, these days, the Black Tulip Brigade's station in Eloncio has long been squeezed out by players from all walks of life, not only the brigades in the western region of France, but even the top brigades in the whole of Europe have sent envoys to be born in Eloncio by opening a trumpet, hoping to get in touch with Julian.
After all, this is the first player to earn a title and a realm! Not comparable to those who buy a minor title in a commercial city or take a position in a weakly armed area, which means that the Black Tulip Brigade can join the indigenous people for greater benefits and resources.
If they could, they would prefer to buy everything in Julien's hands through real-life money, including titles, realms, and knighthoods.
