137 The banner of the Covenant, and the canonization of the black tulips

What the Marquis of Sayer has done for a long time is meaningful.

Without the blood of the Balzac family, there is no covenant. If the Covenant does not exist, then there is no Knights of the Covenant. It's something obvious.

The blood of the Balzac family has long since been drained, and it is difficult to recognize even the slightest possible collateral lineage.

Not to mention that the imprint of this family is still in its own hands!

But how dare he? How can these people? Openly holding the Covenant battle flag of unknown origin and swaggering through the market?!

When he was born, the Knights of the Covenant had long since become the dust of history, and naturally it was impossible to see the Covenant battle flag, and he didn't understand what that battle flag represented, he thought it was just an ordinary battle flag, so he still had the idea of reversing the situation, as long as the identity of Viscount Elrios was not recognized, then all this was just a farce.

However, if it was his grandfather who was here, I am afraid that the Knights of Saya would be removed as soon as possible, and plans would be made later.

The Marquis of Saya, with a heart in his mind, rode out on his horse, and alone blocked the way of the team. Of course, his guard group followed, but what was surprising was that several people stopped in place, obviously hesitating.

Discovering the abnormal movement here, the fierce hand-to-hand combat gradually stopped, and one by one looked at the battle flag that was gradually becoming clearer in disbelief.

"Errios boy! How daring! Marquis Sayah rebuked angrily, "How dare you forge the Covenant Battle Flag!" All the families in the South won't let you go! has caused a dispute with the surrounding peoples, and I will definitely ask His Majesty the King to revoke your title!" ”

Viscount Elrios did not change his face because of his words, but walked forward without any confusion. He came to the Marquis of Sayer, raised his head and stared at the Marquis of Sayer's eyes, and there was no longer the frivolity and cowardice of the past.

"The Pact has been raised once again, and all the families and races of the wasteland will once again gather under the banner and shed their blood to reclaim their homeland. This battle flag held up in flesh and blood, no one can forge it, and no one can deny it! “

The Marquis of Sayer scoffed at his words, and his long-standing contempt for Viscount Elrios affected his judgment.

"The covenant is sworn by the blood of the Balzac family, and you say that you are a descendant of the Balzac family, but that is only a one-sided statement, without any evidence! The Balzac family has drained the last trace of blood in order to resist the abyss, and it is not something that a family like you can cling to at will! I warn you, if you don't stop, I won't let you go lightly for insulting the Balzac family! With a thud, Marquis Saya drew his sword and pointed at Viscount Elrios's head.

But Viscount Elrios did not waver in the slightest, and he gently removed the sword from his waist and placed it horizontally in front of him.

When the Marquis of Saya saw him take his sword, he couldn't help but smile contemptuously: "What? Are you going to resist by force? ”

Viscount Elrios shook his head slightly: "Your Excellency Marquis, whether the covenant exists or not, you can feel for yourself!" ”

Then he commanded loudly: "Mr. Bartol, please lower the battle flag!" ”

"Roar!" The giant behind him roared, laid the battle flag held high, and hung it beside Viscount Elrios.

Viscount Erios reached out and grasped the hilt of his sword, gently pulling it out—

The sword body suddenly exuded an indescribable momentum! In the eyes of everyone, the sword body that was drawn out was as dazzling as the sun. Some of the people present were filled with the urge to bow down, it was a blood oath that existed in distant bloodlines, and others, although they did not feel this way, also knew that this long sword had an extraordinary origin.

Viscount Elrios slashed the long sword from the palm of his hand, and the long sword was immediately stained with his blood, and inexplicable fluctuations filled the space. He hung his torn hand over the battle flag, and then a drop of blood fell, falling on the battle flag—

"Boom!" Inexplicable fluctuations resounded in the hearts of the descendants of the family that had made the covenant.

That drop of blood did not stain the battle flag with blood, but disappeared without a trace.

And then another drop—

"Knock knock!"

One more drop –

"Boom!"

Drop after drop of blood fell on the battle flag, countless people felt the call from the covenant, blood boiled in their chests, war drums sounded in their ears, and countless people once again felt the oath of their ancestors.

"Blood can be shed, and the battle will not stop!"

"Flesh and blood swear, the alliance of the seven clans!"

"Where the battle flag goes, punish the evil and eliminate the evil!"

"The covenant is here, and it will never be forgotten!"

Time flies, and everyone seems to have returned to the moment when hundreds of families and clans of the seven major races made a covenant more than a hundred years ago, swore to expel the abyss and restore their homeland.

No one did not believe that the Covenant still existed, and the descendants of these families knelt down on one knee and expressed their submission to the Sword of the Covenant and the Banner of the Covenant, whether they were in the National Knights, or the Knights of Sayer, even in the Guards of the Marquis of Sayer. The companions around him who had not been affected by the covenant could only look at each other and did not dare to make a sound.

"Your Excellency, have you heard the call of the Covenant?" Viscount Elrios asked softly.

Of course Marquis Saya didn't, but when he understood what was going on, he was already terrified. The Saya family was also one of the covenant families back then, but they had long been privately isolated from the influence of the covenant on the family, which was something that could never be made public!

He bowed reluctantly, as if to express his submission to the covenant, but instead of kneeling like the others, he just pulled the reins with a blushing face and ran wildly in the direction he came. He knew that the re-rise of the Balzac family was unstoppable, there was an alliance, and the boy of the Errios family, it should be said that the Balzac family, was already invincible.

"Retreat!" "Back to camp!" The commanders of the Order of Saya began to give orders to evacuate, and most of the knights withdrew, but some did not leave, but came to the Covenant banner to show their submission.

Looking at the countless knights who had gathered over, Viscount Elrios came back from his trance. He couldn't help but close his eyes and exhale the turbid breath in his chest, then opened them again.

He has won this war!

Victory!

Even some of the noble knights who had followed the Marquis of Saya betrayed their allegiance and joined the Covenant banner. The reason is very simple, the Sayah family is also a covenant family, but they did not immediately pledge allegiance to the covenant, in the eyes of some noble knights with fierce personalities, this is already an act of treachery, so leaving the Saya Knights is also a proper behavior.

Viscount Elrios put away the sword of the Covenant and, with the allegiance of countless knights, continued to move slowly, and soon came to the general of Fort Cologne.

General Cologne had already dismounted at this time, and looked at Viscount Elrios who came over with a smile.

The Knights of the Covenant, as a knight of allegiance to the king, are also legally equal to the Knights of Gavia - although in practice, the Knights of the Covenant have a lot of superiors, but now is not the time to care about this.

In short, the general of Cologne could not sit on his war horse and talk to the prospective head of the Knights of the Covenant with great arrogance.

"Congratulations, Your Excellency the Viscount—no, it should be Your Excellency the Count of Balzac!" General Cologne said.

"Thank you for your continued help, Your Excellency." Viscount Elrios expressed his gratitude sincerely.

"Haha! We'll talk about it later, so let's go and get your family title back first! General Cologne laughed, and then whispered to Viscount Elrios, "These warriors are very good, and they are loyal to their duty, and they deserve more rewards. ”

Of course, General Cologne knew about the deal between the Warfighter Brigade and Viscount Elrios - the canonization was in his office!

Seeing Julien's performance, he felt that this canonization could shed the color of the trade and truly integrate these warriors into the feudal system of Cologneburg.

Viscount Elrios understood what he meant. These warriors did a good job of completing the commission, and also bought themselves enough time to get in and protect the family imprint, and they deserved to be wooed by a more formal canonization than the transactional nature of paper canonization.

He nodded, and then made his way to the Warrior's convoy.

Led by Julien, all the warriors frightened the carriage and stood aside, waiting for the arrival of Viscount Elrios.

"Thank you for everything." Viscount Elrios spoke first, thanking Julien.

"Don't dare, just be loyal to your duty." Julien bowed slightly, holding the box with the cornflower mark in both hands and offering it.

Viscount Elrios reached out and took it, opened it, and the quaint sigil lay quietly in the box, but it had lost its luster.

All ancient families have a mark of this kind, which casts the magic of bloodline, and when the heir of the current generation is lost, the mark becomes inactive, and the less bloodline there is, the darker the mark will be, and when all the direct bloodlines are lost, it will become what it is now. However, even if there is only a trace of blood, it can be reawakened.

Viscount Elrios held the sigil in his hand with a slight nervousness, and then unleashed the bloodline magic - no doubt, as the last bloodline of the Balzac family, he was recognized by the sigil and regained his enchanting brilliance.

"Congratulations, Lord Count!" Julien bowed.

And the knights of the family who followed Viscount Elrios, no, it should have been Count Balzac, also knelt down on one knee to pay their respects to their lord.

The young Count Balzac smiled and put the mark away, and then asked what he had thought about for a long time.

"Mr. Julien, Warrior, are you and your brigade willing to serve me?"

When Julien heard this, he was a little stunned for a moment, but he immediately understood. The new earl in front of him, the so-called head of the Knights of the Covenant, wants to give him an official canonization!

This may be the first opportunity in the world to be officially canonized, how could Julien let it go? Of course, for some players, bowing to the aborigines may seem detrimental to the dignity of modern people, but how could Julien be able to grow the Black Tulip Brigade to the point where it is now, and how could he belittle a native—especially a great aboriginal nobleman?

He hurriedly took off his hat and knelt down on one knee, and said, "I do, my lord!" ”

Behind him, the members of the group who received the text message also knelt on one knee in the same way, even Minter and Amelia, who had always jumped away.

The young Count Balzac drew the sword of the covenant, placed it on Julien's shoulder, and said: "Julien, are you willing to swear before the holy and the world to protect the weak, women and children, against the abyss and the evil of depravity, to obey the will of the Balzac family, His Majesty the Grand Master and His Majesty the King, and to march forward bravely and bravely with your sword, no matter how rough and tumble the road ahead, whether noble or humble?" ”

"Yes, I swear, sir."

The young Count Balzac swapped the sword of the Covenant on his shoulders and continued: "With the power of the Balzac family, I canonize you as a subordinate knight and a knight of the family, and grant you the right to form the Knights of the Black Tulip, and pledge your allegiance to the Balzac family. ”

He stabbed the sword of the Covenant through the back of Julien's neck again before putting it away.

"Arise, Sir Julien, Knight of the Black Tulip, and welcome to the Balzac family."

Today, Julien has finally obtained the long-desired knighthood and power, and his long-cherished efforts have finally paid off.

After this epic event was put on the Internet by players, the Black Tulip Brigade, as one of the protagonists, was also on the cusp, and at the same time began to develop rapidly. However, the shock of the aftermath is far from over, and the impact is far-reaching.
