Chapter 117: On Meritorious Deeds

Although the farce directed and acted by Sitila ended hastily, it was not serious, but the castle garden was half the size of a football field, and the incident happened at the door, so it was too far away to attract the attention of the city lord and the brave men.

Seeing that everyone had almost arrived, and after checking the list of banquets with the butler, the lord of the city skillfully said two words of thanks and the like, and then clapped his hands and announced the beginning of the dinner.

I have to say that this dinner is absolutely bloody, the delicious food is no less than the feast of the Silver Restaurant, the blood-red wine is bright in color and mellow in smell, in addition to eating and drinking, the city lord also invited the top song troupe and dance troupe of Peacock City to sing and dance for the banquet guests, no matter which one is a lot of investment.

However, at this moment, it has become Su Xiao's most embarrassing moment, he never dreamed that whether it is Alexander or Bernard Marshall, they are all important people sitting on the chairman, in other words, Su Xiao and Chen Yaxuan were also forcibly pulled to the city lord's table by them to eat, and when they looked up, they could see the city lord's whole family, Su Xiao's mood can be imagined. As for Alexander and Bernard competing to bring Su Xiao into the seat before, they were just arguing over who Su Xiao was sitting next to.

There are few round tables in this world, and the banquet uses a long square table that is 10 meters long and 1 meter wide, and 30 people can easily sit on both sides of the table. But this seemingly ordinary scene is not the same in the eyes of those twenty-one brave men. In their opinion, they tried their best to protect the city lord during the beast tide, and there was no merit and hard work, so it was okay not to let them become the chairman, why should they let Su Xiao, who left the castle on the first day of crossing, be the chairman? They didn't know that the entire Peacock City was fighting bloody battles during the beast tide, they just disdainfully thought that Su Xiao had picked up a big bargain outside the castle, so of course they were unbalanced, saying that the taste in their hearts was not light, looking at their eyes, most of their faces were capitalized with envy, jealousy and hatred!

"Damn, we were guarding our homes tightly, and he was riding on the head?" A boy took a sip of alcohol angrily and said to Kang Yongyuan beside him: "Brother Kang, we must find a way to cure that kid!" ā€

Who is Kang Yongyuan? Kang Yongyuan is the backbone of the brave men in the castle, the top 500 masters in the national costume of "Divine Martyrdom", and the brave man from another world who is called a genius by Alexander!

Like Kang Yongzhe, who wants to be windy and rainy in the castle, how can he allow Su Xiao to steal his limelight, and look at Su Xiao with bad intentions while eating vegetables, especially Chen Yaxuan beside Su Xiao fiercely, eager to peel off her clothes with his eyes. When he thought that Su Xiao not only robbed him of his honor, but also sat on a beauty that was thousands of times more elegant than those vulgar fans in the castle, he was so angry that he couldn't wait to flip the table and share it with Su Xiao on the spot!

Fortunately, Kang Yongyuan still understood the proportions, and stubbornly suppressed his anger, he knew that the trouble at this time was not to find Su Xiao's bad luck, but to sweep the face of the city lord, so he had to grit his teeth and rub the knife and fork on the plate with a creaky sound, and whispered: "It's okay, let him slap first, and when the banquet is over, I will let him lose his reputation!" ā€

Who in Peacock City doesn't know that the city lord's biggest hobby is to scavenge the people's fat and ointment, and to participate in such a luxurious dinner, those mercenaries are also extremely angry while enjoying it. But as Kang Yongyuan thought, who would dare to provoke the city lord? From afar, people have the position of earl, and they also have a little royal blood; Speaking closely, he is the lord of a city, and he is the largest in Peacock City. Even Sytila, who was still rude and domineering just now, had to pretend to be a good girl at the dinner table, how could those mercenaries who were crawling at the bottom of society dare to make trouble?

They didn't dare to make trouble, Su Xiao was too lazy to make trouble. Watching Langdon, Alexander and the others toast to the city lord, he was embarrassed enough, he could not care about the face of the city lord, but Langdon, Alexander and the others were friends worthy of deep friendship, Su Xiao didn't want to ruin their interest in this banquet with a warm atmosphere. But thanks to the scene that Sitila made just now, as long as Su Xiao had a strained face, no one dared to force him to drink.

The dinner lasted about two hours, and when the last performance of the troupe was finished, a large number of servants began to tidy up the garden, serving dishes and chairs, and picking up garbage, while the army followed the lord into the castle and stood in the main hall waiting for the reward.

"Snowflake Mercenary Regiment, Frost Moon Mercenary Regiment, Blade Mercenary Regiment, please take a step forward from the leaders of these three mercenary regiments." The city lord sat on his exclusive high platform, holding the manuscript that had been prepared long ago, and read it with a solemn face, "The mercenary group led by the three of you is not afraid in the face of the beast tide, almost the entire group participated in the battle to defend Peacock City, and many members were injured and died in the beast tide. Hereby, I announce that the Snowflake Mercenary Regiment, the Frost Moon Mercenary Regiment, and the Blade Mercenary Regiment have made meritorious contributions to defending the city, and all members of the Snowflake Mercenary Regiment have made a third-class meritorious service, and each of them will receive a reward of 10 gold coins, as well as a bronze badge! In addition, the families of the members who unfortunately died will receive a consolation fund of 15 gold coins for all you have done for Peacock Villas! ā€

"Thank you for the city lord's reward!" De Mole and the other two mercenary captains hurriedly bowed their heads and saluted, and then retreated lightly to the side to receive the reward.

"The Knights in the City, the Emerald Phoenix Mercenary Regiment, and the Light God Sect in Peacock City are separated, please ask the representatives of these three groups, as well as the members of the Lone Warrior Group, to step forward."

"Who is the Lone Warrior Group?" Su Xiao asked Alexander.

Alexander couldn't cry or laugh, and ordered the five people of Su Xiao's team one by one, and said, "You five, go!" ā€

Seeing Alexander, Simon Malka, Langdon and Su Xiao standing under the stage, the city lord cleared his throat and said: "The Knights of the City, the Emerald Phoenix Mercenary Regiment, the Peacock City Branch of the Bright God Sect, and the Lone Brave Group, your group is very important in this battle to protect Peacock City, and it is the mainstay of resisting the beast tide, it is precisely because of your hard work on the front line that you can lead the defenders to a great victory!" I hereby announce that all members of the three major groups who participated in the Beast Tide and the five members of the Lone Warrior Group will be awarded a second-class merit once, and each of them will receive a reward of 30 gold coins, as well as a silver badge! I hope you will continue to work hard, and Peacock Villas will always remember your contributions! ā€

Su Xiao is not as big as Langdon and their family, and there are only five people in his lone brave team, and Su Geman and Kekeli are still the preparation of the Jade Phoenix, so the reward he received is only three people, and he doesn't need to go home to distribute it, and after receiving the gold coins and badges from the castle steward, Su Xiao handed them over to Chen Yaxuan and Alice.

Silver badge, intermediate merit, no level requirement, strength +20, intelligence +20, stamina +20, spirit +20, sensitivity +20.

"This thing is equipment?" The first time Su Xiao saw the badge equipment, he couldn't wait to put this round silver badge carved with the peacock opening screen pattern on his chest as soon as he got it, and his attributes really improved, and it didn't conflict with the three mainstream equipment of weapons, armor, and jewelry, which surprised him!

"The Guardian Knights and the Guardian Warriors have stepped forward."

"What the hell is the Guardian Knights?" Su Xiao asked Alexander.

"There are two knights in Peacock City, and my Knights in the city are responsible for patrolling the city, guarding the city gates, and going out of the city to meet the enemy when necessary. The Guardian Knights are small in number and are only responsible for keeping the castle safe. As he spoke, Alexander deliberately lowered his voice, leaned into Su Xiao's ear, and whispered, "Kandal, the leader of the Guardian Knights, is Simon's sworn enemy. ā€

"Oh?" Hearing this, Su Xiao inevitably glanced at the knight named Kandal twice, and happened to see that those real-world classmates were also looking at him, and most of them's eyes were full of hostility and pride.

The hostility is understandable, after all, Su Xiao stole their limelight, but where does the pride come from? In fact, it was very simple, they were proud precisely because they accepted the reward one step later than Su Xiao. The first batch of people will be awarded third-class merit, and the second group of people will be awarded second-class merit, so aren't they, the third group of people who receive rewards, the first meritorious? Just now, I was envious, jealous and hated because Su Xiao was sitting in the chairman to eat, but now I have killed Su Xiao in seconds, not to mention how happy Kang Yongyuan and his dogs are.

After everyone in the audience was in place, the city lord said unhurriedly: "The Guardian Knights and the twenty-one brave men, although you did not participate in the battle against the beast tide, you defended this castle with your body and spirit, and you have protected the heart of Peacock City, which is also indispensable." I hereby grant all members of the Guardian Knights and twenty-one Otherworldly Heroes a second-class merit, each of which will receive 30 gold coins and a silver badge......"

"Second-class merit?" Hearing that he was actually a second-class merit, Kang Yongyuan's pride a second ago instantly turned into embarrassment, and he asked on the spot in annoyance: "Lao Tzu did his best to protect your safety, shouldn't this TM be a first-class merit?" ā€

"Hugh is rude!" Hearing Kang Yongyuan's questioning, the blue-robed mage with crane hair and childish face behind the city lord immediately stood up, his eyes were like a sharp sword, his voice was like a bell, and in just four words, Kang Yongyuan, who was forced to shut up obediently under the blessing of his powerful aura.

Kang Yongyuan is called an injustice, he had no intention of angering the city lord, otherwise he would not have endured it during the dinner, it was really this second-class merit that caused him too much psychological gap, which made him unscrupulous. In fact, Kang Yongyuan regretted it as soon as the words came out, even if no one asked him to shut up, he wouldn't say a word more, but he didn't expect that a question would cause the dissatisfaction of the blue-robed mage, it looked like Kang Yongyuan was scolded by the old man and shut his mouth, and this face was lost.

What's more serious is that Kang Yongyuan's words also caused dissatisfaction among the knights and mercenaries behind him. They fought bloodily outside and suffered countless casualties before they were replaced with a second-class merit and a third-class merit, these guys who cowered in the castle gate and did not go out of the second door could get an honor that was not inferior to them without doing anything, but they didn't expect Kang Yongyuan to shamelessly ask for a first-class merit, which made those soldiers who fought to the death against the crazy clown embarrassed?

What does it mean to have a mountain of public opinion? Listening to the whispers behind him, not to mention Kang Yongyuan, even the twenty people standing with him were gloomy. At this time, Kang Yongyuan was already angry, he didn't blame the blue-robed mage for not giving face, and he didn't blame the knight mercenary for whispering abuse, but blamed everything on Su Xiao's head, gritting his teeth and thinking: "I will definitely double these humiliations, you wait for me!" ā€
