The day passed peacefully.

Early the next morning, there will be the canonization ceremony of Rollin, and the envoys sent by the nobles from all over the country have arrived, and all kinds of carriages have been parked in the square.

Rollin was arrested by the castle's hostess, and began to temporarily correct his manners and change his attire.

His original elven battle armor did not conform to etiquette, so he took it off and replaced it with the gorgeous ceremonial battle armor of the principality, with a gold and red ribbon on the outside, the shield was not very beautiful, and when he took it off, the sword was too heavy, and the evil spirit was too great, so he took it off and replaced it with a beautiful aristocratic ceremonial sword.

Anyway, as soon as it was sorted out, Luo Lin was dizzy and at the mercy of these fastidious etiquette officials.

Finally, at nine o'clock in the morning, someone came over and shouted: "The guests have arrived, and the ceremony has begun!" “

An attendant led Luo Lin to the door, and when he arrived at the square, a war horse with a white coat and a ribbon was pulled over, which was Luo Lin's mount.

After getting on the horse, the attendant led the horse and walked to the Hall of Heroes in front of the castle, which was used to canonize nobles throughout the ages.

When you get to the ground, you dismount and enter the main hall through the back door. From here, you can see the situation in the palace, and at a quick glance, Luo Lin saw that the previously empty Heroes' Hall was already crowded with people, all of whom were nobles and famous people from all over the world who came to watch the ceremony, and the number ∈was at least thousands.

He was led to the entrance of the Hall of Heroes.

"Lord Rollin has arrived!" Some ceremonial officials shouted, because he had not yet been officially canonized, so his title was still Lord.

Then Rollin walked slowly from the entrance of the Hall of Heroes, along the newly laid red carpet on the ground, under the gaze of thousands of richly dressed nobles, knights, and church personnel, to the upwind of the Grand Duke Lehman.

Archduke Lehman is also dressed up today. He wears a crown of golden gemstones on his head. On his body is a gorgeous grand robe. He holds a silver crown in his hand. Beside him, a messenger carried a tray with several volumes of papers.

The first person on the left side of Grand Duke Lehman is a white-haired old man, this old man is dressed plainly, and his posture is still a little embarrassed, but no one dares to despise it, it is the Red Moon Sword Saint Palason, who has been famous for two hundred years.

On Palathan's side were a few of his disciples, and then there were the great nobles and knights of the Duchy. To the right of the Grand Duke are the church's watchers. There is a golden-robed Archbishop of the Holy Light, a silver-edged cardinal in a white robe, a knight chief of the Radiant Knights, and anyway, the heads and faces of the church are here.

This formation is unprecedentedly grand, the canonization ceremony of a viscount needs to be so grand, right?

Puzzled, Rollin stepped forward step by step, and when he reached the Archduke Lehman, he knelt on one knee.

Archduke Lehman saw an unopened sword resting on Rollin's shoulder. The canonization ceremony began.

The ceremony was simple, with a formal exchange of answers. After taking the oath of duties and rights of the lord and the vassal, the final canonization begins.

Grand Duke Lehman picked up a scroll of paperwork, opened it, and began to read: "In the year 1160 of the sacred calendar, I, the master of the Duchy of Lehman, Vincent. Lehman canonized Rolling. Swart is a hereditary earl, and Maple Leaf County and Levine County in the northern Red Maple Province are its territories......"

Reading this, the whole hall was already in chaos, just as Grand Duke Lehman thought, all kinds of noise suddenly broke out.

"What?! Earl? Why Earl? ”

"What merit does he have!"

"It's nonsense!" Someone hid in the crowd and began to speak unkindly.

"In the four hundred years of the principality, nothing like this has ever happened. Before the canonization, the Grand Duke must have drunk too much wine. "Someone ridiculed.

Before the promotion of the baron, then no one has an opinion, this Rollin has such force, as a baron is a matter of course, in fact, the great knights of the principality are all barons.

After that, the Grand Duke was changed to a viscount, although everyone was a little dissatisfied, but they all recognized it, who called this person to defeat the orc martial saint, this force is indeed very strong, and he is young, such a genius, of course, he should be treated a little more.

But now, the Grand Duke of Lehman didn't even say anything, he directly changed the title to an earl, and also sent out two counties, although this territory belongs to the Lehman family, the Grand Duke can send whoever he likes, but a country must have a law, how can it be so messy?

This is the Earl! Sitting on two counties, with a population of nearly one million, and a figure like a feudal official, this Luo Lin has only been a small lord, can he hold it?

Could it be that the Grand Duke is brain-dead, and he is in a hurry to give away the territory?

Since you want to give it away, why send a lord who has just taken refuge? Wouldn't it be better to send us old ministers?

Dissatisfaction, questioning, and even angry scolding, all kinds of thoughts swirled in the minds of these nobles, and if it weren't for the face of the Grand Duke, maybe they would have yelled directly.

Rollin was also surprised, didn't he say a good viscount? Why did he raise him to another level in just two days, is this grand duke a little too generous?

Of course, as a profiteer, of course he will not be silent at this time. The earl is the earl, he has a big appetite, he can eat, what if others are not convinced, as long as this territory is in his hands, one year will be stable, two years is enough for him to build the same as the iron bucket, at that time, he himself is a legendary powerhouse, who are you afraid of?

The noise in the hall was getting louder and louder, and it was about to get out of control, and the Holy Light Archbishop coughed and raised his hand to show that he had something to say.

Archbishop of the Holy Light still had to give face, so the noise was much lower, but there was still a lot of buzzing and light noise.

The archbishop said: "Half a month ago, in the southern White Deer Town, Count Rollin defeated nearly four thousand undead, and at the same time bought a lot of time for many towns to retreat. His actions saved millions of civilians. This is a great feat, so I think this canonization is justified. ”

"Then the southerners, what does it matter to our principality?" Some people are not convinced.

"Rollin is also a southerner, and he has done a good job in Vendôme, but this is the principality. If you want to make him an earl, go to the front line in the west and kill 10,000 Aoraki dogs! ”

With the Holy Light Archbishop coming forward, Archduke Lehman felt less stressed, he pressed his hand, and said: "Yesterday, Count Rollin defeated three assassins from the Aoraki Kingdom outside the city and rescued my daughter Angela from the Iron Hand Brotherhood. This is my reward for him. ”

The Iron Hand Brotherhood of the Kingdom of Aoraki? All right. As soon as this incident came out. Opposition immediately diminished dramatically. As a nobleman of the Principality of Lehman, who doesn't know the strength of the Iron Hand Brotherhood, their principality has been killed by these assassins two ** divisions.

Although the opposition has decreased, there are still some people who are not convinced, this reward is too rich, which makes people envious and jealous.

"Maybe it's just a few little assassins, and he tried his luck." Someone muttered.

"Who knows. Maybe not at all. ”

"That's it!" A voice suddenly appeared, not loud. But with indescribable majesty, it is the Red Moon Sword Saint.

At this moment, this old sword saint did not have a bit of old age, his eyes were like electricity, he looked around the main hall, and said lightly: "What the Holy Light Archbishop and the Grand Duke said are all the truth. The assassins of the Iron Hand Brotherhood were also powerful samurai. And it was my idea to canonize Rollin as an earl, who has an opinion? ”

There was silence, the hall was silent, the needles could be heard, and no one had an opinion.

This is the majesty of the Guardian of the Principality.

After that, the canonization was carried out in a smooth manner. The silver jewel tiara was also worn on Rollin's head, and he became the Count of the Two Counties in the Duchy of Lehman. It can also be regarded as a feudal official.

But that's not the end of the story.

Grand Duke Lehman smiled and said, "There is one more thing today. ”

He beckoned to the crowd, and Angela, dressed in full costume, walked up, and then the Grand Duke smiled and said, "My daughter Angela loves swordsmanship, but she has no mentor to guide her. Count Rollin, I know that you have unparalleled swordsmanship, and I would like to ask you to teach Angela swordsmanship, what do you think? ”

Grand Duke Lehman's tone was very sincere, his expression was full of requests, and there was no command like that of a superior at all.

In fact, the Grand Duke has no choice, judging from the signs of his daughter getting along with Luo Lin in the past two days, it is estimated that the marriage will not be successful. This can't be done, but you have to have a relationship, so you can make it a master and apprentice.

Of course, Archduke Lehman did not say that he was going to die, but just asked Rollin to give him some pointers, and did not let his daughter apprentice with certainty. Because both parties are young men and women, who knows if they will have feelings for a long time, and the established master-apprentice relationship will become an obstacle to further development.

Therefore, in order to get closer to Rollin, Grand Duke Lehman really tried his best.

Luo Lin was stunned, he glanced at Angela, but saw that the girl looked at him with a sly gaze, and then lowered his head, and suddenly understood that the title of this earl was still a tuition.

What else could he say? The Grand Duke is so sincere, and he has just canonized him as the Earl of the Duchy, and he has given so much land, just let you teach his daughter, it's not a big deal, you have to refuse this, it would be too ignorant of current affairs, and the nobles in this hall can drown Luo Lin with a mouthful of spit.

Rollin smiled bitterly and saluted: "I will teach with all my heart, as long as Miss Angela is willing to learn, I will never hide my secrets." ”

Grand Duke Lehman smiled contentedly: "Okay, okay, then I'll trouble you." ”

This matter is decided, and then there is a banquet, although Luo Lin does not like this kind of noisy scene, but this time he had to participate, and was toasted again and again, and his face turned red from drinking, and he almost got drunk.

It was not easy to deal with the past, and finally returned to his room, Luo Lin let out a long breath, there is only one disciple, and he is also a disciple known to the whole principality, this is a big trouble.

Come and think about it, just teach, what's the big deal.

The idea was certain, so Rollin put it down and fell asleep on the bed.

The next day, Rollin packed up his salutes, bid farewell to the Grand Duke, and hurried to his own territory. As Luo Lin's disciple, Angela naturally followed, and she didn't ride in a carriage, but followed Luo Lin on horseback.

Two people, with more than a dozen elite guards, went directly north to Red Maple Province.

Rollin defeated the three Tulip Warriors, and it is estimated that this incident suppressed the Aoraki Kingdom, so there were no accidents along the way, and half a month later, the group first arrived in Levine County, which was a little further south.

Because it is located in the north, and the terrain is flat and grasslandy, Levine County is basically based on grazing, which is not rich, but it is not poor, and it is considered medium. There is also a city in this county, called Neverwinter, and there is a castle in the city, which was originally the residence of the Grand Duke of Lehman, and now naturally belongs to Lorraine.

Looking at the endless grassland, the dense cattle and sheep on the grassland, and the city on the highlands in the distance, Luo Lin felt that he was extremely open-minded.

Now, the land belongs to him.

The land of two counties, with a population of nearly 800,000, such a huge force, as long as it is managed well, it is enough to fight with the future orc army, the undead legion, and even the demon legion. (To be continued......)
