In 1668, due to a grand celebration, Madeira, the capital of the Duchy of Melochu, was crowded with people, and vendors from all over the country poured here to sell their goods, and nobles from all over the country also came to congratulate them.

However, at the center of this celebration, Leng Yi frowned, and sighed helplessly at the protagonist of the celebration and said, "Your Excellency Grand Duke Arthur I, do you know that you only have three chances to summon me, and you have used it twice now. What if you really need help in the future?"

Arthur, no, now he should be called Arthur I, the nobles who came to congratulate him, holding a glass of red wine, walked up to Leng Yi, and said in a joyful tone:

"Mentor Merlin, I have said that I will not call you for my own difficulties, and that would be detrimental to my knightly honor. But at this moment when I inherited the Duchy of Melochiu, I must invite you to come, it is you who have made me able to become a knight, and have given my life meaning and purpose. ”

Hearing these stupid words, Leng Yi shook his head helplessly and sighed, even if you don't use the magic mirror to summon me, I can incarnate myself.

Just as Leng Yi was talking to Arthur, there was a commotion at the door, it turned out that the messenger sent by King Liao Dekuan II of Gosamodo had arrived, so Arthur confessed to Leng Yi and went to greet the messenger.

Yes, in 1668, there was a change of power in the Duchy of Merochu, and Chakju IV passed the position of Grand Duke of Merochu to the 20-year-old Arthur, who thus became the youngest Grand Duke ever in the East Coast region, and Arthur I, even when the ancestor Merochu was Grand Duke, was not as young as him.

Why is there no young Grand Duke? This is also a place where this world is different from the history of the earth, although this world is a Western fantasy world, but it is more like the world that can be cultivated in the Eastern Ring Fantasy, that is, the family is very important, and the family head is also very important.

In this case, the inheritance method adopted by each aristocratic family is the inheritance system of the strong within the family. The so-called strong person, in addition to being qualified, must also have a strong enough faction in the family, so as to maintain the vitality of the family.

However, in some other places, such as Roman Hefei and other places, there have been child kings, and most of this situation occurs in the weakening period of the authoritarian state, and the king has become a puppet, so naturally it does not matter whether it is inherited by the strong or not, and the children are easier to control.

However, Arthur succeeded to the throne at such a young age, naturally not because he was a child, first, he was gifted and promising, second, he held three artifacts and was protected by the gods, third, he was married to the royal family of Gosamore, and fourth, he also had a strong faction behind him.

The combination of the four gave birth to a 20-year-old Grand Duke of Merlochiu, and even so, it is difficult for Arthur's situation to replicate a new example in the future.

After Arthur succeeded to the throne, those who failed in the competition, such as Bonwai Liean, tried to give Arthur eye medicine, after all, Arthur has always given these people the feeling that they are stupid. As a result, they miscalculated, Arthur is like Don Quixote, but he is very persistent and naïve in terms of knights, and if it were not for knights, Arthur would be very intelligent.

Therefore, whenever those people tried to deceive Arthur with the form, Arthur could find out what they were trying to hide from the cantata, and follow the line, digging up a big fish each time.

Arthur's law enforcement is iron-faced and selfless, as long as the "wicked" people caught by him, it is useless for anyone to intercede, and unlike the group of Merochou family members who were imprisoned in the cowshed, Arthur already knows the evil of the other party, so he will announce the evil deeds in the square and then adjudicate.

In the face of Arthur's ruling, although some nobles complained that Arthur was too strict in enforcing the law, no one dared to say that Arthur did not enforce the law fairly.

And after becoming the Grand Duke of Merokhoo, the ideals in the academy in the past can be used as a model for experiments today.

With the Knights of the Round Table gathered by himself as the core, Arthur obtained the consent of King Liao Dekuan II of Gosamodo, and began to implement the "Knight Training Program" in Madeira, the capital of the Duchy of Merochou, to pave the way for the upcoming "Knight Training Program" to be implemented throughout the territory.

As a god, Leng Yi vaguely remembered that after Liao Dekuan II learned of Arthur's plan, he laughed heartily and said to his attendants: "If my stupid son-in-law really implements this plan, there is no doubt that the greatest enemy of the nobles of the Duchy of Merochou will no longer be me, but my son-in-law." ”

So Liao Dekuan II happily agreed to Arthur's plan, and then sent the troubadour to the Duchy of Merochu to prepare for a good show. Before the troubadour left, Liao Dekuan II instructed: "My entertainment for next year will be on you, so listen and remember more, and be sure to accurately describe the interesting facts of the Principality of Merochou." ”

As mentioned earlier, Arthur believes that today's society is not ancient, morally degenerate, and the discipline is declining, and in Arthur's view, the solution to this dilemma is to train knights, as long as there are more and more knights, the world can become more and more beautiful, and the character is more and more noble.

Therefore, in order to train knights more quickly, Arthur bought a plot of land in Madeira, renovated the original building on the plot, and began to build a knight's hall. In the first phase of Arthur, a total of eight knights' halls were built, which were named after the eight virtues of knights.

For these eight knights' halls, Arthur sent eight knights from his twelve knights at the round table, and they corresponded to the virtues corresponding to the knights' halls.

These knights will recruit cadets in the knight's hall, and the cadets will be called knight apprentices, so as to expand the number of reserve knights in order to become knights in the future.

At a meeting of the Knights of the Round Table, Arthur explained to the knights:

"What do the knights in the knight's hall do besides train the knights' apprentices? The eight knights' halls are evenly distributed in the eight corners of Madeira, just to cover Madeira in all aspects and better benefit Madeira. ”

"Is there a clear goal for the benefit of Madeira?" asked Gawain, the son of Barça and the nephew of Arthur. Although Gawain is a knight, he lacks patience and hates to do trivial things, preferring to do things with a clear goal.

Arthur nodded and replied, "Yes, in the early days of the construction of our Knights' Palace, the clearest goal was to sweep away the local Guild of Villains and the Guild of Black Devil Worshippers. ”

The Guild of Villains, the Black Devil, and the Worshippers, when they heard the name, felt that these two things had nothing to do with justice, so everyone approved Arthur's proposal.

At the end of the meeting, Arthur emphasized the importance of the task: "My mentor Merlin once told me that when light recedes from one place, darkness grows where the light recedes. Although the Guild of Villains is an evil guild, it represents an order, an evil order. ”

"The mission of our knights' hall is to bring light to the local order after destroying the evil order. Therefore, this requires you to pay attention to what the Villains Guild has done when you exterminate the Villains Guild. We turn our backs on evil things, and we do things that maintain order, and that's it. ”

"As for the Black Devil Worshippers Guild? Obviously, there are white devils who have been certified by the state, and they still collude with the black devils, which shows that they are complete scum, and they don't need to learn anything from them, and they will all be wiped out mercilessly. ”

"That's my last remarks, do you have any questions?"

There were still people raising their hands, and it was Lancelot, the son of Bonwai Lee, who had been given to test the sword in stone when Arthur came home, and only two of the first people to test could pull out the sword in stone, one was Gawain and the other was Lancelot.

Lancelot said: "Your Excellency Arthur I, after the completion of the Knight's Palace, some citizens who are interested in justice also want to join the Knight's Palace, how to deal with this? ”

Arthur I pondered for a moment before answering: "It is said in the "Code of Nobles" of the divine realm that the poor ** plan, the rich have a long conscience, and those who have constant property have perseverance, and commoners are easy to become bad, and nobles are not easy, so when I was in the academy, I only recruited nobles as knights. ”

However, the situation at this time was not the same as it was in the academy period, and if the other party was a wealthy burgher, he could take his heir to the knight's palace, and be taught by a noble nobleman from an early age, and he should not fall like some morally corrupt burgher. ”

After the meeting, the news that Arthur I was going to crack down on the Guild of Villains and the Guild of the Dark Devil Worshippers in Madeira was posted on the door of the Knights' Hall, so it was quickly known to the whole city.

The presidents of the Guild of Villains also knew the news, how could the news released by Grand Duke Melochou not be intimidated? So they rarely let go of their hatred for each other and decided to meet to discuss countermeasures—after spending half a month choosing a council place that all guilds agreed on, the meeting really began.

If half a month ago, the presidents were still skeptical, now they are convinced that Arthur I is going to cut them.

In addition to training his apprentices, the head of the Knights' Hall spent his days wandering around the streets where he was, and when he saw the members of the Villain's Guild doing something, he would go up and clean up, and then ask the villains to confess what they were going to do in front of passers-by on the street.

"In just half a month, my income has plummeted by one-tenth, and if this trend continues, I'll be out of Madeira in less than a year!" one of the guild leaders of the villains roared.

"All the nobles above have shrunk their eggs, and none of them are willing to help us, either watching the excitement, or waiting for us to make a move to drive the king," added another villainous guild leader with an unkind face, "You should thank Archduke Arthur for being reasonable, so he didn't get our hands on us now, and even if he knew who we were, he didn't come to arrest us." ”

"And if it's the other way around, if we get the handle......" The leaders of the Villain's Guild shuddered in unison, not daring to think further.

After a moment of silence, a scarface broke the silence and roared: "Fight back! We must fight back! Before our handle is found by the other party! I don't believe it, the villainous guild has existed for hundreds of years, and because of this one grand duke, the rules will be broken!"
