Leoria received the order and followed in the footsteps of the two gold-armored guards to the Counselor's Hall of the Dragon Tower again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Pushing open the heavy stone door carved with dragon patterns, King Tyras sat on the cold and majestic stone chair behind the imperial table, maintaining his usual grim expression, and on one side of his imperial table stood the Welskin horseman. King Teras was a middle-aged man with a resolute face and sharp edges, and when he was not smiling, his solemn aura was so strong that it was difficult for everyone around him to smile, even if he sat on a stone chair with simple lines, he still did not lose the powerful majesty of the lord of a country.
Keane's throne of the seven-skull dragon sculpture is housed in the Babel Sanctuary built of white jade, and usually only Tyras, who is a major event on festivals, will sit on its throne and convene hundreds of officials to worship, while other daily political affairs are summoned to the councillor's hall for deliberations. This point was also casually mentioned by Princess Vanessa earlier.
"Leoria, it is a great achievement that you have penetrated into the perilous place of King Manchester, single-handedly obtained a letter from the Prophet Mura, and came to me through many dangers to reveal Ambrose's machinations and help the people of Keene prepare for the Celestial Tribulation. I called you here today to reward you. Tyras said in a low, flat voice.
Leoria immediately made another knightly salute and hurriedly said, "The delivery of the letter is only a matter of duty, but fortunately I have lived up to the instructions of the prophet Mura and delivered the letter smoothly, so I can rest assured and ask for no reward." ”
"You are a rare talent, and I will reward you." Tyras said, glancing indifferently at Wells beside him.
Wells immediately took over: "His Majesty the King originally planned to reward you with ten thousand gold, two deeper sea pearls, and one ancient dragon scale. In addition, you have made great achievements this time, but you will inevitably be hated by Manchester, becoming their most wanted criminal, and you are in danger. The best destination is to stay in the Apocalypse King City and fight side by side with us. Since you are sincerely kept, the official will give it. You are a heroic warrior, and the civil official is not suitable, so after His Majesty discussed with me, he decided to give you the rank of 5, the title of knight, and the 1,000 golden armor guards of the army, and stay by my side as an adjutant for the time being, okay? ”
The reward came a little suddenly, and Leoria was stunned and fell silent.
He didn't know the rules of the Apocalypse Palace, and he wasn't sure what would happen if he refused a reward from the king in person...... However, it is true that he has not yet changed careers. It was very inconvenient to act in this great city without an identity, and during his wanderery yesterday, he found that there were too many forbidden areas that he could not cross in his current state. In addition, Clear Sky, who acts as a stand-in, and Queen Vanessa, who is always under threat to her life, also need a little more support, and after becoming Wells' adjutant, she may be able to find out more truths and help Clear Sky solve the crisis of this princess as soon as possible......
"Leoria, what do you want?" Wells saw that he was silent for a while, and then asked again.
This time, Leoria raised his head firmly and replied, "Thank you for your majesty's reward, and Lord Xie Jinqi appreciates it, and your majesty gladly accepts the order." ”
After listening to Leoria's answer, Wells praised him a few more words, set the time for the transfer ceremony for tomorrow, and ordered the guards on the side to prepare a room for him, so that Leoria could move his residence to the knight's tower after the transfer ceremony. Wells then took his leave to the king and walked out of the Counsellor's Chamber with Leoria.
The two walked in the long corridor where they met yesterday, and Wells was the first to speak: "The news you brought to us is the earth-shattering life and death of this whole world, the battle with Manchester is inevitable, and the fight with the monster returning from hell is also doomed, I need talents like you now, I hope we can be honest with each other in the future, and advance and retreat together." ”
"Yes." Before he knew enough about Wells, Leoria reminded himself to be careful with his words.
"There are five days to go before the seventh full moon mentioned by the prophet Mura, the day when the dragon will be reborn. In order to avoid causing panic among the people, the royal family decided to impose a total martial law on the municipal capital in the next few days, hoping to smoothly transition the vision of the day of the Heavenly Tribulation with all living beings. Tomorrow, when your transfer is complete, you will also take the 1,000 elite soldiers you have been given to you and start patrolling the capital three times a day. Wells directly assigned the task for a later time.
"Yes." Leoria had no choice but to take the order...... I didn't expect that there would be such a heavy daily affair after the transfer, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to take care of the clear sky and the princess after that......
Back at the welcome tower, Leoria informed Clear Sky and Princess Vanessa of the details of the King's bounty, and the princess reacted in a similar way to what he had thought earlier.
"This Wells bastard actually transferred you from me." The princess put down the wine glass in her hand with a "bang", turned her face to the clear sky and said, "I'm afraid that the talents available around me will be slowly stripped away, but you must protect your identity." ”
Clear Sky nodded yes, comforted the princess a few more words, and finally retreated with Leoria. (To be continued.) )
