Chapter 31: The Dawn Festival
(Chapter 1 arrives!) Ask for collections, ask for tickets~~~~~~)
After completing the physical strengthening, Rhodes did not proudly show off everywhere, but patiently began to deal with the affairs related to the game space of the gods and re-adapt to his current skyrocketing strength.
Although the current Rhodes can be called the Cheng dΓΉ of the little superman, whether it is on the earth where scientific and technological weapons are prevalent or in this magical world where strong people are rampant, Rhodes' strength is far from enough. In order not to be treated as a guinea pig by some high-level magicians or high-level knights and warriors, Rhodes simply chose to make a fortune in silence.
For the current Rod, the trouble caused by exposing his body element, which has now advanced to the red bronze rank, is definitely not something he wants to see. So Rod very simply implemented the famous saying "make a lot of money with a muffled voice" on the earth, and concealed his body element, which is now called a small BUG. And Rhodes now devotes all his evening time to practicing in the game space of the gods, in addition to the necessary exercise time and eating during the day.
After going through the actual test of the gods' game space, the current Rhodes understands that one of the bad consequences of the explosion of his body element is that the body that could be accurately controlled now has a momentum that can not be controlled in the heat of battle. And Rod, who doesn't want to use his life as a tuition fee because of a mistake in the battle of an evenly matched or powerful enemy, works very hard, even when he is approaching the Dawn Festival, he is working hard in the game space of the gods.
Because at most, there is more than a month before Rhodes will set off for the Scarlet Canyon. If Rhodes didn't want to improvise when he might encounter a fight, it was important to quickly familiarize himself with his surging power and regain the control he had before!
However, while Rhodes was busy in the game space of the gods, the Dawning Festival of 1142 (similar to Christmas or New Year on Earth) finally arrived, allowing Rhodes to distract himself slightly.
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
In the year 1142 of the Dawning Calendar, the tenth day of the fourth month of the Season of Cold Winds.
This day is the beginning of the most lively dawn festival of the year in the entire human society!
More than a thousand years ago, after humans defeated the elven empire and the orc empire, the human race, which was originally enslaved and oppressed by the orcs and elves, finally achieved the domination of the continent. As a symbol of the rise of mankind, the Dawn Festival has thus become the most important celebration festival and calendar festival for mankind on the entire continent, which has continued to this day!
- Well, that's all the official saying of the nations of mankind!
For Rod, who has experienced dozens of big scenes such as the Spring Festival and Christmas in his home and bustling cities on Earth in his previous life, the Dawn Festival held in the town of Taaffe in the Ernst Territory is actually like that.
As the lord, Baron Ernst took out some flour, meat, wine and other food and held a free food and drink event in the town square for one day and one night. In addition to these free meals and drinks, there are also traveling poets, some slightly crappy acrobats, or folk performers who will perform for everyone.
"Let the dawn shine on the earth, and we will be the rulers of the earth"
"Come and see! These are the best looking pieces of silver jewelry!"
"Haha, it's all good bread and broth! Long live your lord!"
"Mom, I want that toy!"
However, looking at the current bustle of the Dawning Festival, the townspeople who rarely wore new or clean clothes were clearly quite satisfied, surrounding the traveling poets and acrobatic troupes who sang "Ode to the Dawn" in the square, tasting steaming black bread and broth, wandering around the stalls and surrounding shops in the town square, and even singing and dancing around the burning fire
Clearly, the townspeople were satisfied, immersed in the excitement of the most lively festival of the year, enjoying the food (in their eyes), the wine (the low-grade fruit wine) and the celebration of the Dawning Festival, as well as expressing their hopes and wishes for the coming year for themselves and their families.
The lord's mansion was also freshly decorated, and the mansion, which had been cleaned, scrubbed and decorated by the servants, was clearly festive. In the halls of the mansion, under the play of a band, the knights of the Ernst family, such as the knights of Ter and the knights of Tamon, and their families gathered to enjoy fine white bread, fine fruit wine, fine grilled meats, steaks, grilled fish, broth, and other fine food that far exceeded that of ordinary townspeople outside, while talking to each other and enjoying the leisure brought by the rare festival of the dawn festival.
"Master Rod, I didn't expect you to choose where to go on an adventure, but forget it, I still wish you to be able to make meritorious contributions on the battlefield like the ancestors of the Ernst family!"
In a corner of the hall of the lord's mansion where the music sounded, the Ter Knight looked at Rhodes, who was leisurely sipping fruit wine in front of him, and was ready to persuade with a bitter expression, but after the Tamon Knight on the side pulled without a trace, the Thair Knight, who looked as terrifying as an upright black bear in a knight's uniform, did not say some words of dissuasion, but wished that Rhodes himself could make a name for himself in the Scarlet Canyon.
However, both the Knight of Ter and the Knight of Tamon, after talking to Baron Ernst just now, felt that Rhodes' decision to go to the Scarlet Canyon was too presumptuous.
What is that place in Scarlet Canyon? Face the frontline battlefield of the Orc Empire!
Rod's behavior is exaggerating the danger if he says that he is dead, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with saying that it is extremely dangerous. And why did Rod, a noble descendant who was extremely talented and was also the first heir to the family of Baron Ernst, choose Scarlet Canyon? This is undoubtedly an unusually risky act!
However, as vassals of the Ernst family, the knights of Ter and the knights of Tamon obviously can't say anything more on this kind of issue, after all, this is Rod's personal choice and has been approved by Baron Ernst, isn't it? Even the parties and Baron Ernst had no opinion, and what could Ter and Tamon's two subordinate retainers say.
In fact, it was not only the Knight of Ter and the Knight of Tamon who did not understand Rod's decision, but others, including Baron Ernst, were a little puzzled as to why Rhodes himself chose to go to the extremely dangerous place of Scarlet Canyon to join the Hurricane Legion instead of going to the Royal Knight Academy in the royal capital of Diarlands.
However, after Baron Ernst inquired several times at the time, and confirmed that Rod's decision was extremely firm, after seeing Rod's amazing appearance in the autumn hunt and his traditional expression of his own opinions since childhood, Baron Ernst weighed it, gritted his teeth and chose to support the decision of his precious eldest son and first heir, Rod.
After all, the danger of this magical world is not comparable to that on earth, and powerful force is the guarantee that the nobles can maintain their status and obtain higher titles!
Baron Ernst knew that although the Ernst family had been inherited for more than two hundred years, the successive heads of the Ernst family, who had not been stronger over the years, were only able to barely keep this barony located in the remote Far North Mountains and had no special output.
As for higher titles and larger territories? Well, without the merits recognized by the kingdom such as military exploits and the emergence of higher-ranking powerhouses, it would be impossible for the Ernst family to achieve the above two goals!
Now that Rhodes is willing to try, the current Baron Ernst did not stop Rhodes after confirming that Rhodes had confidence and said that he was very calm and considering, but silently helped Rhodes to prepare, and even helped Rhodes persuade Baroness Ernst who knew that Rhodes would set off to the Scarlet Canyon after the Dawn Festival, and almost lost control of the "battle" with the bronze knight Baron Ernst with an ordinary physique.
Of course, Knight Ter and Knight Tammon didn't know this, but after seeing that Baron Ernst and Baroness didn't stop him, Knight Tammon, who had a more flexible brain, was sure that there was something he didn't know, so he stopped Knight Terr, a simple-minded friend, from saying anything that shouldn't spoil the atmosphere of the festival at today's dawn celebration. And the reaction speed of the Ter knight is not slow (the slow reaction speed will not survive to become a knight now), after seeing the eyes of the Tamon knight, he immediately reacted and quickly changed his words to wishes.
"Knight Tel, Knight Tamon, thank you very much for your wishes and kind reminders, but as a member of the Ernst family, I must take a certain risk for the growth of the family" After secretly reminding himself that the Knight of Ter and Knight Tamon secretly apologized in his heart, Rhodes used his acting skills to fool the two family knights in front of him who could be called his knight's path instructor.
However, after seeing that the faces of the two knights were still not good-looking, Rhodes understood that these two were still not very optimistic about going to the Scarlet Canyon, a famous place where opportunities and dangers coexist.
After all, Rhodes was just 15 years old, even if he had excellent talent and a bright future, but a boy who had just reached the top of the gray iron at the age of 15 wanted to make a name for himself in the Scarlet Canyon, a place that had contact with the Orc Empire and gathered humans, and the powerhouses of the Orc Empire could turn into a tragic battlefield at any time? I won't say much about this difficulty and possibility
Rhodes didn't think to say anything more to the two family knights in front of him, and after casually explaining a few words, he joined in with his own life and began to enjoy the last dawn festival before he left home!
