Chapter 429: The Haughty Knight
During the days when Zhao Nan was away, it was the housekeeper who took care of the city lord's fort, and it was also this housekeeper who took care of the affairs of Tingfeng City.
Feng Feng's internal affairs ability surprisingly allowed Zhao Nan to have a lot of trouble left.
I heard that every castle lord fort actually has this ability, basically the same. But most of the city lords seem to like to hold power in their own hands.
Because each position can bring players a subsidy in terms of experience points, in addition to the positions at the bottom, other positions will be distributed to people who are closer to the city lord.
Listen to the Windy City is a little special.
The Chosen One here can even count the fingers of both hands and feet combined. As a result, a large number of jobs are still held by indigenous people.
The housekeeper's internal affairs ability seems to have been improved beyond imagination during this period of time.
……
……
The second princess of the Windless Kingdom was greeted in an exquisite courtyard. As a member of the royal family, this princess has a very sufficient guard of honor.
A group of twenty knights, dressed in bright silver armor and almost the same height, waited in the courtyard. I heard that the court knights of these kingdoms are all experienced in battle.
Whether it was good or not, Finana didn't know, but the group of people stood there like an iron wall, destroying the silence of this chic courtyard.
Accompanied by the housekeeper, Kaolin Kenji changed into a set of dresses that had been prepared early in the morning, and walked with a calm face.
"What people!"
The knight who spoke out was slightly different, with a cloak behind him, a knight's sword at his waist that was particularly luxurious, and a look of rebelliousness in his eyes.
Blade greeted with a smile, "Lord Adolf." This is the deputy lord of Listening to the Wind City, Lord Finina. ”
"Women?"
The knight named Adolf is the head of the Second Queen's Guard, and he looks like he is in his thirties. Back then, he was at the forefront of the battlefield, won a lot of combat exploits, and was promoted all the way. Finally followed by the side of the second princess. It can't be said that he is a half-life horse, but he is also a veteran of the battlefield, and his eyes are particularly sharp and compelling.
When she came, Finana and Zhao Nan simply exchanged a letter, saying that they would see the situation and not cause unnecessary conflicts if they didn't want anything else.
The appearance is peerless, and when he holds the sword inside, the Kaolin Sword Ji who will make the Black Spear King subconsciously dodge also smile slightly, "I'm just on a temporary basis." ”
Adolf frowned and said in a deep voice, "Why only let the deputy city lord come?" What about the Earl? ”
One of the additional updates. The Lord of the Chosen City automatically becomes the Baron of the Kingdom. If you have a knighthood before, you will be upgraded by one level on the original basis.
More than a year ago, after the crisis in Listening to the Wind City was resolved, Zhao Nan obtained the title of Viscount of the Kingdom, and more than a year later, he had been promoted to earl.
But the Earl was at least a thousand miles away. Finana had no choice but to say: "The Earl is out, it will take some time to be able to return, and I have ordered me to entertain Her Royal Highness well." ”
The head of the Order did not reply. He just suddenly put his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist, and said unhurriedly: "It is said that the Chosen One is a gift and a masterpiece of the gods. All of them are amazingly talented, and they are not talented, and they want to ask for advice, I don't know how? ”
Finana chuckled softly, "Including the princess, it doesn't seem good to compete here. ”
Unexpectedly, there was a crisp and moving voice in the room, and there was an irresistible majesty. "It's okay, Your Highness also wants to see if the Chosen One who is praised by the world is a gift from the gods, or is it just a joke and a generous smile."
Finana was noncommittal. I just think that if this princess doesn't make a sound, maybe her lover, who is thousands of miles away, will have a higher evaluation after listening to the post-incident report.
Zhao Nan said try not to cause conflict.
But women are different from men in some places. They can probably ignore some painless sarcasm, but they can't stand the slightest sarcasm of their own men.
The reason for Adolf's invitation to fight is unknown, but if he doesn't fight this time, before Zhao Nan returns, he will be given the name of an incompetent city lord, and it will not be what Fei Nina wants.
"Then let's limit it to three moves."
"Okay."
The commander of the knights readily agreed, and the sword stretched out, and under the scorching sun, there seemed to be a smell of blood.
When Finina was about to draw her sword, she suddenly heard a prompt from the system.
- Activate the 'Haughty Knight' quest. Contents: Conquer the proud knight Adolf.
As for the reward, she didn't care.
As an aborigine, she is considered to be one of the lucky ones among the Chosen One. This prompting voice has always been understood as a gift from the gods.
The same is probably true of the night moon.
"First move!"
Before making the move, Adolf shouted first with great fairness. This presumably follows some kind of chivalric spirit.
At this moment, the famous sword Elnis turned into a silver light, crossed an arc, and lightly picked Adolf's sword edge from the side, completing the so-called first move.
Adolf's first hand is a combination of strength and skill, which is summed up on the battlefield and tempered by a thousand times, but it is simply picked apart.
This made him a little unwilling, and at the same time he had to pay attention to the next two moves.
A glimmer of light flashed on his knight's sword, which was the power of the sword that players knew since the emergence of the cultivation system.
Finina has been practicing in this area recently. However, the seeds of sword power have just appeared, and it will take some time to be able to completely devour the mana.
Seeing that the knight leader was in earnest, she naturally did not remain indifferent - the task was to impress the proud knight.
The sword light flowed at this time. Now that it has become a mission, the restriction on the ability to use in the safe zone is naturally temporarily lifted.
With great speed, Adolf unleashed a strange trick that Fienina had never seen before. But even if it is eccentric, it can't escape her discerning eyes.
Brush brush brush.
Eighteen sword lights came out in unison.
Six ways of fencing, six ways of hitting people, and six ways of sealing people's retreat.
The sound of the stone striking and the flickering of the figure was followed by the sound of a piece of clothing tearing.
The Knights' wide cloak was torn in two, and Firina just landed lightly, sword in her hand.
The ripped cloak was blown away by the wind. Like a dragonfly's wings, Adolf froze and returned the knight's sword to its sheath.
At that moment, I almost felt death, and a drop of cold sweat broke out on the back of my neck. He saw eighteen sword lights, but he could only take twelve of them. Even if you have seen it now, the next time you do your best, you will probably be able to take on two more questions.
But for the master, not to mention the remaining four, a simple one is enough to pierce his throat.
"I lost."
The Knights said crisply. The court knight behind him was amazed, and he couldn't understand why the head of the regiment, who was superb in swordsmanship and was also a famous master in the royal city, lost.
If it's just because the cloak is torn apart, it's just because this flashy thing hinders the strength of the regiment leader.
Isn't there another trick?
Adolf gave up the hopes of his subordinates and turned sideways. "Your Highness is waiting for you, you can go in."
"It's rude." Fignina nodded, graceful as a raven.
Adolf's eyes lit up, and he was silent, but just waved the door open.
……
……
"I need to go back first."
Before nightfall, Zhao Nan went to the small hotel, found Luohe directly, and explained what he meant.
I feel that the soldier leader has been getting along very happily for more than ten days. At this time, he said in surprise: "Something happened? ”
Zhao Nan nodded: "The local kingdom sent someone to contact my city, and it was a princess who came." ”
Luo He frowned. Any city lord would have guessed that in the next time, he would definitely come into contact with the royal family of his country, or soon, something similar would happen in the capital of abundance.
"Then you do need to go back." Luo He smiled and said: "This time back to the territory of the Noldor Kingdom, we are probably the master and something. I just don't know if my identity as a viscount is good or not. But I think I've earned it, and I've been promoted to a knighthood by one level for no reason, which won't be too bad. So the next road is easy to take, and I won't send you away. ”
Luo He said with a rare humor: "Besides, even if it's a gift." I probably can't afford to send it either. ”
Zhao Nan nodded, and said with a straight face: "Don't say much, I will start preparing for the things we have discussed these days, after I go back." ”
……
……
The second princess is a little young. Probably fifteen or sixteen years old.
originally thought she was a pampered royal pearl, but her first impression was that she was a girl who would cause trouble.
The maiden's name is Yuro, and Yuro has a long surname after her, and finally the royal family name of the current Windnea Kingdom, Peter.
There is only one princess and one Finina, and it is very quiet. The more than twenty court knights outside the door did not make any noise.
The comparison between women and women probably starts with their faces.
While the princess of Yuro was amazed at the woman in front of her, who seemed to be carved out by a god, as if she did not eat other people's fireworks when she was calm, and was infinitely close to the woman that all men dreamed of, Finana was also admiring in her heart for the excellence of this princess.
"Your Highness is visiting, I don't know why?"
"Can you represent the Chosen City?"
Finana smiled and nodded, "Generally speaking, it's okay." If it's a big deal, wait until a few days when the Lord comes back before we can discuss it. ”
"Then wait a few days." Empress Youluo said indifferently: "I will stay here, and by the way, I will also take a good look at this Chosen City." ”
Accustomed to the concept of the city, but once she met a member of the royal family of the country, Finina was a little uncomfortable with the princess's course.
But thinking that this princess didn't cross her waist and spoke coldly when she opened her mouth, it was already excellent to show the nobility of a member of the royal family.
"Then, let me be a guide for Your Highness." (To be continued......)
