Chapter Twenty-Four: Ness Cuomo
"It turns out that Ewing already has the title of Viscount, and he is really a wealthy nobleman, he is already a viscount at such a young age, listening to the meaning of his words, the patriarch of the Jones family is Ewing's grandfather, and he is also the duke who is called the Grand Duke of Elk. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoThis made Lin Meng can't help but look at Ewing Jones, after all, the supreme ruler of the entire Duchy of Como is also a duke, so Ewing's identity is completely equivalent to the princess of a country. Lin Meng pricked up his ears and listened to the conversation between Ewing and Zack, and couldn't help but be surprised.
"Yes! Yes, I would like to ask Lord Yu to wait a moment and get into the city for you and your entourage at a moment's notice. The fat tax collector kept nodding his head, and from time to time he took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat stains on his forehead, and he didn't know if it was because Ewing was putting too much pressure on him, or if it was too hot. Lin Meng, who was peeping on the side, shook his head and secretly felt funny. He had never found that Ewing had such a cold side, looking at the cold face of the beauty in front of him, Lin Meng felt that the mature and charming goblin in time was simply like two people.
It seemed that he felt Lin Meng's gaze, Ewing Feng rolled his eyes, and his slightly angry eyes inadvertently glanced at Lin Meng, looking at Ewing's gaze, Lin Meng was completely caught off guard, and the peeping sight was caught, Lin Meng had to touch his nose and smile awkwardly, but he ushered in Ewing's big white eyes.
"Flutter!!" Looking at Ewing, who originally looked like no one could enter, instantly turned into a coquettish appearance with a clever smile, Rao is Lin Meng's powerful heart also jumped twice rapidly, and he couldn't bear it, Lin Meng quickly turned his head, looking blind. Seeing Lin Meng looking so colorless and daring, the corners of Ewing's mouth pursed a hint of a smile.
Half an hour later, Tax Officer Zach had finally completed all the formalities for entering the city, and the convoy set off again, slowly heading towards the city ahead.
After walking for another half an hour, the convoy finally came to the city of Oise, Lin Meng stood under the city and looked up at the towering city wall in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh secretly that it would take to build such a high city wall in this era, I don't know how much manpower and material resources it would take, and it could not be that it was succeeded with the help of the power of wizards. In Lin Meng's cognition, there was no country on the ancient earth where the city wall could be built to a height of twenty meters, and it was generally only seven or eight meters. However, considering that there are knights and wizards in this world who are beyond ordinary people, it is a different matter.
Lin Meng looked at the endless city wall with the undulating terrain, and couldn't help but secretly warn himself that he could no longer look at the things of this world with the eyes of the earth, although the first feeling of this world gave Lin Meng a bit like the Western Middle Ages, but the social productivity of this world exceeded his unknown many times, and it seemed that there was another civilization supporting this social system, which would form this kind of social pattern that Lin Meng could not understand at all.
Just when Lin Meng was secretly thinking to himself, the sound of "booming" horses' hooves came, Lin Meng's face changed, and he felt that the ground under his feet began to shake, even Lin Meng, a rookie, knew that this was clearly the momentum of a large-scale cavalry approaching. Not to mention the Knight Aino and others who were crowding around Ewing, everyone was in a big mess and immediately protected Ewing in the middle, looking loyal to the Lord.
"It's all quiet for me, it's all under the city of Oise, what danger can there be. Quickly stand aside and don't bump into the other person. With Ewing's cold snort, the whole panicked team suddenly fell silent, and everyone quickly put away their weapons and quickly stood aside with the cattle. For fear of colliding with the rapidly approaching cavalry, if they were killed as an enemy, there would be no place to cry.
Just when everyone was waiting on the side of the road, a heavily armed golden armored knight came madly on a horse, followed by a hundred equally heavily armed armored knights, but the armor was pitch black, not as dazzling as the armor of the knight in front. The golden knight looked at Ewing who was surrounded by everyone, his eyes lit up immediately, he pulled the horse's head and rushed straight without the slightest slowdown, and the knight behind saw that the knight in front of him was turning, and then he also turned and rushed towards everyone.
The first of them was the Knight of Aino standing in front of Ewing, looking at the cavalry on the opposite side who seemed to be overwhelming, Knight Aino's face changed greatly, and with a sound of "Cangchang", Knight Aino had already drawn the cross sword on his waist, took a deep breath, and prepared to activate his secret technique 'Silver Rain'.
At this moment, suddenly a hand was placed on the shoulder of Knight Aino, "It's okay," Ewing said lightly. Seeing that the golden knight on the opposite side was about to crash into the crowd, several usually timid people had already covered their eyes with their hands and exclaimed in surprise, only to see the golden knight on the opposite side pull the reins violently, and the golden knight neighed under the crotch of the golden knight, and the person stood up and stopped steadily in front of everyone. The knight behind immediately made the same emergency stop, and his movements were uniform. The crowd watching was nervous and dizzy, such a riding skill, it was really good.
"All right, Ness, I've come all the way to congratulate you, is that how you treat your old friend! Looking at the knight in front of him, whose whole body was shrouded in golden armor, Ewing said angrily with a roll of his eyes.
"Heh, I haven't seen you for so many years, and Ewing still hasn't changed your temper in the slightest. A chuckle came from under the golden knight's helmet, and then the golden knight took off his helmet, revealing beautiful blond hair and a handsome face, and looked at Ewing with a smile.
Looking at the face of the knight riding on the horse in front of him, Lin Meng's pupils shrank, because he couldn't tell whether the other party was a man or a woman based on his first impression. With a half-length long golden hair draped over his shoulders, Lin Meng never thought that a person's facial features could be so beautiful, yes, beautiful. If the face of Samuel Knight is called handsome, then this face is completely beyond the category of handsome, and can only be described as beautiful.
Because the other party was riding on a horse and looked down at everyone, Lin Meng couldn't see whether the other party had an Adam's apple for a while, and judging from the whole figure, the other party was wearing a gorgeous gilded knight's armor, and he couldn't judge his specific gender, so Lin Meng felt a toothache.
"I haven't seen you for so many years, Ness, you are still as handsome as ever, think about the girl who was deceived by you in those years, it is really not wronged. Listening to the golden knight's laughter, Ewing retorted without backing down.
"Ha, can I take your words as a compliment!" Hearing Ewing's words, Ness, who was on the horse, burst out laughing, and seemed quite proud. Immediately jumped off the horse, landed in front of Ewing, and gave Ewing a hug. And the Knight of Eno, who was standing in front of Ewing, had already retreated silently to the side when Ewing called out the name of the golden knight. Because the Golden Knight, whom Ewing called 'Ness', is the de facto owner of the entire city of Oise and the province of Ontario - Marquis Ness Como.
"Come, little Ewing darling, I'll show you around to see how prosperous the city of Oise is under my rule. After saying that, regardless of Ewing's disagreement, Niss took Ewing's small hand and walked forward. The crowd had no choice but to hurry up and follow him.
"Come on, you take Lord You's entourage to the inn and settle down first. After taking a few steps, Marquis Ness seemed to remember something again, and turned his head to the guards beside him and commanded. Suddenly, a few people came out of the guard, leading everyone to the other side. And the only ones left behind Ewing are Knight Aino and Lin Meng, Knight Aino will definitely stay to protect Ewing's safety, and Lin Meng is not a member of the caravan, plus he also has a lot of status in the caravan during this time, so no one came to call Lin Meng away at the moment.
Marquis Ness looked at Knight Aino and Lin Meng, who were following closely behind Ewing, and didn't say anything, turned his head and continued to pull Ewing forward with a smile and a smile. Walking through the city gate, Lin Meng looked at the bustling streets in front of him, pedestrians wearing various costumes, as well as vendors selling various daily necessities, and some dignitaries and nobles driving cars, as if they had really traveled through time and space to the Middle Ages in the West. Looking at the avenue at your feet, it is very wide, enough for four carriages to walk side by side, and the road is all paved with stone slabs of the same specification, which looks very neat and coordinated. On both sides of the road, there are rows of buildings of various colors, and the sharp spires have a strong regional style, which is an eye-opener for Lin Meng.
"Ewing we go up to the wall, so that we can see the whole picture, and how majestic and magnificent the whole city of Oise is. Marquis Ness seemed to be in high spirits, and pulled Ewing to the side and suddenly walked up the stairs to the wall, and the soldiers standing on duty next to the ladder saw that it was Marquis Ness who quickly stood up straight and saluted.
A few minutes Lin Meng followed behind everyone, and also climbed the city wall, from the twenty-meter-high city wall, the entire Oise City was in full view.
"Hiss" Lin Meng secretly took a deep breath, the huge city in front of him was completely beyond Lin Meng's cognition, although Lin Meng was still warning himself just now, he couldn't use the previous common sense to speculate on the current world, but such a huge city still shocked him.
As far as the eye can see, there are all kinds of buildings of different heights, boundless. The whole city of Oise is located in a depression, surrounded by mountains, built on the mountain, and on the other side of the city wall, is the wide and gentle golden waterway Ontario River, guarding such a golden waterway, the entire city of Oise is quite developed in agriculture and trade, so the number of permanent residents of this city is very large, worthy of the political and cultural center of the whole Ontario province.
In this way, everyone followed behind Marquis Ness, stopping and looking around, and it took several hours to get a first impression of the city of Oise under the narration of Marquis Ness.
Two hours later, Marquis Ness sent Ewing and Lin Meng to the inn where the convoy was located, and turned to say goodbye.
"Ewing remembers that the City Lord's Mansion came to the reception dinner I prepared for you in the evening. ā
