Allegiance in this world, under this feudal system, is a sacred relationship, the highest level of moral demand. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

A man can burn, kill, loot, and extort, but he cannot betray his lord.

No matter how virtuous a person is, once he touches this line, he is the most shameful person.

No matter how despicable and shameless a person is, as long as he abides by this line, he is a person who can be praised.

However, to put it bluntly, this is a personal dependency, or more accurately, a deed of sale.

This is also why it is clear that allegiance to Baron Toposso is more conducive to Lynch's integration into this world and more benefits, but he has always been reluctant to choose this option.

However, as Lynch has read before, you can't get it if you want to be a slave.

What Lynch doesn't like, there are a lot of people who envy.

The Canghui Mercenary Group is one of them.

Although it is a deed of sale, the safety factor will be greatly improved, and it takes a lot of effort to survive in this dangerous world.

In their eyes, this is a very good deal.

After all, freedom is meaningless for the dead.

Well, Lynch has no doubts about the refuge of the Canghui mercenary group and their loyalty.

But there was obvious hesitation about whether to accept them.

Strength is not the main reason for Lynch's consideration, and now if there are silver-level fighters to take refuge, Lynch will not dare to accept it.

It's about what Baron Toposso thinks?

Lynch is a guest soldier, a mercenary scholar, and has no master-slave relationship with Baron Toposso in legal relations, and Lynch, who lives in Toposo, is constantly recruiting.

What does this mean?

If Lord Baron thinks that Lynch is a villain with a backbone in the back of his head, isn't that unjustly dead?

This is also why Lynch wants to explain to Raphael that the magicians he once funded maintain a relatively equal relationship with Raphael, so that the Baron will not be suspicious.

Then go public on the backdoor.

Lynch believes that the Torposso Collar is a place with great potential for development, such as Dora, who has devoured the heart of the earth, even if due to the deviation effect, it is not possible to awaken the bloodline to reach the legendary realm like the Titans, the probability of achievement elements is still very high.

In this process, there will be countless opportunities for Lynch to grow his strength through Toposso.

It's not that Lynch has any bad intentions, but it's a normal strategic choice.

"Lord Lynch, this is our gift to you. Seeing Lynch's hesitant expression, Bertram gritted his teeth and took out all the hundred gold coins he had received this time, wanting to offer them to Lynch.

Lynch couldn't laugh or cry, it's good that I'm greedy for money, but I just got a windfall, what is the appeal of you giving it to me?

"If I am a greedy man, with the name of nobility but without the corresponding strength and heart, even if I win your allegiance, it will not be a wise move for you. Lynch pretended to be very bland, as if he was really that high-spirited.

No matter how unbearable it is in private, the façade work must be done well.

Otherwise, how can you be a qualified hypocrite, deceive the world, and obtain greater benefits?

Bertram was holding the money bag in his hand, whether he gave it or took it back, it was very embarrassing.

After Lynch finished speaking, he pushed Bertram's money bag back into his arms, and his usually powerful arms seemed weak and incompetent at the moment, and he was gently heaped by Lynch, and then retracted.

This kind of scene made Lynch laugh secretly in his heart, and sure enough, like himself, he was a person who was reluctant to make money.

However, such subordinates are used.

"Lord Lynch, this?" Bertram took the money bag back, half rejoicing, half regretting. If Lord Lynch thinks that he is a greedy man and is unwilling to accept himself as his subordinate, it will not be good.

People are heroes, money is guts!

Bertram had never seen so many gold coins in his life, and it was normal for him to be dazzled.

"It's your hard-earned money, and I wasn't your lord at the time, so how can I take this money?" Lynch said with an amiable smile.

Hearing this, the four members of the Canghui mercenary group were overjoyed, and hurriedly knelt down and announced their allegiance to Lynch.

"Wait, the allegiance ceremony must be in the witness of the goddess Nabis, which is a sacred and inviolable relationship. Lynch added.

The allegiance system of the nobility was first developed by the church, and the church has the highest right to interpret the allegiance system, and the allegiance ceremony under the auspices of the church is the recognized allegiance.

In other words, the church is the authoritative certification body, and it is also responsible for cleaning up some traitors who have betrayed the Lord and collecting the corresponding fees.

Since this matter was very much in the interests of the aristocracy, it was very popular.

It was the joint efforts of the aristocracy and the Church that made the system of allegiance the highest morality in the world.

Lynch did this for two purposes, one was to completely interrupt the retreat of the Canghui mercenary group, and the other was to do it openly, but it would not make people suspicious, Lynch was ready to explain to Baron Toposso that the Canghui mercenary group would manage the manor for itself and protect the manor from theft.

When the four members of the Canghui mercenary group heard this, not only did they not worry, but their faces were happy.

Lord Lynch is really a good lord, and he really chose the right one.

Such thoughts are presented in their minds.

The reason is very simple, under the auspices of the church, there are also clauses to protect the interests of subordinates, mercenaries like them who no one wants, sometimes allegiance only has obligations but no rights, and they are often used as cannon fodder, which is very sad.

And after being certified by the church, they will basically be regarded as their own people.

This is the enormous influence of the church on the world.

When Lynch informed Bray and Norma of this, neither of them reacted, Lynch, as a lord, it was normal for him to accept some of his subordinates, only Bray told Lynch that the strength of the Canghui mercenary group was too poor, and it was completely possible to find a better one.

Lynch explained that after all, they had helped me, and this cooperation also gave me an understanding of them, and they were people who could be used.

On the day of the allegiance ceremony, the gray sky of the city of Lanto became clear as water, and the sun poured unsparingly on the earth.

It was a very good day.

According to the Nabis chronology, it belongs to the day of the seven nights of flowers.

It means happiness, fulfillment, and a smooth life.

On such a good day, the fee for the church to preside over the allegiance ceremony is extraordinarily high.

Lynch had to spit out eighty gold coins before he had Father Grant officiate at the allegiance ceremony for him.

Father Grant is the authoritative theologian in Lanto City, and his academic attainments are far higher than his theological attainments, and many people regret that he wastes too much energy on articles and classics, otherwise the bishop will have his seat.

"Bertram Kirk, Erin Hill, Faulkner Arnold, Harrison Giles. ”

"In the presence of the goddess Nabis and all the Witnesses who are here today, will you four swear allegiance to His Excellency Peter Lynch, to be his powerful minions, his unapologetic hounds? ”

"Whether he succeeds or fails, rich or poor, he remains loyal to him until he returns to the arms of the goddess. ”

"We swear to be faithful and never repent, let the goddess judge everything!" shouted the four men who were half-kneeling at the same time.

After a whole day of baptism and prayer, the four of them were not only not tired, but a little excited.

As the ritual progressed, it was as if they had found a place to belong.

Damn, it sounds like getting married.

It's time to eat, it's time to sleep, Lynch originally thought it was just a cutscene, but he didn't expect to listen to it, and almost looked like a Spartan, so he forcibly held back and didn't shout.

"Your Excellency Peter Lynch, would you like to accept the allegiance of Bertram Kirk, Erin Hill, Faulkner Arnold, and Harrison Giles, and become your vassals, and will protect their rightful power and reward them for their merits. ”

"No matter how good or disabled they are, they will not be forsaken until they return to the arms of the Goddess. ”

"I do. Lynch replied with a black line on his head, forcibly pretending to be serious.

"According to the revelation of the goddess Nabis, I declare that you have become kings and vassals, and this is a divine relationship bestowed by the goddess, and no one shall break it. Fr. Grant poured light over the chanting of the congratulatory to close the ceremony.
