042. Dragon Scale Feather Armor
Drow himself boasted of his past glory and was constantly reminded of the fact that he was a "former earl".
The daughter and wife are not surprised.
And for Jack's sake, Bran responded with a smile, and as for Howard, he didn't hate it.
They are all monarchs of the dead country, and they have a sense of sympathy.
Because Bran is back, the lunch is hearty and the main course is roasted whole lamb.
Killed early in the morning, Bran likes to eat the ribs of lamb and sprinkle them with a sweet and salty sauce.
Eating delicious food, Bran did not shy away from telling the story of what happened in Northern Italy.
So many days have passed, and the relevant message must have been passed on to Florence by the correspondents, and in three days, it is estimated that the Council of Cardinals will have a discussion of the "punishment" of the Count of Oz.
And Bran's plan, he defected to the Holy See and naturally did not say it publicly, and he could only tell his grandfather about it.
It was the first time the Drow had heard of this, and although Bran had said it implicitly, it was reminiscent of the place where Nefer's son had been kicked off.
Drow couldn't suppress his joy and quickly took a long sip of wine to avoid laughing.
Even if you think about Pianpin, Nefer had better be, and then a civil war broke out, and then his former courtiers and the help of his son-in-law would have the day when he would be called Your Excellency again.
Drow's only son, Alan, after this period of time under the fence, has become a lot more sensible, and his desire has also improved greatly, he drank two glasses of wine, which made his face look even more flushed, and then bowed to Bran and Howard, and then lost a few words.
To the effect that in the midst of danger, take in our family, as a knight, will repay the polite words of the guardian with his life.
I haven't seen him for a few months, and Allen, who is in the development stage, has grown up very quickly, half a head taller than before.
Between the eyebrows, they began to show their heroic spirit, and I have to say that the appearance of the Zhuoer family is quite high.
The sharp voice change period, coupled with a pretending to be steady, was a little funny, but Howard was quite satisfied and gave a glass in return.
Then cut a small bite of pepper-sprinkled lamb and put it in your mouth to chew.
How many bites are rotten, how many bites are in the stomach, in order to taste delicious, is already an instinctive reaction.
He is extremely slow, probably the slowest eater in the room, and he believes that eating should be a pleasure, not just a satiety.
"Bran."
"Grandfather."
"I have heard from the merchants that the giant Ashklay trained a navy off the coast of the peninsula, while the Byzantines trained the navy for only two purposes, one was the eastern Mediterranean, and the other was the sea between the Aegean Sea and the peninsula.
There is the Kingdom of Jerusalem in the Eastern Mediterranean, the hundreds of warships left behind by the Second Crusade and the prestige of the Leper King are still there, and the group of holy warriors, for whom the Orthodox Christians can also be captured, so I guess it is possible to target Rome or Venice, or even Florence. ”
The old duke's words made everyone put down their knives and forks.
The Aegean giants were to them a more formidable figure than the Byzantine Purple Emperor.
In the past two years, many merchant ships traveling to the Aegean Sea will be hung with the "unicorn" coat of arms of Ashclay's personal use.
Merchant ships pay currency and gain the right to use it for a certain period of time, and can seek support at the Aegean Sea Rice Checkpoint, but if they are found to be forged, they may be seized or seized by "pirates" on the way.
Ashclay's personal portraits also continue to appear on the peninsula.
"Grandfather, I also think you are right, it is estimated that it has something to do with the shipping of the peninsula."
Drow tried to interject, but a look from Howard told him to shut up.
At this time, it is a dialogue between ancestors and grandchildren, unless they ask questions, their subordinates don't need to carry their tongues, they just bow their heads and eat.
"Bran, after a while, the expansion of the mercenary group will be completed, the paper and printing business will be on the track, we will go to Swabia (the marriage is decided), and the peninsula will gradually be covered by black clouds, and it will almost be your big event (marriage)."
Bran had the face of the princess in his mind, was it really the future pillow person?
For a moment, Leary's cousin also appeared......
"Brother, is it true that the leper king is as the legend says, his face is full of terrible scars, and he has many poisonous snakes, and whenever anyone disobeys him, he will be imprisoned in a snake prison?" Allen's two younger sisters asked secretly, and Alan just answered casually.
The sea has cast a veil over the mystery of the East, and those lords who do not follow the orders of the Holy See will always be crowned with strange and unfounded legends.
After lunch, the weather was sunny and not hot, and after a short rest, it was three or four o'clock in the afternoon.
Bran and Jack's family rode around the neighborhood on horseback, bringing a few of the lord's family members with them.
Within a distance of nearly two kilometers around the manor, six eight-meter-high wooden towers were set up to monitor the surrounding movements, and those who went up were sent with bows and crossbows to aim at sudden enemies.
The Brans roam no longer than this area, and they also brought eight servants, so they were very safe.
When they came to a stream, they dismounted.
Jars were spread on the ground, and the ladies began to laugh, and opened the lunch box, took out the snacks, and mixed them with the brewed tea.
This was given by Bran, otherwise they mostly drank boiled water or light fruit juice on weekdays.
"Your Highness, I heard that you are studying in the Knights Templar, can I ask you for advice?" Eren sent out a battle between knights.
"Come on."
Bran didn't think he would lose to a young man, and although he wasn't big, he had been on the battlefield and killed enemy knights.
Not far from the manor, Bran asked people to go back and fetch wooden equipment for practice.
About twenty minutes later, Bran and Alan confronted each other on the lawn.
Upper section, sprint, chop, block, swim.
Peninsula swordsmanship has also developed to the point where it is quite possible.
Eren was skilful and his footwork was exactly as the other knights had taught him.
Bran gave the opponent the first attack, leaned the wooden sword in front of him, and only parried and dodged.
Allen became more and more energetic, he didn't know that it was Bran Xiangrang, he was young and vigorous, he suddenly wanted to win, his eyes turned, he increased his force fiercely, and then swung a blow from top to bottom.
Bran flashed sideways, went to the battlefield and some training in the Knights, and it was close to harshness, Bran instinctively fought back at this moment, and a silver light flew straight out of his right hand, slapping on Allen's arm, making him abandon the sword in pain.
"You're playing well." Bran stepped forward to comfort him.
At the dinner, Bran didn't go to eat, neither did Howard, and the two grandparents stayed in the treasury.
Grandfather mysteriously said that he wanted to show Bran a treasure.
Bran was a little stunned, all the things in the treasure trove, he had seen it many times, what else could he have?
The Howards stood in the vault, and then they removed their coats, revealing a layer of transparent armor as thin as feathers!
