Chapter 518: Knighthood
A week later.
In the royal palace of the Kingdom of Heidelberg, a grand knighthood banquet is underway.
Celestino Diamutny, King of the Kingdom of Heidelberg, wearing a crown, wore a fine Duke's medal on the left chest of Ferrin, who was dressed in a ceremonial dress.
Then he picked up the title deed of a large villa in the royal capital and handed it to Fei Lin.
Knowing that Fei Lin had become extraordinary, the royal family held this banquet, in addition to rewarding Fei Lin with a large villa worth tens of millions in the royal capital, and also elevating Fei Lin's title to a duke.
Every transcendent is a strong man standing at the top of the world, and for such a strong person, once it appears, the kingdom will try its best to win it over.
After all, in today's world, in addition to the Kingdom of Heidelberg, there are two kingdoms, the Kingdom of Porto and the Kingdom of Ercano, and the Kingdom of Heidelberg is not the only choice.
If you cause the displeasure of the superlatively powerful and switch to the Kingdom of Porto or the Kingdom of Ercarlo, these two kingdoms will definitely be very welcome.
It is not impossible for such a thing to happen, seventeen years ago, the transcendent of the Kingdom of Porto, Arrin Langman, because of his dissatisfaction with the royal family of the Kingdom of Porto, switched to the Kingdom of Ercarlo.
At the end of the knighthood ceremony, one after another nobles of distinguished status stepped forward to congratulate Fei Lin.
"Mr. Sox, congratulations on your promotion to duke!"
Dressed in a sumptuous golden court dress, the First Princess, Emilia Diamutni, stepped forward and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Highness Princess."
Ferrin smiled and thanked him.
With his extraordinary status, even if he does not have a knighthood, he cannot shake his position in the Kingdom of Heidelberg.
However, he was very satisfied that the royal family could grant him a villa in the royal capital, where every inch of land was valuable, and elevate him to the rank of duke.
In particular, the title of duke, even for him, who was already a great elder of the Security Bureau, was quite useful.
The identity of the Grand Elder of the Security Bureau, after all, is an identity that is inconvenient to disclose to the outside world, and it is not applicable on many occasions.
However, the identity of the duke is different, it can be applied to any occasion, and in terms of practicality, the identity of the duke is more practical.
Following the first princess, the first prince and the second prince also stepped forward one after another to congratulate Fei Lin.
Following the three of them, the duke and earl who attended the banquet also stepped forward to congratulate Fei Lin one after another.
As for the earl, he was not qualified to participate in this banquet at all, after all, this was a grand duke's knighthood banquet held in the royal palace, and it was not something that ordinary nobles were qualified to attend.
"That's the first princess, that's the first prince, that's the second prince......"
In a corner of the banquet, Rowling and Claude looked at the nobles who kept coming forward to congratulate Feilin, and their eyes couldn't stop being shocked.
The nobles, each of whom was a big man they didn't usually see, now congratulated Fei Lin with politeness and even flattery.
And what shocked them even more was that Fei Lin was actually awarded the title of duke and became a top nobleman.
They have limited knowledge of the Security Bureau, so they do not have a clear understanding of Felin's role in the Security Bureau.
But when it comes to dukedoms, they know very well what it means.
After the feast, Ferrin and Lindy left the palace in a carriage, but instead of returning to Villa Hallowing, they went to another villa.
This villa is also located in the tulip area, which is the villa given to Ferrin by the royal family.
The carriage stopped at the villa, and Ferrin and Lindy stepped out of the carriage.
Upon learning of Felin's arrival, a group of male and female servants dressed as servants, numbering as many as forty or fifty people, came forward.
Among them, there are two people who are dressed differently from the others, one is a middle-aged man and the other is a middle-aged woman.
The two of them took the manservant and the maid and saluted Ferrin and Lindy.
"Lord Duke, Miss Lindy."
"Hmm."
Filin asked with a slight nod.
"Your names?"
"Lord Duke, I am Matthew Pincent, the housekeeper of the villa, and she is Mary Hannah, the head maid of the villa."
The middle-aged man said.
While the royal family gave the villa to Ferrin, they also arranged for Ferin to have corresponding servants.
After all, Fei Lin has a special identity and must pay attention to the secrecy of information, and if he hires ordinary people, it is likely that spies will be mixed in.
In addition, the salaries of all the servants in the villa, as well as the daily expenses of the villa, are also the responsibility of the kingdom.
To put it simply, everything in the villa, including daily living expenses, is free of cost.
It's a bit like the "senior civil servants" of the previous life, with servants and everything provided by the state.
"Pincent, take us around."
Ferrin instructed the butler, Matthew Pincent.
"Yes, Lord Duke, Miss Lindy, please come here!"
Matthew Pincent answered, led the way for the two, took the two to tour the villa, and introduced the layout of the villa for the two.
"This is the main building of the villa, this is the banquet house, this is the guest room, this is the garden, this is the pool ......"
It took a while for Ferrin and Lindy to walk through the entire villa.
The villa is very large, and in terms of area, it is also in the forefront among the villas in the tulip area, which is slightly smaller than villas like Halowing.
Leaving the housekeeper busy, Ferrin and Lindy walked in the main building of the villa.
The main building of the villa has a total of three floors, the first floor has a hall, a living room, a kitchen, etc.
On the second floor, there are rooms such as a study, a library room, and a collection room.
On the third floor, there are several bedrooms, each of which is fully furnished, including beds, wardrobes, bedside tables, quilts and sheets.
Ferrin and Lindy went into one bedroom to watch, and looked at all the bedrooms.
"It's pretty complete."
After watching, Lindy commented.
"I feel like I'm a little bit close."
Fei Lin held his chin slightly with his right hand and shook his head.
"It's quite complete, what's missing?"
Lindy wondered.
Everything in the villa was arranged by the royal family, even if she was quite picky, she couldn't find any mistakes.
"There's still a hostess missing."
Felin stared at Lindy with a burning gaze.
"Then you'll have to work harder."
Feeling Fei Lin's burning gaze, Lindy did not shy avoid her gaze like ordinary women, but said with a smile on her face.
"Okay, then I'll try harder."
Fei Lin said with a smile.
The next day, Ferrin moved out of Villa Hallowing, and into a villa given to him by the royal family.
After living in Villa Hallowing's house for a few months, it was time to move out.
If it weren't for the royal family's gift of a villa, he would have bought his own villa and moved out.
It's not that living in Harlowing's villa is uncomfortable, it's just that Halowing's villa is the residence of the Duke and Duchess of Harlowing, and as an outsider, he is not suitable for long-term living.
If Lindy was the only one living there, he wouldn't mind staying there for long.
In the morning, Ferrin woke up in his bedroom at the "Villa Sox".
Came downstairs for breakfast, which was plentiful and not worse than Villa Hallowing.
The ingredient channel of the villa is the same channel as the royal family, and the ingredients obtained from this channel are naturally high-end ingredients.
Ferrin wasn't very interested in cigars and wine, but he was interested in food.
The royal family should know this, so they will use the royal family channel to provide him with ingredients.
After breakfast, Ferrin sat down in one of the sofa areas of the villa and asked the maid to make a pot of black tea and bring it to him.
"Mystery Point: 1429."
Calling out the panel, Ferrin looked at the mystery point.
Wiped out a stronghold of the Eye of Death, and even besieged a Death Eye transcendent, who had originally reached 1429 points again because of the mysterious point that had dried up due to the promotion of the Secret Technique Silver Mirror to the Twelve Rings.
"It's already a lot, but it's far from fusing the secret art silver mirror."
Fei Lin shook his head slightly.
Previously, fusing the Mysterious Spear of the Twelve Rings with the Identification Eye of the Twelve Rings cost a total of 20,000 mystery points.
Now, to fuse the Twelve Rings of the Secret Silver Mirror with the Twelve Rings Mysterious Spear and the Twelve Rings Identification Eye, there may be more than 20,000 mystery points needed.
According to his estimates, this number will be at least the same as the Mystic Ascension Stage, which will double to 40,000 Mystic Points, and maybe even more.
1429 mystery points seem like a lot, but if you compare it with 40,000 mystery points, it seems very few.
"It should be difficult to gather so many mystery points in a short period of time, before the mystic silver mirror is fused, I can upgrade a few high-level extraordinary items to enhance my combat power."
Fei Lin said secretly in his heart.
The Eye of Arcane Identification that he had practiced could only exert its due power if he possessed enough high-level extraordinary items.
Compared to the transcendent, the only high-level extraordinary items that can be equivalent to each other are V-type extraordinary items.
And he only has one such extraordinary item, and that is the V-shaped cursed thing mechanical orb, and the price paid after using it is more serious.
It can be said that because he doesn't have enough high-level extraordinary items now, he hasn't brought out the power that the Eye of Secret Identification should have.
"Upgrading extraordinary items won't slow down my fusion of the Mystic Silver Mirror."
Because it is possible to downgrade the Extraordinary Items that have been upgraded and strip out the Mystery Points spent, Fei Lin does not need to worry about using the Mystery Points to upgrade the Extraordinary Items, which will drag down the fusion of the Mystic Silver Mirror.
When there are enough Mystic Points to fuse the Mystic Silver Mirror, all the Mystic Points used to improve extraordinary items are downgraded and stripped out.
"Among the extraordinary items I have now, the most suitable for upgrading is really the enhancement gem, and when I have enough mystery points, I will upgrade the enhancement gem."
Fei Lin looked at the Extraordinary Items column, and finally landed on the enhanced gem that had been promoted to Type V., but was re-downgraded to Type IV in order to become transcendent in order to fuse the Mystic Arts.
When it comes to choosing one of these items to enhance and boost, he still prefers enhancement gems.
After all, an extraordinary item of the enhanced gem is equivalent to having six extraordinary abilities: strength, speed, defense, smell, hearing, and vision, which is really fragrant.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps, and someone was approaching this way.
Ferrin closed the panel and looked over, only to see Matthew Pincent, a butler in a butler suit, approaching.
Approaching, Matthew Pincent said respectfully.
"Lord Duke, the Earl of Megalore has arrived, and I have invited him to the reception room."
