The Sun King's Evidence

Morgiana lived in Lane's castle. The Lake God Witch usually lived in a solitary life and spent most of her time in bed recuperating. The third floor of the Baron's castle was originally a private living area, and no one except a few people knew about it. Morgiana is hiding here.

The whereabouts of the Lake God Witch in Britannia have always been mysterious. Many knights on the expedition searched for her figure in the hope of getting clues to the Holy Grail, but they were destined to find nothing. Morgiana announced through the Order of the Saints that she had been attacked and was seriously injured to recuperate. The kingdom's nobles and the Holy Grail Knights all got the news. A team of about twenty Holy Grail Knights came to Ryan's territory to protect the safety of the Lake God Witch. Ryan asked them to station themselves at the winery.

The encounter with the Lake God Witch aroused great indignation among the Brittanian knights. Many knights errant swore to avenge the vampires and dryads. They yelled and rushed into the forests of Mousilon or Athel Loren, Never came back.

In the evening, after having dinner, Ryan and Veronica held hands and walked along the castle grounds.

The baron's castle has now been built very luxuriously and magnificently. All the walls of the castle have been repaired and reinforced. On the outer castle, the cannons made by the dwarves are as bright as new, ready to tilt the fire of death at the enemy. Several teams of sergeants are patrolling the walls. They Not only are they equipped with melee weapons, but they are also all equipped with hand crossbows.

The sergeants usually live in the outer castle. There is an open space between the outer castle and the inner castle. Now there is a huge stable, which is very luxuriously decorated. It is the residence of the pure-blood elf war horse Putao. Several serfs sleep with Putao. , ensuring that grape needs can be served anytime and anywhere.

Being able to sleep in the same stable as a pure-blooded elf war horse is the highest honor for serfs.

The armory and training grounds are where sergeants usually train. They are already professional soldiers in a certain sense. Ryan stipulates that when in the territory, a sergeant will be given two days off every ten days. When he is in the field for a long time, When stationed, one day off is given every ten days. There is no holiday during wartime. Holidays will be allocated separately and the holidays will be taken in turns.

Outside the castle is a huge horse farm. Some horses have been tamed in the horse farm. Today's training has ended, and some horses are wandering around on the horse farm. The one that stands out among the crowd is of course Ryan's mount Grape. This pure-blooded elf war horse has a great temper. Unfortunately, it not only wanted a territory of its own, but also wanted to be free to roam. Any attempt by the serfs to lead it would be rudely rejected.

Perhaps because of this, this proud pure-blooded elf war horse can carry the heavily armed Ryan. After a long battle, Grape, who has been influenced by Ryan's psychic power, is further evolving. Ryan is thinking about how to let this horse help others. bred to a mare.

This is hard work. Breeding pure-blooded elf war horses is very troublesome, and even requires the help of wood elves. These elf war horses have unusual tempers, and ordinary mares will look down on them and ignore them. The serfs want Try your best to make Master Grape happy, and then carefully let him choose the mare.

Veronica is wearing a champagne-colored wood elf satin knee-length dress, with a black scarf tied on the chest, a white bow tied on her dark brown shawl hair, and white stockings on her black stockings. Wearing suede boots, the sweet face of the Gloria Witch was flushed with excitement. She enjoyed the hard-won moment of relaxation: "Speaker Margarita said, not long after, when the teleportation array in my wizard tower Once it is stable, she will send a whole class of wizard apprentices to your territory. They can help you fight, help you make magic potions and scrolls, and can also help you experiment with various grains."

"When is your wizard tower expected to be completed?" Ryan felt the night wind blowing his hair and clothes. If nothing happens, Winford's reinforcements will arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. This will be their last leisure time. time.

"I don't know. Only two floors have been built so far. My plan is that the first floor will be used for defense and stacking debris, the second floor will be used as a storage room and restaurant, the third and fourth floors will be laboratories and magic workshops, and the fifth floor will be used for defense and storage of debris. , the sixth floor is the living area and library area for witch apprentices, and the seventh and eighth floors are my private areas." Veronica introduced the contents of her wizard tower to Ryan: "This will be the first in the history of Congresswoman Gloria. The most luxurious wizard tower ever built before the age of forty, and on the top floor of the wizard tower, I plan to build an unprecedented giant war machine...but there is no budget yet."

"...Don't be anxious, come one by one." The first floor of Veronica's wizard tower covers an area of ​​more than 150 square meters. If it hadn't been for the destruction of the Aesthetic Society in Marienburg, as many as For fifty god gold coins (50,000 gold crowns), Veronica really couldn't afford to build such a luxurious wizard tower. You must know that the first floor of an ordinary wizard tower generally only covers an area of ​​fifty to eighty square meters.

"No wonder Teresa was extremely jealous after seeing your wizard's tower, and she spoke in a weird voice. She is currently borrowing money from her mother, and is also planning to borrow part of it from a merchant in Marienburg to build a tower. Not inferior to your wizard tower." Ryan wanted to laugh after remembering the sorceress visiting Veronica's wizard tower.

That's called Chiguoguo's jealousy.

The two of them walked along the road, passing by the Chinon River and walking along the river. The rapid water lapped against the riverbanks and rocks. The wind by the river was strong and the road was quiet. This world was completely different from the densely populated world in Ryan's previous life. At night, except for villages and towns, most places are deserted.

"I'm in trouble, Veronica." After walking to a secluded place, Ryan motioned for the two people to stop. There was deep distress on the Baron's face, and he frowned: "Her Highness Morgiana's serious injury caused The kingdom has lost a person who can unify the power of all dukes. Although she has handed over power to me, but..."

"But no one paid attention to you, my dear." Veronica smiled coquettishly, her beautiful almond eyes filled with smiles. She helped Ryan tidy up his hair that was messed up by the wind.

Morgiana's serious injury caused some uneasiness within the kingdom. Since she was not seriously injured, overall it did not have much impact, which stabilized the morale of the military and the hearts of the people. At least the Holy Grail Knights and the nobles knew that she was hiding somewhere. A place to rest.

But there is a problem. The Lake God Witch's serious injury makes the kingdom lack a person who can unite the nobles of the entire kingdom to fight against the invasion of the vampire army.

Morgiana did delegate her power to Ryan and cut off a trace of her blond hair as a token. However, when Ryan tried to contact the Dukes, he was resisted by the vast majority of the nobles, because no matter what, , the Witch of the Lake God is the Witch of the Lake God, and Ryan is Ryan. As a baron, he cannot command the Duke. This is the gap in worldly status.

The baron cannot be hereditary, and in the eyes of the great nobles, the baron still has little meaning.

Facing the ladies' chosen champion, Ryan, who is extremely famous and popular, the Dukes will certainly not be particularly tough. They first emphasize their difficulties, their losses in the chivalry war, and the many threats they have faced recently, and then they tone We politely expressed that it was not that we were unwilling to help, but that we were really helpless. Some dukes sent several carts of black bread, some sent dozens of soldiers, and some said they were busy with military affairs, and then sent a few It ranges from ten to a hundred and dozens of gold crowns.

These things are a drop in the bucket in aiding Bordeleau, but they are nothing more than a drop in the bucket.

Ryan was helpless about this. It is true that baronet is not hereditary. This title can be regarded as the lowest level of the nobility and the highest level of the knight class. He is just an agent, not the Lake God Witch herself, and just a baron. The dukes can understand He already did it for the sake of his outstanding military exploits and illustrious reputation.

Only Francois, Duke of Winford, and Berhemond, Duke of Bastogne, expressed support for him. The Duke himself is on the way with more than 2,000 reinforcements, and will arrive as soon as tomorrow or the day after tomorrow at the latest.

Berhemond's army, led by Calard, Count of Garament, numbering about a thousand men, is still on the road and will go directly to the front.

It was almost dusk, and the river was flowing continuously. Due to the influence of the fairy tower in the lake, the water of the small river was very clear. Fish and some plankton could be seen in the river. Ryan was not too surprised by this. , he is just a baron, and his secular status is relatively low. The Dukes just let him touch a soft nail, but they didn't mean to give him face.

"Don't worry, my dear, in the Empire or Nord, you would definitely be in trouble. Maybe they would even drive your envoy out." Veronica and Ryan walked side by side: "You It’s already great to be able to achieve this level, don’t forget, you have only been in this country for two years.”

"Moreover, your future wife is a marquise, my dear." Veronica moved her long black stocking legs, her tone with a sour taste: "She is so beautiful and has a good family background, which makes people jealous. "

"So do you like Sulia?" Ryan asked casually, indicating that the two of them could return to the castle.

"From now on, it seems that she won't bully me... If she bullies me, my great knight, you have to speak for me. I am just a poor little witch. I don't have a Duke's Holy Grail Knight as my father. , and doesn’t have a high status..." Veronica quickly pretended to be pitiful.

"... Just don't look for trouble. What I'm most worried about is you, my great witch. Olica is a quiet person. Emilia and Sulia have a good relationship. Theresa... forget it. Let’s not mention her, I’m most worried about you.” Ryan squinted at Witch of Gloria: “Sulia’s character will not take the initiative to provoke you, but you…”

"No." Veronica shook her head gently: "It's not easy to get to this point, you know, Ryan."

"That's good."

When the two returned to the castle, the conversation continued. In the master bedroom on the third floor, Veronica relaxedly unzipped her boots and replaced them with slippers. At the same time, she continued to talk to Ryan: "Actually, I think... There is another reason why the Duke is reluctant to send troops to assist the Duke of Bordeaux, and it is not because of you."

"The conflict between vampires is not like a personal conflict. It is a threat that the entire kingdom faces." Ryan frowned. He also changed his slippers and sat across from Veronica: "What do you want to say?"

"What I want to say is that Duke Bordeaux, Boderick de Bordeaux, is the prince of Poseidon Mannann and the grand leader of the Poseidon Knights." Veronica said softly: "He is Dual faith.”

"Yes! This may be an important reason." Ryan nodded repeatedly in appreciation and touched his chin: "This is pride and prejudice. Yes, that's right. The Dukes have long been dissatisfied with Duke Bordeaux. Why can he enjoy the divine favor of Poseidon Mannann all by himself and still have the chance to become a Knight of the Holy Grail?"

"And don't forget, my great knight, Bodleucus has the best port in the entire kingdom, but there is also a port in the north that is not inferior to Bodlix, and that is the giant lighthouse of Le Angoulan The current king of the castle is Richard, Duke of Le-Angoulan, so do you know why Richard has not moved on to the army?" Veronica said with a sweet smile.

"The number of the vampire army has swelled to 20,000. The Duke of Bordeaux is currently leading 7,000 principality troops, including 2,000 knights. The army is stationed at Turis Castle on the Grismoray River near Bordeaux. , this is almost 70% of the troops of the Principality of Bordeaux." Ryan took out the map and frowned: "The two armies are almost only separated by a river. I don't know why the vampire's main attack target is Bordeaux. Luo, but..."

"Don't forget, Ryan, the vampires lost an entire flag team of blood knights when they attacked your territory." Veronica stretched out her little hand and pointed at the interior of Sharon Forest: "They are scared."

Witch of Gloria tucked her long hair behind her ears, and her long wood elf gemstone earrings swayed gently with her movements, making her even more charming: "The vampires are scared, since a whole Blood Knight flag team can attack. You disappeared in your territory, so what if sending more is useless? A blood knight needs hundreds of years of training, and the blood red duke cannot afford to lose, so he will choose the one that looks easier to deal with and is closer. Bordeleau took action because the capital of Bordreau, Bordliux, was only over a hundred kilometers away from Mussillon.”

Ryan nodded slowly. He must participate in this war. Defending Bordeleau is not only to help Duke Bodrick, but more importantly, to protect himself.

But before that, he had to wait for Francois to arrive to discuss and formulate a specific plan.

On the afternoon of the next day, Duke Winford led more than 800 knights and more than 2,000 troops to the Baron of Jean. The baron's 400 troops were also assembled, as well as more than 200 miscellaneous troops sent by other dukes. The soldiers were all serfs, a few sergeants, and not a single knight.

In the conference room of the Baron's castle, Francois brought his son and daughter, as well as a tall, handsome knight with a goatee. He was holding a cross helmet with a shining unicorn statue on the top and a white cloak. The bright silver unicorn armor made him look outstanding. He looked less than forty years old, and his eyes were cold and sharp, which made his originally elegant face somewhat deformed. Ryan asked curiously: "This yes?"

"He is my cousin, Sir Gerald." Francois first introduced to Ryan, and then said to Jarrod: "Lian, Ryan Macado, needless to say, from now on we are It’s a family.”

"Hello, Jarrod."

"Hello, Ryan." Jerod shook hands with Ryan, and he forced a smile. It was obvious that he was not used to smiling.

"Okay, let's talk about this war!"
