Chapter 243: Battle Banquet (Part 1)
Balcony living room on two floors
The windows in the living room are on the south side, with six large floor-to-ceiling windows. During the day, the August sunshine can be shining in.
There are a row of bookcases with collections of novels and poems on them so that visitors can enjoy them.
Romon sat on the sofa, which didn't have to be covered with fur. After all, it was already appropriate to sit on this at the end of August.
In August, the fireplace was not needed to be lit, but the servant had already brought in three bronze lamp plates. Romon noticed that even now, the bronze lamp plate was wiped very brightly, showing the cultivation of more than a hundred years of family.
This type of bronze lamp plate can be inserted into twelve candles, and now it has been lit up by servants one by one, illuminating the entire room.
At this time, Romon leaned against the sofa. At this time, the core was not him, but the two new knights in the center. Captain Shabid was putting on knight armor for them.
Moreover, noisy footsteps came from the floor at this time, and many guests came one by one, including a few squires whom Romon knew, their wives, and of course, their children, which made the originally wide living room look a little crowded.
However, no one cared about it and noticed the two people wearing armor in the center.
Haiwave's knight armor is composed of standard knight armor, helmets with a movable mask, breastplate, arm guards, leg guards, etc., and is protected by armor leaves at joints.
This is the standard full-body armor. When worn with full armor, all the bodies are in it, and there is a red cloak behind it.
"This is the official knight's armor, customized 300 years ago, and has continued to this day. It has a certain amount of magic metal inside and adopts a multi-layer armor method. It not only has good physical protection capabilities, but also has some resistance to spells. It can even defend against basic crossbow shooting, weighing fifty-five kilograms." Sir Demerka said, pointing to Haiwave's knight's armor.
Fafer also put on his armor, which was faintly shining with silver light, gorgeous and majestic style. He even had a golden feather on his helmet, and the armor was accompanied by a white cloak behind him.
"This is the knight armor used in the upper level, that is, the knight armor used at level 11 to level 15. It is permeated with dense silver and other metals, and its structure is more complex, weighing 66 kilograms." Sir Demerka pointed at Faffel's knight armor and said, "It seems that you really expect him to become the upper level knight!"
"However, the only thing you lack is the second pair of knight armor, which does not have family marks. I heard that you have obtained the family badge, and you can inlaid your family badge on it."
Romon nodded. At this moment, the two dressed knights were moving, and a trace of fighting spirit penetrated out of the armor. Hevavi's body was a faint red fighting spirit, while Fafeer's body was a faint blue fighting spirit.
"Oh, one is the fighting spirit with fire attributes, and the other is the fighting spirit with wind attributes, both are good!" Sir Daimoka admired, his eyes a little sad. His family was in vain, but there was no knight.
"Sir Demerka, can you talk about fighting spirit, distinction, and level?" Romon said inquiring about this.
"Okay, generally speaking, warriors practice their bodies. When the human body reaches its limit, it is the peak of level 4. However, this is not a knight. In ancient times, there were such people fighting in armor, but the heavy armor often made them difficult to move. Some even fell to the ground and could never get up again, and were killed by children through gaps."
"...The origin of Dou Qi is difficult to find, but in ancient warriors finally broke through the limits of the human body. This is the original knights. They are the source of heroes. Later, this power was gradually studied, especially the god of war Edmund, which has an indelible effect on the promotion of this power." As the knight family, Sir Daimoka, although he did not break through the knight himself, his research can be considered profound: "Three thousand years ago, Dou Qi began to move towards system and maturity. It is the limit of human beings. The power that surges from the body must be exercised to level 4 to stimulate. However, the conditions for excitation are different. Some people are easy to stimulate, and some people need to take ten or twenty years to stimulate."
"There are many types of Dou Qi, but the most common ones are Dou Qi, Feng, Fire, Earth and Water."
"Is there any fighting spirit of light and darkness?" Romon said inquiring advice.
"Anyway, the knights of the Lord of Light are mostly fighting spirits of light, and on the contrary, there is also fighting spirits of darkness, that is the dark knight." Sir Demerka replied, and when he talked about the dark knight, he couldn't help but lower his voice: "In addition to this, there are all kinds of fighting spirits."
"Is that a rare fighting spirit, more powerful?"
"Of course not. Our world is composed of six major elements, light, dark, wind, fire, earth and water, and they are almost everywhere. Therefore, those with these six fighting spirits have broad development prospects. On the contrary, those very rare fighting spirits often mean that the potential is very low." Sir Demerka explained: "So the two knights, Fafer and Hevave, both have considerable potential, especially Fafer, who is only twenty years old this year, breaking through the knight at the age of twenty, and it is really possible to become the superior knight in the future."
"What about the division of the knights?"
"Generally speaking, according to the rules of the nobles and kingdoms, level 5 can be called a knight and enjoy the treatment of a knight, but in fact, it will be officially enthroned until level 6. Of course, no one said in advance."
"This is an ordinary knight until level 10, but after level 11, there will be another qualitative change. At this stage, it is called a superior knight, a higher knight, or a silver knight."
"Where is level 15?"
"Level 15 is another level. No matter what attribute of Dou Qi is, it will gradually turn into golden yellow when it breaks through level 15. Of course, there is only a trace at first, but when it reaches level 20, it is basically completely golden yellow, so it is called the Golden Knight."
Romon suddenly thought of a certain Earth animation and couldn't help laughing. He simply asked, "What about it?"
Sir Daimoka looked at him in surprise and laughed silently. The man in front of him was only nineteen years old this year and was only young next year. It was natural to have some young minds, so he said: "Moreover, it is a legend. Originally, they are legends in the world."
"After the knight was promoted to level 21, it is said that all the power was transformed into golden holy power, with a pair of golden holy powers, which were exactly the same as the high angel. It was called a legend or a sword saint. It was a powerful man who could suppress all the knights in the world with one sword and made them bow down. He had never heard of it in the whole world for hundreds of years."
When Romon heard this, he was fascinated by leisurely.
Druids actually have similar entry into Jin. Level 1 to 4 are low-level druids, level 5 is breakthrough, level 6 to 10 are intermediate druids, and it doesn’t matter if they call them masters.
Level 11 to Level 14 are high-level druids. When they break through level 15, they are called the Great Druids. It is said that they have the right to require any country to require a forest of thousands or even tens of thousands of square kilometers as their territory.
I believe that after level 15 to level 20, the druid's natural power will undergo a qualitative change like the knight!
After level 21, the degenerate druid mastered the way of nature and called him a Saint Druid!
Just as Romon was thinking, Sir Demerka hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind to take out a thin booklet: "Hey, Lord Lord, you come to rescue me, I have nothing to repay. This is the precautions after becoming a knight. It was left by our ancestors. It was originally Owenna's dowry, you can take it!"
Romon was shocked.
There are not many secrets in fighting qi training, but after fighting qi is successful, how to exercise twice the result with half the effort, how to pay attention to the taboos during exercise, how to use medicine or other methods to cooperate, are all the secrets that the Knights have obtained through generations of exploration, and only blood relatives have known about it. Now that Romon has given it, the reward is also profound.
"Sir Demerka, thank you, then I'll accept it." Although my heart was turbulent, Romon still looked at it deeply and took it over, not polite.
This is an urgent need for Fafer and Hevavi.
With this, it is very likely that these two people will become the future knight family.
Romon accepted this love.
At this time, the Knights performance had been completed and everyone was satisfied.
"Okay, let's have a banquet to celebrate!" Sir Demerka pulled the service bell on one side. For a moment, a knock came from outside the door, and then the servant came in to arrange the dining table.
Just then, Owenna also came up to say hello. Imisha was not here and she had been sent to the city.
This lady, who was as old as Romon, was obviously dressed up carefully and wore a beautiful dress with delicate curves, blonde hair above the waist, bright purple eyes, tall chest, slender legs, especially with the heroic spirit of a warrior, which made her particularly charming.
Romon smiled. Two years ago, she was only level 2, and now she is also a level 3 warrior, but she is far from becoming a knight. I have to say that the threshold for a knight is actually very high.
The dining table was very long and very large. The first seat was Sir Demerka and Madam, and Miss Owenna, followed by Romon, and below were the two new knights, and then a group of gentlemen.
In this era and in this world, the hierarchy is both strict and cruel, and tolerant and polite. This depends on that aspect.
For most tenants and free people, this is a strict and cruel hierarchy. All tenants and free people must avoid or perform salutes when they see the nobles. Those who violate the violation will be severely punished.
But to be honest, the hierarchy of the aristocracy is much looser than that of the Chinese Empire. A nobleman doesn’t have to be too stoop when he sees a king. They are internal shareholder relations, the king is the chairman, and other nobles are shareholders - this is how Romon understands it.
However, there are still hierarchical differences between nobles, and the status of knights is always above that of gentlemen.
After taking the seat, Romon saw the Baudry couple whom he met at the salon of Sir Demerka last time. They hadn't seen each other for a while. Both of them looked like earthy and had a very bad expression. When they saw him, they nodded politely and had a little enthusiastic expression.
"Oh, Lord Lord, I'm glad to see you here. If it weren't for you, maybe we'd still deal with the demons on the wall!" Baldry said enthusiastically: "Come on, let's raise our glasses to the Lord and the two knights."
No one objected to this proposal. Everyone raised their glasses to drink. Romon glanced at him and found that there were more gentlemen and wives he didn't know, but fewer people he knew. He couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't you see Mr. Daly and Mr. Brandt?"
When asked about this, everyone was a little silent. Sir Damerka sighed and said, "Mr. Daley refused to leave the village, but was killed by the demon. Mr. Brandt moved to my house with his family. He was attacked by the demon halfway and died."
"...sorry" Romon couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"Nothing, this is fate!" Everyone nodded, and Mr. Baudry nodded, saying, "It is true, may we bless them to rest in the Kingdom of God."
After a while, it was natural that everyone changed the topic and stopped talking about these things. At this time, the banquet was officially launched.
After encountering a demon attack, it took only two and a half months, and it would not affect the noble's food.
The dishes were served with refined bread, cheese butter, and basic dishes such as pheasant, cormorant, hare, goose, ham, wine and four or different soups. Overall, it was not luxurious or simple. It was a normal banquet, but it was good to maintain this.
Romon ate and thoughtful. The devil disaster was only two and a half months ago, and a large number of small gentleman-level villages were destroyed, and these territories were vacated.
As the war continues, will even territory like the baron face destruction?
Then more and more territories were empty.
In this world, the nobles regard land, titles and badges (flags) as three major items. Although there are differences in titles and land sizes between them, they do not belong to each other and only bear one obligation.
If it were in the Middle Ages on Earth, the nobles could find reasons to fight each other, but in this world where the true gods were powerful, it would be difficult to find a suitable reason.
Once a nobleman takes office, it will be difficult to shake, and the king will find it difficult to deprive hereditary territory and titles.
Similarly, it is difficult for a noble to be enterprising. It often takes several generations, or even more than ten generations, to be promoted to the next level.
But at this time, the magic disaster is a huge baptism of war, and countless corrupt people will perish here, and outstanding talents will stand out. Not to mention anything else, just talking about the training of war and the beliefs generated as a result, in the pre-predictable future, a large number of talents will pour out like springs and advance upward at a speed of several times beyond the peace era. These are all heroes who will enfeoff the land after the magic disaster in the future.
Maybe, this is the cycle of reincarnation in this world!
I thought about drinking, but before everyone could fully enjoy themselves, a servant rushed in: "Sir, it's not good, the devil is going to attack again."
Everyone present changed their colors.
Sir Demerka, Fafer, Hevavi and others all looked at Romon, and before they knew it, Romon became their leader.
Romon snorted coldly. After the banquet, it was a dance party and would dance with the ladies and wives, but at this time, it was disturbed. Although Romon was not very enthusiastic about this, he still felt very disappointed.
He stood up and said calmly: "Fafell, Hevavi, put on your armor, it seems we are going to fight."
Sir Demerka also said, "Sir, please lead the team and go to the wall together!"
Suddenly, a turmoil was rushing to the wall.
Chapter completed!
