The clothes of the nobles made Liu shocked, envious and jealous at the same time. Just a piece of jewelry on those noble ladies dazzled Liu's eyes.
Liu Zhencheng felt a little guilty. The three girls followed him, but they still didn't have any decent jewelry.
As for the officers of the Pyg and Orephin tribes in the army, they are also very eye-catching. They are wearing neat and sophisticated chain armor, with the most popular dark green cloaks on their backs, and they look majestic.
There is a sense of arrogance and the style of coming from a big city is reflected in every aspect.
The weight of the tall and burly giant elephant warriors cannot be carried by chairs, and their seats are all made of huge wooden pillars.
The four fox clan servants struggled to move a huge oak barrel in from outside the door. The four lifting ropes were stretched straight. When passing by a giant elephant warrior, the Olephan officer moved this with one hand.
A huge oak barrel was brought to the table.
The servants bowed respectfully to express their gratitude, and opened the lid of the wine barrel with a conical drill. A strong aroma of wine immediately spread throughout the hall.
"Gentlemen, distinguished priests and Knights Templar!" The governor pressed the silver bell at hand, and there was a crisp "ding-dong" sound. The hall immediately fell silent, leaving only the servants who were carefully scooping out wine with lifts.
sound.
"Today, I have the honor to invite the future star of our fox clan, the first Komodo war monster priest who appeared after the Battle of Hyjal - Miss Helen Lena to attend my cocktail party." The Governor was reserved.
Di smiled and nodded at Helen: "This is not only the pride of the temple, but also the pride of our Fox Fox clan."
The applause started immediately.
Prince Richard clapped especially enthusiastically.
"Cheers to the beautiful Helen." The governor raised the golden cup in his hand, which was filled with red wine.
Except for the Templars who drank water, everyone else raised their wine glasses and took a sip before wiping their mouths with snow-white mouth cloths.
Liu Chenchen sat the farthest away, drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp, and burped.
"Drink slowly, my lord, this is Lang Fei, which is brewed from seventy-year-old grapes from Puerto Rico and then cellared for ten years." The servant beside him said kindly, and poured another glass for him.
"The wine brewed by the hobbit halflings in my family is not as good as the wine." Liu shocked and smashed his mouth.
This guy is really good at boasting. The servant looked at Liu Zhensha with a smile and murmured in his heart.
Caviar, foie gras, smoked salmon, baked snails, these steaming hot dishes were placed on silver trays and served in front of every guest.
"My chef comes from Franz, a country of human food. Franz's chefs are as famous as swordsmen. Dear sirs, you may wish to have a taste of what the food of the human country is like." The governor's face could not be concealed.
It's a pleasure to live here.
"Cheers to your health!" Everyone present expressed their gratitude to this noble chief executive of the Northeast Province.
Liu Zhencheng brought a plate of baked snails to the ground. Guoguo and Katyusha immediately gathered around them, eating and smashing their mouths.
Led by the attendants of the Governor's Mansion, a group of scantily clad human women entered the hall.
These women all wore half-veils on their faces. The veils were very light and thin. The thickness was just right to show off their charming charm. Their eyes were full of autumn spinach.
After bowing and saluting the Governor, he danced an exotic dance to the beautiful sound of the canon.
Their snow-white navels are covered with shiny scales, and their waists are even more beautiful than snakes.
Including the Templars, all the men who were eating narrowed their eyes and looked at these desert dancers, trying their best to hide the greed leaking out of their eyes. Occasionally mixed with one or two low groans, it was a certain
The lady calmly pinched her husband under the table.
"Desert humans?" Helen was surprised.
"You are really discerning." Governor Rosenberg said proudly: "I bought these desert women from the slave market in the royal city at a high price from the Dolot human slave traders. Each of them cost me thousands of gold coins.
.”
Helen's eyes were filled with sadness. How could she not know about desert humans? The tragedy of Maple Leaf Village came to Helen's heart bit by bit from the depths of her memory.
The little fox lowered his head and his shoulders shook slightly.
She was trying her best to suppress her fluctuating emotions, and her eyes were moist.
Liu Zhencheng suddenly felt that the food in front of him was suddenly boring. Looking at the adults talking loudly, his heart was suddenly filled with something.
Several high-ranking nobles present loudly talked about the collection of slaves they bought this year. Some showed off that they bought a half-elf, and some proudly said that they bought a noble woman from the decline of mankind.
There is also a Fox noble from the Political and Legal Affairs Department who is even more exaggerated. He actually bought a mountain giantess slave. Of course, she is an underage little giant. The young tooth giant is only as tall as an adult human and has a cute and beautiful face---
---This may be the reason why this noble gentleman from a well-off family bought her.
Helen obviously couldn't adapt to this kind of topic, so she lowered her head and drank the asparagus soup, letting the noble gentlemen around her brag about it.
"Miss Helen, which family are you currently loyal to?" the governor asked kindly when he saw that Helen had not spoken for a long time.
"I come from Maple Leaf Village, a border village. My family was massacred by human bandits who attacked half a year ago." Helen gritted her teeth and stared at the desert women singing and dancing.
"It's such a pity." The Governor shrugged his shoulders, with a sad look on his face.
"Do you have any relatives at home now?" Another Fox nobleman also put down the fork in his hand and wiped the grease left by the trout on the corners of his lips with a cloth.
"Grandpa's family is a favorite, and he is now in the royal city of Shabak." Helen was embarrassed and everyone looked at her, and she lowered her head shyly.
"Oh~~" The noble gentlemen all nodded.
It turns out that he is just a declining Fox nobleman in the countryside. Several noble gentlemen looked at the complex pattern of family crests on the crutches and thought a little proudly.
A "favorite" is a trainer who specializes in raising Templar mounts for the temple. To put it bluntly, he is a retainer of the temple. Very few among the upper-class nobles would lower themselves to do such an unseemly job.
Since Helen's grandfather's family has this kind of background, there is no need to ask more about the power and background of Helen's own family.
"Dear Helen, since your family is no longer here, why not join our Delray family!" The Governor laughed loudly: "Let our family make up for the suffering you have experienced over the years."
As soon as the governor finished speaking, several powerful Fox nobles also made the same solicitation intention.
Among Behemoth, big families are becoming more and more powerful, while small families are becoming more and more declining. The main reason is also because of the monopoly of talents, potential warriors and priests. If you don't join the big family, it will be difficult to get ahead.
Japanese.
The Fox nobles present here represent the largest forces in the Fox clan. If Helen's strength was not so coveted, these nobles would not have extended the invitation so directly at the dinner table.
Liu Zhenshao on the side was sneering.
He thought of the Sitting Mountain Eagle.
How could this *** be a noble? He was just a bandit. Liu Zhancheng’s lips curled up.
After finishing their dance, the desert dancers picked up the golden long-mouthed pots and poured the date palm wine from the desert country for the nobles present, as if dancing through flowers and butterflies.
Before Liu Zhenchen came to this world, there were already some pictures of Hong Kong and Taiwan celebrities on the streets, all showing their arms and legs. It was still very tempting at that time.
The graceful figures of these dancers were so exposed that Lao Liu's eyes were glued to them.
A scream.
In order to cause trouble, Lao Liu pretended to be a public servant and pinched the dancer's buttocks.
Then he received two hard pinches on his waist.
As expected, the attention of the nobles was attracted by the tearful dancer who was pinched, and they temporarily gave up questioning Helen.
"Helen is not yet a minor. My lord, according to the laws of the kingdom, she has not yet reached the legal age to be loyal to any family." The beautiful snake Cui Bexi saw Helen's hesitation and helplessness and stepped forward to help her.
Rescued.
"The war beast priest may not need to be loyal to any family, because she can set up a road sign for a glorious family by herself." Prince Richard glanced at Liu Zhenshao in the distance and smiled: "But stay away from those who like
A little guy who does boring things."
Seeing the two dignitaries helping Helen out of the siege, the governor and the nobles were all old-timers, so they laughed and laughed to cover up their disappointment.
"I heard that Helen Priest also has an apprentice named "Dragon Priest" from the Pig tribe?" The Governor's eyes wandered among the crowd. He seemed to want to liven up the dull atmosphere.
Liu Zhenshao stood up from a distance and nodded towards this distinguished man, his mouth shining with oil.
A burst of hearty laughter broke out in the hall.
"I heard that your fire-type dragon pet died in an accident. It's really a pity." The Governor had obviously heard a lot of jokes about the dragon priest during this period, and there was a hint of a smile on his lips.
There was another burst of laughter, and Prince Richard laughed the most.
"A bunch of idiots." Liu Zhenshao whispered.
Although the voice was not loud, the waiter next to him still heard it. With a shake of his hand, he almost dropped the plate of roasted camel spine to the ground. Ningyu quickly pulled his robe under the table.
"Everyone..." The Great Shaman of Wei'an seemed to have finally remembered the existence of "Dragon Sacrifice" and knocked the salt shaker in front of him with a silver spoon. "The Flying Eagle Message from the Black Crystal Canyon Military Station has arrived.
After entering the temple, I am honored to announce that the two new priests have successfully passed their war priest promotion journey. I would like to take this opportunity to announce the temple's decision."
"Helen Priest can subdue a Komodo war beast this time. It is really a major event that temples across the country should be excited about. Even if the memo from the Black Crystal Canyon Military Station writes Helen as a prodigal priest, I think, I will
I will pass Helen's promotion without hesitation. The other main temples will also laugh at my incompetence to some extent because of this..." The great shaman of Wei'an looked at Helen with a smile and said something about a certain person.
A sarcastic joke about dragon sacrifice.
Immediately there was a chorus of applause and praise.
Wise, wise, and discerning...
These words are like opening a store, wholesaled from the mouths of the priests to the great shaman.
Shaman Wei'an smiled and waved gently, signaling everyone to be quiet.
"Priest Helen is still underage and has already achieved such remarkable achievements. Although the temple cannot grant her a noble fief right now, I have decided that I will send a temple knight to serve as the guardian knight of Priest Helen to protect her.
Safe." The Great Shaman Wei'an looked at Prince Richard.
The prince pulled the lapel of his clothes, shook his cloak, stood up from his seat calmly and gracefully, and frequently bowed his head to everyone around him.
"This...I...don't need it, right?" Helen was dumbfounded.
"Helen, Prince Richard is a leader among the Templars, so don't refuse anymore." Shaman Wei'an looked at the little fox with a smile on his face: "I've seen your followers too, they are too vulgar.
, it’s really not worthy of your noble status.”
"I don't think I need it." Helen's cold eyes responded to the prince's fiery enthusiasm, and her tone was stiff.
"Why?" Prince Richard was surprised.
There was silence all around, and the atmosphere was frozen.
Liu Zhenzhen laughed in the distance, he was so happy that he wanted to sing a song.
"Ahem..." The beautiful snake priest cleared her throat and spoke: "Helen is a girl. Should this be taken into consideration when the temple sends Templar knights as guardian knights?"
"What do you mean..." Shaman Wei'an was also stunned.
"Lord Qi Dan, if you don't mind, can you leave this matter to me?" The beautiful snake looked at the old model with a smile.
"This..." The Great Shaman Wei'an was also considering it, the wrinkles on his face were all squeezed together.
Prince Richard slumped down on his seat, his face turning livid, and holding the gold cup with his fingers, a violent sound of metal twisting came from the sound.
The cup was crushed by him.
Liu Zhencheng smiled proudly. The prince's eyes met his, and no one had any intention of avoiding him.
Everyone in the hall saw something was wrong with these two people.
The prince thought for a moment, threw away the cup in his hand, and spoke urgently and quietly to the beautiful snake, speaking rapidly.
"I believe in your ability to do things, Lady Cui Bexi! After all, Helen is your apprentice." The Great Shaman Wei'an finally nodded.
"As for Richard, he is old enough to receive a fief. Will your lord promulgate his fief and title?" Cui Beixian, the beautiful snake, continued to ask.
"After careful discussion, we have come up with the decision about Richard's sacrifice." The Great Shaman of Wei'an bowed to the beautiful snake: "I'm sorry, Master Cui Beiqian, because these two priests are juniors taught by you.
,So, in that meeting, out of avoidance of suspicion, I did not notify you to participate."
The beauty snake's beautiful eyebrows are gathered together.
Liu Zhenzhen noticed an ominous smell permeating the air.
"Regarding the sacrifice of Richard, after discussions among the scepter priests in the temple, they all agreed..." The Great Shaman Wei An looked at Liu Zhenshao who was standing in the distance.
Liu Zhenzhen's ears stood up like an elf.
"You have passed the War Sacrifice Trial. You have the qualifications of a War Sacrifice and can be awarded the noble white robe from now on..." The words of the Great Shaman of Wei'an made Liu Zhensha breathe a long sigh of relief.
"but......"
Liu's shocked heart was gripped again.
"Since your original dragon pet died in battle, and there is no conclusive evidence to prove that you ever had a dragon pet, our temple will not officially recognize your dragon priest title. As for your "natural soul singer"
You can prove your identity by tattooing a thorn bird pattern on your white sacrificial robe, but I hope you'd better wait until your "singing power" reaches a certain level before doing so." Great Shaman Wei'an said with a smile:
"Your title is canonized as Baron. Please note that although the title issued by the temple is not hereditary, your actions in the world still represent the solemn temple. As the God of War protects you, you will have a fief.
"
"Praise God." Liu Zhenzhen felt a sweet feeling in his heart.
"Your fiefdom is located at the forefront of the beautiful and rich Northeastern Province, Baron Richard, are you willing to accept it?"
"I am so willing. Praise God! Praise you too, my lord!"
"First of all, I want to tell you, Priest Richard, that the population of your fief must be maintained at the minimum of one thousand people, otherwise the temple will annex your fief to other nobles due to waste of resources. The inspection of your fief will be held next spring.
It is the responsibility of the Noble Oversight Council. If you can pass the assessment of the Oversight Council, then you have the responsibility to protect the safety of the people in your territory, the right to recruit soldiers, the right to collect taxes, and the gold coins earned will be at your disposal. I heard that
You are asking around about the "right of first night". I'm sorry to tell you that this right is only for slaves and not for the subjects..." There seems to be a strange smile on the face of the Great Shaman of Wei'an.
With.
Even the most unsmiling waiters in the hall laughed out loud. Several noble ladies covered their beautiful red lips with feather fans and laughed happily.
Prince Richard, who had just lost his composure, smiled heartily and looked at Liu Zhensha while laughing.
"That's great, praise God." Liu Zhenzhen looked suspiciously at the great shaman who was laughing in the distance.
Isn’t it just a population of 1,000? If you try to stump me with this, you are making a mistake, old turtle!
"The temple has placed great expectations on you, and I hope you will not disappoint us. The official name of your fiefdom is "Feleng Cui". There are no villages or city walls there for the time being, but you own a large amount of land, even if
A raven cannot fly across your territory in one day, and even a count in the kingdom cannot own such a large fief. I hope it can become rich in your hands." The Great Shaman of Wei'an pulled out a fire paint cuff from his sleeve.
With the good letter of appointment, he instructed the servants around him to give it to Liu Zhancheng.
"Feileng Cui?" The beauty snake's eyebrows were tangled together.
"Dear Cui Beiqian, Feilengcui is along the south of Sanggan River, from the red clay slope as a radius, extending forward for five hundred miles. This is the name just given by His Highness. How about it? Doesn't it sound good?"
The Great Shaman Wei An smiled.
The beautiful snake gasped.
Helen was also stunned.
There were whispers and realization laughter all around.
Liu Zhencheng understood.
Feileng Cui, the name sounds nice! It is actually the center of the Northeastern Danube Wasteland, where goblins and ogre bandits are most rampant in the interior of the wasteland, where the melting ice water from the Taimurraya Snow Mountains gathers the largest amount.
The tributary of the Sanggan River is the Sanggan River. Only to the north of this river are the Behemoth troops and villages stationed. In other words, I have been entrusted to a place where there are no people, no people, no city walls, and no protection from the Behemoth army.
He became a bachelor lord in the great wilderness.
Liu Zhenshao sneered and put away the letter of appointment.
Prince Richard looked at him and smiled proudly.
"This annoying prince seems to be laughing his head off." Avril said angrily.
"You can't laugh out your teeth, they can be knocked out." Liu Zhanzhen said coldly.
