It is the middle of winter, and heavy snowflakes are falling, covering the vast land with a thick white quilt.
The biting cold wind whizzed past like a knife, causing the snowflakes on the ground to dance.
Pompeii is located in the south of the Kingdom of Prussia. It is not like spring all year round, but it is rare to see snow even in winter, so this heavy snowfall is very rare.
In the territory, both serfs and civilians were hiding tightly in their homes, closing doors and windows, lighting fireplaces, and using all possible means to stay warm to survive the cold weather.
Inside Pompeii Castle.
The heavy snow dyed the entire castle white. Many servants and guards in the city braved the heavy snow to carry out cleaning work. If such a heavy snow is not cleaned, it will be a mess after the snow.
Most of the rooms in the castle were cold. But the hall was as warm as spring. The fireplace was filled with dry wood, and the flames were burning brightly, dispelling the cold.
The old butler Feren stayed in the fireplace, adding firewood to the fireplace from time to time.
Lord Sol was sitting on the only chair in the hall with a solemn expression. Mrs. Sophie, William, and Mary were also there.
In addition to Pompeii's family, there are also his aide Qiao Xiu, knight Magellan, Magellan's eldest son Xiu Xiuya, and, by the way, Luther's little maid Maya.
Only Luther was not there.
What is Luther doing?
He was in his room, attacking the realm of knights.
That's right, it has been almost a year since Luther traveled to the Kingdom of Prussia. Luther reached the realm of knights, which is almost the same as Old Sol's judgment.
After a year of hard training, Luther finally reached this day.
A knight is of course a vital fighting force for the Pompeii clan. But Luther is different because he represents the next generation of the Pompeii family.
The fire that represents the Pompeii family will continue to burn.
As for the attack on the realm of knights, there is a certain probability of failure. Although the probability of failure is a bit small, the Pompeii family is still worried.
Time passed by minute by second. The faces of everyone present became more and more solemn. Until there was a sound of footsteps, everyone's hearts suddenly tightened.
Involuntarily, he raised his head and looked towards the second floor. Amidst the sound of crisp footsteps, Luther walked down the stairs.
His face is rosy and very healthy. His face is filled with joy. Compared to a year ago, his body is much stronger. Although he is not as strong as Old Sol, he still gives people a sense of reliability.
.
With his golden hair, if old Saul is a lion in his prime, then Luther is a young lion.
"How's it going?" When Old Sol saw Luther, he breathed out a sigh of relief, because Old Sol could tell that Luther should have been promoted successfully.
But this matter was really too big, so Old Sol couldn't help but ask.
Everyone else also had expressions of concern on their faces.
"Dad, I succeeded." Luther smiled slightly, and a ray of light immediately appeared all over his body. This ray of light was slightly yellow, looming, like a candle in the wind, and seemed to be extinguished at any time.
As a newly promoted knight, the fighting spirit in Luther's body was pitiful in terms of both quality and quantity.
But fighting spirit actually exists.
The yellow fighting spirit represents the breath of the earth. A heavy breath blows towards your face.
"Hahahahahaha! Okay, okay, my Pompeii family has a successor." Old Sol laughed, as happy as a child.
Everyone present looked excited, it was really great.
"Hey, Qiao Xiu. When this heavy snow passes, gather all the people in the territory and have a carnival. I want to tell all the people in the Pompeii territory that my old Sol's heir, Luther, Pompeii was promoted to a knight.
By the way, we must also pardon the criminals and tell them that thanks to Master Luther, they are free."
Old Sol was excited as never before and announced generously.
It is unimaginable that this rigid, rigorous, calm, and rock-like lion seems to be a child at this moment.
heir.
For nobles, nothing is more important than this.
"Yes." Qiao Xiu also responded with a smile.
If it weren't for the heavy snow, Old Sol would have been eager to have a carnival.
The heavy snow did not last long, and the sky became clear the next day. After Old Sol's announcement, and under the auspices of Qiao Xiu, the entire Pompeii territory fell into a carnival.
Look.
The Pompeii family, which has inherited the blood of ancient counts for many generations, is about to welcome the next generation.
Luther, Master Pompeii.
The entire carnival lasted for three days and was very lively.
Three days later.
The sky is extremely clear, and the sun is constantly emitting heat, dispelling the coldness of the earth. The traces of the heavy snow three days ago have completely disappeared.
After winter, comes spring.
Young buds are beginning to grow on the branches.
On this day, the newly promoted knight, Master Luther Pompeii, took his personal attendant Shushua and a team of ten elite guards to begin patrolling his territory.
Luther was riding a horse, wearing well-fitting clothes, black riding boots, and carrying a cross sword. His whole person exuded a capable aura.
Xiu Xiuya's dress was similar to Luther's, but he was slightly behind Luther, revealing his identity as an attendant.
The other guards were wearing white armor and holding spears, surrounding the two of them.
This time when he went out, Luther had a clear purpose.
During this year, Luther relied on hard training to become a junior knight. To put it simply, as a time traveler.
Luther actually didn't find his golden finger, and he behaved like an ordinary native.
It really loses the face of the time traveler.
Since he didn't find his golden finger, Luther decided to start from the side to increase his strength.
If Luther was just a knight from a commoner family, it would be difficult to climb up. But fortunately, Luther was the eldest son of the Pompeii family and the future heir to the Pompeii territory.
In the entire Pompeii territory, there were nearly 2,000 people, as well as 100 guards, as well as two knights, Old Sol and Magellan, and Xiu Xiuya, who was about to become a knight's personal attendant.
Luther decided to start from here.
To put it simply, it means farming, developing territory, and growing slowly.
If possible, try to be as obscene as possible.
hey-hey.
Luther did not take action until a year later. That was because of the tradition of the Pompeii family. Only the eldest son of a knight was qualified to manage the territory.
Of course, this qualification still needs to be granted by Old Saul. Obviously, as the eldest son of the Pompeii family, Old Saul was very happy for Luther to join the Pompeii family and readily agreed.
When Luther proposed to inspect the territory, ten guards were sent to protect Luther.
Even though these ten elite warriors combined are not as powerful as Luther in combat.
