"Sir Richard, I will see your Majesty later. You must remember what I just said."
"Um"
At this time, Richard was following the palace people in the maze-like palace. Zebul and others, as Richard's attendants, could only stay in the square outside the palace.
This is a rule, and of course Zebul and others cannot violate it. Anyway, Richard is not weak, and he has a killer weapon like an angel necklace, so he usually won't be in any danger.
Richard followed the palace people through a long corridor. Both sides of the corridor were lined with pretty maids.
The Golden Dragon Kingdom does not have a tradition of using eunuchs. The attendants in the palace are all women.
The menial work was done by strong women. Except for the knights of the Golden Palace who were on duty at night, the ordinary guards only stayed outside the palace, which was the area where Zebul and the others could stay.
Richard could only come in because of Ren's summons.
However, it is not these pretty maids that Richard has been observing. Although these maids are not bad in appearance, they are still a few steps behind Messiah. Richard is now very loyal to Messiah.
What really concerned him was the architecture inside the palace.
The style of Greek columns and glazed tiles is outrageous, as well as the combination of the gallery eaves, a strong style of combining Chinese and Western styles.
Moreover, the feeling of this building is not a natural combination. Instead, it seems that the craftsmen forcibly changed the style under some order, but the person who gave the order was half-assed.
The palace has created such a magical appearance. This group of people have seen it for so many years and are used to it. They will not have such a strong sense of disobedience as Richard.
Or maybe they never knew that this building was the style of another cultural system?
"Your Majesty, Lord Richard has arrived."
Richard couldn't help but think for too long, and the maid quickly took him to the entrance of a palace.
"come in."
A very magnetic voice came from the hall.
"Master Richard, please come in."
The maid on the side reminded softly that Richard had already carried his body and stepped into the hall.
It is said to be a palace, but it is actually a larger room. The room is beautifully decorated and dotted with some plants.
It looks more like a place of daily life,
After all, the spacious and bright halls of the majestic palace are for people to see. If you really want to live, a room that is too big will not be very comfortable to live in.
"His Majesty!"
Following the previous maid's instructions, Richard knelt down on one knee and saluted Ren, who was sitting on the chair in the middle.
"Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Of course, Richard could not be treated like Thor. Renn did not move, but just asked Richard to stand up.
After getting up, Richard could finally take a closer look at the current leader of the kingdom, the most powerful man in the known human world.
Renn's appearance is similar to Thor's, but he looks slightly younger than Thor.
Like Messiah, she had golden hair but did not grow it long. She was also observing Richard with twin blue pupils.
"He is indeed a man of extraordinary valor, as if he could accomplish such great feats."
Ren sat on the chair and observed Richard for a while before praising him.
On the other hand, Richard felt a little bit beautiful. Although Ren was simply praising him for being handsome, Richard had heard this kind of words thousands of times since he was a teenager.
To be exaggerated, with Richard's appearance and body, if he was not restrained, he would be at least as good as Liu Dacai if he engaged in prostitution in the royal capital. He was tired of hearing people praise him.
But Ren's praise is different. First, Ren is a king and his status is different from others. One praise from such a person is more effective than 10,000 praises from ordinary people.
Another thing is that this is Richard's chosen father-in-law after all. If he praises him, he will at least be affirmed. His initial impression should be pretty good.
"But you are so brave! You dare to seduce my daughter just a few days after coming to the capital!"
"I dare not, I really like Messiah."
Richard took advantage of the situation and knelt down half-kneeling again.
In fact, the first half of what Richard said is false, and the second half is true.
Dare must be dared. When Richard faced Ren, he didn't even feel as nervous as an ordinary person would when meeting the king.
He was very relaxed. After all, if he wanted to, it would be very easy for him to squeeze the angel necklace in his arms and make a man angry with blood splashing five steps. Even the ultimate force in the empire, the Dragon Knight of Zhenguo, he was sure to fight against.
fight,
There's nothing to be nervous about when facing the king, but you still have to keep a submissive attitude. Long Aotian's attitude of being in the air every second of the day is undesirable.
Richard just has strength and confidence, but he is not stupid.
"Okay, get up."
Of course, Renn didn't really want to ask Richard about his crime. If he was really dissatisfied, he would have told Richard to stay away.
Richard was specially called here before the ceremony, not only because Richard himself was the protagonist of the ceremony, but also because the father-in-law looked after his son-in-law.
"Tell me how you did it."
"Well, I was in the library that day..."
"I asked you to tell me how to kill the ogre priest!"
Ren's eyes widened and he seemed to be angry all over the place.
Richard had to face-to-face with Ren Jiang about how he got his cabbage, which was like shrimp and pig heart.
"Ahem, I will lead the elite..."
Some details in the battle report were unclear, so Richard concealed some details that were difficult to describe about those days of battle and described them to Ren again.
Ren was silent for a moment after listening.
Then he asked:
"How many knights are there in your army?"
Ren himself is also a master of the knight level. The king of the Golden Dragon Kingdom will never be a waste who is better than the hands of the women in the palace.
The key point of the matter was grasped at once.
"More than fifty people."
We couldn't hide this matter, and there was no need to hide it. Richard answered honestly and gave a true number.
"It's not easy either!"
Renn is also a person who knows soldiers. He knows how difficult it is to accurately find and eliminate Grugesh's camp even if there are a lot of strong men in a long-distance attack in a wilderness.
This kind of thing has almost abnormal requirements on the elite level and investigation capabilities of the army.
Even if they take out the most elite members of the Golden Dragon Forbidden Army and match them with equally strong men, without dispatching dragon knights, it will definitely be difficult for them to reach the level of Richard.
"Dang, when..."
The big bell in the palace suddenly rang at this time. This is a big bell that is only rung when there are major festivals or celebrations.
This bell is a reminder that the celebration is about to begin, so the nobles should hurry up and get ready.
"Your Majesty, it's almost time."
At this time, the waiter outside the door also lowered his head and walked in cautiously, reminding Ren of the time.
"Um"
Ren nodded and did not embarrass the waiter. He stood up and looked at Richard who was still half kneeling on the ground respectfully. He said angrily:
"Get up, why are you still kneeling?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Richard also stood up carefully and naturally followed Ren and walked out.
Renn didn't say much, it seemed like it should be so normal,
Plan passes.
…
Inside the palace, the headquarters of the First Banner Regiment of the Forbidden Army
The First Banner Regiment of the Forbidden Army, which was originally transferred to the palace on the grounds of serving as a guard of honor, still shows no sign of being dispatched.
Although five thousand people huddled in a corner of this huge palace city is not inconspicuous, it should not be forgotten.
"Master Flag Captain, what is going on?"
The troops were not issued corresponding ceremonial armor, and it didn't look like they were serving as a ceremonial team. Now everyone was carrying fighting equipment. Not to mention these senior officers, even ordinary soldiers felt something was wrong.
At this moment, a special envoy came to the station holding a token.
"His Majesty Ren has an order, the First Banner Regiment of the Guards will immediately...ah!"
A long sword was inserted from the chest of the special envoy, and blood rushed directly to the faces of everyone on the conference table...
