Proof of the Sun King

"Magritte, the capital and largest city of Estalia, is also the core of the entire Duchy of Magritte." Walking on the streets of Magritte, Lane moved towards Federmond and Alfredo. Reid said: "The city is the most important city in Estalia and the seat of the most powerful principality, built with a hidden natural deep-water port, the city has a world-wide reputation as a friendly port, here There are markets for all kinds of goods, attracting merchants from all over the world to trade."

"Yes, this place is the trading center of the old world, especially the many caravans that go to ocean trade." Federmond is relatively clear about Magritte's situation. The eldest son of the Duke of Sea God knows the situation here. He even After taking the conversation: "Usually the wharf here is very crowded, and the security here is very good. For many years, the Magrittes have maintained a strong force in the South China Sea and protected the trade in this sea area. They are fair and honest. Merchants, through unremitting efforts, they became rich. The Port of Tranquility is a natural fortress, and the land is carefully protected. On the two headlands of the bay, they built two strong and solid coastal defense towers to protect the port. The two forts also acted as beacons for the port."

"Although the Armada has been annihilated, Magritte still has a relatively large green water navy to protect the port security. Their main opponents are the pirates from Tyrell's 'Pirate Principality' Sartosa. It is the pirates represented by the daughter of Mannan, Elenaza-Salt Hate." Federmond continued: "This is the focal point of the famous trade route 'Silk Road', merchants from the Far East Aurora Here they sell silk and spices, and our Brittanian nobles are the main buyers."

"Yes, Aurora merchants." Ryan nodded. It was rare to see some Aurora merchants in the old world. Usually, it was calculated in ten years. He didn't want to see either.

After seeing the portraits of the Aurora people's appearance, he completely gave up the idea of ​​seeing the Aurora people.

In addition to the dark elves, Ryan, Federmond, Veronica, and Alfred were escorted by the Imperial Army and walked down the streets of Magritte.

Magritte has a population of about 35,000, including the suburbs and floating population around the city, there are as many as 70,000. The streets are very crowded, and the major squares are full of hawkers and merchants selling things. The people here Enjoying the freedom and sweet air, they are indifferent to the threat of chaos and greenskin, and it is the tradition of the Magritte to move leisure and entertainment to the street, singing and dancing, art, street performance, street sketching, Magritte A special person is to spend his days in endless entertainment, day, night or dawn.

"The people here are really..." The handsome and firm-looking Federmond is the most popular object of Magritte. The Holy Grail badge on the chest of the Holy Grail Knight and a silk dress deeply betrayed his identity. Those young girls playing in the square came to chat with enthusiasm, used fans to say "fan language" to show their love, and sent many small gifts.

At the end of April, the scorching sunshine was enough for the women here to change into clear short-sleeved dresses. Facing the siege of a large number of girls, Federmond, who had never wavered in the Holy Grail Crusade, behaved quite unbearably. Adapting and scrambling, naturally also got a good impression.

This is how people are. Federmond looks like a noble, rich and handsome man. Being a little shy is not a deduction item, but a bonus item.

Lane is actually even more likable. The god-chosen champion of the fairy in the lake naturally has a heroic aura that is not angry and arrogant and a sense of majesty belonging to a superior, but this Holy Grail Knight is obviously famous The gorgeous Veronica was holding his arm, warning all the women in the square with a wolf-proof look.

This man belongs to me!

As for the sunny and enthusiastic appearance, the blond Alfred is the worst one. The Templars were injured in the war with the vampires and made him limp. The women of Estalia and Like all women, they don't like lame people.

The imperial ambassador was a middle-aged man who looked in his forties. He also wore Estalia's dress as the locals did, and led the way for Ryan and others: "The Oriental Palace is right in front, Lord Ryan, Lord Federmond, There you will meet Amancio Perez, the leader of the Estalian Merchant Union, and we will arrange for you to have dinner with him."

"Where's the big mentor?" Ryan asked in a low voice.

"The big tutor will arrive halfway through the dinner." The imperial ambassador's attitude was respectful to Ryan, but he was quite arrogant to the people here, because in Estalia, his back was powerful Great Empire: "It's just past noon now, please take a break, or you can stroll around nearby."

"Okay." Ryan nodded, and the imperial ambassador opened a large suite in the most advanced state guest hotel for Ryan and others.

The one who came out to greet Ryan and others was a very beautiful waitress. She looked about twenty years old, with a pair of brown eyes that were very smart, and her long black-brown hair was very seductive against her hot facial features, slender and slender. The black eyebrows made her look heroic, and a short dress made her slender and hot body show in front of Ryan and others. The waitress bent over and saluted and smiled charmingly at Ryan and others: "Please come with me, from Earl of Lane of Brittany, Baron Fredmond, and this gentleman and lady."

"Oh oh oh!" Alfred's eyes lit up, and the Templars took the initiative to chat up: "Hello, this lady, I am Alfred, the Templar of the Justice Church."

"Sorry, Mr. Alfred." The waitress smiled politely: "I'm sorry."

"Am I lucky enough to know your name?" Alfred immediately started the conversation: "I don't know what to call you."

"My name is Claudia."

The Templars chatted with the maid, and Ryan smiled playfully and gave Veronica a wink: "Alfred's spring is here~"

"Just take care of yourself!" Veronica gave Ryan an angry look: "What does Alfred's spring have to do with you?"

"I just sigh..." Ryan quickly shrugged and admitted defeat.

"It's not allowed to sigh!" Veronica stared at Ryan fiercely. The turkey banquet on the New Year's Eve represented the establishment of the Lane's Backyard Alliance. They agreed to compete internally and unite against others.

"I'm not interested either, Veronica, I prefer you like this." Ryan had to emphasize, Veronica took his arm, the witch knew Ryan and knew that Ryan didn't lie, so she let it go took him.

Veronica knew that Ryan's aesthetics were obviously slightly different from those of normal people. The waitress in front of her called Claudia had a hot figure, with a bulging front and back, hot eyes, thick lips, and a high nose bridge. This is normal. The big beauties in the eyes of people are just not ugly in Ryan's opinion. He prefers more delicate and sweet looks like Sulia and Veronica.

The waitress brought Ryan and the others to their room and opened the door: "Then, I'm here. Please rest well. If you have anything or need, you can come to the front desk to find me."

"Okay." Ryan said he knew, and the waitress waited in place for about ten seconds. Seeing that Ryan didn't make a sound, she withdrew in disappointment.

"Hey~" Ryan shook his head with a wry smile. He turned his head and asked, "Any of you interested in going out for a walk before dinner?"

"Ah~ my good friend, I feel like I'm in love." Alfred said a little bit nervously.

"Heh~ man." Veronica couldn't stop sneering, and Witch Garland said directly: "I'm going to take a nap, Ryan, go out for a walk."

After that, Veronica kissed Ryan on the face and went back to the room to rest.

"Let me go out for a walk with you, Your Excellency Ryan, I also have something to ask you for advice." Federmond nodded, the Holy Grail Knight is basically not tired.

"Alfred?" Ryan turned to look at his childhood playmate: "Your foot hurt..."

"I think I love her dear friend..."

"You understand love again?!" Ryan only felt that the blood vessels in his temple were about to explode, and he complained with black lines all over his head.

"But don't you think, she's pretty? Oh, those eyes, that figure, and the look she had when she received us..." Alfred muttered to himself in a trance.

"Fedmond?" Ryan was too lazy to pay attention to him, he said directly to Federmond.

"Huh?" The Holy Grail Knight also had a sore face.

"Are you urinating yellow?"

"what?"

"Wake him up, okay? Please."

"...Pardon my refusal."

There was a strange silence in the room. Looking at Alfred, who was in a hurry, Ryan and Federmond looked at each other with helpless expressions on their faces. Finally, Ryan decided to speak: "Alfred?"

"What's wrong?" The Templar immediately thought of something, and he immediately got up from the sofa: "Ryan, good friend, I knew you would be willing to help me, right?! You know women best, hurry up and teach me How am I?"

"...A'Fu, what I want to say is that if you want to pursue that waitress, hurry up, otherwise if she changes shifts, maybe you will never see each other again." Lane's words made the Templars feel as if When he woke up from the dream, he sang a magic trick directly in the room. A golden glow illuminates the room.

Eight-ring magic, Lay on Hands.

Relying on the effect of Lay on Hands, Alfred promised that he would not be lame for the time being, and then the Templars walked out with some unsteady footsteps.

...I am the dividing line of unsteady feet...

Thirty minutes later, Magritte, Central Garden.

Here is a sea of ​​flowers, composed of pomegranate flowers and carnations. The garden is full of jugglers performing acrobatics and bards singing heroic deeds, as well as people who can paint a self-portrait for tourists on the spot with just one gold coin. Painters, ladies and children play here, gentlemen, merchants and nobles whisper in the garden, everyone here is well-dressed, full of luxurious decadence, there are many guards at the gate of the garden, any appearance is not up to standard People who are not allowed to enter will be kicked out, and a sign stands at the gate "Beggars and dogs are not allowed in".

So all day long listening to the people of the southern countries advocating freedom, in fact, after seeing their "freedom" with their own eyes, only to realize that it is not the case at all. The Empire and Bretons like to ridicule the southern countries' "freedom".

Near the pool in the garden, Ryan and Federmond walked in tandem.

"Your Excellency Ryan, you don't seem to be very optimistic about Mr. Alfred's pursuit of that waitress?" Federmond first raised the topic.

"Yes, I'm not very optimistic." Ryan shook his head: "Waitresses have never been ideal targets, especially those who work in this kind of state hotel, Federmond, if it's your pursuit, yes, Alfred, no."

"Why, can you tell me the reason?" Frederick was also troubled by marriage. Duke Bodrick chose Eva, the granddaughter of Bethmond, Duke of Bastogne, but the Holy Grail Knight himself I don't want to get married so soon, and I'm a little bit resistant to marrying a woman I haven't met a few times.

"The vision is different." Ryan closed his eyes, and he smelled the scent of carnations: "Think about it, Federmond, as long as the waitress at the State Guest House works at the front desk for one year, all she can touch is who?"

Federmond understood immediately after thinking about it, and the Holy Grail Knight walked to Ryan's side: "There is no doubt that the great nobles of the human kingdom, the mercenary captains and adventurers with great fame, the great men who master several trade routes, Treasure merchants, and elves and dwarves."

"That's right, the waitresses, especially the waitresses in the state hotel, often have this problem, that is, they have seen too much and their vision is too high." Ryan turned his head to look at Federmond, and he made a point. The eldest son of the Duke of Bodrick: "It's fine if it's you, but Alfred is just a Templar of the Knights Templar of the Justice Church, and he doesn't even have a fief, so this waitress can see Alfred. The possibility of Red is not impossible, but it is slim."

"Even though she herself has no other conditions worth mentioning besides being beautiful, she still thinks that Mr. Alfred is not up to her standards?" Federmond fully understood what Ryan meant, he smiled: "This is too harsh already."

"But that's the reality, we won't and can't criticize her, because it's her freedom, I can only say I'm not optimistic." Ryan nodded: "This is called the threshold, because of the reception of various big people all the year round, this kind of waitress's The emotional threshold is already very high, and it is difficult to impress them with flowers and dinner, because they have seen too many, and winning the duel conference is almost the same."

"It's like Marquis Surya won the knight's meeting and then pursued you?" Federmond suddenly made a joke: "Everyone said that, the love between Marquis Surya and you was at that time. ."

"Hahaha~" Ryan laughed loudly: "You understand how I won Sulia's heart. What I want to say is that a wife like Sulia is worth a lot of effort to pursue."

"You are always admirable, Your Excellency Ryan." Federmond pondered, and the Holy Grail Knight learned a lot while acting with Ryan: "If it was me, maybe I would have already worked with Estalia. The war is over, I won’t spend a whole day rushing to Magritte just to have dinner with the nobles here, if it was me before, I would feel that I lost the Seagod Trident…”

"There is nothing wrong with you, and the truth is on your side, so you can get back what you have by force?" Lane leaned against the garden railing, and he said to Federmond with a smile.

"But you taught me that sometimes the problem is not so simple." Federmond nodded, and he said with some frustration: "It is always painful to deal with the local nobles, especially when I think I am the victim. ."

"But it's necessary." Ryan raised his chin. He looked at Magritte's prosperous market and wide streets, as well as the Goddess of War Square and the goddess statue on the square in the distance~www.wuxiamtl.com~in the afternoon The sun and breeze, as well as the scenery in the garden, are refreshing and make people relax involuntarily.

"That's right...it's necessary, if it weren't for you, I think I would have a conflict with Silva, Duke of Billy Barry, a conflict with a vampire, and a conflict with the Great Alchemist of the Empire here, and finally a conflict with the war. The Church of the Goddess and the Magritte Knights ripped apart." Federmond shook his head: "But you not only perfectly let us find the culprit, but also both sides, in Billy Barry, you successfully got the seat With the help of Duke Ilva, you were warmly received by the Great Alchemist in front of the imperial team, and in Magritte, you are the VIP.”

"Fedmond, listen, I will only say these words once." Ryan looked at no one around and finally decided to speak: "In a complex environment, we have to figure out who is our enemy and who is is our friend, who we should fight for."

"If they belong to the enemy, we must resolutely knock them down to the ground and wipe them out completely. If they belong to our friends, we must tie them to our chariot and advance and retreat with us. Those who can be won, we must try our best to win, or at least we can't. Let them throw them at the enemy."

"For thousands of years, the system established by the order is a place where individuals need to suppress and restrain their own personality. Within the system, personal likes and dislikes are second, and the most taboo is many young people who consciously hold their hands in their hands. The truth, challenge the authority." Ryan said earnestly: "Whether they really have the truth or not, the outcome of rashly challenging the authority in this case will never be good, we need to wait for the opportunity."

"So when is the right time?" Federmond humbly asked for advice, the Holy Grail Knight in his fifties was like a junior in front of the God's Chosen Champion in his thirties.

"That is……"
