The box was opened, and familiar armor and a standard knight's sword appeared in front of Dean—

"Isn't this armor the one at the auction?"

Looking at the familiar armor, Dean showed his surprise just right.

"Didn't I say before that I have quite a few similar armors in my collection? It's one of them! The Marquis de Vauban looked at the surprised Dean and couldn't help smiling, apparently very satisfied with Dean's expression; Therefore, he took out another item with great interest and said, "This is a standard knight's longsword that also reduces weight and speeds up the swing of the sword—I originally wanted to transfer that frost sword to you, Dean, but the messenger of Del County has already returned the sword to Count Del!" ”

As he spoke, a trace of regret appeared on the face of the Marquis de Vauban .

"I'm already flattered by this!"

Dean waved his hand in gratitude.

The weight-reducing steel armor was sold at auction for a high price of two thousand five hundred kimptons, although it was a little inflated, but its true value was also around one thousand five hundred kimptons in Dean's opinion, even if it was placed in a truly prosperous place like the Emerald Capital, there was no problem in selling it for one thousand two or three kimptons.

As for the other long sword, its value naturally cannot be lower than this armor, especially after the Marquis of Vauban is simple and simple, and Dean's assessment is even more so.

The two weapons and armor with a combined cost of nearly 3,000 Kimpton cannot be ignored for Dean.

As for the Frost Magic Sword in the mouth of the Marquis de Vauban ?

Maybe he really asked, but took it as compensation?

Let's not talk about the king who is also the king of Delshire. The value of the magic sword alone. Dean understood. These were just kind words from the Marquis de Vauban .

After all, in terms of the value of the magic sword itself, I am afraid that the three items sent by the Marquis of Vauban at this moment would be several times higher.

Although Dean has indelible credit, but giving tens of thousands of Kimptons as a reward at one time, I am afraid that the Emerald royal family will not be able to do it, let alone the Marquis of Vauban .

Even so, though. Dean also expressed his gratitude.

After all, his sword had been completely reimbursed in the previous battles, and armor was one of the purposes of his trip to Vauban - in battle, the preservation of weapons and armor was indispensable for anyone.

And the Marquis de Vauban was able to give these two gifts as compensation; It is enough to show that the Marquis Vauban has a heart.

You know, his previous action was not a compensation for these gifts, but just to help the Jade Grand Duke.

To put it simply. Whether it's a knighthood or a gift of compensation. It was all a surprise for Dean.

And in the face of such an unexpected joy, can Dean still have any dissatisfaction?

"This is the contract of a shop in the lower city, specializing in spices and furs, and the steward there has already sent someone to inform you, Dean you can send someone to take over at any time!"

The Marquis de Vauban pulls out a piece of parchment with the seal of the Marquis of Vauban and the imprint of magic, and when Dean signs his name, the contract is apparently in effect - Dean has his own estate in Vaubant.

It may not be very large, but it is undoubtedly another proof of his status as a lord.

Without the euphemism, if there was no more estate, the title of Lord was obviously unworthy of the name, and the attempt to enter the high society of the Emerald would only bring ridicule - in fact, Dean's plan contained details of the purchase of an estate in Vauban City; However, the arrangement of the Marquis Vauban saved him.

Perhaps, this property is not very valuable, but it also shows once again that the Marquis Vauban does things well.

At least, the old fox's assessment will not be wrong.

"Lord Marquis, the battle in the castle before ......"

After Dean expressed his gratitude again, he directly led the topic to the previous battle - with Dean's appearance at that time, Dean naturally had the right to know.

The Marquis de Vauban never denied this, and after he gestured to Baron Jandu, he immediately went out of the door and dutifully acted as a guard.

"There are some things that are not suitable for Zhan to know!"

Turning around, the Marquis of Vauban explained to Dean with a slightly wry smile, and his frank appearance made people feel good.

"Something is always like this and can't be avoided!"

Dean was noncommittal about such a half-truth, but nodded approvingly on the surface.

"I have more than one spy by my side, and after I have set up two traps, one true and one false, I have stepped into the real trap - when you appeared, my wolf appearance was one of the few in my life...... The only thing that makes me happy is that I was lucky enough to run into you, Dean! ”

As he spoke, the Marquis de Vauban thanked Dean again, and Dean naturally waved his hand again and again, and then, at all, did not linger on the topic of gratitude for a long time - as for how to get along with these people in high positions, Dean is quite clear that when the other party has already given compensation, if he still holds on to his 'merits', then it will only make the other party feel bad, far less good than a lump sum and make the other party feel good.

"Those spies?"

Dean asked with a stern face.

"In addition to the confirmed one, the other one has been killed by you, and as for whether there is any left, I am still investigating thoroughly!"

The Marquis Vaubana's face was also extremely stern, and his tone was even more cold—obviously, the old Marquis was killing at the moment.

After all, the previous war not only almost discredited his honor, but even Vauban County almost fell into the hands of others, and such hatred can naturally only be washed away by the blood of the enemy.

"What about the sure?"

Dean was just right to show his anger, as if he was hating the same enemy.

"It's Madel! But don't worry, Dean, the guy is dead - he set the guy on fire after Shiva led men to surround the guy's house. Self. Burned, the corpses are charred! ”

When the Marquis of Vauban saw Dean's hatred of the enemy, he couldn't help but chuckle lightly, and said in a very relaxed tone.

However, Dean's heart is full of -

He's dead?

Dean was a little unconvinced.

How could a spy leader who had been lurking in Vauban for so many years and had spent almost all of his energy on Vauban not leaving himself a way back except for a lot of gains?

Unlike other people who walk in the shadows, spies are a special kind of people, who are sometimes able to die generously, like real dead soldiers, and sometimes they are weak and cowardly.

And according to Dean's contact with that Madel, the temptation to start gathering men in the face of a letter is obviously not like the first one.

Therefore, even if you face a silver-level knight, you should be able to retreat with your whole body.

After all, Shiva, the silver knight, is well known in the upper echelons of Vauban County, and it is impossible for the other party not to take it into account if he plans it.

Otherwise, Dean would have to doubt the other party's credentials as a spy.

Trick to death!

Almost instantly, Dean had such a guess.

And looking at the smiling Marquis de Vauban on his face, Dean did not say his guess - something that Dean obviously could not speak.

What's more, Dean didn't believe that the old fox would have any suspicions.

didn't say it, it's just that the other party is still confirming, or...... I don't want him to be involved.

As for why?

You know, he is now the head of the Knights of Tyre Commander Fecharon, not a subordinate of the Marquis of Vauban , in an emergency, the county king mobilizes the armed forces of his subordinate territory, which is understandable, but this does not mean that everything can be mobilized - his own face, and the thoughts of the subordinate lords, are all things that the county kings need to consider.

And in this regard, no matter what the Marquis de Vauban had in mind, Dean naturally had no opinion.

After all, it would be more beneficial for him to act alone!

"That's a cheap guy!"

Dean said.

"Well, that's right!"

The Marquis de Vauban nodded, and then, staggering the subject, pointed to the potion of the 'knight's baptism', and said, "Dean, your 'knight's baptism' is scheduled for a week's time-I have asked the doctor, and you can really recover at that time...... As much as I would like you to rest for two more days, Bishop de Holl is an unquestionable man, and he is just as famous for his rigidity as he is for his 'justice'! ”

A hint of sarcasm appeared in the words of the Marquis de Vauban .

Dean didn't say anything strange about this.

Since the appearance of the royal power and the divine power on the big stage of Goddez at the same time, the two sides have always been hostile, and it may seem good on the surface, but in essence, there is an undercurrent.

At the very least, the shadow of the Divine Religion has appeared to a greater or lesser extent in the major events that have taken place in various countries.

"In a week, I'll be there on time!"

Dean replied.

Although Dean's hatred for the Divine Cult is as hot as a flame, but now is not the time to show it, Dean's strength has already decided that he can only hide.

"Well, when the time comes, as one of the hosts, I will also participate in ......"

The Marquis de Vauban nodded.

The rest of the conversation was more trivial than that, and the Marquis de Vauban seemed to be an erudite elder and chatted with Dean.

Unlike the casual chatter with the Emerald Archduke, Dean could clearly feel the Marquis of Vauban with a purpose—a test of his knowledge.

After all, the aspects involved in the topic have long gone beyond small talk.

As for why?

Dean naturally knows it.
