Chapter 193: Each has its own tricks
Who are they?
This question arose in the minds of almost all the nobles in the manor, and many nobles were not ignorant of these young knights. After all, they were the elite knights who swept away the Wings of Radiance in front of the gate of the Solid Stone City, and in addition, they were young and beautiful, so it was difficult not to attract the attention of others. However, almost no one knows about these young knights. And what does it mean for them to suddenly appear here?
Could it be that these maidens are the hidden elite of the Pawood family? But why haven't you heard anything about it before? And many well-intentioned people also noticed that what was drawn on the chests of those young knights was not the lion coat of arms of the Pawood family, but the bright red serpent that appeared on another banner. This also means that these knights actually belong to the young nobleman who made the honor? But he himself didn't show up, so what was the trouble for sending these people here?
However, everyone's questions were quickly answered, because they were surprised to see that Dai Li actually led the girls in the direction of the marching ground - she was going to participate in the martial arts ceremony!!
From a standpoint, there was nothing wrong with Deli, as a member of the Pawood family, to attend this ceremony. But she didn't bring her own family's private soldiers, but brought other family's private soldiers, what kind of trouble was she going to make? You must know that the rituals of the Summer Wind Forest are extremely dangerous, so those selected nobles will bring their own family's elite strength. Because only they can be trusted, rest assured to entrust the storage of their lives. But they never imagined that someone would use another family's personal guards in such a strict and dangerous ceremony, in the eyes of the nobles. What's the difference between putting your neck on someone else's knife and asking them to kill you?!
However, before marveling at the courage of the Pawood family, the nobles were even more worried. They had all heard rumors about these maiden knights. Although I don't know what their true strength is, they can beat the elite of the Radiant Winged Knights. Its strength is obviously not comparable to those ordinary private soldiers. If Deli were allowed to take them to this ceremony, then their lives would be very difficult.
Because of this, when someone came out to block the way of the eldest lady, Dai Li did not feel strange at all.
"Hello, Miss Pawood."
The nobleman at the head wore a white wig and saluted her politely. His handsome face may have caused many girls to scream and be fascinated in other places, but unfortunately, the girls in front of him were obviously not interested in this man who had been hollowed out by the color of wine.
"What's the matter? Mr. Dalbis? ”
Dressed in a mage robe, Dai Li raised her eyebrows slightly, staring at this famous playboy in the Skar Federation with a cold gaze. on her beautiful face. The sharp light in his father's eyes made the man in front of him stiffen for a moment, but he soon spoke with a wry smile.
"Yes, on behalf of the Parliament, we would like to confirm the legal qualifications of each participant......... Of course, Miss Pawood is no exception, and I beg your pardon for being rude..............."
As he spoke, he looked at the robed girl knights behind Dale, and finally fixed his gaze on the insignia on their chests.
"Are these beautiful knights members of the Pawood family?"
Hearing this, Dai Li didn't know where the other party was coming, and she glanced around. It soon became clear that many people were paying attention to the situation here. Even the arrival of the third lord was a little ignorant, but she was also born in a noble family, so she naturally understood the current situation at a glance. Soon, Deli shook her head. Then he spoke.
"They're not members of the Pawood family."
Hearing this, the other party was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Dai Li to admit it so readily. It gave him a smug smile. Then he continued.
"In that case, I'm sorry. Miss Pawood, you should know the rules of the ceremony. We can't admit non-participants to the ..............."
"They weren't part of the Pawood family."
But before he could finish speaking, Dai Li interrupted the complacent man in front of him and continued.
"But they have the right to join me in the ceremony, because they are my protector guards!"
"What?! Protector Guard? ”
Hearing this, everyone was stunned. Sensing everyone's expressions, a faint smile appeared in the depths of Deli's eyes, and then she nodded.
"That's right, I'm a mage, so naturally I need guards. And these knights are my Protector Guard. Legally, they are my personal retinue, and they are naturally qualified to participate in this competition with me, aren't they? ”
"Yes, but ..............."
In the face of this sudden turn of God, the man in front of him didn't know what to say for a while. However, Deli didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, and quickly reached out and took a roll of parchment from the pocket of the mage's robe, unfolded it, and placed it in front of him.
"This is proof from the Mage Guild, we have concluded an agreement under the contract of magic, the contract provided by the Tower of the Star and Moon can prove the subordination between me and these noble knights, do you have any other questions?"
"This ......... But ..............."
Faced with the evidence that the other party put on the table, the man was completely speechless this time. He could tell that the magic signature on the contract was genuine. The private soldiers of the nobles can participate in the ceremony is also written in black and white in the regulations, as long as the number does not exceed the number, then it does not matter whether it is from the nobleman or the family. Moreover, in a certain way, the cronies of the aristocratic individuals are more reliable. Since the eldest lady said that these knights were subordinate to her, and had come up with a qualified contract to prove it, there was nothing they could do to stop them.
Hearing this, those nobles had also learned what was going on, and they couldn't help but be stunned one by one, exchanging glances with each other. They think a little more. With so many beautiful and powerful knights, that young man actually gave them all to Dai Li as a subordinate. Then it can be sure that there is definitely a fairly close relationship between this eldest lady and that young man. Considering that the two were about the same age, and there was information that Deli had arrived in the carriage of the young honored nobleman when she entered Solid Rock City. Many people think they may have caught the point.
This is a political marriage!
The nobles have a lot of brains, but Dai Li will not be so stupid, in fact, if she knows what these nobles think, she will only shake her head and smile bitterly. The Wizard Knight is the most powerful combat power under Jenn, how could Jenn give it to others unconditionally? In fact, as long as these nobles go to the Tower of the Star and Moon to investigate the situation about the contract, they will find that the contract signed between Dai Li and these magic knights is just a temporary contract.
As mages, most of the time they live in their own mage towers. But there are times. The mages also went out on a long trip in search of something. At such times, they will temporarily hire some Dharma protectors to protect their safety. In fact, Deli and Patilina signed such a protector contract. Because of the protection of the magic agreement, the choice of the protector is actually very simple, Deli only needs to go to the Tower of the Star and Moon, and then say that she wants to participate in a certain event and needs someone to protect her. The Tower of the Star and Moon will then issue a recruitment order, and the mercenaries and adventurer teams who see the recruitment order can apply for it. As long as they can get Deli's consent, then they can sign a temporary employment contract.
In terms of this process, Deli only needs to go to the Mage Guild and shout that I want to recruit Dharma Protectors, and then Patilina raises her hand next to her and shouts "Come I, I come. Then the two of them signed a provisional agreement under the supervision of the Mage Association, and then this paper contract was reached. Of course, the responsibility of both parties is limited to this ceremony. When the ceremony was over, their relationship was dissolved.
It's just a pity that these nobles can't go to the Mage Guild to investigate. And those spellcasters don't have a good opinion of the nobles, and they certainly won't let them investigate the contents. Take 10,000 steps back. Even if someone finds that there is something wrong with the content, the relationship between the two parties is legitimate, and in this case, at least on the surface, no one is in a position to object.
This is the aristocracy, the means are dirty and pure, and everything is carried out in accordance with the law, and you will never be able to catch the slightest trick. But Dellie won't be ashamed of this, the rules themselves will be changed, and the federal parliament can meet overnight to avoid threats from Jenn and the Templar Church, and even the sacred traditional ritual rules can be changed, what can't be done?
But the Pawood family isn't a shackled one.
Thinking of this, Daily clenched the staff in her hand and walked forward.
Unlike ordinary jousting ceremonies, Deli does not need to wait here for representatives of other families. It's not a race, everyone will be standing at the starting line waiting for the starting gun. In fact, after the review, Deli led the young knights into the forest, and they had to be in a good position before the ritual began, so that they could easily win. You must know that the terrain of the Summer Wind Forest is complex, and the projection area of the beacon is in the core part of each time, if they don't enter the forest immediately to prepare for the adventure, I'm afraid that even if it takes a few days, they may not be able to do it.
But now...............
"Is there really no problem with Mr. Jenn?"
Deli clenched the staff in her hand and asked uneasily as she gazed at the forest around her. Hearing her question, Patilina next to her snorted softly.
"Don't worry, the host will never have any problems. Hell it would be nice for those shameless stupid pigs to get out alive, we just have to do what we have to do............... Don't forget your duty, we have to take the place of the master, clean up that slut of Soros, and let him know how good we are! ”
Saying this, Patilina snorted coldly, and the spear in her hand slammed into the ground, and soon heard a muffled sound, and a large crater suddenly appeared on the ground. Seeing this scene, Dai Li stuck out her tongue lightly, and then wisely closed her mouth.
Almost at the same time, with a thunderous sound, six meteor-like rays of light pierced the sky, flew over everyone's heads, and then fell into the depths of the Summer Wind Forest. Soon, the dazzling pillars of light rose into the sky, becoming more and more eye-catching against the dark clouds.
Seeing this scene, Dai Li suddenly became much stricter, she held the staff and stood up.
"The ceremony begins."
Then, the girl whispered to herself. (To be continued......)
