Chapter 65

What is the purpose of overthrowing the Boss?

reputation! equipment! Sense of accomplishment!

Even now that Duke has crossed over and truly entered the world of Azeroth, he still can't extinguish his player's heart.

Artifacts - not just a piece of powerful equipment, it has been sublimated into a spirit of faith.

A seemingly arrogant idea surged into Duke's mind irrepressibly: kill Medivh who is possessed by Sargeras, and snatch Atiesh!

Thinking of the wonderful feel of that magical staff and the shocking mana bonus, Duke couldn't calm down at all.

"Huh—" Duke let out a breath of foul air.

Beside him, Elizabeth Jones and the old mage Norton, who were invited to come with him, all showed concerned expressions.

"Are you okay?" they said in unison.

Duke knew that what they were asking was not him, but his relationship with Medivh.

"It'll be fine." Duke's affirmative tone gave them confidence.

Completely ignoring the gloating eyes of some nobles, Duke, led by the waiter, strode into the banquet venue with Norton and Jones.

After today, there will probably be various interpretations of this in the aristocratic circle. Duke has no interest in those political games. For a group of guys who were destined to be bloody unlucky, Duke almost ignored them, but silently asked the system elves to record their various information.

The luxurious banquet hall is slightly larger than a football field. Not only is it resplendent and magnificent, but the tall dome is full of beautiful murals. Human beings use such an artistic form to record civilization and history.

On the huge dome murals, Duke saw the seven human kingdoms, Quel'Thalas of the high elves, Ironforge of the dwarves, and Thoradin's defeat of the troll empire.

Duke's appreciation of the murals was so fascinated, but he was so anxious about Ms. Jones beside him.

"Hey, my Lord Neptune. The New Year's banquet is a very important gathering of nobles. Although I know that you have a detached status as a mage, getting along well with the nobles is beneficial to my business development and yours. I beg you, For the sake of your mage tower, at least follow me to meet some of the most important nobles."

It was an open secret that Duke made money to build the mage tower, and because of this perfect excuse, the neutral nobles felt much less against Duke. With Jones, a very popular figure among noble ladies, leading the way, the perfume has become a hot seller.

However, Duke shook his head at Jones, leaned over and said, "A shocking event happened tonight. I suggest you put away your business promotion thoughts first."

Jones' body froze suddenly.

Even with so many months of happy cooperation, she still couldn't figure out what this half-child-like youth was thinking. His thinking is detached from the ordinary, and his eyes always seem to fall on places beyond the imagination of the world.

Ms. Jones dare not disobey Duke. After all, Duke is almost her boss, and 90% of her business is related to Duke.

At this time, the messenger announced: "The King and Mrs. Lane have arrived at—"

Ryan, who was dressed in bright golden costumes, held the hand of the beautiful queen, led his pair of children, and walked boldly into the venue with the guards leading the way.

On the high platform that had already been prepared, the bright light of the huge candlestick allowed everyone to clearly see the details of every gold ornament on King Lane's body.

Ryan is all smiles, the situation in the kingdom has improved, and the return of his friend Medivh puts him in a good mood. Everyone can feel the king's elation.

"Ladies and gentlemen, all the people of the kingdom, welcome to come here. I—Lian Wrynn is very happy to host the New Year's banquet here. In the past year, the whole kingdom was considered to be in good weather, and the people's life is better than ever. better life."

"Here, I would like to introduce you grandly and thank a young man. He is the new member of our royal mage group, the new land mage, the master of the Pearl Line, the sponsor of the new Stormwind Harbor, and the sponsor of the Stormwind Kingdom's naval ships by—Duke Marcus!"

"Mr. Marcus, please come to the stage."

Ryan's outstretched palm pointed to Duke.

Duke was also a little stunned. He didn't expect that Ryan would introduce him to the entire noble class in such a grand manner. This is definitely the favor of the king.

Suddenly becoming the focus of everyone's attention, Duke was also a little flattered. His slightly opened mouth showed the tension in his heart.

"Don't be nervous, young man, you deserve it." Anduin Lothar, a handsome man, came near Duke at some point, and patted Duke on the shoulder, encouraging him to take the stage.

After Duke came to his senses, the cunning Anduin whispered, "I support you publicly for the sake of the city wall."

Duke couldn't laugh or cry.

Lothar! Can you be so snobbish! Are you thinking about how to suck blood from me next year?

In the midst of all eyes, Duke took the stage. King Lane smiled happily at Duke, patted Duke on the shoulder kindly, and then slowly drew out his golden saber with a gorgeous golden sword like an eagle spreading its wings.

"Kneel down, young man."

Kneel down? Kneeling wool?

Duke didn't react at all.

Lothar, who was still following Duke, was vigilant and whispered, "Your Majesty wants to knight you. If you want to refuse, you don't have to kneel."

Uh, does this count as a surprise attack on me?

I have traveled to this world and can't go back. I either integrate into this world or I am rejected by this world. There is no third way.

All right! Anyway, it is also a title, just kneel down.

After a brief moment of stupefaction, Duke decided to kneel down on one knee.

King Lane was very satisfied, his half-closed eyes were full of smiles, and he swung his gorgeous long sword, like a dragonfly on Duke's left and right shoulders, with a point on each side of the sword.

"Duke Marcus, I don't care where you come from, but since you are willing to serve the Kingdom of Stormwind and dedicate your courage and wisdom to the benefit of the people of the Kingdom, for the sake of the smiling faces of the people, I seal you For Sir! I hope that from now on, you will continue to do your duty faithfully and create more wealth and happiness for the kingdom and the people."

Ryan's remarks made Duke very comfortable.

"I, Duke Marcus, serve the people of Stormwind." Without anyone noticing, Duke deftly followed Lane's words, avoiding the words 'kingdom' and 'king', and all he said was Work for the people.

Ryan was very happy: "Sir Marcus, I didn't mean to squeeze you. But the life of the people in the kingdom is still difficult. I hope you can perform better in the coming year."

"I will." Duke stood up.

He could really feel the envy, jealousy and hatred cast from all directions.

To be knighted as a commoner is often promoted from the knight class only after making great military exploits. And Duke completely crossed the entire knight class and directly entered the real noble realm.

This is inseparable from the fact that he opened up territory with the Stormwind Kingdom in disguise.
