A book of contract quickly signed by the great knight Hobson was sent to Raymond.
Although the terms are simple, they represent a kind of responsibility.
Similar to an adoption contract, it means that the signer will assume the responsibilities of a parent to a six-year-old girl named Staci.
Give her safety, take care of her growth, provide conditions suitable for her needs, and let her get the care she deserves before she becomes an adult.
Raymond, who held the contract book in his hand, was a little moved when he saw the conditions Hobson was willing to pay in exchange for these.
"Follower Pledge"!
According to the great knight Hobson, as long as Raymond is willing to accept and sign this contract with him to meet his condition, so that his only granddaughter Staci can have a safe guarantee before she becomes an adult, then he will Consecrate his "Follower Pledge" and become a follower of Raymond.
"" After carefully checking the book in his hand, after confirming that there were no traps on it, Raymond couldn't help asking questions. "why?"
Maintaining a humble attitude all the time, Hobson wrinkled his face and smiled wryly. "I'm getting old, I guess I have a few years to live at most, but my only granddaughter can't live without a future, so..."
Before he finished speaking, the great knight Hobson, with apprehensive and expectant eyes, expressed his attitude with his actions. Now the power of choice is in Raymond's hands.
Not in a hurry to make a decision, Raymond, with red dots flashing in his pupils, searched for information about the "Follower Oath" in the chip's database.
Soon some relevant information appeared in Raymond's sight. Looking at the descriptions such as "absolute loyalty" and "sworn to death", Raymond understood that this is a unilateral contract of loyalty, and apart from death outside. There is no power or opportunity to repent.
After pondering for a long time, and falling into the silent mountain road, only the whimpering of the wind remained, Lei Meng, who frowned, finally signed his name on the... "" contract book.
With Raymond's signature, the book of contract turned into ashes in his hands, forming two obscure powers of contract, which were shot into the bodies of Raymond and Hobson respectively. The effect of the book of contract will be After Hobson dedicated his "Follower Pledge", both parties were bound by the power of the contract.
Excitement appeared on the face full of wrinkles and vicissitudes. Then, from under the skin of the great knight Hobson's eyebrows, a shining spot of light slowly drilled out.
Hobson, who had a painful expression and was trembling all over, gradually gathered a light cluster the size of a grain of rice from between his brows, which was held in both hands by the great knight Hobson. Sent to Raymond.
This is a group of fluorescent substances that shone with soft brilliance, and it is the "follower oath" that only a great knight can offer!
This must be under the condition that the great knight himself is completely voluntary. The "Follower Pledge" that can be dedicated. In fact, it belongs to an unconditional oath of obedience, and the recipient will become the master of the devotee.
The unilateral oath of "Wizard 220 follower" represents a kind of trust and a strong constraint that can make devotees die with a smile.
There was sadness in his eyes, but there was still a hint of relief, looking at the great knight Hobson who seemed to be lost in memory. Raymond directly stuck Hobson's "Follower Pledge" on his forehead.
It was as if a drop of ice water had melted into the skin. Along with the faint cool feeling, Lei Meng seemed to have the feeling that he was the great knight Hobson kneeling in front of him on one knee. Everything about him can be mastered.
Raymond, who patted Hobson on the shoulder and helped him stand up, understood that this person will be his most loyal follower in the future, and Raymond's safety will be the only issue he needs to worry about, even if he needs to go Even if he dies, he will also face death with full enthusiasm.
Without rushing to ask about Hobson's past, Raymond first asked about his granddaughter. "How long will it take you to pick her up? Do you need me to go with you?"
Shaking his head, Hobson replied very respectfully. "Reporting to my lord, I can bring "Wizard" back with her in about five hourglasses, and I can go there alone."
After a little calculation, Raymond knew that Hobson should be able to arrive before sunset, so he simply asked the gray dwarves to find a place nearby to start camping, preparing for the arrival of Hobson and his granddaughter.
Camping in advance is a dream for gray dwarves who have just experienced a fright.
Although the gray dwarf iron head couldn't hear the conversations with Hobson clearly, the contract book brought out by the great knight Hobson and the special signs of the "follower oath" still made this quick-witted The duergar saw it.
Looking at Iron Head's envious eyes, Lei Meng knew that the great knight Hobson must have something to hide, and that his body would not wait until his granddaughter came of age.
Before communicating with Hobson, Raymond was not interested in meditating again in these few hours. Instead, he arranged for the gray dwarves like Iron Head to prepare a bonfire, prepared a sumptuous dinner, and waited patiently.
Strictness and honesty must be observed for "entertainment shows" and knights.
Sure enough, before the hour of five hourglasses, a figure was seen appearing on the mountain road from afar.
Raymond frowned and stood up. Before the figure approached the camp, Raymond had already seen his situation clearly.
The armor on his body was gone, and the weapon at his waist was gone.
Hobson, who was only wearing an ordinary robe, came to the camp soon with a little girl in his arms, but the look in his eyes was full of joy and excitement, and there was a hint of relief.
Waiting, Hobson, who quickly entered the camp, was sweating on his forehead, but Raymond, who stopped him from saluting, took the little girl in Hobson's arms first.
The round little face still has a bit of baby fat, and its outline is three-point similar to that of the great knight Hobson.
The thin and delicate little girl Staci still had a smile on her face, she seemed to be immersed in a sweet dream, and she still stuffed the index finger of her right hand in her mouth.
The gray dwarf Tie Zhu carried little Stacy into Raymond's carriage to rest, and Raymond, who took the great knight Hobson to the side, quietly waited for his explanation.
"I can't help it either," said the great knight Hobson with pain in his tone, as if he had fallen into a painful memory, panic appeared on his face. "My body won't last for a few years. If I can't arrange everything about little Stacy before I die, I won't be able to close my eyes..." (To be continued.)
