Chapter 179, Arriving in Pordero

The young knight in front of him was really handsome, even more handsome than Ryan.

He is full of heaven, his face is like a crown of jade, and his blue eyes look particularly sincere, which can make people feel good in an instant. There is a faint magic in his words, which makes the guards and Katzenberg feel at ease almost immediately. Believe what he said.

What's more important is that the aura on his body is faint, and the blood is overflowing. It is obvious that he has just advanced to the legendary stage, and the realm is unstable, so the blood in his body overflows uncontrollably.

The guards subconsciously felt that it must be a pleasure to have such a young, handsome and charming young knight with them, and they agreed almost immediately.

Only Ryan was calm. He first looked at the young knight named Matthew Budd funny, and then looked at the sign on the roadside.

Thirty kilometers away from Bodleix.

"Uh...Mr. Matthew Bard, it's only 30 kilometers away from Bodleix. There are outposts and hotels along the way. I don't think we need to go together?" Ryan declined the offer lightly. A request from a young knight: "This is not a wild place. We have family members here, so it is not convenient to travel with us. Please forgive me, Mr. Matthew Budd."

"Aha~ I was a little abrupt, please forgive me, Holy Grail Knight." The smile on the young knight's face froze, and he said very sincerely: "Sorry, I didn't understand the situation."

"It's okay. If it's just the two of us, of course I'd like to be together, but it's not convenient now." Ryan looked regretful on his face, but the tone of refusal was quite obvious: "I think Mr. Matthew Bard can definitely meet A team of knights who are willing to be with you..."

"No, no, I'd better find a place to rest!" Matthew Bud looked cheerful and lively, and didn't seem to mind the matter at all: "It's getting dark soon, it's time to rest!"

After finishing speaking, the young knight didn't pester him anymore, he turned his horse's head and ran towards the nearby hotel.

"Let's keep going and wait until the next hotel to rest." Ryan signaled everyone to move on.

"Okay, my Baron." No one dared to resist the order of the Holy Grail Knight, especially when Ryan's prestige was growing.

After walking for a while, Ryan suddenly said to his butler: "Aren't you surprised why I refused the request of the young knight to go with him? He looks about my age, and he is also very strong and polite. .”

"Indeed, my baron, you must have your reasons, right?" Katzenberg said.

"Yes, I have my reasons." Ryan nodded, he lowered his head and pursed his mouth: "It's just too perfect, that's why I feel strange."

"strangeness?"

"Well, Katzenberg, don't you think? A knight-errant, not a knight of duty, is carrying the coat of arms of the Duchy of Connecticut, but he looks so perfect... Whether he is controlled by his expression, he is well-dressed His speech and speech skills are too perfect, his performance is almost impeccable, and he also has a half-breed elf horse, a sword made of mithril and a beautiful full-body plate armor..." Ryan frowned: "This seems a bit Not quite normal."

"It is indeed as you said, my baron, this is a bit abnormal." Katzenberg woke up from the previous confusion. He thought about it carefully, and felt strange: "If it is really like the baron you Speaking of which, even a poorer earl in the territory can't afford to support such a young man, there is no reason why he doesn't even have a follower."

"Maybe he has? He just doesn't want us to see it?" Ryan continued to think: "Then the question is, why doesn't he want us to see his subordinates? Instead, he came up alone and asked to join our team?"

"Maybe he's really just one person?" Katzenberg subconsciously wanted to defend the young knight, but he soon discovered the contradiction, and the question came back again: "Well, my Baron , now I also think he is a bit strange, there seems to be magic in his words,

I subconsciously believed his words without thinking. "

"If I'm traveling alone, then it's okay for me to take the opportunity to observe him." Seeing that Katzenberg understood what he meant, Ryan continued: "But the situation is different now. In the carriage, I have to consider their safety, the duty of the knight is to protect them."

"I admire your wisdom and judgment, my Baron, the choice you made is correct." Katzenberg finally accepted Ryan's opinion with complete sincerity: "Your considerations are always so far-reaching."

"You have to be careful in everything, what do you think? Abel?" Ryan asked what the fellow demon hunters meant.

"I have no objection to Your Excellency Ryan's decision." The demon hunter with two swords on his back also nodded.

"I have a hunch that this young knight named Matthew Bud is not that simple, and we will meet again at the banquet soon."

That night, Ryan and the others found a hotel to stay in. The Population of the Principality of Boldeiro is relatively dense, especially the Duke of Boderick, who is the chosen champion of Sea God Manann. He commands more than 80% of the regular navy of the entire Knight Kingdom. The Principality of Bordello is extremely rich in sea trade and seafood, and at the same time he is an excellent manager. Perhaps the only regret for him is that he failed to become a Holy Grail Knight.

At the same time, the Duke of Boldero is also very strict with his subjects, because the north of the Duchy of Boldero is the Duchy of Connaught, which is controlled by vampires, and the south of the Duchy of Boldero is fighting with Estalí. The Principality of Berleon, which is constantly at war in Asia, so the Duke himself has very strict control over the security and various activities in the territory, and he himself is therefore more feared than loved by the subjects.

As everyone expected, the appearance and lodging of the Holy Grail Knight made the innkeeper feel very honored. The soldiers held up the coat of arms of Ryan's family. Among the red and white coats of arms was a white book and a sharp sword, and then Surrounded by two ribbons, the golden holy grail pattern was shining, the innkeeper led the guys to worship Ryan, and all the guests stood up to express their respect to Ryan.

Respect, glory, fanaticism, this is the portrayal of the status of the Holy Grail Knights in this country. Even in the most remote and remote villages in the kingdom, people are telling the legends left by these models of worldly virtue, and singing the glory they established in the name of the goddess. It is said that many Holy Grail pilgrims always like to follow some Holy Grail knights who come out to perform tasks alone. The pilgrims collect almost everything thrown away by the Holy Grail knights along the way, whether it is damaged armor fragments, clothing, or even discarded of food residue. No matter how stormy or stormy, these pious scavengers follow their idols with blazing enthusiasm, exulting in every action of the knights, and singing loudly the words they left behind.

Some Holy Grail knights will not refuse these pilgrims to follow, because these people can be used as his retinues and servants, and they can also help the Holy Grail knights to fight, but Ryan doesn't like it. He sternly rejects the following of these Holy Grail pilgrims. Tell them you don't need them to follow you.

Then the Holy Grail pilgrims left happily. They were very happy that they were rejected harshly, because their behavior really attracted the attention of the Holy Grail Knights. Some even carved Ryan's words on their bodies with a dagger as a souvenir. .

Although Ryan is a little speechless, piety and ignorance are indeed powerful weapons against chaos and corruption. He really can't say anything about this situation. People's beliefs and pious emotions can condense in the subspace to provide energy for the fairies in the lake .

The female knight came to Ryan, and she stood side by side with Ryan gracefully, looking like a couple, with sparkling sea-blue eyes, and calmly narrated her request: "Please be sure to clean Clean the room, and I don't want certain 'gaps' in the room."

"Please arrange Lord Ryan's room next to my room, and the whole floor must be our people." Suria looked calm, but her tone revealed unquestionable majesty.

"I would like to follow your instructions, this shop will serve you with the most wholehearted attitude, lady!" The shop owner quickly responded, he made the most obsequious smile, and then signaled the shop assistants to clean up the room.

A group of people booked three floors, Ryan had a room alone, the three girls expressed their willingness to live in the big room, and the remaining three rooms were allocated to the followers, and the demon hunter Abel chose to live in the big room. Ask for a small room on the second floor. For a witcher, he just needs a place to rest.

So there was nothing to say all night.

The next day, everyone finally arrived at the capital of the Principality of Bordello, Bodleix.

Bodleaux is a large city with a population of 20,000, and it is also a very high-quality port city. From a distance, the huge port is dominated by marine knights and a large number of Britannian navy, and the huge round castle Standing on a stone mountain a few kilometers from the coast, the blue spire and the huge Neptune Trident banner flutter above the castle.

Unlike many cities, the harbor of Bordelux is not located within the city. On the contrary, this huge port is located outside the city. On the road leading from the harbor to the city, the Duke of Bordello built a large number of guard towers and stronghold.

Today's weather is still very cold, but Suria still insisted on riding alongside Ryan, and seeing Bodleix, the female knight looked sharply at the castle in the distance: "Lion, do you know why Duke Bodri of Bordeaux Why did Your Excellency set the port outside the city?"

"I don't know, but I'm willing to listen."

"The Principality of Bordello has been harassed by dark elf pirates all year round, and it is beneficial to separate the port from the city for defense." Suria looked at the Sea God Knights who were patrolling the port with serious eyes: "Besides, from Aes Thalia's invaders come from the Principality of Berleon to harass the border of Bordro from time to time, and the Scarlet Duke in the north is also interested in the huge wealth of Duke Boderick. Since taking over the Duke of Bodero, Boderick Your Excellency has never enjoyed a peaceful life for more than four years."

"It is also for this reason that His Excellency Boderick has a very strong personality but is very indifferent. He often only believes in his own strength and those who help him. He especially likes to appear on the front line and boost the morale of the soldiers. Although he Not the Holy Grail Knight, but whenever he appears in front of the army, he can boost the morale of the soldiers and let the soldiers know that he is with his soldiers." The female knight's eyes were sharp, and she said softly: "I always feel that , A true knight should be like this, dismount to manage the people, mount to manage the army, and always fight to defend their territory and people."

"The meaning of a knight's existence is to protect, protect our territory, our country, and the holy land of ladies." The female knight gradually developed a tough temperament, and her expression was very firm: "Me too."

"So, I think Lord Boderick is worthy of respect." The female knight's words were resounding, and she was a little different from her usual gentle and considerate appearance.

Ryan knew that no matter how approachable the female knight was, she was still a duke's daughter and a great nobleman who was raised as a knight since she was a child.

"Actually, for me, Miss Suria, you are also an object worthy of respect." Ryan began to feel that a gentle yet strong, beautiful and noble image had gradually entered his heart, so he said softly to her: " If you don't give up, I am willing to be your friend."

"Lyan..." The female knight's originally strong expression was instantly broken, and her tone was slightly shaken.

The Duke's daughter quickly calmed down, and she also said softly, "Call me Suria from now on."

"it is good……"

In the distance, a group of elite sergeants and several knights were already waiting for their arrival, and the leader was an acquaintance of Ryan, the big businessman of Bordeaux who was still helping him build the castle-Ismail.

"Hello! Your Excellency Ryan, on behalf of the Principality of Bordeaux and Your Excellency Boderick, I welcome you very much." The big businessman Ismail opened his arms, put his chest with one hand, bowed, and welcomed him with the most enthusiasm. The arrival of Ryan and others.

Ismail was originally the steward of Boderick, Duke of Boldeiro, and now he has become an independent businessman with the Duke's permission. He owns several airlines and trade routes, and it is said that his annual net income exceeds 30,000 gold kroner. Coming out is how much Boderick takes himself seriously.

"Hello! Mr. Ismail." Ryan stretched out his hand very politely.

"Hello, Mr. Ismail." Marquis Suria also shook hands with Ismail, and the female knight had a flawless standard aristocratic social smile on her face: "It's an honor to meet you."

"Ah, the arrival of Ms. Suria is really an honor for us Bordello. To be honest, we are still betting in the court of Bordello whether His Excellency Ryan will bring a female companion when he comes this time, will he?" Which female companion will you bring?" Ismail knelt down on one knee, then held the hand of the female knight, and stood up again, which was regarded as a hand kiss.

Kneeling is because Marquis Suria's status is much higher than that of this businessman, and in the hand kiss ceremony, it is actually not allowed to kiss unmarried girls. Smale just symbolically raised the hand of the female knight by two centimeters to complete the salute.

In fact, it is very rare for Ryan to directly kiss the back of the fairy in the lake. Even the hand kisses between close relatives are mostly kissed on the back of the finger, and more often the lady's hand has just been kissed. When it is lifted, it has been lowered, indicating that the salute is complete.

"Please come in, Your Excellency Ryan, Your Excellency Suria."

"The Duke is already waiting for you inside the city gate."
