Chapter 492 The Award Ceremony Begins

As time goes by, the discussion about the legendary award ceremony is getting more and more heated.

At first, people were still questioning the authenticity, but when they saw that high platforms had begun to be built in the square of Neverwinter City, and the money spent on those reliefs and buildings even exceeded the Temple of Wealth, everyone no longer believed in Neverwinter City's generosity. Doubted.

What followed was a heated discussion about who would be awarded each award.

Every once in a while, Neverwinter announces a new award, the amount of the award, and nominations for potential recipients of the award.

For example, the recently announced annual Best Craftsman Award nominated three extremely prestigious dwarf craftsmen.

Of course, compared to the Best Craftsman Award, which only has a bonus of 10,000 gold coins, people are more concerned about the highest award - the Best Adventurer of the Year Award, also known as the Legend Award.

The prize for this comprehensive award will be one hundred thousand gold coins. There is no doubt that this is a reward that can make most people excited.

However, the nominations for the Legend Award have not been announced until now.

Every night, almost all the taverns are arguing about who will become the best adventurer of the year and get the one hundred thousand gold coins. For this reason, many people with different opinions often fight in the debate, giving Neverwinter The security of the city has increased a lot of pressure.

Of course, as a large number of adventurers began to pour into Neverwinter City from all over the Sword Coast and even Faerûn, Dagot Neverember has begun to strengthen the security force of Neverwinter City. Anyway, there are more and more adventurers. No one would mind making a little extra money while waiting for the awards ceremony to begin.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Tang Sen naturally did not waste time. With the help of money, Naomi's intelligence organization was successfully established in prototype.

Cui Xi's judging panel has also been successfully formed. This period of time can be said to be her most exciting time. She is busy discussing with the judges every day who should be the most fair to win the award.

As a person with very active ideas, even out-of-the-box, she even added some controversial races to the list of winners, such as a drow who rebelled from the Underdark, and of course, people she knew. The golden dragon Levlencia - competed with several paladins in the annual Most Righteous Deeds Award.

Barn was not idle either. Townsend arranged for him to work next to Daggett Wuhen to learn how to manage a city.

Time passed in such busyness, and soon the award ceremony came as scheduled.

At this time, a gorgeous building has risen in the center of the square in Neverwinter City. This open-air building has a pyramid-like shape, and everyone surrounding the square and its surroundings can look at the top platform.

Several magic devices have been set up around the square. Through the image magic arranged on the high platform, all images on the high platform will be projected on the magic devices.

This entire set of magic arrangements alone probably costs more money than Neverwinter's annual tax revenue.

There is no doubt that the entire square is already crowded with adventurers from all over the world. The city lord of Neverwinter, Dagot Neverember, stands on a magnificently decorated stage in the center of the high platform. There are rows of seats all around, and they are already full of people.

These are all candidates for legendary award ceremonies.

Because the campaign started two months in advance and because of the high bonuses, people's views on the award ceremony have been completely different. The most intuitive manifestation is that almost 90% of the invitations sent out by Neverwinter City people have already arrived at the scene.

You can imagine what an incredible scene this is - no city has ever been able to gather so many famous adventurers at one time.

Some of them may only come because of their contribution in a certain aspect, but most of them have made a name for themselves by relying on their own strength. Maybe a random apple can hit a nine-ring mage, or even A legendary professional.

If he could command this force, not only sweeping across the entire continent of Faerûn, but sweeping across a country would obviously be no problem.

"Now I know why the boss chose to hold the award ceremony." Barn stood beside Daggett Wujin, thoughtfully: "Even if our identities are exposed now, seeing this kind of battle, Saza Stan might not dare to show up, right?"

He looked around and was slightly disappointed when he didn't see Tang Sen.

Everyone has been too busy recently and hasn't been together for a long time, which makes Barn very uncomfortable.

At this time, Dagot Wujin glanced at Barn and whispered: "It's almost time, can we start?"

"This kind of thing, the city lord can decide -" Barn responded reflexively, but soon saw the look on Dagot Wujin's face, so he said helplessly: "Then let's get started."

Another thing I am not used to during this period is that the Lord of Neverwinter City is too polite to me, even respectful.

Barn didn't know what his boss had communicated with the city lord, so that the other party completely gave him the initiative to manage Neverwinter City, and asked him for instructions on everything in detail. If he didn't understand , the other party will also explain patiently.

It was as if he was the real Lord of Neverwinter City.

Baan once asked, but the other party just said with a smile that if he could get some positions in the newly built city, even if it was just a small management, it would be much better than the so-called mayor of the current Neverwinter City.

The other party is obviously trying to please himself.

Baan didn't understand and was shocked.

This is normal. Barn has never been exposed to power, and he has no idea how lofty his status is in the blueprint drawn by Tang Sen. Dagot Wujin is different from him. Even if we don’t talk about the future, just in terms of At the current award ceremony, he has already seen the immeasurable prospects, which is enough for him to give up everything now and fight hard.

What's more, his heart is still in the hands of others.

On the high platform, lines of magic emerged, and the magic devices around the square lit up, turning into huge screens that simultaneously projected everything on the high platform.

"I am the city lord of Neverwinter, Dagot Neverember."

Daggett Noember's voice echoed throughout the square: "I am honored to be invited to open the first Legend Awards Ceremony."

"Invited?"

There was a humming murmur in the square.

Many astute adventurers have realized the subtext contained in this word - the legendary award ceremony was not held by Dagot Wuhen, but by someone else?
