The occurrence of such a major event was beyond Lorist's expectations. The report received in the morning said that Henned had led his troops to control the city of Gildusk, and in the evening it was said that Henned had become a prisoner. This change was too great. Bigger. There was no way, Lorist ordered the camp to be dismantled immediately, and marched towards Gildusk city overnight.
It was already the evening of the second day when they arrived at Gildusk City. Baron Felim, who led the army to surround the Grand Duke's Palace, came to welcome Lorist and Earl Kenmes, and asked a family knight under Henned to tell the story Detailed process:
The reason was that the Tabek Golden Knight owed his mouth. He was ordered to take over the Grand Duke's mansion. He happened to meet Princess Sylvia. Maybe because he thought that the second prince had lost the opponent and lost his backer, he began to flirt. As a result, the princess was angered, and he acted immediately. hands up. No one thought that Princess Sylvia would be vindictive, and she is still a golden rank. You must know that Princess Sylvia is only 20 years old this year. A 20-year-old golden swordsman is really appalling. I can describe it.
The poor Tabek knight never dreamed that the delicate and powerless beauty princess in his eyes would turn into a female tyrannosaurus, and he suffered a big loss without any defenses. Not only was he restrained by Princess Sylvia, He was also beaten into a pig's head on the spot.
Henned rushed to hear the news and negotiated with Princess Sylvia. He first apologized for Tabek's Golden Knight, and then hoped that the princess would return Tabek to him, and made every effort to promise not to disturb the princess's residence. In this place, Princess Silvia can come and go freely in the Northland.
At the beginning, it was good, but then the princess suddenly pulled out the sword, pointed at Henned and said that he would agree to release the man only if he won the sword in her hand. Henned couldn't, so he had to compete with the princess.
Anyway, Henned is also a senior knight with two gold stars. He has been on the battlefield for a long time. Whether it is skill or experience, Princess Sylvia can't match it. Although he was a little tied up for fear of hurting the princess, the princess would definitely give up the sword and admit defeat after a long time, so the knights of Henned's family who were watching were very relieved.
But no one expected that when Henned wanted to cut off the princess's saber with a single sword to force the princess to admit defeat, he suddenly slipped his footsteps. The sword was placed on the neck.
The silver knights onlookers made an uproar, drawing their swords and wanting to charge upwards, but seeing Knight Henned throwing his sword away, he stopped the knights of his family, and ordered them to find Baron Felim and Lorist to support the overall situation , then shook his head with a wry smile and followed Princess Sylvia into the Grand Duke's mansion.
Baron Felim was shocked when he heard the news, and hurriedly led his troops to the city of Gildusk to surround the Grand Duke's mansion, and demanded that Princess Sylvia hand over Tabek and Henned. But Princess Sylvia said that it is very simple to want two people, first beat the sword in her hand. If the siege was carried out with a large number of people, she would kill Tabek and Henned first.
Baron Felim didn't want to fight Princess Sylvia. One was that he could not win by force, and the other was that he was held back by Henned's knights. If Baron Felim was captured by mistake like Henned, then There is no one in charge here. After all, it was too weird for Henned to fail. Such negligence should not be the performance of a golden knight.
"It's so froze now, and Princess Sylvia even sent someone to ask for some fresh fruits and vegetables, all of which are enough for her..." Baron Felim said with a wry smile.
Lorist adjusted his attire, turned around and left: "I'll go into the Grand Duke's mansion to have a look."
Baron Felim and Earl Kenmes were shocked, and hurried forward to stop them: "Lord Norton, Locke, don't be impulsive... Let's take a long-term plan..."
Lorist's figure flickered, past Baron Felim's blocking hand: "It's okay, Princess Silvia is a golden swordsman, so she shouldn't embarrass me, the Black Iron Step..."
But Earl Kenmes was held back by Reddy.
Earl Kenmes scolded angrily: "You just watch your lord go to die like this?"
Reddy said with a smile: "Don't worry, my lord, our lord has never been defeated so far, and the Chevani Golden Knight died because he failed in a duel with our lord..."
"Really?" Count Kenmes was stunned, and Baron Felim next to him also raised his ears. They only know that the Chevani Golden Knights were ordered by the Grand Duke Lukins of the Northland and the Henned Golden Knights led 4,000 Northland Legion soldiers to invade the territory of the Norton family. As a result, the entire army was wiped out. Ned Knight was captured, but the details of the battle were unknown.
Reddy pointed to the guards next to him: "Really, none of us guards are nervous, and everyone has confidence in Sir. In the past, Sir took the lead in every battle and charged forward. We are all used to the situation where Sir is invincible. .Your Excellency used one trick to capture Knight Henned back then, that’s why Knight Henned is so convinced by Your Excellency..."
Lorist had already arrived at the gate of the Grand Duke's Mansion. The gate was ajar and opened with a light push.
Entering the gate is a small square, which used to be the place where the guards of the Grand Duke's Mansion patrolled and rotated the whole team for training.
Lorist stood at the gate, took a deep breath, and registered loudly: "The Norton family, the lord of the earl, Norton Lorist is here to visit His Royal Highness Princess Sylvia. If you invite the princess, please come and meet me!"
Lorist was not shouting, but his voice was like thunder, rolling and reverberating over the Grand Duke's Mansion.
The Grand Duke's mansion suddenly jumped like dogs and dogs, and a large group of people rushed out. Facing Lorist alone, everyone seemed to be facing an enemy...
Not long after, a shout came: "Kingdom of Iberia, Her Royal Highness Princess Silvia has arrived..."
This was the first time Lorist saw Princess Sylvia, and now he understood what Earl Kenmax described to Princess Sylvia, she was like a goddess. Even though Lorist has seen countless beauties in two lifetimes, he was also amazed when he saw Princess Silvia, and a word appeared in his mind: Elf.
It is indeed as beautiful and elegant as the legendary elf... Lorist sighed slightly, then concentrated his mind, and stopped paying attention to that alluring face.
Princess Sylvia was also looking up and down Lorist, and was very curious about this Lord of the Northern Lands whom she had never met since she came to the Northern Lands. It's just that Lorist's clothes were very ordinary, and he didn't look like her own family. The soldiers also wore the latest Sid steel armor, but instead wore a very ordinary gray linen short coat, black shirt, black trousers, black half-tube boots, and a pair of black leather boots on the upper body. A bright silver wire soft armor.
He was about 1.8 meters tall, and he could only be considered medium in the taller Galintia continent, and he was not very outstanding, neither handsome nor ugly, he could only be considered ordinary. Princess Sylvia, who has seen many handsome men, promises that if she sees the lord of the Norton family in the crowd, she will forget it in a blink of an eye. This is purely a passerby role.
But what made Princess Sylvia feel a little unusual was that Lord Norton's black eyes were piercing, and when he looked at himself, he was very clear, unlike those nobles who were respectful on the surface and obscene behind their backs. It's very comfortable. His long black hair was tied behind his head, and there seemed to be confidence between his brows, as if he had a unique temperament, giving him an intuition that nothing would trouble him, which was a bit strange.
Lorist lowered his head, bent slightly, touched his chest with his right hand, and made a salute among equal nobles: "His Royal Highness Princess Sylvia, the current head of the Norton family in the Northland, Earl of Norton Lorist Greetings to you."
"Bold, you are a nobleman of the Kingdom of Iberia, why don't you greet Her Royal Highness the princess, do you want to commit an offense?" Before Princess Silvia could answer, a guard next to her got angry and accused Lorist loudly .
"May I ask when the Norton family became the nobles of the Iberian Kingdom? Why didn't the Norton family know? If the Norton family swore allegiance to the Iberian Kingdom, please show the oath and letter of allegiance to prove it, otherwise you will be shut down." mouth!" Lorist smiled lightly, but the anger in his eyes stared at the guard and took two steps back, speechless.
Princess Sylvia took a step forward and stood in front of the guard. Her face was icy cold, and her tone of voice was also icy cold: "So Baron Norton doesn't recognize himself as a nobleman of the Kingdom of Iberia?"
"Of course. Your Royal Highness, everyone in the world knows that the Norton family of the Northland has been loyal to the Cresson royal family for generations and guarding the borders of the empire. Peace. It is a pity that the civil strife in the empire and the struggle of the three kings have caused a powerful empire to separate and collapse. The Norton family still keeps in mind the ancestral teachings and guards the northern frontier for the empire, and is unwilling to participate in the civil strife of the empire. May I ask Your Royal Highness, the Norton family Is this behavior called loyalty?"
"Really? But don't forget, the empire is gone, so the Norton family began to act recklessly. Wasn't your Norton family responsible for the banditry that looted the Grand Duke's domain a few years ago?" Princess Sylvia sneered. .
"Your Highness, although the empire is gone, the loyalty and courage of the Norton family are still there, and they are still taking on the responsibility of guarding the frontier against the tide of monsters. As for the unfortunate incident that happened in the Grand Duchy a few years ago, it can only be said that the North The Grand Duke Lukins deserves his own fault. He should not have extended his greedy claws to the Norton family. We are just fighting back in self-defense. As for the people of the Grand Duke, they voluntarily followed us to the Norton family territory to start peace and tranquility in order to avoid war. Your Royal Highness, if you think about it, you will understand that our Norton family has usurped an inch of other people's territory? No, we have been living in our own family territory. But this is so, there are still people who refuse to let our family go, Forced us to fight back..." Lorist retorted loudly.
Princess Sylvia's jade-like cheeks were stained with two touches of blush, and now she was a little out of breath: "You really have a sharp mouth, Baron Norton, don't tell me your Norton family is relying on a sharp mouth to fight against the tide of monsters?" ?"
This is a bit harsh, but Princess Sylvia has become so angry this time that she can't care about anything else.
Lorist smiled calmly and said, "Don't forget, Your Highness, I have already fulfilled your request to see monsters. You should have seen those monster corpses with your own eyes, and know how our Norton family's heroic soldiers fought against monsters. I I would like to remind Her Royal Highness that the Norton family is now an earl. Because generations of ancestors have worked hard to guard the border for the empire, the orthodox blood of the Christen royal family inherited the Antinac royal family and canonized our family as earls. We accept it. This is our Deserved."
Princess Sylvia was speechless at first when she was refuted by Lorist's words, but when she heard the latter, she snorted softly: "It turns out that your Norton family and the Antinac royal family have colluded, no wonder you are so angry with me. The king of our Iberian kingdom has repeatedly refused his request without false words... "
Lorist laughed dumbfounded, and took out a piece of paper from his bosom: "Your Highness, maybe you should listen to what three requests your Majesty the King has made to the Norton family."
Lorist read aloud the three harsh requirements in the second prince's letter, only making Princess Sylvia's face turn red and then pale. No lord would agree to these three conditions. Send your family to the abyss. Now Her Royal Highness feels ashamed and ashamed.
"I don't listen, I don't listen..." Her Royal Highness lost her temper with a little girl, stomping her feet and said angrily.
"It's over, Your Royal Highness, let's not care about the grievances between me and the second prince. Anyway, he led an army of 100,000 to attack our Norton family. This meeting is over. Even he himself doesn't know where he has fled. I now I came here to discuss with you the issue that you have restricted the personal freedom of Tabek Knight and Baron Shaheen. How will you grant them freedom? You know that after the Great War, affairs are complicated, and there are many things waiting for them to deal with..." Luo Rist said.
When it comes to business, Her Royal Highness also regained her composure: "It's simple, it's better than the sword in my hand, so I let them go."
Looking at Lorist, Princess Sylvia curled her lips and said contemptuously: "Earl Norton, you are only a black iron step, so don't join in the fun, go back and exchange for your golden family knight."
Lorist laughed, stretched out his hand and slowly drew his sword: "I want to try..."
"You are so bold!" The guard next to Princess Sylvia just now rushed up, and the long sword in his hand flashed with a white light of more than an inch.
"Plop" the silver guard fell at Lorist's feet.
"噢.噗." This is the other two silver guards who drew their swords and charged up...
Then it was also a face-to-face and fell to the ground.
When a dozen or so guards fell under Lorist's feet, Lorist became impatient: "Your Highness, how many guards do you have left? Why don't you ask them to come along with you? I'll send them off earlier..."
Princess Sylvia looked dignified, and while drawing her sword, she waved her hand to stop the remaining guards who wanted to rush up: "You are not his opponent, let me..."
"You are also not my opponent, Your Highness Princess Sylvia, let the people behind you come out, don't think that no one will find you hiding under the shadow of the tree." Lorist said to the princess unceremoniously, and then He turned to look at a big tree next to the courtyard wall.
"I've never seen your sword skills like this, and I don't know how you discovered me. I can only say that your sword skills inheritance is very weird..." A slightly hoarse female voice came from under the big tree, one with A hooded figure in a large black robe appeared in front of the tree.
For the first time, a tense expression appeared on Lorist's face. His gifted dynamic vision was unable to capture the real position of the figure in the black robe. It seemed to be under a big tree, but there seemed to be no one in the black robe. It's just a piece of clothing.
Lorist licked his lips: "I think you should be the nurse of the princess, the great swordsman Sandy, no wonder Henned lost his hand in the fight with the princess, it turned out that you were there to help ... I find it strange that no matter how amazing the princess is, she is stunningly beautiful and talented, but after all, she is still young, but with a rank of one gold star, how can she defeat the battle-tested golden knight? ... "
"How dare you look down on me, hmph, look at the sword!" Princess Sylvia on the side got angry, and a golden light flashed on the sword as she stamped her foot, and rushed towards Lorist.
"Stop!" The black-robed figure was shocked, he didn't know whether to tell the princess to stop or to prevent Lorist from resisting, so he obediently stayed still and let the princess stab his sword to calm down.
Lorist naturally ignored the black shadow's cry, and as soon as he was short, the princess's sprint fell through the iron bridge. His body bounced up like a spring, and he was already close to the princess, almost in a state of hand-to-hand combat.
The princess was shocked, whether it was blocking or dodging, she was ready for the next step, but she didn't expect that although Lorist was dodging, he was still in place, and her sprint missed just right where Lorist was. Lower Lorist's figure was bouncing close to his body. The poor princess had never been so close to a strange man before, and she was in a panic at the moment. She only knew how to stretch out her hand to push Loris away, especially because she was so close...
Lorist's figure swayed again, and he was behind the princess. He grabbed the princess's sword hand with one hand, and the blade of the saber in the other hand was pressed against the princess's jade-like face. Make Princess Silvia freeze.
A cold light flashed from mid-air, but it was Princess Silvia's pale face facing the cold light...
…
