Although the Lord Cagle of the City Lord's Mansion is only a Knight, his status is quite special. In the noble circle of Jianmer City, to a certain extent, he represents the Earl of Bunker.
Otherwise, even if the lord of Kagel is the lord of Jianmo City, he would not be able to gather all the nobles in the city together at once.
Earl Bunker seldom participates in affairs, which gives Santo Cagle a greater say.
When he arrived at the gate of the Santo's Mansion, David saw Captain Marquis the first time he got off the carriage. The earth knight was standing at the gate of the Santo's Mansion.
This surprised David a little. Although he had not been in the Great World of God for a long time, he knew how high the status of the Knights of the Earth was.
Every land knight is a knight knight in the divine world. The knight knight just occupies the side of the nobles, but coupled with the military power of the land knights, the status of each land knight is almost the same as that of a real noble.
Therefore, Captain Marquis personally stood at the door to welcome the guests, which always made people feel a little special. For receptions like this, the butler greeted the guests at the door.
Knight Andrew had already parked the alchemy carriage aside and returned to David's side.
"Let's go in!" David said with a smile when he saw him coming.
"Captain Marquis, this is our invitation letter!" Knight Andrew handed the invitation letter to Captain Marquis first.
"Welcome, Baron Arthur!" When Captain Marquis saw David, he was taken aback for a moment, and then greeted him with a smile.
He didn't look at the invitation letter. The nobles in Jianmer City were very familiar with each other. He knew the list this time, so he knew that David was also one of the invited nobles.
Captain Marquis was surprised by David's strength, but he remembered it very clearly. The last time he saw David, the knight pattern in David's body was not stable at that time. It's only been a few days. David He was promoted to an official knight.
Although even if David was an official knight, his strength was not seen by the Marquis knight, but this speed of improvement shows how enchanting David's talent is.
"Damn old Baron Luce, this is a waste of money. Sending such a qualified knight genius to the Interstellar Federation. Fortunately, old Baron Luce died early, so that Baron Arthur came back at such a young age. Otherwise, such a knight genius It’s really useless!” Captain Marquis thought in his heart.
David didn't know that the old Baron Luce had been insulted again. It is estimated that every time he showed genius in the future, the old Baron Luce would be pulled out and scolded again.
Captain Marquis beckoned a servant, and the servant led David and Knight Andrew into the Santo's Mansion.
In fact, there is no need to guide at all, the city lord's mansion can be seen clearly at a glance, as soon as you enter the gate, there is a square, and the hall is directly opposite the square.
The lights there are brighter than other places, even if the sky is still bright now, it can't hide the light there.
The servants sent David and Knight Andrew to the entrance of the hall and then left. David and Knight Andrew walked into the hall.
This hall is very large, and it is also a place for normal discussions in the City Lord's Mansion. Above the head are three rows of six alchemy lamps.
The reason why the alchemy lamps can be recognized at a glance is very simple, because the brightness of these six lamps is too high, illuminating the entire hall brightly.
Only alchemy lamps powered by kryptonite can produce such brightness. David rarely saw the situation in the homes of other nobles. At this time, he found that alchemy items were not as rare as he imagined. At least the city lord The government is using it.
David is a 'master of alchemy', so when he came in, he naturally cared about the alchemy items first, and then the guests at the reception.
It's just that he didn't recognize any of the guests here, but he didn't care. He waved his hand to tell Knight Andrew not to follow, but he took a glass of red wine and found a corner to stand alone.
No one here knew David, so he didn't attract other people's attention when he stood there.
Nobles walked into the hall one by one. David judged the identities of the nobles who came in based on his etiquette teacher Euphemia and his own knowledge of 'heraldry'.
He carefully looked at the clothes on the first nobleman, and he quickly knew the identity of the nobleman according to the shallow coat of arms pattern.
This seemingly boring move also let him kill some time.
"Hi, you chose a good location, it's a good place to see beauties!" David was watching when he suddenly heard a young voice from beside him.
David turned his head and found that the person who was speaking was a young man in his twenties. The young man spoke with a smile, and he had a look on his face that I understood.
It was only then that David realized that the nobleman he was staring at just now was standing next to a beautiful lady. The way he was staring at him made the young man think he was looking at a beautiful woman.
"It's just to pass the time!" David didn't admit or deny, but just said casually.
"Are you Baron Arthur? I saw your shadow leopard coat of arms!" The young man seemed to be very curious about David, and continued.
David glanced at the young man's dress, but found no heraldry pattern on the dress.
"I'm Arthur, I don't know who you are?" Although he didn't see the coat of arms, at least those who can come to this reception are quasi-nobles, David bowed and introduced himself.
"My name is Charlie." Charlie also replied with a noble salute, and then asked, "May I ask you some questions?"
David felt very amused by Charlie's familiarity, because he had never seen such an active nobleman during his time in the Great World of God, which reminded him of his friends in the Star Federation.
"Yes, but I don't know much, so I wonder if I can satisfy you!" David said with a smile.
"Does the Star Federation really have alchemy items that allow ordinary people to fly alone?" Charlie asked immediately when David agreed.
At this time, David understood the reason why the other party found him. It turned out that it was because he came from the Interstellar Federation.
"The Interstellar Federation does have an aircraft that allows ordinary people to fly, but it is not an alchemy item, but an energy engine used to drive the flight!" When David talked about the energy engine, he found that the Divine World did not have this words, so he can only use the pronunciation of the Interstellar Federation language.
"That's amazing, I wish I could get one too!" Charlie said with envy flashing in his eyes.
David understands this kind of mentality. Only sky knights can fly solo in the divine world.
Sky Knight can float and fly slowly in the air for a short time, and at the same time, he can sign a second mount, which is usually a flying mount, so that he can take advantage of flying to a greater extent.
As for flying with alchemy items, the biggest problem is power and control. Like the alchemy carriage made by David, it is not difficult to suspend the weight of a person. , then the volume of the entire alchemy item will be very large, and it cannot be as convenient as the "exoskeleton armor" and "extraordinary armor" with flight functions of the Star Federation.
Therefore, solo flight is the patent of the strong in the divine world, and it is natural for Charlie to envy the Star Federation.
"It's just an 'exoskeleton armor' with flight components added, it's not a good thing in the Star Federation!" David said with a smile.
"Then did you bring one from the Interstellar Federation?" Charlie asked softly, looking around.
David hesitated for a moment. He didn't want to lie. In fact, he did bring several pieces of 'exoskeleton armor', three of which had the function of flying.
It's just that there are regulations in the Great World of Gods, no one is allowed to bring the products of the Star Federation back to the Great World of Gods from the Star Federation.
Although everyone has violated this rule, and the Great World of Gods turned a blind eye to it, this matter cannot be said on the bright side.
Every year, the third-level strengthening potions obtained from the Interstellar Federation, as well as some technological items, will flow into the world of the gods.
Of course, items such as 'Exoskeleton Armor' and 'Extraordinary Armor' are difficult to enter into the world of Gods. On the one hand, these equipments cannot be opened without the identity recognized by the armor in the world of Gods.
On the other hand, all these equipments need to be maintained, and the Divine World cannot maintain such equipment at all.
The most important thing is that the 'exoskeleton armor' does not support the output of blood power at all. This kind of equipment can only be worn on a knight for fun, while the 'extraordinary armor' without extraordinary power is scrap iron.
"My God, Baron Arthur, you really brought back the 'exoskeleton armor' capable of flying!" Charlie's eyes lit up, and he exhaled softly.
But he immediately covered his mouth, he didn't want others to know about it.
"That's just my collection!" David didn't hide it, it wasn't a particularly big deal.
He himself is a researcher of the Interstellar Federation. When he returned to the Great World of God, he signed an agreement not to impart the knowledge of the Interstellar Federation to the Great World of God. As for some personal items, Ambassador Cumming did not mention it.
"Baron Arthur, can you discuss and sell your collection to me!" Charlie approached David and said softly.
David smiled and shook his head. He pointed to the middle of the hall. At this time, the Lord Kagel was walking there and was waving for everyone to be quiet.
Charlie glanced dissatisfiedly at San Francisco Cagle, but didn't speak any more.
"Dear distinguished guests, everyone is welcome to come to the reception!" Castellan Kagel raised his glass and said loudly.
The nobles at the side just patted their palms politely, without a warm atmosphere.
Everyone knew that this reception was not an ordinary gathering, and they were all waiting for the next words of Santo Kagel.
"I think you all know about Saluo City. Jianmo City is only two hundred kilometers away from Saluo City. The danger has never been so close to us. Especially the Atkins family was wiped out by the followers of the evil god, which shows that the evil god The strength of the believers far exceeds that of the past, so we must unite and form a team of knights to fight against the believers of the evil god!" The Lord of Kagel said in a deep voice.
Hearing the words of the city lord Kagel, the nobles began to discuss.
Almost all the nobles here have one or two accompanying knights. In addition, the nobles have the power of blood, at least they are apprentice knights. In fact, almost all the halls are knights.
Although there are many knights, there are not many knights who can really fight. Apprentice knights have no combat effectiveness. Although some nobles are official knights, they have almost no combat experience, and they also have little combat effectiveness.
It would not be a problem for them to bully weaker opponents, but it would be a disaster if they encountered equal or stronger opponents.
The knights in ordinary aristocratic families are relatives of the family, or they were adopted and cultivated by themselves like Knight Andrew, and they are unwilling to hand over the knights to others to command the battle.
Besides, the family knight still needs to protect the family. Without the family knight, what about the safety of the noble family
Of course, it's not that there are no nobles who support the Lord Kagel. They also hope to solve the matter of the evil god believers as soon as possible so that they can return to the family castle as soon as possible.
All kinds of arguments made the hall extremely chaotic, and the Lord Kagel seemed to be used to it. After he put forward his opinions, he began to talk to some nobles alone.
The Lord Cagle is not in a hurry at all, he knows the nobles very well, and as the Earl of Bunker behind him, it is easy to get the support of the nobles.
Earl Bunker's territory occupies half of Dasheng Star, and the nobles here will more or less have interests with Earl Bunker.
By relying on this, the Lord Kagel can get the support of many nobles, but what he needs to pay is only some small benefits.
"Baron Arthur, can you let me see the 'exoskeleton armor' that can fly?" Charlie asked David after seeing the end of the speech of Santo Cagle.
"Wait for a chance!" David said perfunctorily.
He was thinking about the words of the Lord Cagle. To be honest, if they really sent knights, the only one that could be sent by the Luce family was Knight Andrew.
The baron David can't be allowed to join the knight team. Although he is also an official knight, when will it be the baron's turn to fight in person.
And with Andrew Knight's strength, if something goes wrong, Andrew Knight will be the first to fall, because his strength is the lowest group.
Although David helped Knight Andrew change his equipment, that didn't make Knight Andrew any safer. One must know that their opponents were believers of evil gods with strange means.
David still remembered the strange fighting style of the evil god believers he had seen. It is estimated that Knight Andrew would not even be able to fight back. He did not want Knight Andrew to die in battle.
David also saw the method of the Lord Cagle. Whenever he chatted with a nobleman, the nobleman would nod in agreement.
He is also going to wait for the Lord Cagel to come over and listen to what the Lord Cagel will say, so that the nobles who originally opposed it can agree to the proposal of the Lord Cagel.
It was just that when the Lord Kagel came close to David, he saw Charlie who was still talking to David, and the Lord Kagel stopped. Instead of chatting with David, he changed his target .
