"Your Excellency, Baron De Ward will die for you!" Baron De Ward bowed deeply and said gratefully.
In Baron De Ward's old body, youthful vitality surged, and the physical injuries left over from many times of hard work and battles all disappeared completely under the effect of a bowl of 'heart-warming lotus seed soup'.
At this time, how could Baron De Ward not know how precious 'Heart-warming Lotus Seed Soup' is? No wonder the fifth-level Templars are crazy about it.
"Work hard and find out the defectors earlier!" David said, reaching out to support Baron De Ward.
"My lord, Earl Brooks has arrived outside the castle!" The butler walked in at this moment and bowed to report.
"Your Excellency, I will meet Earl Brooks and bring him to see you!" Baron Devold said with a bow.
As the Earl of Brooks, even if he is the administrator of Battle Star and the highest officer of the God World on Battle Star, it is not yet Duke Arthur's turn to greet him with such an identity.
Baron De Ward, as the master, is also a low-level baron, so he needs to greet him in person.
David would not break this rule, but when he saw the situation outside the castle through Shadow Waiter's eyes, he still stood up.
"We went together, I saw an old friend!" David said with a smile.
Outside the castle, Earl Brooks did not bring the guards this time, but came with Ambassador Cumming.
"How dare the honorable Lord Duke Arthur go out to greet him in person!" When Earl Brooks saw David, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to salute.
"Welcome Earl Brooks!" David returned the salute with a smile, then turned to look at Ambassador Cumming who was saluting to him, stepped forward to help Ambassador Cumming and said, "Ambassador Cumming, we haven't seen each other for nearly a year! "
Ambassador Cumming looked at David with a puzzled expression. He sent David to the Great World of Gods a year ago. At that time, David was just a talented researcher who had never been trained as a knight. He was preparing to inherit a dilapidated baron family. .
For a year, Ambassador Cumming kept hearing about David, and he couldn't believe that the one in the rumors was the Arthur he knew.
Even if the names are the same, the identity information in the intelligence is also the same, but Ambassador Cumming just can't believe it.
To this day, seeing David smiling and looking at him in front of him feels like a world away.
"Honorable Duke Arthur, your achievements are unparalleled!" Ambassador Cumming said with emotion.
Several people walked into the hall and sat down in priority.
"It turns out that Duke Arthur and Ambassador Cumming are old acquaintances. I don't know if Duke Arthur is free tonight. The nobles and I have prepared a welcome reception for you. Please appreciate it!" Earl Brooks said with a smile.
When Earl Brooks spoke, he secretly winked at Ambassador Cumming and asked him to help persuade him.
"That's right, Duke Arthur, many nobles on Battlestar admire your achievements, so please get together if you are free!" Ambassador Cumming and Earl Brooks, one in the Star Federation and the other in Battlestar, have a very close relationship. He would never refuse such a casual thing, and then said.
David also understands that the reception is a habit deeply rooted in the blood of nobles belonging to the world of God, and it is an important part of the nobles' social interaction.
Anyway, the location of the defector has not been found yet, and it is not a big deal to delay for a day. The nobles on the Battle Star side are all the elites of the God World, so it is good to get to know each other.
Seeing that David agreed to participate in the reception, Earl Brooks looked excited. Duke Arthur, a legend in the world of gods and a reserve member of the Supreme Council, was almost the highest-level visitor to Battle Star in recent decades.
This time Earl Brooks came to visit David because he was here to invite David to the reception. Even if there was no such reason, but because of David's identity, he had to come to see David.
Earl Brooks didn't stay too long, he left soon, and he needed to get ready for the evening reception.
David had two hours of rest, but the 'Shadow Wyvern' placed on his shoulder became active, lifted the 'invisible' state, and rubbed his head lightly.
David laughed, took out a piece of three-level reinforced meat and sent it to the mouth of the 'Shadow Wyvern', and the 'Shadow Wyvern' opened its mouth to bite.
"My lord, is this your flying mount?" Baron De Ward, who was following David, couldn't help asking curiously when he saw the sudden appearance of the 'Shadow Wyvern'.
"Yes, it's still small!" David replied with a smile.
"My lord, Battlestar is a little special. You'd better not let the flying mount fly. Although according to the agreement, the fifth-level Zerg will not kill the fourth-level sky knight, but the flying mount of the fourth-level sky knight is the favorite of the fifth-level Zerg. The target of the attack!" Baron Devold reminded softly.
David was taken aback when he heard this, and he also remembered that there seemed to be such a saying. At that time, Baron Du Bois hardly used his flying mount in battle, and every time he used it, he used it quickly and put it away.
Completely different from the fourth-level sky knights in the divine world, the fourth-level sky knights in the divine world will use every opportunity to travel on flying mounts. This is not only for convenience, but also to increase the degree of cooperation with flying mounts .
The fifth-level Zerg will not attack the fourth-level sky knight casually. This is the battle star. The complex energy composition of the battle star makes the fifth-level energy here likely to cause special energy riots. The consequences will not be any fifth-level powerhouses. able to bear.
So a long time ago, the three worlds reached an agreement. Of course, it is mainly the God World and the Zerg. Both the God World and the Zerg have level 5 powerhouses. The agreement restricts the level 5 powerhouses from using level 5 in Battle Star energy.
The so-called fifth-level energy is the blood power of the body of the fifth-level Templar, and the extraordinary energy in the body of the fifth-level Zerg. These fifth-level energies are used in this space where the three worlds meet, and it is very easy to cause chaos in the space. The explosion of complex energy will threaten the fifth-level powerhouse himself and the entire battle star.
The Interstellar Federation does not have a fifth-level powerhouse, and the signing of the agreement is only a guarantee to prevent the occurrence of a fifth-level powerhouse in the future.
You must know that in order to sign this agreement, the three worlds have experienced high-level wars and paid a considerable price.
Of course, level five powerhouses are not free from conflicts, but fighting with level five powerhouses in Battlestar is purely physical combat, and they will not use level five energy to participate, even if they die, they cannot use level five energy.
The fifth-level powerhouses sent to the battle star need to take an oath to abide by, otherwise they cannot enter the battle star.
Perhaps the people of the Interstellar Federation can't understand, there is an oath that the fifth-level powerhouse must abide by until death, but David, who has lived in the world of the gods, knows that if he swears to the gods, once the oath is broken, the consequences will be severe. Possibly more dire than the consequences of dying in battle.
Thinking of this, David couldn't help showing a strange look on his face.
He was thinking about finding a fifth-level Zerg to try his combat power, and the 'Half-length Spider Queen' was very good.
Back then, David was almost killed by the finger of the 'Half Spider Queen', and he also wanted to see if the half fingertip of the 'Half Spider Queen' had grown back.
He used that half of his fingertips to make a fifth-grade ax blade, which has been his strongest weapon for a long time.
Baron De Ward saw that David seemed to be thinking about something and didn't speak or disturb, and stood quietly aside.
"It's nothing, my flying mount hasn't learned to fly yet!" David said with a smile after a while.
As David touched the body of 'Shadow Winged Dragon' with his hands, 'Shadowed Wyvern' obviously understood what he said, spread his wings a little unconvinced, jumped up from his shoulders, and then It fluttered a few times in the air, and when it was about to fall, the figure disappeared instantly and returned to David's shoulder.
"Your flying mount..." Baron Devold stared at the 'Shadow Wyvern' dumbfounded, but he couldn't help but stop when he just said it.
When he saw the 'Shadow Wyvern', he guessed that there must be something special about this weird flying mount with a special shape, but he didn't expect it to have such a special ability.
This is the ability to move through space, a terrifying ability that can play a decisive role in battle.
"Help me keep it secret for now!" David said to Baron Devold with a smile.
It's only temporary, after the 'Shadow Wyvern' is able to fly, this ability cannot be hidden at all.
"Please rest assured, I will definitely keep this a secret!" Baron De Ward said with a bow.
David just smiled, and his gaze turned to 'Shadow Wyvern' again. He was extremely surprised by the performance of 'Shadow Wyvern' just now. He never thought that 'Shadow Wyvern' could fly.
Although it only flew a little distance, and even the flying posture was stumbling, but the 'Shadow Wyvern' was born not long ago, and it has such an ability, which is already very impressive.
'Shadow Wyvern' obviously fell in love with flying. It kept trying to jump off David's shoulder time and time again, and then used 'teleportation' to return to David's shoulder after flying for a while. Its a new way of entertaining.
In this castle, David let the 'Shadow Wyvern' play with nothing to do, and he cooperated with the 'Shadow Wyvern' with a smile.
Since the last Star Wars, the situation on the front line has calmed down a lot, and both sides are recuperating.
But today's 'Starship' that descended from the sky still attracted the Zerg's attention.
Those who can dispatch this kind of "starry sky boat" are all nobles belonging to the great world of the gods, so the Zerg can't help but don't pay attention to them.
These days it was the turn of the fifth-level Zerg Half-body Spider Queen to take turns. For some reason, it heard the arrival of the 'Starship' and wanted to investigate it in person on a whim.
Normally, the fifth-level Zerg would not participate in this kind of investigation. The Zerg has many scouting Zergs with special extraordinary abilities, which can allow the Zerg to scout the target at a minimum cost.
The fifth-level zerg half-body spider queen believed in her own feelings. It didn't think that the fifth-level life would have a whim at will, and only when something related to it appeared, would it feel like this.
The fifth-level Zerg half-body spider queen will naturally not come out. If it dares to use the main body to appear, it is estimated that several fifth-level Templar knights from the Divine World will be very happy to leave the body of the fifth-level Zerg half-body spider queen. Return tier 5 material loot back to the clan.
It didn't act during the day, but waited until it was getting dark, and used its energy clone to leap over the line of defense. Of course, it flew at a very high altitude, and followed its induction to start searching and reconnaissance.
David didn't know that his arrival had attracted the attention of another "old friend" of his. He changed into a cocktail dress, sat in the alchemy carriage prepared by Baron Devold, and headed towards Earl Brooks' castle.
Captain Norbert escorted the alchemy carriage with twelve formal knights. This kind of guard of honor is considered a very high standard in Battle Star.
David sat in the alchemy carriage, and Baron De Ward sat opposite him, introducing him to the surrounding situation.
David's understanding of Battle Star was no less than that of Baron Devold, but as Duke Arthur, he needed to show an expression of ignorance and listen to Baron Devold's explanation.
There was a rustling sound in the distance, not loud, but for David, who had a keen hearing, it immediately caught his attention.
Since he didn't have any sense of danger, he also knew that it wasn't some powerful Zerg.
Sure enough, when Shadow Servant flew into the air, he saw ten first-class Zerg 'Hunter Mantis' in the distance surrounding the team.
With the low-level intelligence of the 'Hunter Mantis', it doesn't have a strong perception of whether the target is strong or not.
Captain Norbert and the twelve official knights have been carefully controlling their aura. They don't want their aura to affect David who is sitting in the alchemy carriage.
And David's own fourth-level sky knight is too high for the first-level 'Hunter Mantis'. If David doesn't let out his breath, he can't arouse the alertness of 'Hunter Mantis'.
David couldn't help but put a smile on his face, how many days had he not dealt with Zerg.
After seeing the 'Hunter Mantis' now, I actually feel nostalgic, and I miss the days of fighting and living on the Battle Star.
"The first team protects the carriage and moves forward, and the second team attacks!" After ten 'hunter mantis' approached, Norbert, the head of the guard, also spotted them, and immediately ordered loudly.
Although this is a guard of honor, it is still an official knight after all. Six official knights formed a knight battle formation. After a single attack, all ten 'Hunter Mantis' were eliminated.
The forward speed of the alchemy carriage was not affected, and of course David would not bother with such a low-level battle.
Only Shadow Servant didn't give up the soul of 'Hunter Mantis' because of the level of 'Hunter Mantis', and flashed to the corpses of ten 'Hunter Mantis' to absorb their souls.
"Finally, I have gained something!" David said helplessly in his heart.
Now the place where he can absorb enough soul energy is only in the Great World of Gods. War Stars rarely have high-level battles, and the chances of Shadow Waiters being able to absorb souls above level 4 are too low, let alone the Star Federation .
