After conferring the title of knight apprentice to his two cousins and admiring their ecstatic expressions, Joshua returned to the city lord's manor under his uncle's endless gratitude.
This place used to be called the Golden Manor, but now that the golden fences and paths had been torn down, the Golden Manor no longer lived up to its name. Now, it was simply called the city lord's manor.
Liang Lidong continued to enchant the equipment. Kail's armor was complete. Even if Kail didn't activate the bloodline ability, it was still a decent piece of armor. In the game's terms, it was purple equipment.
After completing the enchantment, Liang Lidong also removed some magic from his Pseudo Emperor Fallen Sword. Of course, he didn't put in as much effort as he did with the previous equipment. After all, although the sword was of good quality, it was still an ordinary weapon. There was no need for it to become a magic weapon.
But Emma's staff was really good. Although it looked ordinary, it was actually a decent piece of magic equipment. When Liang Lidong found Emma and said that he wanted to enchant her, the girl was shocked. She looked like she had seen a ghost.
"Why?" she asked.
"Isn't it normal to increase the strength of a companion?" Liang Lidong said matter-of-factly.
"But it'll cost a lot of money." Emma pursed her pink lips.
Everyone could understand why Liang Lidong would enchant Kail's armor. After all, Kail was his student. It was natural for a teacher to help a student. But what was she? She was just an ordinary girl. Although she was pretty, Emma didn't think that beauty would have any effect on Beta.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have punched her.
Although she had regrown now, the feeling of being beaten mercilessly for the first time still made her tremble with fear when she thought about it.
"Money is a small matter." Liang Lidong stretched out his hand. "Give me the staff."
Emma stared blankly for a moment before obediently handing the staff to Liang Lidong.
Not long after, she appeared in Liang Lidong's room. She sat on the side and quietly watched as Liang Lidong enchanted her staff.
As the Saintess. The most important aspects of Emma were her casting speed and mana gathering speed. Liang Lidong would naturally strengthen these two aspects.
It was a pity that the body of the staff was too small. If it was bigger, he even wanted to add an Agility Rune to the staff. With the agility characteristic of the Storm Saintess, it could increase Emma's mobility to a certain extent. It gave her greater mobility and ability to protect herself.
Emma rested her chin on her hand and quietly watched as Liang Lidong worked seriously.
A while later, Joshua returned. He walked to the door and was stunned when he saw Emma. He felt that there was a strange atmosphere in the room, and he had a feeling that someone would be angry if he went in. He thought for a moment. He then tiptoed away.
In the following days, everyone's lives were very fulfilling. After helping Emma strengthen her staff, Liang Lidong also participated in the search mission. The Brave Ones continued to complete missions, while Joshua began to socialize with the nobles. At the same time, he didn't forget to train his abilities.
About a month later, Alice and Kail both rose to level 6. Liang Lidong, on the other hand, had risen to level 7.
All three of them had their strength increased by one level, and there were obvious changes. But in fact, the one who changed the most was Joan Of Arc. This falcon grew more and more majestic. Apart from magic, its melee ability had also been greatly enhanced.
Its claws were so strong that they could even scratch through three-centimeter-thick armor.
Ordinary leather armor was in front of it. It was completely made of paper.
After more than a month, although there were some twists and turns, Joshua successfully held the position of the mayor in his hands. Now, his power had been recognized by the royal envoy.
At this time. Liang Lidong and the others, on the other hand, left Sisilia. Before leaving, the old elf Ans invited Liang Lidong over for a detailed talk.
Margret had received the letter that Liang Lidong wrote to Margaret. She went crazy on the spot, but didn't hurt any elves. After she calmed down, she inquired about Liang Lidong's location. She had already planned to come, but there was an emergency with the fire dragons, so she had to go back to deal with it.
Margaret actually remembered him … Liang Lidong was a little surprised. But he knew very well that Margaret definitely didn't want to see him, but wanted to see someone else through him.
His cousin, the young dragon Knight Shuke.
Also, before Liang Lidong left Sisilia, he heard a very strange piece of news.
A beautiful woman with wings suddenly broke into Pine Wind City. She wounded almost all the professionals, but had no intention of hurting any civilians.
When Liang Lidong heard the news, his first reaction was that an angel had descended, but subsequent intelligence said that the woman had a pair of white butterfly wings.
When he heard this, Liang Lidong was puzzled. He had never heard of a special humanoid race with butterfly wings in the game.
Although a little curious, Liang Lidong didn't go to Pine Wind City. Instead, he teleported himself and the other three to Blue Harbor.
Blue Harbor was Hollevin's third-largest commercial city.
As soon as he came out of the teleportation array, Liang Lidong smelled the fishy smell of the ocean. For people who rarely went to the seaside, they would smell this when they first came to the ocean. Some people liked it, some people didn't.
But in any case, as long as they lived by the sea for a few days, they would get used to this smell.
Liang Lidong's magic beacon was originally set outside the city, but because the distance was a little far, the magic fluctuations in the teleportation caused a slight deviation in the teleportation magic. As a result, the four of them appeared on the edge of the harbor and almost fell into the sea.
Blue Harbor was a little larger than it was three hundred years ago, and the harbor docks were full of merchant ships. One ship after another, as if there was no end in sight.
There were many people near the harbor, sailors, dockworkers … When they saw four people appear in the magic array, they immediately pretended not to see anything and continued with their work.
After all, spellcasters were temperamental, and ordinary people like them couldn't afford to provoke them.
"Spatial Mages are still more convenient." Emma looked at Liang Lidong with some curiosity on her face. "Why did you choose to become an ascetic follower of Woking when you're such a powerful spatial Mage?"
"I like it." Liang Lidong answered very seriously, and in response to him was the sound of waves in the ocean and the shouts of the coolies around him.
Alice jumped down from the unicorn and found that her mount didn't seem very spirited.
Seeing this, Liang Lidong said, "Alice. Unicorns are forest creatures, and it will be very uncomfortable at the seaside. You let it leave first and return to the forest. Let it come back when we return from Cambay Island. "
Alice nodded. She couldn't bear to look at the unicorn.
After all, it was one of the three fantasy mythological beasts. The unicorn could understand human language. It snorted at Liang Lidong, then strode off along the coastline and left the Blue Harbor, then turned in the direction of the forest.
"Kail, go ask around if there are any medium-sized ships going to Cambay Island."
"Emma and Alice, you two go to the city to buy some rations."
All three agreed. Emma asked, "What about you?"
"I have some personal matters to deal with." Liang Lidong said lightly, then left the harbor.
The three didn't think there was anything wrong with Liang Lidong going to deal with personal matters. During this time, they also saw the role Liang Lidong played — making money, enchantment equipment, and giving advice. It could be said that the soul of the entire team was actually Liang Lidong.
Although Kail was the Hero, he had a feeling. If it wasn't for his teacher's guidance, he, the Hero, wouldn't be able to face the Demon God. He would die.
There was a reason why Liang Lidong came out to deal with personal matters.
In the game, the Lord of the Blue Harbor was actually one of his Round Table Knights. He wanted to quietly see how the descendant of the Crybaby was doing.
The Mayor's Mansion of the Blue Harbor was located on the top of a cliff by the sea. Liang Lidong walked two hundred meters in front of the castle. He looked at the huge family pattern on the front of the castle and felt a burst of emotion.
In the game, his Round Table Knights were actually problematic youths. There were eccentric half-elf illegitimate children and cowardly Crybabies.
The Crybaby was called Theodore Lisbon. The only son of the Lisbon family, by some chance, became his Round Table Knight. Then Lisbon's Blue Harbor was handed over to his henchmen to take care of. But reality was slightly different from the game. In reality, Theodore shouldn't have left the Blue Harbor.
But even so, Liang Lidong could be sure that Theodore, like Grinton, remembered him.
That was because the huge family tattoo above Lisbon's main entrance was a mouse.
Originally, the Lisbon family's family pattern should have used a goshawk as a symbol. It was changed to a mouse because Liang Lidong had told him that mice were actually a very tenacious creature, more suitable for reproduction and survival than beasts.
Since then, Theodore in the game had changed the family pattern to a mouse.
Now, Lisbon's family pattern was still a mouse. Liang Lidong was slightly moved.
He smiled and turned to leave. A carriage came from the front, and as it passed by, the curtain of the carriage was pulled open. An old man saw Liang Lidong's face and was slightly stunned.
But the two sides quickly pulled apart.
The carriage entered the castle, and the old man got out of the carriage. He carried a basket with a silver kettle in it.
Then the old man went upstairs and walked to the big house on the third floor facing the sea. He opened the door and saw a blonde girl reading.
The girl was very beautiful and had fair skin.
She was reading a biography of a Knight, holding a white quill in her right hand. Because she was so engrossed in reading, she didn't notice the quill in her mouth and chewed gently.
The old man put the basket on the table and said softly, "Miss, the fresh milk is here. Drink it while it's fresh."
The girl was startled. She turned around and patted her high chest, saying coquettishly, "Grandpa Pine, you scared me."
"Hehe, my fault." The old man laughed and took out a cup from the cabinet next to him. He poured the milk from the silver kettle into the cup and brought it to the girl. "Miss, drink it first."
"Milk again." The girl looked bitter. "I drink it every day, I'm tired of it."
The old man smiled and said, "That's the last words of Theodore. A cup of milk strengthens a nation. All descendants of Lisbon must drink a cup of milk every day when conditions permit. "
The girl pouted and took the cup helplessly. She poured the milk into her mouth and said, "That's enough, Grandpa Pine."
The old man smiled affectionately and took two steps back with the cup.
"I don't know why Theodore has so many strange last words," the girl said unhappily. "A cup of milk strengthens a nation. If you want to be rich, build roads first. And quality education … Now I'm the only one in the Lisbon family."
"But I have to say that Theodore was indeed a genius. He was right," Pine said with a smile, "Whether it's the young lady or the previous generations of Lisbon, every one of them is a true genius. Young lady, you're only fifteen years old, yet you're already a Great Swordsman. Only the Saintess of the Storm Shrine can compete with you. I think this has a lot to do with the teachings left behind by Theodore."
"In terms of strength, I'm stronger than the Holy Lady." The girl played with her hair. "But she's really beautiful. I've never seen such a beautiful person. It doesn't matter how strong a woman is. Beauty is more important."
Pine chuckled. His eyes swept across the wall to the right. He wanted to see the portrait of Theodore, but he suddenly froze.
There were six portraits there. Five of them were of the outstanding patriarchs of the Lisbon Family, but the one at the front was of a golden-haired young man. His appearance bore no resemblance to the patriarchs of the Lisbon Family.
Pine's eyes were fixed on the first portrait, lost in thought.
The girl seemed to sense the old man's abnormality. She turned around and asked, "Grandpa Pine, what are you thinking about?"
"On my way back, I saw a spellcaster outside." Pine had a strange expression on his face. "At first, I thought he looked familiar.
I felt like I'd seen him somewhere before, but I couldn't remember. "
"But just now, I knew why I felt that way," Pine pointed to the first portrait, "That person looks exactly like the 'Knight King' painted by Patriarch Theodore!"
The girl froze for a moment. Then she smiled. "Grandpa Pine, are you seeing things?"
"Miss, you know that. I'm a Rogue. Even if I'm too old to move, my hands and my eyes won't go wrong. "
The girl stood up and said, "If that's the case, then we must find him. If he's really the Knight King, then we'll be loyal to him. If he's not, then we'll kill him. Send people to find him. Now! "
Pine bent over and exited the room.
