Chapter 575 (1/2)
”All right! My knight, I will give you a fiend! Before that, you should think about your family name and badge, and give it to my Herald officer! ”
The Earl of blue mountain took up Wu Ming affectionately: ”and your knight baptism, a lot of preparation... You will get used to it slowly, of course... These are all things in the future. Now, let's cheer heartily!”
He immediately announced: ”I have arranged a banquet in the castle. Let's celebrate for Sir William together!”
As the last rank of nobility, knights are not more formal than barons, but they also have hereditary land. Therefore, they can be called ”knights” and can be regarded as Pan members of nobility.
In Wu Ming's view, it is the difference between ancient scholar and Ju Ren.
”Congratulations
Viscount Garcia and archbishop took the lead.
”Thank you very much.”
Wu Ming paid close attention to the blue mountain count's biggest opponent. The opposite Viscount Garcia had a kind face. His golden hair was shining in the sun, like a golden lion.
”Viscount Garcia comes from a noble family in the Highlands, and the Earl of blue mountain is an orthodox blue blood leader, and he likes tigers very much. So this war is the fight between lions and tigers?”
He thought interestingly in his mind and called them one by one.
”As far as I know, the holy oil in Wuthering castle is almost exhausted. If Sir William wants to be baptized as soon as possible, our church is willing to help!”
The Archbishop's attitude was quite different from that of that day.
”Sorry...”
Looking at the blue mountain count's displeased face, Wu Ming immediately refused.
After all, he now won the knighthood through the martial arts contest. He is from the blue mountains. Even though the Earl has a good relationship with the church, he can't go to the enemy like this.
”I think you misunderstood...”
The Archbishop's voice was misty: ”I mean, the church only provides holy oil. The seven day ceremony can still be held in the count's castle!”
This condition is too generous, so that Garcia have emerged a trace of deep interest in the expression.
He stares at Wu Ming, and his eyes emit a kind of strange light: ”Sir William has such strength before he has been baptized as a knight. He is absolutely gifted. As far as I know, the more gifted he is, the more benefits he will get from the baptism. How about it now?”
”I'm sorry... It's up to my Lord to decide!”
Wu Ming said politely, but in fact he refused.
Sure enough, the next moment the Earl of blue mountain came: ”Sir William, you have a lot of friends coming!”
”Then we'll leave it alone.”
Three of the most powerful people in Fengying plain look at each other and smile. They all have some indescribable taste.
”Hi! William! It's unbelievable
Baron Terry came over in his tuxedo: ”you are the first nobleman in my territory to be promoted from a civilian!”
Maybe he thought that the other party was really related to him. Now the Baron's expression is very strange.
”Congratulations! Sir William
Takur also congratulated me sincerely.
At this time, William has grown to the same class as him, which seems so incredible.
As for Fred? At this time, we can only salute respectfully.
The gap between him and William has been infinitely widened at the moment, and there is no chance to continue to catch up in his life.
Therefore, he can only show his humility and sincerely hope that Wu Ming can forget the past unhappiness.
As a matter of fact, he wants to think too much. Wu Ming's eyes are always fixed on the whole world and even the universe. He simply ignores the guy who is not in his way.
”Well, let's go to Wuthering castle for the party.”
Baron Terry offered to invite him and said, ”there must be a lot of nobles there who want to know you Have a good time
I don't know why, after hearing his words full of hints, Wu Ming suddenly thought of the gladiators of the ancient Roman era.
Those noble ladies of the Roman Empire also watched the gladiators fight in blood during the day and had an affair with them at night. They were even quite blatant and dissolute.
”Is the erosive life of the nobility already beckoning to me?”
Wu Ming thought to himself, but he didn't refuse, which made several ladies wave their folding fans faster
……
Wuthering castle's banquets are naturally extravagant. In a hall with fountains and flowers, the resplendent chandeliers are shining, the bards and clown musicians are performing constantly, and a beautiful man and woman are walking on the court in the general way of flowers and butterflies. On the tray in their hands are all kinds of delicious wine and silver dishes.
Many elegant, well-dressed ladies and nobles dance and even flirt with each other.
As a new knight, Wu Ming, the recently famous ”swordsman in cloth”, naturally received a very warm reception.
Although in the eyes of some old nobles, he is just a commoner upstart, but more pure look at his handsome appearance and powerful lady.
Just after a circle, he had seven or eight more handkerchiefs and other tokens of love in his arms, so that when he said goodbye to the count of blue mountain in advance, the other side gave him a very understanding look.
……
When he came to the back garden of the castle, a lady with apricot eyes and peach cheeks, about 25 years old, could not wait to meet him. Her cheek was red: ”Sir William, I have watched every game of your game. You are the embodiment of bravery. I never imagined that the warrior could be so powerful...”
”I don't know if jazz is willing to give our sister a small request?”
From the flowers, I don't know when a lady in Imperial costume came out again. Her appearance was similar to that of the one beside her. She giggled and said, ”let's see your other sword skills?”
