Take the ride to dominate the game

Chapter 65
"It seems that your strength is still beyond my original expectation." The Knight of Hundred Flowers glanced at Horace with lingering fear, and said with emotion.

The latter is currently being taken off the thigh armor by four or five servants in a hurry, but due to the extremely exaggerated deformation, it is difficult to take it off.

Horace, on the other hand, was troubled by the constant pain in his leg, and hoarse growls and groans of pain were the only things he could do until the maester's milk of the poppy came.

"It's just that they are too weak." Arthur took off his mask and helmet, took the cloth towel handed over by the attendant, and wiped his sweat.

Winning against these two men relied on absolute strength and leading agility.

When the power gap is wide enough, the technique loses its effect.

Although Arthur felt that he still lacked a little skill, the nobles of the River Bend headed by Loras obviously didn't think so.

In their view, Arthur was already so powerful that he ignored skills.

After all, the brothers Horace and Hopper are both core members of the Redwyne family, the first-line nobles in the Reach.

Judging from the strength of the Redwyne family with nearly [-] soldiers, only the Lannister family, the Rose family, and the Hightower family can surpass his family in the entire continent of Westeros.

That is to say, there are quite a few lord families that are no match for the Redwyne family. How could knights trained with such background be inferior in combat power?

Some clever, second- and third-tier family children who did not pride themselves on their identities had already changed their attitudes and came to chat with the two of them.

Some of them recognized the sword Shuoyue of the Hean family, Earl of Harrenhal, and started the conversation with that.

Arthur openly admitted how it got into his hands, which also confirmed what Patrick had said about killing the wild boar earlier.

As a result, everyone in the River Bend changed their perception of Arthur.

It turned out that what he and his companions said were true, without exaggeration or falsehood.

The clown is me!
This is the feeling of quite a few nobles present.

After today, I am afraid that the reputation of Arthur, a new and powerful warrior, will gradually spread throughout King's Landing.

It is also known as the Kingslayer, Barristan, Knight of Flowers and many other first-line knights in Westeros.

There may be good people who compare whether Arthur's monster power is stronger or the magic mountain's power is stronger.

Before the two officially fought, there must not be too many such arguments.

After chatting for a while and riding a horse to find the feeling of riding a gun for a while, and having a lunch, Arthur, Patrick, Desmond and others left.

They will spend the afternoon preparing for the evening invitation of the Knight of Flowers.

Yes, the Knight of Flowers invited them to a party in the evening again.

Life in the River Bend is rich, and the rose family of the lord is related to the first-line nobles Redwin, Hightower, Rowan and other families, and they communicate frequently. Therefore, the high court of the Rose family often holds grand gatherings, such as Masked Party, masquerade party, etc.

This custom was also brought to King's Landing by them.

Tonight, there will be a small but extremely high-end party.

The participants are all the core children of the first and second tier families in the River Bend, as well as members of the top and second top families of the other six countries recognized by the Rose family.

Third-line earl heirs in relatively remote areas like Patrick, and sworn knights in Riverrun like Desmond are actually not able to enter this kind of gathering.

But the Knight of Flowers also invited the two for Arthur's sake.

This made them both very proud.

It's good to hang out with a fierce guy like Arthur.

……

"You look like a rich man." This was Desmond's evaluation of Arthur.

At this moment, they are heading to the vicinity of the Red Castle.

Arthur, who was dressed in bright yellow silk clothes, was tall and straight, with a handsome appearance, and looked very noble.

Along the way, it has attracted quite a lot of people to turn back.

The oriental dragon-shaped pattern embroidered on the body made the people along the road guess where this prince came from or the top rich man in a foreign land.

After all, the countless big families in Westeros are all well-known by this group of spectators of the power game, but this pattern of stag horns and snake body does not belong to any of them.

And Arthur's demeanor and appearance cannot be kept silent.

Then he can only be a distinguished guest from the Eastern Continent. This is the common view of many people.

"I've been made to look like a little follower." Patrick had a sour look on his face.

His clothes were of the same material as Arthur's, but they just didn't have that glamorous feel, which made the heir of Haijiang City's eyes full of lemons and his stomach full of old vinegar.

"I'm just an ordinary little nobleman." Arthur said modestly.

The eyes of the people on the road and the envy of his companions were not on his mind.

How to build a good relationship with the great nobles in the River Bend is the most important question for him to think about.

Among the major families in the Reach, the Rose family has over [-] troops, the Hightower family has over [-] troops, the Redwin family has nearly [-] troops, the Rowan family has about [-] troops, and there are countless other small families.

With the standing forces of these four families, it may be difficult for each family to come up with several hundred sets of top-level armor, but it is easy for a family of one or two hundred sets to scrape together five or six hundred sets.

Arthur fantasized that it would be great if he could get in touch with all four of them and use his tourney prize money to buy hundreds of sets of armor.

Even if he has already placed an order for two hundred sets of iron armor, who would think that there are too many armors when troubled times are approaching?

Moreover, their armors are all ready-made, and they are made by large workshops, with guaranteed quality control.

The armor produced by the blacksmith shop in Junlin City has to be made on the spot, and it is also a single set, and the quality is not very stable.

The Gala of the Knights of Flowers took place in a courtyard somewhere not far from the king's home, the Red Castle.

This is enough to explain the embarrassing position of the Rose family.

On the one hand, they were the most powerful vassals of the Reach, so rich enough to buy a large courtyard outside the Red Keep.

On the other hand, they are not in the power center of King's Landing City, they are just infinitely close to it.

"You must be Lord Arthur Bracken, right? Please follow me!"

More than a dozen attendants had been waiting outside the courtyard early on, and one of them was clearly ordered to guide Arthur and his companions. After seeing the bright yellow strange pattern and the logo of Haijiang City, he immediately stepped out and approached Come.

Arthur nodded, and in the eyes of attendants and passers-by with different meanings, such as envy and jealousy, he went in silently with his companion.

After passing through the long and narrow corridor, they were able to enter the courtyard, then walked into the building, and walked a long way before reaching the door of a hall.

This shows that the courtyard occupies a fairly large area, which fully demonstrates the financial strength of the Rose family.

The attendant who led the way opened the door for them and made a gesture of inviting them in.

As soon as Pu opened the door, the noisy voices in the hall reached Arthur's ears. There were already many nobles in gorgeous dresses gathered inside, talking and laughing, with different behaviors.

The maids with good faces and outstanding figures carried fruit plates and fine wines to and fro among them, and were often licked by a playboy from time to time.

This is the life of the upper class, Arthur, who attended such a party for the first time, said with emotion.

He took a deep breath and walked into the hall.

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket and ask for a monthly ticket.
