Chapter 182 Lantern Festival

Lester said that there are indeed several treasure maps handed down in the Avalorin royal family's treasury, but to say 'many' would be an exaggeration.

This was also his helpless move. The head of the Arnold family was very mysterious and rarely appeared in front of the world, let alone knowing what his hobbies were.

During the treasure hunt, he unexpectedly discovered that the Knights of the Apocalypse seemed to have a strange obsession with treasures, so Lester chose a roundabout way to develop a deeper relationship with the Arnold family.

Moreover, the Avalorin royal family does not have the ability to obtain the treasures on the treasure map. If the Apocalypse Knights can be interested in them and have a good impression of them, it can be said to be a multi-purpose achievement.

Ron glanced at him and immediately knew the other person's intention, so he didn't reject it. Why not take the free gift?

He nodded slowly and said: "I understand what Mr. Lester means. You can discuss the specific matters with the deputy head of the Knights. You have the basis for cooperation. I believe that the next step will satisfy both of us. the result of."

Lester was extremely excited and sincerely thanked: "Thank you, Mr. Arnold, for agreeing. It is our honor to cooperate with your family."

Afterwards, Lester said goodbye and left with an excited mood. He walked out of the Baron's Mansion, the smile on his face still uncontrollable.

"Your Majesty the Duke, are we going back to China now?" Seeing Lester coming out, the groom asked.

"No, go to the Magic Academy first."

In Miracle City, Magic Academy.

Because it is a newly built special college, it is not a lively place. Compared to the central area of ​​the city, it seems quiet.

A chic and luxurious carriage stopped at the entrance of the college. As soon as Leicester stepped out of the carriage, a gatekeeper knight stepped forward and said with a serious face: "Sir, the college is closed during classes. If you have any business, please come in." Please submit your visit letter in advance.”

Encountering this situation, Lester was surprised. He suddenly thought of the rumors that the head of the Arnold family attached great importance to the education of students, and even specially awarded "scholarships" to the top students. Seeing the attitude of the gatekeeper knight, it seemed that the rumors were very So empty.

This is very important information!
Lester remembered it in his heart, and then smiled: "Mr. Knight, I respect your responsibilities very much. Please inform the college, I..."

After struggling for a long time, Lester was finally able to enter the academy and meet his nephew and niece.

"Stanley, Agatha. How are you doing?"

"Uncle Lester."

"It's very good. There's nothing that makes me uncomfortable here. There are holidays every week, so I can move around freely." Stanley said excitedly, and he talked endlessly about his experience.

Lester smiled, listening and nodding.

"Uncle Lester, you're not just here to see us, right?" Agatha was calmer and saw something.

"Well, this time the mission entrusted to me by His Majesty has been completed, and I will return to the country soon. I came to the academy this time to tell you not to cause trouble everywhere, but now it seems that I am worrying too much."

Lester said that Agatha was okay, she had a cold temperament and would not do evil to others at will, but Stanley was more reckless and he was afraid that Stanley would accidentally offend a 'big shot', which would be a bad thing.

Both of them had received royal education and were not stupid. They understood the meaning of this sentence alone.

"Uncle Lester, what's going on?"

Faced with the two men's questioning, Lester did not explain in detail. Now only the Avalorin royal family knows that the Arnold family has two fifth-level powerhouses. This is very important information and must not be exposed, so he does not Will tell both of them.

"You don't have to worry about it. You just need to know that you must not offend the people of the Arnold family, and don't show your temper and cause trouble everywhere. Of course, if you can still make friends with the people of the Arnold family, I think His Majesty will appreciate you."

Lester reminded him and finally said: "Okay, I have to return home immediately and report to His Majesty."

Stanley and Agatha looked at each other and had no choice but to give up.

-

As time goes by, the number of residents in Miracle City is increasing, with the permanent population exceeding 20.

This number is still much less than the 50 or [-] people in the Royal Capital, but it is undeniable that the prosperity of Miracle City has surpassed that of the Royal Capital.

Every street and alley is full of life. Even if you go the wrong way, you can encounter small vendors selling their products and a group of children playing and playing, highlighting the vitality.

Therefore, Ron issued the final policy.

"Festival of Lights? What is that?"

Rosalind was puzzled and asked aloud.

Although Joyce on the side had heard about it for the first time, she was fully involved in Ron's policy arrangements and had some suspicions in her heart.

"It's an entertainment festival, you can understand it as a grand ceremony."

Ron explained in a calm tone that the previous policies were to develop the territory and expand influence; and this last policy was for the sake of the people and the future. He could not give any more explanations.

"Lord, what do we need to do?" Rosalind asked enthusiastically. Since it is a grand ceremony, she has already thought of many ways to earn gold coins.

Ron glanced at her and said: "On the day of the Lantern Festival, all residents of the Arnold Territory have a full day off, and they can enjoy the festival freely."

Hearing this, the two women looked surprised. Didn't they work all day long?So how to enjoy the festival?
Later, Ron told his plan. The 'Light Festival' is simply a large-scale national entertainment event.Since it is an entertainment activity, there must be entertainment items, and Ron is very familiar with this aspect. He briefly summarized several activities for the citizens to participate in, which made Rosalind's eyes sparkle.

As for the so-called 'Festival to Enjoy Freely', it is the residents' own wish to open shops as usual on that day, and it does not prevent them from participating in the event.

As for the impact of a day's downtime, with the productivity of Arnold Territory today, it's not much of a loss.

Several people chatted about the details that needed to be paid attention to during the Lantern Festival, and Joyce finally asked: "Lord, do you want the Ministry of Information to..."

Ron shook his head: "No, this is our own festival, no need to promote it."

Hearing this, Joyce immediately understood that she had been in a high position for a long time, looked at issues from a different perspective than others, and knew exactly what such a choice meant.

A festival that only belongs to the people of Arnold. This represents the attitude of the lord towards the people of the territory. Its importance is self-evident.

"I understand. I will make a plan according to your wishes later and notify all departments to jointly prepare for the Lantern Festival."

"Well, let's do it."

The 'Light Festival' and other grand events could not be concealed, and it was soon known that this was the first time for the citizens to experience it. They asked their friends who might know about it, and they only got one answer -

The lord specially organized a grand ceremony for the people of Arnold.

Soon, the lord's palace issued an official document, and half a month later the annual 'Lighting Festival' was held. At the end of the official document, there was a holiday blessing from the lord to all the people of Arnold.

As soon as this official document came out, the whole territory exclaimed with joy, and expectations and yearning for the Lantern Festival surged in their hearts.

But it was more of a reverence for the lord.

Some people who came to Arnold's territory heard about this and chose to stay for another half month, curious to see what the 'Light Festival' was.

Thanks to the planning of various departments, various activities of the Lantern Festival were prepared smoothly, and the streets in Miracle City presented a lively atmosphere with lights and colorful decorations.

The street lamps on the street were also decorated with colorful colors, and almost all stores were hung with colorful fireworks.

Various temporary stalls have been set up, as if they are preparing some goods here. A platform has risen from the ground in the city square. Right in front of it stands a majestic stone sculpture of Lord Ron riding a horse.

Half a month passed by in a flash, and finally the much-anticipated Lantern Festival ushered in. Although this matter was not published in the newspapers, it still attracted much attention from the outside world.

In addition to participating in their personal capacity, business group leaders and foreign royal families also intervened without any sense. It seems that Joyce and others have already said hello.

This morning, a carriage set off from the Baron's Palace, accompanied by the King of Knights and the Twelve Knights of the Round Table. They all wore the attire of their respective knights, showing off their elegance.

"Look, it's the Twelve Knights of the Round Table!"

As soon as they entered the city, they aroused exclamations from the people. Some people sighed, "I didn't expect to see all the Knights of the Round Table at once. The person sitting in the carriage must be the lord. Only the lord can travel to let all the knights." Accompanied by the Knights of the Round Table.”

When the people around heard this, they all looked at the carriage from afar with pilgrim eyes. Some even choked up and fell to the ground, but no one said anything to him.

"Lord Lord!"

Someone shouted excitedly, and the others followed suit. For a moment, the streets were filled with people, and more people looked over.

But there were one or two people in the crowd who looked surprised. It had only been more than a year, but they felt as if they had lived in a different world. They looked at each other and then chose to follow the carriage.

"Miss Heidi, let's go quickly. This is your first time here and you may not know that the person in the carriage is the benefactor you have been talking about."

Hearing this, the girl with aqua hair and a white mask flashed her eyes and nodded slightly as she stared straight in the direction the carriage was leaving.

The man smiled and said: "Speaking of which, the Baron promised me the best piece of land. Now it seems that I have made a lot of money."

the other side.

The lord's carriage arrived at the square. Under the protection of the knights, Ron climbed onto the high platform. With the help of amplifying magic props, his voice reached the ears of the people present.

"Arnold's subjects, I am your lord - Ron Arnold."

Cheers rang out, and it took a long time for them to quiet down.

"More than a year ago, Arnold territory was attacked by monsters."

When Ron talked about the predecessor of Miracle City, most of the people present were those who had experienced it. They felt deeply and resonated with it.

"Miracle City was built by us together. It belongs to all of us in Arnold Territory! Today, we are holding a Lantern Festival to celebrate. I wish you all a smooth future and everything you wish for."

As the words fell, fireworks bloomed on the high platform and sprinkled in the sky, heralding the start of the Lantern Festival.

"It's great. My benefactor has never changed. He is still so kind." The girl said with emotion.

"Miss Heidi, why not also contribute to the Lantern Festival and make this festival more lively. I think the Baron will be very happy."
