Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory

"I heard about what happened yesterday. You did a good job and did not embarrass the Tyrell family." Garland raised his head slightly and let his servants sort out his clothes. At the same time, he said to Linde beside him: "Bitter The bridge is located in the middle of the Rose Avenue, guarding the most important bridge and a key part of the Reach. All the Dukes of Highgarden have attached great importance to Baron Bitterbridge." As he spoke, he turned to look at Linde and said very seriously : "I need you to see Baron Caswell later and apologize for yesterday's behavior in the most sincere manner. Bear hunter, do you understand?"

"I follow your instructions, Lord Garland." Linde did not show any dissatisfaction, always had an indifferent expression, and did not take the apology to heart at all.

"Well, you can go down now." Garland nodded, and then as if he remembered something, added: "Remember to change your clothes before going."

Lind nodded and left Garland's room. Then he did not immediately go back to the room to change clothes and go to Bitterbridge Castle to apologize. Instead, as usual, he went to the stables, took out Fotimo's horse, and brushed it. , put on the reins and saddle, and then went to Fortimo's room to help him organize his armor.

"The belt of the arm armor needs to be replaced. After setting up camp tonight, you can take it to the cobbler to get a new one." When Fertimo tightened the belt of the arm armor, he saw that the belt was seriously worn and reminded him. Linde said.

"Yes, sir." Linde nodded, and at the same time tightened the belt on Fortimo's back so that the plate armor could fit tightly against his body.

"Okay, leave this to others! What you have to do now is to go to the castle to apologize." Fortimo indicated that it was almost tight, then turned to look at Linde, and said seriously: "You didn't do it yesterday?" It’s time to take action against Laurent Caswell. He must be the future Baron of Bitterbridge. You are just a knight’s squire. You are lucky to be from the Tyrell family. Otherwise, with the character and character of that old guy Caswell, He attaches great importance to his only heir, and I am afraid that he has sent an army to hunt you down. "

Linde did not respond to Fotimo's words. He just put the tools for cleaning the armor on the table, then bowed and left.

After Lind left the room, the servant serving Fotimo said: "This boy is a hunter after all, and he doesn't know the seriousness of the matter. Fortunately, Lord Garland dissuaded him, otherwise..."

The servant only heard half of what he said, because at this moment Fertimo turned his head and looked at him coldly.

"He is my knight squire and may become a knight in the future." Fortimo said with a cold face: "You should call him Lord, or Lord Linde, not this boy."

"I understand, Lord Fotimo." The servant quickly lowered his head and responded in fear.

While Fertimo was teaching the servant, Lind had already returned to his room, put on the clothes that the Tyrell family had prepared for him, and then walked straight towards Tartary Buckwheat Castle.

Tartary Buckwheat Castle was built on the riverside and was integrated with the stone arch bridge over the river by connecting the city wall to the bridgehead.

Last night, when Maester Holly taught the history of Westeros, he specifically talked about the history of Bitterbridge, especially the origin of the name Bitterbridge.

Although more than two hundred years have passed since the massacre, the massacre still has a great impact on this place. It is said that people living here often hear the screams of the massacre, and some people can even see those The ghosts of the dead keep reenacting the massacre.

It is precisely because of these ghost legends that the entire Bitterbridge Castle looks extremely cold. The fearful local residents will not choose to build houses near the castle, but choose a settlement far away from the castle.

This leaves a large open space around Bitterbridge Castle, and there is no obstruction to the view from the city wall.

In Lind's opinion, those ghost legends may have been spread deliberately by the Barons of Bitterbridge in the past generations, in order to leave no obstructions around Bitterbridge Castle and avoid being attacked by others.

Not only the local Caswell family attaches great importance to a military important site like Bitterbridge Castle, which is often renovated and reinforced, but also the Duke of Highgarden and the Tyrell family, the guardian of the southern border, also attaches great importance to it, and will provide it when the Caswell family needs it. At that time, various materials were provided to strengthen the castle. After so many years of reinforcement, Bitter Bridge Castle was more of a pure military castle than a castle for people to live in. It was very difficult to capture the castle from the outside. You can only start from within.

These are all the thoughts that came to Lind's mind after entering Bitterbridge Castle and checking the surrounding situation.

And when he thought about it, he found it a bit ridiculous. He didn't have a single soldier or any foundation at hand, but he wanted to capture a castle. This was not only because of his own random thoughts, but also because of the influence of the memory of the Peacemaker. .

Through continuous training with the guards of the Tyrell family during this period, Peacemaker's energy bar has gone nearly three-quarters. Lind feels that the energy bar should be completely filled before arriving at King's Landing. By then He might be able to activate another character from For Honor.

The advancement of the energy bar not only represents the accumulation of experience points, but also represents the fusion of character experience memories he has obtained. With the fusion of this memory, even Linde has already noticed and made a decision. Some responses, but it will still inevitably be affected. Just like now when he sees a castle, he thinks about how to capture it, and when he sees a person holding a weapon, he thinks about what method he can use to quickly deal with the opponent, etc.

Fortunately, this influence is still within the acceptable range of Linde and can be controlled by Linde. Otherwise, if the influence continues in the long run, Linde will not be sure whether his character will be completely distorted.

However, this does make Lind a little worried. If another For Honor character is activated, will this impact be deepened?

In his wild thoughts, Lind came to the castle hall. At this time, Almon Casway was sitting on the chair in the middle of the hall. Below him were some Bitterbridge Territory residents, who seemed to be dealing with affairs in the territory. .

The white-haired Baron Caswell looks a little frail, but it is not difficult to see from his strong body that he was definitely a powerful warrior when he was young.

When Lind entered the hall, a man dressed as a bachelor standing next to Almon approached his lord's ear and whispered a few words, apparently introducing Lind's identity.

"I want to take a break. You guys will report the rest later." Almon raised his hand to interrupt the report of the people. Then he motioned for the rest of the people in the hall to leave, and then waved to Linde to signal him. walk over.

Lind walked over, saluted Almon, and then followed the etiquette taught to him by Fertimo during this time, very carefully and seriously apologized for yesterday's actions, and hoped to be forgiven by Baron Caswell.

"Lind the Bear Hunter, I have heard the ballads about you. It is not difficult to see that you are a lucky guy to have a healthy body, but my child cannot even hold a sword," Almon looked at him. Linde, waves of lord power accumulated over the years fell on Linde, "You are my guest. As a host, I provide you with food and a safe place to live, but you hurt my child. According to my opinion, I’ll capture you and chop you into pieces, but after all, you are Lord Fotimo’s attendant. I have a very good relationship with Lord Fotimo, and hurting you will cause a rift in my relationship with Lord Fotimo, but I I can’t let you go so easily, doing so will only damage my majesty and make people no longer respect me.”

As he spoke, Almon stood up, walked toward the side door of the hall, and motioned for Lind to follow him.

The group quickly walked out of the hall, passed through a corridor, and came to the open space on the side of the castle.

At this moment, two people were seen on the horse hitch in the open space with their hands tied to it and their backs facing the sky. Because the horse hitch was a little short, they could only kneel on the ground.

Seeing these two people, Linde frowned slightly, because he recognized that one of them was Luo Li, who asked him for swordsmanship last night, and the other gray-haired old man, although it was his first time to see him, But looking at the current situation, one can guess that it should be Raleigh's father, Almon's weapons blacksmith.

Almon Caswell walked not far behind the two of them, raised his hand to signal to an executioner, took the whip from the executioner's hand, then handed it to Linde, and said: "I asked about the matter. The reason is that if this guy didn't come to you to compete with you in swordsmanship, things wouldn't have happened, so he must be punished. His father will also be punished for not teaching his children what dignity and inferiority are, and this executioner I think you’re a good fit, Bear Hunter.”

Linde calmly looked at the whip handed to him and took it.

"Let's start! Beat me until I'm satisfied." Almon walked aside, motioned a servant to kneel down, then sat on the servant's back and said.

Linde said nothing, walked up behind Raleigh and his son, and swung the whip in his hand towards the backs of the two of them.

Although this is only the first time Linde has used a whip, Peacemaker also has the skill to use a whip in his memory, and he is now using it.

Because they were not familiar with each other, the first dozen or so whips were of varying severity, causing some severe damage to the father and son. However, as he gradually became familiar with how to use the whips, the situation changed.

The whips that fell on the father and son looked very serious. Each blow would leave deep marks on the two people's bodies, and even open the flesh. However, this only looked serious. In fact, it was just some flesh wounds that were easy to heal. And after mastering the use of the whip, he directly knocked the father and son unconscious, so that the father and son could not feel the subsequent whipping for the time being, and it also made them look miserable.

"That's enough!" Not long after beating Raleigh and his son unconscious, Almon stopped the execution and said, "If you continue to beat them like this, I will find another weapons blacksmith."

After saying that, he stood up and left, returning to his meeting hall.

Lind returned the whip in his hand to the executioner, looked at Raleigh and his son, and did not go up to untie the two of them. Instead, he turned around and left because he knew very well that if he showed a little bit of concern, then he would be in trouble later. Life would be even harder for the Raleighs at Bitterbridge Castle.

Although the matter has been resolved smoothly, Linde is in a very bad mood, and he is even more eager to have a noble status. Otherwise, things like this will continue to happen today, no matter how superb his swordsmanship is, among those nobles In his eyes, he is nothing more than a powerful thug.

"Has the matter been resolved?" After Linde returned to the station, Fortimo called him over and asked.

Linde nodded, and then told the story again.

"Are you feeling aggrieved?" Fotimo said after hearing this.

"A little bit." Linde said truthfully.

Fertimo nodded, and then said earnestly: "You have ambitions and abilities, and you will do a lot in the future, but before you become full-fledged, you'd better curb your ambitions and ideas, and don't let them People see, I don’t want something like this to happen again, do you understand?”

"Understood, sir." Linde responded.

"Today's incident should be taken as a lesson. You must remember your current identity clearly. Once you forget your identity, you will do things inconsistent with your identity. Some things may not be a problem, but some things are enough. Fatal." Fertimo continued: "If Baron Caswell intends to make things big this time, he can claim that we violated the rights of guests and harmed the descendants of the host after eating the food provided by the host. In that case, even Lord Garland will be implicated, and you will be handed over by the Tyrell family without hesitation to quell Baron Caswell's anger."

Linde did not speak, but his expression became solemn due to Fotimo's words.

"Although you have superb swordsmanship and a bright future, that is only the future. You will only be my attendant for a long time in the future, and in the eyes of the big man, there is no difference between you and other soldiers. You You have become my knight attendant from the beginning, and your own abilities have caused you to have some illusions. Now I need to correct your illusions." Fertimo pointed to the Tyrell guard soldiers on the table. Wearing clothes, he said: "You don't have to serve me during this period, and you don't have to do the things I told you. You just stay in the scout team and be an ordinary soldier. When will you get military merit, when will you come back to be my "

"Yes, sir." Linde did not defend or pray, but calmly responded to Fotimo's order.

Linde's calm reaction surprised Fortimo. He looked at Linde, as if to confirm whether Linde really understood what he meant or was just angry. However, the look on Linde's face remained the same. He couldn't see any information, so he could only wave Linde to leave, and secretly observe Linde in the past few days to see if Linde had really realized his problem.

Regarding the fact that Lind joined the scout team, although some of the Tyrell family's guarding soldiers were gloating and some felt sorry for it, no matter how different their ideas were, they were all surprised by this incident, and as for the scout team, they were all surprised. They said that Linde's joining made them extremely happy. After all, the joining of a strong man like Linde would make their next journey safer.
