Transcendent Noble

A convoy moved slowly on the wide road. A dozen well-armed cavalry lined up in two rows. The team is tall and burly elite soldiers.

Nicole is riding a particularly strong horse at the forefront of the team. Maroon’s long hair is blowing in the wind, her facial features are bright and beautiful, and her silver lady’s armor is elegant in shape, and her body-fitting design outlines lithe and The graceful curve, with exquisite patterns carved on it, looks beautiful and strong. Thinking of seeing my sweetheart soon, Nicole's red lips are as delicate as petals and a faint smile. The combination of feminine femininity and Knight's heroism shows a moving charm that attracts the cavalry around him from time to time. To her.

Bruce looked through the car window and looked a little weird. He didn't expect that Nicole, who was always shy and shy, would still have such a burning side after becoming Knight. About to return to Black Castle Town, Nicole did not stay in her carriage, but instead put on a tailor-made Knight armor and rode on her horse, for fear that others might not know that she was a Dame.

Knight's full body armor is made of iron essence, even women's armor weighs 150 pounds. This amount of weight can't be considered for Knight, but the hard armor is uncomfortable to wear after all. Therefore, Bruce would rather stay in his carriage in a comfortable hunting outfit.

This time, Bruce and Nicole escorted Master Edwin back to the Silver Tower in El Kingdom. The round trip traveled more than 8,000 kilometers and lasted six months. In fact, it only takes four months for them to return to the family territory, but Master Edwin asked the Forging Master of the Silver Tower to tailor a Dame armor for Nicole. Therefore, they stayed for nearly two months.

Bruce is Knight, but he doesn't know that Dame and Knight are completely different creatures. Seeing to be home soon, there is a beautiful new armor that does not come out, is it still Dame?

A strand of long hair was wrapped around Nicole's white and slender fingers. After six months, Maroon's short hair became smooth and smooth again. Whenever she played with her hair, Nicole would think of Victor's silhouette and his courage to face ogre when she was most desperate. That scene has been deeply imprinted in her memory and will never be forgotten.

"What kind of expression will Victor look like when he sees me again? Lilia, that girl should have become his personal maid? Has Lilia been with him, has he missed me?" The towering black castle It's already clearly visible, but Nicole's heart is soft.

A group of galloping riders interrupted Dame's reverie. Nicole stared at him and found that it was the family's messenger. The three riders also saw Nicole's team, and all showed joyful expressions, pulling the reins and running towards the team. Bruce noticed the movement outside and walked off the carriage.

"Master Bruce! Master Nicole!" Three savvy riders jumped off their horses and saluted Nicole and Bruce.

"What happened?" Bruce asked with a frown. The one-man and two-horse couriers must have urgent information to transmit, and they must come straight to the convoy to transmit information to themselves and Nicole.

"Master count issued a war order, requiring all family Knights to return to the Black Fort. This is Master count's warrant." One of the first riders handed a sheepskin scroll to Bruce.

Receiving the warrant from Count York, Bruce and Nicole looked at each other, and both saw the solemnity and shock in each other's eyes.

In order to rule the vast territory, the lord implemented the Feudal System. Because the income of the territory mainly comes from land ownership, the lords will provide a large piece of land in the property, including farms, villages, villagers, livestock, mills and all other incidental properties, as Fiefdom, and provide them to the vassals. In addition to paying offerings to the lord, vassals must also train armed forces to defend their Fiefdom. When necessary, they must respond to the lord’s call and mobilize all their forces to join the lord’s army. This is a war order.

Bruce, as the Knight of the York family, owns 7000 acres of Fiefdom, a farm, a village, a horse farm, and more than 700 residents. Bruce not only organizes production, but also supports 20 soldiers and trains all young leaders. Usually Bruce served in the family and received a Knight annuity, but the family would not recruit his soldiers. But once a war order is issued, Bruce must lead all his armed forces, including soldiers and all militias, to join the family's army and receive unified command.

Issuing a war order means that all the adult male leaders of the family must be armed to participate in the battle, and the production activities in the territory will be minimized, which requires the family's savings for many years. Therefore, before the moment of life and death, the lord will not easily issue war orders.

Bruce unrolled the scroll and read it carefully, his face became extremely serious.

"My wife and child are there now?"

The messenger replied respectfully: "Your wife has arrived in Black Castle Town with all the villagers she belongs to."

Bruce sighed in relief, his wife is also a family trainee Knight, even in the face of such a disaster, she will not be as helpless as an ordinary person.

"What the hell happened?" Nicole asked Bruce.

Although Nicole is also Knight, he doesn't have Fiefdom yet, so naturally he can't receive the war order. However, Nicole is the dísciple of the Great Knight Tracey family and her vassal. At this moment, she must follow Tracey to fight for the family. What's more, Tracey funded and commissioned Edwin to customize a set of Knight armor for her. The cost alone was 7000 goldsore. This shows that Nicole has a close relationship with the family.

"A large group of monsters attacked the entire Centaur Hills, Porta Baron Castle was captured, Baron was killed in battle. The Viscount Kovanan was captured, and the Viscount’s army was wiped out. Only the Viscount and his subordinates Knight successfully broke through. The family's fangs Legion was hit hard, Fimit Knight was killed in battle, Uval Knight was killed in battle," Bruce said painfully.

A feeling of grief surged in Nicole’s heart. Fimit and Uval were both Knights of the York family and officers of the Fang Legion. Even they were killed in battle, indicating that the Fang Legion It was really hit hard.

"Let’s go! Back to the Black Fort!"

Bruce jumped on a horse and rushed towards the Black Fort. Nicole and all the cavalry followed closely from behind, like the setting sun in blood. A long silhouette was drawn behind them. At this moment, if you look down from the sky, you will find countless teams converging towards Black Castle Town. The family war order has already been issued, and it is time for all people to unite.

————————————

The road in the south of Black Castle Town is built along the banks of the black liquid river. The heavy rain for several days makes the road extremely muddy. A group of cavalry galloped towards Black Castle Town, their sturdy war horses snorted, and their hooves flew up to bring up large swaths of sludge.

Lilia rides on a war horse, complexion pale, her smooth forehead is covered with fine beads of sweat, but her bright eyes reveal a strong look. Some people collapsed in the face of the ordeal, while others were sublimated. The journey from Victor to Black Castle Town was more than 20 days, but Lilia just shortened it to ten days. Her tenacious will made the cavalry guarding her also. Moved by it. Black Castle Town is already in sight, and when he walks here, the cavalry around Lilia has changed from more than twenty to more than ten. High-intensity marching is not something everyone can persevere.

Lilia saw the south gate of Black Castle Town, and also saw the shadow of the war. A group of vehicles loaded with supplies drove into Black Castle Town, and empty carriages left Black Castle Town. Drive out. The caravans waiting to pay taxes to enter the city in the past are gone, and the hotels and stables that serve the caravans are also empty, with no silhouette in sight. The city wall is full of people, all archers holding crossbows. Looking east along the city wall, countless people are using stones and mud to enclose a gap in the city wall, where it was originally reserved for the construction of an auxiliary fort.

The York family is preparing for a defensive battle! Who is their enemy? An endless army of Ant-Man appeared in Lilia's mind, causing her heart to sink to the bottom.

After Lilia showed her identity, she was not subjected to too many interrogations and hardships. The soldiers defending the city directly told Lilia to go to Black Fort to find the clerk Max. He was responsible for receiving the family members of the lord who came to take refuge.

With the assistance of Kahn, Lilia squeezed away the panicked crowd and walked towards the Black Fort. The buildings in the trade zone and the vassal zone have been demolished, the dismantled building materials were sent to build the city wall, and densely packed sheds were built on the open space, and the free citizens outside the city apparently also took refuge in the city.

In the Black Fort, Lilia met Max, the clerk who usually pays attention to elegant manners, dressed in leather armor and long sword on the waist and hips, looking ready to go to the battlefield at any time.

"Mrs. Lilia, I'm about to send an envoy to Baron Victor. Didn't expect you to have arrived." Max was silent for a while and continued: "Did Victor be attacked by the monster? ?"

"Yes, the monster entered our territory from the entrance of Great Swamp, and the hill camp has been captured."

Lilia bit her bloodless lips When she entered Black Castle Town, she already knew that it was not just Victor leading the monster tide, but a full-blown outbreak. In this case, how can the York family send troops to support Victor?

Lilia settled down and described the situation of the general to Max in detail.

"Master Victor is a real lord!" Hearing that Victor held on to the end in order to cover the retreat of the leader, Max couldn't help being moved. He didn't expect the seemingly weak Baron Victor to have such responsibility and courage.

Lord abandoning the territory in the war against monsters and orcs means losing the legal ownership of the territory. Sticking to the territory and protecting the people are the foundation of the cooperation between Radiance Church and the nobles. However, there are not many lords who truly coexist and die with the territory. Knight has formed a bloodline for thousands of years. Even if he loses his status as a lord, there is no need to worry about not having a family to take him in. In fact, if it weren't for the preservation of Alchemy Tower, Victor would have run away long ago. Everyone knows the truth about the loss of land.

"Master Max, I hope the York family can help us clean up the monsters in the territory." Lilia asked with a hoarse voice. Although Victor is not a vassal of the York family, his interests are deeply linked, and Count York, with the title of Governor of Centaur Hills, has the responsibility to help the lord clean up the monster.

Max was a bit displeased. The family has reached the point of life and death. There is still time to rescue Baron Victor, and Baron is probably already dead. Without a castle, without Knight, Max doesn't think Victor can survive the ant tide. However, Max had no intention of stimulating Lilia. At this time, it would be good to absorb more manpower. At least the girl in front of her had more than 400 young men in her hands. A little arming would be a good cannon fodder.

Max pondered and asked: "Mrs. Lilia, how many monsters does Victor have?"

"There are probably more than 20,000, maybe more, and I am not quite clear." Lilia replied in a low voice.

Max shook the head with a wry smile. "It must be more than 20,000. There is a Great Swamp exit in Victor, and there are three such exits in Centaur Hills. Let me tell you the truth, the monsters from the other two exits have exceeded 70,000 and enter Victor. The number of monsters will not be less than 30,000, maybe more than that."

"The Porta Baron leader that connects to the exit of the swamp has fallen, Baron Castle has been breached, and Porta Baron has died in battle. Another exit, the Viscount Kovanan was also occupied by the monster. The Viscount’s army was completely wiped out by the monster. The Viscount Kovanan only took his Knight to escape by chance."

"Now, there are thirty thousand. Only the monster is besieging the castle in Telland Count. Velpin Baron Castle is also besieged by the monster. Therefore, we are not yet able to destroy the monster led by Victor." Max said regretfully.

Looking at big tears rolling down Lilia’s eyes, Max comforted: "We have asked the kingdom and the church for help. Bishop Pierot is coming with Paladin, and the kingdom will definitely send The Knight regiment supports us. When the time comes, we will definitely eliminate the monsters led by Victor. Before that, your people can enter Black Castle Town to take refuge, but they must obey our enlistment."

"I To see Mrs. Sylvia, Victor has important things to pass on to her." Lilia said solemnly, she could only pin her hopes on the brick at this time, although she herself did not believe that this unremarkable brick could save her life.

"Mrs. Count is very busy now, I can pass on something for you." Max said coldly, and he became increasingly impatient with Lilia.

"No need!" Lilia stood up and walked out the door. Victor had instructed that the bricks should never be given to others.

Out of the black castle, Lilia finally couldn't hold it.

How can the York family powerless to defend himself help Victor? Maybe this brick was just an excuse for Victor to let himself escape. Thinking of this, Lilia sat softly on the ground, crying loudly.

"Lilia!"

A familiar voice made Lilia lift up her dim tears, and the heroic Dame Nicole came into view.
