Ark's Journey to the Demon God
Page 13
The streets were filled with people, and the groceries on the streets were all half-priced. People rushed to tell each other the news of victory, and the streets were filled with happiness and joy.
On the main road in the center of the Grand Knight Territory, tens of thousands of people crowded on both sides of the road. Today, Casimir's hero, Silver Spear Pegasus, will return here. At the instruction of the Grand Knight Commander, flowers were placed on both sides of the road to hold a ceremony. There was a welcoming ceremony attended by tens of thousands of people, and all the arriving people rejoiced. They were waiting for the city gate of the Great Knight to open to welcome the hero in triumph.
Click, click, click—
The iron gate rang and the door opened.Under the spotlight, Silver Spear Pegasus appears.
However, what caught people's eyes was not the glorious great knights, but a group of soldiers.
They wore broken armor and held almost broken lances in their hands. Cyril, the leader, held a big sword in his hand, and his face was covered with scars and dust.
Behind him was Shen Muke, who was holding a flag. He was still wearing the mixed clothes of Ursus and Casimir. He was holding a military flag embroidered with chess pieces in his hand, but at this time, the military flag had been soaked in flames and gunpowder smoke. become broken.People looked at this group of soldiers and forgot to cheer, forget to applaud, and even forgot to think.
"Mom? Why are the heroes' clothes so shabby?" An innocent voice sounded from the crowd.
"Baby, be good, the heroes have suffered so much for us, you should also learn from them."
"Ok!"
After a brief silence, the crowd suddenly burst into cheers, and countless people shouted crazily:
"Silver Pegasus! Our hero! Casimir's pride!"
"Knights live forever! Knights are immortal!"
People shouted, calling everyone's name, throwing flowers to the knights, and the applause from the crowd resounded through the sky.
"Look, Agaritu. This is what I want you to see. The people's praise and praise are better than all medals and awards. We don't need any medal ceremony, as long as these are enough."
"You are right, Sir Cyril. At this moment, we have been crowned with the crown of righteousness."
Chapter No.17 New journey, new travel companions
There is nothing noteworthy about the investiture ceremony.
Shen Muke spent the entire boring process almost expressionlessly.
In his eyes, the so-called honorary ceremony is a group of people dressed neatly, and then walking on the stage one by one. After the official presiding over the ceremony reads a large set of "scene words" in praise of their virtues, the honorees are given ribbons and medals. After that, the recipient will pull out the sword from his waist, give a victory speech to the sword, and then leave. Then a group of people will gather around to congratulate the recipient.
"For this ceremony, it's better to have two more bites of rice."
As a native Chinese citizen, Shen Muke had no interest in red tape, but he was very interested in the banquet held after the medal ceremony. Seeing the ceremony end, Shen Muke quickly found the feeling of eating in the countryside.six ⑨ four ⑨ three ⑥ one ③ five
( ̄▽ ̄) Drinking and singing, there is no geometry in life, in Shen Muke’s opinion at this time, there is no geometry, it’s all about drinking!
The high-intensity fighting in recent days had almost hollowed out his body, and he felt that he had lost at least ten kilograms compared to when he had just traveled through time.
He sat in front of the banquet without any influence, with a steak in his left hand and a drink in his right hand, fruit and dessert in his arms, eating and drinking like no one else.
The Knight's Dinner is not originally a banquet with the theme of eating. Its biggest function is to make friends.
Because it is different from ordinary recognition of military merit, knights are not just wearing medals and ribbons, but also have substantial rewards, such as land and titles.
In the Silver Spear Pegasus Knights, there was only one named knight (commonly called a long knight), Cyril Linguang. He was a long knight, so his family and his direct blood relatives all had the surname Linguang. It is their surname and they are proud of it. Their family has an inherited fiefdom.
The other members are all "cavalry" without titles and cannot be called knights at all.
But things are different now. The 80 people of Silver Spear Pegasus have made such a shocking achievement. Even if they don’t give them titles and lands, the people will not agree.
So at this honoring ceremony, a total of 79 "knights" were born at once, each of whom had a title. However, because Shen Muke was not from Casimir, he was only made an honorary knight and only received a large bonus. , no land was given.
Fortunately, Shen Muke had no need for Casimir's land anyway, and he didn't know how to farm, so why did he need those things?It's better to take this opportunity to eat two more bites of food and make up for what was owed to yourself during this period.
And because he was just an "outsider", it was especially quiet here. No one came to chat, so he ate and drank without anyone gossiping.
Cyril and others were surrounded and kept answering various questions. The old Pegasus took the trouble, but there was no way, these people wouldn't let him leave.
Gawain saw the opportunity, squeezed out from the crowd, and came to Shen Muke's side.
"My God, you are very relaxed now."
"Of course, because I am an outsider." Shen Muke chewed the mutton chops in his mouth and said vaguely:
"No one cares about what you did before. They only know that you now hold a large amount of land and manor, so they flock to you and come to lick you at all costs."
"Hey, I used to look forward to my own honoring ceremony. If I had known it would be so troublesome, why not be like you and just get a bonus and a title instead of a fiefdom."
"Don't say that." Shen Muke looked at him and said, "I don't want it because I didn't have a chance. But you are different. Your descendants have to live by this. You are throwing your own life away. You worked hard for it, why don’t you want it?”
"Hey, that's true." Gawain nodded and said, "It's time for me to get married. My mother sent me a letter before, saying that she had found a match for me in my hometown. She would go back after I finish my work here. marry."
"Then I wish you well in advance, Knight Chasing the Wind."
"Thank you for your blessing, [Jieden] Knight."
The two looked at each other affectionately, and then became awkward.
"Here I go, I thought this account was pretty cool when I thought about it. Why do I feel so ashamed when I hear it from other people's mouths?!"
"You also said that you got it on your own anyway, but you guys called me [Jie Dian] on your own initiative. What did I say?"
Shen Muke leaned on the chair and asked doubtfully: "By the way, where are the master blacksmiths? We are attending a dinner here, where are they?"
"The blacksmith group has been disbanded. They were originally formed by temporarily recruiting young people. Now that the war is over, each person has been given 3000 silver coins. They should be packing their bags now and will probably go home to recuperate."
"3000 silver coins is not a small amount in Casimir. The Grand Knight Commander is really willing to give it." Even Shen Muke, who had made great achievements as an honorary knight, was only rewarded
silver.
"Hey, if you can't give me the land treasures, can't you give me back the silver coins?"
"Speaking of which, where is the one-eyed old master? I haven't seen him since the war ended."
"That person, the head of the blacksmith doesn't know him very well. He only said that he is from outside. No one knows his name, but his craftsmanship is really good!"
Indeed, although Shen Muke used Hanpa's technology to draw the drawings, without the craftsmanship of that master, they would be nothing but skilled women.
"Oh, by the way, I remember that you encountered Ursus' drone swarm while I was sleeping. How did you deal with it?"
As his family knew his own affairs, Shen Muke prepared a large set of drawings, all of which were aimed at land forces. There was no machinery to deal with technological products such as drones.
"Well, we are using the design of the one-eyed old master. Speaking of which, his craftsmanship is so good that he can make such small and exquisite props..."
Gawain reached for his cloak and said:
"I still have one left, take a look."
He stretched out his hand and took out a cylinder about a foot long with a lead wire on it.
"Look, this is it. Pull this thread with your hand, and then this little thing will explode, and it will explode twice!"
Gawain held this gadget excitedly. He couldn't put it down for this interesting weapon. Although Lord Cyril explicitly asked them to destroy all mechanical props, he still kept one as a souvenir in private.
When Shen Muke looked at this thing, he felt his head pounding, as if he could see the sun through the clouds, and all the clues before and after were connected together:
"What's the name of this thing?"
"That master said, it seems to be called, Er Kick?"
Shen Muke stood up abruptly and ran outside in a hurry.
"Hey, Agaritu? Where...are you going?"
Gawain froze on the spot, confused.
……
Under the moonlight, the one-eyed old blacksmith hummed a tune and walked on the road with his luggage on his back.
"He" had been in this country for too long, and he saw a rare show before leaving. This was really an unexpected joy.
clatter clatter~
There was the sound of wings vibrating in the air, and in front of the old blacksmith, a pigeon flew from behind.
The pigeon landed on the stone, and then flapped its feathers. After the thick clouds and mist passed around, Shen Muke appeared.
[Hampa's Transformation Technique], although Shen Muke can only turn into a pigeon now, the speed of birds is much faster than running on two legs.
Watching the young man in front of me hurriedly
When they arrived, the old blacksmith smiled and said hello:
"Hey, little brother, long time no see. I didn't expect that in addition to machinery, you also know the magic of transformation, hahaha..."
"No matter how good I am at transformation, I can't compare to your ability, Master Blacksmith."
Shen Muke stared at him and spoke word by word.
The old blacksmith blinked: "What are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"
"Stop pretending, your tail is exposed, Nian."
Hee hee, was discovered?
Flames, blazing flames mixed with clouds and mist, ignited around the old blacksmith, and then quickly covered his figure. When the clouds and mist dissipated, all disguises were revealed——
The long hair as white as snow, casually tied up, is topped with a pair of fiery red horns, like crystal coral on the snow. Under a pair of long eyebrows are playful purple eyes, the pointed ears are exquisite, and the small nose is slightly Lifting up, mouth full of pleasure.
Her appearance is somewhat similar to that of Ling in Shen Muke's dream, and she also has the same skin as Shuang Saixue.She wears a white coat lined with bright red, exposing her delicate lower abdomen and navel. She holds a folding fan in her right hand, and behind her is a dragon tail with white scales and flames.
"Hehe, did you recognize me immediately? I probably haven't seen you before." The hot beauty in front of her bent down and approached Shen Muke and asked with a smile.
Shen Muke took a step back and said a little cautiously: "Of course you haven't seen me, but I have seen your sister."
"Sister? Am I a sister?" Nian was confused. She was the ninth oldest among several older brothers and sisters.
"Ling, I have met Sister Ling."
"Oh~" Nian hammered his right hand. This made sense. Sister Ling, you like drinking. So why don't you say too much if you drink too much? I understand...
"Xiao Guo Guo (brother), what are you doing here with me?"
What?
This sentence stopped Shen Muke and asked, why did he follow him?
"What...nothing else, I just want to thank you in person."
Shen Muke already figured out why he liked the stove so much, why his plan went so smoothly, and why the attack of the [Snake Scale] was counterattacked.
It's all because Younian is helping him.
So when faced with Nian's inquiry, Shen Muke decisively chose the most correct and least important among many reasons.
"Oh~( ̄▽ ̄~)~." Nian nodded, "Then? Don't you have any expression?"
express?
Shen Muke stayed where he was. He had never thought about this. At this moment, he regretted, very regretful, why he chose such a lame excuse. Moreover, because of nervousness, his old habit of not speaking at critical moments happened again.
Seeing Shen Muke's clumsy look, Nian couldn't help laughing, chuckled, and decided to give the boy in front of her a step up. She walked to Shen Muke and patted his shoulder:
"Okay, I accept your wishes. I also watched a good show. You and I don't owe each other anything."
Seeing that Nian was about to leave after saying these words, Shen Muke really didn't want the person in front of him to disappear without a trace again, so he finally made up his mind and said:
"Where are you going? Back to Yan Country?"
"Hmm~ I haven't decided yet." Nian tapped his chin with a folding fan and thought:
"There's nothing to do when I go back to Dayan now. I have to listen to those old men in Sisitai nagging me. It's boring."
"Then, do you want to travel with me?" Shen Muke invited.
"Travel?" Nian asked in surprise, "Where are you going? I won't go if it's not fun."
"Don't worry." Shen Muke said with a smile: "It will definitely be more fun than when you go back to Yan country and listen to the nagging."
"That's great." Nian mentioned her baggage, and she was already looking forward to it. "When are you leaving?"
"If you want, you can leave now...but I have to write something first."
