Chapter 499 The Contemporary Knight

Dorothy thought Shade was prepared for this Talking, but talking, only to realize that Shade seems to really understand.

“The forerunner of the Knight novel was the epic. But unlike traditional hero tales, the protagonist of the Knight novel is mostly a solo struggle for a personal cause, and sometimes purely for adventure, often in imaginary circumstances.

As Knight's novel develops to the contemporary era, with the decline of the Knight class, the elements of adventure in the story are constantly weakening, but the elements of love and lust are increasing, so some dirty creation Sect is derived."

Shade shook his head slightly:

“In my opinion, compared with the ancient Knight novels hundreds of years ago, the contemporary Knight novels are gradually abandoning the spirit of the Knight, and in order to defend love, honor Or the spirit of knight-errant displayed by religion. But it is also understandable, after all, the real knight class has disappeared, the source of creation has disappeared, then literary creation is like duckweed without roots on the water, no matter how good it looks , as long as you touch it, you will know that the bottom is very empty."

"That's a good idea!"

Professor Mulder Goethe said with a glass of wine.

This bearded middle age person indeed has several points of the temperament of a literary giant. He not only has outstanding achievements in prose creation, but also has several points of accomplishments in popular literature.

Others also whispered in agreement with Shade's opinion. It's not how well Shade said it, but in this era, it has become the norm for high-society writers to criticize Knight's novels. While not all Knight novels tend to be low-level, it's certainly no longer fitting for the age as it gradually becomes literature that sells itself on pornography and rude language.

Shade chose to speak about the Knight novel, also knowing that no one would defend the Knight novel in public at the Queen's birthday party.

"But Mr. Hamilton, it's a marvelous thing for you, the ordained Knight, to say that Knight's novels are dead."

Yeva of Carsonrick Lady Swift said that her Delarion is not very good and she speaks slowly.

"But that's true, but in my opinion, the decline of the old knight novel also represents the rise of the new knight novel."

"oh?"

His words naturally attracted the attention of many people, and even Dorothy looked towards Shade unexpectedly.

In her opinion, Shade isn't the type to talk big in areas she's not familiar with, something that would be inappropriate when there are so many writers.

“So Knight, how do you define the so-called new knight novel?”

ask playwright Mr. Procy Newman, who, despite his feminine appearance and attire, speaks The sound is normal.

"Very simple, old-style Knight novels, more focused on fighting powerful enemies and even ghosts in the wild, in the countryside, winning the Knight's highest honor and returning triumphantly, becoming a prominent figure, and fighting a noble lady or a distant place. Princess married. But where is there anyone in our time who ventures into the countryside and the wild? Gentlemen, literature has to be in keeping with the context and tone of the times."

aroused the approval of the people.

"So, I think the so-called new knight novel, the main stage of the adventure should be placed in the city. This is the most familiar place for civilized people who can read the text and like to read books to pass the time."

"It makes sense."

Poet Mr. Miles Garoff touched the chin, and most people are now listening to Shade's "talking about it".

"Secondly, the way the Knight wins honor by defeating robbers, goblins, and Evil Spirits is too cliché. Where is the chance to kill someone casually in an urban adventure? So, the new Knight The story of the novel should not aim to kill a powerful target as before, but to fight evil with more civilized means on the main stage of the city."

Shade Before the others could react to what they were going to say, they speeded up their speech and said:
"A man who lives in a steam city, is good at fighting, and is proficient in mathematics, grammar, astronomy and mechanical engineering, based in his own apartment. , shuttle in the fog and steam, hang out in the slums and the lower city, hang out in the clubs and the noble Sand Dragon. Have a close relationship with the poor, but can win the favor of the great characters. Fight crime, get paid, in the night and shadow Get information in disguise, use mysterious criminals as the number one enemy, and even make noble lady and princess through missions, and get a happy life at the end of the story"

"Isn't this a detective novel?"

p>

Finally someone heard what Shade wanted to say, and people broke free from the scene created by Shade's words. For people of this era, the scene depicted by Shade is quite realistic and pictorial.

Everyone laughed, because Shade is the detective, and Shade is seriously nodded:
"Yeah, so I think the new knight novel that should be popular in the later era is the detective Novels. Detective novels will succeed."

As he spoke, Shade turned his head and smiled at Goldilocks again, and people seemed to understand something and smiled kindly.

The words just now sounded a little shamelessly, but Shade's purpose seems to be to win the favor of his girlfriend, because Dorothy Luisa is currently the hottest detective writer.

Well, Shade's speech just now can be interpreted romantically, so it won't offend people. Moreover, what Shade just said seems to make some sense.

Dorothy looked at Shade with a gleam in her eyes:
"So, the detective is the modern-day Knight?"

she asked softly, but Shade hadn't. Before he could speak, the foreign lady of Carsenrick said:
"Then Mr. Hamilton, who is a detective, is not the Knight who lives in this troubled and complicated northern pearl?"

Presumably because the words were blurted out, so she was in Carsonrick. Shade understands Carsenrik, so he curled his tongue and said with a smile:

"Yes, ma'am."

This is also Carsenrik, this kind of Simply put, he will.

Ms. Yeva Swift covered her mouth with a chuckle and continued to praise Shade in Carsonrick, and the people around her expressed their views on Knight's novels.

Only Dorothy was there looking at Shade:

"Detective."

"What's wrong?"

Shade looked too towards her, the gas lamps and crystal chandeliers overhead illuminated the two of them. From Shade's point of view, today's Dorothy is extraordinarily beautiful, and from Dorothy's point of view, the high-spirited and vigorous Shade seems to be a little different from the past.

After she was slightly dazed, she shook her head with a smile:
"Queen Diana will be out in five minutes."

With "Saved Queen Diana" The "illiterate" Shade who obtained Knight's identity seems to be regarded as his own by the writers here after he published his criticism of Knight's novels and his opinions on new novels.

Before the queen appeared, Shade took out the prepared business card and exchanged it with people, which was also considered to develop contacts and attract business. When these wealthy people make commissions, the bids are generally high.

People are naturally very happy to get to know the detectives in Sainte-de-Land Square. Except for the relationship between Shade and Miss Galina, which no one dares to mention at present, Shade as a detective is still somewhat skilled. In the past two months, every commission he took over has been successfully completed.

When the horn sounded suddenly, there was a sudden silence in the lively banquet hall, and then everyone stood up. This was Queen Diana's appearance.

First, the guards of the Squad Yodell Palace walked down the stairs on the third floor.

After clearing a passage from the stairs on the third floor to the terrace on the second floor, the trumpeters in soft hats and red cloaks with heavy old-time style also came down from the third floor, Stand on both sides of the channel being cleared.

The reporters gathered on the terrace and set up cameras at the stairs on the third floor. Half of the people on the first floor came to the second floor, and half walked directly into the courtyard to look up.

In the whispers, the low trumpet gradually dropped to the extreme, but after a few circles, the tone suddenly became louder.

The voices of the guests were completely silent, and everyone looked up and looked towards the height of the stairs on the third floor.

First of all, several maids came out, and then several noble ladies such as Marquise Heula, Duchess of Randall came out, and they stood in the middle of the stairs and looked up with everyone. While the trumpet sounded to the extreme, Queen Diana, wearing a crown and a silver-white long dress, finally walked out surrounded by several Princesses, and the person holding her hand was wearing Ajelena Cavendish in the blue Princess dress.

Although Queen Diana is no longer young compared to her own daughter, she appears here at this time, with her clothes and accessories as a foil, her whole person seems to be shining.

She smiled at everyone downstairs, the applause almost overwhelming all the horns at the moment. And the smoke and flashes from the explosion of a whole row of flashes made the picture even more fantastic.

Shade, with Dorothy, stood behind the crowd, looked up, and applauded along with the other writers.

Dorothy applauded softly, then turned and hid behind the taller Shade to avoid seeing Lacia. Shade stood on tiptoe and looked up the stairs. He first saw Laccia who was pulling the skirt of the queen. The red-haired girls and young people around her should all be Princess and Prince of their own country.

It was only later that Miss Galina was seen, with Demonness following behind Queen Diana. She was also dressed up today, and although she kept that elegant and decent smile on her face, no matter how Shade looked at it, Demoness seemed a little absent-minded.
