The House of Lords in Marienburg was prepared for the imperial asking price, and they secretly negotiated the asking price. What they hope most is to spend a lot of money. Anyway, over time, the money will slowly flow back into their pockets.

But these conditions of the Griffin Duke made them dumbfounded, is this still a negotiation? If these conditions are agreed, what is the difference between Marienburg and the loss of autonomy?

They are all going to become servants of the empire!

But Schultz is also a man who can calm down. He read the treaty for a while and laughed heartily: "Your Excellency Ferdinand, among the conditions you gave, we may only partially agree with the fourth. Article, I fully agree with Article 5."

All military expenses of the imperial army must be paid by Marienburg. This is affirmative. This is the basis of everything. As for the fifty thousand gold mark...Although it is a lot, However, looking at the first three conditions, this one is still acceptable and bargaining.

"Really? Your Excellency Schultz, let me say that the most important of our conditions are the first three items. As for the fifth item that you agree with, I don’t think you can just ask for it. Asking us to do something, this is a fair contract." Ivan said with a faint smile: "I have fulfilled the first four items, and of course we will definitely fulfill the fifth item."

" Also, this must be an open, fair and just contract that must be supervised by citizens of the entire empire, and no one’s favoritism or sabotage will be allowed."

Ryan was watching this negotiation, he thought This negotiation is a rhythm that can't go on at first.

The Duke of Griffin is not the main person in charge of this negotiation. The emperor has sent a diplomat to take charge of the negotiation. Most of the time, he just sits there, tasting tea and snacks.

But as long as he sits there is a great deterrent. With him and his Griffin Knight group present, the imperial diplomat’s waist is very hard, speaking overbearing, and Marienburg’s side Some imposing manner is not enough.

This is the status of the Sacred Domain powerhouse.

So the negotiations on the first day only lasted two hours, and some consensus was reached in some places. The two parties established a communication mechanism to prepare for the subsequent exchanges.

To put it simply, the talk fell apart and broke up.

In the evening, the city hall held another banquet, and the nobles of Marienburg showed stiff smiles on their faces, welcoming the arrival of the Griffin Knight regiment.

The huge city hall is filled with a variety of delicacies, including staple food, meat, vegetables, beverages, fruits, etc., which are not only rich in varieties, but also good in color and fragrance, such as honey, jam, butter, cheese, and beef. The oil is packed in small boxes the size of matchboxes.

Beverages include coffee, tea, various juices, milk, etc. The staple food is a variety of breads, as well as cream, cheese and jam to go with the bread, plus sausage and ham.

The Duke of Griffin is undoubtedly the protagonist of this banquet.

If he has any famous performance in recent years, then there is no doubt that he presided over the red-horned wild beast tribal battle against the giant dragon forest.

A few years ago, the current imperial emperor Karl-Franz-Frederich had not ascended the throne. The incumbent imperial emperor was Luitpold-Fredrich, the predecessor The emperor can only be regarded as a conservative monarch. In the last few years of his life, the emperor himself was sick and unable to form effective management of the empire.

The famous battle of the giant dragon forest took place at this time. The elector of Brescia, Andrea Bernardino, the "sleeper", finally couldn't bear the wild beast on his territory. After repeated harassment by the tribe, the elector decided to lead a large army into the giant dragon forest to completely wipe out the tribe of the wild beast tribe.

However, just like his nickname, Andrea the "Sleepman" is not a candidate who is good at war. He is more good at internal affairs. Without sufficient preparation, the elector He led the army into the giant dragon forest.

His opponent is the wild beast traitor odd champion "fraud" Ungur, this cunning beast king summoned dozens of wild beasts to form an army of tens of thousands of wild beasts, on the other side be careful Lure the enemy deep into the ground, and then continuously sent wild beasts to repeatedly attack the supply line, and finally smashed the army in the third week when the elector’s army entered the forest. The elector himself died in battle, and the army was completely defeated, holy sword "West "Fire" and the only daughter of the elector also disappeared in this war, and the bloodline, the bloodline of the Bernardino family, was cut off.

The Elector of Brescia is currently temporarily taken over by Andrea’s nephew, Gianni Bernardino. He is just a teenage doll, and many people are looking for Andrea’s daughter The whereabouts of, in the hope of obtaining a strong claim to Brescia.

The Duke of Griffon was in danger, and led the Griffin Knight regiment and imperial reinforcements to launch the second giant dragon forest battle. In the battle, Ivan used the army of wild beasts to command chaos after victory, and infighting increased In large cases, abandoning a small number of spoils of war caused dozens of wild beasts to fight each other, and then led the imperial army to completely defeat the wild beasts.

The Beastmaster "The Fraudster" Ungur was killed by Ivan himself. Although Ungur was resurrected once due to the blessing of Tecchi, the Duke of Griffin was not surprised, and he calmly pulled out the Griffin again. Truesilver holy sword, and cut Angul's head again.

His prestigious name is all based on typing.

Ivan always took his son Anton and godson Ryan. He picked up a large steak and ate it in a few bites, then moved towards Ryan and said, "The beef is a bit old."

"I will cook char-grilled steak for you myself." Ryan knew what his godfather meant, so he swallowed a piece of pork, and the godson said helplessly.

Ryan has an innate talent for making food. Ivan likes to eat his meat. Hearing that Ryan will cook, Anton’s eyes shined brightly. Ryan looked very funny: " Alright, alright! You can also come together, but you have to bring your own beef."

"hahahahaha! You smelly brat! Still the same as before." Ivan laughed heartily and patted Ryan's head. , Ryan was holding his head and dared not resist, so he hid, and Anton also smiled and said nothing.

The three griffon father and son and Ryan nestled in one corner to eat.

"Oh! Honorable Lord Griffin, on behalf of His Royal Highness Phoenix Wang Finnuba, I would like to extend my sincere greetings to Lord Griffin!" The High Elf Ambassador Taimag-den-Carbon appeared, and he Rarely showed a look of respect: "didn't expect this time you led the army to Marienburg."

"It turned out to be Lord Taimag. I have received the greetings from King Phoenix. May I ask What's the matter?" Ivan saw that it had pointed ears, not at all, what a good face.

"I want to ask whether Your Majesty, the emperor of the human empire, intends to respect Iphitau's position in Marienburg and past trade agreements?" The High Elf Ambassador asked what he cares most about.

"The rights of the high elves will be guaranteed. Please rest assured, Your Excellency Taimag." Ivan whispered.

"This is really great. The friendship between the high elves and humans has a long history. I hope we can keep this friendship." Taimag got a satisfactory answer, nodded repeatedly, and then raised his chin. Leaving with the red wine.

When the high elves were far away, the Griffin Duke said disdainfully: "Pointy ears are always like this. What they care most about is their own rights. As long as they don’t touch their interests, they treat others I don’t care about anything."

"Yes, I can bet that if the greenskins can respect the trade agreement and their dominance over Ifitau, I don’t think these sharp ears would care about the greenskins. Become the master of Marienburg." Ryan picked up the red wine, and the thief said with a smile: "It's a pity that green leather won't."

"hahahaha!" Father and son of the Duke of Griffin laughed heartily together.

After drinking three rounds of food, Ivan signaled that the three of them can leave. Marienburg has arranged a place for Father and son, Duke of Griffin, on Amber Avenue.

Walking on the cold street, the street lights illuminate the silhouettes of the three people, and the cold wind blows through their clothes.

"So? Ryan, why did you vote for the lady in the lake?" After all, Ivan asked this question, and Anton looked at Ryan curiously.

"The cause of the incident was that I received a mission from the Justice Church to hunt down the fallen hunter Belt..." Ryan lightly told a series of his own experiences, and Ivan listened carefully, from time to time Nodding seriously, Anton heard that Ryan had gone through that many dangers, and from time to time he exclaimed.

Ivan was slightly frowned when he heard that Urik handed down Oracle and asked Ryan to destroy a doomsday bull, especially when Ryan told that the doomsday bull evolved into a four-armed Demon Ox, and he finally endured it. I couldn’t help interrupting Ryan’s narration: “The Lord White Wolf is still so harsh on his followers. This is almost a mortal task. It’s not the first time such a thing has happened.”

Ryan just sighed. Then he continued talking about his journey along the way, only omitting the part of the ancient holy altar. Then when it comes to the collapse of the city gate due to the betrayal of the traitor, there is no danger to defend Miloddenhaven, so he had to talk with him. The Barbarian Race chief had a championship duel, but he fell behind. In a difficult situation, the lake fairy reached out to him.

"At the time, I had only two choices. I either hoped for the unlikely help of the Lord White Wolf, or I chose to accept the olive branch extended by the lady. Ivan, Anton, you all understand, I At that time there was no choice." Ryan looked helpless: "I couldn't think too much at the time, my body was overwhelmed, and my physical fitness was approaching its limit. I could only grab this life-saving straw."

Finally, Ryan said that he came to Marienburg and finally beheaded the fallen hunter Belt. The Duke father and son fell silent, and the three walked out a long section of the road together.

"Ms. Huzhong must have taken a fancy to your potential. You are only twenty-five years old this year. You cut the Demon Ox with four arms, and the champion of chaos, and then the champion of horror abuse. The future for you is limitless. The Knight virtues you showed in this process must have been watched by Lady Lake, so she will accept you as the champion of God’s choice." Ivan thought for a while before continuing, "Obviously this Everything is the plan of the lady in the lake, she has spotted you at the most critical moment to lend you a helping hand, between life and death, people will always seize all the hope of survival, even more how lady in the lake is also the enemy of chaos , It’s not surprising that you will change your faith."

"Yes, sometimes life is so helpless." Ryan's tone sounded full of helplessness, and then he lightly unbuttoned his chest.

A golden holy grail pattern is shining on his chest.

"This is the engraving of the Holy Grail! Has Ms. Huzhong recognized you as the Holy Grail Knight?" Anton said in surprise.

"Yes, if nothing else, I will go to Brittania to be the lord after the grass festival." Ryan told his godfather about his future, with some shame on his face "Ivan, I...I'm sorry, I failed your teaching, but I have no choice."

The Duke of Griffin looked at his godson, suddenly haha ​​smiled and slapped Ryan with a slap. "Ha! You smelly brat, I also know your selfish calculations. Ms. Huzhong treats you so much. It’s not surprising that you would choose to change your letter if you value material benefits, plus under her There will be a better future. It makes sense for you to choose this way. You have passed my level. It is also a very glorious thing to become the Holy Grail Knight, at least better than being Wolf Knight in Nord."

"hu~" Ryan let out a sigh of relief, his godfather passed the test.

The Duke of Griffon recognizes the eight virtues of Knight very much. He has also visited Brittania as a representative of the empire, and has forged a deep friendship with many holy grail Knights. He just can’t bear it. The serfdom of the Knight Kingdom and the recklessness and arrogance of the young Knights.

The godfather began to teach his godson: "But Ryan, you have to know that Bretania is no better than an empire. This country has fallen into decline hundreds of years after the founding of the country. Since the King Taylor Since then, the two subsequent Knights, John I and John II, are tyrants. It was under their rule that the self-cultivating farmers of Bretania went bankrupt and turned into serfs. The Knight spirit that the nobility held in the past gradually disappeared. The energy of seeking justice and virtue is now only used to extract higher benefits from serfs."

Ryan listened respectfully, and Anton quietly listened to father's teachings.

Ivan continued: "After John II was overthrown by the Lake Goddess witches and dukes, the current Knight King Richard can only be regarded as a good man and a good general. Bretania may be able to maintain a stable rule under the rule, but it is almost impossible to regain prosperity, and Richard is old and lacks ambition."

"If you Becoming a nobleman in Bretania, you may have to face many difficulties, do you really think about it? My godson?"

"My godfather, things may have to be viewed in two ways , A declining and decayed kingdom will certainly make me face many challenges, but it will also contain new life." Ryan said calmly: "When the flames of war burn throughout the kingdom, huge crises will also give rise to huge changes. And opportunity..."

"And this is what you want!" Ivan opened his eyes slightly, and the Duke of Griffon raised his mouth. He understood Ryan's ambitions: "It's so big Ambition, worthy of being my godson of Ivan Ferdinand!"

Between words, the Griffin Duke stretched his hand to the Griffin real silver holy sword on his waist. The huge one-handed sword is in The cold air made a melodious sound, the griffon pattern on the hilt of the sword, the angel wings lit up the golden glow, the sword was covered with various runes, and the golden flame hunted on the sword.

"Draw your sword! Ryan!"

"Let me see if you have the ability to support your huge ambitions!" Griffin real silver holy sword in hand, Ivan's face gradually became cold, and the pressure of the Sacred Domain powerhouse completely radiated, shaking the two youngsters back and forth.

"If you can't take this sword, take your ambitions into the grave!"

Ryan nodded, and he reached out to the Vengeance Goddess behind him, he A strong fighting intent burned in his eyes.

"As you wish, my godfather."

"I also want you to see my growth."
