Warhammer Throne

At the end of March, Old World, Brittany, Poldero, Mannan dry dock.

Merchant ships and passenger ships from the entire old world have berthed and loaded and unloaded goods in this high-quality deep-water port. In recent years, due to the small-scale opening of Brittany, the number of adventurers who come to visit and venture to find opportunities has gradually increased.

The ocean-going ship of the high elves appeared on the dock.

"Welcome to Polderro, Polderromann Dry Dock No. 3 is here to remind you that there are tens of thousands of shipping routes, safety is the first thing, and the boats are not regulated, and the relatives can cry."

The Dock Tax Officer appointed by Duke Boderek was leading the tax collectors to speak loudly with the warnings polished by courtiers.

Recently, Duke Boderek of Poldero is in a very good mood, very good. Because the trade agreement signed by Ryan and Targris must be traded from the port of Poldero, the Duke has earned money from this trade agreement. Very lucrative profits.

Federmond’s return followed immediately. It took the eldest son of Boderek 18 years to finally complete the Holy Grail expedition. Boderek was in a very good mood recently. He asked his courtiers to come up with a good enough Warm port slogans must not contain any threats or warnings.

The courtiers racked their brains to come up with this unsatisfactory-sounding slogan. Although Boderick felt that it was different from what he had imagined, the Duke in a good mood didn't care about it anymore.

In the spring sunshine, Boderek was walking with his protagonist on the walls of the Polderro Castle. He was wearing a yellow and blue Poseidon blessed full-body mithril plate armor, and behind him was a huge Poseidon trident cloak. Walking to the side of the wall of the city wall, looking at his prosperous and fertile territory, he said to Federmond who was standing behind him: "This will all belong to you in the future, my son."

"Father...why do you want to hold such a grand banquet?" Federmond cast his gaze on the high elf's ocean-going ship. The holy grail knight also wore a yellow and blue sea **** blessed his whole body mithril plate armor, but His cloak has been printed with a golden holy grail pattern. On the top of his cross helmet, the golden sea monster holds the holy grail and stands proudly in front of others.

"What's wrong? I want the whole kingdom to know that my son has completed the Holy Grail Expedition and became the glorious Knight of the Holy Grail." Boderick turned his head to look at his son, and looked at Federmond meaningfully. "Of course, it is more important to introduce you to the great nobles of the kingdom. You have been on the expedition for eighteen years. The situation in the whole kingdom is different. Richard is about to abdicate, in the unpredictable palace of the kingdom. In China, our Polderro Principality also has to make its own choice."

"I thought I didn't have to think about it after I drank the serum in the lady's holy grail. It doesn't seem to be the case now." Federmond looks only two years old, but in fact he is nearly 50 years old. , The newly promoted holy grail knight looked firm: "I have heard a little bit about the kingdom in these years. After returning here, I also spent a lot of time learning about it, the war of knighthood, the battle of the plains of Kurona, and the northern barbarians. It’s a pity that Knight Commander Ulles died. His Majesty Richard’s ruling was too staid. As for the Earl of Ryan Makado, whom you often mentioned to me, my father, I’m not sure about it. It’s an ambition. A person of equal importance, judging from what he has done, it is not without reason for a lady to choose him to become her champion of choice. I can only say that."

"Ryan Makado is a human hero that is difficult to describe in words." Duke Boderek nodded, the crow's feet in the corners of his eyes were already deep: "How you look at him is your business, you will soon be able to do so. See him and his wife, Marquis Suria, Ryan is the lady's champion of choice, Marquis Suria is also a knight favored by the lady, and his brother...In short, you will know when the time comes."

"As usual, the two old **** of Pershmond and François are still sitting in the seat of the duke. Pershmond is nearly a hundred years old, but with his strength at the top of the sanctuary, it is estimated that there are three hundred years to live. "The Duke of Boderek walked slowly, and the armor on his body made a metal collision sound with the movement: "François is not inferior to Bohemond, and now he has chosen a good son-in-law. For at least the next few hundred years, he and his family will have no worries. These two old souls were all qualified to compete for the king last time, but they all have their own concerns. Francois lacks interest in the throne. On the one hand, his presence suppresses the borders of the kingdom. With him, the undead wizard Heinrich Kemler can only hide in the gray mountains and dare not move. Berhemond has no interest in being a king. , His internal affairs ability may be the worst among all dukes in the entire kingdom. He obviously prefers to fight as a holy grail knight, rather than spend his energy in the whirlpool of the palace."

Federmond didn't say a word, he followed behind Duke Bodrick, silently listening to his father's analysis.

"In addition, there are currently Rauen-Leo Cornwall, Duke of Connet, and Hubald, Duke of Carcassonne, who currently have the qualifications to compete for the throne." Boderek continued: "Among them, Richard likes it. His successor is Raun Leo Cornwall. Although Raun Leo Cornwall is still in his forties, he is already a legendary high-ranking holy grail knight. In addition, he has excellent internal affairs ability and is also one of the champions elected by the lady."

"What about Duke Hubald?" Federmond frowned. The political situation in the Knight Kingdom was so complicated that he hadn't expected him. The Knights of the Holy Grail instinctively didn't want to think about it, but what he had in his body was the Seagod Champion. , The blood of the house of the Duke of Poldero!

"Shubald is the duke least likely to be a king." Boderek shook his head suddenly: "Carcassone is too far away from Curona. Moreover, Hubald is extremely cold and ruthless. No duke would want him to be a king. , If the control is not good, it is very likely that it will be another John II."

Kurona is located in the north of the kingdom, and Kakasson is located in the southernmost part of the kingdom. The two sides are too far apart. The north of the kingdom mainly faces the harassment of the northern barbarians, the raiding of dark elf pirates and the border friction with the empire, while Kakasson is It is mainly to deal with the invasion of the Greenskin tribe and the infiltration of the Skaven Rats. The distance between the north and the south is too far to manage.

"Understood." The firm lines on Federmond's face fluctuated slightly. He thought for a while, and then said: "But I still think that the Holy Grail Knight in his early thirties is really amazing."

"Actually, I originally liked François' daughter Sulia, but I don’t know when you will come back, and the other is a lady’s oracle." Duke Bodrick sneered: "Fedmund , Even if you come back then, you won’t be able to compete with Ryan. The adopted son of the hillbilly from Nord really has something to do with him. Don’t underestimate him.”

"I didn't even think about marrying a wife so early." Federmond said to Boderick with some annoyance: "Why are you so eager to get me engaged to Countess Eva?"

"You are almost fifty, my son, you should get married. Now there are not many unmarried female nobles left in the kingdom who are married and close to each other. The matter between you and the Countess Eva must be settled as soon as possible, I You can go to the Holy Grail expedition with confidence." Duke Boderek frowned, his eyes were torch, staring at his son: "Why do you have this idea?"

"In a hurry, I don't even know what Eva looks like."

"You will see it. I mean it's better to settle this matter as soon as possible. Pordro has had a good relationship with Bastogne in history. Your marriage with Eva will help stabilize the territory and gain support from the nobles. "Duke Boderek can understand his son's thoughts: "I understand your thoughts. After all, the person who gets married is you, not me. My father cannot guarantee a happy marriage. So at this banquet, I will arrange you and Meet the Countess Eva."

"..." Just as Boderek knew Federmond, Federmond also knew his father. He knew that Boderek had decided and would not change easily. The Holy Grail Knight shook his head and did not continue. Try to argue with my father again on this issue.

But Bo Derek said a few more things. As for the marriage of children, parents are always full of interest: "Now, the noble ladies of the kingdom have raised their standards because of Sulia's affairs. Which duke’s unmarried ladies? Don’t want to marry as good as Su Liya? Husband is a Holy Grail knight, outstanding strength, young lady's choice champion and sanctuary knight, and Ryan is still an orphan, not Su Liya has the final say Hey, want me to say, what did Julius use to compete with you for Eva? Relying on him for the title of a kingdom knight? Isn't my son a hundred times stronger than his François son?"

"Father, please don't say that. We are all fighting for women, fighting evil, defending our country, regardless of high or low." Federmond said softly: "Justice and humility, this is what the woman taught us."

The words of the Duke of Boldello, yes, he can teach his son from the perspective of his father, or he can teach Federmond from the perspective of the Duke to the heirs, but on the eight virtues of knights, Boldrick does not The stand reprimanded Federmond.

"..." Boderick looked at his son, his always serious eyes showed a sense of sorrow, he was silent for a long time, and said in a bitter voice: "Fedmond, your mother always wanted to see you again before she died. , She loves you very much."

The Duke of Poseidon took out the shell pendant from his body and handed it to Federmond. The Duke’s father loved him like a mountain.

Federmond took the pendant and opened the shell. Inside was an oil painting of the family of the Duke of Pouldero. The duchess smiled on the front and the knight of the Holy Grail had red eyes: "I also love my mother. It is her love that inspires me to overcome all difficulties...I, I am sad."

Bo Derek nodded, and the Duke motioned to Federmond to accept the pendant: "Take it, your mother will light your way forward. The duty of the knight is to protect. For thousands of years, honor and sacrifice have supported the kingdom. Always standing on the backbone of the world."

The father and son wanted to say something more. A knight attendant stepped forward: "My Duke, my Marquis, Madam’s Chosen Champion, Earl Lane and Marquise Suria are about to arrive in Podero, and the Poseidon knights are leading He came towards the castle."

"Is the Marquis of Julius coming?" The love in Boderek's eyes immediately disappeared, and the Duke restored the original serious expression of Gujing Wubo.

"No, only Earl Lane, Marquise Suria, several servants, and a Templar knight came."

"In this case, Federmond, you go to meet them." Boderek patted Federmond on the shoulder: "It is helpful for young people to communicate more with each other in the future."

"Me?" Federmond, who was nearly fifty years old, pointed to himself with a tangled expression on his face.

"Am I a young man?"

…………

On the prosperous streets of Bodlux, the capital of Boldero, a black carriage is slowly moving on the street. The carriage is airtight, and all places are wrapped in black cloth, which makes people feel uncomfortable. Breath, but the carriage was moving freely on the streets of Bodleux. It seemed that because of some kind of power, whether it was pedestrians or soldiers on patrol, they ignored the carriage.

Occasionally, after a knight investigates, the merchant in the carriage and a young and handsome knight will say politely that they are merchants and knights of the Duchy of Connet, and they receive invitations to come to Polderro to participate in the banquet.

So the guards quickly let go.

The curtain of the black carriage was lowered again, and Mathewbad, Duke of Moussilon sitting in the carriage, laughed ironically. Mathewbad, who was proficient in heraldry and the etiquette of the Bretonian court, wanted to sneak into a cloth. Letania Castle is too easy.

Although Mathieubad has attracted the attention of the entire kingdom as a traitor, because he is the runner-up of the Knights Conference, and can not obtain definite evidence to prove his treason, the court of the Kingdom of Bretania can only send a small number of knights to be wanted in private. The capture of this young ranger knight cannot be made public.

However, there is a problem here. Mathieubad always wears a helmet when he participates in the knights' meeting. He looks very handsome and is the most typical blond and blue-eyed Breton descent. This makes the knights of the whole kingdom even Knowing that Mathieubad is a traitor, but few people really know him!

In the carriage, a shriveled necromancer and Mathieubad sat facing each other, and Duke Moussilon said in a deep voice: "This Poldereau's banquet is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Tahe, you are one of the most powerful necromancers under the godfather. I hope you give me some advice."

"At the banquet site, I will create a huge chaos and put the entire castle into extreme tension. At that time, the guards will be transferred away. My duke, the Black Holy Grail knights will rush into the banquet site and bring those nobles away. We slaughtered them all."

"At that time, most of the great nobles in the kingdom will die at the banquet, and the remaining nobles will also lose mutual trust in suspicion and hatred. As long as they use a few means and announce the truth about the lake in the lake, the throne of the knight kingdom will not be You must be!"

"Then do it!"
