I have a shelter

He thought Fernando would extend an olive branch, but he didn't think he would understand so well!

——Fernando's words actually expressed three meanings:

The Duke and His Majesty are standing together and facing the outside world in unison.

The Duke will move east to guard the Blue Water City, which means that the upper-level people believe that the three countries will go to war after the Black Tide ends-'This possibility is indeed very great. It must be said that the politicians of Rodunk are still very far-sighted, and this also shows that Landry and Elda may have exposed their wolfish ambitions. After all, the piece of fat meat of the Blue Water City is too big'

After George heard these two meanings, he didn't know what he felt in his heart-just as he expected, if the Black Tide didn't put pressure, humans would never be able to unite. Even under this pressure, they have been scheming against each other.

But the last meaning of Fernando's words dispelled all the haze in George's heart.

What he wanted to express was very clear

What temple or temple Knights, archbishop or bishop

As long as the 'Kingdom of Rodunk' endorses you. What identity are you still worried about? Whoever you say you are, you are the fucking one!

And it sounds like he will give you a title

And this is much more effective than the stamp of that damn ‘Prince of Dragon Ridge Mountain’!

So this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, you have to choose carefully.

"You know." Count Fernando narrowed his eyes slightly, and pointed out what he had to say: "The two groups of guys in Elda are like wild wolves biting each other, but they are greedy and white-eyed."

George's mouth twitched slightly.

Because in his ears, Fernando said such a paragraph - and, you, a Rodunk, don't follow those stupid outsiders. Although His Majesty has no heirs, how to pass this position to the princess remains to be seen!

I'm afraid that this ‘Prince of Dragon Ridge Mountain’ does not exist in His Majesty's heart at all

'Phillips, Phillips, I still underestimated you, you can scare all these people, and make the Duke loyal. This guy's means and black belly are extraordinary. As for your subordinate, he is a real talent. No wonder the Duke asked him to come.'

'But I'm sorry, everyone. I can't stand with any of you. Don't worry, since you are all thinking about the future. Then I have to help you - I am the last way out after the Duke, and the biggest and most greedy ungrateful person.

'So I will accept everything you give me! '

In the subsequent conversation, George no longer showed that arrogance, but was very tactful.

Just like Gavi at the beginning.

The castle surrounded by gauze is already in sight, like a water palace standing on the river.

The topic has come to an end. There is not much time to talk more, because the boat has already docked.

But everyone has expressed their feelings to each other and reached an agreement - in the last conversation, Fernando said that he would give a deposit. And informed George of one thing in advance, giving him a reassurance pill.

"Don't worry, George. Your presence is a great thing for many people. And for the joining of their own people, His Majesty and the Duke will definitely give you a satisfactory gift." Fernando stepped onto the shore and said to George with a smile: "My Lord Duke may be busy for a while. You and the lords should rest in the palace first. Lord Wallace and I will go there first - his old boss is still waiting for him."

George's heart beat slightly after hearing these words: "Lord Vic White is also here?!"

He had wanted to meet this person for a long time, but Fernando's words really disappointed him, and his heart beat twice as fast.

"Lord Vic White, as a cardinal of the Order of Cardinals, does not have so much time to stay here. The one who came here to take charge of things is an old friend of his." At this point, Fernando's smile became intriguing: "Lord Avery Krendel also came from the 'Cathedral of St. Wilmick'. His qualifications are not low."

When Fernando turned his head, George's eyes went dark and he almost fell off the boat.

He saw the name ‘Avery Krendel’ several times every day - in his diary, this person’s name was recorded in it.

Qualifications?

This old man’s qualifications are indeed not low. His ancestor was a Templar Knight of St. Wilmik Cathedral. He was the ‘Deacon Priest’ more than ten years ago - the same as Wallace now. Although his rank is still a priest, he has a lot of authority.

And George, this bastard, was able to sneak into the temple - and the choir! But it was all done by this greedy uncle.

To put it bluntly, this big guy is his relative.

(It was mentioned in Chapter 71 that Austin had a big man like a ‘Templar Knight’, but he was an illegitimate child. George entered the temple to study with this distant relationship, and his father spent a lot of money)

The prince who can be conferred the title of Grand Duke of Violet is generally the crown prince. And the Violet area has actually long been a royal fiefdom. Although Prince Philip had spent most of his time in the capital, this fiefdom was managed by the royal family. But the Bishui Palace was always a royal palace that was no less than the capital.

When Philip was called His Majesty, this place had officially become a real palace.

Its layout is different from the square "palace" of Black Pearl and the peak-shaped castle of Yongfeng. The top of the building is more circular, and the building area is also larger.

After everyone went ashore, it was the square of the main gate of the palace. The square was guarded by large walls built on both sides by the water, as if it was embraced by the hands of a giant. After entering the main hall, in the high corridor, George looked at the area inside the castle, and what he saw was not a central garden, but a piece of water.

There are so many platforms and bridges here, almost completely covering the central "garden", and most of the buildings are built on the water.

There are also many open spaces, but there are boats docked. It seems that only the innermost core area of ​​the palace is completely built on land.

As everyone moved forward, they saw large castles. Most of the large castles here were built on the periphery, with city walls attached. They were close to the water on the periphery, and they were connected to the core area inward. And many of the "gates" connected by the city walls are actually water gates leading to the castle's "moat".

George looked out, and after crossing the river with white gauze, he saw tall buildings. These buildings formed a natural defense for the palace. After the invaders broke through the outer and inner city walls, as long as the palace and these buildings were guarded by soldiers, those who wanted to attack this palace often had to break through these outer buildings first. Otherwise, after the boats passed through the rivers and bridges in the city and came here, they would face arrows from all directions.

Siege equipment can rarely be used in this castle. To break this castle, manpower is mainly used.

After Fernando arranged for everyone to rest in the hall, he left first. Wallace also found a reason as he said and left.

Seeing Fernando's last look at him, George knew that the two guys were going to discuss with the higher-ups how to make up a story-the head had been collected by Fernando's knights. George believed that the gift in exchange was definitely not low.

Robert left next. He was in a high position and didn't have to wait in the palace. But he would not go to the Duke without seeing the matter through. I just don't know where he was going.

When these people left, everyone relaxed. Noble ladies, lords, and knights gathered in groups and started a symposium, or played leisure games in laughter.

After playing pot throwing and darts for a while, Aji saw Yudlan leaving George's sofa, so he took a bunch of small things he won and sat next to George.

"Boss, why do I feel that this rest area is somewhat similar to the largest brothel in Fallen Leaf City?" His eyes looked at the maids who were walking around and serving, and his eyes showed a full of bad taste.

Of course, the scale cannot be compared.

"You're right, Aji." George was looking at the surrounding paintings and antique toys. After hearing this, he nodded and said, "Haha, that brothel is Fernando's property."

The title of a noble has always been a representation of the status of the family, not its own strength. Although Fernando Lanni has the title of Earl, his fiefdom only has a few small farms.

But this earl with a long history in the family has inherited the real thing from his ancestors - business.

Therefore, many generations of earls have served as important officials in the royal court.

"Damn! This old bastard!" Aji widened his eyes.

"It's not as bad as you think, Aji." George said: "The nobles have several clubs and social places."

"No, boss. I'm thinking, Tanya and Rona won't be kidnapped by that guy!" At this point, the guy actually touched his purse.

"This is Tanya's brother-in-law's house. Her brother-in-law is here." George scratched the corner of his mouth and found that he had said the wrong thing. This is not Adeline's fiefdom: "The two of them should be with the Duchess."

At this point, George suddenly paused and couldn't help scratching his slightly red ears.

To be honest, before mentioning the Duchess, he hadn't thought about it deeply. But now he suddenly felt that the two characters, ‘George. Bolton’ and ‘Lona. Bolton’, designed by Tanya on a whim, might be completely exposed now.

“Damn the Duke, why did he bring all the family here?”

Even if he didn’t change his face, it would be fine to come to see the Duke. After all, he only knew that there was a knight named George under Elizabeth, and it would be very reasonable to say that he was Bolton.

But now it’s different. Although the Duchess changed her last name, she is a genuine Bolton. She knows all the collateral branches of her family.

‘The news of Black Pearl’s coming here has long been spread to Bishui City, and the Duke and Lady have known about it for a long time. It’s impossible for someone not to mention Miss Tanya’s fiancé. And Fernando probably has a plan in his mind. No wonder this guy guessed me at a glance. ’

Thinking of this, George touched his chin-the high priest who brought him in is here. But when Fernando mentioned this person to him just now, the promise in his mouth was so certain.

And he also said that he would give him a deposit first - although it is very difficult to prove Austin's identity, it is not impossible. But Fernando would never be so confident.

So what is this exchange of interests for himself? Is it really that easy to become the Black Pearl Grand Duke of 'George William Austin'?

George couldn't help but wonder.

As for the position of bishop, no matter how they make it up, it's fine, but when the deposit is paid, his identity as the heir is confirmed. Then the title of bishop must be put down - it is just a springboard that does not actually exist, a story that is made up.

And Rodunk would never let himself be a bishop - the clergy are in a transcendent position and are the "vassal" of the Pope. When the lord or even the king has something to do, they have to seek the support of the archbishop. And if the bishop has a temple army under his command, it's really looking for a father for himself.

Moreover, the local bishop may not fully support the politics of the local country. The political inclination depends entirely on the Holy See.

But if it is an earl or grand duke with the thorn bird, it is not so scary - although it can be regarded as a powerful grand duke in terms of status, compared with the Grand Duke Yongfeng who holds a heavy army, it can only be said that he is a younger brother who can act as a gold medal thug.

The strength of the Iron Wall Knights when fighting with others is probably not inferior to the thorn bird. Now with the support of the Church represented by Vic White, and after this great battle, this army, together with the priest group, can definitely fight against the demon-level monster group head-on.

These 3,000 people are the Duke's Wolf Slayer Corps. They are not lacking in will and strength. What they lack is the experience of dealing with demons.

However, the strength shown by the Black Pearl Army can already be ranked with the Thornbirds and the Iron Wall Knights. Although it is at the end. But it is one-third of the core combat power in the entire Black Tide. Even if you don't look at the war lords summoned by the Black Pearls in Fallen Leaf City, it is enough to affect the tilt of the entire balance.

The extraordinary command ability and experience shown by the Black Pearl leaders in this battle left a very shocking impact on the priests and lords.

As long as Fernando talked to Wallace, he would know that this man named George was definitely not someone who could be fooled casually.

So George was not worried about the arrangement for himself-the momentum along the way had established the true status of the Black Pearl.

What he was wondering about now was what exactly the gift was - judging from Fernando's performance, it seemed very tempting.

He considered how to arrange this new bargaining chip to make this trip and the future shelter more successful.

He also thought about how to tear off this face to make it look better.
