Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

However, as the knight guards assigned to Master Weilin by Earl Eagle, they must fulfill their responsibilities to repay the Axe family for their training.

At the edge of the training ground, Weilin looked at the 12 knights two hundred meters away from a distance, and he already knew in his heart that these were the guards entrusted to him by the family.

He walked towards them while observing.

These twelve people were very young, roughly between 24 and 28 years old, which was enough to show their good talents.

If nothing unexpected happened, the twelve people entrusted to him by the family would be his right-hand men in the future.

As far as Weilin knew, it was absolutely impossible to train a team of bronze knights from scratch without spending tens of thousands of gold coins. And the talents of the twelve people trained had to be better, otherwise no matter how they were trained, they would be a bunch of waste.

The priest of the goddess of life standing by saw Weilin coming, raised his staff, and said in a deep voice: "Under the witness of the goddess of life, the oath begins."

"Draw the sword."

Baird heard the words and ordered loudly.

The other eleven people drew their knight swords, placed them on their chests, and saluted Weilin.

Seeing this, Weilin also drew out the short sword he carried with him, placed it vertically in front of his chest, and looked at the twelve people seriously.

"I, Baird."

"I, Andrew"

"..."

"Swear on my own honor, under the witness of the goddess of life, I swear to do my best to fight for the man in front of me, fulfill my duties, abide by the spirit of chivalry, and where his sword is, that is my direction."

"I, Weilin, as the object of your oath, accept your loyalty and never leave you. Please bear witness to the goddess of life."

A sacred light flashed, covering the thirteen people.

An invisible bond connected the fate of the twelve people to Weilin.

"The oath is completed, the great goddess of life will protect you." The old priest announced the end, and then went down to rest under the guidance of a butler.

The thirteen people put their swords into the scabbards at the same time, and the oath came to an end.

From this moment on, the twelve bronze high-level knights shared the fate of Weilin, and they rose and fell together.

"Everyone, you chose me, I will not let you down."

Wei Lin scanned the twelve people and memorized their faces.

Then, he went straight to the box where the weapons were stored, opened the lid, and revealed the excellent knight's long sword stored inside.

"As your suzerain, this is my gift to you."

"In addition, each of you can choose one of the red phosphorus horses here as your mount. I hope you can become my sword and open up my territory for me."

"Thank you, my lord." The twelve people answered in unison.

In a window of the main castle where they could not see, Earl Eagle witnessed all this with his own eyes.

Angus was very pleased with the actions of his fifth son.

For those who are loyal to you, you must be generous and not stingy, so that you can gather the minds of your men in the shortest time.

On the battlefield, it is always your knight who blocks the sword for you.

Your wife, your children, and even your brothers, can't do this for you.

This is the truth that Angus has gradually realized in the past thirty years.

"Go down and prepare. We will set off tomorrow morning, leaving Windsor Castle and heading for the provincial capital of Xihe Province."

"I will follow your instructions."

The twelve people beat their chests with their right hands, bowed their heads slightly, and said respectfully.

Watching their backs as they left, Weilin began to lightly count the remaining things. After making sure everything was correct, he ordered the servants to move these things to the carriage outside the secondary castle where he lived.

Afterwards, he went to the main castle to bid farewell to his mother.

After all, it was unknown how long it would take for them to meet again after this separation.

For example, the fourth brother who left five years ago has never come back once and has been struggling in an unknown place.

If you don't make a sound, you'll be amazing.

This is Weilin's evaluation of his fourth brother. His perseverance and talent are worthy of this eight-word evaluation.

I kept thinking about how to say goodbye to my mother.

Unconsciously, I came to the door of my mother's room.

Gently opened the door and watched my mother Alyssa sitting on the windowsill, weaving the scarf in her hand with the help of the sun.

The head maid standing next to her saw Weilin coming, lowered her head and whispered something.

Alyssa stopped what she was doing, raised her head and looked at Weilin.

For some reason, she had thought of many words in her mind, but she couldn't speak them for a while.

"Mother, I will leave tomorrow."

"Well, I know, my young eagle has grown up and is going to fly high. I have my own goals to strive for. I hope you can return with glory."

"That day will come, mother."

Weilin walked forward, hugged his mother, and said goodbye for the last time.

Thousands of words were gathered in this hug.

After an unknown amount of time, Weilin took the scarf his mother gave him and left her room.

After that, he went to his father's study and told him the fact of leaving, and received his advice and blessings.

After saying goodbye to his parents, Weilin returned to his room and asked his two underage guardian knights to pack up and prepare to leave tomorrow.

…

On April 3, 9720 of the Glorious Calendar, at the east gate of Windsor Castle, Weilin, wearing a light cloth armor and riding on a tall red phosphorus horse, looked at a corner of Windsor Castle and shouted, "Let's go."

Under his command, six carriages, twelve knights of the escort team, and two underage guardian knights formed a simple convoy, left Windsor Castle, and headed towards the capital of Xihe Province.

Xihe Province is located in the southern hinterland of the Kingdom of Ilia, with an area of ​​950,000 square kilometers. There are two marquisates, three earls, and more than one hundred viscounts and barons sandwiched between the five major noble territories, distributed at the junction, acting as a buffer zone.

In order to avoid the Sahaklos Mountains in Tiexiong Territory, Weilin decided to take a detour from the nearby Shanlin Territory to avoid the interception of hostile forces on the road and head to Xihe Province.

Although this would take more than 200 kilometers, it was better than having his budding power wiped out in one pot.

More than ten days later, after a journey of 600 kilometers, Weilin and his party arrived safely at the capital of Xihe Province, a large city directly governed by the royal family of the kingdom, covering an area of ​​400 square kilometers, with a jurisdiction of 10,000 square kilometers and a population of more than 2 million.

Caressing his mount, Weilin looked up at the 30-meter-high wall of the capital of Xihe Province, which was three meters higher than the tower of Windsor Castle.

In the sky, griffin knights flew by from time to time.

He remembered that the Ex family also supported a griffin knight group with 120 people, and each member was a mid-level silver.

In this world, from bottom to top, all professions can be broadly divided into apprentice, bronze, silver, gold, soul, legend, etc. As for the extraordinary level later, he didn't know it now.
