The last month of the year is always given different meanings by different races. In most areas in the northern part of the human race, it will start to snow around December 1st. The snow season on the Benma Plain is earlier, about Late November.
Snow will also fall in other areas around December 10th at the latest, so the kingdoms and regions in the northern part of the human empire will generally hold celebrations on December 1st to celebrate the last month of the year and look forward to heavy snowfall at the end of the year. Have a good harvest.
The celebrations that the count mentioned a few days ago were eventually held at Dinrot Castle and not at Blue Magpie Castle. In the end, the Count still did not want the galloping horse flag to reappear under Blue Magpie City.
On the morning of December 1, Earl Maned Wolf led a group of vassals to the Viscounty of Lot, granted Lan a formal title, and inspected Lan's army.
Several viscounts and barons came with the earl. Most of these nobles were on the account that Lant found. They had already made a deposit for the black-scaled horse and iron armor, and now they came with the contract in the hope that Lant would abide by the law. Viscount Te's previous agreement.
There were also guests such as the ascetic Wright Dolaina and the paladin Burt Call, Antrege Blue Dragon and Gulea Blue Dragon.
"In the name of His Majesty the God Emperor and His Majesty Duson White Owl of the Dragon Kingdom, after the suggestion of the northwest earl of the Kingdom, Kebbins Maned Wolf, and the resolution of the Kingdom's Noble Council, and approved by the Empire's Holy Supreme Council, it is now agreed that the original Luo The nephew of Viscount Bob Rotter, the fourth son of Baron Huck Galloping, Lant Galloping, an intermediate knight, inherits the title of Viscount Rotter."
Witnessed by a crowd of nobles and guests, the earl read the letter of appointment and dismissal to Lant in person.
"Thank you, Lord Earl, I..."
"Don't rush to pledge your allegiance yet, Lant." The Earl smiled, "The title of Viscount is definitely yours, but before you can officially inherit it, you need to pass the examination of the Imperial Knights."
According to the tradition of knights and the nobility regulations of the kingdom, only after becoming a junior knight or junior magician can one be appointed or removed from a formal title.
"Take this." The Earl handed Lant a letter. "This is the knight school in Blue Dragon City. There are training, assessment and recognition qualifications for junior to senior knights. You are already an intermediate knight. All you need to do is If you pass the corresponding assessment, you can get the knight's magic badge."
"Let us congratulate Lant Galloping Horse, the hero of our Northwest Territories against the Gray Goose invasion, and the future Viscount Roth. His Excellency McLaren has said that as long as you obtain the knighthood, he is willing to recommend you as a member of His Majesty's court. Viscount"
"Oh, Palace Viscount"
"Yes." "That all belongs to His Majesty's closest ministers."
Amidst the applause, the simple appointment and dismissal ceremony was over. Because Lant was still a reserve knight in the kingdom's official record of demon-lovers, he could only get a letter of appointment and dismissal, and could not officially act in the name of Viscount Roth.
Fortunately, the earl, representatives of the Blue Dragon family and representatives of the Holy See all saw Lant defeating the senior knight level head-on. No one will question Lant's level, so the remaining work only requires Lant to obtain the knight's badge, and it can be official Became a viscount.
After the appointment and dismissal, there was a luncheon. The Lot Castle itself was spacious and bright, and it did not seem crowded when it welcomed so many nobles. Lant also set up a huge tent in front of the main castle in advance for the accompanying demon-free ones. , knight’s buffet and rest area.
Since the inventory of monster meat and food in Lot Castle had been severely depleted, Lant had to send multiple hunting teams to the Galloping Horse River and the Great Forest to hunt and replenish meat varieties within two days.
Lant's level of concern for the banquet even surprised Huck. In Huck's view, both the earl and the vassals knew that Lot's territory had just escaped from the barbarian occupation and had nothing. In this case, the earl You should even bring some Warcraft meat and food when you arrive to help Lant survive the difficulties.
However, Lant didn't think that the earl could bring his own meat, pots, seasonings, cooks and tableware. After all, there was no family in the Northwest Territory that specialized in hosting banquets.
After three days of hard work, Kuryagan finally made a few small iron pots with handles. Now Rand, who is more than two meters tall, can finally start cooking.
When he was studying and working abroad in his previous life, Lant often cooked for himself. Now, after wandering on the grassland for two months, he was finally able to cook for himself again. Lant's inner happiness immediately improved.
Earl Maned Wolf arrived with his vassals at about 9 o'clock. When he saw the large tent camp under Roth Castle, he felt infinite greed in his heart. After all, there were 4,000 territorial citizens and 600 demon supporters. , in terms of quantity alone, it has exceeded the size of the subjects and knights directly under the earl, and is only slightly smaller than the entire maned wolf family.
The old maned wolf has a 17-year-old daughter who has inspired the blood of the Demon Holder. She is sweet and lovely, with a courageous and strong personality. She is also a famous girl in the aristocratic school of Blue Dragon City. He even began to consider whether to give up his little daughter. The daughter was given to Lant, but as soon as the earl thought of his daughter, he saw the 3-meter-tall Gu Leia in the team behind him.
No matter how strong the maned wolf was, it couldn't defeat a dragon. After the count figured it out, he no longer considered forcing Lalant to get married.
Although the old maned wolf was stingy, he tried his best to take care of and balance his subordinates. Considering that Lant had only been stationed in Roth Castle for five days, the earl really brought a lot of Warcraft meat, grains, seasonings, cooks and tableware.
After all, in the opinion of the earl and most of the guests, the only dishes available in the Lant camp were barbecues and stews. What kind of world could the fourth son of a baron have seen, and what delicious food could he have eaten?
So the earl and his vassals saw a table full of dried fruits mixed with vegetables, stir-fried wild vegetables with mushrooms, river shrimp and goose custard, stir-fried steel-bristle pork with fungus, fried river shrimp with salt and pepper, grilled swordfish with vanilla leaves, and stewed potatoes. The entrees include beast of burden meat, mushroom and steel-bristle pig's hand stewed bean soup, and monster meat brought by the earl, and honey goose egg rolls for dessert.
"Lante really surprised me. Although these ingredients are not uncommon, but they can be combined like this, it is indeed... very delicious, especially when you have only been in Lot for a few days." In order to show that he is not a special trip The count came to eat, and he had to taste a few bites of each dish before he started praising it.
"Thank you, Lord Count, for your affirmation." As the owner of the castle, Lant sat together with the most important guest, the Count, and the two held glasses to express their gratitude.
It is a pity that the Earl's comments did not win the support of any other nobles, including Lant's father and several brothers, because their mouths were full of food and it would be extremely rude to speak, so the entire luncheon Only the sound of chewing accompanied the whispered chat between Lant and the Count.
