As soon as the Duke finished speaking, the door of the headquarters opened.
Xiaobai came in wearing a little white dress.
Apparently Elizabeth didn't have such obvious secondary sexual characteristics when she was as tall as she was, so the dress actually seemed to fit her perfectly.
She glanced at the knights in the room: "As expected, there is no meat here. Fortunately, there are candies given by the good mother-in-law."
After saying that, she took out the candy and threw it into her mouth.
Everyone fell silent when they saw her action.
The Duke coughed, then raised his voice: "Forest people, tell me your name."
Wang: "Her name is Xiaobai."
Elizabeth reached out and pulled the mage's sleeve: "This is the official name, nicknames are not good."
Xiaobai: "The smart guy over there is right, I'll call you Xiaobai. My real name is too long and it's too troublesome to call me."
Wang dutifully served as the commentator: "The names of werewolves are longer than the names of the Solace people in the North, so even they tend to use abbreviations."
As Wang explained, everyone looked at Langdon's old butler Merlin in the room. He and his wife were from Solace.
Bruce nodded: "Okay, in that case we will respect the werewolf customs. So, Xiaobai, you killed the Grand Mage Morgan of the River Valley last night..."
Xiaobai poured the candy in his mouth and interrupted vaguely: "I didn't kill him. He had stone skin on his body. He must have been seriously injured and he couldn't cast spells. Healing spells should be able to save him."
Wang: "The Archmage is an old man. In the current Langdon Territory, treatment techniques have weak side effects. Young people and even middle-aged people are basically fine, but the scab on the wound will be more obvious. But the old man can't stand it and needs to be removed. disease."
Xiaobai: "I know, you told me. None of the many priests are ready to remove the disease?"
Bruce intervened in the conversation: "That seems to be the case. After all, the River Valley Army came last night for a short-term decisive battle, so they all prepared team-type buff magic. If it was for a long-term decisive battle, they would probably prepare to remove the disease to deal with conditions like malaria.
"You also killed the commander of the River Valley Army last night..."
Xiaobai: "You mean the one who kicked me in the ham?"
The situation became very awkward again.
Bruce is worthy of being the successor appointed by the old fox. He said in a very serious tone: "Yes, he is the one who kicked your ham. You killed him and made great contributions to our rapid defeat of the River Valley Army. So I decided to grant you the title of baron." ."
Xiaobai looked at Wang doubtfully: "What is a baron?"
King: "You will have a territory in the future, and most of the food on the territory belongs to you."
Xiaobai: "You humans are really troublesome. You still need the chief to give us your territory. Whoever is more powerful among us werewolves will have this land."
At this time, the old butler Merlin came out with the title deed of the territory, proof of the lord's authority and other documents.
So Bruce walked up to Xiao Bai, first took a large medal tied to a ribbon from the butler, and put the ribbon from the wolf girl's right shoulder to her left lower abdomen.
The knights looked at this scene, and many of them showed envious expressions. Many of their titles were inherited from their ancestors. After all, Langdon Territory had not fought a war in sixty years. Without war, there would be no titles for meritorious service.
Many lords are eager to add some fiefdoms to themselves this time.
This time the fiefdom was given to a werewolf druid who didn't know where he came from.
When Bruce turned to get the land deed, Xiaobai picked up the medal in confusion, and then bit it down.
The werewolf's sharp teeth suddenly made clear scratches on the medal's surface.
Bruce was shocked, and his hand holding the land deed stopped.
Xiaobai spit out the medal, took a few sips, and turned to ask the king: "Smart, what's the use of this? There's no magic smell on it!"
Wang: "That's just a piece of iron. It has no value apart from its symbolic meaning. It's not even gold."
Elizabeth quickly corrected: "There are gold and silver ingredients, but not a lot."
Wang immediately changed his mind: "Xiaobai, you can sell it for money."
Elizabeth and Bruce shouted together: "Don't!"
Wang: "Your Excellency, I know that you are conferring honors now to boost morale. After all, the emperor still has more than 20,000 people. Even if the priest was very good and rescued many people last night, the loss should not be small."
"I estimate that there are less than a thousand professional soldiers in the city, and including the mercenaries from the Chamber of Commerce, the combat strength is just over two thousand. The rest are city militia.
"You need to keep morale high."
Bruce was speechless: "You are right. Although I just confidently said that the emperor has lost, in fact, our crisis has not completely passed."
Wang: "It's over. My left eyelid twitched. Last night was probably the biggest experience."
The knights and knights in the commander's room looked at each other and talked about it.
Bruce looked at Wang suspiciously: "What...what do you mean? Why is it okay when your left eyelid twitches?"
Wang: "A twitching left eyelid is a good sign."
Bruce looked confused.
Wang Ye looked confused: "Yesterday, my right eyelid jumped. That's why I issued a warning. What happened next confirmed my warning, didn't it?"
Everyone looked at each other, and someone said loudly: "Is it a warning if your right eyelid jumps? Isn't it a bit nonsense?"
"Yes, it must be a coincidence!"
Bruce raised his hand to stop everyone's discussion and asked seriously: "Did you give me a warning?"
Wang looked surprised: "I told Marika and Cassander. Didn't Cassander report to you?"
Cassander cleared his throat awkwardly: "I... just brushed it off without emphasizing that it was a warning. I thought it wasn't important. After all, it was just an eyelid twitch."
Wang: "This is very important. I am a mage of the prophecy system. I did not choose this myself. My teacher forced me to choose it. I just chose to oppose the protection system.
"My teacher said that I am the darling of fate. This is not a good word, because all the gifts of fate are secretly marked with a price. The last time my right eyelid twitched, my uncle's soul was severely damaged. He can only rely on memory crystals to assist him. Keep your own notes.
"Fortunately, I am a mage of the prophecy department, so every time a gift from fate comes, it will give me a sign. This is why my teacher asked me to choose the prophecy department."
Bruce looked Wang up and down: "Your left eyelid twitched today, so the obstacle has passed? But I think you didn't pay any price?"
Wang responded solemnly: "Why not? First of all, yesterday in Tang's office, Erwin raided us. He is a powerful mage who can use the Finger of Death. He chose to use the Finger of Death on Elizabeth at that time. It was our team The dwarf priest above was experienced and used the aid spell to trick Erwin.
“Otherwise, your resurrection scroll can only be used to resurrect your sister.
"Despite this, your subordinate, the fourth-ring mage Fernie, died. And another of your subordinates, the rogue, also died in Tang's office. I forgot his name.
"Then after Elizabeth teleported out, she was immediately attacked by the enemy. When I turned into a dragon yesterday and found her, I saw that her sleeve was gone. She obviously cut it to treat the wound. She must have been in danger yesterday."
Elizabeth nodded: "Yes, if it weren't for the defensive bracers Mrs. Mellie gave me, I would be a dead person."
Wang continued: "Also, after I relieved Elizabeth last night, I went to attack the River Valley Army. As a result, I suffered a six-ring dissociation spell. If I hadn't been in dragon form at the time, I would have been dead. Then I suffered a lot of injuries in the ground fight."
Bruce: "But it doesn't matter if you die, right? Your teacher will resurrect you, and then your uncle will come over with the demon army to kill you."
Wang: "Yes. But from now on, I must be separated from Elizabeth. Maybe I won't be able to see her again until I have the ability to travel through planes and time. I don't want this. No, I refuse such a fate!"
Elizabeth's feet were weak, and her brother Wayne quickly gave her a hand.
Wang is still saying: "And my teammates. This is the first time I have made friends on my own. The dwarf is an experienced priest, very reliable and interesting. Although Gotrek looks stupid, I feel that he He is a man of great wisdom. Misha Sara always tells dirty jokes, and Xiaobai acts on instinct all day long. I am very much looking forward to the adventures with such a teammate!
"I don't want to be separated from my friends! Not even for a moment!"
The mage's words were resounding.
Elizabeth was speechless, but she stood up immediately and said "thank you" to Wayne.
Bruce was speechless: "I finally understand that your value judgment of things is very different from ours. But, as you said, what happened last night was indeed a huge crisis. But with our wisdom and courage, we And a little bit of luck got over it.”
Xiaobai: "I understand. But what about gifts? What's the matter with not giving gifts after taking the price?"
King: "Think about your ham."
Xiaobai suddenly realized: "Oh, indeed."
Wayne looked at his sister meaningfully.
At this time, Bruce coughed, focused his attention on himself, and then asked solemnly: "So this morning, your left eyelid twitched, and we have passed the most difficult difficulty, right?"
Wang: "Yes. At least my friends and I will not be in danger again. And we have no intention of leaving Langdon Territory during the emperor's attack, so the emperor will fail."
Wang's loud words once again aroused discussion.
Everyone in the command room was smiling.
Bruce laughed the most happily, even laughing out loud. He looked back at the happy people, reached out and patted Wang on the shoulder: "I know you are unintentional, but... God, I always have the guts for you to do it." Prime Minister, I have a hunch that Quasania can replace Monrovia.”
After saying that, he suddenly stopped smiling and turned around and shouted: "But you can't be careless! You must be prepared to defend the city!"
At this time, Wang said: "Actually, there is a simpler way to end everything. The artifact I got can transform into a dragon once a day. That means I can transform again 24 hours after the last transformation."
Bruce was overjoyed: "Are you planning to surprise the emperor tonight?"
"No, no, the attack effect of the encamped army is relatively poor. Tomorrow at noon, they will be approaching Langdon City, and when they form a marching column, I will give them one attack."
Wayne took a step forward: "We can cooperate with Long and launch a cavalry charge."
Bruce: "No, no, if the cavalry leaves the city, they will be discovered by the light cavalry of the Amur Mercenary Regiment, and the emperor will be warned. Dragons are different. Dragons fly fast, and the cavalry will not have time to warn. That's it. It's decided. Now let's award the medal first. The ceremony is over."
King: "I don't want territory."
Bruce: "Then exchange it for gold of equivalent value. The mage should be in great need of gold."
Wang thought for a while: "Indeed."
Xiaobai: "Can I also change it to gold! I want gold! And meat!"
