Since Arthur recovered, the entire Camelot has entered a period of peace. The war has gone away from them, the monsters have been eliminated, and the civilians are preparing for the winter. Although Camelot is not in peace and prosperity this year, they have overcome no matter what difficulties they have, and the autumn harvest is also a bumper harvest. In addition, the victory of the war has led to Camelot receiving generous war compensation, which has made many soldiers' families We all have enough money to survive this winter.
So although the weather is getting colder, the city is getting more and more lively.
Camelot will also usher in a grand event, the Knights Conference!
The triennial Knights Conference will finally be held again. Every Knights Conference is held before the New Year, and this year's one is no exception. Because there were so many knights signing up for this knight's conference, the opening was chosen to be held on December 15th, and then a champion knight would be chosen after fifteen days of competition.
When the Knights Conference ends, it will coincide with the Celtic New Year's Eve (December 31st), which is the Celtic New Year. This is the most important festival for the Celtics. On this day, people There will be a whole day of celebration, and only after the clock strikes midnight does it mean the beginning of the new year. In Kai's opinion, this festival is similar to the Spring Festival in his previous life. They are both New Year's Eve, and the name New Year's Eve is not just Kai's idea. Others really call it this name.
(This festival still exists in modern Scotland, and it is also the most traditional festival in Scotland. Others really call it this name)
In other words, starting from December 15th, the entire Camelot will enter a half-month-long carnival. But for many people, these fifteen days are not easy.
As the opening time of the Knights Conference gets closer, more and more knights arrive in Camelot. This caused a surge in the flow of people in Camelot City. These knights did not come alone. Even the worst-off among them would bring an attendant with them. Some wealthy knights would bring more attendants.
In addition, there are many nobles from other places who will come here, and the entourage of these nobles will be even larger. This causes the entire Camelot hotel to be full in early December. They can only rent some houses of civilians or businessmen.
This actually allowed the civilians in the city to make a lot of money before New Year's Eve. With so many people pouring into Camelot, they certainly need people to provide services for eating, drinking, and eating. As a result, many people have nothing to do in the winter. Every citizen can make some extra money.
Of course, in addition to boosting the economy, the influx of these foreigners also has some negative effects. Fights broke out frequently in the city.
Most of these knights are fledgling, and they came to Camelot just to make a name for themselves. Everyone is extremely confident in themselves, and they are at a young age, so naturally it is impossible to be a good child, so conflicts and quarrels are very common.
Most of the people in this era are the kind of macho men who start the movie immediately after a few beeps. Fights have become a common occurrence, and deaths are commonplace.
So this was a pain for Kai. He had already replaced Arthur as the commander of the Knights of Camelot, and he was responsible for the security of the city. Because of these over-energetic knights, Kai hasn't had a good night's sleep in almost half a month.
These tough guys have brought chaos to Camelot. After these guys drank a few cups of horse urine, they started to mess around. Fighting in public can be seen everywhere. The average number of abnormal deaths in Camelot every day is now 3.5 People die because of fights.
Kai had to deal with twenty or thirty cases of fights, injuries or even deaths every day. Kai, a real policeman, was determined to throw these bastards into the dungeon and detain them as if they were gang members. But this is BC, and knights have special privileges. Kai can't punish them. The most he can do is subdue them and release them when they calm down.
Unless they harmed the civilians of Camelot, Kai really didn't have much else to do.
Fortunately, King Uther had issued an order long ago that no knights were allowed to duel in private before the knights' meeting, so even if they fought, the knights were still restrained, and most of the unlucky ones who died were attendants. But Kai has no right to judge the squire's loss of life, because the squire's life belongs to the knight. Unless the knight takes the initiative to ask Kai to seek justice, there is nothing Kai can do... Those stubborn knights rarely seek justice through official channels. , they prefer to do it themselves in the duel.
Therefore, even before the Knights Conference has begun, the smell of gunpowder among the knights is already very strong. This is why the mortality rate in every Knights Conference remains high. These guys don't regard the Knights Conference as a competition at all. They regard the Knights Conference as a knights duel conference. Once they get on the stage, there is no such thing as holding back.
But then again, people of this era still like this tune, and King Uther is the representative figure. He likes to see the knights fighting selflessly.
Kai actually didn't like this kind of atmosphere. It was fundamentally different from later sports competitions. Brutal and bloody, this makes a police officer like Kai who has been in the police force for so many years very uncomfortable.
But the social atmosphere at this time was like this, and there was nothing Kai could do. He could only try his best to stop the fights and let the hot-blooded fools calm down a little.
No, Kai had just stopped a fight, and someone from the other side sent word that two nobles wanted to duel for some unknown reason. Neither party was willing to give in under the persuasion of the Camelot Knights. , all have to find Kai as a witness.
If the knights were hot-blooded and prone to passion, then the nobles were not much better. These people are deeply influenced by the spirit of chivalry. They don't like to find official ways to solve anything. Instead, they are more keen to solve it through duels.
And most of the reasons for duels are because of trivial matters.
These days, although the knights' meeting has not started, the knights' duel field cannot be deserted. Every day, nobles initiate duels in the knights' duel field because of some messy things.
This is very difficult for Kai. Not only does he have to deal with one after another fights every day, he also has to go to the knight's duel field to act as a witness.
There is no way, Who Called Kai has now firmly established the title of the first knight in the Celtic countries. Many knights and nobles felt that having Kai witness the duel was a very honorable thing.
When Kai arrived at the duel arena, he saw an acquaintance. Gwen was waiting at the door of the duel arena, and when she saw Kai, she immediately ran over. Kai was very curious. She was Morgana's maid. Why did she come to the duel field instead of staying with Morgana at this time?
"Gwen? Why are you here?"
