Game of Thrones: Knight of Glory - Chapter 143 True Mantis
It was Linde’s first time to witness a marriage. Everyone built a simple wedding altar in the camp, and most of the people in the camp gathered here to watch the ceremony.
Linde stood on the altar, flanked by the temporarily found symbols of Heavenly Father and Holy Mother. Afterwards, under the guidance of Black Harbor Bachelor, he completed the rituals of prayer, oath and singing, and then let the newlyweds kneeling in front Cloaks are exchanged and conjugal vows are recited.
“In the witness of the gods and the world, I, Lynde Terra, in the name of the Seven Gods, solemnly declare that Rossos of the Terra family and Oberna of the Weir family are married. From now on, you are Together, body, mind, and soul, forever, anyone who interferes with your marriage will be mercilessly cursed.”
When Linde read out the marriage oath, Obena, who had always been nervous, finally relaxed, while Rossos, on the other hand, seemed extremely excited.
He was excited not only because he was getting married to a future countess, but also because Lind gave Terra the surname and officially accepted him as a member of the Terra family, which also gave him a reputation in front of his wife in the future. Emboldened.
After completing the marriage proposal, Lind did not attend the simple wedding banquet set up in the camp, but walked towards Rosso Brun, who had just discussed the ambush with the Savage King.
At this moment, Rosso looked a little enviously at his colleague who was surrounded by everyone and receiving blessings. After all, the other person’s status was no longer the same. Perhaps he would have to call the other person “sir” when they meet in the future.
“Are you envious?” Lind walked up to Rosso and said.
“A little bit.” Rosso answered truthfully, but added: “Even if I was present and Oberna of the Weir family chose me, I probably wouldn’t agree.”
“Why?” Linde asked in surprise.
“Because this is not what I want.” Rosso shook his head and said: “Although Rosso’s status has become a real noble, he cannot go further, and in the future he will be with Obena Weir. If he has children, they will only have the surname Weir, and it is impossible for him, Rossos, to establish any inheritance family. “
“It’s good that you can see this clearly. Keep it up and don’t be dazzled by the immediate benefits.” Linde patted Rosso on the shoulder and said, “Besides, you don’t have to worry, there will be opportunities in the future. “
“Understood, sir.” Rosso nodded.
“How are things going over there?” Linde returned to the topic and asked.
“It’s all settled.” Rosso replied: “He will send someone to take us to the other side early tomorrow morning, and arrange our ambush location in advance to avoid the pre-inspection of the Weir City garrison soldiers. By night, they will be there There will be a handover over there, and when the time comes, we will attack the soldiers garrisoning in Well City.”
Lind nodded and waved to Jon, asking him to bring the bag prepared in the tent, then threw the bag to Rosso and said: “Let’s go, follow me to meet the warriors you led this time. ”
Rosso weighed the bag and felt it was very heavy. From the touch, he was sure it contained money. However, he did not open it immediately and looked at it. Instead, he followed Linde and asked, “I am not leading the cavalry in the camp.” ?”
Linde said solemnly: “Of course not. Except for you, none of us will directly intervene in the ambush of the Lord of Well City.”
Rosso did not ask any more questions and followed Linde silently. From his habit of taking out a knife to peel apples, it could be seen that his heart was not as calm as he appeared on the surface.
The two quickly left the village camp, followed through the Bone Passage, and entered a dense forest on the west side of the Bone Passage. Afterwards, they walked for a while and finally came to an open space under a cliff.
I saw that the open space was full of people at this moment. These people were all wearing the clothes of Linde’s soldiers. Judging from the bulge of the clothes, they should have put the clothes directly on the outside, and they were also wearing other clothes inside. These people all had their heads covered with hoods and cloths, so their appearance could not be seen.
When Linde and Rosso appeared, everyone alertly took out their weapons and looked over.
When they saw Lind, they immediately relaxed, and then they all knelt on the ground, expressing their respect for Lind in the savage language that Rosso couldn’t understand.
At this time, Glory, who had been missing from Linde for several days, appeared out of nowhere and came to Linde’s side, rubbing his head against Linde’s arm.
Linde also reached out and touched Glory’s head, satisfying Glory’s needs.
The attentive Rosso could find that these people kneeling on the ground were all simply disguised savage warriors. A rough count suggested that there were about a thousand people. From their size, it was not difficult to tell that they should all be elite warriors of the savage tribe. .
The eyes of these savage warriors kneeling on the ground looked at Linde with admiration, and looked at Glory with fear.
“Get up!” Linde touched Glory’s head a few times and then said to these savage warriors.
Under the translation of the leading savage warriors, everyone stood up one after another, and the leading savages also walked up to Linde, bowed and saluted, and said: “The great God’s Chosen One, Sans has chosen the best of each tribe. Elite warriors are selected and at your disposal.”
Linde frowned and asked, “After these people are selected, will they have any impact on the war there?”
“Please rest assured that with the help of the Holy Beast, the war over there ended easily. Our losses were minimal, and we also recruited warriors from those tribes. Our overall strength has not weakened but has also increased. Quite a few.” Sanz, who was proficient in Common Language, explained to Linde on behalf of the others, and his tone was extremely respectful: “Now the leaders have personally led the warriors of the tribe, waiting for your orders in the Deer Forest, and can attack the valley at any time. The Stone Mountain Tribe in “
Lind nodded, looked at Glory, and gave the next order. After receiving the order, Glory hit Lind with his head in dissatisfaction, growled at Lind a few times, and then turned around and walked into the shadow of the woods. Among them, he disappeared in front of everyone.
“He is the commander-in-chief of this operation. Your next actions must follow his command. There can be no mistakes. Do you understand?” Linde pointed at Rosso and said to several people very seriously.
Several people quickly turned around and saluted Rosso, and swore that they would obey Rosso’s command.
After that, Linde seriously told Rosso and several savage warrior leaders his plan, and explained some of the key points. After making sure that they all understood, he turned and left.
Not long after Linde left, Rosso led the savage warriors who had been simply prepared to leave the open space and rushed towards the location agreed upon by him and the savage king.
Another day passed quickly. Linde had been dealing with the issue of port location all day, as if he had forgotten that there was a key ambush underway on the other side of the Weir River.
Compared to Linde’s calmness, the bride Oberna’s mood seemed a little anxious and uneasy, because it was related to whether she could inherit the title and territory of Weir City.
Although the person who will be ambushed tonight is her biological father, it is difficult for her to have feelings for Wyland Weir. In the past ten years, the two have met only a handful of times. To her, he is just a stranger. , and this stranger’s illegitimate child also brought her two years of suffering, which made it even more difficult for her to have a father-daughter relationship with Wyland Weir.
“Sir, is there any news?” Obena, accompanied by Rossos, came to Linde’s tent for the third time to inquire about the situation.
Lind ignored Oberna’s inquiry, still lowered his head and quickly read the authorization document drafted by Jon, then handed it to the master mason who was waiting aside, and told Jon to lead a team of people to follow the master mason tomorrow. Go to the fishing village and discuss relocation with the village chief.
It is not difficult to find a suitable location for building a port. There is a natural harbor at the mouth of the Weir River, which is very suitable for building a port. There is also a quarry not far from the harbor. If you choose to build a port city here, , materials can be delivered directly from the quarry, without having to spend a lot of effort and money to purchase stone from other places.
The only problem is that this harbor is already occupied by a fishing village. For this reason, Linde can only move them to other places, or hire them to build the harbor city according to the practice in his previous life. After the harbor city is built, he will directly incorporate them into the harbor. Among the residents of the city, they are given houses, hired to serve in the port city, etc.
I believe that under such favorable conditions, no matter how stupid a person is, he will know how to choose.
After finishing the matter at hand, Linde looked at Obena and Rossos, who had been standing quietly for a long time, and said: “Ms. Obena, you don’t have to worry. No matter whether things go smoothly or not, you will return to Weir City. Appear in the castle as the sole heir of Well City. With my support, you will successfully become the lord of Well City, so please calm down. If there is nothing else, I think you should go back to your tent and do your best. It would be the best thing to do to get pregnant this year.”
After receiving Lind’s reassurance, Obena relaxed a little and without saying anything else, she and Rossos turned and left the tent.
Nymeria looked at the newlyweds leaving and said, “Rothos has been tightly controlled by her in just one day. It seems that Rothos will suffer the consequences in the future.”
Linde smiled and said: “Do you have to control it? Rossos is not as simple as you see. In the end, it is not certain who will control whom.”
Nymeria suddenly raised her eyebrows and said to Lind: “You just asked them to do what they should do in the tent. I think we should also do what we should do. And I also want to get pregnant this year.”
Linde couldn’t help but smile after hearing this, and he put away the official documents on the table in cooperation, got up and returned to the tent with Nymeria.
At the same time, on the south bank of the Weir River, in a small valley about thirty leagues away from Linde’s village camp, a fierce battle had just ended. A group of savages wearing animal skins were chasing the fleeing Weir City defenders. warrior.
However, if you look closely, you will find that the way they chase is a bit strange. It is more like driving away than chasing.
Compared with those Weir City garrison soldiers who escaped, many more garrison soldiers died in the valley. A rough count of them was more than six or seven hundred people.
Near the entrance of the valley, there were some carriages loaded with goods parked there. Next to the carriage, the Savage King stood in front of the body of Wyland Vale, surrounded by the corpses of some knights and wildling warriors. The wounds easily showed how fierce the battle had just been.
Although half of Wyland Weir’s head had been smashed into a corpse, his surprised expression before death could still be seen on the remaining half of his head. Obviously, he never thought that his illegitimate son would suddenly face such a problem until his death. He delivers a fatal attack.
The Savage King stood next to the corpse, panting. The special leather armor on his body had several holes, all in very deadly positions. Fortunately, a thin iron plate under the leather armor blocked these attacks, preventing him from being hit. Any injuries.
Although the revenge he had been looking forward to for many years had been completed at this moment, he was not at all happy, because the people gathered around him were not the Earl of Summer Hall’s army that he had seen before, but a group of savage warriors, and from the language used by these savages It is certain that they are all from the Red Guard clan.
“Sans, Bado, are you?” By the light of the torch, the Savage King saw clearly the appearance of the two leading Savage leaders, and his face darkened.
“Hamil, congratulations, you finally avenged your stupid mother!” Bardot, who had half white hair, looked at the Savage King, and then looked down at the human skin he had just peeled off Wylan Weir in his hand. Underwear, with a strong look of sadness in her eyes, she said: “She is obviously a savage, but she dreams of becoming a noble outside the mountains, but in the end she is skinned and made into leather clothes. She is a stupid woman.”
Undoubtedly, this Baduo should have had some relationship with the Savage King’s mother.
“Now is not the time to be sentimental about your old lover,” Sanz pushed his companion away, looked at the Savage King, and said, “Hamil, you don’t have to go back to the Crimson Mountains anymore. Those tribes you abandoned They have all been dealt with by us, and the Stone Mountain tribe you left in the valley should have disappeared by now, and there is no place for you to stand in the Crimson Mountains.”
After hearing Sanz’s words, the Savage King’s breathing immediately became much heavier, and he clenched the mace in his hand. It seemed that he was ready to fight to the death.
However, the enemy in front of him had no intention of attacking him, and then he saw Rosso walking over from the crowd and standing in front of the Savage King.
“Will the Chosen One also break his oath?” the Savage King asked.
“The Earl will never break his oath. He has abided by his oath and helped you take revenge.” Rosso, who was covered in blood, looked indifferently at the savage king who was at the end of his rope. He wanted to get rid of him immediately. But he finally endured it and did not dare to disobey Linde’s order.
He took out the bag that Lind gave him yesterday, threw it at the feet of the Savage King, and said: “There are four hundred golden dragons in here. The resettlement fee given to you by the Earl, you take this money You can live a prosperous life in any city.”
After speaking, he raised his hand and made a gesture, and the savages around him made way.
The Savage King stood there for a long time, bent down and picked up the bag on the ground, holding his mother’s leather coat made of human skin in his other hand, turned around and walked out of the encirclement, disappearing into the darkness of the valley.
