High Above Chapter 496

  Chapter 496 Lord Knight Ian (13)

   Become a lord?

  Even for Ian, this result was too shocking. Ian looked at Isengard and asked.

  —Did you know about this? Surprise for me?

  The other party shook his head blankly.

  —how could I know!

   Indeed, Isengard knew nothing of it.

  Theoretically speaking, Mrs. Ellen did not have the right to confer the title of lord. Even the Marquis Ellen himself can only reward the knights in his own territory, and certainly cannot control Nanling.

  And Laian Territory... own territory is in Laian Territory? Right. Baron Ryan is dead, and he has no descendants, and his relatives may not meet the requirements of the empire. In this case, it should be split into several knights and given to some mountain knights and knights like himself. The Imperial Knights.

  Ian has contributed to the incident in the Leon Territory. It is reasonable for him to be able to share a piece of territory, but it is not realistic... The main reason is that he is so young and has no credit. How could it be...

unless…

   "Wait. I said why all my credits were piled up on the identity of the inspector knight before, and the feelings are waiting for me here?

Ian suddenly realized that he had made a lot of contributions along the way, especially in assisting Tres to put down the train hijacking incident in the end. Although he got off the train halfway to avoid possible traps, but all the credits added up, his qualifications are indeed enough up.

   The question is, who is doing it for him?

"Is it the Marquis of Barton? Or Mrs. Ellen? Or the second prince? Forget it, they are all in the same group, let alone a knight leader. For these people, it is probably used to bind me. It's a trivial matter." ..."

  With a lot of thoughts in his mind, Ian had already entered the mansion with Isengard, and under the guidance of the maid, he entered a separate room on the side.

  Ellen's main residence in the imperial capital is resplendent even in the corridors. There are lamps like the sun hanging on the straight corridors, giving people a sense of warmth.

Isengard left halfway, Madam Ellen had something to say to him, and after Ian was brought into a gate, there was a set of silver-gray patrol knights' standard armor that was the same as that worn by Tres before. .

"The question is, why are they so anxious to make me a lord? I am a citizen, a first-level knight, and I have basically touched the edge of the nobility except for the second level. I can do anything big. Qualified—I go back to Nanling now, get a development document, and I can lay a new foundation in the redwood forest, they probably don't know about it.”

While thinking, the young man finished putting on the armor with the help of his attendants: "So, this territory is not only used to win me over...I can choose. To put it bluntly, this sentence means that in the future, the entire land will be All the Leon collars are mine, so there is no difference, you can choose whichever you like."

"Let's not talk about the protests of the mountain people, they are meaningless, and I can negotiate with the elder Manya... After all, the origin of alchemy materials as large as Leian was given to me like this? Viscount Grant is angry! So it is absolutely impossible Just for me..."

   "Could it be that the struggle within the Ellen family is intensifying... They want to prepare a retreat for Isengard?"

  Thinking of this, Ian felt that he had grasped the core of the problem. He looked around the entire Ellen family mansion, and the water-colored halo lit up.

   Immediately, two dark silver and dark purple rays of light lit up, plus a large amount of blue or purple mist... It was closed immediately after a glance.

  In the residence of the Ellen family, there are two fourth energy levels! And Mrs. Ellen herself is also a high-level sublimator of the second energy level!

  When you reach the heart light level, which is the peak of the second energy level, you can't just drink potions to solve it. If the sublimator does not clarify his own will and beliefs, integrate the soul and body into one, and achieve the state of smelting one, the heart light will not be born.

  It's hard to say whether Mrs. Ellen has this talent, but at the very least, she is not a fragile lady without faith. It's just that she hasn't reached the point of no hesitation, so she hasn't advanced to the third energy level.

   As for the other two fourth energy levels...

   "They are all acquaintances."

  One was the one I met at the headquarters of the Patrol Knights before, the deputy head of the Patrol Knights, the 'Frost Trail Knight'.

   And the other... is the heart light body of the second prince Mikael.

   There was no Marquess Ellen, not even Marquis Ellen's subordinates present.

   "Sure enough."

  Ian thought about it, and he probably understood: "Marquis Ellen himself has a rather ambiguous attitude towards Isengard. The internal struggles in the Ellen family must be quite fierce. If they continue to stay in the imperial capital, their safety may not be guaranteed."

   "But if it is in the far southern border, Isengard will at least have a place of refuge in times of crisis, where it can avoid some assassinations that are too dangerous."

  The patrol knight armor is actually surprisingly advanced. Although it is not sublimated armor, it has many functions.

  After the attendant placed the T-shaped mental armor piece on the back of Ian's neck at the 'Xungu', he noticed that the front of the black crystal helmet in front of him was lit up with dense layers of subtitles and logos.

   "Oh? Is it actually an information armor?"

Now Ian was a little surprised. The subtitles that appeared on the inside of the helmet included many aspects, including time, temperature, wind speed, and key target screening... Although the accuracy is much lower than that of the silver chip, looking at the UI, it seems that patrolling When the supervisor knights are performing tasks collectively, can they conduct voice conversations and even subtitle communication through the built-in communication device?

   This is... quite useful.

  This kind of coordinated combat equipment should be commonly used within the elite military forces of the Central Empire.

"and…"

  Ian squinted his eyes. He conducted reverse exploration through the signal at the bone, and found that there is actually a direct connection port on the back of the armor... and it is a special, physically encrypted port for the armor.

   "If you don't wear similar armor or equipment, you can't drive a military armor? Sure enough, the pirate armor was just a special case. It seems that it will be difficult to grab an armor and start driving directly."

   "No. With my current status, I don't need to rob, but to be recruited."

   Wearing armor, Ian came to the hall. Sure enough, Mrs. Ellen, Isengard, deputy head of Shuangji, and a shining bird-shaped heart light body all looked at him.

  They seemed to be communicating about the Lonely Mountain meeting before, but after Ian came, they turned their attention to him.

"That's right, you are very adaptable to Xungu - Isengarde told me that you are a genius armored driver, and you defeated the second-level monster in Nanling when you drove the pirate armor for the first time. The adaptation in this aspect Sex is also true genius."

  Mrs. Ellen said appreciatively: "I was a little skeptical at first, but seeing that you can manipulate this armor so smoothly, I immediately believed it."

  The deputy head of Shuangji on the side also had a very interested expression: "It is quite adaptable. As expected of a psychic, it is quick to get started in this area."

  Ian was stunned for a moment. He really didn't notice any difficulty in manipulating this standard armor at first—but after Mrs. Ellen said it, he noticed it.

   "So that's how it is. This armor is very heavy. Even a sublimator needs to exert force to drive it. It needs to cooperate with the Xinggu to let the armor drive itself, so that it can move freely as usual."

  Ian couldn't help blaming himself for his carelessness. He was so used to the feeling of accessing external devices that it felt like returning to his own home, and he couldn't feel any doubts.

  For the humans in the world of Terra, although they all have the Xungu, an organ used to communicate with various electronic devices and psionic devices, they do not actually have this habit.

  He accidentally acted too genius, remember this time.

Just as Ian thought, the reason why the heart light body of the deputy head of Shuangji and the second prince Mikael is here is to replace the Marquis of Barton, as Ian was awarded the title of the knight leader of the former Lean Territory. witness.

  In the rank of knight, there are many ranks below the grand knight of the third energy level.

  After all, not all second level can become nobles, and not all knights need a territory to become knight lords.

  In the Knights of the Patrol, there is the title of "Knight of the Watch", which is generally awarded to veteran knights with a lot of meritorious service, who have the qualifications to lead the team independently and establish a branch of the Knights in the local area.

  In the palace, there are also royal knights directly belonging to the royal family. Even the Four Orthodox Churches have the qualifications to be canonized as holy knights.

  But the most common titled knight in Terra is actually still a lord knight.

   Now, Ian is about to be canonized as a lord.
