Chapter 224 Archduke Lehman
Since Grand Duke Lehman had feelings, Rollin said goodbye to Santos and the glorious knights, got on a carriage, and headed to Grand Duke Lehman's castle. ⊙
Compared with Lord Vandom, Grand Duke Lehman's castle is much worse in terms of precision and is completely incomparable in details. The only advantage is that the castle style is quite magnificent. Just one gate is more than 30 meters high and more than 20 meters wide. The row of decorative columns beside the door is more than two meters in diameter. The hall behind the gate is also extremely magnificent, with a depth of nearly a hundred meters, and is surrounded by huge statues. At first glance, a radiant atmosphere is coming to the face.
This is the Hall of Heroes. The statues in the hall are all heroes who have made great contributions to the survival of the Principality in the past dynasties. Almost all of them are legendary powerhouses.
If the Red Moon Sword Saint dies, his statue will also appear here. Because of this, this is also called the Sleep of the Saint.
When the carriage drove here, it kept stopping, but entered the hall, then walked around from behind the huge statue nearly forty meters high in the uppermost head, and passed through a gate to truly enter the Grand Duke Castle.
This is a wide garden. The road is designed to slow down and the carriage is a little bumpy when driving up. Next to the road is a very flat green lawn. Further out there are bright flowers. In the distance, there are thick ancient trees and clear streams that cannot be seen at first sight.
After continuing along the winding road for more than ten minutes, the carriage finally stopped in a large castle.
On the stairs at the entrance of the castle, a middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper was already waiting. When Luo Lin got off the carriage, he reached out to invite: "Your Excellency, please come with me. The Grand Duke is already waiting for you."
Luo Lin nodded. He followed the butler into the hall, went up to the second floor, and finally arrived at Grand Duke Lehman's study.
The butler made an invitation posture, and Luo Lin entered the spacious and bright study.
There were only two people in the room, one standing and the other sitting. The one standing was wearing battle armor and a straight face. This person was the eldest disciple of the Red Moon Sword Saint, the commander of the Principality, the great knight Diess, who was as famous as the knights in the south.
Of course, the Knights are now a thing of the past, so Diess can almost be said to be one of the most powerful knights in the Starlight Continent.
Of course, this is the opinion of ordinary people, mixed with many factors of fame, but the real ranking of power is really hard to say. For example, now Rolling, who is stronger and weaker than Dickins, can’t tell whoever is stronger and weaker. You have to fight before you can tell.
More importantly, Rowlin is only in his early 20s and looks at it from a game perspective. He is only at level 34, and he still has great potential for growth before he is promoted to the legend. And Dickins is already at level 39, and is in his early 40s this year. In five or six years, he should be able to be promoted to the legend, but compared with Rowlin, he will be able to be judged immediately.
The person sitting was about thirty years old, nearly forty years old, with a fat figure and excellent maintenance. He was wearing a gorgeous robe and a simple gem crown on his head. He was Grand Duke Lehman.
When he saw Luo Lin coming in, he smiled: "There are five days left before the date we agreed on, and you are very on time. Have you finished the work?"
Rollin nodded: "It's done, I've broken off from Lord Primo."
The grand duke smiled even more strongly and he kept saying, "Okay, that's good. Since you are back, we won't waste time. We will hold the viscount enthronement ceremony the day after tomorrow."
Rollin appropriately expressed doubts: "Vissue?"
"Yes, Viscount. Palasen believes that you should enjoy this honor. During this period, I have also learned more about your deeds, including the fact that you led a cavalry to raid the orc army and severely damaged the orc king in the Battle of Vendome. So I agree with Palasen's statement." Grand Duke Lehman smiled slightly, his eyes were very warm, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.
Luo Lin didn't feel any surprise. It has been two months since the cave to kill the vampire duke. He did not deliberately hide this matter. The matter spread to reason. Since that's the case, he nodded and accepted the reward from Grand Duke Lehman: "Thank you very much."
"This is what you deserve." Grand Duke Lehman smiled: "The ceremony will be held after the genius. Thank you for your hard work. You don't have to find another place. Let's rest in my castle in the past two days."
"I'm very honored."
Luo Lin was just a new arrival and had nothing to say. After answering a few questions from Grand Duke Lehman, he left and followed the housekeeper to the arranged room.
When Rollin left and disappeared, a servant closed the door of the study. The smile on Grand Duke Lehman's face suddenly calmed down and became serious. He looked at Diess: "What do you think of this person?"
The last time was in a hurry, and Rollin's story had not spread yet, so although the Red Moon Sword Saint intervened, he did not pay much attention to it and thought that this was just an ordinary genius. Not to mention such genius, but not too few. When he was young, Dickins and Zachro were all such geniuses.
But when the details of the Battle of Vendome came, Grand Duke Lehman was truly surprised that this Lord could raid the orc army with 700 cavalry and severely damage the orc martial saint, forcing the orc army to retreat, thus saving the lives of hundreds of thousands of people!
That is the orc martial saint! Under the protection of the army, this young man was able to defeat him and was seriously injured. This force was a bit terrible!
Dickins thoughtfully, "This Rollin is indeed very strong. If I attack him, it will be difficult to estimate the victory or defeat. However, if he has the ability to defeat the Martial Saint, I have some doubts. My mentor has seen him, and he is sure that this person has not been promoted to the legend."
"Maybe it was with some potions. You should know that the true body of Vianna Master Vaina is an emerald dragon. It should be possible to temporarily increase his power, right?" asked Grand Duke Lehman.
Dies nodded: "If you say that, with his martial arts, if the Orc King is contemptuous, then this result is possible. But no matter what, this man is a martial arts genius that is rare in a century and deserves great encouragement."
Grand Duke Lehman nodded, but for some reason, he felt a little sad: "At the age of twenties, he has achieved such achievements. Even if he is respectful on the outside, he will be proud on the inside. His future achievements are immeasurable, and he is afraid that it will be difficult to get along with."
He said it was tactful, but of course Dies could understand it. This grand duke was afraid that he would not be able to control this person.
This is a common problem for those in power.
If you are weak and incompetent, it is not easy to use. But if you are too strong, you dare not use it for fear of hurting yourself. For example, a person like Luo Lin is just a double-edged sword. If one is not good at using it, let alone assisting the principality and strengthening the strength of the principality, it will lead to a disaster.
Dies recalled the words of the Red Moon Sword Saint and recounted: "Duke, my mentor believes that this person has sincerity. If you can treat him with sincerity, even if you cannot be a helper, you will never backfire. He advised Daquan to treat him with sincerity, and not to think about control or to worry about gains and losses at any moment. This can be seen from the Premo family of Vendom, since he can desperately rescue the descendants of the Premo family, if you have kindness to him, you will definitely be rewarded in the future."
As soon as these words were said, Grand Duke Lehman fell into deep thought. As he thought about it, his eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly: "Pallasen can see clearly. My eyes are always blinded by power. I actually want to control such people, which is really a bit arrogant."
If he is an ordinary person, he has great achievements and certainly needs to control his master. However, everyone wants to recruit this talented and talented person. He has many choices. The Principal of Lehman was unhappy and suppressed. He ran directly to the Kingdom of Aulakhi next door. He cried without any place. So what he had to do was to make this man feel relaxed and happy and willing to stay in the Principal of Lehman.
After thinking it through, Grand Duke Lehman felt relieved and a smile appeared on his face: "I have three sons and one daughter, and my daughter is eighteen, and it is time to get married. I intend to get married, what do you think?"
Dies didn't bother to care about this matter and refused bluntly: "Duke, this is your family matter, you decide for yourself."
The grand duke laughed. He liked Diess' attitude and never meddled with other people's business: "My daughter is so beautiful and has a great talent in swordsmanship, so she may not be worse than Rollin. But I don't force it, I'll try it."
If his daughter concentrates on practicing with the Red Moon Sword Saint, the strength of a great knight will never be able to escape in more than ten years. Unfortunately, she is a daughter who is innately weak and can practice swordsmanship to a very exquisite level, but her power is definitely insufficient and she cannot achieve great success in the end. Therefore, the grand duke does not have expectations for the achievements of this daughter, as long as she is happy.
"Dear, there is something else." Diess spoke again.
"you say."
"As these days, our old neighbors have also heard the news and started to feel restless. Several powerful assassins came to the city. I think their target should be Rollin."
"Assassinate or abduct?"
Dies nodded: "From some clues, the person who came was from the Iron Hand Brotherhood, so it should be assassination."
The Iron Hand Brotherhood is a semi-official alliance of assassins in the Kingdom of Aulakhi. Among them, assassins are famous for their insidiousness and cunning, but there are also real masters. It is said that their senior officials are powered by a great knight, and with extremely professional assassination methods, the legendary strong men frowned.
"Haha, this guy Pamont is still young, and he only knows this way back and forth. Then I will work hard for you in the past few days. Find these mice as soon as possible and kill them."
Pamont is King Aoraki. He has just succeeded to the throne for five years and is only thirty years old this year. He has ambitions, but he lacks strategy. He always does not know how to be tactful and has rude means. Just like this time, when he heard that Grand Duke Lehman had received talent, he sent an assassin to come, and he thought about getting rid of his opponents. His mind would not turn at all, and he would not think about secretly trying to win over him.
Grand Duke Lehman looked down on this guy very much, but he was very glad that everyone hoped that his opponent was a pig head. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
