Bertrand! Everyone in the bar opened their eyes.

This famous archery master is well-known in the Earl of Glamorgan. Since he surrendered to the Earl of Lane, he has made many achievements on the battlefield and made many contributions, especially in the war to destroy the Beastmen. The hand that decides the outcome of the battlefield - his archery is too powerful. When the battle situation is anxious, Bertrand can always snipe the enemy leader and let the human army win the final victory.

After the surrender, Bertrand was promoted again and again by Ryan, from the platoon leader of the archers to the company commander of the archer company, and then to the deputy battalion commander of the Xialong Forest Patrol Battalion, with an annual salary of 30 gold crowns. Bertrand relies on his own The strength has been respected by everyone in the territory, and even some knight masters occasionally chat with him.

Therefore, Bertrand gradually got a nickname called "Green Arrow" Bertrand, which means that he always likes to wear green cloaks, tights and his precise archery can be comparable to the wood elves.

"Okay, I'll be here soon, what more do you want?" Maddie, the proprietress, nodded quickly, she smiled flatteringly, and almost bent down: "It's amazing that a big man like you can come to the store. "

"Ha~ What's the matter, I'm used to it." Bertrand had two long mustaches. He threw a silver coin and landed on the bar. The proprietress' hand speed was comparable to that of the strongest wanderer. Hands wiped from the table, and it was as if nothing had appeared on the greasy bar.

Whispering in the bar until an alcoholic speaks up.

"Bertrand! Are you going to be promoted to knight?"

"Bertrand! Will you still remember us mud legs after you are promoted to knights?"

"Can you buy me a drink? Bertrand, I'm out of money."

In the face of the repeated questions from everyone, Bertrand laughed heartily: "Haha~ How can it be so easy, what do you think the knight is? You think that the lady in the lake sends an oracle, and everyone has the opportunity to become a knight. Now? Wake up, there are only three places a year! You still think about whether your performance can be in the eyes of Earl Ryan!"

"I didn't say we could, we just think you have a chance!" said a sloppy alcoholic with a long beard, who was a little resentful: "I said, you invite me to a bar, and I don't want anything else. ."

"Hey, you old guy, you only care about your empty glass!" Bertrand scolded a few words, and then sat next to Raymond.

The proprietress immediately came over and poured Bertrand a full glass of Imperial Stout, which was almost overflowing.

Raymond was a little unhappy that his limelight was robbed by Bertrand, but he really had nothing to compare with Bertrand. Although the young man was a bit young and vigorous, he also knew that he was only a soldier of the count now. Even without the identity of a free citizen, young people can only bow their heads and drink.

The wine always drank quickly. Raymond noticed that before he knew it, the large wooden beer mug, which could hold several hundred milliliters, had bottomed out. The earl's halberdier took the mug and put it down. .

The proprietress immediately noticed Raymond's abnormality, and she walked up to the young man with a smile: "Guest, do you want to refill?"

"Well..." Raymond was suddenly caught in a dilemma. He planned to drink a large cup of Imperial Stout, but if he had a second cup, it would mean another eighty copper coins, although the halberdier The salary is good, and the money can't be spent like this.

From a poor family, Lei Meng, who finally escaped with his old mother and younger brother, knew the truth of saving, but the good face of the young man made him a little reluctant. The proprietress meant that you should either refill the cup or prepare to leave. It's common sense that you can't stay there after drinking.

Many drinkers snickered secretly. After all, the earl's soldier is still too young and innocent. For drinkers, one third to one quarter of the bottom of the glass is left untouched. common sense.

Just when Raymond was wondering whether to take out another silver coin to refill the cup, Bertrand took out another silver coin, and he pointed to Raymond beside him: "Matti, give this little brother a refill!"

"Is it also Imperial Stout?" Mattie became interested now, the proprietress doesn't care who pays, she just pours the wine when someone pays.

"Okay, it's also Imperial Stout."

Raymond's glass was also full, and the young man always had the illusion that the refill was fuller than the first one.

"Why did you invite me to drink this?" Raymond didn't drink it first like many alcoholics, he frowned: "I don't think I know you...or you don't know me, Mr. Bertrand."

"You know me... I know you too. You are the one from the north who entered the Earl's halberd camp." Bertrand made a gesture.

The meaning of the gesture is obvious, runaway slave.

Brittany knew that many serfs had become fugitive slaves and came to the south. King Richard of Knights had the intention to send someone to check the situation, but with the invasion of Chaos and the loss of 100,000 lives, the kingdom's attention was focused on resisting barbarian aggression. .

After Ryan killed Aegir and repelled the barbarians, the dukes in the north could only pinch their noses and eat the dumb ass, because the best time for the investigation had passed, and the civilians could not be investigated again after heavy casualties. Things become muddled accounts.

"So?" There was displeasure in Raymond's voice.

"I have seen your training, I have seen your courage, I don't know what supports you, but I want to toast you." Bertrand continued.

Now Raymond understood.

When he entered the halberd camp, he had experienced the most severe test.

These halberd recruits were instructed to put on armor, hold halberds, and form a formation. After they lined up, a dozen fully armed ranger knights charged these recruits off guard.

At that time, most of the recruits were so scared that they turned around and ran. There were only two people in the entire row standing at the end. One of them was Raymond. The knights pulled their horses and stopped when they were still two meters away from these recruits.

Relying on this, Raymond finally successfully turned positive.

"Well, thank you, Mr. Bertrand, and wish you good health." Raymond raised his glass.

"Congratulations!" Bertrand also raised his glass.

After a few sips of dark beer, the atmosphere gradually became hot. The lady boss brought some barbecued meat and snacks. It was so easy for the men to get acquainted with each other. Everyone talked loudly about which potential stocks have the opportunity to be promoted to knights, Earl Who do you like most.

After discussing for a while, the topic came to the story of the only five serfs who were promoted to nobles in the history of Brittany in a thousand years.

Everyone is most interested in this, most of the serfs don't count, but they can roughly know that the chance of being promoted to knights has increased a lot!

From five in a thousand years to three in a year, this is a qualitative leap!

"Bertrand, do you know the story of the five serfs? We only know the story of the Duchess Huameisi!" some alcoholics shouted loudly, drinking inferior barley wine, they kept asking Bertrand: " I know you are well-informed and literate, can you tell me? What did they rely on to be made a noble by His Majesty the King?"

"This, this is actually not a secret. Since you want to hear it, let me talk about it." Bertrand attaches great importance to literacy. After he surrendered to Ryan, he repeatedly asked Ryan to send someone to teach him how to read. After more than a year of hard work and a little foundation, Bertrand was considered a serf with a high level of education.

"Talk, talk, talk!" The alcoholics were so excited that they could hear stories without a bard, which was great.

"Who should I start with... Let's start with Hubbard." Bertrand held up the big wooden cup: "The first thing I want to say is Hubbard, because Hubbard's story is the simplest."

"Hubard is an ordinary serf, farming for generations, he has no strength, he is just lucky."

"As usual, one day he went into the forest to try his luck to see if he could get something to eat, and he happened to rescue a duke's daughter who was favored by a lady. The duke's daughter was besieged by beastmen and died. At the end of the day, Hubbard, relying on his experience, risked his life to save the duke's daughter, and took her out of the forest, because of his great merit, the king made him a knight."

"Oh, my God! This Mr. Hubbard is really a dog!" a serf complained: "How come I have no such good luck... Then, Bertrand, what happened to Hubbard after that?"

"Hubard's luck ends here. He died in battle on the fifty-second day of becoming a noble, and he failed to survive the first battle of his knighthood. This is most likely because his strength is too poor. "

"Hey hey~" The bar was full of schadenfreude laughter. The serfs were not master knights. They had not undergone solid military training, so they were hurriedly named knights and went to the battlefield hastily.

"What about the second one?"

"The second man is called Vier, from Leonasse, he is a bastard, a pious young man with intense emotions and hallucinations, he always claims that he sees the vision of a lady, and the people in the village are dubious when they hear it. , decided to let him be a caretaker in the Chapel of the Holy Grail in the village." Bertrand told the story of the second serf's promotion to the nobility: "One night, Vier was inspired by the lady, and he excitedly used the chapel to pile up of wood and debris collected from other places to build the first trebuchet in history... Yes, it is the counterweight trebuchet that our kingdom is now equipped with. When the northern barbarians went south to raid, Viye leaned on it. The trebuchets threw boulders and sank many of the barbarian dragon ships, forcing the barbarian shards to retreat."

"After the war, Vier was brought by the knights to the king, his designs were valued by the kingdom, and the king rewarded him with five goats, three big fat pigs and a cow, a bronze wreath and a Gold Krona's big iron plate... It is said that this is more than all the wealth that Vier could have imagined. His Highness the witch of the lake **** promoted him to a nobleman. Since then, Vier has been specially designed, repaired, manufactured and improved for the kingdom. The artisan of the trebuchet."

"Hey, this is the vision of seeing the lady, and being inspired by the lady, how can we ordinary people have such luck." The serfs complained again: "Mr. Bertrand, are you talking nonsense?"

"The joke is not nonsense, and the adaptation is not random. How can I talk nonsense? This is what I asked the knight, and they told me."

Well, another road was cut off.

"The third is Jacques, Baron Beaumarchais, of the Duchy of Winfort."

"Jacques is no longer an ordinary serf in the strict sense. His father was a senior sergeant and a baron's warden, and his mother was a famous seamstress, who was best at sewing exquisite clothes for the lord, so Jacques grew up since he was a child. Just eat well, grow tall, and have the opportunity to train with the knights."

"Jacques grew into a strong and handsome man under these circumstances, and became a shepherd at a young age."

"Wow, another lucky guy." The drinkers in the bar nodded one after another. Shepherds are not a lowly job. To become a shepherd, the serf must have a flock of sheep.

"This young shepherd was born with divine power and was famous for being a handsome man, so he was also favored by the baron's daughter, Lady Isabel, who was said to have planned how to marry him from that day on."

"The opportunity came. One day, Jacques went out to herd sheep and was attacked by a group of greenskins. As a result, the young shepherd not only did not escape, but took out his weapon, shouted the name of the lady, and killed the group of greenskins. A clean one."

"This incident alarmed the lady. The lady verbally praised Jacques. The serfs all regarded Jacques as a hero of the duchy. Miss Isabel took the opportunity to announce that she made an exception to grant Jacques the title of Ranger Knight~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The king also agreed."

The serfs sighed again, thinking who can kill a group of greenskins alone?

"The story is not over yet. Not long after, Isabel's father, the former Baron Beaumarchais, died in battle. Since Baron Beaumarchais's direct son was only a ranger knight, Ms. Isabelle released an experience task, who can slay the dragon and who can slay the dragon. become the new baron."

"Jacques set out with Aghavan, the baron's direct son, and the two climbed over the mountains to find the dragon's lair. After a hard fight, Aghavan cut the dragon's throat with his sword, and Jacques stabbed the sword into the dragon. heart."

"..." The serfs have nothing to say. If you want to become a master knight, you must not only be able to slaughter a group of greenskins, but also slaughter dragons?

"Jacques and Aghavan both admired each other's bravery. They both insisted that the other party was the dragon slayer. After the dispute, they returned to the territory and asked Miss Isabelle to decide who was the one who pierced the dragon's heart. On the grounds of Jacques, Jacques was declared the winner, and then Miss Isabelle married Jacques, and Jacques became the Baron of Beaumarchais."

Raymond was at a loss for words, and he felt that something was broken in his heart.

That thing is called a dream.

It is really difficult for a serf to become a master knight.

"And the last one? Bertrand?"

"Very good! It seems that you all understand your gaps." Bertrand took a swig of Imperial Stout and began to tell the last story.

"So, are you ready? I will tell you the most legendary story of the last serf who became a knight."

"That's Pawar's story."

"From serfs to Holy Grail Knights."
