From Baron to Lord

A slightly magnetic voice sounded, and soon, Allen saw a casually dressed young man appear before him.

“Your Majesty!”

His appearance caused Grand Duke Ryan and Grand Duke Jenos to bow and salute.

“Allen 830?”

This somewhat young king looked at Allen with interest.

“It’s incredible. Although I already know your real age, I still can't help but be shocked after seeing you.”

The young king looked at Allen with a smile, his tone very gentle.

“Allen, you are the most talented person I have ever met, without a doubt. I studied in the Empire and have seen those so-called geniuses, but they are far inferior to you. I don’t know if there is anyone else in this world who became a Dragon Knight before the age of seventeen.”

“But I can say for sure that on the continent, absolutely no one has ridden a dragon at the age of seventeen based on their own ability. So you are not only the genius of the kingdom, but also a top genius on the entire continent.” The young king revealed a set of white teeth and extended his right hand to Allen.

“Welcome, young Dragon Knight. I am Leike Fickrell, the King of Norton Kingdom. I hope to be friends with you.” The new king of the Norton Kingdom, who once orchestrated the kingdom's internal strife, now extended his goodwill to Allen.

This made Grand Duke Ryan and Grand Duke Jenos widen their eyes directly.

Their king didn't want Allen to be his subordinate, but to be his friend?!

What the hell is going on?!

Chapter 259: The New King's Goodwill, Solicitation and Investment (4 Seeking Subscription!)

Allen was slightly stunned. He looked at the young King of the Norton Kingdom in front of him. He knew that this king was older than he looked.

After the Sanctuary realm, the qualitatively changed Dou Qi will sublimate and transform the knight's body.

Just like breaking through from a Silver Knight to a Gold Knight, Dou Qi stimulates the body to undergo a second rejuvenation.

So Gold Knights can live to be about one hundred and fifty years old.

And the changes in the Sanctuary realm are extremely large, breaking the limits of ordinary human bodies and equivalent to re-transforming the body.

Sanctuary experts generally have a lifespan of about three hundred to five hundred years.

This can make knights look much younger, like twenty or thirty years old when they are fifty or sixty.

Of course, this is a normal lifespan. Generally speaking, there are too few Dragon Knights who can live to be three to five hundred years old.

As mentioned before, the continent is never short of wars, even national wars.

Think about Allen's current situation, he has experienced two national wars within a year.

And each time, Dragon Knights have fallen.

Of course, most of the time, Dragon Knights may not necessarily fall, but there will definitely be one side, or even both sides, that are seriously injured.

Each serious injury is an indelible damage to the Dragon Knight, which will more or less affect their body.

Just like Earl Steel Fist, who was in his prime, but died early because he had suffered too many injuries in his youth, affecting the traces.

Dragon Knights are also like this, just like the old King of Norton Kingdom, who passed away at only over one hundred and fifty years old.

But this is already good.

Leike Fickrell in front of him, this young king seems to be less than thirty years old, but his actual age should be fifty or sixty.

At this age, his experience is enough to make him an old schemer. “Um, Your Majesty, what is this?”

Allen was a little flattered.

How did he become his friend?

“Don’t worry, Allen, your talent and potential are the only ones I have ever seen. I have to praise the God of War for giving you to our Norton Kingdom. This is the honor of our Norton Kingdom.”

Leike Fickrell showed a smile. He has deep green eyes, light golden hair, a slender figure, a handsome face, a mature temperament, and elegant demeanor. He is a standard aristocrat. Allen looked at the grand duke next to him who was completely stunned, and then touched his nose: “This… isn’t it too inappropriate, Your Majesty. r.” Is Leike Fickrell trying to kill him with praise?

Allen couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

“Hahaha, it’s not inappropriate, but very appropriate.”

Leike Fickrell laughed twice, and he pointed to the high platform not far away: “Go up and sit down?” Allen nodded.

Leike Fickrell led the three of them up to the high platform.

After going up, Allen realized the difference here.

There were as many as twenty Gold Knights, openly and secretly, in the entire garden, and three advanced mages were secretly guarding it.

The entire garden was also surrounded by a huge magic circle.

The defense can be described as perverted.

And Leike Fickrell's personal knight was actually a Sanctuary knight.

I don't know if he is a Dragon Knight.

Allen glanced at the big man beside Leike Fickrell, and then secretly marveled at the terrifying defense within the royal palace of the kingdom.

Compared to the kingdom, the duchy is simply shit.

Having a few Gold Knights secretly is already an extremely extravagant thing, as for mages, there may not even be intermediate mages. “Okay, you guys sit down.”

Leike Fickrell sat casually on a sofa, patted the seat next to him, and said to Allen, “Allen, you sit here.” Allen didn't hesitate and walked over to sit down.

As for Grand Duke Ryan and Grand Duke Jenos, they sat a little further away.

Below the high platform were dancing girls, all of whom were top-notch beauties, pleasing to the eye. “Allen, do you think my attitude towards you is too good?” Leike Fickrell smiled faintly and handed Allen a glass of red wine.

After Allen took it, he nodded: “Yes, it’s completely different from what I imagined.” “Because you are special.”

Leike Fickrell said with a smile: “Allen, do you know why Dragon Knights are so rare?” Allen was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then frowned: “Because dragons are rare.” “That’s right, humans have never lacked Sanctuary Knights, but what they lack are dragons.”

Lakevke Lair took a meaningful look at Allen: "Perhaps you won't understand how great and glorious the birth of a Dragon Knight is."

"The sudden demise of the ancient magical civilization caused countless magical species to withdraw from the stage of the continent overnight, including dragons."

"The Norton Kingdom possesses thirteen dragons, including one elderly dragon."

"This is accumulated by the Norton Kingdom over countless years, because of the pride of the dragons, they would rather die than surrender."

"This means that if you want to obtain a dragon, you must gain the approval of a newborn dragon."

"This is very, very difficult."

"In the current Norton Kingdom, no new dragons have joined for two hundred years. All the Grand Dukes and Dragon Knights you see, their dragons are provided by the Norton Kingdom."

Lakevke Lair sighed slightly: "Two hundred years... a long time... and you are the first in two hundred years, the first Dragon Knight to gain the approval of a newborn dragon."

"And what shocked me is that you are only seventeen years old, and at the same time, you are also a Saint-level Magister."

"Do you know what this means?"

Lakevke Lair looked at Allen with burning eyes.

Allen was slightly startled, but he didn't interrupt the new king's words.

Lakevke Lair took a sip of red wine: "This means that you have the potential to become a Holy Dragon Knight!"

"Even, it's not impossible to touch the threshold of the Legendary realm."

Lakevke Lair said with a smile: "Your talent is no less than some of the most famous geniuses in the Empire that I met during my studies in the Empire, so Allen, you don't need to think that my attitude towards you is a conspiracy."

"I can tell you frankly that this is a blatant scheme. To be able to advance all the way from an unknown country baronet to become a Grand Duke, to achieve sainthood in both martial arts and magic, to ride dragons, and to dominate the world."

"Your talent is shocking, and similarly, there are also huge secrets behind you."

"The fact that you can get to where you are today without the support of anyone is enough to show your ability. To be honest, I was very tempted at first, and even wanted to explore your secrets, but in the end, I decided to win you over."

"Rather than risk offending a future Holy Dragon Knight, or even a Legendary powerhouse, I might as well win you over now! Gain your favor, and perhaps one day, the Norton Kingdom will become more prosperous because of you, and I will only have paid an insignificant price."

"What do you think of my actions?"

Lakevke Lair's words surprised Allen slightly, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it made a lot of sense.

That's right, his growth rate was too fast, and a careful investigation by someone with ulterior motives would be enough to discover his differences.

Before, it was because of the national war and internal strife. When Allen rose, it happened to be at this critical moment, and the big figures focused their attention elsewhere, but ignored him.

Now Allen has grown up, just as this young king said.

Now Allen has enough strength. Rather than risk offending Allen and exploring Allen's secrets, it's better to win him over and invest in him.

Perhaps there will be unexpected huge gains in the future?

Chapter 260: Enfeoffment as Grand Duke! (5)

"Does Allen have the qualifications to become a Holy Dragon Knight?"

Grand Duke Ryan and Grand Duke Genos looked at each other, and both saw the shock and... a hint of agreement in each other's eyes.

They had to agree, because Allen was too young, too monstrous.

This guy is not only a Saint-level Knight, but also a Saint-level Magister.

What a joke, this guy is only a seventeen-year-old teenager.

Even if he started cultivating in his mother's womb, it would be impossible for him to achieve this, right?

But the reality is that Allen has done it.

In this world where strength is respected, Allen has already gained the respect of the new king and a certain amount of say with his own strength.

The new king Lakevke Lair saw the hope of rising in Allen, and investing in Allen was also a choice.

As an old schemer who can use the entire kingdom, including the affiliated duchies, as chess pieces to play a big game, he certainly has long-term vision and trade-offs.

Indeed, Allen has huge secrets, and this secret makes Lakevke Lair also tempted, but so what?

A great king never considers temporary gains and losses, but long-term interests.

Not to mention that Allen's value is far more than that.

Aside from Allen's talent in martial arts, this guy is also an excellent lord with extremely excellent military talent.

It can be seen from his resume that this guy participated in the national war twice, and he performed extremely well each time. Even before the second national war, he had already discovered a situation that most people could not discover, that is, the betrayal of Grand Duke Shack.

Even Lakevke Lair was shocked by this!

In addition, Allen has excellent leadership skills, and his almost invincible record makes Lakevke Lair ashamed.

In addition to military talent, this guy can transform into a resourceful businessman.

He seems to have countless creativity, and can create a lucrative industry at will.

Every time, the new king is shocked. Whether it is wine, perfume, maltose, or food, any invention can be called perfect and heaven-defying.

Such a person, even the new king of the kingdom has to be tempted. There is really no other choice but to win over this kind of talent.

In short, Allen, this young nobleman, is a first-class talent in every aspect.

Allen has also digested almost all of the words of the young king who was talking and laughing with him.

So that's it, so it's a blatant scheme?

Allen smiled slightly: "You are worthy of being the Lord of the Kingdom. To be honest, even I have to admire your consideration."

"Hahaha!"
