Knight Lord: Start with Daily Intelligence
#13 - Obtain the family secret treasure
Seeing Count Suna's shocked reaction, Connor was certain that this change was beyond the Count's expectations and not an arrangement he had secretly made.
Therefore, he explained in more detail, "As the information stated, at noon, Young Master Su Li only had two useless women besides the guardian knight you arranged. But by the afternoon, both women had awakened their bloodlines. Perhaps the breakthrough of two ordinary trainee knights is insignificant to you, my lord, but these two trainee knights are different, and I think you should pay attention to them."
"As far as I know, one of them, named Hilde, is still new to training. That is... the woman who is relaxing with Young Master Su Li."
"First time training?" Count Suna was even more shocked. "And she awakened her bloodline within a few hours? Her talent is enough to put her at the top of the Gryphon Military Academy of the Modenheim Empire!"
Modenheim City is the capital of the southernmost province of the Empire, and the dean of the Modenheim Gryphon Military Academy is also one of the Empire's twelve elector counts. This is the most authoritative higher knight academy in the Empire, and all Imperial knights are proud to enter it. Any knight who graduates from this military academy will be hired by dukes and counts at a high price to serve as the head of a knight order or a military instructor.
Among the many family members in Thistle Castle, no one has ever been admitted to this academy based on true talent.
Hearing the Count's evaluation, Connor was even more shocked and asked, "My lord, isn't this a bit of an exaggeration? Although her bloodline awakened quickly, she is not young to awaken as a transcendent at this age."
"No, no," Count Suna shook his head and looked out the window, saying, "If she has never been exposed to any training before and mastered the breathing technique in just two hours, then her future is limitless. Her upper limit depends on only one factor."
"What is it?" Connor asked curiously.
"Opportunity," Count Suna said with a serious face. "If she has sufficient opportunities, she will definitely be able to reach the level of a Chosen Knight. And if someone helps her, a legendary knight is not impossible."
"Legendary Knight?" Connor's eyes widened, and he took a deep breath. This was the pinnacle of combat power that the human empire could reach.
Every legendary knight has left an immortal chapter in the history of the Empire, and their deeds are sung by all the bards throughout every town and tavern in the Empire.
If an elite knight is like the light of a firefly, then a legendary knight is like the bright moon in the night sky!
Connor couldn't even imagine that his ordinary life would be related to a legendary knight.
As for the Saint Realm Knights above the legendary knights, they were already close to myths and legends. It is said that every Saint Realm Knight has a lifespan of thousands of years.
Logically speaking, with such a long lifespan, the number of Saint Realm Knights within the Empire should be considerable, but the last time the achievements of a Saint Realm Knight were circulated was seven years ago during the Battle of the Vis River.
At that time, the Beast King of the Beastmen launched a massive invasion of the Empire, and the Beastmen army burned, killed, and looted all the way, turning thousands of miles of territory into a ghost realm.
The allied forces of three human dukes fought a bloody battle with the Beastmen on the banks of the Vis River, but at the beginning of the battle, the human allied forces encountered great difficulties. A large number of Beastmen, with pre-ambushed minotaurs as vanguards, attacked the rear of the allied forces. The hastily gathered serf troops were frightened before the knight lords could return from the front and fled in all directions.
Without the cover of the auxiliary corps, the knight lords, in order to avoid disaster, were attacked from all sides and could only try to retreat in an orderly manner.
But the Beastmen army, which had gained the upper hand, surged like a tide, completely preventing the human knights from reorganizing their formations.
At this critical moment, the human Saint Realm Knight Tristan arrived with a team of Imperial heroes and launched a sudden counterattack. Their sharp blades crushed a large number of ferocious Beastmen, and they were invincible, directly killing the Beast King who commanded the army, thus reversing the battlefield situation.
It can be said that every Saint Realm Knight has the individual power to determine the course of a war.
So, a legendary knight is basically the ultimate that ordinary humans can reach.
Connor stuttered in shock and asked, "Then... then... I... I mean, we, Young Master Su Li, he... might have slept with a future legendary knight?"
Count Suna shook his head slightly and said, "All of this is just a possibility. But it is clear that Su Li has the possibility of creating miracles. He has really given me a big surprise. Moreover, an elite knight and two formal knights have sworn allegiance to him. Connor, if it were you, would you follow a trainee knight?"
If this question had been asked before, Connor would not have thought about it for even a second. Asking this question itself would be an insult to him.
But now, Connor had to think seriously about it.
Connor's attitude obviously further prompted Count Suna to make up his mind. He pondered slightly, then looked up at Connor and said, "Go to the bottom floor of the armory yourself, to room number three, no, go to room number two, and send the box on the second shelf to Su Li."
Connor instantly held his breath. The box in room number two on the bottom floor of the armory?
That was the family's most important foundation and pillar of strength.
It seems that he really needed to have a serious talk with his second son and let him join Young Master Su Li's pioneering team.
The Count had entrusted such an important item to Young Master Su Li, which was clearly a heavy bet.
He immediately bowed respectfully and said, "According to your will, my lord. I will arrange it personally."
The noble court has always been a sieve. Court secrets can spread throughout the castle overnight. Soon, the various knight families learned of this news. Coupled with Su Li's performance today and that controversial high-stakes gamble, overnight all the knights under Thistle Castle focused their attention on Su Li.
Ambitionists, opportunists, and knights with a sense of adventure secretly began to pay attention to Su Li's next actions. Some had even begun to prepare to contact this trainee knight at the center of attention.
But obviously, as the focus of attention, Su Li was completely unaware of all this. He diligently helped Hilde with round after round of knight training, and it wasn't until the second half of the night that he contentedly stroked Hilde's soft and full fruits and fell asleep in a happy mood.
