Warhammer Wizard

Chapter 148: Curse of Glamorgan

"Earl of Glamorgan? Still sealed!"

Ryan was also a little lost when he heard the title canonization.

At the beginning of the establishment of the empire, each title had a corresponding territory, and the official name of the nobility would add the fief in front of the title.

For example, Viola's Earl of Winter Ting, "Winter Ting" refers to her territory, and the Earl is her noble rank. Since the demise of the royal family more than a thousand years ago and the Supreme Council of Cermetis came to power, the aristocratic system has gradually changed, and many emptiness have appeared.

Void aristocrats have no territory, they are only titles that symbolize status and status, and their address is relatively simple.

Pollock, who was just canonized today, just said that when the Duke of Silver Star gave him the title of baron, he only said that he was conferred the title of baron, and there was no domain name. And the Earl of Glamorgan obviously has territory!

From the name point of view, this territory is called Glamorgan, and it is an earl's territory, and its area is certainly not small.

The real earl of the empire usually automatically obtains the seat of the imperial councillor and enters the imperial assembly.

Oriense Imperial Council!

This is the power center of the empire. There are less than 300 congressmen in total, each of whom is famous or extraordinary. "Glamorgan..."

Ren's thoughts turned sharply. In his memory, there were only three earl titles in the Duke of Longsand, and the earl of Winterbright was one of them, and there was no Glamorgan.

"This name is a bit impressive. Where did I see it?"

Ren lowered his head, wondering if he should accept it.

Judging from the reactions of the guests watching the ceremony, this title is definitely not easy. The Duke of Silver Star suddenly gave this gift, which is probably not a good thing.

Ren was not stunned by the pie falling from the sky.

He secretly opened the mobile phone library, and was about to search for the origin of Glamorgan, a burst of force came from his shoulder.

From the corner of his eye, I saw that the staff placed on the shoulder of the Silver Star Duke was gently pressing down.

"Ok?"

The Duke of Silver Star let out a low snort, seemingly dissatisfied.

Renne, who was crumbly on one knee, felt the heavy pressure. This pressure did not come from magic or the power of the staff, let alone the influence of the soul, but a kind of power deterrence of the superior.

In just two or three seconds, there is no room for Renne to make a choice.

The eyes of everyone in the entire auditorium fell on him, waiting for his response.

Rene felt helpless and could only read the oath aloud as in the previous exercise: "I, Rene Augustus, I am willing to dedicate my loyalty to the lady, my life to the empire, and my faith to the goddess."

Snapped! Snapped!

The staff tapped on each side of the shoulder, indicating that the knighthood was completed.

Immediately, the Duke of Silver Star took out a new dress, canonized parchment paper, and a family crest.

The style of the badge is the same as the surname, which was submitted to the city hall by Rennes before.

The half palm-sized badge is made of gold and is roughly round. The red base is surrounded by wheat ears on both sides. In the middle is the symbol of the cross of a warhammer and a crescent moon, which looks simple and powerful.

A few days ago, when Rennes handed the family crest of his own design to Darlene, he took a few glances and asked a little strangely, why does the crescent moon on the badge have a handle?

Renn did not answer, but smiled meaningfully.

He took the dress, parchment paper and badge, and there was a wave of exclamation and a wave of applause in the auditorium.

When he got up, he saw the corners of Silver Star Duke's mouth rising slightly, revealing an unimaginable smile.

Not only the Duke of Silver Star, Rehn noticed that some of the nobles sitting in the front row also had strange faces. They looked at him with shock, sympathy, and doubt. The color of their souls was changing back and forth, and their emotions were very complicated. Obviously they know the inside story.

Those who don't know the inside story are either extremely envious or very excited.

Father Bud was already speechless with excitement at this moment, his face flushed, and his whole body was shaking with excitement.

Ren returned to the seat and looked at Viola next to her. She shook her head slightly, indicating that it was not time to explain.

At this time, Mayor Yalas announced the end of the knighthood ceremony, and everyone in the audience got up and sent the Duke of Silver Star and several legendary wizards away.

The guests attending the ceremony are also leaving in an orderly manner.

Several new nobles who were knighted are still immersed in joy, communicating with people around them, and accepting everyone's congratulations.

As the two protagonists today, Renn and Viola simply greeted their acquaintances and left in a hurry.

Outside the auditorium, Rehn asked his family to ride home in a carriage while he followed Viola.

There is no need to let them know the inside story of the knighthood.

As soon as Wren got into Viola's car, she told the driver: "Go to the Wizard Tower now."

"Shall we see the Duke?" Wren asked, searching for information about Glamorgan in the mobile library.

Not much content was searched, but he learned the most critical information.

The territory of the Earl of Glamorgan is in Modu!

Moreover, the territory is not in the wilderness near Modu, but in and outside Modu city.

The area of ​​this territory is not very large, much smaller than the normal Earl’s collar, exactly about a thousand square miles, but it encompasses a large coastal area in the east of Modu, accounting for nearly a quarter of the entire city. !

Renn has never been to Modu, but there is a map in the mobile library.

The world's most prosperous trading capital was established on the south bank of the estuary of the empire's longest river "Nachum". Between the river and Paradise Bay, a large plain of thousands of square kilometers was formed.

The plain is an irregular triangle with sharp corners facing east, and the Earl of Glamorgan is at the end of this sharp corner!

In the city of Modu, a tributary of the Nakumer River winds past, called the Yero River.

The city was built along both banks of the river. Most of the city and residents are located on the west bank of the Yero River, and from the east bank to the coast, almost all belong to the Count of Glamorgan.

Although it is not the most densely populated area, this territory is still extremely important to Modu, because two of the three major ports are within the territory, and there are hundreds of factories and manors built over the years, which are equivalent to the previous earth. New industrial zone on the road!

The value of the Glamorgan collar is simply incalculable.

"Fuck!"

Ren couldn't help shouting in his heart, what's the situation?

He didn't wait for Viola to respond, and asked continuously: "How come your Excellency has an earl in Morocco? Does she have the right to seal it to me?"

"Yes." Viola looked worried and nodded: "This is legal."

"What's the matter?" Renn was even more puzzled.

The twelve holy soul wizards of the empire were all officially dukes, and they could appoint an area not larger than the province as their territory.

The personnel, legions, and taxes in the territory are all managed by the duke, just like a duchy.

The Duke only needs to pay taxes to the Empire every year.

But not every holy soul wizard likes to be a high lord. Some of them voluntarily gave up the title of duke and only delineated a small territory for the establishment of wizard towers or floating cities.

There was even one who didn't even want the Wizard Tower, living in seclusion in an unknown place.

For these holy soul wizards, people are generally called masters, not dukes.

The lord of Wezeland Floating City, Master Anse Verdaus is like this.

This holy soul wizard has no territory, only a floating city. Therefore, Wezeland floating city is located above Modu, but he is not the lord of Modu. In fact, his floating city was not built by himself, but gradually grew up from a wizard apprentice, promoted to the holy soul, and became the leader of the floating city.

Even so, it shouldn't be Silver Star Duke's turn to intervene in Modu and canonize an earl.

Because obviously, Mo is the sphere of influence of Master Anse Verdaus.

"Master Anse Vodaus rarely intervenes in Modu affairs." Viola said: "Rene, Modu is different from our Longshande. Its history can be traced back to the establishment of the empire. And the surrounding area was divided into multiple territories and canonized to a dozen nobles."

"After so many years, Mordu City is still in the hands of these old nobles."

"They are the richest aristocratic class in the empire, and they jointly funded the establishment of the Wezeland Floating City. There are also very powerful transcendents in the family, and they have a very complicated relationship with the floating city."

"The former Earl of Glamorgan, the Dukagan family, was one of these nobles."

Ren heard the overtones, "Before?"

"Yes, probably eighty years ago."

Viola thought for a while, and replied: "The fighting among the nobles of Modu is also fierce. At first, there were more than a dozen great nobles, all of which had real estates, but now only seven are left."

"More than eighty years ago, a legendary wizard to whom the Dukagen family depended suddenly died, and the family was also destroyed. Only the Earl of Glamorgan himself escaped with serious injuries."

"The Lord Earl fled to Longshande, and for some unknown reason, he pledged allegiance to the Lord Duke before he died."

"The Duke agreed immediately."

"According to the laws of the Empire, the Earl of Glamorgan became a subordinate vassal of the Duke. The Duke has the right to appoint a new earl without direct descendants."

When Ren heard this, he couldn't help but doubt it.

The Duke of Silver Star has been collecting wealth to build a floating city for many years. Faced with such a large interest from Glamorgan, it would be strange if he disagrees.

A holy soul wizard, wanting others to swear allegiance is not too easy.

Even behind this incident, there may be black hands of the Duke of Silver Star.

"What happened later?" Renne asked.

Viola replied: "Your Excellency the Duke canonized the new Earl of Glamorgan and wants to take over the territory of Modu, but it is not going well."

Ren shook his head, needless to say, this must have met with strong resistance from the local nobles of Modu.

"The new earl canonized by the Duke, he died within half a year after he arrived in Morocco." Viola said with a heavy face: "Of course, the Duke will not give up so easily. He will continue his canonization. He also sent the Secret Fire Guard to protect the earl. Security ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In the following twenty years, a total of seven Earls of Glamorgan have been canonized."

"The last of these seven earls is a legendary wizard. He spent the longest time in Modu, over ten years, and was assassinated in his own territory. Although he did not die as a result, he was seriously injured and voluntarily gave up the earl. Title, leave Modu."

Ren was taken aback.

Even the legendary wizard can't hold it, and with the support of the Silver Star Duke, they are not spared. It can be seen how dark the Mordu nobles are, and for the benefit, even the Holy Soul wizard does not give face.

Almost certainly, Wezeland Floating City also intervened.

Viola continued: "After the legendary wizard came back, the Duke never canonized the new Earl of Glamorgan."

"As far as I know, it was Master Anse Verdaus who came forward and discussed with the Duke himself."

"Both parties backed down, and the Duke will no longer canonize the new Earl of Gramoge. As a bargain, the nobles of Modu will offer a golden shield to the Duke every year. I don't know how much it is."

Renn slowly nodded, and finally understood why those guests sympathized with him.

It is possible that Duke Silver Star is short of money now.

So he canonized himself as the Earl of Glamorgan, renewed the conflict with the Mordu nobles, and wanted to blackmail more money.

Unfortunately, he became the chess piece in the hands of the Duke of Silver Star.

Viola obviously thought the same way, frowning. She held Ren's hand and asked: "The Duke will definitely let you go to Modo. What should you do?" Ren looked out of the car window and did not answer. .

The car entered the Silver Star Academy and stopped under the Wizard Tower. As soon as the two got out of the car, a wizard came up and said, "Earl Winter Light, Earl Glamorgan, please come with me."
