Chapter 1050 Mermaid Elf

After successfully activating the "Seed of Life" and becoming a peak knight, Xiao Yun quickly restrained his aura. He didn't want to be exposed in a short period of time. After all, it was too eye-catching.

No matter where you are, if you show off your edge too much, you will be hated by others.

This is not the Holy Land of Chaos, but there are no "old seniors" who will protect him from growing up.

The world is relatively chaotic. Although Kenya is a unified kingdom, this Western kingdom is different from the ancient feudal dynasties of China. The feudal dynasties have strong centralization, while the Kingdom of Kenya is formed by countless nobles. The control over the country is not very large.

The Kenyan royal family is only one of the powerful nobles, elected as a royal family by many nobles, but it does not have strong control over other nobles. Many small nobles will fight each other to compete for the throne.

The great nobles would occasionally have wars, and each noble territory was almost independent of itself.

It is conceivable that once Xiao Yun's reputation as a genius spreads, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble.

He is not the invincible Xiao Tiandi now. Even if his strength is comparable to that of a great knight, he is still a mortal after all. He can fight one against a thousand, but facing an army of tens of thousands is still a dead end.

Keeping a low profile is the way to go.

Xiao Yun is not here to compete for hegemony. His purpose is to find 'extraordinary' power that exceeds the limits of ordinary people.

"Dong dong dong..."

Suddenly there was a rush of galloping horses outside the door. Xiao Yun stopped practicing and walked to the window. Through a gap, he saw a soldier in black armor riding a fierce horse. From a distance It rushed through the streets, and then disappeared in the direction leading to the castle.

"Black armored army?" Xiao Yun frowned.

Soldiers like this in black armor, dressed like Knight Instructor Milder, are the strongest army under Baron Lake - the Black Armored Army.

Milder is actually the commander of the Black Armored Army, but when there is no war, he usually acts as an instructor, training the trainee knights.

After all, only formal knights can serve as knight instructors, and there are only two formal knights, Baron Lake and Mild, in the entire territory. We cannot let the noble baron teach the trainee knights.

"Except for the hundred-man black-armored baron's personal guard in the castle, the other black-armored troops are guarding the 'border' of the territory. Unless something important happens, these black-armored troops will never retreat easily." Xiao Yun thought in his heart.

He felt that there might be a war on the 'border'.

This is normal, after all, his predecessor ‘Hill’ died of serious injuries due to this.

"I have to inform Xia to come back. It's best not to let her go out during this period." Xiao Yun thought for a moment, then opened the door and left.

…

castle.

A strong man with gray hair wearing silver armor was looking seriously at a silver bowl on the table.

There is a mermaid the size of a baby's hand in the silver bowl. It has a human head and hands, but the legs of its lower body are replaced by a fish tail. Its face is extremely beautiful, and it is simply a smaller version of the mermaid in fairy tales.

"This is the legendary mermaid elf. In order to get it, 125 people from my black-armored army died, and hundreds of people from other miscellaneous armies died." A majestic voice sounded, and the strong man in silver armor raised his head and looked at Mir next to him. De, although he has such a strong body, his face looks a little old.

He is none other than Baron Lake.

Mild was still wearing black armor, like a silent god of war, standing next to Baron Lake. His eyes also fell on the mermaid in the silver bowl, and he said lightly: "There are only more than a hundred black-armored soldiers. A group of untouchables can be exchanged for a formal knight, I think it’s worth it!”

"Hahaha!" Baron Lake laughed when he heard this. He looked back at the mermaid in the silver bowl and nodded: "When an elite trainee knight eats a mermaid elf, he can 100% stimulate the 'Seed of Life' and become a mermaid." A formal knight."

In the hearts of Baron Lake and Milder, the value of a formal knight far exceeds that of more than a hundred black-armored soldiers and hundreds of untouchables.

Although more than a hundred black-armored troops and hundreds of untouchables can definitely kill an official knight in a real fight, on the real battlefield, the breakthrough power and mobility of the official knight are the most terrifying.

As long as the official knights charge, tear apart the enemy's defense line, and the remaining troops follow closely, they can easily win.

What's more, formal knights are not fools and will fight you head-on. They are fast and can escape even if they can't be beaten. They can attack in secret, ambush, etc. They can kill hundreds of people, let alone a hundred people.

Therefore, nobles like to train knights, and the number of knights also represents the heritage of the noble.

"Lord Baron, who are you going to give this mermaid to?" Mild asked, looking at the mermaid in the silver bowl.

"Huh?" Baron Lake looked at Milder strangely when he heard this.

"Hasn't it been decided that it's Nord?"

Baron Lake looked at Milder and asked with some confusion: "Do you have other candidates?"

Although there are also elite trainee knights among the trainee knights and the Black Armored Army, in terms of talent, Nord is the highest, the most valuable to cultivate, and will have the best chance of being promoted to a peak knight in the future.

Of course, the most important thing is that Nord is not a commoner, but a down-and-out nobleman with noble blood flowing through him.

"There wasn't one before, but now there is one!" Milder looked at the baron in front of him and said in a deep voice: "It is your newly canonized trainee knight 'Hill'. It only took more than two months to become an elite trainee. The knight's talent far exceeds that of Nord, and he will definitely become a top knight in the future."

"Hill? That untouchable who was lucky enough to survive the battlefield?" Baron Lake was stunned and thought for a moment before he realized who this 'Hill' was.

Although Xiao Yun has shown great talent, he is a pariah after all, and Baron Lake has an innate dislike for it.

Baron Lake frowned and said: "His talent is indeed good. He will have the opportunity to be promoted to an official knight on his own in the future. There is no need to waste this mermaid. What's more..."

After that, Baron Lake took a deep look at Milder and said in a deep voice: "Strength is important, but we need a loyal official knight more. How long will it take for Hill to join us? Once he gains strong strength , How loyal do you think he is to us? Maybe other nobles can win him away from us by paying some price."

"As for Nord, he not only has noble blood, but he also grew up watching us. What's more, he is already engaged to my daughter Chris. After he is promoted to an official knight, I will hold a grand ceremony for them. Wedding, such a knight is worthy of our focus on cultivation. "

Regarding Baron Lake's words, Milder sighed in disbelief.

Indeed, in terms of blood, kinship, and loyalty to the Baron, Nord is more suitable than Hill.

If Milder were Baron Lake, he would make the same choice.

After all, instead of cultivating your own future son-in-law, why should you cultivate an outsider with little loyalty? What a fool!

Mild just felt pity for Xiao Yun's powerful talent and mentioned it casually.

"Call Nord over!" Baron Lake had just finished speaking when a loud shout came from outside.

"Report——"

A soldier from the Black Armored Army hurriedly rushed in, holding a bloody flag in his hand.
