Chapter 1017 Help you once, let you stand in the sun

The next morning, Locke brought half of the castle's knights and accompanied Weilin to visit the Abner territory.

At the city gate, Weilin looked at the horse prepared by Locke, stroked its mane, calmed its restless mood, and then climbed on the horse.

"Sir Weilin, how about we make our first stop the town of Dedaji in the north?"

Hearing Locke's question, Weilin responded: "You are the host, and I am the one who came to visit without any hesitation. You make the decision."

Seeing this, Locke said something politely, then commanded more than 30 knights to mount their horses and take Weilin to the northern border town of Dedaji in the Abner territory.

The town of Dedaji is located near the junction of Viscount Abner and Viscount Sanglilan. It has more than 20 villages and manors under its jurisdiction, with a total population of more than 10,000 people.

Arriving at the edge of the town, Weilinlema stopped and suggested, "Locke, we can't see anything if we enter the town with such a large group of people. Why don't we let them wait here and walk alone?"

"Sir Weilin, it's up to you." Locke responded with a smile, then waved to the knights behind him and asked them to wait here.

Upon hearing this, more than thirty knights all bowed their heads and saluted. No one said anything of advice, not even Locke's confidant.

They know exactly what kind of character they are loyal to.

The lord hates anyone who dares to disobey his orders, and even if the orders he issues are wrong, he will not allow any dissenting voices.

However, although the lord was arbitrary, the rewards he gave them were very generous. He was not greedy for enjoyment, so all the things he got, except for the ones for entertaining guests, were exchanged for gold coins and extraordinary resources.

Walking on the muddy road, Weilin secretly observed Locke's expression and found that this guy still looked normal. He communicated with him very naturally and ignored the mud stains on his clothes.

"Watch and observe again."

Once you enter the town, the environment is not clean, but not too bad either. At least there is no residue of human or animal feces.

"Hurry up, there is a meeting tonight."

Hearing the civilians whispering in the distance, Weilin's face remained calm. He turned his head to look at Locke, said nothing, and continued walking forward.

He now seemed to understand why Locke had invited them to come to the Abner Territory and why he had chosen the town of Dedaji as the first stop.

However, he was still a little curious about why Locke found him at the party.

Having noted this important information, Weilin prepared to see if this guy would guide him to check out the gathering at night.

Locke, who was one step behind, felt Weilin's gaze, but his expression did not change at all, as if he knew nothing, and continued to walk forward as if nothing had happened.

The town is not big, and I walked through the main streets in less than half an hour.

"Let's go to the next town."

Hearing this, Locke smiled and replied, "Sir Weilin, I have the same idea."

Hearing this, Weilin felt somewhat confused, but pretended to be bored on the surface. He and Locke left Dedaji Town, met up with the guards, and headed to the next town.

While we were having fun, time passed quietly and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed.

The territory of Abner is not large, but it is close to the sea and has many beautiful places that make Weilin linger.

……

On January 9770, 1 of the Glorious Calendar, Weilin sat by the sea, looking at the bright moon in the sky, and said with some emotion: "It's been another year since I came out. I wonder how Xuemiya is doing."

Locke, who was sitting next to him, was stunned when he heard this. Then he reacted, lowered his head slightly, and began to think.

After spending half a month together, Locke found that he had some understanding of Weilin.

This young Soul Knight was not a returnee as he claimed, but a person from another country, or even a great lord with a very high status and great power.

Some things you can only feel after being exposed to them for a long time.

When one first gains power, he or she will learn the standard etiquette and show authority to his or her subordinates to demonstrate his or her status.

When he first took over the title of Viscount Abner, he also had a period of inflated mentality, but it only took him half a month to kill himself.

"The great lord of another country has close contact with the princess. It seems that the water is deep!"

After feeling some inner emotion, Locke looked up and admired the waning moon.

"Locke, how about we open up and talk?"

Locke showed a rare look of surprise on his face, but he quickly restrained it, turned to look at Weilin, and said, "Sir Weilin, what do you mean by this?"

"Locke, you are a smart man, but playing dumb is not an option right now."

As soon as he finished speaking, the knights standing guard around fell down one after another.

Hearing the sound of armor colliding with stones, Locke's face became a little stiff.

"We have been observing each other for half a month. You know some of my background, and I also know some of your personality and information." Weilin turned his head to look at Locke and said in a deep voice, "I don't know how you found me at the party. I was a little curious before, but now I don't want to know."

Having said that, Verin stretched out his hand and summoned the Knight of Life and the Knight of Death.

Looking at the two knights, one black and one white, appearing on the sea level, Locke once again felt the approach of death.

"I don't like your way of doing things, but if I were in your shoes, I would choose to do the same."

"As for you as a person, apart from your hypocritical side, I still like you quite a lot."

"So, I'm going to help you this time, to help you stand in the sun."

"Mr. Crest, he is the young man sitting next to me at the banquet. He is a member of the Legendary Council of the Magic Kingdom of Cavan."

When Locke heard the information, his calm heart began to waver, his mind was in a mess, and a look of horror appeared on his face.

"Hahaha, don't be nervous. Lord Crest is usually very kind and doesn't care about respect and etiquette. Don't be afraid that he will retaliate against you."

Looking at Locke who couldn't help trembling, Weilin waved his hand and injected a ball of green energy into his body to calm his somewhat unbalanced emotions.

Wrapped in the warmth, Locke gradually calmed down his fear. He stood up, saluted Weilin, and said respectfully, "My lord, what do you want to know?"

Weilin waved his hand and said in a gentle tone: "Hahaha, you should call me Lord Weilin. I quite like this title. But when it is added with honorifics, I don't like it very much."

"Yes, Lord Weilin." Locke replied respectfully.

Weilin pointed at the stone pillar and said with a smile, "Sit down."

Seeing this, Locke sat down obediently, not looking as confident as before.

Being able to become friends with a legend means that such a person is destined to be extraordinary, and no amount of respect is too much.
