Chapter 454 The first year task
On the day he arrived in Princeton, Locke arranged for Rafi to go to the market to recruit some slaves and servants. The entire courtyard of Shansher Street was extremely empty, and all the slaves had been dismissed before leaving last time.
I am used to being served by others and I am not very comfortable without two servants to serve me.
Locke went to the branch of the Knights' Hall in the north of the city to report. Half a day after entering Princeton, Locke felt more than a dozen gazes peeking at him, and several of them were even monitoring him until now.
Needless to say, he must be a strong man from the Omor Empire. No matter where a first-level knight goes, he is the focus of the crowd.
Locke judged the people who monitored themselves through the Knight's fighting intuition that most of them were as strong as themselves, two were far superior to them, and several were slightly weaker than themselves.
It can be seen from this that Locke is probably in the middle of the first-level knights, but considering that Locke's breakthrough is still short, after he completely consolidates himself, I believe there will be a big step.
Constantine Avenue in the northeastern city has not come back for several years, and everything has changed a little. Fortunately, there are no special changes in the overall situation, so Locke will not be lost.
When approaching the 100-meter range of the gate of the Knights Hall, several waves of detection and inspection were swept over, and Locke looked serious and walked towards the gate without hesitation.
"Locke, are you Locke?" A scream came from a member of the Knights' Temple at the gate.
Locke turned his head and looked, "Sis, is it you?" This was the only friend of the Knights' Temple he knew in the Omor Empire.
"It's really you! My God, you have been promoted to a formal knight!" Sith said excitedly incoherently, and another colleague who was on duty outside the gate of the Knight Hall was a little confused.
"I'll talk later, I'll have something to do." Locke smiled and pointed at the surroundings and said.
Sith suddenly realized that some high-level knight attendants from the Knight Hall were attracted by his screams and strongly "watched" the official knight Locke.
Usually, formal knights are hard characters who are not visible and not leaking. Even in the Knight Palace branch, they rarely see them. Different levels of life are different, and these lower-level knights have no chance to have anything to do with such strong people.
In addition, more explorations came, and Locke was fine, while Sith shrank his head. There was no doubt that the person who made him so cautious and scared was definitely a formal knight-level existence.
Nodding at the Sith, Locke strode into the branch of the Knights' Hall, among which there was a knight who looked like a waiter, waiting.
"Knight Locke, please come with me." said the attendant knight respectfully. This is a handsome and extraordinary quasi-knight.
Judging from the excellent equipment on his body, it is far more than the number of people such as the Sith who are guarding the door outside. Most of them are elite knights in the Knights' Palace.
After a long journey, Locke came to an area that had never been involved in the Knights' Hall branch.
On the second floor of a quiet villa, Locke was led to an office door, and the attendant Knight left quietly.
Locke knocked on the door and waited, giving him a sense of the existence of some violent beasts that could threaten his life.
"Please come in!" A middle-aged male voice with unquestionable majesty came.
Locke entered, in a room covering an area of 60 to 70 square meters, a middle-aged knight sat in front of a quaint desk.
The moment he saw this knight, Locke's pupils shrank, the ground knight!
Moreover, he is a level strongman among the Earth Knights, at least not the Roma Knight of Fostertan or the Knight Garcia who had met several times, never gave him such a sense of oppression and suffocation.
If such a strong man wanted to attack Locke, he would probably not even have room for resistance and would be killed instantly.
How could there be such a monster in the Knights Palace?
Seeing Locke standing in the room, his body stiffened and without saying a word, the middle-aged knight looked up and squeezed out a smile and said, "Knight Locke, don't be restrained, we can sit down and talk."
Scars are the glory of the knight, and this middle-aged knight is no exception. His face, which was already serious enough, was squeezed out a smile by him, and the subtle scars on his face twisted like earthworms. Locke was really terrifying.
After advancing to level one, Locke discovered that at the moment when his life completes a qualitative change during the breakthrough, the knights can change their faces through the power bursting out of their blood and muscles, or become more handsome, or repair some scars on their bodies.
Locke is not interested in changing his appearance. What's the use of being handsome? He can't be used as a meal. He cherishes the appearance given to him by his parents.
However, Locke has all cleared some of the scars on his body. No matter how beautiful or ugly, he is simply not used to the dense scars on his body. In this regard, Locke is different from some traditional knights.
In addition, Locke also returned to his appearance when he was twenty-one and used the activated essence frequently. Locke's aging degree was slow. At his thirties, he was ten years younger in an instant. He was not a familiar person and could not tell.
"This contract clearly marks your obligations and powers in the next ten years. Please read them carefully." The middle-aged knight also knew that he was not a person who was good at talking. After briefly introducing Locke to each other, he handed him a scroll.
The scroll, which emits a faint fluctuation of energy, was carefully taken by Locke and spread out to read on the spot.
The words shown in the contract are not the words of the Omor Empire, nor the words of the Kingdom of Foster. This is an alien word that Locke has never been exposed to, but strangely, Locke can understand it.
Mental power reading method! A method that all creatures who have been promoted to level one can understand. This alien text is actually not in any font, but is completely solidified by the mental power of a strong man.
After ten years of voluntary labor, Locke had already planned to do a waste of work for the Knights Palace. After reading one by one, Locke found that in addition to completing tasks every year, there were some hidden benefits buried in it.
For example, representing the Knight Hall, on missions to certain countries on the mainland, or stationing in border guards on the Western islands, such as the border guards of Waiwei, the Knight has great power. As long as the Knight is not very smart, it will not be a problem to get enough benefits during the mission.
After reading the contract, Locke also used his mental power to portray his name and fill it in it on the contract.
When Locke signed a contract, he needed the power of the contract to help extract his own mental power, but now he can directly call for advanced power such as mental power.
"Then Knight Locke, I have a task on hand that you need to complete." The middle-aged Knight said after taking the contract handed back by Locke.
The middle-aged land knight is named Reilly, and this was what Locke knew when he introduced each other just now.
"Please say." Locke said in a deep voice. The knights in the Knights' Palace usually have a high degree of autonomy and ziyou rights. Only in three cases will they be forced to be recruited by the Knights' Palace.
First, the plane war transfer order issued by the Knights Hall. Any idle knight in the territory of the Western islands must accept the transfer order.
The second is a five-year compulsory mission. All the knights in the Knight Palace enjoy various rights in the Knight Palace. For example, there are xiulian potions issued by the Knight Palace every month. Although Locke rarely received this benefit, this benefit is tangible. This is just a small aspect of the rights granted by the Knight Palace, and there are many other benefits, which are endless.
Third, for those like Locke who signed a certain type of contract with the Knight Palace, most first-level knights in the Western Islands would work as white-handed workers for the Knight Palace in the past ten years of their promotion. This is also one of the important factors that the Knight Palace has been in a stable position for thousands of years.
"There is a prairie in the northwest border of the Omor Empire for Saka. The Bloodblade tribe on the prairie has not worshipped the Omor Empire for three consecutive years. I need you to help them reorganize the Bloodblade tribe and bring back the head of Higuain, the leader of the Bloodblade tribe." Reilly said seriously.
This was not only the first task that Locke had to complete during the ten years, but also a test issued by the Knights Palace to Locke.
"The duration of this task is nine months. For details, you can go to the task hall below and find someone to consult." Rayley said.
"Okay." Locke nodded.
"If you have nothing to do, you can leave. There will be someone in the Knights' Palace to explain some things you don't know." Rayley said to the guest.
Locke didn't want to leave so early. Any organization and force had its own deep-rooted factions. Locke, who had just entered the Knights' Hall, didn't want to break in like a naughty man, and rely on his thighs as soon as possible to find the organization so that he could have room for further development.
"I wonder if you know Knight Garcia?" Locke said erroneously. If he said that among the top knights in the Western Islands, Locke knew a Knight Garcia, and the two had communicated several times on the Revitalized Fairy Plane.
"Oh? Do you know Garcia?" Reilly's face relaxed a little, and his stern face relaxed, as if he was surprised that Rock knew Garcia.
"Yes, Knight Garcia once went to my country Foster to carry out missions, and when revitalizing the goblin plane, Knight Garcia also took good care of me." Locke replied carefully.
"She went to the Deep Blue Hellfire World to hunt Hellfire and raise resources. You may not see her for the time being." Reilly said with a smile. It seemed that he was very familiar with Garcia.
When Locke heard that there was a door, he echoed and briefly told some of his connections with the Knights of Garcia.
"Let's do this, I'll set you one year to complete the first mission, so you can have enough time to prepare." Locke's casino finally gained something, and Rayleigh smiled and took the initiative to expand the mission to him.
This means that Locke gave the first year of working in the Knight Palace for ten years, as long as he completed the task of destroying the Bloodblade tribe, he could allocate the rest of his time himself.
