King’s Kingdom - Chapter 265
The number of iron-clad paladins is limited, but it is not so difficult to increase the number of ordinary knights. So far, the Lanyin Kingdom has built ten knights’ competition arenas, each of which can provide two knights with three personal points. The bonus of actual combat ability, and the 20% bonus of charge ability.
Up to now, there are 200 bonus places, but this kind of knight competition field can also be upgraded. Each level can increase the quota of ten people, and there is no need to continue to build it.
Therefore, after Theodosius invested 10,000 Sunshine Gold Coins, the ten knights’ competition field entered an upgraded state.
This kind of system upgrade does not appear out of thin air. Twenty needs to dispatch some laborers to put up the frame and build the building part, and then the system’s ability will take effect, allowing the knights to have bonuses.
However, although this arena can no longer be used for training, the effect has not disappeared, and there will still be bonuses, but it does not affect the knights’ strength.
Sir Ledwin was standing in the barracks watching the many knights playing off the field.
The current competition is 166 official Lanyn knights, who were killed and disabled on the battlefield of Ikopixi before, and lost 34 Lann knights, and the Iron Paladins also lost seven. .
There are currently only fifty-three members of the sixty-member knights, which means that there are now twenty-seven vacancies. Generally speaking, this kind of vacancy is selected by the best and most loyal among the Knights of the Rain. people to fill.
In the past, more than 100 people competed for two or three places. It can be said that thousands of troops have crossed the single-plank bridge, but this time there are 27 places. Compared with 166 Lanyin knights, this is already quite high. probability.
With such great hope, all the Knights of Lan Yin are gearing up to show their skills and stand out from among the one hundred and sixty-six people, becoming one of the twenty-seven.
There are three types of competitions, one is horse-riding spear fighting, the other is swordsmanship showdown under horse, and the third is archery on foot, because the group of iron-clad paladins also fights with bows when necessary, so This is also a must-have skill.
Of course, the skill of archery is basically mastered by all knights and is relatively superb. In addition, the more important duty of the armored paladins is actually to charge, so the proportion of archery is not large, and the most important thing is actually riding a spear. and step down swordsmanship.
As for why not to try out the combat spear, the reason is very simple.
The lance on horseback is more difficult and more difficult to operate than the spear.
There are a lot of people in the competition, but fortunately, the training ground is large enough to conduct group competitions, so the progress is not slow.
It took more than four hours until near noon, and all the competitions had been completed. In the end, twenty-seven Lan Yin knights stood out from their companions.
Their competition was very exciting. Although these Lanyin knights were not as good as the iron-clad paladins, they were definitely first-class players among the ordinary knights.
This can be seen from the expressions of the knights from all over the country. The more than 500 knights from all over the Rhine Kingdom or those who have the qualifications to become knights are stunned.
Obviously, the fighting power of the Lanyin knights is far beyond their imagination, and it is necessary to choose the best in order to join the iron-clad Paladins, so what kind of knights will the members of the “God’s Favor” have? combat power?
They haven’t seen the heroic appearance of the Iron Paladins on the battlefield, so they don’t know, they can only guess.
As for the members of the Orteban family who came from other countries, they were exactly the same as these local knights.
This is very rare.
These Ortban family members can come to the Lanyin Kingdom. In fact, to be honest, most of them did not get along well in their hometowns, or they were not the eldest sons and did not have the right to inherit the family. After receiving the necessary training, they returned with a suit. Fair enough equipment to leave home and wander around.
In the past, the Lanyin Kingdom was only a small country, and its financial and human resources were quite embarrassing. Even if it was to be promoted, it would definitely choose the closer relatives, and these distant relatives would not bother to disturb them.
However, since Theodosius came to power, the strength of the Lanyin Kingdom has increased day by day, and it has also issued invitations to members of the Ortban family from various places. Now they know that their distant relative in the north has made a fortune and needs to Help him guard the property and conquer the Quartet.
In the Dragon Continent, it is normal for relatives to defect to the past to serve them after they have developed, and for most of the lords and rulers, this is also a very necessary means of rule.
Let these distant relatives who are not assigned the right of inheritance come over and hold some positions in their own territory, which can effectively stabilize their own rule. This is how generations of nobles survive.
Of course, this situation is also due to the clear and inviolable inheritance system. Except for the eldest son of the ruler and other sons, everyone else has no inheritance rights.
Only the eldest son, the other sons, all die, or simply become extinct, the inheritance will be passed on among the ruler’s brothers and sisters in turn according to age. Pick one person to inherit.
This kind of inheritance system makes distant relatives no threat to the ruler’s family property at all, so everyone is happy to reuse their relatives.
These Orteban family members may not do well in their hometowns, but without exception ~www.mtlnovel.com~ they are all people who have seen the world.
Because the descendants of the Ortban, who are so poor that they can’t even afford to eat and can’t afford to communicate with relatives, have already changed their surnames, and are not well-known by various branches, so it is naturally impossible for them to be invited by the Lanyin Kingdom.
These people may have no inheritance rights, or they may not be satisfied with what they can inherit, but they are young people who want to have a better future elsewhere.
But each of them has a prominent family at least in the local area, has seen all kinds of people, and even participated in many competitions, but even so, the strength, speed, and Their superb skills still amazed them, and at the same time they wondered whether they also possessed such strength.
However, to the dismay of these people, it seems that they really do not have such strength.
After the competition of the Rine Knights, the twenty-seven winners cheered ecstatically, because they were about to become the strongest group of people in this army, with the highest status and the best equipment.
As for those who lost the election, they were all like mourning their wives. This was most likely an opportunity with the highest probability, but they failed to seize it. It will be difficult to estimate the probability of such a selection in the future.
