The King - Chapter 332
In Arbor County, the Holliser family, decorated with lanterns and colorful lights, is constantly busy amidst the din of people.
On this happy day, Melissa, the protagonist, was full of apprehension.
In a few hours, she will leave the place where she was born and raised, and live in a completely strange environment.
Recalling the several contacts with Hudson, Melissa was both happy and secretly worried.
It is a good thing to have selected a potential stock, but this potential stock has gone too fast, completely exceeding expectations. Vaguely, she felt that she was a little out of control.
But this kind of thing cannot be said to others. The outside world doesn’t know how many people envy and hate her. If she can’t grasp it, there must be a large group of people who are willing to grasp it on her behalf.
“Miss, the time is coming, it’s time to get ready!”
The maid’s reminder pulled Melissa out of worrying about gains and losses.
“Know it!”
The smile on his face revealed the joy in his heart. In any case, from the current point of view, she is undoubtedly successful.
It was also a manifestation of her vision that she was able to pick out a dragon knight from among the many marriage candidates.
“The earl is a dragon knight, and the dragon will definitely appear later. I have never seen what a dragon looks like. Miss, have you seen what a dragon looks like?”
The maid’s chirping words made Melissa roll her eyes. She also wants to know what the dragon looks like!
Perseveringly, the two families began to discuss the big marriage as soon as the big battle ended. According to the rules, when the wedding is approaching, they are not allowed to meet.
The aristocratic education from a young age does not allow this kind of pre-marital disrespect. Even if Hudson came over, she could only hide in the dark and peek.
“What’s the hurry, won’t you see it in a while!”
Melissa said with a smile.
It can be seen from the eyes that she has a special feeling for the chatty maid who grew up with her.
It is not easy to be an aristocrat, but it is even more difficult to be a noble lady. Behind the rich clothes and fine food, there are cumbersome noble etiquette rules and a family that lacks warmth.
Earl Oran loved her very much since he was a child, but that was also based on the premise that her family was valuable.
Especially with the continuous improvement of Hudson’s status, her status in the mansion also increased. Simple family affection is worthless here.
A group of illegitimate children and sisters are examples. They are also young ladies and masters in the mansion. It is difficult to say a word to Earl Oran in normal times.
There was a dragon chant, and everyone knew that today’s protagonist had arrived, and the guests went out to watch the fun.
Maxim’s huge size has attracted a lot of attention. If you look closely, you will find that he has grown a little more than he did a few months ago.
Such a big guy is still growing and developing, if it is placed in the Dragon Clan, it will definitely cause an uproar.
But this is a human race, and most people’s understanding of dragons is limited to legends. For Maxim’s big man, everyone directly attributed it to strength.
Originally, according to the rules, Hudson should bring the wedding party here. However, the strong always have privileges, riding Maxim to come is the biggest card, so the wedding process was simply modified.
A large team of people to welcome the relatives must still be indispensable. It’s just that their task has changed, instead of welcoming the bride, it has become the delivery of the dowry.
As for the task of picking up the bride, Maxim is enough! Riding a giant dragon to get married is much more exciting than riding a horse-drawn carriage.
If there is no accident, this unique wedding can be passed down in the southeastern province and even the entire Alpha Kingdom for countless years.
Originally, today’s wedding was a show of force, so Hudson naturally let Maxim show off.
The only restriction is to let him gather his momentum. After all, it’s your own wedding, and you can’t just throw it up for the sake of pretending. If the dragon’s aura is too strong, and you accidentally take away a few guests, it will be embarrassing if the wedding turns into a funeral.
There was no need to order, the people below tacitly gave up a huge open space for Maxim to settle down.
Hudson, who jumped off the dragon, attracted countless eyeballs as soon as he appeared on the stage. Envy, jealousy, and admiration of all kinds of eyes, that’s the list.
Having no time to pay attention to everyone’s thoughts, Hudson started the process with a smile on his face according to the pre-rehearsed script.
After tossing and tossing for several hours, the exhausted Hudson finally received the bride.
“Let’s go, Melissa!”
While speaking, Hudson didn’t care about the etiquette and rules, and directly picked up the bride and walked out of the new house, and flew tens of meters into the air to land on the dragon.
Under the surprised and envious eyes of the guests below, he directly greeted Maxim to leave.
“Hudson, can you slow down your dragon flight?”
Glancing below, Melissa hugged Hudson tightly and said in a little panic.
In fact, Maxim’s flying speed is not fast at the moment, it’s just the first time he’s set foot at a height of 100 meters, and Melissa isn’t used to it yet.
“Don’t worry, I released the magic shield, you won’t fall!”
While speaking, Hudson deliberately reached out and pinched Melissa’s tender little cheek.
Marrying a wife is not easy. If it weren’t for the privileges of the strong, which simplifies most of the procedures, the wedding alone would take at least a month.
It’s not that the wedding lasts for a long time, but that the journey to meet the relatives is too long. There were too many relatives and friends along the way, and the time passed after socializing all the way.
The current arrangement is the best for both families. Bringing a giant dragon out to pick up the bride, this thing is the most powerful in the mainland. It not only saves face for both parties, but also saves a lot of time.
As for the dowry items, they can be thrown to the wedding reception team and slowly transported back. Anyway, in the name of Hudson, no noble lord dares to block the road and rob.
“Hmph! You know how to bully me!”
While speaking, Melissa pinched Hudson’s waist.
“Who is bullying you, tell me quickly? Be sure to show him how powerful Dragon Knight is!”
Hudson pretended to be confused and teased.
The flirting between the two did not affect the young single bear, but it affected the adult single dragon below, and there were faint signs of estrus.
…
Restricted by traffic, it is not easy for nobles who are scattered all over the world to meet. The marriage of great nobles is not only a celebration, but also an opportunity for everyone to exchange feelings.
What is different from the past is that this time the gathering also involved the “Warcraft Legion Project” that has caused a lot of trouble in the kingdom.
Not only the great nobles of the kingdom sent important members, but even some big forces abroad also sent important representatives.
Representatives of many forces gathered in the Mountain Territory, making this already legendary wedding even more unusual.
Fortunately, Hudson’s castle is large enough, otherwise it would be embarrassing if there is no place for the guests to settle.
Looking at the big figures who were rarely seen in the past, frequently entering the hall, Cheers couldn’t help but sigh: “The Earl of Hudson has a big face, not only the kingdom and all the powers will not fall, but also the northern countries. Almost all of the representatives from here have come!”
I think back when Hudson was just a fledgling, he was the one who took it with him. In just a few short years of effort, the two sides have widened the qualitative gap.
After so many years of tossing around, he was still a small nobleman, but the ignorant boy in the past stood at the top of the kingdom.
“Dragon Knight naturally has a lot of face, and now everyone is waiting for the earl’s dragon to be in heat and breed! Isn’t this wedding the best place for everyone to get closer?”
Baron Kettley said with a smile.
He smiled happily, but deep down he was bleeding. He also made a lot of achievements in this war, not to mention crossing the threshold of the middle-class nobles at one time, at least he should get another fertile fief.
Unfortunately, the family behind him was deeply involved in the case of reselling military supplies, which caused damage to the interests of the kingdom. His background as an aristocrat in the north directly made him miss the post-war rewards.
It’s impossible to make a fuss. If it weren’t for Hudson, the boss, and without family support, they wouldn’t even be able to stay in the southeastern province.
A series of blows has long smoothed his arrogance. No matter how talented you are, you can’t get ahead if your luck is bad.
There are still many children of nobles in the Northland who have encountered similar situations. The original team that the Duke of Kavadia prepared for his son was all cheaper than Hudson.
It’s not that they have hard bones, it’s just that these unflexible guys have paid the price of their lives in the war.
“Baron Kettley is very knowledgeable, and he can see the essence of the problem at a glance. It seems that Earl Hudson has a lot of talents under his command!”
The sudden addition of Kayo changed the flavor of this conversation. Regardless of their original background, they all hang out with Hudson now, and the Viscount Cayo in front of him is a core member of the Dalton family.
Even if there is no sign of the two families turning their faces at the moment, everyone present is very good, and they know very well that this kind of harmony is difficult to maintain for a long time.
Unless you are planning to change jobs, as a younger brother, if you get too close to the high-level hostile forces, obviously there will be no good results.
“Thank you, Your Excellency, Viscount, for your compliment. Speaking of the abundance of talents, I still recommend your family in the southeast province.
It has only been a few months, and I heard that the nobles have completed the Crimson Knights. This strength background is the most precious wealth we are chasing! ”
Nelson’s words saved everyone from embarrassment.
After all, he didn’t come here to mess things up, and the reality didn’t allow him to be self-willed. After some business bragging, Viscount Cayo quickly disappeared into the crowd.
…
In a hall dedicated to the activities of the great nobles, it became lively at the moment. As the outside world guessed, coming to attend the wedding was just incidental, and the real purpose was to borrow seeds.
“Grand Duke, we came here this time to seek cooperation with sincerity. I have to admit that compared with the big forces in the central and southern parts of the mainland, the development of our northern continent is too lagging behind.
After the orc war that just ended, everyone seems to have reached a consensus: the future battlefield belongs to the Extraordinary Legion.
The Kingdom of Franks, the Holy See, the Kingdom of Iberia, the Black…all these major forces have formed their own army of monsters.
If we want to catch up with them in a short period of time, no matter which one of us can do it alone, the best option is to join forces! ”
Count Renato said with a serious expression.
Whether the “union” is in the interests of all countries is still unknown, anyway, it is enough that it is in the interests of the Principality of Moxi.
Hearing this proposal, the first reaction of the Grand Duke of Newfoundland was: it is not normal, there is a conspiracy, how can there be such an advantage in the world?
Immediately, he felt relieved again. The current Principality of Moxi does not have the capital to engage in conspiracy.
Nominally, it is a joint investment in research and development, and the final research and development results are shared together. In fact, the same results can play very different roles in the hands of different forces.
Once the results are achieved, with the size of the Alpha Kingdom, it will be no problem to form a few full-staffed monster legions.
No matter how fertile the land of the Principality of Moxi, it can at most maintain half of the military strength of the Alpha Kingdom, and the other countries are even worse.
“Count Renato, I personally support your proposal.
We are all countries in the North Continent. It is undoubtedly the best choice if we can twist together and join hands to catch up with the countries in the South.
But this is a big matter, I have to report it to His Majesty the King before I can give you an accurate answer! ”
The Grand Duke of Newfoundland said pretending to be calm.
If you are not in charge of your family, you don’t know how expensive firewood is. As the Prime Minister of the Alpha Kingdom, he spends half of his time worrying about financial issues.
Now someone is coming to help share the investment, and he really can’t find a reason to refuse. As for the possible exodus of the cultivated monsters, he didn’t take it seriously at all.
The exodus of the cultivated monsters is bound to happen. Once the troops are equipped on a large scale, it is impossible to keep it secret.
Taking the Frankish Kingdom as an example, the Tyrannosaurus Rex they cultivated painstakingly is sold in some **** markets, but the price is a bit scary.
“Grand Duke, this kind of thing must pay attention to efficiency. It is said that Hudson’s red dragon is about to enter the estrus period. If this opportunity is missed, it will be a big loss.
It is best for everyone to reach a cooperation agreement as soon as possible, send all the female beasts to the mountain collar, and wait for the red dragon to come into heat! ”
Count Renato said a little impatiently.
There is no way, the Alpha Kingdom has already started to act. On the way they arrived at the mountain territory, they encountered a convoy transporting female beasts.
If the cooperation is not reached as soon as possible, the Alpha Kingdom may complete the first experiment alone. If you have achieved certain results and want to join in later, the price you pay will not be a little bit.
Just when the Grand Duke of Newfoundland had a headache, how should he respond, a dragon chant came from the sky, attracting everyone’s attention.
It is human nature to like to watch the excitement, and no one needs to organize it. All the guests left the hall as quickly as possible.
In order to better achieve the pretentious effect, Hudson deliberately let Maxim circle around in the air a few times, so that the guests could feast their eyes.
Habitually reached out and squeezed Melissa’s face, Hudson said intimately: “We’re here, let’s go down!”
