Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

She secretly swore in her heart that she would hang up and beat up some of her best friends who had no friendship with members of the opposite sex.

After Peggy learned that the four people in the dormitory had gone to study at the Royal Academy of Rome, she couldn't help but want to leave directly.

She still misses college life.

But considering Laurence's current mess, she can't go yet.

"So how did the head of the Laurentine family disappear?"

"I'm not sure. His disappearance is probably related to the Shadow World." Peggy shook her head: "It would be best if he could be found alive. If not..."

Seeing Peggy's expression, Bai Yu knew that she was already thinking about kicking out the family and going to Rome to find some good friends.

"Are you planning to abdicate?"

"I can abdicate, but I cannot hand over the position to Morse." Peggy is very rational on this point: "He has a big noble behind him. Donghuang supports the faction of the family leader. Laurent will leave it to him in less than ten years." My family is about to be exterminated... I have been sleeping for five hundred years, and my tribe has been protecting me during this period, and I have to give back to them. "

She was serious for only a second, and Peggy quickly rubbed Bai Yu's shoulder: "But Mr. Yu is here, so I don't have to worry so much...I've already married you as my little wife, and my husband will help me raise a Laurence It’s normal at home, right?”

Bai Yu was surprised: "Why the little wife?"

"The eldest wife is Elysee."

……

In a dark chamber located in an underground waterway in the middle of winter, a candle was lit.

The dark mask was taken off.

Morse lowered his head and entered the room obediently, without any of the arrogance he had at the previous banquet.

"I still prefer your usual unruly look. You should recover."

A word from the man behind the desk made Morse break out in a cold sweat.

"...I, I don't dare."

"Oh, you dare to boss around CEO Donghuang and Young Master Bai, what else can you not do?" The black-robed man sneered, "Even the nobles have to be polite to them, you are so cruel, you dare to offend them to death."

"I know that only in this way can you, your Excellencies, like me." Morse bent down and stared at the uppers of his shoes respectfully.

"...You guessed it right. At least you have no chance to regret it." The noble in black robe said calmly: "I will prepare the duel agent for you."

Morse was ecstatic: "Thank you, Your Excellency!"

"But this price must be remembered on your head." Heipao said lightly: "When you become the head of the family, you will exchange one-third of Laurent's family property."

Without waiting for an answer, with a wave of the black-robed nobleman's hand, Morse was put on a blindfold and sent out of the underground.

By the time his blindfold was removed, he was already in the corner of a bustling alley.

"Is this really good?" A key member of the family asked in a low voice: "One third, but the family fortune saved over many years will explode in the family."

"But I can't wait!!"

"To seize the position of the head of the family, we must use the shortest possible time. Otherwise, when Bai Potian breaks free and gets that loser back, I won't have time to implement reforms."

Morse threw the blindfold on the ground and said with a gloomy face: "As long as I become the head of Laurentine's family, I will have a chance to show off my talents!"

"It's that loser who is jealous of my talent... I wanted to help this brother, but he disappointed me so much."

"He said my strategy was to walk a tightrope, but wasn't he also a dog for Donghuang?"

"The great nobles thought they had my lifeline, but I just used them as a cover."

The confidants behind him lowered their voices: "But Donghuang won't give up."

"Do you think there is only one Donghuang Group in Rome? Bai Potian is very strong, but the foreign aid I have attracted is not weak either!"

Morse's face was full of sternness: "So this knight's duel must be won at all costs!"

"Even if you use money to create a Knight of the Round Table!"

Chapter 778 Pendragon

The next day, it started to rain lightly in the middle of winter.

Bai Yu has actually been to London, England twice in his last life, but in detail, the styles of the two cities are still different.

The first time I went to London was when I was a kid and I went with my family. At that time, London was shrouded in white fog. People were walking around in a hurry and wearing masks. The air quality was really not that good. It was in line with the "Fog City" moment. Stereotype.

In fact, due to the environmental pollution caused by the industrial revolution, London's environment was quite bad for more than a century, and the air pollution was particularly serious. Later, the industry gradually receded and capital migrated out, turning it into pure offshore finance. After moving to the center, the air quality got better.

The second time he went to London was when he was twenty-five years old... Due to time difference, work efficiency, daily strikes in the UK, holidays, etc., an urgent signing document would have taken a full week, and he had to negotiate with My boss flew to London.

The London he saw at that time was a different scene. It was different from the stereotype. It once made him wonder if he had entered India.

The number of pickpockets is staggering. The boss’s mobile phone disappears within less than ten minutes after being left in his outer pocket; subway fares are ridiculously expensive, and the seats are stained; there are at least three locks on bicycles on the streets; There are people robbing down jackets on the road; the most outrageous thing is that some public notice boards directly remind the general public that the police station will not pay attention to cases of petty theft; while walking on the road, I encountered three strike teams, each from different places. union.

Those who watch it will feel numb.

It was also the second trip to London, which completely shattered the filter of rounder foreign moons that Bai Yu had established since childhood in "Yilin" and "Reader".

Even after traveling through time, the way I look at these Western countries always carries some stereotypes from the past.

Business in midwinter is not as prosperous as in Rome, but relatively speaking, the standard of living is passable.

As long as they work for the nobles, most people can get a decent income to support their families.

The real lower class people are also invisible here. They usually stay in urban and rural areas throughout their lives.

It can be seen that the citizens of the capital who live in the urban area in the middle of winter are quite wealthy.

"It's probably at the level of the early 19th century..."

Bai Yu muttered to himself, it was an era when old-style imperialism was encircling the world, and it was full of gunpowder.

"what are you saying?"

On the rainy and foggy street, Melusina was followed closely under the umbrella. The two of them were strolling around holding an umbrella.

In the middle of winter, there is actually nothing important to do. There is no need to rush to visit the royal family. You can only wait for the royal family to take the initiative to receive you.

For Melusina, this was a leisurely vacation. It was not bad to be able to hold the hand of her favorite brother and stroll all the way to the end of the world.

only……

There happened to be an extra light bulb next to me.

Naturally, Peggy followed. She put on her student-era clothes and looked young and beautiful.

The two were an unmarried couple, and Melusina couldn't drive them away if she wasn't happy. She could only talk to attract Bai Yu's attention, mentioning some famous street scenes in the capital in mid-winter, and talking about some famous old shops. , she actually wanted to customize a suit for Bai Yu in the old suit shop in the middle of winter, but the other party's appointment has been scheduled for half a year.

"This store's handicraft shop is really good..." As she was talking, she caught a glimpse of Peggy running back at the other end of the street despite the rain.

Didn't even notice when she left.

Peggy took out something hidden under her shawl and took it out as if it was a treasure: "How about a taste of the croissant that was just baked?"

Bai Yu was not polite, took a piece of bread, thought about it and handed it to Melusina.

As soon as Sister Shirley caught it, she saw Paige take out a piece of bread, tear it in half, and hand one half to Bai Yu.

"How about it?"

"It tastes good. I want to take some back home."

"No, it's a treasure shop I discovered myself."

The two of them were hiding under umbrellas, holding steaming bread, each of them eating half of it, with smiles on their faces.

They look very well matched, like a couple.

Melusina also took a bite of the bread, feeling mixed.

I have to admit that in terms of pleasing people, she, the female CEO, cannot compare to Laurence's eldest lady.

The original planned tour route was to take a boat ride to see the scenery of the Tay River, and then go to the famous opera house to watch the latest opera Roman Holiday, a one-day love drama between a poor boy and a princess.

But Melusina thought about it and decided to forget all about reservations and simply take a walk in the city, wherever she goes, go to some street corners, see free museums, and visit The crafts are good.

The three of them were young people with strong physical strength. They walked from the south of the city to the north of the city and then from the north to the river in seven or eight hours.

For dinner, I also bought a piece of fried chicken at a public price on the roadside... Although Britain is a food desert, at least it has enough fried chicken, French fries, cakes and desserts.

I was in a good mood along the way, until at night, the rain became heavier and heavier, and it was no longer convenient to wander around, so I had to turn back to the city.

We encountered many vehicles on the road and even horse-drawn carriages.

From here, you can see the old-fashioned way of doing things in the middle of winter. A carriage requires horses and a driver. These two things alone consume far more money than a luxury car.

The sound of horse hooves echoed on the road, along with the rutting sound of rolling wheels.

"Get out of the way...and stay out of the way."

The coachman rang the bell and whistle.

Bai Yu took the two women's wrists and retreated to the side of the road.

But the carriage was traveling so fast that the wheels splashed a lot of water as they passed by.

Turbid water waves surged up, and Bai Yu silently released his aura to act as a shield. The water splashed as if hitting an invisible barrier, then bounced back and splashed on the wall of the carriage.

The sound is quite loud.

Someone in the carriage rolled his eyes through the glass and looked out the window.

They glanced at each other, and their eyes met for a moment.

Then the wheels rolled and the carriage moved away.

"What was that just now?" Bai Yu asked.

"On the carriage is Pendragon's family crest."

"Pendragon?" A figure of a stupid king popped up in Bai Yu's mind: "King Arthur?"

"Whether King Arthur really existed in history is a mystery. After all, there was a rupture in history in Midwinter, and only fairy tales and legends were circulated." Melusina commented: "Pendragon is not a direct descendant of King Arthur."

"After all, King Arthur died with his descendant Mordred?"

"So they did not inherit the name of King Arthur, but the bloodline of the red dragon."

Peggy held Bai Yu's arms, looked at the direction the carriage was leaving and said, "It is rumored that King Arthur in history inherited the blood of the red dragon in Britain, and the Pendragon family was also confirmed to have inherited the blood of the red dragon, so He regards King Arthur as his ancestor and calls himself Pendragon."

Bai Yu asked curiously: "Can you still recognize your ancestors and return to your clan like this?"

According to this statement, should we kowtow to Mr. Wu An directly?

"As long as there are enough merits, anyone who mistakenly identifies their ancestors will be taken seriously." Peggy said: "At least now, Pendragon is one of the most powerful knight families in Midwinter."

Red dragon bloodline?

Bai Yu really wanted to ask the Dragon Mother if the red dragon here was her familiar dragon.

"There is another unique rule in the Pendragon family..."

"The best knights of Pendragon in each generation will challenge other Knights of the Round Table."

"If you can win over half of the Knights of the Round Table and gain their recognition, you will be qualified to inherit the name of Arthur given by your family, and you will add Arthur to your name."

Hearing this, Bai Yu asked directly: "So this Arthur Pendragon is the King of Knights of this generation."

"That's right. Although the royal family does not have any recognition of it, it is more like an honor spread among the knights."

"Who is the King of Knights of this generation?" Melusina directly asked the key question: "Is he canonized?"

"It's not canonization." Paige paused: "Who is the King of Knights of this generation..."

……

In the moving carriage, there were two people sitting facing each other.

"Lezan, you should act happier."

A richly dressed aristocratic man said with a smile: "The duel agent this time is none other than you."

Pendragon's direct lineage man raised his eyes, and he stretched out his hand to touch the red dragon pattern on his sleeves.

"Marquis George, I don't want to get involved in such a complicated struggle for aristocratic rights."

"I know you are a pure knight, but the world of aristocrats has always been a mess." George shook his head and sighed: "I have been your godfather for so many years, so I naturally know your temper, but this opportunity is really real. Don’t miss it, you won’t go wrong listening to me.”

"Soon the Midwinter nobles will know about this duel, and it will begin under the eyes of everyone."

"Why do countless knights and duel agents participate in duels? Honor and prestige!"
