The Original Vampire
The Original Vampire Chapter 5: knight

The atmosphere in the Bearded Tavern was still noisy and warm.

However, the atmosphere in the corner where the Saru people were located immediately stagnated.

"Riding... knights?" The old mercenary opened his mouth wide and looked at Colin in surprise.

He knew that Colin's identity was not simple, but he never thought that he was a knight.

You should know that the knights of this world are fundamentally different from the warriors of the Bad Way.

Any well-developed civilian who can afford meat can learn how to inspire revenge in the Warrior Union and become a combat apprentice as long as he takes out some silver coins.

But the knight was different.

To become an apprentice knight, you must first possess certain talents, and, more importantly, you must receive a baptismal ceremony led by the pastor of the Church of Glory.

in contrast to baptism on earth, which is only symbolic and can be sprinkled with water.Baptism ceremonies in this world are where the pastor of the Church of Glory communicates with the Lord of Glory, the Lord of Glory, and carve a holy mark on the baptized.

This process was very expensive for the priest, therefore, the baptismal ceremony that any priest could lead in his life was limited.

Therefore, this kind of baptism quota was extremely valuable, it had basically been completely monopolized by the nobles, and it was almost impossible for civilians to achieve it.

The rarity of knights could be imagined.

For example, the Baron of Anglia had only three loyal knights, plus the baron himself and his son Colin, and the entire baron had only five knights.

Among them, Colin had not even entered the ranks, and was currently only a knight apprentice.

Professionals in this world could be divided into ninth level according to their strength, with the first level being the weakest and the ninth level being the strongest.

Of course, there is an apprenticeship level below the first level, which is set for beginners who have not formally entered the level.

Knights and warriors of the same rank were, in fact, the difference in combat strength was not too great. The knights did have the advantage, but in a direct confrontation, they did not necessarily win over the soldiers. After all, factors such as martial skills, will, weapons and equipment should be considered.

The real reason why the nobles wanted the knight profession was actually because of its potential.

The pinnacle of the warrior profession was Tier 6.

Yes, looking at the entire continent, there had never been a seventh level warrior, whether it was a human, troll, orc, or an elf.

According to the statement under the crown of the first Pope Peter Messer of the Church of Radiance—

"Humans need the gift of a god to enter the sanctuary."

The seventh level or higher was a sanctuary, so seventh level knights were also called Paladins.

Therefore, according to this statement, soldiers who have not received baptism, of course, cannot obtain the gift of the gods, and therefore have no relation to the seventh rank.

Currently, there were only five occupations that could break through the sixth rank in this world.

And without exception, it was all a profession that believed in a certain god.

is a human knight who serves the Lord of Radiance, a troll warrior who serves the god of war, an elf guard who serves the goddess of fate, the guardian of the dragon kingdom who serves the god of storms, and the, and orc skull crushers who serve the god of destruction.

Even spellcasters who claimed not to believe in gods and only believed in mysterious truths were unable to break through to Level 6.

However, they can unleash forbidden curses with the power of rank 7 or higher.

But the release of such forbidden spells required the caster to pay a very terrible price, and it could not be considered a conventional means of attack.

Of course, the shrine was clearly not easy for knights to enter.

Once a paladin is born into a family, the whole family will stand out for it.

And all families born with Paladins will receive the honor of being crowned with the word "Holy" in front of their surnames.

For example, the Hilde family, the northern border rulers of the Glory Empire, were the descendants of paladins from the founding country of the empire, so they were respected as the Saint Hilde family.

In the entire history of the Great Kingdom, only seven paladin families appeared.

As for the eighth level, it was called the legendary realm.

Ghana Lorenzo, the founding emperor of the Kingdom of Glory, was a Paladin in the legendary realm, and the only one recorded in history.

For over a thousand years after him, there had never been a paladin that entered the legendary world.

Not to mention ninth.

Level 9 was also known as the Demigod Realm, and it was said that only dragons that had once dominated this world could achieve it. After their extinction, no race was able to be reborn as a demigod powerhouse.

As for the ninth level, it was the realm of the gods ...

In short, knights were noble and rare. It could even be said that they only belonged to nobles. Clearly, they should have appeared in places like castles rather than bearded taverns.

Generally, no knight would choose to follow the mercenary group to another city. After all, they had their own subordinates, servants, and even troops.

Therefore, Colin's appearance was very strange.

Just as the atmosphere in the corner became more and more serious, a small hairy head suddenly emerged from Colin's shirt.

"Meow—" seems unsatisfied being bullied by her good night, a kitten "sawing" on the beard.

Colin smiled slightly, pushed a man who had climbed into his clothes again, and then asked the beard: "How do you say that I am a knight?"

Colin was actually quite careful.

not equipped with armor, the sword was only a standard one-handed sword he could hold, and his clothes were also "borrowed" from the guard uniform similar to his body.

And, according to the memories of his predecessor, although the fighters and knights did have different fighting appearances, Law read www.uukanshu.com, but in the absence of gunfire, there should be no difference.

Moreover, for an apprentice knight like Colin who had yet to enter the ranks, as he was unable to inspire the Sacred Light to assist in the fight, even if it was really a fight, it was not, it was no different from a warrior apprentice.

Is there really a way to differentiate these two professions?

Colin felt that this might be a blind spot in his predecessor's knowledge.

But who knows, Saru smiled slylyly: "Take a guess."

cheated!

Colin immediately reacted, he was fooled by this seemingly frivolous and simple beard.

Especially since this person's appearance was too confusing.

The Firefox mercenary group.

Ha ha, no wonder it is called this name.

looks like a cruel bear, but is actually as cunning as a fox.

"I've been in the mercenary world for over forty years. I don't know how many people have been seen with these eyes. Hey, Son, even though you're dressed modestly, you don't look like a civilian at first sight. Sure enough, you will be caught if you cheat. NS!"

Colin took a deep breath and kept reminding himself in his heart that he had to be careful and careful when dealing with experienced old rivers and lakes like Saru.

However, on the surface, Colin appeared calm and composed, completely devoid of any revealed tension.

He first took out ten copper coins and threw them at the old mercenary in front of Saru, indicating that he could leave first.

Then he opened the chair next to Saru and sat down naturally, "I admit that the previous trick was really not right. I'm sorry to you. However, you mustn't refuse a knight to walk with you?"

"Your name?" Saru threw away her smile, looked at Colin's eyes and asked.

Colin looked directly into Saru's eyes, and replied in the most sincere tone:

"Kahn, Kahn Suduo."
