Chapter 93 Coming out of the front door

   "Wind sound?"

  In the majestic Eye of the Storm Hall.

   Facing the governor's questioning, Li Feng looked calm and replied loudly:

   "Yes, Mr. Governor, it is the wind.

  I didn't understand it at the time, but later, one night when I came to Zijinhua Church, I heard the wind again.

  I didn’t realize until then that the sound of the wind was a revelation from the Goddess of Hunting, and I was successfully promoted to become a hunter.

   Regarding how I obtained flint and how I became a hunter, I can only think that this is the favor and arrangement of the goddess of hunting for me.

   Other than that, I can't explain it. "

   Li Feng gave a detailed explanation, directly pushing the reason why he got the flint to the Goddess of Hunting.

   In this way, the word "steal" can no longer be put on his head.

  After all, to say that Li Feng stole things now is equivalent to saying that the Hunting Goddess stole things.

   Moreover, Li Feng had already foreseen it.

  When he spoke the previous paragraph, he described the process of falling into the pond and discovering the underwater cave as quite legendary, and it was by no means like what normal people would encounter.

  In combination with the latter paragraph, his entire experience in Moonlight Island.

   It's like the goddess of hunting, arranging a young man who hates hatred and hatred to encounter adventures.

   Kestrel listened to Li Feng's words, and it was the first time he heard some details.

  He trusted Li Feng as a human being, so he didn't feel it was fake.

  On the contrary, he thinks Li Feng is the protector of the Seven Gods even more.

   As for the Governor, he leaned one elbow on the arm of the wide chair, brooding.

  The governor is an old Jianghu after all, so he first overturned Li Feng's words in his heart.

  Assume that the hunter lying on the ground was killed by Li Feng, or someone helped Li Feng kill him.

   But in this way, the Governor couldn't figure out why he got the response from the Hunting Goddess so quickly and was promoted to a hunter.

  The governor still dare not doubt that there is something involved with the gods.

  After all, he really never imagined that in his world, there are players, but players have such things as systems.

   With a wave of his hand, the Governor asked the Knight Longevity to carry the body down.

  Li Feng is just a commoner on his storm island, and the governor still has a way to deal with him no matter whether it is overt or dark.

  Afterwards, the governor stood up with a smile. He looked at Li Feng majesticly and kindly from a height, and said:

  "Mr. Rhine really deserves to be the hero who saved Wind's Rest. Not only is he courageous and scheming, he is also selfless and fearless. I am very happy to see you today.

   Today, to the west of my Isle of Storms, there are countless unexplored islands.

  Since Mr. Rhine came to my Storm Island to live and become a citizen of my Storm Island.

   Why don't you join the Storm Navy and explore new islands for the people of our island, so that you can make contributions, increase your ranks, and honor your descendants.

   I just don't know Mr. Rhine, what do you think? "

  Hearing what the governor said, Li Feng frowned slightly, thinking:

  'Sure enough. '

  Governor Fair is in an inquiring tone.

  But he is the governor, he has the right to arrange the fate of anyone on Storm Island, let alone Li Feng is still a commoner.

  Although it appeared that the governor was asking for Li Feng's opinion, in fact, Li Feng had no right to refuse.

   This is the natural moat between commoners and nobles.

  The Endless Sea is a feudal society, where there is no concept of equality for everyone, and the kingship controls everything.

   Specific to each island and each territory, the power of the governor and nobles is greater than everything else.

  Even though Li Feng has the title of hero for killing demons and saving Wind's Rest, he has not been canonized by a governor or a king, and no matter what, he is still a commoner at his will.

  The governor relied on this, as long as he opened his mouth to arrange Li Feng's life, and threw him to the navy full of his eyeliner, as Li Feng, he couldn't refuse at all.

  At this moment, the smile on the governor's face is getting bigger and bigger. This smile comes from the heart. It already carries the victory of power, and it also hypocritically exudes the generosity of a corporal.

  Looking at Governor Fair, Li Feng understood everything in his heart.

  Since entering the Hall of the Eye of the Storm and meeting Governor Penrose Fell.

  Although the governor was polite and smiling on the surface, he was pressing hard every step of the way.

   It's just that his tricks were all resolved by himself.

   Seeing that he has not caught the handle in other aspects, let alone punished the crime, then the governor will go to the navy by himself, but this move is nothing more than trying to see the dagger.

  'He meant to keep me away from the Ring of the Earth and the City of Wind's Rest.

  Go to a place full of his eyeliner and completely unstoppable.

  Then let the dangers of exploring the island consume me slowly, or simply send someone to kill me.

   Heh, Governor Fell is really good at thinking. '

   And Li Feng also understood that as a commoner, he couldn't refuse.

  If he really refuses, then the Governor, who is pretending to be magnanimous at the moment, may immediately make use of the problem to punish him for the crimes he committed.

  …

  The summer morning sun shone on the white crystal towers of Storm's End.

  The White Crystal Tower is in a very inconspicuous position in Storm's End.

  The people living here are all the unpopular children and family members of Governor Penrose Fell, and Shia's bedroom is also here.

   "What? Father is summoning...Mr. Rhine?"

  Just now, Xia heard from her maid Shirley that the governor was summoning Li Feng from her maid who had just returned.

  ‘How is it possible, that guy took my money and didn’t run away? '

  Xia was extremely surprised.

  ‘He clearly knows his situation, why would he choose to stay here? '

  Xia paced back and forth in her small and sunny bedroom.

  ‘Unless…unless he already has other plans. '

   "Shirley, what else have you heard? What does father plan to ask Mr. Rhine to do?"

   Shia asked while pretending to be casual.

   "It seems that Mr. Rhine will go to the navy. After all, he is not an aristocrat. The governor is so kind, and he will definitely give him a chance to make contributions first."

  Shirley said with a smile while tidying up Shia's few dresses:

   "I heard these from the cooks in the kitchen. They should have heard from the servants."

   Shia nodded after hearing this, and then she turned her back to Shirley in thought.

  Shirley thought it was the governor's kindness to go to the navy to explore the island, but Shia knew more about it.

  Like Li Feng, she also knows what it means to be thrown into the navy.

  Don’t mention all kinds of dangers, just say that there are all the governor’s eyeliner, and it’s too easy to kill a person openly.

'no! I have to stop this thing. '

  Shea stood up while thinking, took a crystal ball from her room, and left the White Crystal Tower.

  For Li Feng's sake and for her own sake, Xi Ya is going to use her status as a great fortune teller to give Li Feng a safe future.

   Just like this, his identity is about to be exposed.

  ‘I don’t know if that guy will laugh at me when the time comes. '

  On the way, Xi Ya complained in her heart, and then began to think about what she should "divinate" this time.

  After thinking about it, Shia suddenly remembered a rumor.

  A hundred years ago, there was a famous divination master who prophesied that a hundred years later, a protector of the seven gods would appear.

  And this person will lead the human race to unravel the reason why human beings cannot advance to demigods.

  ‘Well...not to mention, the blessing of the God of Dreams, and the secret treasure flint...

  Rhine and this prophesied patron of the seven gods really have a few elements that can match up. '

  After making up her mind, Shia immediately quickened her pace and rehearsed the lines she was about to say over and over in her mind.

  …

  Eye of the Storm Hall.

   Kestrel looked slightly at Li Feng.

  He said in his heart that he wanted Eminem to do something, but there was no news about it until now, but fortunately, he had prepared an invitation letter in advance.

   In any case, Penrose Fell will not succeed.

  ‘Just in this way, Rhine will leave Storm Island.

   I just don’t know how fate will arrange for him to find Faranell’s notes and solve the mystery of being promoted to a demigod. '

   Kestrel has his doubts about prophecy and fate as a bystander, and Li Feng also has his own things to consider.

  Reject the governor with an invitation letter from the Earthen Ring.

  However, according to the law, after joining the Ring of the Earth, one must immediately leave the original island.

   In this way, if he leaves Storm Island, he will not be able to go to Wood County to investigate Faraniel's old affairs.

  However, as a hidden person and a time traveler, it is difficult to investigate secretly, but it is not impossible.

  Besides, he won't have any loss by joining the Ring of the Earth, on the contrary, he will have many benefits.

  So, why not do it.

  Responding to the governor's hypocrisy and virtuous corporal, Li Feng raised his hand, trying to take out the invitation letter from Kestrel from the inner pocket of his jacket.

   But just before he raised his hand, a person suddenly strode into the entrance of the hall behind him.

  Hearing the sound of footsteps coming straight, Governor Fell, Li Feng, Kestrel, and the nobles in the Eye of the Storm Hall all looked towards the door.

  At this moment, a messenger wearing light soft leather armor with the logo of the giant sea beast embroidered on the leather armor walked in with his head held high.

  He actually didn't ask the attendant to inform him, nor did he wait for the governor to summon him, so he walked to the center of the hall with his head held high and his chest held high.

   In the endless sea, the courier is by no means an important role, but the courier in front of him is different.

  He walked directly into the hall in such a rude manner, but all the nobles, even Governor Fell, dared not blame him.

   All this is because of a ferocious sea monster logo with nine heads embroidered on his soft armor, which represents the king.

  He is the king's messenger.

'what? King's messenger? '

  On the second floor on both sides of the Eye of the Storm hall, Shia hid in the dark and looked at the center of the hall.

  She rushed all the way and arrived in time, but just when she was about to stop all this with the result of divination, the king's messenger unexpectedly arrived.

  Shea didn't know why.

   But the next moment.

  She saw the king's messenger take out the kingdom's writ and read it aloud to everyone present.

  To everyone's surprise, the king's warrant was not for the governor, but for Li Feng.

  The content of the writ is not much, only a short ten sentences.

   After the messenger read out loudly, these ten sentences echoed in the towering and brilliant Hall of the Eye of the Storm, and at the same time completely stirred up the storm.

  When she heard the words "a free man before the Sea Throne" in the writ, Shia couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise.

  The nobles in the downstairs hall reacted the same as hers, and even went too far.

  Some of them peeked at each other, and some were so shocked that they forgot to breathe.

  At this moment, even the governor standing on the high platform was stunned for a moment.

  So that, after the messenger finished reading, the entire Hall of the Eye of the Storm could hear the sound of a needle falling quietly.

  As for Li Feng, the person involved, he was also stunned, completely unaware of how this unfolded.

   Just now, in the sound of the messenger's reading, Li Feng learned that he was conferred by the king as "the free man before the Sea Throne".

  The Free Man in front of the Sea Throne is an honorary title of the Endless Sea, which is awarded directly by the king.

   Simply put, it is within the entire territory ruled by the king.

  People with this title do not need to pay taxes, do not have to serve in the military, are not subject to any organization, and are not under the jurisdiction of any individual. They are only responsible to the king and have extremely high freedom rights.

  ‘This... sounds like a good thing, but why would the king do this? '

   Li Feng was puzzled, he secretly glanced at the Kestrel.

  Seeing that Kestrel also has a surprised expression at the moment, but compared with the governor and those nobles, it is much better.

   Apparently Kestrel knew about it.

  Although I don't know what the kestrel's intention is, it must have something to do with the Ring of the Earth.

  Everyone has a lot of thoughts, but in fact there is only a moment.

  At this time, one of the two attendants who came with the messenger was holding a brocade box.

   And in the brocade box is a piece carved from pure gold, the emblem of the nine-headed sea beast.

  This emblem is only half the size of a palm, with a slender needle on the back.

  At this time, another attendant took the nine-headed sea beast emblem out of the brocade box, and then he stepped forward and solemnly put the emblem on the left side of Li Feng's jacket.

   After watching the attendants finish all this, the messenger handed over the king's writ made of brocade thread and thick velvet to Li Feng.

   Afterwards, the messenger first congratulated Li Feng, saluted the Governor, and left the hall with his attendants.

  Messengers came and went like the wind. Except for the nine-headed sea beast emblem on Li Feng's clothes and the king's warrant in his hand, the entire Hall of the Eye of the Storm remained unchanged from before.

  The governor was still standing in front of his throne on the high platform, still maintaining the posture when he asked Li Feng if he wanted to join the navy.

  But the governor now knows that he can't control this young man at all.

  The free man in front of the Sea Throne, that is, even if he goes to the king's hall of nobility, he must have a place.

   is someone who can ignore the authority of any noble except the king.

  Not to mention throwing him to the navy, even killing him secretly now, I have to weigh it carefully.

   After all, a person whose king was personally canonized died in his own territory, which undoubtedly has to be explained to the king.

  Looking deeply at Li Feng in the audience, the powerful smile on the governor's face has long since disappeared.

  Why the king did this, he still needs to inquire carefully, but now, he can't manipulate him at will anyway.

  For this young man, his plan had to be changed again.

  While hiding in the corner of the second floor, Xia, who was observing secretly, understood clearly:

  'No wonder he didn't run away, it turns out that the backhand is here, it really made me worry for nothing. '

  Although she didn't know the king's intention, and how Li Feng did it.

   But looking at the surprised, worried, envious, and jealous expressions of those nobles.

   and Penrose Fell's miscalculation, Shia was really happy.

  In short, Li Feng is out of trouble now, and Xiya was glad that she didn't have to reveal her embarrassing identity, so she quietly left through the small door behind her.

   There was silence for a few seconds, and the Eye of the Storm Hall, which hadn't recovered from the shock, suddenly heard a thick voice from above.

   "It's really impressive for me to be appreciated by the king at a young age."

  Governor Penrose Fell changed into a face of praising the younger generation at this time, and said to Li Feng with a smile.

   Already having the status of a free man proclaimed by the king, Li Feng no longer needs to take out the invitation letter from the Ring of the Earth from Kestrel.

   In the endless sea, he now has absolute freedom.

  Probably because the situation has been decided, Governor Fell has no intention of keeping Li Fenghong Falcon in Storm's End.

  After exchanging a few more pleasantries, they announced the end of today's discussion, and asked Knight Commander Lannis to send Li Feng and Kestrel away.

   Lannis naturally obeyed the order and politely led the way for the two.

   But when they passed through the arched hall, covered bridge, and walked through the wide square in front of the castle, they came to the main gate of the outer wall of the castle.

   Kestrel stopped suddenly and stopped following Lannis to the side door.

  Although Li Feng didn't understand why, he followed the kestrel and stopped.

   "You two, what's the matter?"

   Seeing that the people behind him did not leave, Knight Commander Lannis asked strangely.

   "Ha, Lannis, it is really inappropriate to let the free man in front of the Sea Throne appointed by the king go through the side door?"

  Looking at Lannis, Kestrel smiled heartily, and there was a flash of light in his eyes.

   "Ah yes! I was negligent and rude, and I hope Mr. Rhine will forgive me."

   Lannis didn't have any excuses, he apologized very respectfully, and then he yelled at the soldiers guarding the main gate of Storm's End:

   "On duty to listen to the order, put down the drawbridge, and open the city gate!"

   "Boom—boom—boom—"

  With the ringing of a bell, the creaking of a thick bronze door, and the rattling of a huge iron chain, the main gate of Storm's End opened.

   Seeing that the road ahead was clear, Lannis turned around and said respectfully to Li Feng:

   "Mr. Rhine, please."

  The bell ringing to open the main gate of the castle was long and long, and it echoed throughout Storm's End.

  At this time, Governor Fell, who was descending the long steps, paused slightly when he heard the bell.

  He narrowed his eyes and looked towards the main entrance. After a second, he retracted his gaze and quickened his pace, continuing to climb down the stairs.

  He walked briskly for a while, and finally stopped in front of a small door.

   Push the door and enter. Behind the door is a room with candles everywhere.

  Looking at the person sitting in front of the candlestick, the governor said directly to him without any greetings:

   "Find those two traitors for me as quickly as possible."

   Labor Day is two days away (∞)
