Under everyone's gaze.
A figure walked into the palace.
"Commoners?"
"How can there be civilians in this place!”
"Who let him in?"
They were dressed simply and did not have the bearing of a noble.
He had an arrogant posture, and as he walked, he looked like a king who looked down on all living beings.
Such an arrogant and rude person simply did not have the most basic etiquette among nobles.
All the nobles couldn't help but frown when they saw Rhode walk in.
His eyes were filled with disgust and rejection.
Only the Earl, who was sitting at the head of the table, stood up excitedly.
Like a little fanboy, he walked to the palace entrance and personally welcomed Rhode.
The Earl stood up to welcome them, so the other nobles did not dare to sit in their seats.
One by one, they stood up and followed behind the earl to welcome the commoner who was of a lowly status in their eyes.
All of them were filled with doubts.
Why would the Earl welcome a commoner so solemnly?
Ignoring the strange gazes behind him, Count Francis walked up to him and performed a standard imperial etiquette.
In the Shenluo Empire, most of the nobles were believers of the God of Brilliance, and they usually greeted each other with church etiquette.
However, the Legendary powerhouse in front of him was obviously not a believer of the God of Brilliance.
Francis didn't find it strange.
After all, even nobles like them were only shallow believers.
He was shouting for the God of Light.
Occasionally, he would donate some gold coins to the church, and his heart would bleed.
"Esteemed Legendary-mage, the king of the Francis Kingdom, on behalf of the entire Francis Kingdom, thanks you for your assistance!”
This simple sentence stunned the group of nobles behind him.
Legend?
Mage?
Either of these two words symbolized noble status and identity.
If he added the word legendary to the foundation of a mage, he would be able to use the word legendary.
That was not something that could be described as pure nobility.
Such a person was an existence that could be counted on one's fingers even in a place like the Imperial City where powerhouses were as common as clouds.
Their status was comparable to the few dukes and nobles in the empire!
Even the Emperor of Shenluo Empire had to treat such a big shot with respect.
These low-level nobles who were not even counts were nothing in front of a Legendary-mage.
What Jill!
If a Legend was angered, no one would say anything even if he was crushed to death on the spot.
Legends could not be humiliated!
As long as they were not nobles with territories and kingdoms above the count level.
The Shenluo Empire would never punish a Legendary powerhouse for a few low-level nobles.
Even if they were to exterminate an Earl, as long as there was a reasonable explanation and reason, it would be a small matter.
Was he really going to execute a Legendary-mage who was more precious than a giant panda for the sake of tens of thousands of ordinary people?
From the perspective of the Empire, not to mention tens of thousands of civilians and nobles.
Even a dozen commoners and nobles could not compare to the value of a Legendary-mage.
Every Legendary-mage was a strategic weapon for the Empire to intimidate the other three Empires.
Its status was comparable to nuclear weapons in the technological era.
Nuclear weapons could be mass-produced, but the number of Legendary-mages was limited.
One less person was a huge loss.
The status of a Legendary-mage was not something that small nobles like them could challenge.
Francis brought Rhode to the main seat.
Rhode sat on the main seat while Count Francis sat on the secondary seat beside him.
According to the etiquette of the Shenluo Empire, those who could sit on the main seat were usually the most respected people.
If the guest and the host were of equal status, the host would naturally sit in the main seat.
However, in front of a Legendary-mage, he should not show off his insignificant status as an Earl of the Empire.
Even if this was his kingdom and castle, it was not his turn to sit on the main seat.
After Rhode took his seat, the banquet with him as the main character naturally began.
A banquet specially prepared by Count Francis would naturally not be too low-class.
Although he wasn't used to eating Western food, the taste of the top-grade ingredients was excellent, so he ate happily.
As for the group of nobles, they were very reserved.
Almost all of them only dared to eat what was in front of them, and they only tasted it.
Rhode lost his appetite.
After the banquet ended, it was time for the most crucial part.
"Forget about the formalities. Let's get straight to the point. What's the second test?”
Rhode wiped his mouth with a napkin and said casually.
Count Francis did not take his words to heart.
Legendary powerhouses all had their own personalities, and there were many who had worse personalities than this one.
In comparison, this Legendary-mage's temper was considered mild.
" Sir Rhode, this second test shouldn't be too difficult for you.”
Count Francis said with a smile.
"A few months ago, a group of trolls appeared at the border of the kingdom and blocked the largest trade route of the Francis Kingdom. The second test is to eliminate these trolls.”
"Oh right, there's a Troll leader among these Trolls whose strength is close to the Legendary stage.”
Giant demons?
Rhode was intrigued.
The Giant Demon Clan was a relatively large clan.
Its origin could even be traced back to the legendary Titan race.
To be more precise, the trolls were the descendants of the titans, the giants. They were mixed-blood demons born from the combination of other creatures.
However, this race was a little mixed.
Forest Troll, Mountain Troll, One-eyed Troll, Dark Troll, Ice Troll, Ancient Troll
If there weren't a hundred, there were at least seventy to eighty types.
The races were diverse, second only to the orcs, which had hundreds of races.
However, considering that the Giant Demon Clan's father was a Giant Clan, it was not unacceptable.
The Titans were the first living beings in the world. They were born in chaos and were born with the power of laws and the mysterious power of chaos.
They were one of the few ancient races that could become gods without faith.
They were also known as ancient gods.
The Titan race did not have a distinction between good and evil or gender. Most of them did not even have a fixed form. They were more like an embodiment of a law.
Therefore, as the descendants of the Titan Race, the Giant Race had always had strange shapes, such as Mountain Giants, Frost Giants, Hecatoncheir Giants, Cyclops Giants...
Some deformed giants were even as beautiful as evil gods.
As the descendants of the ancient gods, the giants were naturally not weak.
Powerful giants could reach the level of a top-tier demigod.
Even the weaker giants had at least Legendary strength.
Moreover, the giants could mate with any creature or even the environment to give birth to offspring.
Some giants had combined with the forest, giving birth to forest trolls.
When combined with the Mountain Qi, a Mountain Troll would be born.
There were even storm trolls born from the combination of lightning.
The Storm Trolls had Legendary combat power when they matured.
Their strength could even be comparable to the dragon race.
However, they were quite rare and had not appeared for hundreds of years.
Trolls of different races had completely different living habits and would even fight each other.
What kind of trolls were these in the Francis Kingdom?
