Chapter 333: Chicken Thief
The process of great-grandfather Ulysses bringing Sean to know these knights was actually the process of Sean expanding his network of contacts.
Although Sean's temperament gave people a low-key and indifferent impression.
In fact, whether Sean intended it or not, he had met many high-level magicians and knights above level one so far.
Personality factors would not affect Sean's judgment.
This is a magician who knows the pros and cons and is very good at judging the situation.
For example, at this time, Sean obviously didn't like to deal with these rough-looking first-level knights too intimately.
But Sean knew that making friends with these knights was beneficial to him and the Grant family, so Sean still patiently talked to them one by one.
And not all knights are as powerful as the third-level knight Snape and understand the art of dialogue.
Many knights spoke in a very vulgar manner. Through the quiet mental transmission of his great-grandfather Ulysses beside him, Sean knew that among the more than 200 knights above level one who were visiting in person, nearly two-thirds were ordinary knights who rose from common people.
Their ancestors were ordinary commoners, and they grew up to become the first generation of nobles through fighting, with a life level as high as level one and a life span of nearly a thousand years.
Sean's great-grandfather Ulysses can also be called the first generation of nobles.
Don't look at Sean's great-grandfather Ulysses, who is usually taciturn and looks like a very cultivated noble.
In fact, looking at what kind of stuff his mount, the Reverse Feather Lion King, is, you can roughly know what the temperament of great-grandfather Ulysses was like back then.
Some things cannot be changed from the bottom of your heart, because they have adapted to their own style and principles.
Only the descendants of nobles like old Grant and Jeramy will be influenced by the noble cultivation they have cultivated since childhood.
Many knights speak too directly. For example, a first-level knight felt very good about himself after talking with Sean. He asked Sean directly if he could help his granddaughter to study in the Azure Source Holy Tower.
When Sean replied that he had to abide by the Holy Tower's admission regulations and take an entrance test before making a decision, the first-level knight didn't care much.
Instead, he asked Sean another embarrassing question: "Can my granddaughter directly worship you as her master?"
"I know that you magicians care about this kind of master-disciple relationship. My granddaughter is very smart." The first-level knight said bluntly.
This first-level knight is also a cunning one. Sean is the disciple of the master of the Azure Source Holy Tower. His granddaughter became Sean's disciple. Isn't she the granddaughter of the master?
Although the other first-level knights at the banquet were talking to each other, they were also paying attention to the situation here.
When the first-level knight said this, many people lowered their voices and looked over here.
Including the third-level knight Snape, he also looked over, and seemed to want to see how Sean would answer.
The question from the first-level knight named Rose made Sean's mouth twitch.
He had never even seen the other party's granddaughter, and he didn't know how old she was. How could he blindly accept her as a disciple just because she was "smart"?
Sean refused directly and said, "I don't have the idea of accepting a disciple for the time being."
"Okay." The knight with a beard sighed regretfully.
But then, he turned his eyes and suddenly asked, "Master Sean, are you married?"
Sean: "..."
...
In short, among the more than 200 knights invited by great-grandfather Ulysses and others to the banquet, there are indeed some strange ones.
But Sean generally feels that these are actually easy to get along with, and basically have no bad intentions.
Including Sean, he talked for a while with a second-level knight from his stepmother, Lady Tia's family. The second-level knight mentioned that the Kingdom of West France also wanted to send some royal and noble children to study at the Holy Tower of Azure Source.
The Kingdom of West France seemed to be beyond the territory of the Holy Tower of Azure Source, but it seemed to be still in it.
Sean had no experience with the recruitment of students for the Holy Tower, but he did not expect that a trip back to the Lycian Alliance would bring so much business to the recruitment of apprentices for the Holy Tower of Azure Source.
The reason for this is that, on the one hand, this place was originally located at the edge of the Holy Tower of Azure Source's power area, and it was not the focus of the Holy Tower's recruitment of apprentices in previous years.
On the other hand, these knights probably heard that the Holy Tower of Azure Source had just ended a plane war.
Don't think too simply of the knights.
Just like the first-level knight named Rose, although he looks like a straightforward and simple man, he actually thinks a lot.
After communicating with all the knights, Sean finally breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the castle to rest. Those energetic knights were still eating and drinking on the lawn. They did not need to focus on the exploration of knowledge and truth in the laboratory like magicians.
From some perspectives, knights do live a more comfortable life than magicians.
Compared with the truth and mystery that they cannot understand, the knights of the wizard world generally focus on enjoyment before the war comes.
Of course, this also caused the status of knights in the wizard world. No matter how many rounds of changes they have gone through, there is still a certain gap between them and magicians.
As the saying goes, you will get as much as you give.
The magicians in the wizard world give more and have greater power.
And in many aspects: such as resources, rights, and discourse power, etc., they all constrain the knights.
Therefore, the wizard world has always been a wizard world, and has not become a knight world.
According to the supply and demand relationship, the first-level magician can have an equal dialogue with the second-level knight.
Because the first-level magician can make the potions, equipment, etc. that the second-level knights urgently need.
However, the second-level knights can only rely on their powerful strength to help these magicians in the field of raw materials, and cannot form a monopoly.
Yes, "monopoly"!
Think about everything in the wizard world, whether it is a space fortress, a war airship, or a relatively low-end airship, and almost all alchemical magic devices, magic potions, etc.
It seems that they are all from the hands of magicians, and the knight group just enjoys the ready-made ones!
This monopoly situation has further strengthened the voice of the wizard world magician group.
So much so that there are many knight masters with amazing strength in the wizard world, and even several of them are not much less than the most powerful true spirit magicians in the wizard world.
But in many major decision-making areas, magicians still dominate.
As a vested interest class at this time, Sean also clearly felt the difference between knights and magicians.
However, he had not yet cooperated with these knights in the plane war, so he was not quite sure how the knights and magicians interacted with each other during the war.
It seemed that one of the main responsibilities of the knights was to protect the magician army to ensure the magician army's advantage in long-range bombing against hostile creatures.
