"Take a closer look, there are really many people attending the year-end dinner."

Su Cheng used a common fork to fork several pieces of meat into his plate while chatting to Eliza.

"OK, compared with the past, the number of people this year is relatively small." After swallowing the meat in her mouth, Eliza continued, "there are an average of 600 to 700 guests at the year-end dinner every year, but only more than 500 this year, so this year is a relatively few people."

"Huh? Why is there so much less this year? Is it that Wen Chen and knights suck up this year? So the number of invitations this year is much less than before?

"That's not true. In fact, the number of meritorious heroes who receive invitations every year is very stable. The reason why there are so few guests this year seems to be that many nobles did not come to attend. After all, not all nobles are interested in this year-end dinner, especially some nobles living in remote areas. It takes more than a month for some nobles to come to Pendragon, that is, it takes more than two months for them to go back and forth. Therefore, for these nobles, they come to the year-end dinner, It's a time-consuming and laborious thing. "

"Oh, well."

Su Cheng forked a piece of meat that had just been put into his plate with his fork. He was about to put it into his mouth——

"That's right." Su Cheng stopped and said, "Eliza, where's your father, Mr. Iser? Why haven't you seen him? "

"My father, after he came to the meeting with me, I separated from him. I don't know where he is now. He should also be very busy now. After all, he is an integration knight and the head of the Gabriel knights. Many people will come to him to drink and chat... "

Speaking of this, Eliza paused, then showed an expression like thinking of something, and then continued:

"Yes, I almost forgot. A big man I haven't seen for a long time came to the year-end dinner tonight."

"Big man? What big man? " Su Cheng wondered.

"Well, yes, big man." Eliza nodded, "Su Cheng, you need to know him. After all, you are also a knight. As a knight of the Britannia Empire, it is necessary to know all the high-ranking Knights of the Empire. I'll take you to find him later. I can say hello to him by the way. After all, I haven't seen him for a long time."

"Senior Knight... Which four Royal Knights are you?"

As Su Cheng spoke, he went over the list of the four Royal Knights of the British Empire in his mind.

There were only a few of the four Royal Knights of the Britannia Empire, which was not so difficult to remember, so Su Cheng remembered the names of the four Royal Knights of the Britannia Empire in his mind early.

"Hum, this big man is not as simple as the four Royal Knights." Eliza smiled mysteriously and continued, "this great man is Albert Evans, the head of the Rachel knights."

"... this big man is really big enough."

Albert Evans. Su Cheng's name is naturally thunderous.

Albert Evans, head of the Rachel order of the three Knights of the British Empire, holds the 200000 troops of the Rachel order.

If Iser, as an integrated knight and the order of Gabriel, is the first knight of the British Empire, Albert is the second Knight of the British Empire.

Among knights, Albert's position is second only to Iser.

In fact, the three major Knights of the British Empire - the Michael knights, the Gabriel knights and the Rachel knights are responsible for different lines of defense.

The Michael Knights stationed in the north of the Empire, responsible for the northern defense line and defending the holy Hiram empire in the north.

The Knights of Gabriel were stationed in the east of the Empire, responsible for the eastern defense line and defending the Frankish empire in the East. The eastern part of the British Empire was also bordered by many small countries, so the Gabriel knights were responsible for defending these other small countries in addition to the Frankish empire.

The Rachel knights were stationed in the south of the Empire, responsible for the southern defense line and defending the Lorraine empire in the south.

The west of the empire is close to the sea, so it is very safe in the West. With the convenience of this place, the British Empire only needs to be responsible for the enemies in the north, East and south directions.

In fact, the Empire would not put all the troops of the knights on the frontier front.

At present, the cavalry of Gabriel has nearly 300000 troops, but only about 150000 troops are stationed in the eastern defense line, and the other half are stationed in the capital pandragon.

The same is true of the Rachel knights. Although the Rachel Knights have 200000 troops, at present, only 100000 troops are stationed in the southern defense line, and the other 100000 are also stationed in the capital pandragon.

These Knights stationed around the imperial capital are responsible for guarding the imperial capital and are used as "mobile forces", in short, as "fire brigades".

When the pressure on the defense line suddenly increases and the small country suddenly starts to make trouble, send some Knights stationed in the imperial capital, that is, the "mobile forces" to relieve the pressure on the defense line or teach those small countries a lesson..

Not long ago, the 100000 soldiers of the Gabriel knights who participated in the rescue war of Lund kingdom were the "mobile forces" stationed in pandragon.

The rescue war of Lund kingdom is also a very typical case of the Empire sending "mobile forces" to teach small countries that make trouble.

The Michael order is now in a special situation.

Michael's knights do not have any troops stationed in the imperial capital.

Because if the cavalry of Michael sent troops to garrison in the imperial capital, there would be no one in the northern defense line.

A year ago, the holy Hiram Empire sent 200000 troops south to attack the Britannia Empire, which was bravely met by the Michael Knights responsible for defending the holy Hiram empire.

The imperial capital, which received the news of the invasion of the holy Hiram Empire to the south, also rushed to send all the forces of the Michael Knights originally stationed in the imperial capital to support the Northern Line of defense.

The British Empire called this war "the North defense battle in 288"

This "288 year defense battle against the north" lasted for four months and was extremely tragic.

Although the Michael Knights finally succeeded in resisting the invasion of the Holy Hiran Empire and forced the Holy Hiran Empire and the britannian Empire to sign a truce treaty, there were only tens of thousands of people left in the Michael knights with nearly 200000 troops, and the head and deputy head of the Michael Knights died in the war.

It can be said that the order of Michael has been disabled.

Also after this war, the order of Michael lost the title of "the strongest Knight of the Empire", which was taken away by the order of Gabriel until now.

There are only tens of thousands of Michael Knights left. If another part is stationed in the imperial capital, there will be no troops in the northern defense line.

Therefore, since the "288 defense battle against the north", the Empire has stationed the remaining troops of the Michael knights in the northern defense line, so there is no need to send troops to garrison in the imperial capital.

Therefore, since the "defense against the north in 288", the only troops stationed in pandragon are the Knights of Gabriel and Rachel.

Originally, the head of the Michael knights who died in the "288 defense against the north" was also a very strong knight.

There has always been a discussion about Albert, the head of the Rachel knights, and the head of the Michael knights, who is the second Knight of the British Empire.

Unfortunately, this discussion ended after the "288 defense operation against the north".

Because after this war, the head of Michael's knights died.

After his death, the title of the second Knight of the Empire was naturally taken over by Albert Evans, the head of the Rachel knights.

Albert's name was very famous not only in the britannian Empire, but also in the Lorraine empire in the south.

The Rachel knights were stationed in the South and were specially responsible for defending the Lorraine Empire, which had always been the imaginary enemy of the Rachel knights.

Therefore, since Albert became the head of the Rachel knights, he basically fought against the Lorraine empire.

Over the years, the focus of the British Empire has been on the South and East.

Therefore, in recent years, the British Empire launched five large-scale attacks against the Lorraine empire.

These five large-scale attacks, of course, were mainly attacked by the Rachel knights who were specially responsible for dealing with the Lorraine empire.

In these five large-scale attacks on the Lorraine Empire, Albert was very active. Albert served as the General Commander of these five attacks on the Lorraine empire.

In these five attacks on the Lorraine Empire, Albert achieved excellent results of 2 big victories, 1 small victory, 1 draw and 1 small loss.

Therefore, Albert's name gradually became the fear of the soldiers of the Lorraine empire.

Many soldiers of the Lorraine Empire trembled when they heard the name Albert.

Su Cheng wanted to know such a big man for a long time.

However, in July this year, Albert's old injury recurred, so he has been recuperating at home. He can't come to important meetings such as the "big meeting".

Therefore, since Su Cheng became a knight in September, he has not seen the big man.

"Eliza." Su Cheng asked Eliza, "has Mr. Albert recovered from his old injury?"

"Well, I finally rested a few days ago and recovered just before the year-end dinner, so Mr. Albert also attended the year-end dinner tonight."

"Well." Su Cheng nodded and said with a smile, "I really need to get to know such a big man. Later, Eliza, take me to find Mr. Albert. After all, I only know his name and don't know his appearance."

Su Cheng had long wanted to know the second Knight of the Empire who frightened the soldiers of the Lorraine empire.

"Yes, but..."

Speaking of this, Eliza's expression suddenly became strange.

"Su Cheng, I advise you to do some psychological preparation first."

"Huh? Psychological preparation? " Su Cheng looked puzzled, "what psychological preparation?"

"... you don't know Mr. Albert, so you don't know him." Eliza's expression became more and more strange. "Mr. Albert is a... Um... Very personality person. So before you meet him, you'd better make some psychological preparations. After all, Mr. Albert, he has some differences with his legendary heroes... "

After hearing Eliza's words, Su Cheng was stunned. Then he couldn't help swallowing his saliva and said in his heart:

In the end, how many personality people can let others warn others to be psychologically prepared when they know him

In Su Cheng's heart, he couldn't help looking forward to the leader of the Rachel knights, and wanted to see what kind of person the second Knight of the Empire was

"Well! I'm ready! Eliza. " Su Cheng solemnly nodded, "now take me to find Mr. Albert!"

"Just be prepared..."

Eliza sighed, then went on:

"It's not urgent to find Mr. Albert. Anyway, the venue is so big and the people are so big. It's still very early from the end of the party. We can find it slowly."

"Before I go to find him, I want to make it convenient..."

After that, Eliza blushed slightly and sandwiched her legs.

"I seem to have drunk too much wine and juice..." Eliza whispered.

"Ah, well, Eliza, go quickly."

As Su Cheng spoke, he took Eliza's knife, fork and plate.

"I'll wait for you in place."

"Well, OK. I'll be back soon. "

After giving Su Cheng all her tableware, Eliza took her skirt and walked quickly to the outside of the meeting.

However, after Eliza took a few quick steps away, she suddenly stopped.

"Hello! Su Cheng! " Eliza turned her head and shouted to Su Cheng, "don't do strange things to my tableware, especially my fork, when it's convenient for me to go!"

"I won't do it!" Su Cheng shouted angrily, "I wouldn't do such a perverse thing!"

"Um..."

Eliza looked at Su Cheng with suspicious eyes, then withdrew her eyes, then picked up her skirt again and walked quickly to the outside of the meeting.

After watching Eliza leave, Su Cheng took back his eyes and looked down.

——Looking at the tableware Eliza used in her hand.

This is... The fork Eliza used

——Su Cheng thought as he looked at Eliza's fork.
