The Knight's Journey to the Empire

But in fact, the reason why Lord Fatis chose to bring up the matter of "Doug Johnson's refusal to become his apprentice" at this time was not really for Doug Johnson, but to test Soran's character.

Because Lord Fatis had naturally heard about the "special relationship" between Soran and his own Lord Earl.

Although his status with Countess Curtis was not as high as Sir Colbert's.

But Lord Fatis is also someone who can influence Countess Katis's final decision.

So by doing this, he is actually paving the way for his future.

The first is that he wanted to take Doug Johnson as his apprentice. Doug Johnson has extraordinary talents, which is certainly an important reason, but he also wants to make friends with Sauron.

After all, since Sauron can let Doug Johnson lead the troops to the battlefield instead of him, it is enough to show how much he values ​​Doug Johnson.

Secondly, Lord Fatis knew Doug Johnson's identity, but he did this without Soren's permission.

Therefore, even though he is a powerful upper-level knight, it does mean that he is "stealing someone else's girlfriend".

Therefore, after he explained this matter to Sauron, if Sauron chose to hold on to it and make a fuss about it, it would prove that Sauron was a narrow-minded, petty and arrogant person.

As for such a person, Lord Fatis would naturally not choose to make close friends with him. He might even have to stay away from him to avoid being entangled!

In this way, the matter of Doug Johnson becoming his apprentice will just come to nothing!

And Soran's reaction now was exactly what Lord Fatis expected.

Regardless of whether he acted this way due to the situation or his strength, just from his reasonable and measured appearance, we can tell that he is a person who knows the times and knows how to advance and retreat.

And it is precisely people like this that Lord Fatis feels are worth associating with and worth making close friends with.

Otherwise, Sauron might have been blasted out by the other party.

……

"Viscount Soran, I heard from Plant that when he was forming a new navy under the order of the Earl, he asked you for many guiding opinions on naval construction!"

"And in the process of forming the navy, he also implemented these opinions on the naval forces, and achieved good results!"

At this point, Lord Fatis suddenly changed his tone and asked in a questioning tone: "So, Viscount Soran, Plant and Redsas also took you around the [Navy Training Camp] today!

"So do you have any good suggestions for the Navy or the [Navy Training Camp]?"

"Of course, if there are any areas where we haven't done well, you can also point them out! After all, we are all working hard for the future of the [Anglican Islands], so it is best to encourage and improve together!"

Lord Fatis' words, relative to the strength and status of this great knight, are truly a model of humility and respect for the wise!

So from this we can see that his attitude towards Sauron, or his first impression of him, is very good.

Because he has already placed Sauron on the same level as himself.

And facing Lord Fatis's goodwill, Soran would naturally not be ungrateful.

So he also said humbly: "My Lord, to be honest! My understanding of naval construction is really not deep!"

"Because what I said to the Plant brothers at the beginning were just some ideas that came to my mind after I thought of the [Angliss Immigration Plan]!"

"And now, Plant and Redsas have applied these ideas to naval training, and have achieved good results! Then I have nothing to mention!"

This is not because Soran is being modest, but his level is just half-baked.

If it weren't for his vision and pattern, which were superior to ordinary people due to his memories of his past life, he might be even worse than Plant and the others.

Therefore, with the current progress of the construction of this naval force, if they want to achieve better development in the future, they can only rely on themselves to explore their own path.

Anyway, Soran had no other suggestions except for installing sails, catapults or cannons on the ship, which were not suitable for the time being.

As for why Soran didn't mention it at this time, it was mainly because he thought the timing was not right!

Moreover, with the current technological level of the Knight Continent, even if some suggestions are put forward to them, they will not be able to implement them!

"Is it really gone?" Lord Fatis asked with some regret.

Lord Fatis is also a responsible person when it comes to his work!

Therefore, after Countess Katis gave him the task of "building the navy", he set the goal of "strengthening the navy" as his work orientation.

However, during this period of time, he had been thinking hard for several days and had held several discussion meetings with Lord Utred, Plant, Redsas, as well as Canard and Aldrich, but he had not found any new ways to promote the development of the navy.

Yesterday, Lord Fatis heard someone report that Soran would come to visit the [Navy Training Camp] today, and he was very happy.

Because he knew that Soran had made an indelible contribution to the construction of the navy!

So I thought that the other party could make more suggestions today to promote the construction of the naval forces.

But now...Alas!
