Chapter 457: Chapter 184: War Reparations and the Sky Griffin Knight Order!_4

The Empire’s griffins are trained to join battles with their riders, and their dedication to their riders reaches an incredible level, with many Electors considering these fierce beasts as loyal companions.

It can be said that within the Empire, apart from the Emperor and the Electors, not many forces can form a griffin cavalry.

For the Dukes, even a half-griffin cavalry unit is enough to be a source of pride.

And these elite griffin cavaliers of the Empire are always regarded by the Electors as top-secret, rarely stepping onto the battlefield, so hardly anyone knows the name of the Empire’s Griffin Knight Order. Instead, it is the High Elf Tar Ghevor Knights who, as griffin knights of considerable scale, often are active on the battlefield and have almost become the emblem of the strongest cavalry in the Old Continent.

Until today, Su Li never dared imagine that he could actually establish a powerful knight order composed of Griffin Knights!

Once this news gets out, not to mention the Counts and Dukes, even some Electors would become fervently excited!

Hilude smiled and nodded, saying to Su Li, ”That’s right, this is one of the treasures sealed with magic power by the Giant Dragon, and it’s said that it wasn’t even the wealth acquired by the Green Dragon itself but left to it by her father.”

”However, no matter what, our urgent task is to quickly find an owner for these three tiger-striped griffin eggs. Due to the griffins’ unbelievable loyalty, once they recognize an owner, they will hardly acknowledge another as their master. This can deter many ambitious individuals from coveting these three griffin eggs.”

Exactly!

Exactly!

Su Li nodded repeatedly; griffins are noble creatures, possessing a type of integrity that serves only one master.

A griffin egg may be coveted by many, leading to enmity or even the destruction and plunder by armies.

However, once a griffin is successfully hatched, most people can only regretfully sigh.

Yet, this is not entirely safe; some domineering and cruel Lords might force its knight owner to continue serving him, riding the griffin.

The likelihood of such an occurrence is relatively low; the greatest allure for the nobles is the prestige and honor of having a griffin as an advanced mount. Once in the hands of other knights, its value greatly diminishes. It might not be worth it for many powerful nobles to mobilize forces and travel all the way to the Border Prince’s Territory for a Champion Knight.

Su Li immediately said, ”I’ll leave two of the griffin eggs to you and Knight Oerstein, and I’ll think about who to give the last one to. This is the best opportunity to unite people and win over knights.”

A griffin, once reaching adulthood, can accompany its owner for at least 5 to 7 years. This is not because their lifespan is like that of an insect; in fact, griffins growing in natural environments can live to 70 to 80 years, and even longer under human care.

However, few griffins die of natural causes because of their combative nature and frequent participation in fights, most of them will die in conflict or war.

Su Li just hopes he won’t end up with a souvenir mural of the Six Steeds of Zhaoling. As a war mount, the probability of death is even higher than that of the knight. ”First shoot the horse,” is a principle everyone knows.

Anyway, after this war, Su Li’s interest in personally going to the battlefield has waned even more, preferring to focus peacefully on farming, which can also ensure Death’s Claw lives for a century more.

Then, with the fervent gazes of surrounding knights, Su Li quickly put away the remaining griffin egg and asked Hilude, ”Are there any other precious treasures?”
