Chapter 493 Unparalleled Honor

Chapter 493 Unparalleled Honor

Daggett Wuhen's opening speech continued: "My honor is not only to be able to stand in front of adventurers from the entire continent, nor to be able to see so many extremely prestigious figures."

"My honor is because I am sure that this moment will be engraved in the history of Faerun. I am sure that everything that happened today will be sung by countless bards and spread to every corner of Faerun. If all the bards here are willing."

He made a joke, and there was a burst of laughter in the square.

Unlike in the past, Daggett Wujin didn't make a long speech. After saying a few words, he changed the topic: "Next, let me introduce the main judge of the Legendary Awards Ceremony—Ms. Trixie."

"Tracey?" A caster who was sitting below and waiting frowned: "This name sounds familiar."

A wanderer next to him turned away and whispered: "A member of the team that stopped the demon invasion before."

The caster suddenly realized: "It's actually her. I was still wondering why I didn't meet the dwarf Barn and his team members at the award ceremony this time. I didn't expect that they had already participated in the award ceremony."

He looked at the wanderer and said, "Sorry, I haven't introduced myself—"

"The famous legendary mage Martinus Rutledge." The rogue spoke before him: "You don't need to introduce yourself at all. I think there will be very few people here who don't know you."

The caster smiled politely and said: "Your Excellency is too exaggerated. I haven't left my mage tower for more than ten years. I am ashamed to say that people like me should not have come to participate in this kind of ceremony." , Competing with young people for opportunities, but I really want to come to the scene to communicate with everyone.”

He paused for a moment, showing an embarrassed expression: "I'm old and talk a lot. I'm really too powerful. May I ask your name?"

"Brasi Mayiga," the wanderer said without hesitation.

"Mayiga dancing with the silver dragon?" Martinus Rutledge showed an unexpected look. He soon realized that this was a legendary rogue of the same level as himself, and quickly said seriously: "I heard I told you about your story."

"It's my honor." Maiga said humbly: "I have never been to Neverwinter. This time, apart from the reason for being invited, I mainly hope to find a few teammates. I found in the Underdark I found a lair of a spirit sucking monster and planned to exterminate it."

"Oh?" Martinus Rutledge frowned. "Illithids? This kind of evil existence is absolutely intolerable. If you don't mind, we can talk about it later."

"Please add me." Another voice came from the side. It was a slim woman. She introduced herself politely: "My name is Eunice Alonso. If you can help me, pleasure."

It is natural for famous adventurers to get together to communicate with each other and even share information. This is why many adventurers are willing to come. Even if they don’t win awards, they can still make some connections.

At this time, Trixi finally came to the stage.

She was wearing a formal and exquisite robe. Although she was a little reserved due to nervousness, she managed to maintain her dignity. After taking over the position of Daggett Wujin, she looked around and took a deep breath: " Then, the Legend Awards Ceremony officially begins.”

"The first award of the first Legend Awards Ceremony will be the Best Exploration Award of the Year."

"This award is dedicated to encouraging those who have the courage to explore unknown areas and unearth ancient ruins. After intense discussions, the jury finally decided on the candidate for the Best Exploration Award—"

Trixi paused for a moment, and the surrounding area and even the entire square couldn't help but quiet down.

Even people who have nothing to do with this award can't help but feel a little nervous and looking forward to it, and they don't know the origin of this feeling-the award ceremony is too novel and interesting for the world of Faerun.

Almost when someone could no longer hold back due to the pause, Cui Xi finally spoke: "She once led a team deep into the dark areas to find ancient ruins thousands of years ago, and successfully defeated the evil creatures entrenched in them and excavated them. Come out, let historians discover an unknown blank epic, she is-"

"Congratulations, Eunice Alonso."

The people around the stage and on the square couldn't help applauding. Eunice Alonso stood up in a little confusion. Hearing the thunderous applause, she looked at the congratulatory or envious eyes of the people around her. Suddenly, a huge A sense of accomplishment arises spontaneously.

Even when she successfully excavated the ancient ruins, she was never in such a happy mood.

Is this what it's like to receive an award?

Originally, she only came here for those bonuses, but now, Eunice Alonso suddenly felt that compared to those bonuses, the feeling at this time was the most precious.

"Perhaps, the honor contained in this award is much higher than I imagined. Even if it is the Silver Moon Badge or the Neverwinter Badge, how could it be possible for so many people to pay attention to it and so many people agree with it?"

In a trance, Eunice Alonso walked onto the stage and saw the exquisite half-elf looking at her with shining eyes.

Why does the main judge feel more excited than me?

Without any time to think about it, probably because of the influence of the environment, Eunice Alonso bowed to Trish as she should, and then took the pure gold medal handed over to her with both hands.

Of course, Trixie was very excited. She never thought that someone like Eunice Alonso would actually salute her. Fortunately, she had recited the lines of the process countless times before, so that she would not stutter gaffe.

"The medal has magic runes engraved on it. It's not an overly powerful magic, it's just a commemoration. If you sense it, it will point you in the direction of this high platform forever."

"Now, you can deliver your acceptance speech."

Eunice Alonso held up the medal in her hand. The medal was shining golden in the sun. She had experienced too many things in her life, but she suddenly didn't know what to say at this moment.

Everything was too unexpected, and the atmosphere at the scene completely stirred the heart of this legendary adventurer.

She looked down, looking at those famous people, each of them had a story that could make a bard sing for a night, and now, their eyes were all focused on herself, and they applauded for themselves without hesitation .

At the same time, farther away, on the square below the high platform, adventurers from all over the world are cheering for themselves.

All this is because of the medal in hand.

Eunice Alonso felt that even the coronation of the king was nothing more than that. At this moment, she seemed to be the center of the world.

"I--"

As soon as she uttered a word, she realized that her voice had been distorted, so she quickly took a deep breath.

“It is an honor to be recognized by the Legends Awards Ceremony Committee and receive this award.”

She tried to be polite and decent, but she soon found she couldn't.

It was so strange, there had been no such strong mood swings for many years, but at this moment, Eunice Alonso found that her eyes had become blurred.

The louder applause made her finally give up her insistence on decency.

She raised the medal even harder and said loudly:

"I'll never forget this moment in my life, and I can say for sure—"

"It's the most precious thing I've ever acquired in my life."
