Light 38.3-A Chapter: Conquer the backwoods in half a day
·
You decide to let the lord fade away. He didn't have to be assassinated, as long as he didn't get in the way. There are not many barons in the fiefdom, and perhaps this petty nobleman is known in the ruling hierarchy and should be handled more cautiously. I wonder if the girls are willing to sacrifice it?
"Do you want to, don't be kidding, Lord. A few of the Changeling Maids beside you covered their mouths and chuckled, "Why don't we want to be the ...... of young nobles?"
"He's unmarried. Tong En did his homework ahead of time.
"What about the noble lady, hehe. I'm afraid a few of us will take turns guessing boxing. Several of the Changeling Maids gathered together and snickered, staring at the local lord like hungry wolves spotting their prey.
All right
You push the beautiful maid into the lord's arms, and say a set of polite things like hating each other at first sight, and give him a sum of money, enough to stay in your mansion for several months.
Hopefully, this baron will be able to live in peace and decadence from now on. How can a serious lord be easily corrupted, you actually don't have much hope for this, how long can you delay him...... Unexpectedly, the baron really hardly went out again.
Several drunks were drunk under the table by Geman, Colby and others, and they were very familiar with each other. Geman is a tough guy who has entered the finals of the wine king at the banquet, and it is easy to drink a few guys who are already half drunk.
The adventurers are all good fellows, Quack —— the group of locals laughing under the table.
"President, will you be reimbursed for the drink?" you nodded.
“...... Lunch?" you nodded again.
"It's better to just ......"
The adventurer just wanted to ask if he could reimburse the dinner as well. You threw 500 gold coins on the counter with a bang, the tavern owner became a bartender in half a minute, the only tavern in town became mainly open to adventurers, the locals needed to see if there were any vacancies, and even the name of the tavern was changed from "Fishbone Daddy" to "Treasure of Courage" - the name that adventurers were arguing about, it didn't matter.
Later, when I was in a hurry, I unconsciously changed to all adventurers free orders, and everyone was free every Friday.
Vaguely wallet hurts,
You whisper to Tong Eun to confirm that this is considered a "reasonable expense"?" "Little Kyle will definitely reimburse him, and even if it is unreasonable, I will find a way to make the account reasonable." You saved his life. Tong Eun's smile was a little wicked...... Your wallet suddenly doesn't hurt again.
The human heart is complex,
After enveloping, subduing, and corrupting most of the people, there are still some locals who drink sullen wine with their cheeks on their backs. After asking, those people had their own troubles.
"Originally, this remote town had only one benefit, that is, it gathered many high-level priests, so there was no need to worry about illness and injury. Yesterday several people left the island suddenly, what are we going to do in the future, alas. ”
Julianne looks at you, then says to the guy who was drinking, "I, a level 14 priest, treat the locals for free. ”
Hooray—— for the next ten or so minutes, only these two words kept echoing in the tavern. If memory serves, you came in because someone yelled "Fade......
Wait a minute!
When did she soar from level 9 to level 14!
Such a terrifying escalation rate must be asked, Julianne's explanation is as follows: In the past, there were only six or seven patients a day at most in the ancient city. Bay, one of her healers, treats hundreds of strange wounded and sick people every day after solving the plague** until they are exhausted, revolts**, guild defenses** fight not only enemies but also death, and later progress with other priests of the Bay Temple through the introduction of Rainbow Shadows. The main reason is probably that she is now your "apostle".
When it comes to the "apostle" ability, there is always a feeling of super-common sense, maybe it's just thinking too much.
Julianne stared into your eyes, hesitated slightly, and then said solemnly:
"Thank you very much, it has been the privilege of my life to join yours. ”
A very simple sentence that contains far deeper emotions than words.
After speaking, you have a ......
......
The strange, indescribable feeling seems to have been caused by Julianne's loyalty rising a few points above the maximum, causing the "apostle" abilities to change—as if some kind of inspiration had fallen from the sky.
Tong En took your hand and sat down at the counter: "Elder, you'd better hear about it yourself." She pointed to the bartender.
You've spent a lot of money on alcohol and even bought the tavern, and as is customary, the bartender will share some information with you. There wasn't much going on in the small place, and he could only think of three things at a moment.
"It's such a boss, there are three things that outsiders can't know, and even this scholar hasn't heard of. The bartender rubbed the counter, "First of all, there is a dry well here, and no one usually approaches it, but the old people say that if you put food into the well, you will gain the ability. Almost everyone on this island was born with abilities, perhaps this is the reason why the dry well is actually useless? ”
Secondly, although the island is called the "Altar Mouth", there are actually no altars, and the dry well does not look like the Giant Mouth, and there is not even a mountain basin similar to the Giant Mouth. It is said that a long, long time ago, there was a shoe cult on this island that artificially created a demigod. ”
Belch?
"A fat man who is paralyzed and can only eat with his mouth open. His mother was the leader of the shoe cult, and every day she poured buckets of countless delicacies into the fat man's mouth in exchange for divine protection. At that time, the island's fanatics were given the power of terror - either the nonsense of the old people, or the truth of history was not allowed to be written in books. This island is therefore named "Altar Mouth". ”
...... You look at your hands.
"That fat man's next [] field, is it dead...... I'll go back and ask. Thirdly, yesterday, on the shore next door, the gods thundered, and then crawled out of the dry well, the demigod mother, the fat man's mother, and the leader of the Shoe Cult who had been killed by the paladins came back to life! ”
That's why so many civilians dare to find fault with the viscount?
After a few more conversations, you learned that the local lord had long been seized by the powerful temple forces with four level 17 priests, and he usually put on a show but didn't have much influence in his words. In fact, the only thing that dominates this isolated island town is the temple.
Make sure that the adventurers mingle with the locals,
You take a handful of elite staff members and head to the temple at the docks.
Lessons have taught you that if you have the power, you should take the initiative. First of all, go and say hello to the ruler here, everyone gets along best, but just by the fact that they sealed Shanting, it can be concluded that the temple is difficult to become an ally!
It might be a good idea to kill them first.
The doors of the temple are usually open, and you enter them with a menace. The main statue inside is the goddess of life, in fact, she is the main statue of many temples in the kingdom, and there are six stone statues of good gods on both sides. A total of three or five civilians were praying in the lobby, not as many as the staff.
Raymond grabbed a little priest by the collar, "Where is the Bishop? Can't you see that the Viscount is already here? Is it deliberate neglect?"
The bishop theoretically did not have to greet any nobles, these were two dissecting lines of power. Raymond had never been fond of council chambers or temples.
"It's a long way off. ”
The Scar Priest walked slowly from the side of the temple, followed by four heavily armed high-ranking paladins - visual level 15-17, with a tense expression of steel, sword hilt in hand, and full of evil energy.
Damn, it's not good—Raymond muttered in a low voice. The Lord Viscount actually brought four high-level holy warriors with him. Ill-intentioned. Is this a demonstration?
You are calm.
We will not be soft when it is time to get rid of the other party, but for now we will try to resolve the issue peacefully. Seeing that the other party has a tough attitude, you also become tough and make a request:
It is hoped that the forces of the temple will not interfere in the affairs of the adventurer's guild, and neither the nobles nor the guild will be under the jurisdiction of the temple.
clarity
explicit
There is no room for negotiation.
"Oh, good. ”
Bishop Scar nodded. ...... Hmm? I was so happy to say yes.
Raymond also said: "Don't underestimate us! I can judge who is who with my skills alone, and I don't have to think of sending the four of them or other masters to try to assassinate and sneak attack with a mask and disguise." As long as we don't die, someone will die!"
"Well, got it. ”...... Uh, why does this bishop talk like that?
Tong En piled up a smile on his face: "If you have to be so 'refreshing', then we'll see." Could it be that the reputation of the president of my family has not yet spread to this small place where birds don't, hehe. ”
The bishop sighed,
Shake your head.
"We'll see, because I'm about to go to Cloud Splitting City to stand trial. I've disappointed Your Majesty......"
Suddenly, one of the high-ranking paladins pushed the scar bishop and shouted, "Don't rub it off, the ship can't wait for you to chat forever!"
Hopped aboard a boat,
Left.
Uh-uh-uh? What's the situation!
At this point, you don't know that Shanting killed six level 17 priests, and this account was all counted on the head of the head of the head - the seal failed, all the high-ranking priests of the local temple were killed, and several foreign aid were killed - the scar bishop was finished.
You stand in the scorched sun and the sea breeze, your face bewildered. There are no insidious council halls, domineering guards, pervasive and entangled markets, not even black markets, no armies, and the people are shouting long live under the monastery of money, and now even the head of the temple and the high-ranking priests are gone...... Who should you fight?
Yes!
You've found it!
A priest came running from afar in the direction of town, waving an official promotion order—you saw it once, it was a bishop's ordination! So, this young, smart-looking young man will be the bishop here?
"I ...... I've found you, honorable, Viscount, good day. Letter ......of Appointment!
The young man handed the letter of appointment to Julianne with both hands, with Julianne's name written on it.
......
......
...
A, huh?
B,, the voyage is one day and one night, and there is no teleportation array, and the birds don't! Now there is not even a villain?
Last time, he casually threw a bishop appointment letter to the retired bishop for him to look at, and then he turned a deaf ear to the "Rainbow Shadows" absorbing the Dark Priest to be stationed in the temple together, and now he has appointed Julianne? Julianne is, but...... But the rebels who voluntarily withdrew from the power of the Temple!
D, someone must be doing a guild behind their backs, it must be!
