Wrapping up the work.

After William's fall, Sidlifa successfully subdued the remaining Knights of the Northern Horn.

As for the small number of knights who were unwilling to be subdued and insisted on dying for William, Sidlifa naturally chose to respect their wishes.

The two demigods fell one after another, and the remaining members of the Outville family naturally did not have the courage to continue to resist. After all, there are two demigods here.

"So next, Shirley will temporarily stay in Sicily to help maintain the order of the Outwer family." In the hall of the Hearthfire Island Manor, Medea said lightly, "Of course, the rebuilt order will also be under our indirect control. ”

"The remaining Northern Horn troops, I plan to reorganize them into mercenary groups." Sidlifa chimed in.

"Reorganize the mercenary group?" Nora asked in surprise.

"The Azure Sword is under the jurisdiction of the first, second, and third mercenary groups of the Northern Horn." Sidlifa grinned, "How's that?" ”

Asker: ..................

Well, after the order in Sicily is restored, the Ottwell family, who are nominally subordinate to Sidlifa, will definitely have no incentive to invade the north again, thanks to the good relationship between the Green Sword and the Holy See.

How to maintain such a large conventional force, then, has become quite debatable. It is impossible to retire from the army and return to farming, and these Norman transcendents cannot be expected to farm honestly, so they can only maintain the status quo for the time being.

It is better to let them be mercenaries to make money than to fire them to go out and make trouble. In addition, Norla's family had money, so he could hire these Norman knights to protect the trade activities of the Licinian family's channel merchants in the Tyrrhenian Sea.

In this way, it is equivalent to saying that the future of Sicily will be ruled by three major powers: politically, the Ottwer family, led by Sidlifa, has the legal claim, militarily the demigods on Mier's side are responsible for supervising and intervening, and economically, the Nora family is responsible for blood transfusion.

Three-legged, most balanced.

Asker, of course, also saw it, and after sighing a few words, "The girls are starting to have their own thoughts", he no longer cared about it.

For him, the more important thing is, of course, the strength growth plan of the team.

After this battle, Sidlifa, Mia, and Sheila also successfully completed the ritual task and comprehended the corresponding laws.

Today, the highest level is still the Blood Girl favored by fate, Peggy at Lv. 16, followed by Asker, who has just completed the embodiment of the law, with a level of Lv. 15.

After comprehending the judgment skill, Eleanor's level is also raised to Lv.14, which requires the process of concretizing the law, and then Mi'er, Medea, and Nola, whose levels are Lv.12, Lv.11, and Lv.11 respectively, and there is still more room for skill development.

Of the last three newly promoted law-level transcendents, probably only Mia comprehended the skill of opening wormholes and successfully rose to Lv.11, while Sidlifa and Sheila were still Lv.10.

But it doesn't matter, the difference between the path of law and the path of bloodline is that the path of bloodline is upgraded from one order to another, and if it is stuck on the corresponding potion, it will be stuck for a long time; The path of the law is more akin to some kind of empirical absorption, and the speed of becoming stronger is linear and uniform.

So as long as everyone participates in more training, the level will naturally climb up, and there is no need to worry about encountering upgrade bottlenecks such as lack of potions.

For example, the future Sidlifa, listening to her tone, it is obvious that she has not been able to beat Aske in that world. After all, there is a 5-level difference between Aske and Sidlifa now, and of course it is not so easy to catch up.

When I think of Sidlifa, I think of that inexplicable kiss. Throwing distractions out of his memory, Asque subconsciously looked at Sidlifa, who was still talking to Medea, who suddenly blushed and turned away.

Asker: ???

"Ah, have you done anything to Sidlifa lately?" Medea crossed her arms and smiled and asked, her eyes narrowing into slits, "Why does she treat you strangely?" ”

Where is what I did to her, and what "she" did to me! Asker was speechless.

"Huh." Medea suddenly leaned over and sniffed at him, her nose twitching slightly.

"What are you doing?" Asker hurriedly stepped back.

"Why can't I read your mind?" Medea Fox asked.

"Oh." Aske said calmly, "I robbed you of your psychic abilities and put a layer of protection on myself. ”

Medea: ..................

"Your plundering skills are really powerful, can any ability be copied?" She said a little sourly, "Dare to love us, we are all your extraordinary law warehouse, you can pick and use it at will according to your mood?" ”

"What are you talking about, Medea?" Asker's face darkened, "I'm just 'borrowing' your abilities. ”

"It's okay to borrow it, when will I return it?" Medea was angry and asked, "How is the interest calculated?" ”

Asker: ???

"So be it." Medea smiled and said, "I don't care if you 'borrow' my ability, as compensation, why don't you go out with me today?" ”

"Uh......" Aske thought for a moment, and saw that Mi'er had come out of nowhere.

"Are you going to hang out?" The half-elf girl asked with interest.

Medea tilted her head and cast a sharp glare at her out of the corner of her eye. Mi'er responded with a sweet smile and said crisply:

"I just looked at the timeline and saw that you guys were out today. Can I bring me, Asker? ”

"Ah, of course no problem." Asker said quickly.

To be honest, after the last one-day boyfriend incident, he was really a little afraid of going out on a date with Miss Succubus alone.

The other party is a demigod who chases the law backwards, and as soon as the field opens, the wall knocks on the wall, and the kissing skills are so proficient that people are breathless. A few more times, he was afraid that he would really not be able to control it, and he would fall directly into the other party's gentle township, and he would not be happy.

Now that the half-elf girl has joined, she certainly won't let Medea attack unscrupulously. After all, Asker is also the captain of a professional team, and he immediately saw the feasibility of various tactics such as "borrowing strength", "arching fire at both ends", and "fighting between snipes and mussels".

"Are you going out?" Nora poked out of the kitchen, "That's right, I'm going out to buy groceries, let's go together?" ”

Medea and Mier: ..................

"Why don't you say what ingredients do you want, Sister Nola, let's go buy them and bring them over?" Mi'er had an idea and said.

For Medea, she still has the confidence to compete, no matter how many Nora she really can't deal with, she has to use all her strength just to intrigue with her rivals, and she has no time to brush the favorability of the head of the group.

"No, I have high requirements for the quality of ingredients, so I'll go myself." Nora showed a soft smile, and looked at Mi'er's gentle gaze and said clearly: "Little sister, how old are you to fight with me"?

"Ah, isn't it easy to choose ingredients?" Medea said coldly, "Let Mi'er pull you out of the parallel world, why don't you just go out with us?" ”

Nola: ..................

"In that case, it's better to let Mi'er pull out Asker from a parallel world, so you can date and play as much as you want, right?" Nora reacted suddenly, and said sharply back.

"Can that be the same? Asker in the parallel world is nothing more than a stranger to me, just like the captain. Medea puffed up her chest and announced in a loud voice, "My Miss Succubus is super loyal to love."

"That's right, Nora in the parallel world is also a stranger to me." Nora crossed her waist with one hand in dissatisfaction and said angrily, "How could I possibly let a stranger tinker with the ingredients I need?" ”

"So what the hell are you arguing about?" Eleanor had just returned from practicing her marksmanship outside, sweating slightly, with a towel hanging around her neck, and looked at the two girls in the hall who were tense in the hall, and Mi'er, who was sighing silently beside her.

"We're talking about hanging out." Asker said.

"Ahh Eleanor clapped her hands in realization, "Then why don't everyone go?" It's so crowded. ”

All:..................

So you think we're really just hanging out?

"Wait, I'll go back to my room and change into casual clothes." With that, Eleanor hurried up to the second floor.

She closed the door here, and Peggy's door just opened. The Blood Clan girl who came out sighed and asked:

"I just heard Eleanor say that you want to go out?"

"yes, hang out." Asker said.

"I'll go too!" Peggy jumped over the railing before asking, "Where?" ”

The crowd was speechless. You don't even know where you're going, so you're just going to follow?

"No matter where you go, I'll just follow the head of the regiment anyway." Peggy said nonchalantly.

"You go wherever he goes, are you Asker's little tail?" Mi'er complained.

Asker: ..................

Peggy's face was slightly red, and she defended: "I'm just not worried about the head of the regiment going out, I'm afraid that he will be abducted by people with bad intentions!" ”

Am I a little boy who hasn't grown up and will be abducted by human traffickers? Asker was speechless. But Peggy is finally right, he is indeed surrounded by "ill-intentioned" people.

So one more Peggy wouldn't be a problem, and maybe muddy the waters...... Thinking of this, Asker ignored everyone's frustrated expressions, nodded and said:

"Then Peggy should come along."

"Hmm!" Peggy replied playfully, and immediately came over to take his hand, and couldn't help but smile.

Physical contact! The girls around suddenly looked at each other, we are still exchanging words, why did you directly attack the head of the group?

Seeing that the smell of gunpowder at the scene was about to get so strong that it was about to start, Asker hurriedly said to Peggy:

"Since so many people have signed up, we just let our team go out and forget it, so we will do it as a team building tour. Peggy, you go and call Mia, Sheila, and Sidlifa. ”

"Hmm!" Peggy complied, then let go of his hand and ran out of the manor.

Fortunately, Peggy was simple-minded, and Aske slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and saw the eyes of the girls around him, all focused on him.

As we all know, couples press the road mostly hand in hand, the problem is that the head of the regiment only has two hands......

So, how to divide it?

——————

Located in the east of Palermo, the seaside town of Cefalù is said to have the prettiest crescent-shaped beach in all of Sicily and is a popular holiday destination in all of Italy.

It's winter close to the end of November, and the temperature in Sicily's coastal cities is around 10-20 degrees Celsius (after all, the low latitudes are close to the tropics), which is quite a pleasant season. Many children of rich families in Italy and Canada also made a special trip to Sicily to spend the winter at this time.

Especially after the signing of a commercial agreement for peaceful development between the Ottville and Licinius families, the whole of Sicily seemed to be transformed into a "golden basin" away from the war, and even the price of passenger ferries from Solomon City tripled.

The Blue Sword took the bus from Palermo to Cefalù, and directly occupied the five seats in the last row, as well as the four seats on the left and right sides of the penultimate row, just enough to divide the team of nine people.

Asker had wanted to pick a window seat in the back, but that made the only seat next to him hot.

After a whole round of bickering, it was unanimously decided that he would be in the middle of the last row, so that everyone would not be too far away from him, which would be the fairest.

So what exactly do you guys mind? Aske couldn't figure out at all, whether sitting far away from me or close to me had half a dime on our relationship?

The adjacent seats to his left and right were unceremoniously occupied by Nora and Medea. Two psychic sorcerer girls sandwiched him in the center, so that he could only maintain a state of psychic protection throughout the journey, lest his memories be stripped of during the journey.

But these two seem to have seen it?

Peggy and Mi'er couldn't grab the next seat, so they could only sit in the middle aisle of the fourth row, and as long as they turned their heads, they could see the "second closest" position of the regiment leader.

As for Eleanor, Sidlifa, Sheila, and Mia, of course, they sat in the four seats by the window - I don't know if they minded or not, anyway, they all didn't matter on the surface.

As the buses drove along the coastal road, the midday sun was pouring down wantonly, and many passengers had opened their windows to let in the sea breeze outside.

On the left is an endless view of the sea, and on the right is the golden fields of Sicily, with its Mediterranean-style pale brick buildings.

The girls looked boredly at the view outside the window, which made Asker even more depressed: So why don't you fight for a seat by the window in the first place?

"I suddenly realized that the sea around Hearthfire Island is still different from the real ocean." Nora pulled the hair from her ear and said with a smile.

"How is it different?" Asker took over.

"There are no strong winds in the island, so the sea is almost always calm, like water resting in a basin." Nora replied, "But if you look out the window, the sea is actually undulating. ”

"Indeed." Eleanor chimed in.

"That's why we're going to get out on the bus instead of staying in Hearth." Nora said with a smile, "After all, the scenery along the way is also part of the trip." ”

"That makes a lot of sense." Asker nodded. Medea next to her suddenly turned her eyes and said:

"Idle is idle anyway, why don't we play a game?"

It's absolutely impossible to talk about literature and art with a female literary youth, because you will be pulled into a mysterious unknown territory by the other party, and then defeated by her with a series of unclear and powerful perceptual theories. Medea decisively chose to shift the battlefield!

"What game?" As she expected, Asker's attention was diverted.

"Confess or take a risk." Medea said.

Truth or Dare, which has a more concise and easy-to-understand name in China, is called "Truth or Dare". Before Nora could speak, Mia in the front row had already climbed into her seat and turned around, shouting:

"Okay, okay, let's play a game!"

"Mia!" Mi'er hurriedly tried to pull her down, "You're going to make a noise to the passengers in front of you!" ”

"It's okay." Medea snapped her fingers, and the passengers who had turned back curiously in front of her turned their heads unconsciously, as if they hadn't heard anything.

"I'm blocking their attention." Medea explained, "Even if you shout in front of them, they won't react. ”

"Wouldn't that be a problem?" Nora asked worriedly.

"It's just a voice for us." Medea took out nine bamboo sticks from the bag (obviously prepared), then held the lower end in her palm, so that the exposed bamboo sticks were level height, and said with a smile:

"Nine bamboo sticks, one on the long side and one on the short side. The person who draws the long bamboo stick can designate a question or behavior, and ask the person who draws the short bamboo stick to answer strictly and frankly or follow the implementation. ”

"Sounds interesting." Eleanor said with interest.

"Here, let's draw lots." Medea smiled and handed over the bamboo sticks for everyone to draw.

Mi'er silently activated the ability to observe the future, and then picked one from Medea's bamboo stick, and sure enough, it was a long bamboo stick.

"Who got the short bamboo stick?" Medea asked.

"I ......" Sheila was speechless.

"Then, Mi'er decides." Medea laughed.

"Then answer the question." Mi'er said, "What's your favorite person?" ”

"My uncle, Your Majesty Basil." Sheila said without hesitation.

"Wait!" Mi'er hurriedly corrected and said, "When I say liking, I don't include worship or admiration based on family affection, but only love between men and women. ”

"Love?" Sheila was stunned for a moment before she finally hesitated, "I haven't met anyone who has caught my heart...... I have to say that I have a good feeling, Commander. ”

"Huh!" The girls screamed in unison. If Medea hadn't blocked the attention of the other passengers in advance, it is estimated that the whole car would have looked back.

"And what do you like about the regimental commander?" Mi'er didn't have a surprised expression, but just asked.

"That's the second question." Sheila replied calmly.

"Okay, then let's move on to the next round~" Medea took back the bamboo sticks from everyone with a smile on her face, and then glanced at Mi'er quietly, and said, "And, in order to prevent possible cheating, I will randomly distribute bamboo sticks to everyone, and you are not allowed to actively draw them~"

She mixed the bamboo skewers in her palm again, and then randomly distributed them to everyone one by one.

"Hey, it's me this time." Asker gestured that he had obtained the long bamboo stick.

"So who is the short bamboo stick?" Medea asked, and then noticed that the girls were all staring at her.

To be exact, staring at the short bamboo stick in her hand.

"It turned out to be me." Medea also understood, reached out and stroked her hair, revealing a charming and bewitching beautiful smile, "Then the head of the regiment, please interrogate or order me to your heart's content~"

"Answer the question." Aske said helplessly, "Is there any way that can make you a little more reserved, a little more conservative, and a little more dignified?" At least like a girl of normal human descent? ”

When the girls heard this, they couldn't help but prick up their ears, thinking to themselves if there really was such a way in the world?

"Absolutely." Medea said.

Seeing that everyone was staring at her with blazing eyes, Medea pressed her palms to her chest and said solemnly:

"As long as Asker and I enter the marriage hall, I will sincerely convert to God and never do evil again. Honesty and trustworthiness, humility and courtesy, husband and children, conscientiousness, and strive to become a moral model recognized by the world......"

"Get out!" Asker interrupted her angrily.

After Medea interrupted like this, the atmosphere at the scene also became hot. In the third round, the long and short bamboo sticks were drawn by Nora and Eleanor, respectively.

"Well, Elli would like to answer the question." Nora pondered for a moment and asked, "Who is your most important friend in your life?" ”

"Of course it's you, Nola." Eleanor breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile.

"Hey! You're cheating! Mia immediately accused.

"Strictly speaking, it's not a rule-breaking." Sheila retorted beside her, "The specific order is decided by the person who gets the long bamboo stick, and others have no right to interfere." ”

So Mia rubbed her hands and vowed to get a long bamboo stick in the next round. Mi'er sighed beside her and secretly activated her ability.

Medea once again signed the bamboo to everyone (only this time when the bamboo sticks were mixed in her palm, they were silently replaced by the bamboo sticks of a specific order in the parallel world), and then ......

"I got a long bamboo stick!" As if pulling out a sword in the stone, Mia stood on the seat with enthusiasm, raised the long bamboo stick in her hand and showed it to everyone.

"Wow, you're so good!" Mi'er applauded and shouted.

"I command!" Before everyone could confirm the ownership of the short bamboo stick, Mia preemptively shouted, "The person who got the short bamboo stick, say it...... No, take a bite of the head of the family! ”

Mi'er was stunned when she heard this. Wait, that's not the way the future line looks, shouldn't you let her answer an embarrassing question?

She cast an incredulous gaze on Mia, who looked determined and did not hesitate at all. Turning her gaze again, Mi'er realized that Medea was looking at her with a smile.

Black swan...... Temporary Intentions...... The Law of Manipulation...... Mi'er suddenly understood.

"Who got the short bamboo sticks?" She asked feebly.

"It was my ...... who got the short bamboo sticks"

A faint voice sounded, and everyone saw Eleanor by the window holding up the short bamboo stick again. The blonde female knight covered her cheeks as if she could not bear it, and her face was as red as if it were a boiled shrimp.
