Chapter 610: Emmaris
Wuthering City seems quieter and quieter at night. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
After a day of fighting, all the citizens cowered and hid in their homes, closing their doors and windows, and not daring to come out anyway.
And the activities of some bold moles and bandits happened to hit Wu Ming's muzzle.
As soon as he captured Wuthering City, he ordered the entire city to be under military control, and there was a curfew at night, and once he caught a suspicious person, he could shoot him directly!
Under this high pressure, the entire Wuthering City seemed to be very calm, as if it had surrendered to him.
Inside a huge villa not far from Wuthering Castle.
"Wuthering City is the ruling core of the Wind Firefly Plain, and there should be tens of thousands of civilians in it, right?"
Wu Ming stood on the balcony, holding a transparent glass with a regular swirl of blood-red wine.
"But instead of fighting to the death for the Earl of the Blue Mountains, it succumbed to the rebels from the highlands, and now ...... It's in my hands again......"
He sighed lowly.
"In fact, the city has a permanent population of more than 100,000 ......"
Tana, the ladyess, was dressed in pajamas, and she didn't care about showing off her slender and toned figure that she had trained in her previous mercenary career: "The only ones who really fight for the lord are their own private soldiers!" ”
"And 10,000 newly drafted farmers are no match for a thousand trained soldiers!"
This insight is quite good.
Wu Ming looked at this woman with some surprise, he didn't expect the other party to have such insight.
Perhaps, the aristocracy has a monopoly on the inheritance of knowledge and power, but some of the elites among the commoners will still try to seize an opportunity and climb up at all costs.
Although most of them fail, it is the elite of the elite who will succeed in the end, and no mature ruling regime will turn them away.
"Very well, Tana...... Would you like to be my administrator? ”
Wu Ming took a sip of red wine and asked casually.
"It's my pleasure, my lord!"
Tana, the shrewd black widow, immediately knelt down: "I will offer you my loyalty, and everything!" ”
It is not a shame for the small nobles to serve the big nobles and serve as their officials.
However, if Wu Ming is still the same knight as before, it sounds a little shocking, even if he is now a baron, there is a little shortcoming, but Tana knows very well that William will definitely not be satisfied with the current title.
In the turmoil of the Wind Firefly Plain, there are opportunities everywhere!
"So, my administrator, do you think the city is under my absolute control......
Wu Ming asked Tana to get up, grabbed his right hand forward, as if grasping the entire city, and asked solemnly.
"With all due respect, no!"
Tana took a deep breath: "Your army only rules the castle during the day, but cannot master the city in the night!" ”
"Under the light, there will be darkness!"
Wu Ming smiled slightly, thinking of his last trip to the black market.
In Wuthering City, in addition to the Earl of the Blue Mountains, there is also a huge dark realm.
The huge underground cavern and the cobweb-like system of passages that extended in all directions were really shocking to him.
"Adults must also know very well that the Whistling Castle during the day is not everything......"
Tana said in a misty tone: "At night, in the stinky gutters, in the corners where the sun does not shine, in the shadows, there are a large number of black market merchants, slave owners, dark mercenaries...... They may be as humble as bed bugs and nowhere to be seen, but if you harm them, they will fight back! ”
"Am I afraid of rats in the stinking gutter?"
Wu Ming smiled coldly: "The Wind Firefly Plain will eventually be under the rule of our blue blood!" ”
"Yes, my lord!"
Tana blushed a little: "In the face of your army, any dark mercenary can only be captured, but their battlefield is never under the sun, and the night is their best cover!" ”
"Good, looks like you know this very well!"
Wu Ming nodded with satisfaction: "I will first appoint you as the sheriff of Wuthering City, and the first thing you have to do is to transfer some of the elite of the soldiers, and then recruit a group of assassins, thieves, and knights who have broken the oath to form the night watchman!" ”
He added: "To subdue these rats, we can't help but let them see our power!" In this regard, it is a little easier to deal with darkness with darkness! ”
Tana was originally the leader of the Wolf's Heart Mercenary Regiment, a character in the gray area, and she also has an understanding of the dark world, so she is a very suitable person.
And there must be darkness under the sun, and Wu Ming has no intention of completely pulling up the filth of Wuthering City.
The black market can continue to exist, but every copper plate traded, must be taxed for him! So that he has enough support to carry the war on!
"Night's watchman?"
This is equivalent to the meaning of the dark elite force, I didn't expect Wu Ming to trust her so much, and directly handed over the heavy responsibility to her, which made a hint of strange color appear in Tana's eyes.
"Yes, Night's Watchman, it is your duty to guard Wuthering City in the night!"
The corners of Wu Ming's mouth brought a subtle arc: "In the future, I will also form a 'Watcher' organization, and the members must master extraordinary power to fight against thaumaturgists, wizards, and cursers of other strengths......"
"I see!"
Tana took a deep breath and leaned back.
But Wu Ming looked stunned, and suddenly walked into the hall and called a manservant: "You go to the door of the villa and invite my guests in!" ”
"Guest?"
The manservant was stunned, and then quickly ran out of the door.
Sure enough, under the watchful eye of a group of guards, a mysterious man wearing a black cloak and a hood with his face completely covered was already waiting there.
'Not a nobleman, how did he pass the curfew?' ’
The manservant felt a little strange in his heart, but this kind of thing was naturally not something he could ask, so he immediately bowed and saluted: "Lord Baron, please invite this guest in!" ”
The soldier next to him was stunned for a moment, and then immediately withdrew his weapon.
"Thank you!"
The black-robed man walked in, exhaling like an orchid, his voice was soft, and with a hint of sweetness, like a lark in spring.
"Ah...... Please come with me, Lord Baron is waiting for you in the parlor! ”
The manservant was stunned, and a flush appeared on his face, like a shy big boy.
He wasn't a boy for a long time, but there seemed to be a strange charm about this black-robed woman that made it difficult for him.
After bringing the lady to the living room, he brought milk tea, pastries, and red wine, slowly bowed and retreated, and slowly closed the door.
Bang dang!
The door was closed, and Wu Ming looked at the black-robed woman in front of him, with an interested look in his eyes: "A witch?!" ”
Although he has a Kalitan, but the other party only has the inheritance of knowledge, but has not yet mastered the power of magic, of course, this time she did not go out with the army, but in the Karos territory, a mysterious ceremony, maybe wait a while, Wu Ming can harvest a voodoo sect witch.
But now, a real witch has come to Wu Ming.
With his keen perception, he clearly perceived the dark power on the other party's body, which was even more than that of ordinary knights, and even similar to the ogre wizard last time.
Of course, Wu Ming at this time is no longer what it used to be.
The inheritance of the power of the people has allowed him to gain extraordinary physical and magical abilities, and if he confronts the ogre wizard again, one hand is enough to cut off the opponent's dirty head.
At this time, the witch, after seeing Wu Ming, her delicate body shrouded in the cloak also trembled.
From the first time she saw the other party, she was shocked by the full glory of Baron William.
That golden light, full of vastness and majesty, seemed to form a whirlpool, devouring everything around her, and the powerful transcendent power made her heart shake, and she was in a trance.
"Yes, sir!"
After a long time, the witch replied in a low voice, acknowledging her identity.
"Can you get past the curfew and find me accurately...... It seems that your energy is not small, who do you represent? The black marketeers in the cave below? ”
Wu Ming sat on the sofa and stretched out his right hand slightly: "Please!" ”
"Hee-hee!"
The witch didn't know what to think, but let out a smile that was enough to enchant the sentient beings, and the hood and cloak slipped off with a split of her white jade-like right hand.
What appeared in front of Wu Ming was a mature and plump beautiful woman who seemed to be about thirty years old.
She has long purple wavy hair, fair and delicate skin, smooth as milk, tall and bumpy, and every inch is full of the unique charm of seducing males.
Wu Ming's face suddenly froze.
The beauty of this witch is only one aspect, and the most important aspect is this woman, he has never seen it!
"Are you...... Wife of the Earl of the Blue Mountains, Lady Emmaris!? ”
The Earl of the Blue Mountains, whose first wife died in childbirth, and his second wife, who died of an infectious disease, soon married the fifteen-year-old lady of Emmaris.
In the knighthood and a few New Year's greetings, Wu Ming had attended the banquet of the Earl of the Blue Mountains, and naturally met this lady a few times.
It's just that at that time, the other party did not have the slightest difference from ordinary noble ladies and hid himself well.
This witch obviously mastered some kind of hidden secret method, and Wu Ming at that time had not yet obtained the power of the people, so he didn't notice it for a while, and actually fooled the other party.
But now, although Emmaris's appearance has not changed at all, in every move, her temperament has changed greatly, and she is judged to be two people at once.
It's just that no matter how the other party's temperament changes, Wu Ming believes in his feelings.
It turns out that the Earl of the Blue Mountains has married a witch!
Wu Ming felt that many doubts in his heart were solved at once.
