Chapter 146: Manor Celebration

The Lord's Mansion of Amster.

The round table in the conference room was covered with a beige tablecloth with lace trim, and several sunflowers of different heights were inserted in high-necked glass bottles in a casual and enthusiastic manner. The newcomer has a new atmosphere, Madame Sool is in charge, and the sharpness of the City Lord's Mansion has been neutralized a lot.

Madame Soort, who had recovered from her illness, was a very attractive woman.

She looks to be in her early thirties when she recovers her magic, and her experience of bravely counterattacking after encountering unladylike and shameful people has made her full of bold beauty. This is a woman who is moving from a female mage to a female politician.

Madame Soort took her ex-husband and imprisoned him by thunderous means, and successfully ascended to the position of the lord of the city, not to mention the deal with the Holy See, but the most troublesome thing for her was the children who were taught crooked by her ex-husband.

There are not many children who favor their fathers, but even their father's mistresses are partial—Tholl has lived for decades and really hasn't seen them.

Faced with her children who were barking at her all day, Madame Solet considered whether to throw them back to the Duchy of Soal. I don't know if I was lucky or not, but soon a new problem arose that diverted Mrs. Soor's attention.

The nobles of the city have been assassinated one after another!

Although the highest titles of several nobles are only earls, the titles of nobles are only part of their strength. These nobles have been married for generations, and they act in the same voice and help each other in the city of Amster, and it is a headache how to treat them after each city lord takes office.

Nobles like Madame Thauer and her ex-husband who had moved from the diocese could only be counted as Jianglong, and there were many entrenched local snakes in Amster City.

The fact that the previous city lord was able to send away the people of the Sool family one after another had nothing to do with his collusion with the local snakes. As Liu Ci expected, Mrs. Sool succeeded her, and these nobles were not pleasing to the eye for a long time, but they were not stable. I haven't had my hands free to clean them up yet.

At this moment, someone actually took action for her. As long as Mrs. Sool thought about it a little, she could guess Liu Ci's head. Faced with such a result, she was surprised by Liu Ci's decisive move, and her conjecture about Liu Ci's strength was also expected. As long as the goal can be achieved, Liu Ci can make a move against the city lord, what is there that girl does not dare?

Madame Soort knew this, and her feelings were very complicated.

The butt decides the head, she likes Liu Ci's momentum very much when she cleans up her ex-husband, and when she becomes the owner of the new city, Mrs. Soort feels that Liu Ci is too "impulsive". Whoever has a thorn in the territory like Liu Ci will have a headache when he sleeps at night.

Tangled and tangled, Mrs. Sool and Liu Ci have no conflict of interest for the time being, and what is in front of her now is how to use this wind to maximize the benefits of the City Lord's Mansion.

In the round table, Mrs. Soort and her subordinates had been discussing for an afternoon.

"These people suddenly appeared out of nowhere, they have no origin, and they are very powerful, madam, we have not found out the origin of the murderer for the time being, we only know that they should be a team with tacit understanding."

Madame Soort said that the murderer would be arrested, and the subordinate officials cooperated. But the murderer was elusive, and Mrs. Soult shifted the focus of the conversation to the rectification of the Amster Formation.

"Emst is a free city, the identity of the inhabitants is very complicated, and we can not pursue crimes that happen elsewhere, but in Amster City, they must be honest and good citizens. This is not only the goal of the City Lord's Mansion, but also what the Holy See of Light is willing to see. ”

There are overlaps and conflicts between theocracy and monarchy, and when you narrow down to the city of Amster, there are also contradictions. The existence of the Holy See of Light, even if it allows Madame Soult to use her strength, is also a huge constraint on her governance and actions. Amster City is more sophisticated than the rest of the city, and it also has a thousand-year-old magic school!

It is said that it is to guide the atmosphere in the city, and Amster has only the most magicians in addition to criminals. She didn't want the Magic Academy and the Holy See to be in the same breath at all, the greater the conflict between the two, the more beneficial it would be to the existence of the City Lord's Mansion.

I have to say that Madame Soort herself is going through the transformation of a noblewoman to a person in power, and in the near future, there will be one more female politician in the Spurs Empire.

At the same time, in the Amster School of Magic and Wizardry, there is a pair of grandchildren who are also discussing Liu Ci.

"Too angry, like a black magician! Yes, you should keep an appropriate distance from this person. It's okay to play together, but the relationship can't be too close. The old dean's evaluation of Liu Ci was very concise, and it didn't sound like a good thing.

The girl Weiyi was noncommittal about this evaluation, Liu Ci secretly cleaned up so many people, not only did not kill anyone, but also gave those people enough lessons, she actually admired them very much.

Her grandfather's thoughts, it's just stuck in ancient times, not to mention, how many of the magicians who graduated from the academy are pure white and flawless? The strange altar in the underground cave of the collapsed artificial lake was exactly what she had personally experienced, and when she later told her grandfather what had happened, he could only be silent, right?

At the age of fourteen, he was also in the second stage of adolescent middle school in the Earth Federation, but he glanced at it and did not take the old dean's evaluation of Liu Ci to heart.

She was also very curious, how did Liu Ciyuan do it outside of Amster City to make several nobles have an accident at the same time? The list was given to Liu Ci by her, but Wei Yi was secretly concerned about this matter, and she was stunned that she didn't find any signs before Liu Ci started.

It is not long or short before the trial of the "poisoning case", it is estimated that those nobles did not expect Liu Ci to take revenge, right? Only if he thought of it, he didn't even care about the research of his favorite alchemy for a while, and he couldn't wait to put on his wings and fly to the valley manor, and quietly Liu Ci raised the "divine soldier".

If you train like those child soldiers, you can raise great subordinates, right? Weiyi's purple eyes shimmered with a moving luster.

……

The Black Cavalry is simply a fight to fame!

Months of intense training paid off, and thanks to the delivery and purchasers in the city and from the estate, new news came from Amster City every day. At the beginning, when the enemy was defenseless, the Black Cavalry moved particularly smoothly, and after two accidents, the nobles became vigilant, and the Black Cavalry needed to have a particularly strict plan in advance for each operation.

Every step must not be wrong, and a single oversight can lead to the failure of the entire plan and expose their identity. In this case, Lydia's experience as the captain of the adventure party is particularly valuable. Perennial in and out of the dangerous Morok Mountains, the leadership of the beautiful captain is very strong, whether it is to make a plan, or to give specific commands, she has not only the real experience in the Morok Mountains, but also repeatedly studied and demonstrated the "advanced" military knowledge instilled in her by Liu Ci, and is really an impeccable leader in the context of the times.

Arnold was the overseer and spearhead of the plan, and the two worked together to infect the Black Cavalry squad.

When the last task on the parchment scroll was completed, Liu Ci was already waiting for the return of the Black Cavalry.

She and the Eighteen Knights had never gotten along, and they didn't have any feelings for each other. But Lydia and Arnold are the few friends she is familiar with and can get along with after coming to the other world. Cavalry can be trained with gold, and as long as they are willing to invest, they can always get the type of troops they want.

But the relationship with Lydia cannot be replicated.

Liu Ci was a little worried, and when the old butler James came to inform her that a column of well-disciplined cavalry wearing black armor had appeared on the slopes of Taniguchi, Liu Ci's smile was very sincere.

Her buddy is back. Some of her ideas have also been tentatively validated.

"How's they doing?"

James had a serious expression: "Most of the people were injured, but the severity of the injuries varied. ”

Liu Ci thought for a while, "There is still barrel wine in the cellar, right?" It doesn't have to be too good, it just tastes pure. ”

The old butler replied casually without looking through the notebook: "Fifty pounds of oak barrels, and there are seven or eight barrels in the cellar, so there is no concern about lack of wine for the time being." ”

"Prepare the wine, let the kitchen prepare a sumptuous dinner, and tonight in the rotunda I will feast the returning cavalry."

"As you wish, miss."

The old butler took the notebook and stepped back, arranging the dinner party, etc., according to the identity of the invitee, etc., he also had to communicate with the kitchen, with the maids, not in a few words, James was destined to spend this afternoon in a busy time.

The maid Sang Man quickly slipped away with her skirt and brought her leper horse to Liu Ci.

Good forage has been fed for more than half a year, the horse is still so ugly that he can't bear to look at it directly, and his temper is extraordinarily big. The maids gossip in private, and probably only Miss Ci's momentum can make people ignore the appearance of the mount under her.

The leper horse and Liu Ci have been together for a long time, and they have a feeling of complementing each other, anyway, when Liu Ci rode it to the entrance of the valley to pick up the black cavalry, their faces were full of excitement, and their eyes were not exposed at all.

"You made it."

Eighteen knights, some of whom were seriously wounded, even had difficulty turning over and dismounting. But their mental outlook is not decadent at all, and what makes Liu Ci happy is that the eighteen horsemen are injured, but they are not dead.

There were no fatalities, and all eighteen knights returned, led by Lydia and Arnold.

Liu Ci said plainly, but the knights agreed. They did succeed, it was the most perfect actual battle, at the least cost, to achieve the greatest benefit, their task was accomplished, but no companion died. Life is more secure than when they were free mercenaries, and there is their own dedication, so the Black Cavalry are proud.

Liu Ci took the lead, followed by Lydia and Arnold, and the black and serious cavalry followed.

The group caused a lot of discussion among the hired workers who were busy around the manor. It just so happened that the children's regiment selected by Liu Ci had returned from Beishan after a day's training, and the half-grown children looked at this well-equipped and energetic cavalry with envious expressions.

The old butler had already arranged the supplies, and when the black cavalry had packed themselves, they were greeted by the maid to the small round hall that had been arranged.

The food came second, and what they liked was the uninhibited atmosphere in the small rotunda.

Liu Ci only toasted them with a glass of wine, but the black cavalry immediately realized the difference of this wine. A breath of "qi" warmed up in the body, the pain of the wound was greatly relieved, and the fatigue caused by blood loss and physical exertion was swept away.

"Good Wine ......"

Lydia's eyes lit up, and she thought that in the depths of the Morok Mountains, her younger brother George was sick and had a fever, and it was Liu Ci who cured him.

In this wine, is there Liu Ci's treatment method? Everyone was silent for a while, and they were all silently enjoying the magical effect of the wine.
