Chapter 44: The Beginning of Confusion
"Not as reserved as you think." He looked at the captain of the guard who came in and led the guards in.
"Didn't you even have candles ready for the shelter you're looking for?"
The guards who came in first closed the door panel, then lit a lantern to dim the dark room, and one of the guards came out and sat on a chair that had just been cleaned.
"Acquaintance, I'm my lord of the land, Hilton II." Said the Earl, who played the role of the guard.
"Masturbating." He moved a chair and sat opposite the earl, "I didn't expect the earl to come in person, I thought I would send at most a butler." ”
"The seriousness of the matter is enough for me to visit in person, otherwise I will not be able to sleep." The Earl said.
"Oh? Why is that? Teaser asked.
"It's not because of the good things you've done during this time!" The Earl said angrily, "Don't you know what you've done? ”
"Don't get excited, let's talk about it carefully, my ability to understand is limited." Hearing this, he rubbed his temples and motioned for the Count to speak clearly.
"The heretic has fled to the Witch Forest, and I'm here for the last pass." The Count said, "Although I am ostensibly afraid of the heresy's revenge for poisoning the royal capital, I have no regard for the heresy, but there are bounty hunters and witchers in the territory, and in fact there are very few heretics who can survive here every day. ”
"But your appearance directly made the witcher who hunted the heretic the fastest disappear, and the bounty hunter reduced the killing of wandering wizards because of the pass you issued, do you know how many wizards pass by every day?"
"A thousand." Teaser said.
"That's the number of passes, there are thousands of wizards passing by every day these days, do you think about what kind of terrifying existence they will be when they gather to tens of thousands?" The Count said gloomily.
"They are all pilgrims, persecuted people from various regions, and in addition to taking refuge here, they are more interested in studying and researching for a common idea." Teaser said.
"What if they make trouble? Do you know how many cases have been caused by heresies staying in the territory? The Earl asked, and when he shook his head, he asked again, "Do you know that the witches hidden in the Great Wasteland were originally nobles left over from the Earth Pattern Dynasty?" The wildling tribes of the Great Wasteland still retain their faith in them, and heretics with a great deal of knowledge and power are stationed at this time, and if their ambitions are awakened, the counties adjacent to the Great Wasteland will bear the brunt. ”
"As a Sage of the Great Wasteland, I wonder if Your Excellency can help me solve this problem?" The Earl stared at him and said, "You didn't send anyone to stop me from propagating in that generation. ”
"War is indeed a terrible thing, and some of them arrived at the pilgrimage site under my protection, and I will take care of this matter, including the heresy that destroys the city." "I also need a workshop, some slaves, and some materials. ”
"What material?" The Count asked.
"Saltpeter, cotton, cloth, cowhide, brimstone, stone mills, vats, fire oil, mutton fat." "None of these things I want are missing, the number of minerals is based on the weight of ten thousand pounds, and the rest are enough, they are the key to resisting the remnants of the Great Soil Pattern Dynasty, if they really come." ”
"Ding~" A thaler was thrown into the sky, and the Count reached out to catch it, revealing the bald king printed on it.
"Your Excellency the Earl still believes in divination?" Thaler asked, looking at the Count.
"I promise you." The Count said with determination, "It just so happens that the merchant is coming, and I will write to him to bring you what you need." ”
"My experiment will take time, when will he arrive?" Masturbation asked.
"They are in the royal capital, I sent a letter to the past, and it will take half a month until they prepare the goods." The Earl said, "I can provide you with a small amount of raw materials for experiments." ”
"When I got back, I told me the address of the workshop, and the materials were shipped over, as did the slaves." "In addition, the slaves will not return after the end. ”
"I see." The Earl nodded, put on his helmet and got up to leave, heresy is rampant, the bishop is honestly excessive, the royal family can only resist a part, if it really develops into an uncontrollable situation, this sage is the hole card to turn the tide, if he is really useful.
The Count was gone, and sat there quietly, while the savage was still cleaning the house, until he had done all this work, and ran to the door to see the cauldron.
"Sage, the noodles are in a mush."
"Serve it out and eat it with nuts."
The savages did so, until darkness fell, and the castle began to become restless, and screams appeared in the night, some of them heretics, some of them commoners.
He even saw a few shadows in the dark looking this way, but finally left the corner after the sound of the bounty hunter running.
"The Earl has already started to attack heretics, you go and call Mul back for me, I don't have enough people here." Teaser said.
"What about the rest of the people in the Starfallen Lands?" The wild man asked, "Would you like to call for help?"
"They're just there to take care of the patient." Tusele shook her head, "I don't need them to teach me. ”
There was no one in the church at Hilton at night, and a group of clergy gathered in an underground cell.
The cell had been expanded to be larger than the surface, and the clergy stood silently until the closed wooden door was opened and the bishop with the beak mask walked out.
The clergy staggered their gazes, and when the wooden door was opened, it was as if they had seen hell.
"Is there anything important?" San Sonydi took off his beak mask and looked at everyone wisely.
"There are simply too many heretics who have crossed Hilton, and they are gathered in the Witch Forest and are likely to do something." The priest spoke.
"Recently, the church has been crowded every day with prayer believers, who are worried that there will be a dark jihad that will sweep the whole world." Another clergyman also said.
"Ignorant lambs, heretics are only troubled when they shrink into the shadows, and heretics gathered together cannot defeat armies." San Sonny said loudly, "I already know about it, it's just some weak and unsustainable existences in our country, you don't have to worry, presumably, what I do is what can affect the world!" ”
On the left edge of Hilton, the witch silently watched the owl flying over her shoulder to deliver the message, and with a few soft mutters, the witch let it go.
"The Count's Nightingale Knights are heading this way, and it looks like we need to take a detour back."
The witch pressed her big brimmed round hat, smiled a little, and then urged the carriage forward, and the heretics looked at the witch in shock, there was a river on the other side!
