Chapter 61, Sid on Mercenaries

Wolfsburg Center, Hoffman-Von-Busen Mansion, Inquisition Temporary residence.

Temple Guard Ulrich sat behind the table and looked at the table full of Wallace gold coin, complexion ashen with flying lions on the front and Archduke Roboute’s stickers on the back.

After receiving a real-name report from the Silver Hand family of the Light Elf yesterday, Ulrich, as the Temple Guard under Magistrate, took this situation very seriously, and immediately sent someone to check whether there was any thing.

Normally speaking, gods belong to gods, and mortals belong to mortals. The Inquisition of the Church in Heaven should not arbitrarily interfere in such local noble affairs. However, whether it is “Falcon Canon” or “Sun Nerve” There are extremely severe warnings and punishments for such strong sex underage girls, and the Church of Heaven has sufficient reasons to intervene.

Furthermore, if it is a report letter from within Holy Empire, that’s all, the key is the report letter from the Light Elf Silver Hand Family, which has a particularly significant international impact and has a particularly bad impact on the official image of Holy Empire. , so the inside of the Church of Heaven began to investigate immediately without thinking.

The evidence is solid and true.

What made Ulrich even more angry was that a large bag of Wallace gold coins, brand new and new, was found directly from Stefan Baron’s luggage.

smelly brat

“You still don’t want to admit your crime? My Baron?” Ulrich moved towards Baron across the table growled.

Stefan is strapped to a chair and caught because of hangovers, frights and interrogations, where his Paragon Rank strength is completely out of the question.

“Now admit that, according to Jupiter’s will, we can take it lightly.”

“My grandfather will come to my rescue.” Stefan said, “You wait. “

“This has nothing to do with your grandfather.”

“He’ll come to my rescue.”

“My Baron, O Jupiter’s Libra , don’t you have any repentance for the series of mistakes you have committed?”

“You wait, wait for my grandfather to come, you are all dead.” Stefan leaned forward, His crazy and malicious eyes stared at the Guard badge on Ulrich, he grinned, and the stench of the night and the smell of alcohol sprayed on Ulrich’s face: “Look at your badge, can you It’s not easy to be the Temple Guard, hehehe, it’s a pity, it’s going to leave you soon.”

After that, Stefan maintained his ruthless attitude, no matter what Ur Whatever Richie said, Stefan said that.

The Temple Guard had no choice but to press him down and lock him up.

However, within a few minutes, the clamor came from far to near.

“Who, who caught my grandson, stand up for me!” Orlando count took a few wolf champion warriors and broke away directly with a rather arrogant attitude. His face was all red, and his turbid old eyes spurted out monstrous anger. He pushed Paladin, who was guarding the door, away: “Where is my grandson Stefan, I want to see him!”

It’s coming, it’s coming! Ulrich quickly stood up and said solemnly: “Your Excellency count, your grandson is suspected of rape and accepting bribes from foreign forces. We have solid evidence, according to…”

“FNNDP!” Orlando slapped Ulrich directly in the face, and the old count was furious: “Who said that? Who said that my grandson committed a crime? How dare you arrest my people in the land of wolves?”

“We have evidence.” The Temple Guard stood up with his face covered, and he was also angry: “God will not forgive such a person.”

“What evidence? This can also As evidence, you saw him commit a crime with your own eyes? That eye? You were there? Why did you arrest my grandson if you weren’t?” Orlando count motioned for more soldiers to come in, he grabbed Ulrich’s collar: “I How could my grandson of Orlando-Wolfe be a criminal? I’ll give you a chance now, and things can be salvaged.”

“I swear to Jupiter, your grandson Everything we did is true, and the bag on the table is the evidence we found.” Ulrich was also angry, but someone dared to directly break into the courthouse to take people?

“Evidence?” Orlando pushed Ulrich away, groaning inwardly when he opened the bag.

“This is the proof.”

“This is the proof of a hammer.” The old man grabbed the bag fiercely, and roared coming one after another with his hands on his hips: I have a little evidence of foreign exchange. I know my grandson. I was with him in the hotel yesterday. Why didn’t I see any gold coins? Do you know how hard my grandson worked? When I was drinking at the bar, What is he doing? He is studying in the room!”

“How can a child who loves learning so much be a criminal in your mouth?”

In the end, the old Sir Yue Yue The more confident he said, he pointed to Ulrich’s nose: “I think you are the corrupt person who took bribes from foreign forces in an attempt to slander my wicked wolf’s outstanding children! I have the evidence in my hands.”

“Someone, arrest him.” More wolf champion warriors rushed in and detained Ulrich, the Temple Guard, on the ground, and the old man reached out and pulled Ulrich out. The Guard badge on Xi’s body: “You don’t deserve to wear this thing, you scum of the wolf, wait for justice.”

The Temple Guard did not expect things to turn out like this anyway. , he was about to justify that Orlando count slapped him in the face again: “The witnesses are all there, and when the court of my Principality, I see what else you have to argue, remember it for me, the Falcon Holy Book. Never wrong a good person, but never let a bad person go, if you have anything to say to the court of our principality.”

The grandson was rescued.

The Temple Guard, who was knocked to the ground, saw the contemptuous smile on Stefan Baron’s face.

Go ahead, my grandfather will come to my rescue.

“Take it away!”

The wolf champion warriors escorted Stefan and Orlando count out of the Hoffman-von-Busen mansion.

The old man was about to scold his grandson for his stupidity, and when he ordered to find out who harmed his grandson, someone stopped them.

It’s Magistrate Huten and Hero Rank priest Neustadt.

“Someone really dares to take someone from the court, my count, you are so bold.” Magistrate’s face was expressionless, but everyone could feel his anger. On his orders, the religious warriors blocked the way.

“In the name of Jupiter, even if the Archduke Gerhardt comes today, don’t think about it, Inquisition warrior! For Jupiter, for the Holy Empire!”

“With In the name of Nikolai Your Majesty, for the wolf, for the Holy Empire!”

Rush on the street.

…………I am a family hitting the dividing line of the family…………

Second day, on the mountain road leaving Wolfsburg.

A group of fully armed Black Eagle guards escorted a luxury carriage along the roads of the Greyyan mountain range.

Today is the day of the autumn hunting. Celeste and Sid escaped from the manor and took twenty or thirty Black Eagle guards out for the autumn hunting.

Put on a full set of Black Eagle Imperial Family vibrating gold body plate armor, deep red coat of arms cloak, and put her gorgeous silver-white hair up high, and her eyebrows reveal the imperial Imperial Princess. Celeste looked at Sid who was sitting across from him and continued to giggle, and couldn’t help kicking Sid’s leg from under the table with the toe of his black military boots: “What are you laughing at?”

“Laughing at yesterday What happened, my highness.” Sid expected that his real-name report letter would be very effective, but he did not expect it to be so good.

On the streets of Wolfsburg yesterday, the violent conflict that left 3 dead and 22 injured cast a terrifying shadow on the city in late autumn. Teng and the others openly fought in the street, blood all over the floor.

This is a very bad conflict and bloodshed between secular forces and religious forces. A little bit of mishandling will lead to very serious consequences.

However, this gave the Imperial Princess an excellent excuse to intervene in local affairs. Celeste immediately seized this hard-won opportunity to personally arbitrate the conflict between the two factions and faced the Imperial Princess. Deterrence from Central Dynasty forced both sides to take a step back.

The Tribunal forgave the Orlando count’s offense but still detained Stefan Baron, and the Magistrate Hutten was tough, demanding that the nobles have an explanation for this.

The Orlando count was in a hurry to prepare for the wedding, and sent someone to chase Sergeant Head Booker on horseback overnight, and was forced to agree to the Imperial Princess’ arrangement – Stefan directly married the one who was chosen by him. assaulted girl.

This is the verdict given by the Imperial Princess, reasonable in every circumstance that both parties can grudgingly accept, and there are laws to follow.

The people of Wolfsburg immediately praised Celeste for being wise, decisive, impartial and selfless. The nobles had nothing to say, and for the first time religious forces were looking directly at this previously unknown iceberg beauty.

“You think I’m doing the right thing too?” Celeste couldn’t help but blush when she saw Sid’s smirk, and she was satisfied that she was able to seize this opportunity to extend her influence. and a little complacent.

“You have a good timing, I thought I needed to remind you, but it turns out that I don’t need to.” Sid seriously nodded, he immediately made a compliment: “Your Highness, we These people are like stars, guarding you like the sun!”

Can’t this guy be sincere? It can’t be fake anymore! A black line appeared on the forehead of the Imperial Princess, and the original iceberg-like state could no longer hold back, so she could only immediately hold up black tea to cover her slightly raised mouth.

I finally found a chance to let this kid know my level.

Unfortunately, Sid, who was talking nonsense, did not pay attention to the Imperial Princess. He was really happy that after this incident, the attention of the Inquisition was diverted. Magistrate Hutten is now focused on gathering evidence of Stefan’s crime and his upcoming wedding.

You’re safe, for now.

Seeing that Sid was still smiling and not speaking, the Imperial Princess suddenly sighed and regained her icy look: “The big brother once told me that the status of the monarch depends on the strong and lasting relationship between the various groups. Tension and conflict of interests, I have never understood it before, but I only started to understand it after yesterday’s incident.”

“Then did your big brother tell you that once someone climbs to rule If he holds the position of the leader and maintains it for a certain period of time, then the position will force him to accept the inherent laws and gradually keep him away from all other groups and strata in the whole society, and even away from the group he came from and supported him?” Sid said casually. : “That’s it, there must be a Lich King.”

An inherent law? gradually moving away? Must have a Lich King?

Celeste only finds that these occasional words from Sid’s mouth are not only intriguing, but also meaningful and beneficial, and she feels that there is a simple but profound political art in them.

He is like a mountain of gold, waiting for his own further exploration.

“Kickaka~” carriage was going on on the mountain road, both of them were silent, Sid was thinking about what to do next, while Celeste was thinking about how to continue digging out his private talent.

“Your Highness, is it still not good?” Sid asked suddenly.

Celeste understood Sid’s meaning after a moment’s surprise, she couldn’t help but show a look of disappointment on her face: “I still can’t, every time I feel the moment of success, it’s… it’s in my stomach There will be severe pain, and the power of sublimation will automatically fade.”

Yes, after a lot of practice during this period, Celeste has learned from Sid’s mouth how his emperor’s blood sublimated.

Sid’s Ascension of the Emperor’s Blood is completely different from what is currently known to the Imperial Family.

According to Celeste’s knowledge, whether it is the Old Sovereign emperor or her two big brothers, the way they activate the emperor’s blood sublimation is to concentrate all the Romani Bloodline Power in a certain part, and cause qualitative change through quantitative change. , and finally complete the sublimation of the emperor’s blood.

But that’s not the case with Sid. According to Sid, his emperor’s blood sublimation is the release of golden’s divine blood from the heart to control its spread to the whole body and complete the sublimation.

Imperial Family’s method Celeste tried without success. With the mentality of trying it out, Celeste tried Sid’s method.

It really works! Celeste has covered the surface of his body with the power of sublimation several times. The best sublimation power of the emperor’s blood has spread to his thighs, and golden rune has appeared on the surface of the velvet pantyhose.

But in the end it failed.

She doesn’t know what she is missing, but there is no doubt that Sid’s method is more useful. She has to improve every time she is close to success, so ice-beauty is in a good mood. For the first time, she took the initiative. I found a topic: “speaking of which, did you accept a commission like this kind of investigation when you were a mercenary?”

“Of course.”

“Specifically How?” The bad woman is like a sponge, trying to get more out of Sid.

“What and how?” Sid squinted his eyes: “More than 95% of the surveys I have taken are surveys that suspect the other half of cheating and ask me to help find evidence.”

“…” Celeste’s lovable body trembled slightly, and the Imperial Princess tried her best to control her expression. After a full minute, she continued to ask: “What about ordinary commissions? As a mercenary middleman, what do you pay attention to? ?”

“Of course there is.” Sid also bluntly continued: “As a mercenary intermediary, facing different clients, you must have different attention, for example, facing the third and fourth rank I am a white-headed man who is inherently trustworthy and guaranteed. At this time, I will ask them to pay more and tell them to leave everything to me. If they have any opinions, I will make a proper threat. It’s easy to make them submit.”

“If you encounter a commission from a small noble like Iquis, then you must carefully ask the conditions and content of the task and record it, and then judge the difficulty one by one, and try to use language and display as much as possible. My appearance is to let the other party feel my level, in this case, it is permissible to earn a little less, so I have a long-term vision.”

“So it is.” Celeste purple’s noble eyes radiated light, She leaned forward with her hands resting on her cheeks: “Then what if you were facing a big noble? What would you do with Nobili?”

“Nobili has very few commissions, and it is generally not something I can handle. , but if there is, it is not difficult, pay attention to everything, ask for instructions, report everything, only the will of the employer is enough, pay attention to minimize your influence in the entrustment, be a good speaker, and try to make the employer feel that everything is In his grasp, let him feel the thrill of micro-manipulation and the sense of achievement of sitting in the castle to win a thousand miles away.” Sid said with a smile: “For example: the crossbowman’s position moves forward 5 meters, the long spear behind the shield Tilt 15°.”

“Nobili’s list just needs to be remembered, it doesn’t matter if you can win or not, it doesn’t matter if you can complete it, the important thing is to let the Nobilis feel the fun of the operation, it’s cool. Enough is enough, they will pay.”

“pu~ “Sid tone barely fell, Gao Leng Ruxue Imperial Princess finally couldn’t hold back, she covered her face with her hands, I couldn’t help laughing on the spot: “Hahahahaha! It’s so funny, so funny, Sid, you cunning guy!”

The “hahahaha~” carriage is filled with happy laughter from Celeste, even beyond the carriage.

The Black Eagle guards stared blankly at me, I looked at you, the first time they heard such a happy laugh from the iceberg Imperial Princess.

Is it really the Imperial Princess sitting inside?

On the way, Sid’s rants came one after another, and a few meaningful words came out from time to time. Celeste only felt that this investigation trip seemed to be more than the fun in the manor. .

They stayed overnight in the small town of Kilt on the way, and on the second day Celeste ordered to move directly towards Cogne Castle in the depths of the Greyyan mountain range. The Black Eagle guards naturally persuaded them, but Neither the Guard Captain nor Ser Yehir were there, they could not resist Celeste’s orders.

Under the gloomy sky, Cogne Castle, which is located in the mountains and valleys, appeared in front of everyone.

The investigation begins.
