The witch thought I am a Demon God
Chapter 375 Conspiracy and Temptation
Ivita has arranged accommodation rooms for people from the church and the Mango Tooth Kingdom. Although Joseph Castle is a bit shabby in terms of decoration in the eyes of those high-level professionals, it actually has many internal rooms and is very spacious, housing hundreds of people. The soldiers were still fine.
Among all the castles in her own territory, Joseph's Castle has the most complete facilities, so Ivita decided to make this castle the center of her rule.
As for building another castle...
That would not only cost tens of thousands of gold pounds, but also take a long time of ten to several decades.
I can't wait that long.
After entertaining these new subordinates, Ivita found Tartax in the study to discuss those who stayed in the territory and those who went to the knight competition.
Ivita decided to let the Grand Knight of the Iron Mountain, the Mermaid Witch Coral Ji and Kino Kennedy stay in the territory to take care of the nobles in the territory, while she brought the army supported by the Church and the Mango Tooth Kingdom, plus the Blue Fantasy Witch , the Great Knight Kelmo, the third generation vampire Wilson, the Hearthstone Witch and the new high-level professionals, went to the so-called Knight Competition.
Ivita looked at the information Tartax gave her on the desk.
Tartax explained to Ivita: "My lord, the so-called knight competition is actually a pastime for the knight class when they have nothing to fight. It is also an entertainment activity for ordinary citizens. In various The knights who win the knight competition will receive far more money and power than those on the battlefield."
"Such people are often valued by kings of other countries, and can usually even hold an official position."
Ivita nodded, this is probably similar to the martial arts of the Celestial Dynasty on earth.
However, the knight competition is a competition held spontaneously in various places.
Tartax said: "But I don't know what the knight competition held by the pirates will be like. It may turn into a farce of a group of seafood... Well, I'm sorry, sir, I shouldn't be on such a serious occasion with You are kidding."
When he saw Iveta giving him a confused look, he immediately explained. "Generally, when a knight competition is held, provocations, accidents and riots are often prone to occur. Because the organizer of the competition needs to gather a bunch of warriors in one place, some troops are needed to supervise the competition."
"So you can bring armies into the game."
"I guess this game will eventually turn into a farce of pirates fighting each other. Your best way is to stay safe and wait for those lunatics and idiots to kill each other."
Ivita nodded. "I think so too."
Tartax said to Ivita: "But it is difficult for things to go as we wish. There are two big variables."
"One, the two unidentified Sea Spirit Witch and Tide Witch. We don't know how the situation will change with their presence."
"Second, since you are now the count of the Holy Empire, the captains of the Blacklight and the Nightmare may do something to you, maybe to woo you, or maybe to be hostile. In any case, please be careful, I will be on the territory. Waiting for your good news. If you are trapped there, I will ask the Iron Mountain Grand Knight to lead the army to support you immediately."
Yvetta drummed her fingers on the table, nodded and said, "I see, you did a good job, Tartax."
"You go down. I will consider the two situations you mentioned in detail and come up with a solution as soon as possible."
…
Two days later, Ivita brought her troops to the entrance of the small town of Hattings.
He was accompanied by the Hearthstone Witch, Goken Knight, Robinson Knight, Face-saving Priest, Kelmo Knight and many other high-level professionals, as well as more than 600 soldiers.
The small town of Hattings, where the knight competition was held, was originally very small, with only a few hundred townspeople living in it.
But now, very rough and random temporary buildings have been built everywhere outside the town. They are simple buildings made of bamboo, light branches and stones. They seem to be for foreign soldiers to live in. This kind of building is still oval. It is shaped like this, probably for the convenience of construction.
It seemed that the organizers felt embarrassed and used bare temporary buildings to entertain guests, so these simple oval buildings were also tied with many colorful cloth strips.
On the buildings where distinguished guests lived, there were even some expensive silks from the East hung on them. They also used rubies and sapphires to hang on these silks as a luxury.
These ugly but expensive buildings fully demonstrate the pirates' vanity, poor aesthetics and the exaggerated wealth they robbed.
At the gate of the town, there was a team of about 500 people. They arrived in front of the town of Hattings almost at the same time as Ivita's troops.
Because both armies were blocked at the entrance of the town, no one could get in, so Ivita asked Knight Kelmo to go to the opposite army to inquire.
Soon, Knight Kelmer rode his black horse back to the front of Ivita's army, followed by three young men riding white-fronted war horses.
Knight Kelmer said to Ivita: "Your Majesty, that army is the army of Countess Miriam Simic, but she said that you are the new earl, so she is willing to let your army enter the town first. Choose a location."
Iveta frowned and said to Wilson and the Hearthstone Witch beside her: "Countess Miliri Simic, she is a woman who can actually stabilize the position of the count. The pirate world values strength the most. It seems that she is not Simple."
"As expected, anyone who can become an earl on Cross Island should not be underestimated. We are entering the knight competition this time to drive away the wolf and devour the tiger, but there are too many variables and we don't know what will happen."
The Hearthstone Witch said proudly: "As long as they are ruthless, anyone can secure their position. All the upper-class people have my character, otherwise how can they achieve great things!"
Wilson is already a vampire with the strength of a fourth-level professional. At this moment, he is very proud, so he said to Ivita: "Sir, even if there is an accident on the field, I can protect you and let you escape unscathed. "
protect me?
Ivita glanced at Wilson with a smile. With the soul palace, she had become one of the best wizards in the magical black forest.
He doesn't need any protection.
But since his subordinates are so confident, there is no need for him to refute.
Ivita said to Knight Kelmer: "Can you tell the countess for me, just say thank you for her humility."
Who knew that Knight Kelmo had an unusual expression on his face.
Behind him, a countess wearing a special black and red armor for women, Miliri Simic, walked out from behind him. Countess Miliri Simic smiled at Ivita and said: "No need to bother. Your knight, I have come here. I heard that a young man killed the madman Isenhanjian, occupied his territory, and was recognized by the church and the empire, so I wanted to I came here to meet you, who knew you were really young."
Countess Miliri Simic said: "It's an honor to meet you. You can call me Miliri, Mr. Augustus."
Ivita looked at the countess in surprise.
In fact, she is in her early twenties, has short blond hair, looks very easy-going, and has calluses on her palms. She is probably about the strength of a formal knight.
For her age, this strength is pretty good.
After all, even if you have sufficient resources, you still need enough talent to continue on the path of a knight.
But Iveta noticed that there was a trace of anxiety in the eyes of the seemingly aloof and free-spirited Miliri Simic, as if she was anxious about something.
Iveta guessed that this guy came to her not because he had nothing to do, but because he had something to ask for help.
But now the countess was hesitant to tell him her true request because of some concerns.
She is very confused.
Ivita easily thought of her concerns, and with the idea of testing her to see if she had any value, she said to her: "Let's talk while we walk, Miliri. Ms. Miliri, I am also new to Cross Island." , maybe I don’t understand many of the rules on Cross Island. So if I offend you with my words, please forgive me. After all, I just came to this island, and I don’t understand many of the etiquette and unspoken rules on this island.”
Countess Miliri Simic rode a white horse and followed Ivita.
Hearing Ivita's words, Countess Miliri Simic's lips twitched. You are still new here.
When you first arrived, you almost turned Cross Island upside down.
Countess Miliri Simic heard the overtone from Ivita's strange words. Ivita was telling her that he had no collusion or alliance with any of the count-level forces on Cross Island. .
He can now be said to be completely innocent in the politics of Cross Island.
Knowing this, Countess Miliri Simic made up her mind to continue talking to Ivita. She organized her language and told Ivita: "My father died about half a year ago, so I Only in this way can I inherit the position of earl. As the eldest daughter of the Simic family, my family has no male son, so I am forced to inherit the title of earl."
Ivita nodded and said, "Well, yes, but does the law allow women to inherit titles?"
Knight Gaoken, who had been on the left side of Ivita, interrupted and said: "Ivita, the inheritance law on this Cross Island has always been chaotic. Law? The unscrupulous people on this island don't take the law seriously at all. Law only exists in the civilized world. Useful, not useful here.”
Countess Miliri Simic nodded and said, "That's true. Later, Count Silkler on the Black Light and Count Lozrolov on the Nightmare proposed to my family."
Ivita nodded, "Well, very good, what next?"
Countess Miliri Simic sat on the horse, clenched her fists, and said: "My father died in an unknown way. It should have been killed by one of these two people. Then, they thought You want to marry me to gain my territory. How can I be willing to do so."
"But after I rejected them, what I got was even more severe oppression and pressure. The nobles in my territory even opened a meeting of nobles and forced me to marry one of them in exchange for their control of my territory. The protection of the nobles above."
Countess Miliri Simic said angrily: "I need some allies to fight against them and stabilize the nobles in my territory."
"If possible, I feel like your Excellency can be my ally."
Ivita gave her a look of sympathy. This was the disadvantage of territory coming from inheritance. Obtaining territory through inheritance meant that she did not have much control over the territory.
Especially Simic is a woman.
Then it would be easier to be bullied by the local nobles.
Now the nobles in her territory even dared to organize directly into a parliament to discuss her marriage through parliament.
This is where the territory comes back to bite the lord.
But Ivita didn't want to agree to Simic's request. It was one thing to form an alliance with a mature ally, but it was another thing to form an alliance with a countess who was too busy to take care of herself and could not even command her own territory.
Forming an alliance with her doesn't mean much to him, and he even needs to devote some of his energy to protecting her.
Iveta quickly judged, and he pretended to be sorry and said to her: "What a pity, Ms. Miliri Simic. Although I also want to help you, I am afraid that my control of my territory is not the same as yours." The same thing. For me right now, I just want to control my own territory."
"I don't have the guts to go against the terrible Counts Shirkler and Lozrolov."
"so……"
Countess Miliri Simic sat on horseback and smiled awkwardly. "I know, I can't blame you."
"I was too abrupt."
She glanced at Ivita with disappointment. It seemed that her intelligence was wrong. This Ivita had no ambition or courage at all.
She really asked the wrong person.
Ivita said to Wilson and the thoughtful Hearthstone Witch beside her: "You ask the army to find buildings where they can live. Knight Goken and Knight Robinson, you are responsible for the defense of the camp."
Suddenly, the earth shook. Ivita turned around and saw a huge pirate ship sailing on dry land in the distance. Even the sails were black. The pirate ship crashed into the mountains on the land and dug grooves in the ground. Slowly drove over.
There was a torch on the top of the mast of the pirate ship, a torch burning with black flames.
Countess Miliri Simic exclaimed: "It's the Black Light!"
…
On the Black Light, Count Sirkel stood on the deck. As a senior wizard, he always had a gloomy face and was unpredictable. Even his subordinates were afraid of him.
Count Hirkel said to the first mate on the ship: "What did the spies say?"
The first mate said to Count Sirkle: "It's just as your Excellency guessed. We deliberately let Countess Miriam Simic get close to that Ivita to test the two of them, but that Ivita is very timid. Look, We don’t need to think too much about this foreign land man.”
Count Shirkler's face was gloomy. "Damn it Millie."
"I gave her many chances, shameless bitch."
"She actually thought she could escape my clutches. Her father is dead, and a little girl, Fianzi, actually thought she could escape my clutches."
