I was regarded as a demon god by a witch

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...

Not only would it cost tens of thousands of gold pounds, but it would also take ten to ten years.

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 Iron Mountain Knight, Mermaid Witch Coral Ji, and Chino Kennedy stay in the territory to take care of the nobles on the territory, while he brought the army supported by the Church and the Mangotooth Kingdom, plus the Blue Magic 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 that Tartax gave him 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 no battles to fight. It is also a kind of entertainment for ordinary citizens. In various The knights who win the championship in the knight competition will get much richer money and power status than those on the battlefield."

"Such people are often valued by the kings of various countries, and they can usually even become officials."

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 contest held by the pirates will look like. It may turn into a farce of a group of seafood... Uh, sorry, my lord, I shouldn't be in such a serious occasion and You are kidding."

Seeing Ivita showing him a puzzled look, he immediately explained. "Generally holding a knight competition is often prone to provocations, accidents, and riots. Because the host of the competition needs to gather a bunch of warriors in one place, part of the army is needed to take care of the competition."

"So you can bring armies into the game."

"I guess this game will eventually turn into a farce where pirates fight each other. Your best way is to protect yourself wisely and wait for those lunatics and idiots to kill each other."

Evita nodded. "I think so too."

Tartax told Evita: "But things are difficult to go as we want. There are two big variables in this."

"One, the two unidentified sea spirit witches and tide witches. We don't know how the situation will change with their existence."

"Second, since you are the Earl of the Holy Empire now, the captains of the Black Light and the Nightmare may do something to you, whether it is to win over you, or it may be hostile. In any case, please be careful, my lord, I will be on the territory Waiting for your good news. If you are trapped there, I will ask the Iron Mountain Knight to lead the army to support you immediately."

Evita tapped her fingers on the table, nodded and said, "I see, you did a good job, Tartax."

"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, Korken Knight, Robinson Knight, Good Face Priest, Kelmer Knight and many other high-level professionals, as well as more than 600 soldiers.

The small town of Hastings, where the knight competition was held, was originally very small, with only a few hundred townspeople living in it.

But now there are very rough and casual temporary buildings built everywhere outside the town. It is a simple building made of bamboo, not thick branches and stones. It seems to be for foreign soldiers to live in. This kind of building is still oval Shaped, probably for the convenience of construction, so it was designed like this.

It seems that the organizers also feel embarrassed, so they use bare temporary buildings to entertain guests, so there are many colorful cloth strips tied on these simple oval buildings.

On the building where the distinguished guests live, even a little expensive silk from the East is hung, and they also hang rubies and sapphires 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 another team of about 500 people who came to the front of the town of Hetings 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, the Kelmer knight rode his black horse and returned to the front of Ivetar's troops, followed by three young men on white-fronted war horses.

The Kelmer knight said to Ivita: "My lord, that army is the army of Countess Milly 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."

Ivita frowned, and said to Wilson and the Hearthstone Witch beside her, "Countess Millie Simic, a woman can actually stabilize the position of the count. The pirate world respects strength the most. It seems that she is not Simple."

"Sure enough, anyone who can become an earl in Cross Island should not be underestimated. We entered the knight competition this time to drive away wolves, but there are too many variables in it, and we don't know what will happen."

The Hearthstone Witch said proudly: "As long as you are ruthless, anyone can secure a seat. All the upper-class people have my personality, 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 Heavenly Palace, he has become one of the best wizards in the magical black forest.

He needs no protection.

But since his subordinates are so confident, there is no need for him to refute.

Ivita said to the Kell end knight: "Can you tell the countess for me, just say, thank her for her humility."

Unexpectedly, the knight of Kell's end had a strange expression on his face.

Behind him, a countess wearing a black and red armor specially made for women, Miliu Simic came out from behind him, Countess Miliu Simic smiled at Ivita: "Don't bother Your knight, I have come here. I heard that a young man killed that lunatic Isen Hanjian, and occupied his territory, which was recognized by the church and the empire, so I want to I came here to meet you, who knew you were really young."

Countess Millie Simic said: "It's an honor to meet you. You can call me Millie, Mr. Augustus."

Ivita looked at the countess in surprise.

In fact, she was only in her early twenties, she had short blond hair, she looked very easy-going, and she had calluses on her palms, she probably had the strength of a formal knight.

For her age, this kind of strength is not bad.

After all, even if you have sufficient resources, you need enough talent to go on the path of knights.

But Ivita found that there was a trace of anxiety in the eyes of the seemingly detached and free-spirited Milly 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, because of some concerns, is hesitating whether to tell herself her true appeal.

She is very confused.

Ivita easily thought of her concerns, and in order to test whether she was worth using, she said to her: "Let's talk as we go, Millie. Ms. Millie, I am also a newcomer to Cross Island. , Maybe I don’t understand many of the rules of Cross Island. Therefore, if I offend you, please forgive me. After all, I just came to this island, and I don’t know many etiquette and unspoken rules on this island.”

Countess Millie Simic rode a white horse and followed behind Ivita.

Hearing Ivita's words, Countess Miliri Simic's lips twitched. You are still new here.

As a newcomer, you are about to turn Cross Island upside down.

Countess Millie Simic heard the voice from Iveta's weird words. Iveta was telling her that he had no collusion or alliance with any count-level forces on Cross Island. .

Now, he can be said to be completely innocent in the politics of Cross Island.

Knowing this, Countess Millie Simic made up her mind to continue talking with Iveta. She organized the language and told Ivita: "My father died about half a year ago, so I As the eldest daughter of the Simic family, my family has no males, so I can only be forced to inherit the title of earl."

Ivita nodded and said, "Well, yes, but does the law allow women to inherit the title?"

The Gaukon knight who had been on the left back of Ivita interjected: "Ivita, the inheritance law on this cross island has always been chaotic. Law? The troublemakers on this island don't pay attention to the law at all. The law only exists in the civilized world. Useful, not useful here."

Countess Millie Simic nodded and said, "That's true. Later, Count Shirkler on the Black Light and Count Rozrolov on the Nightmare proposed to my family."

Ivita nodded, "Well, it's good, and then?"

Countess Millie Simic sat on the horseback, clenched her fists, and said, "My father died for no apparent reason, it should have been killed by one of these two people. Then, they thought Want to marry me to get my territory. How can I be willing."

"But after I rejected them, what I got in exchange was more serious oppression and pressure. The nobles in my territory even started a noble meeting and forced me to marry one of them in exchange for their respect for 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 sympathetic look. This is the disadvantage of the territory coming from inheritance. Obtaining the territory through inheritance means that you don't 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 dare to directly organize into a parliament to discuss her marriage through the parliament.

This is what the territory is eating back at 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."

"Nor do I have the guts to go up against the dreadful Earls Shirkler and Lozrolov."

"so……"

Countess Miliri Simic sat on horseback and smiled awkwardly. "I know, I can't blame you."

"It was me who was being too abrupt."

She glanced at Ivita in disappointment. It seemed that her information was wrong. This Ivita had no ambitions or courage at all.

She really asked the wrong person.

Ivita said to Wilson and the Hearthstone Witch who was thinking about it: "You let the army find a building that can live in, Cavaliers Goken, Cavaliers Robinson, you are responsible for the defense of the camp."

Suddenly, the earth shook, and Ivita turned his head to look, but saw a huge pirate ship sailing on the dry land in the distance. Even the sails were black. Slowly opened over.

There was a torch on the top of the mast of the pirate ship, a torch burning with black flames.

Countess Millie Simic exclaimed, "It's the Black Light!"

……

On the Black Light, Earl Sirkle stood on the deck. As a senior wizard, he kept a gloomy face and was unpredictable. Even his subordinates were afraid of him.

Count Hilckler said to the first mate on board: "What did the spies say?"

The first mate said to Earl Sirkel: "Just as your lord guessed. We deliberately put Countess Milly Simic close to that Ivita to test the two of them, but that Ivita is very timid. See Come on, we don't need to think too much about this foreign landman."

Count Hilckler's face was gloomy. "Damn Millie."

"I gave her many chances, shameless bitch."

"She really thought she could escape my grasp. Her father is dead, and a little girl actually thought she could escape my clutches."
