Oops, I became the witch's substitute

Felin shook his hand: "Dear Sir Serena, as your kind adjutant and part-time logistics minister, I have to tell you that for your safety, I have contacted ten Riel mercenaries. I will arrive in a few months as your personal guard. You don’t need to worry about the money, it will be borne by me. I personally have plans to establish long-term cooperation with them.”

Serena looked confused: "Then who has the command?"

Feilin replied: "When we are in Kalan, of course, you have full authority to command them. When you come back from Kalan, please don't interfere with their affairs."

The Riel mercenaries are a well-known northern fighting nation. They come from the polar regions and have received brutal training since childhood. They are more powerful than the Spartans of previous generations and are artistically made Spartan warriors in movies and TV shows. If given the opportunity, they can truly dare to fight. The kind where three hundred people guard Hot Spring Pass alone.

"Are you finally going to stop pretending?" Serena moved slightly closer to Feilin, looking face to face with a sense of warning. "I accept your help, but if I find out what conspiracy you are trying to use Feili's identity to plot, I will... …Expose your true colors and arrest you personally.”

Felin stepped back and said, "Yes, Lord Knight."

Feilin is not rigid in his work, but he has a bottom line. He is not stingy with money when posting notices in the association, but interviews are required. Under the influence of the ability to deceive, every soldier who has been interviewed has a decent professional ability, but the film will have a little impact on their spirit.

First, overcome fear and ensure morale. Second, do not harass the masses or plunder. Third, abide by contracts and obey orders. Fourth, do not escape easily.

Every time Feilin interviews someone, he will say something special: "Finally, in order to wish us a happy cooperation, please touch your chest and say with conscience, I will abide by the contract, thank you."

Many people would wonder why Feilin did this. Feilin simply explained that he was a mage. Most of these people would be wondering if some kind of contract had been established and would be more cautious.

There is still a difference between Feilin's field of deceit and traditional hypnosis APPs. His interference is to make people feel that they think so subjectively at the time, and to make themselves have some conscience. In the future, this conscience will at most act as a placebo. , rather than a strong ideological seal like a hypnosis APP or a ring.

If you really use the realm of deception to continuously control a person, you will have to consume magic power to maintain the power of deception, and you cannot get rid of it once and for all.

Morrigan's nature was not bad, but the people below made things bad. Feili just corrected her in time and changed her mind. Later, the child finally accepted the fact that she was a goddess.

As for why we should interfere with the mercenaries' contracting ideas, it is because the mercenaries in this world are no different from the previous life. Even the famous mercenaries often fight for money, betray back and forth, run with the wind and against the wind, and a bad person The mercenaries are often the scapegoat in the pit, causing public excrement. But no matter what, mercenaries are still much better than pitchfork farmers.

With Felin's advancement, the recruitment plan went much smoother than when Serena fought alone. Serena has a rigid personality, but she also knows how to adapt, but after all, she is too upright to tolerate those undisciplined adventurers. Without the help of magic, restraint The ability is also greatly reduced.

The people recruited after Feilin intervened looked much better. With the equipment provided by the royal family, the armed group finally looked like a regular army.

Immediately afterwards, another trouble lay ahead. Now that the number of infantry was gradually replenished, what should the cavalry do? The cavalry on the battlefield are not ordinary horses. The price list of the war horses is listed. Not to mention Serena hiding her face, even Felin has a headache.

As for Serena herself, her war horse is not the best, but it is also an excellent thoroughbred horse. The value of a single horse is more expensive than all the equipment on her body combined.

"We calculate a bull in Miriam at 68 gold. A better war horse is 23 times that of a bull, which is 1564 gold." After a simple calculation, Felin said, "In addition to the horse for riding, a cavalry should also prepare Spare war horses, plus a pack horse.”

Serena raised her hand: "Where's the cheaper one?"

Feilin flipped through the prices he had investigated in the past few days: "The cheapest war horse costs around 800 gold, and it can't go any lower. In terms of price, you may not be able to afford a top pureblood war horse even if you spend all the money you have at home. If there is a war and the horse dies, well, for an ordinary little knight, he is basically bankrupt."

In addition to BMWs, there are also hybrid BMWs such as unicorns, griffins, and dragons in this world. In addition to being brave, top horses are also truly humane, with special talents, magic, and magic resistance. Ability, will not be easily frightened, nor will it rush into traps with its head covered, this kind of horse is priceless.

Serena thumped and held on to the wall: "Then let's reduce the number of cavalry? For example, let's use them for the Riel people you hired."

⒊Ⅰ Erpa Yi Si Yi San Research

Feilin scratched his face: "Well, we have to find another sponsor. I think Feilin must have a way."

At this point, we can only move out the large one, no, the small one is here to use.

Feili has a good reputation and many friends. The person she is looking for next is neither a royal family nor a witch. Instead, she goes to the border city overnight to find Arabelle, who is in the spotlight.

These succubi are launching new projects and are seeing initial results, becoming the first to reform succubi.

The first batch of succubus trainees began to attract fans, and the audience gradually increased when performing at the succubus' own theater. However, after Feili left, the succubi gradually fell into creative difficulties and could not write any new songs.

This matter, how should I put it, forcefully moving the idol industry to the magical Middle Ages, not to mention that it is too advanced, but the performance as a succubus is indeed attractive.

In order to open up the situation, Arabel intends to train the team to focus on traditional singers. The industry prospects described by Feili do show some, but not much. Because of many problems such as underdeveloped information and no network, the limitations are huge and quite challenging.

But no matter how difficult it is, having fellow succubi become idols is better than accompanying guests. Arabelle also saw the longing for the stage among her fellow succubi, and began to think about the next development path.

"Damn it, there is a lack of good songs after all." The process of exploring the market and finding users was painful. Arabelle gritted her teeth and persisted. At this time, Feili suddenly wrote a letter saying that she would come to visit.

Sure enough, within a few days, Feili came. The visit was just a chat. They didn't exchange a few words when they met, and then they suddenly started talking about the problem of the demon clan.

Feili looked at Arabelle seriously: "You know the demons in your demon clan, those cold-blooded and ruthless guys."

Arabelle didn't know why: "I know, what's wrong?"

Feili said: "Then do you know Karan?"

Arabelle immediately distanced herself from the relationship: "Demons are demons and succubi are succubi. Besides, there are other races of monster girls in the demon race. You can't just say that one race does bad things and just include us."

Feili immediately put on a smile, faced Arabelle, hugged her arms and leaned into her arms: "I'm not here to accuse the enemy, but I have something to ask for. According to our intelligence network, we found that Pandora, the witch of disaster, is likely to Just as Karan is active behind the scenes, a friend of mine is recruiting an expeditionary force. The number is not large, and it probably requires dozens of war horses. I would like to ask you for a favor. "

Arabelle was shocked: "Huh? No, you are taking me as a scapegoat. This money..."

Feili immediately waved her hand: "I'm not here to rob, but to trade, trade~. I asked for what I want, and it's your turn."

Arabelle looked down at Feili's hand holding her, and then put her arm around Feili's waist: "Okay, stay and have a few drinks with me now, and we can talk slowly."

Feili forced a smile and said: "That's just for drinking and chatting. Let's talk about it, Boss Arabelle, what do you want?"

Arabelle snapped her fingers, and a succubus immediately appeared and brought a bottle of red wine and two glasses: "Business opportunity."

The two opened the expensive red wine and drank it slowly. At first, they did not jump into the topic directly. Instead, Arabelle talked about the difficulties encountered by the idol group she organized during this period. Feili also explained it to her one by one based on the contemporary environment.

It is true that there is no network and no fast communication channels, but can't these problems be partially solved by magic? Could it be that the earliest singers and celebrities in previous lives came from shouting in the streets?

"About these, I am studying the gramophone, using magic to record the sound, and burn it into a disc, so that the audience can take it home and enjoy it again and again." Feli ignored Arabelle's complaints and began to explain her plan, "After the phonograph, there is the image crystal , modified into a square projection screen, you can record your performance live and take it home to watch again and again.”

Arabelle is still calculating.

Feili struck while the iron was hot: "Gramophones can be sent to pubs, coffee shops, nightclubs, and even Dream Demon's stores. Your idol team has many songs. If users want to listen to the songs, they have to put in coins. Customers don't have to buy them. They It can be rented or even used for free, and the video crystals can be sold directly to anyone who can afford them according to different modes. In addition to watching your performances, they can also produce various documentaries, battlefield news, and monsters. Science popularization, magic records, etc. If we cooperate, won’t there be a steady stream of gold coins flowing into our pockets in the future? Your succubi’s employment prospects will also be extremely bright.”

Arabelle was still thinking. She felt that the pancake was big and filling but seemed edible, and she was undecided for a moment.

Chapter 119 Carol and Felin are studying alchemy

Arabelle is very rich, or the succubi themselves are very rich. The wealth accumulated by the Immortals through hard work and wisdom is unimaginable, and the brilliance of Arabelle and the others lies in circulating money, except in the city. In addition to investing in construction projects, they also annexed land in other places and became the shadow master behind some manors.

Feili drank with Arabelle all night, and signed a cooperation agreement. The military expenses were sponsored by the succubus, and the war horses were provided by the succubus. From now on, the gramophone and record technology produced by Feli would be given priority to the succubus, and the prerequisite for the cooperation was Arabelle first wanted to see the prototype of the magic device.

Feilin, who was far away in the royal capital, got the news immediately and went to Carol's workshop to inquire about the progress. Carol said that she was working on it. Not only did she create a new folder, but she also drew the drawings. She was currently rubbing the parts by hand to prepare for assembly.

Other workshops had to rely on lathe stamping to make parts, but Carol made them directly by hand. Is alchemy really omnipotent?

"Come here and help me, Feilin." Carol said unceremoniously. The efficiency of one person was still a bit low, so she asked Feilin to be her assistant. "It's too boring. Pass me something and then talk to me."

Feilin obeyed and helped, and was quite surprised: "Aren't you always like this?"

Carol asked: "Yes, I like to be quiet. Having less relationships with others can reduce unnecessary troubles. I can count the number of people I know on one hand during the same period, but in this hotel, I have Isn’t it interesting to have a premonition that you will soon become more than one hand’s acquaintance?”

"That's true, there are all kinds of interesting people in the hotel now." Feilin also feels happy, because his circle of friends plan is about to be completed. As Feili, he will increase his contacts, continue to get to know stronger people, and cooperate with them in transactions. There are more powerful opportunities to obtain higher-level magic than in the family.

Carol glanced at Feilin with her peripheral vision: "I almost forgot to introduce you, Feilin store manager~ You only know that I am an alchemist. I haven't said much about my origin. Aren't you curious and don't ask? "

Feilin shrugged: "You are the person Feili brought back, and you can feel trustworthy after getting along with me. That's enough."

Carol was not satisfied: "Actually, I escaped from the theocratic country. Do you know the country ruled by Lan God?"

Theocratic states are very common in this world. They combine politics and religion and are quite special. Sometimes they move towards a constitutional monarchy, but the subject of the monarch is the god himself. Sometimes it is a parliamentary system, but there is also the concept of the true god above his head.

Lanshen Church belongs to the latter. The incarnation of wind is everywhere. God does not appear in front of people with specific concepts, but only responds to some prayers. Under the substantial blessing of Lanshen, this country has good weather, few monsters, and strong national power. It is an exaggeration to say that the land area is the size of eleven Arians, and it is quite authoritative in the secular world.

The reason Felin knows this country is that the other side also has an Inquisition. They are more powerful and ruthless than Arius's Inquisition. Although the inquisitors seen by the outside world will perform their duties correctly, once they are convicted of heresy and heresy, they will It will inevitably suffer a devastating blow.

"The alchemy passed down in my family was considered a threat to the power of the gods, and was suspected of being able to produce divine power, so I was expelled. Even my father was tied to the stake. He was my only relative..." Ka When Luo Er said this, she slowed down her movements.

Feilin was stunned by the sudden announcement, and the hand handing him the parts was at a loss.

Carol took the parts from his hand: "Well, don't show that gentle expression to comfort me. It all happened a hundred years ago. If I don't tell people about it often, I'm afraid I'll take this experience to heart." Forget about it.”

Feilin felt a sense of openness and envy at the same time: "You have a tenacious will and a strong heart. May Qingyue bless your future."

Carol waved her hand: "Forget it, Qingyue Goddess is good, but we can't bear it, so why don't you protect me. I have a story, do you have some wine? After assembling this gramophone, let's go Have a few drinks.”

Felin agreed.

Carol added: "By the way, I'm asking a little presumptuously. Let's just treat it as a casual chat. Where is your family? I heard that he is from a big family in the Stellar Empire. He sounds like a rich man. Why are you running away? This small country place? Just because you like Feili? Tell me, don’t be embarrassed.”

Feilin was speechless for a moment and said angrily: "Why do I think a noble son would live in the countryside? Because I am not the eldest son. Everything in the family will belong to the eldest brother after I grow up. If I don't come out early and find another way out, I will be exiled in the future. and expulsion.”

Carol looked in disbelief: "You think I'm stupid, you have outstanding abilities. After the eldest son inherits, he usually arranges important positions for relatives, or simply uses them as watchdogs of the territory. You are so capable, your family is willing to let go Are you coming out?"

Feilin naturally replied: "Of course I have other reasons."

Carol inadvertently stopped what she was doing and looked sideways at Feilin: "Forget it if you don't want to say it. By the way, how is your family? I often see you writing letters to your family. The relationship must be very harmonious, right?"

A trace of displeasure flashed in Feilin's eyes. He was not a perfect spy agent, especially during the sensitive period of his career development recently. When Carol asked him, the memory came to his mind unconsciously and fleetingly disappeared in his eyes.

Carol quickly caught a trace of emotion and was surprised. It was exactly the same as when she saw Feili during the piano performance that day.

No wonder the look in Feili's eyes felt a little familiar at that time, but she couldn't remember it. With Carol's keenness and magic perception, if she recalled carefully, Felin and Feili had many similarities.

It’s not surprising that talents like water, fire, earth, wind, sun and moon in this world have duplicate owners, but are Feilin and Feili too similar? Fei Li calls herself a deceitful witch, which means that she is a liar in her title. However, a witch does not care about her deeds and her heart. There is no perfect person in the world. Fei Li does everything for justice and is a very good person. This is not necessary. Doubtful, but what about film?

"My home is relatively deserted. My mother returned to her parents' home depressed because she was neglected. I also have to make a living, so I can't compare to your free and easy life." Feilin only took two seconds to think of the words.

Carol also assembled the gramophone and pointed to the core: "Done, the main body is completed. Now we need to test the recording and playback functions. Film, please try to input magic power into this core, and then speak into this big speaker. , singing or wailing will do.”

After Carol finished speaking, she walked to the side with another notebook, set up the instrument for detecting magic power, adjusted it, pointed it at the record player, and carefully observed the data on it.

Feilin also realized at this time that Carol looked familiar and had nothing to say. In fact, she was testing him little by little. Since she didn't know what Carol was suspecting, Feilin began to carefully think about how to respond and silently started to deceive. field, trying to interfere with Carol's judgment with minimal force.

The manufacturing of the record player was very successful. Carol personally took the initiative and used above-average materials to perfectly replicate the record player of the previous life. The sound quality was also magically enhanced and clearer.

Feilin exerted full control, carefully injected magic power, used deceit to forge his own magic properties, and deliberately controlled his emotions.

Just when she thought of this, Carol suddenly said: "Don't be so nervous, just say something casually. Oops, I'm so sorry. It seems that it just brought back bad memories for you. I apologize. Let's drink later." When the time comes, I’ll tell you a long secret.”

Feilin smiled: "It's okay, I'll take a look..."

The two tested the phonograph repeatedly and recorded several discs. The magic machine for making discs also needed to be manufactured separately, and the entire set of equipment was developed by Carol.

"There is no problem with the machine, but because your skills are so good and the drawings are clear and simple, problems have arisen." Felin finally frowned.

What did Carol realize: "As for secrecy, don't worry. I have a hunch that this technology will be very marketable. Nobles of all sizes around the world will pursue this fashion, as well as Feili's piano sound. I will improve and encrypt it in the future. Leave it to me."

With that said, Carol took off the core that Fe Lin had just injected with magic power, stuffed it into her sleeve with her backhand, then immediately put her arms around Feilin's shoulders and pushed it out: "How is it? Sister, I am very skilled, right? Let's go, we have been busy all morning, let's Go have a drink, your treat."

Feilin was not angry: "This is my hotel!"

Carol is like a technology investor, with free food and accommodation in the store.

"By the way, what do you think of the Bahamut Summoning Book?" Carol leaned close to Felin's ear, "Is it useful?"

Filin calmly replied: "It has to be usable. If it can still be made, I really want a copy."

Carol shrugged: "It's time-consuming and labor-intensive to make. It's too troublesome. I plan to make the remaining star core into a weapon for myself. Well, I'll just make a harp. The name... is called the destroyer. How about it? ? Isn’t it very domineering?”

The two of them were busy until late at night. They were walking through the corridor and stopped at the corner. Felin discovered that Scathach was sleepwalking again. She had been sleepwalking a lot recently. She didn't realize what was happening. The same dream was happening in her. It was Felin's judgment to "urge her" repeatedly.

This time Felin was about to go over to wake Scathach, but as soon as he took a step, Carol grabbed his hand, hissed, and shook his head gently.

Carol took out a crystal and pointed at the crystal and Scathach. The two of them approached quietly. After getting closer, Carol's crystal glowed with black luster, as if to verify her idea. Carol pointed at it. With a flick of the tip, an unobservable string cut Scathach's fingertip, causing a drop of blood to fall on the black crystal.

The crystal seemed to have received some force. After a brief inspection, it began to shatter.

Carol used magic power to restrain the crystal and insisted on keeping it as it was: "The tracking is coming soon, and we are about to be discovered. Damn it, the other party is..."

Feilin felt the confrontation between the two magic powers. Carol was tracking the other party, and the other party also counterattacked with powerful force. The magic powers of both sides clashed in the small crystal, just like his own blood at that time. If he was not careful, the crystal It will explode.

This was a matter related to Scathach's safety. Felin frowned and immediately reached out to press on the crystal. The field of deceit wrapped around the crystal. The other party's tracking lost its target, and Carol's magic power took over.

The two talked quietly, and Carol was silent for a moment, took another look at Felin, and whispered: "Let me tell you the truth first, Scathach is a human-dragon hybrid, she has no parents, she is a humanoid... Chimera. In the bloodline, the dragon's blood dominates, and the remaining components include human and demonic blood. She should not be an ordinary mass-produced type, and the other party's research in the field of bio-alchemy should be better than mine. "

After saying that, Carol sealed the crystal, put it in her pocket, and said confidently: "Of course, if I get all the research information of the other party, it will take less than a minute to surpass that guy. I have always felt that bio-alchemy is against ethics. And have you heard of Cagliostro? He was originally one of the best alchemists of the last century. We are equal, he is better in the field of research, but in order to extend his life, he created clones My body has now transformed into a witch, and I am an out-and-out shady old man.”

Felin was about to slap Scathach on the shoulder, but after hearing these words, his feet almost softened, and he seemed to be able to control himself: "You don't have to figure out other people's preferences so clearly, let's figure out Scathach's things first."

Carol raised her finger: "The reverse tracking just now has some clues. If the direction is correct, the location is exactly Karan, which is where you and Serena plan to go. That big demon Anastasia is manufacturing dragons on a large scale. Beast, if I can capture one, I can better analyze whether it is related to Scathach."

Feilin was even more worried, not because of the big demons, but because he remembered Dorothy's words: "Are the technologies used by the demons really researched by themselves? There is the shadow of Pandora behind this, which is really worrying."

Then she gently picked up Scathach and sent her back to the room, wrapping her again with a false barrier. Carol also placed a small ornament next to the pillow. Although it could not defend against the other party's mental induction, it tried to make Scathach have some artificial dreams so that she would not be entangled in the same dream again.

At the same time, in the eastern region of the Kingdom of Kalan, the disaster was still expanding. The demon army had completed the capture of the capital, the king died in the battle to defend the city, and the princes and princesses were exiled and their whereabouts were unknown. Some of them were arrested and turned into stone statues and hung on the city gate in a humiliating or even insulting posture.

Anastasia sat on the throne bored, holding the blood-stained crown at her fingertips and throwing it up casually. At this time, another demon with a surging aura walked in, holding a magic wand made of bones in his hand, with a serious face.

"Congratulations on winning this war. Before you get bored, let me tell you something interesting. Our lost 'Dragon Marrow' has been found."
