Chapter 89 News from an acquaintance, trouble for the earl
Hill received the first report three days later.
When Liszt brought the puppet over, he acted a little strange.
"What's wrong?" Hill picked up the paper and smiled, "This is not an important thing to me, I just don't want to be kept in the dark."
Then, he knew why.
"Obastian, the devils are really dancing now!" Hill pressed his forehead and looked at the first picture.
This undead was very thoughtful in his work and carefully drew all the characters involved using copywriting techniques.
On the first picture, it is marked that this woman is the central figure in Obastian's big trouble.
Hill looked at this familiar face: My stepmother is really amazing!
Although she is much more beautiful, it is impossible for a magician like Hill to mistake the person he has seen.
Hill took the information and fell on the sofa: "Oh my God! Liszt, has there been any news about Edgar recently?"
"He is still in the knight school in the capital and is doing well." Liszt said, "I did not admit the wrong person, did I?"
"Ah, that's right." Hill was helpless, "Let me see, the beautiful countess from Noah, ha~ took her dead husband's large inheritance and ran to Obastian to seek her sister's fortune.
shelter?
The earl was so unpopular that he was killed!
Her sister? Where did she come from?
Oh, the number one loser who married this troubled Duke of Salar? A court count?
Ah! Yes, the king allowed Noah's refugees to enter Salar.
It's normal for her to seek refuge with her sister.
What a normal person! Where did Salar come from with so many ghosts and monsters?
Are the people around the members of the Salal royal family all spies?
If the king doesn't care about it, what are you waiting for? The Salar family will be wiped out? The Spencer family will take over?"
Hill flipped through the stack of papers angrily, looking back and forth several times before finally confirming what he saw.
"Just for one street?" he said incredulously, "or in the outer city? Obastian, are there any valuable commercial districts now?
Don’t those Salar want the king’s favor? People who want the right to inherit the throne still do such stupid things?”
Hill looked carefully.
The countess from Noah is beautiful and wealthy. She plans to buy some real estate and open a workshop and store after settling in Obastian.
She brought a unique silk product, which was very exquisite and more beautiful than the exquisite clothes of the undead.
However, the countess was afraid that her business would be too good and she would be bullied by others, so she asked her brother-in-law, who was a scumbag, to help negotiate with the Duke of Salar, and she was willing to give him part of the shares.
Duke Salar was very proud to carry the beauty back home, taking with him a large amount of her property.
It's a pity that although the beauty is good and the money is heavy, it can't compare with the attraction of Salar's throne.
The wife the Duke really wants is Olivia.
In order not to affect the Duke's great cause, the Countess reluctantly left. She just wanted to buy a commercial street in the outer city and build factories and shops together.
Obastian, after being cleaned up once, no one dares to act like a gangster anymore, so the outer city is very safe.
The Countess took out a large sum of money that was far more than the value of a commercial street and asked the Duke for help.
The Duke took half of it and gave the rest to another scoundrel, a great knight.
The people Olivia brought there were trained under this great knight.
Hill read this paragraph carefully. Indeed, Olivia just asked the Duke's men to help train these knights. She knew that these knights had eaten a lot of good things from Hill, and maybe some of them could be promoted to the Grand Army.
knight.
In that case, Olivia's status on the Duke's side will be higher.
Then, the great knight sent his knights to collect the houses one by one.
The few people who went out to Hill were the most honest ones. They probably only made some pocket money from it and didn't even show any respect to this great knight.
However, they were from outside. The Grand Knight knew that they were the priest's subordinates, and he never thought that they would make money. He just used them as a cover. At any rate, they were buying real estate in a serious way.
The others were taken advantage of by Duke Salar's men, who were professionals.
But it's not to the point where it's unbearable.
Until a refugee girl from Noah appeared. After she became a citizen of Salar, she used all her property to buy a small house. She went to the Church of Time and Space to worship devoutly every day. She was grateful to King Salar for sending the undead to save her life.
She was grateful to King Salar for giving her a place to settle down.
A young, helpless little girl, a poor person who dared not resist violence, gave a certain knight an evil heart.
I didn’t write down what he did specifically. Anyway, one morning, the disheveled little girl ran across most of the outer city and rushed directly to the door of the church. She cried out her grievances and tried to comfort Olivia when she came out.
While talking, he pointed at her and cursed, saying that the priest and the duke colluded to oppress the poor people, and her life was completely hopeless.
Then he hit his head on the church door and died.
Olivia was quickly locked up by other priests who came after hearing the news.
During this period, Duke Salar, who knew that he had caused a big trouble, put the responsibility on Olivia's men and killed them directly after being persuaded by his charming lover.
Unfortunately, the pastors of the church would not tolerate him throwing dirty water like this, and directly complained to the temple. It is said that William already knew about it and became furious. Everyone involved was required to undergo a camp test.
"What do they want to do?" Hill felt strange.
Does this kind of thing have any impact on William? It doesn’t have much impact on the Church of Time and Space, either?
At most, it would make the relationship between the church and the nobility worse.
Also, who rescued this countess? How did she get to Noah?
Is this the work of the aristocratic church again?
Let those nobles continue to secretly believe in the god of nobles?
The God of Time and Space has no need for this kind of belief. What is the use of alienating these nobles?
Originally, few nobles believed in this main god.
Hill thought for a while: "Go and ask Xueyunfeng if there has been any movement over Edgar recently."
When Hill arranged for Edgar, he did not hide it. If the countess wanted to know, there would be no difficulty.
However, at the beginning, Hill didn't want to save face for the count, so he directly stated that this was an unattended child, and he helped out out of good intentions.
Although he gave Edgar something, it seems that he also tricked the earl.
"Let's go and see how the count is doing lately?" Hill rubbed his hands, feeling a little embarrassed. This countess had a very dirty trick. Wouldn't the count be in bad luck already?
"And Edward's wife's brother, is he still alive recently? I remember there were rumors that when he was running for his life, he pushed his lover down and made her fall off the cliff, right?"
Otherwise, they would not have concluded that the lady was dead.
Hill looked at the information in his hand, which was in good order. He felt that there was nothing that could be added.
"Who gave this mission?"
"The rain of black roses falls into the mortal world. He happened to be arranging the shift of mage. When he saw the task, he ran away with his people." Liszt replied slowly, "Several other families also sent people to Kerslot. If Mr.
If there is no objection, I will give out the reward and post his reply by the way?"
"Okay." Hill suddenly smiled, "You said that I suddenly asked Xueyunfeng to investigate Edgar's affairs. Can these undead people connect everything? It's impossible for me to tell them directly."
"If they really want to compete with the Black Rose people." Liszt said honestly, "They haven't had much to do recently, they are all very busy.
The matter of Obastian has to wait for His Majesty the King's final decision. The nobles who live there do not dare to go to Kerslot, and there are more or less problems. It depends on what His Majesty the King thinks. It depends on whether he is willing.
We don’t want the Salar nobles to leave this last leeway.”
"Have their copies been completed?" Hill was quite curious.
"Not yet, it is said that it will have to wait for 7 days." Liszt replied quietly.
"Remember to help me inquire about the specific content." Hill said solemnly, "I will definitely be there again this time. If it is a big boss, I will not worry, but this time His Majesty the King was forced to do it. If he has a bad intention
When I have an attack, I don’t know what will happen.”
Liszt nodded seriously.
"We can inform the people in the territory about the death of those knights." Hill remembered, "Although they may not necessarily care about the well-being of these people who left, they at least want to know the outcome."
Liszt agreed softly, turned around and went out.
Hill was not going to care about Olivia, since she was just a fool who was kept in the dark.
Olivia has been found to have the qualifications of a mage since she was a child. Her so-called suffering is far different from that of ordinary daughters of small nobles.
The Countess was able to trick the people sent by the Krall family to Manton back then, so she would definitely be able to capture a little girl.
She lost in the first place not because of lack of ability, but because of lack of strength.
And my luck has not been very good.
Hill had no ill feelings towards her. After all, as far as the countess was concerned, her attention was only Manton. Hill's embarrassment was all caused by the count. As a stepmother, she had no need to care about a useless guy who would leave sooner or later.
But she was really unlucky, as her opponent Olivia came from Hill's territory.
The knights who were killed and used as scapegoats were all Hill's former subordinates.
Then Hill is a serious person and must find out the reasons for the death of these people.
She dared to stay in Obastian without fear of being recognized by people she knew before. The reason was that her appearance had changed so much that it seemed like she had been beautified several times. Even her parents might not dare to confirm her identity.
Even a legendary tower spirit like Liszt is a little afraid to confirm.
However, for a natural warlock like Hill, he has been blessed by the silver moon, and it is difficult for any fog to obscure his sight.
Hill recognized it immediately.
But if Hill doesn't plan to tell anyone about this lady, let's see how many clues the Dead can find!
