Under normal circumstances, it is rare to leave a banquet early, especially at a banquet held by the Marquis of Verzant.
But today is obviously different.
As Mirtesa leaves, more than a dozen guests leave one after another. A keen person can discover that these people control the large and small armies of Gelffindor and its surroundings. This is the prelude to the storm that will come to Gelffindor. Tonight.
…
In the castle of Mirtesa, the two officers responsible for military intelligence were scolded bloody, and even Charlie was made to stand aside and face the wall.
“Then what do you do with so much tax support?
ah?
If there hadn't been a fallen noble who desperately needed credit to restore his title, the city would have been infiltrated into a sieve and we didn't even know it! If these rats succeed in their conspiracy, do you want to use your heads to go to the imperial capital to plead guilty? ! "
The officer following behind snickered.
"You're laughing your ass off! Do you think the intelligence matter has nothing to do with you?
What are your responsibilities? This is how you treat the people who entrust their safety to you. Our people’s lives are like lambs in the eyes of these villains. You are laughing so hard..."
Mirtesa was so angry that she didn't care about self-cultivation. She picked up the things next to her and smashed them.
The officer who was late with Xu Yang.
"What the hell are you still late for? Go to the right and face the wall!"
"Wait, um, come back, Cravenna."
Seeing Xu Yang's arrival, Mirtesa calmed down his anger a little. As the saying goes, family scandals cannot be made public, and these generals under his command cannot lose face in front of outsiders.
But now they were all facing the wall, and it would be even more humiliating to ask them to turn around, so Miltesa coughed twice.
"Cravenna, as long as you can wipe out these villains this time, you will definitely get a lot of credit. However, these guys are always good at hiding. The evil god gives them the ability to conceal their vision, so I hope to get your help."
"If there is any information in the future, I need you to share it as soon as possible."
Miltesa didn't ask Xu Yang's intelligence source. It would be a shame to ask someone else's intelligence source if he didn't find out.
Everyone has their own secrets. Cravenna neither enjoys the resources of Gryffindor, nor does the Eagle Territory belong to Gryffindor in a strict sense.
Therefore, Mirtesa used a more euphemistic approach. The same sentence also meant that Xu Yang could take credit for all subsequent eradication operations in terms of intelligence.
Mirtesa may not be good at conspiracy, but he has decades of experience in running the army when it comes to rewards and punishments. Xu Yang was naturally willing to help after what he said.
"I will do my best."
Mirtesa nodded, very optimistic about the sudden rise of this declining noble.
"I will send Charlie to communicate with you later. If Charlie needs any other help from you, you can also join in as appropriate. After this incident, I will personally go to the table to help you restore your title."
As the ultimate in local power, Mirtesa's voice is no lower than that of ordinary princesses.
According to the tradition of title restoration and inheritance, achievements are recognized by local lords and then spread to the imperial capital and heard by the royal family. This is the real way to be recognized by the royal family and inherit the glory of the ancestors. It is also the way that Phil initially planned to recommend to Xu Yang. .
"Thank you, General."
"Ahem, then go ahead and do your work. I will ask Charlie to contact you for subsequent arrangements."
Originally, Miltesa planned to take this opportunity to let Xu Yang and his subordinates get to know each other, but now that everyone except Xu Yang is facing a wall, it seems that the next meeting will not go well.
…
late at night.
It's time for vampires to eat in the city.
Since swearing allegiance to Xu Yang, Krulru has abandoned the way he used to manage his power in the first place.
First of all, continuing to attack higher-level nobles is likely to attract the attention of the church, and the benefits of upward penetration are already very low.
Secondly, the master told Krulru to protect himself. Of course, Krullu could not appear in front of other men in that manner. From that moment on, Krullu only belonged to the master.
Recently, Kluru has truly managed the identity of a declining noble. Through the little noble slaves and blood descendants in his hands, Klulu has accumulated a lot of reputation in the noble circle of the Viscount Baron.
Although Kruru is the slave of his master, he also longs for the day when he can stand beside his master in an upright manner.
Vampires need the freshest arterial blood to absorb nutrients, preferably freshly bursting from the heart.
However, Krululu is a very economical person about food. He usually gathers thirteen slaves to bleed, and then thoughtfully uses blood magic to help stop the wounds, although this does not mean that these slaves will really have a good end.
Kluru needs blood, but he also doesn't hate human food.
In some legendary novels with little knowledge, vampires are often described as monsters without the ability to digest.
In fact, this is not the case, especially for Krulru, the consumption of maintaining the body of the blood god is so great that if Krullu does not eat a lot, he will fall into a weak state of 'anemia'.
In addition to blood, Krululu often needs a lot of meat to maintain body consumption. The stronger the body, the stronger the curse will be and the stronger the desire to eat.
However, Ariel's blessing weakened the curse to a certain extent, which also reduced Krulru's food intake by more than half. With the blood in the wine glass, he only needed to add seventeen or eight meat dishes.
"Looks like you had a nice dinner, Krulru."
"I'm sorry! I usually only eat bread...
Ah, it turned out to be the master. It scared me to death. "
This was the first time for Krulru to see Xu Yang use ether teleportation. He was almost frightened out of his ancestral stunt, so he quickly took a sip to calm down his blood pressure.
Xu Yang rolled his eyes, why didn't he realize that this guy was so timid at first?
"Kluru, I have something to ask you. Have you investigated the tribunal before?"
The Gelfondo Tribunal is in charge of the judicial power of Gelfondo. It is the enforcer of local laws and one of the few means for the empire to restrain and manage local lords.
Starting from the administrative level, the Inquisition is subordinate to the city lord and is also supervised by the three marquis lords.
But conversely, no single lord can actually do anything to the Inquisition, so Phil's position is not insignificant.
"Gelffindor Inquisition? Krulru doesn't know much about it. They don't seem to have anything worth noting."
This is indeed the case. The tribunal handles a lot of power, but its functions are all about legal judgments, notarizing contracts, and more importantly, property rights disputes.
For the evil organizations, they have to face Mirtesa who controls the military power, Verzant who controls the financial power, and the various righteous churches who hate evil.
As for laws, Keynes's laws are orders established under power. This is not what evil organizations care about.
In the eyes of most evil organizations and sects, as long as the rule changes, the laws will just drift with the tide. The Inquisition does not have financial resources or strong combat power, so it naturally does not pay attention.
After all, in some cities that are secretly controlled by evil gods, the Inquisition is still running stably.
"Recently, please pay more attention to the Inquisition, especially Phil Irwin. I want to know what she did after she came to Gelffindor?"
"In addition, there is also the situation of Princess Hetty Cecil, especially whether there is someone around her who claims to be the Cravenner family."
"Okay master, Krulru promises to complete the mission."
"Master, will Xu Yang stay for dinner and spend the night?"
Xu Yang glanced at Krululu's dining table. Most of the cooking ingredients were relatively fresh. As a well-cooked lover, these foods were still too advanced for Xu Yang.
"When this matter is over, there will be a reward."
"Krull will look forward to it, my master."
