Chapter 583 - 29: Ingrid’s Virtue and the Visit of a New Knight Order
But now accompanying Su Li in practice clearly takes up all her time.
You must know, she is still the witch with the highest yield in the territory!
Usually, the output of a Forest Witch’s treehouse is about several dozen Golden Crowns or over a hundred Golden Crowns per month. Mainly because their creation of witchcraft tools also requires inspiration, just like how a nun casting divine requires Divine Grace.
However, under the Holy Purple Vine Tree, Ingrid, this Forest Witch, is simply brimming with inspiration. For instance, items like the Destiny Talisman, she might usually only be able to make one or two in a year. Similar to how a Druid makes one Blood of the Earth Potion per year. But under the Holy Purple Vine Tree, Ingrid can make at least one every week.
So this little witch is simply the richest little tycoon in the territory, with Golden Crowns in hand numbering not just in thousands, but likely surpassing 10,000.
Specifically how many, Su Li never paid attention, he never asked. But Su Li is very clear, if the territory’s finances really couldn’t hold, Ingrid would definitely take all the wealth out of her jewelry box to help him through the tough times.
In this situation, having only her as the courtier, indeed delays her solitary cultivation and causes a huge impact on the development of the territory.
Having her focus fully on creating talismans and rings could significantly alleviate the predicament of the equipment shortage among the territorial knights.
Su Li is still quite concerned about the army, currently, even the high-level directly affiliated attendants in the territory, only about 120 people can be fully equipped, owning weapons, armor, talismans, rings, and badges all complete.
In this period, even he has donated quite a lot of blood.
Archibald taking Philis away still brought significant changes to the territory.
At least Su Li’s mentality has changed, truly not wanting to witness such a scene once again.
He’s fighting so hard now, just to lead troops into Sulande Province as soon as possible, to rescue his own woman and blood.
After all, there are two of his women and a child there.
If it weren’t for this upheaval, there wouldn’t just be Ingrid as the only courtier left accompanying her.
Hilude didn’t say, but Su Li also knows, her desperate practice is also not wanting this kind of thing to happen again.
Then Su Li raised his hand, gently stroked Ingrid’s head of smooth blue hair, and smiled saying: "I understand you want to help me expand the territory. But this matter can’t be settled so casually, we must find suitable candidates. But I promise you, I’ll start searching now."
Ingrid nodded, she also knew that the candidates for courtiers must be carefully selected, she didn’t want to find a woman with a bad temperament either, messing up the simple current relations.
As the two were speaking, they suddenly noticed Freya returning. The Female Knight Commander had been tied to the bed for a day starting from yesterday, with her hands bound, and adorned with Sado’s brass bell.
So while practicing, she was utterly limp, and after drying the bedding with Ingrid today, she left the manor.
Generally, she would stay in the mansion in the Wallflower District for a morning to recover her strength, then continue to work at the Knight Order’s garrison in the afternoon. If there is no pressing matter, she shouldn’t have left.
So Su Li split from Ingrid and looked towards the returning Female Knight.
When not in bed, Freya is the coldest among everyone, her style is just as sharp and straight as a sword. Without waiting for Su Li to ask, she directly said: "Lord, good news, the Greenfield Knights have arrived."
"Greenfield Knights?" Even if Su Li is indifferent about doctrines, he still understands the important Knight Order of the Sun Goddess Church.
The Greenfield Knights are precisely a religious Knight Order under the Church of the Sun Goddess, a powerful Knight Order on the same level as the Flame Sun Knight Order.
But they are rarely recognized as Tongliao by other knights, because they gave up all lances and two-handed swords, and all members switched to using bows and arrows.
In the battle against the Green Dragon, the territory had several members of the Greenfield Knights, who bent their bows and shot arrows on the city walls, simply a killing machine on the battlefield, with many climbing vine-covered monsters having their heads pierced by their arrows, falling from the city walls.
On such a suitable battlefield terrain, each Greenfield Knight killed dozens of monsters and were truly stars on the battlefield.
Freya nodded, saying: "They have already arrived at our Silver Spring Valley. Grand Master Constantine sent someone to the garrison to notify you in advance."
Su Li quickly straightened his attire, buttoned up his collar, collected his unruly demeanor, and became solemn. He said to Freya: "Please convey my gratitude to Grand Master Constantine. I will prepare to meet with the members of the Greenfield Knights in the Bauhinia Palace. Do you have their records? Can you introduce them to me in detail so I can prepare?"
Freya immediately followed behind Su Li, heading towards the Bauhinia Palace, while introducing: "The Greenfield Knights, in the name of Her Majesty War Goddess Violet, devote themselves to the protection of Talabheim. They are truly well-trained warriors, fighting in the fields and forests of their homeland. Although they rarely leave the borders of Talabheim, their skills are equally applicable in places from the great forest to the Drakwald Peaks. Though Greenfield Knights come from all over the world, they share a common motivation: serving the Goddess and protecting the people."
