Lord of the People: Starting from the Goblins

Chapter 126 Engagement; Signs

Seeing that her husband was beaten with a bruised nose and a swollen face, the noble lady stood up in anger and panic. At the same time, she guarded her daughter Marilyn behind her, watching Lucian and Chen Tao who came in slowly from behind with vigilance.

"Who are you, how dare you attack nobles?!"

Lucian threw the group of tied up people on the hall floor, bent slightly to the lady with a decent smile and said,

"This is my Mr. Donald. This time he came to Oza City to inherit the mansion of the late Mr. Tang Ji, but as soon as he entered the mansion, he found that there were thieves who entered and occupied the place. Seeing us, Mr. Donald, is even more embarrassing." As a last resort, I, the housekeeper, had no choice but to do something."

Mrs. Armand's face turned blue and then pale. After hearing what Lucien said, she still didn't know what was going on.

Although guilty, Mrs. Armand still yelled with confidence,

"This mansion was paid off by Baron Tangji to our lord after he owed his debts. How can there be a thief? Now you broke into the baron's house without any reason and injured my lord. I want to report your situation to the noble abbot. Evil deeds! Will you"

Before Mrs. Armand finished speaking, Lucian slapped her as soon as she moved, forcing her to calm down.

"Lucien, control them directly."

Behind him came Chen Tao's voice.

"Of order, sir." Lucian paused, then calmly walked up to Mrs. Armand, stretched out his finger and pressed it on her forehead.

A ray of light flashed, and Mrs. Armand showed pain on her face. After the light dissipated, she looked at Lucian in horror.

At this moment, Chen Tao and his two daughters, Fei Yizinan and Fei Yizinan, have already left here and are familiar with the house.

Afterwards, Lucian branded Baron Armand and the servants and maids as spiritual slaves by means of a forced spiritual contract.

The reason why Lucian has this spiritual slave mark is that Chen Tao implemented open exercises and skill exchanges a long time ago, sorting out all the skills he has learned, as well as all the skills that can be taught, such as elves and orcs, and supplying the races in this territory study.

The people under his command have more means and skills, and it is also convenient for Chen Tao, who is the master of the territory, to use them.

In the courtyard at the back of the residence, in the gazebo, three people are sitting on stone chairs, looking at the small bridge and flowing water here.

"I know how to enjoy it."

Chen Tao couldn't help laughing as he looked at the artificially created small river and the colorful small fish raised in it.

With a thought, dozens of khaki irregular monsters suddenly appeared in the ground nearby. After the monsters solidified, they turned into the appearance of underground stalkers.

With a height of 1.6 meters [-], his skin is yellowish yellow, as if it will disintegrate into dust at any time, and his appearance has turned into a human form.

These underground stalkers were naturally brought by Chen Tao. They followed him all the way and stalked underground, taking care of the inconvenient troubles for him.

All of them are the elite of the stalkers, and their strength has all reached Bronze Level [-] or above, and their individual strength is no worse than that of Lucian.

"Renovate the underground here, and create several tunnels leading from here to the outside of the city."

After calling out the underground stalkers, Chen Tao ordered them.

Although there is almost no danger in hiding his identity as a baron, Chen Tao's character still made him cautiously implement multiple life-saving methods.

Although it is highly unlikely to be used.

These underground stalkers nodded respectfully to Chen Tao, and then, as if they had sunk into the soil, they started digging underground.

After sitting in the gazebo for a while, I saw Lucian leading Baron Armand, his wife, and servants over.

Coming to him, Lucien reported to Chen Taohui,
"Master, all of them have been marked as slaves, do you think there is anything else you want to order?"

"Let the baron come over and explain why."

After all, he is here to be the heir to the baron, so Chen Tao needs to have a little understanding of the original body's condition.

Lucian nodded, then waved to call for Baron Armand in the distance.

Armand came up with a look of fear, followed the master's instructions and began to tell the reason.

Probably, after Donald's father, Baron Tangy, died unexpectedly, Baron Armand, who had a good relationship with Baron Tangy during his lifetime, found an opportunity to let one of his sons be adopted by Baron Tangy, so as to occupy Tangy The property of Baron Ji.

After listening to what Baron Armand said, Chen Tao was also quite speechless.

There is really a lot of filth among the nobles, even good brothers and friends in the past can turn against each other because of some property.

"So, do you still send someone to kill me?"

After all, the late Baron Tangji had the son of the original owner, Donald, and his son was immortal. Even if he adopted a son by tricks, he would not be able to successfully inherit the property in the noble house.

Sure enough, as soon as Chen Tao asked this, Armand's face changed slightly, and panic flashed in the eyes of the lady behind him.

Lucien snorted coldly when he saw this, and Armand, who was controlled by the slave mark, suddenly had a splitting headache, and soon begged for mercy and told the truth.

Baron Armand had been helped by Baron Tangy, and he was not so heartless. He just planned to occupy the property of his good friend, but his wife Mary was vicious and secretly sent someone to get rid of Donald.

However, Donald's luck was obviously not very good. Before meeting the killer sent by Mrs. Mary, he met the human spies under Kisame's command ahead of time, and was directly captured and caught in the gravel collar.

"Maybe Donald is lucky, at least he can live in peace in the gravel collar now." Chen Tao thought to himself.

He was just borrowing Donald's identity, and there was no need to kill people to silence him. After all, after entering the gravel collar, he would probably have to work for Chen Tao, the lord, for the rest of his life. It didn't matter whether he killed him or not.

"My lord, I know a big secret your father is hiding."

Perhaps sensing the killing intent in Lucien's eyes, Armand panicked immediately, wanting to tell the secret he had learned in order to gain the right to live.

secret?Chen Tao didn't care a little bit, and waved his hand to dismiss him casually.

When Baron Armand saw this, his face changed, thinking that this meant that they were going to be dealt with, he hurriedly said in a panic,

"This secret is related to the Zijing family, please spare our family's life!"

Ok?Bauhinia family?Chen Tao felt a little familiar, recalled it for a while and immediately remembered it.

"You mean the Bauhinia family, one of the four major families in the kingdom?" Chen Tao's tone became slightly serious.

According to normal reasoning, the four major families occupying a large number of contacts in the kingdom may be involved with the people who are favored by the world's luck. in the eyes.

At least according to the news from the spies sent by the Broken Stone Leader, the four major families of the Skardo Kingdom are suspected to have eighth-level great sword masters sitting in the family.

And the eighth level of the Akasas world is equivalent to the golden level on the mainland of origin.

"Let's hear it, if it's valuable, I'll let you go." Chen Tao asked with aroused interest.

He didn't intend to take the lives of Armand's family, but planned to control it, which can be regarded as a cover for his identity, so that he can integrate into this southwestern provincial city more smoothly, but since the other party thinks so, then he also Just keep talking.

Armand was obviously relieved when he heard this, and felt that his life had been saved.

"I'm afraid it's a bit inaccurate to say it. There is a secret letter in the secret box in my bedroom. This is what Baron Tangy left for you, my lord."

As soon as he clapped his hands, a khaki humanoid figure appeared from the ground in front of Chen Tao.

"Go, find the so-called secret box, and bring it here."

The khaki figure nodded slightly, randomly sank into the ground again, and quickly shuttled through the ground.

And Baron Armand's family, who saw this scene, looked at Chen Tao in awe.

Anyone who has the means to travel underground must be a magician. I didn't expect such a noble person to obey the man in front of him.

This guy Tang Ji hid his son Donald so deeply, he didn't expect to have such a powerful influence. ' Baron Armand thought to himself.

Soon, the secret box was found in the search of the underground stalkers, and it was placed in front of Baron Armand. Without hesitation, Armand took out a key from his pocket and opened the secret box.

Inside the metal box were gold bars and precious stones. Armand removed these gold bars and precious stones, revealing a black envelope underneath.

Chen Tao took the envelope that Armand handed over, sensing the magical fluctuations on it, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"It's still a magic envelope, you need magic power to open it." Chen Tao looked up at Armand.

"The little girl is a second-level mage, and she can open it." Armand thought he wanted him to open the envelope, and said hastily.

Chen Tao glanced at Marilyn, whose body was half hidden behind Armand's mother. She was a pure blonde girl. When she saw Chen Tao's gaze, she immediately hid behind her mother like a frightened little rabbit. .

It's a pity that Chen Tao is surrounded by stunning beauties like Fei Yizinan, so he doesn't have much interest in this kind of little girl.

The magic power surged in his hand, and the magic envelope was opened immediately. Besides a letter, there was also a Bauhinia Jade Pendant inside.

Pulling out the letter, Chen Tao read it.

The language inherited by the language magic stone includes fonts, and Chen Tao can naturally recognize these characters.

A few minutes later, Chen Tao put down the envelope thoughtfully.

The content of the envelope is roughly that Tang Ji narrated his experience when he was young. At that time, he was still an outstanding swordsman. When he went to the Sunset Mountains to hunt monsters, he accidentally rescued the seriously injured son of the Duke of Bauhinia at that time. Ji's family rested for a long time. After the other party recovered from his injury, he was grateful to Tang Ji and wanted to repay him by letting him express his request.

At that time, Tang Ji was very excited. In the end, in order to give his family title a chance to be promoted from baron to viscount, his head became hot, and he wanted his son, Donald, who was only a few years old at that time, and the Duke of Bauhinia. The son's daughter makes a marriage contract.

And the son of the Duke of Bauhinia, who was still young at the time, really agreed. After all, Tang Ji was also a nobleman at the time. In addition, Tang Ji was good at that time and had reached the peak of the sixth level. With his talent, he had a great chance to become Seventh-level swordsman master.

This kind of master is not too weak for the Bauhinia family.

In addition, the two sides had such a life-saving friendship, and the son of the Duke of Bauhinia at that time wanted to win over Tang Ji, so as to compete for the position of the head of the Bauhinia family and become the new Duke of Bauhinia, so he readily agreed to Tang Ji's request.

But the content of the envelope is not that Tang Ji wants his son Donald to take the envelope to complete the marriage contract.

Because Tang Ji himself was seriously injured when the two sons of the Duke of Bauhinia were fighting for power. Since then, his potential has been damaged, and he has been unable to break through to the seventh level and become a master swordsman. Tang Ji is also a person who knows the current affairs. If I continue to participate in this kind of power seizure by the power of the duke's family in the future, it is very likely that my family will be ruined, so I choose to withdraw from the battle voluntarily.

In the next few years, the son of Duke Bauhinia supported by Tang Ji succeeded in seizing power and became the new Duke Bauhinia. this matter.

Back to the contents of the envelope.

Tang Ji told his son Donald that he could rely on this Bauhinia Jade Pendant to get help from the Bauhinia family in times of crisis, and remember not to mention the marriage contract unless Donald became a master swordsman!
"This Baron Tang Ji knows the current affairs. He understands that after his death, the family will inevitably fall into disrepair. He didn't want his son to marry the daughter of the Duke of Bauhinia in a whimsical way. Otherwise, the entire family will perish silently."

Chen Tao thought to himself, wondering if he could take advantage of this incident.

"Should I inherit this marriage contract? If I take this opportunity, I might be able to control the Bauhinia family secretly. Then, with my identity as the kingdom's four major families, I might be able to find some abnormal people with world luck faster. "

Chen Tao and the other six lords came to this world of Alcasas in order to destroy the creatures with the luck of this world, and then occupy more than half of the world's creatures, so that they can win the battle and get a huge amount of original rewards .

But because there is a high probability that there are soul-level masters in this world, and he doesn't have the cards to resist this level of powerhouse, he can't unscrupulously find people with luck and start wars.

Otherwise, it is not enough to be an enemy of the entire world, and perhaps the other five lords who are secretly likely to fall into trouble will be added.

And the Skardo Kingdom where Chen Tao lived had a population of more than 2 million, not to mention the empire with a population of more than one billion, and the Holy City Alliance, which was as strong as a cloud.

Chen Tao thought about the news gathered from the spies during this period, and finally realized that it might be the best choice for him to start with the Bauhinia family.

"Well, it's decided, I'm going to be my son-in-law!"

Chen Tao took out the Bauhinia Jade Pendant from the envelope, and played with it in his hands casually, with a playful smile.
