I really just want to be a big lord

Chapter 108 Chapter [-]

"Cat family? Do you mean like a cat? Oh, you thought I meant a leopard? No, it's a kind of roe deer, similar to the most common forest-piercing deer, but a little smaller. It's a low-magic monster."

"Oh, that's right, I'll try it... well, it tastes really good." Kaios nodded in praise after taking a sip.

He was actually a little strange, because he noticed that when Qian Cang Lixiao suggested that he eat that looting roe deer, he was very nervous and apprehensive, and looked a little expectant.

If it weren't for the half-yellow halo at the back of Qian Cang Dawn's head, Kaios would have wondered if this thing was poisonous or would make a fool of himself if he ate it.

Kaios took another bite of the roe deer meat, squinting his eyes as he chewed it as if he was savoring the taste, but in fact he was recalling the emotional changes that had just dawned.

Asking him to eat meat was a matter of nervousness and anticipation. After he expressed doubts about the taste of leopard meat, he was immediately disappointed, and felt a little relaxed and relieved. After he actually ate roe deer meat, there was nothing obvious. fluctuation.

The curve of Qiang Dawn's emotional changes made him realize that what she really cared about was not letting him eat meat or how the meat tasted, but his reaction to that sentence.

Keos secretly memorized the name of this so-called "sweeping roe", and was going to go back and look up relevant information.

After the dinner was over, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening, but for those guests who didn't plan to go back, the show had just begun.

Count Christina has arranged receptions, dance parties, and even a private movie theater where you can watch the few long-form movies that exceed 20 minutes, watch professional dance troupes and theater performances, and have professional The masseuse massaged, this splendid manor is not only big, not only luxurious, but also has many buildings and functions. If it was in the world where Keos came, it would probably be called a six-star hotel.

Kaios didn't go back either, he chose to stay in Brilliant Manor for one night.

If this kind of dinner ends relatively late and is held in the inner city of Yulang City, everyone will find their own place to live. There are many high-end places in the inner city for the nobles who encounter this kind of situation. Like the first time they attended After the auction, Keos went out of the city overnight and returned to Beishan Manor. Xiao Zhuo'an chose to live in the inner city in order to participate in the subsequent dance.

Of course, there are also many lords who have purchased houses in the inner city, which is more convenient.

And if the banquet or dance held in the manor of the lords outside the city ends relatively late, many lords may arrive at the place where they live until dawn, and they will choose to simply stay for one night and leave early the next morning , the owner will inevitably provide guest rooms.

Of course, in addition to providing guest rooms, there are still very few places like Christina who also provide various entertainment facilities and activities. After all, not all great lords have so many configurations of luxury burning coupons.

Brilliant Manor is much farther away from Kaios’ Beishan Manor than it is to Yulang City. Unless he just came here for a while and had a bite to eat, he immediately set off and rushed back. It was dawn, so I was thinking about whether to stay at the Brilliant Villa for one night.

After having a contracted servant duel with the Marquis of Steel Heart and winning several pieces of equipment, Keos made a decision to spend the night at Brilliant Manor.

It's not that I'm really afraid that, as Earl Christina said, the Marquis of Steelheart, regardless of everything and his title, will lead an army to intercept it openly, which should not be possible.

But with Marquis Steel Heart's narrow-minded and unscrupulous style of action, it is really possible to send one or two strong men to ambush and attack.

Only grab things, or only kill the contracted servants after the attack, do not move the lord, make quick moves, and quickly evacuate, as long as they are not caught by the disciplinary knights at the moment, or leave iron evidence, and no nobles are killed or injured, there is a high probability that Shengyou Palace will not Put a lot of effort into tracing.

Of course, if he really needs to rush back overnight, he can also ask Christina to contact the nearby Disciplinary Knights patrol team first, and let them send someone to escort him, which will be much more stable.

The strength of a team of disciplinary knights is not enough to ensure that they can block the ambush attack of the Marquis of Steel Heart, but with the disciplinary knights accompanying the team, the probability of the Marquis of Steel Heart's attack is very small.

Although Kaios has a good relationship with the Holy Blessing Palace and the Knights of Retribution, this kind of all-night escort and labor-intensive work should not take the initiative to use the relationship of the Knights of Retribution unless there is no other better choice.

……

Kaios originally wanted to go to Christina's private Phantom Hall to see what phantom works she had here, but Qian Cangming asked him what arrangements he had, and he immediately understood that the noble girl had something else to say to him , so there is no arrangement.

Qing Cang Dawn proposed to go to the top floor to drink tea, but Kaios naturally had no objection, and followed her to the top floor rooftop.

The roof of the main building here is an aerial viewing platform. As for what scenery to enjoy, you will know it as soon as you come up.

Looking in front of the building, you can see the extravagant magic lighting square with fountains in the Brilliant Manor. You can also clearly see the buildings with different design styles and different functions in the manor in the distance. How can I see clearly.

On the other side, looking at the back of the building, there is a large garden with all kinds of rare ornamental magic plants, and in order to be able to see clearly at night, Christina also placed a lot of magic lights and magic lights under the garden. Supporting control array.

At night, at a glance, the degree of magnificence is even higher and more gorgeous than during the day.

However, for Kaios, who has been crazy about calculating various costs recently, as soon as he arrived on the rooftop and saw this scene, he immediately smelled the horrible smell of magic coupons, and he immediately began to calculate the cost of this night in his mind. How many magic sticks are consumed...

Although the scenery here is so beautiful, the guests who stayed here basically chose other entertainment items. Apart from Kaios and Qing Cang Dawn, there was only one person on this rooftop that surprised both of them.

The owner of Brilliant Manor and the protagonist tonight, Count Christina Fording, is silently drinking soup alone on the rooftop.

Seeing the two of them coming up, Christina first raised her head and looked at them in surprise, then smiled, nodded to them, and beckoned them to come and sit here.

At the first glance, Kaios almost didn't recognize her. It wasn't that the countess had changed in appearance. I haven't seen her for a few minutes. She still looks like the noble and beautiful countess, and she still has the same golden suit on her body. But just at that moment, her eyes were extraordinarily pure, which created a great sense of conflict with her identity, as well as her original personality and impression.

On the way Kaios and Qian Cangxiao walked towards the seat where the countess was sitting, they inexplicably remembered the words Baron Lev said:

"...Christina is a very good woman, the best woman in the world, but you have to be careful not to let her steal your heart..."

In his mind, there was still the appearance of Christina winking at him with a pretty face and drunkenness at the previous dinner. He didn't think much of it at that time, but now that the two faces overlapped in front of him, there was something inexplicable. An alternative temptation and impact.

Kaios suddenly understood why Baron Lev said those words...

"Tina, are you not full from the dinner again?" Qing Cang Lixiao stretched her head to look at the soup Christina was drinking, moved her nose, frowned and said, "You drink this concocted potion soup again... ...This is not good for your health, you should eat more meat, real meat!"

"It's nutritious enough. It's formulated by several pharmacists at the magister level. It's much healthier than the things you eat!" Christina argued with Qing Cangxiao like a little girl. road.

"This kind of food is not a serious food, it's just an emergency food, and you can't eat too much." Qian Cangxiao said, turning to look at Kaios: "Baron Kaios, am I right?"

Christina also said: "That's right, Baron Keos, the 'Magic Refining System' you sell is a product based on the principle of magic. You must be able to understand the things made by magic. It's not some messy junk food, right?"

"Ah? Oh, well, this issue has to be looked at dialectically. Dialectics refers to a thing or a thing. We can't just look at it from one side, but from the whole..."

After listening to Keos rambling for a while, Christina couldn't help laughing and said, "Okay, okay, I think I'd better finish my soup and leave quickly, so as not to disturb the two of you, your love life Say love."

Qian Cang Lixiao hurriedly said: "Tina, don't talk nonsense, I'm just a little interested in the 'Magic Refining System' made by Baron Keos, and I want to know how he came up with this thing, so I invite him to join us. Let's drink tea and chat."

Christina, who was about to stand up, sat back down again, and said with a smile: "Since it's not about love, then I want to hear it too. As a major client of the 'creator', I also have a crush on Baron Keos. I am very interested in how you came up with the idea of ​​making the 'Magic Refining System' and how it was made."

Kaios smiled: "It's actually quite simple, that is, I went to various industries of my family last year, and when I came back, I happened to meet Shengyou Palace who was pre-preparing the new magic planting territory, and asked The magician in charge, knowing that the new planting territory will have a very high yield increase, I moved the idea of ​​​​purchasing the 'raw territory' in advance.

"My housekeeper reminded me at the time that assets like farms are more difficult to build and expand than factories. It takes time to cultivate full-time farmers. When many lords sell farms, they will not sell the original farmers together. , so I am stationed in the new magic plant territory, it may not be easy to make a move.

"So I was thinking, is there any way to break through the limitation of the cultivation speed of farmers, so that the new magic plant territory can be put into production as quickly as possible, so I went to find a lot of teams that researched magic squeezing and filling devices, and With the support of sufficient magic coupons from noble people, such a system has been accumulated.

"Actually, most of the crafting and demon refining techniques in it have already existed, and I just led people to integrate them together.

"If there is no new magic plant, if the new magic plant does not have such a high production increase, even if my system is made, it is impossible to have such a high sales volume.

"To put it bluntly, I just happened to stand on the air vent, and then I adjusted my posture and flew up."

What Keos said sounded reasonable. Christina nodded again and again, but dawn suddenly asked: "Baron Keos, what kind of opportunity made you decide to go on a tour of your own property?"

"Well... I just inherited the title not long ago, so I want to see all the properties I own for myself. The opportunity, I just thought of it suddenly, and there is no specific reason."

"Then on the way back, why did you ask you to visit the pre-preparation territory of Shengyou Palace?"

"It was dark at that time, I was looking for a place to spend the night, and there was only that campsite suitable for camping..."

"Then what is the reason that made you decide to replace the acquired land with new magic planting land and develop it yourself instead of selling it? According to what you said before, you should have greatly increased the price of the land after the Marquis of Steel Heart. Before, you have already decided to keep the territory in your own hands for development, right? But this obviously involves a very large risk and high uncertainty. In your situation, is it really necessary to do this?"

Kaios laughed: "Miss Qian Cang's question is really detailed."

The questions in the rounds just now really made him feel like he was facing a tabloid reporter.

Christina also smiled and said: "She doesn't usually do this, let alone other nobles, even in front of me, I say more than her. In the past, no matter what kind of dinner, dinner, dance, or reception, she always It was I who hid alone and buried myself in eating and drinking, like a little hamster, and especially hated socializing with other nobles...Only in front of Baron Keos, did we, Little Dawn, suddenly become talkative."

"I... I'm just curious." Qing Cang Lixiao didn't know how to explain it, she just wanted to know when and at what point did Kaios make such a change that greatly affected the development of history if he was not a reborn She wanted to know if that change had anything to do with her rebirth.

Judging from Kaios's answer, the key point should be before Kaios started the territory parade, and before that, the key event that Kaios did was taken at the auction. Guan Jianshen.

There should be only this explanation.

The three of them were chatting when a human voice came from the stairs. Before the person came up, the servant next to him had already moved a few steps closer and whispered to Christina, "It's Earl Hummels and several other lords. prom."

Sure enough, a few seconds later, Hummels' figure appeared on the stairs.

"Eh? Earl Fortin, Baron Keos, and...this beautiful lady, why didn't you attend the ball?" Hummels obviously drank a lot of wine, and his voice was much higher than during the previous dinner. .

"I'll deal with them, you two can continue the small world." Christina stood up, said something to Kaios and Qian Cangxiao in a low voice, and walked towards Hummels and other nobles with a smile: "Count Hummels, this is your first time on my rooftop, let me introduce you to my side..."

Just as she was speaking, she suddenly felt her waist tighten and someone hugged her from behind.

At the same time, a "Bold!" sounded, apparently from her top-level contracted servant of the Holy Spirit Guard, the chief guard.

The person hugging her is obviously a man... The only man behind her is...

Keos? !

Christina was hugged and rolled twice on the ground. After a burst of dizziness, she found herself lying on her back in the arms of a man. Just as she was about to speak, the man pushed her aside and crawled off the ground. up.

"Don't kill him! Control him!"

Keos yelled.
