Lord Saren: I have a proficiency panel

Chapter 83 Asking for help

There were still five days left before the exam, and Luo Di thought that no one would come to visit him, so he began to practice behind closed doors in Shante Tavern.

However, within two days of being clean, a distinguished guest came to visit again.

This time, it was the Oliva family of Saint Lun Xiong Pass.

Dromuk, a retainer of the Oliva family, came to visit in person.

Seeing this Zhuomu Ke, Lodi immediately thought of the young master he represented, Portcas Oliva, who was handsome in appearance but extremely arrogant in attitude.

Unlike the previous Portkas, Dromuk was very formal in terms of etiquette. He obviously thinks highly of Lodi.

In the eyes of these powerful families, Lodi is not a competitor. After all, his strength is still too weak.

They regard Lodi as an emerging talent, and of course they have to put on a wooing gesture to appear polite and virtuous.

Therefore, even if Portkas had a bad attitude toward him, Dromuk still had to show enough etiquette on the surface.

After some polite remarks, Dromuk quickly stated his intention: "Our Oliva family and the Swift family are related by marriage. The sister of Baron Swift is the wife of our Earl Oliva. And Sa Mr. Lun, you have a close relationship with the Swift family. After all, we are all one family. We, Master Portcas, have a small request, please ask Mr. Saren for a favor."

When Luo Di heard this 'little request', he suddenly had a premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, Zhuomu Ke smiled slightly and continued: "We want Mr. Saren to kill those strong men in the competition, and then lose to my young master in the finals, and help Mr. Portkas win the first place. name."

Hearing this request, Luo Di felt depressed.

These families are really shameless. Every family is thinking about using secret operations to let their family's heirs get a good ranking.

And this Oliva family is so shameless that they actually want this arrogant young master to get first place.

To be honest, Lodi never expected to encounter this situation.

He underestimated the desire of these families for fame and did not foresee such a situation in advance. As a result, he did not foresee this problem at all. Once they are asked to speak, they appear very passive in a hurry.

He misses old Barron so much now. This old knight has a very deep understanding of the military nobles of the Lost Kingdom. With old Barron here, he will definitely be able to remind himself in time.

Since everyone has come up with their own ideas, for the current plan, Lodi can only retreat in order to advance, leaving the problem to both parties.

So he frowned and said with a troubled look: "Mr. Zhuomu Ke, as you said, we are all a family. Originally I was happy to help you, but there are some difficulties here."

"What kind of embarrassment?" Zhuo Muke asked immediately.

"Two days ago, Viscount Gitte also sent someone here and wanted me to take care of their Master Rapp - he is also on the list of candidates this time."

Zhuo Muk immediately asked Luo Di: "Did you agree?"

Lodi shook his head and said: "I haven't agreed yet. But, Mr. Zhuomu Ke, you know, Viscount Gitte is the senior leader of the Seventh Army and my boss. If he wants me to help, it is really difficult for me to refuse. .”

As he spoke, he touched his forehead and sighed helplessly: "I have friends and relatives on one side and my boss on the other. This really makes me embarrassed."

"Mr. Saren, I understand your difficulty." Zhuo Muke nodded, his brows slightly stretched, and he smiled: "Although Three Rivers City is the territory of the Seventh Army, in the end, we still have to rely on the Shenglun Pass. Yes. Since Mr. Salen is in trouble, it’s up to us to take care of Viscount Git’s place.”

As he spoke, he ordered his servants to place a box on the ground and said with a smile: "This is a little bit of consideration for our young master. It's not respectful."

Lodi saw that the box looked very heavy when it was put down. It was obviously a box of gold coins.

He immediately waved his hand and said in an exaggerated tone: "Mr. Zhuo Muke, I have no merit and no reward. I will never accept your gift."

"Don't worry, Mr. Saren. Regardless of success or failure, our Oliva family just wants to make you a friend." Zhuomu Ke laughed and said: "Speaking of which, Master Potkas and you are both young people, so it's just right Taking advantage of this assessment, you should find an opportunity to get close to each other." "Of course, we will definitely get to know each other someday." Luo Di nodded and smiled.

However, he knew that this was Zhuomu Ke's polite words, and the Oliva family might not actually think highly of him.

Even if the Olika family thinks highly of themselves, the second generation ancestor of Potkas will definitely look down on themselves.

If he thought highly of himself, Portcas Oliva should come with him today.

The two exchanged pleasantries again, and Zhuo Muke said goodbye and left.

Watching Zhuomu Ke leave, Luo Di slowly opened the wooden box. There were almost thirty gold coins in it, which was much less than the 200 gold coins in Viscount Gitte's.

He closed the wooden box and thought to himself.

When Zhuo Muk left this time, he must be going to negotiate with Viscount Gitte. In order to win the honor of the championship of the competition, both sides must have a battle.

The two families can fight as much as they want, but they must not affect themselves.

Their current power is not something they can contend with. However, it would not be good if the failed family took out their grievances on themselves.

What should you do next to stay on your own? Luo Di really couldn't think of any safe way.

The key reason is that I know too little about these families and Hadley Knight Academy.

In this situation, even if Barron is here, he may not be able to give good advice.

The only best solution at present is to ask Riley Swift for help to see if he can help.

Lodi has already seen that neither the Gitte family nor the Oliva family are reliable. If you really want to choose a family to join, the Swift family is undoubtedly the best choice.

Thinking of this, Lodi wrote a letter of visit, then summoned his servants and ordered: "Take my letter, go to Riley Swift's residence, ask him when he is free, and make an appointment with him A visiting hour.”

The servant nodded and immediately left with the letter. Two hours later, he returned breathlessly and said to Lodi: "Sir, Master Riley replied that he was going to attend a party at the house of an elf businessman named Narcissus Mandala. Next to the market. I want to ask you if you are willing to go together. The time is set at 8 o'clock tonight."

Elf merchant?

Luo Di was stunned for a moment. He had never been in contact with elves before. This time is a good opportunity to learn more.

So he nodded and said: "You go and reply to him, I will go there on time."

To be on the safe side, Lodi enchanted the black iron sword, then mounted his horse and headed to Mandala's home as promised.

Due to its location in the north, night comes early in Trois-Rivières.

When Lodi arrived near Mandala's house, it was completely dark.

Due to the need for tranquility in the Elf-dwelling area, no horses are allowed. Therefore, Luo Di ordered his servants to lead the horse back, and he dismounted and walked.

Just after turning around an alley, Luo Di was about to go forward. Suddenly, in the darkness ahead, he saw a man in black kneeling in front of a door.

Then the light from the nearby mansion made the figure of the man in black look very familiar. Luo Di immediately stopped and took a closer look. It turned out to be his teacher Barron.

Roddy was immediately shocked. Didn't Old Barron say that he went out to seek medicine? Is this his way of seeking medicine?
