I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha.

Chapter 177 The Key to Chaos! The Crossroads of Destiny!
After seeing the projected map on the table, Roland thought to himself, "So I was asked to come here first to choose a territory. So Catherine specially prepared a ceremony for me?"
At this time, Lilith came over with a suspicious look on her face. She asked, "What are you two looking at? Have you made your choice?"

"Forehead"

Roland coughed, glared at Lilith, and said, "Why are you so anxious? I've only been in the room for two minutes. This is about choosing a territory, not picking cabbages. Miss Qila, can you explain it again?"

Roland used the word 'again'.

Miss Qila had no chance to explain anything to him just now, and he just touched it.

Kira cleared her throat unnaturally, and she spoke very softly.

In terms of titles and fiefdoms, wizards are a little different from the secular world.

On the wizard side, unless the family is extremely powerful, even if the lord has many descendants, if the descendants are not ambitious, they will not be eligible to inherit the territory.

In addition, all titles and fiefs nominally belong to the White Queen. Parliament manages these titles and fiefs on behalf of the White Queen, so the inheritance of titles and fiefs needs to go through Parliament.

The most important symbol of a title is land and property. For example, the word baron literally means "noble with a castle."

After listening to this, Roland thought to himself, "Haha, I get it! The White Queen is the strongest old monster in our sect. The Council is the head of the sect and can manage all the caves. The fiefdom and title are the caves! The Baron refers to the wizard who has a cave!"
To facilitate the transfer of territory to Wizard Roland, Catherine this time carried out a division operation. She brought back three baron titles from various places, representing three territories.

These three baron titles now belong to Catherine.

In the East, the division of territory by wizards required approval from the parliament. Now that the parliament had agreed to allow Catherine to grant a title, Roland had a choice between three options.

Kira also mentioned to Roland that Catherine now had a lot of titles, the most noble of which was the Royal Earl, a title given to Catherine by the White Queen.

The Royal Earl can manage all matters big and small within the palace, and can make decisions on behalf of the emperor when the emperor is away.

Hearing this, Roland thought to himself: "Ha! I understand now, so Catherine is now equivalent to a small leader! And the ancestor of our big sect is my mother-in-law! Haha, I am eating a good gigolo!"

After listening to Kira for a while, Roland felt a little angry.

His mother-in-law really disliked him.

First of all, this enfeoffment was granted because Roland had made three contributions in Human Skin Town, the Forbidden Land, and the Crystal Princess's illness. The White Queen finally relented. What a hateful mother-in-law. If it had been Prince Charles who had made the contribution in Human Skin Town, he would have been rewarded immediately.

When Roland came to him, he made three contributions before his mother-in-law relented.

Roland now actually has four options to choose from, because there's another option given by Kayla, and Kayla's choice corresponds to the matter of Human Skin Town.

Among the remaining three fiefdoms, one was obtained by Catherine from the White Chess School, corresponding to the forbidden area.

One is Catherine's original barony territory - this also corresponds to the "shield" issue.

When Roland had been acting as a shield for Catherine, she had made a promise. Originally, Catherine had intended to use this fief to get rid of Roland.

But now, Roland had done so much for Senior Sister. If he said he would just take the territory and leave, Senior Sister would chop him alive.

The last territory is a bit special, it is related to the Crystal Princess's disease.

That territory, called 'Straw Town', was the smallest and least valuable of the four territories. It was even the kind of place no one else wanted.

Because it is a sealed place. It was sealed by the combined efforts of Instructor Usak and the Crab Eye Elephant Tower Master.

Originally, this place had been taken a fancy to by the owner of the Crab Eye Elephant Tower, who planned to give it to one of his sons.

His son was Barnett, who had been killed by Roland.

The Crab Eye Elephant Tower was no longer interested in this place, so it ended up on Roland's side by accident.

At this moment, the Book of Alayeh on Roland's waist began to shake.

Roland took it out and took a look.

[You've come across four 'cave dwellings' to choose from along the way. Now, these four cave dwellings are intertwined with your destiny.]

At this crossroads of fate, you decide

A. "Oh, this fief was acquired by Lady Catherine through Sir Joan's channels from the White Chess School."

【完成奖励：情毒男爵+1、俊俏邻居+1、好兄弟一被子+1、醉心魔药炼金学+1、魔药炼金学等级+1、大魔药炼金师的未来+1、东境首富+1、凯瑟琳的失望+1、凯瑟琳的好感度永久-50】

[B. "Ah, this fiefdom is very special. It holds special significance for the Alexandra family. The first dean of Black Abyss was once the first lord here. Next to this fiefdom is the earldom of Lady Catherine."]

【完成奖励：黑渊男爵+1、冷若冰山的邻居+1、如充满激情的炽热的被窝+1、凯瑟琳的兴奋+N、“要不要再给你找一个侍寝丫鬟啊?”+1、火焰纹章全属性+1】

[C. "Roland, none of them look that good. Why don't you just not choose? Let's go to Kayla's place and have fun together."]

【完成奖励：妖灵男爵+1、贸易集市+1、烧烧的邻居+1、魅魔邻居+2、激战的被窝+1、罗兰干瘪的尸体+1、凯瑟琳的失望+1、赫拉卡娘娘的失望+1、暗影纹章全属性+1】

D. "Sister, please shut up and stop trying to trick me!"

【完成奖励：恐怖男爵+1；这都是什么诡邻居啊+？；封印可千万不能动啊+1；神操作+1；赫拉卡娘娘的关注+1、死罗兰+1、阎王头衔+1；某禁断魔法等级+1】

After seeing the fourth option, Roland was completely dumbfounded.

This D seems to be Straw Town, it's a dead end!
Even if I go there and perform some magical operations, I will definitely die.

If I don't do my job well, I'll definitely die. But if I do it well, Helaka will take me away and send me to work in the Styx!
That C is also a bummer! This option is to go the 'Kayla route', and then get ganged up on by Lilith, Kayla, and another succubus. You die once, then live again. Besides the little head being happy, you get nothing.

Roland made up his mind that C and D were absolutely not options.

Roland's expression was a bit odd when he heard A. A seemed to be the "Qiong Line." If he took this line, he would become obsessed with potion alchemy and neglect his cultivation. He might become a super-rich potion alchemist in the future, but it seemed he had no future on the road.

Catherine would be disappointed because Roland stopped on the road, and the fate of the two would cross.

Option B is the senior sister line. It seems that the senior sister line is the training line.

Roland's eyes suddenly lit up. What did that mean? If he were to hang out with the senior, would she find him a maid?

At this moment, Roland suddenly saw that options A and B in the book inexplicably lit up.

Roland rubbed his eyes, very surprised, because he had not done anything just now.

Suddenly he realized something, looked up abruptly, and saw Lilith had been chatting with Qila Cricket for a long time!
Lilith: "Hey, which territory is this?"

Qila: "Oh, this fief was obtained by Lady Catherine from the White Chess School through Sir Joan's channels."

Lilith: "Ahh, what about this?"

Kira: "Ah, this fiefdom is very special. It has special significance to the Alexandra family. The first dean of the Black Abyss was once the first lord here. Next to this territory is the earldom of Lady Catherine." Lilith looked up at Roland: "Roland, neither of them looks very good. Why don't you choose? Let's go to Kira's place together."

Roland couldn't hold it in any longer and collapsed, yelling, "Big Sister! Please shut up and stop trying to trick me!"

Suddenly, Roland was stunned for a long time. He looked at the Book of Alayeh blankly and found that he had chosen all four options ABCD!

Roland felt very unwell.

He grabbed Lilith's shoulders and shook her violently: "What have you done? How could a few words from you disrupt my destiny? I'm going to kill you!"

Lilith was a little panicked. She said, "I, I don't know what you are talking about."

Kira, who was standing by, suddenly had a strange look on his face.

Sometimes, wizards can sense their future destiny, so after hearing Roland's words, she didn't think he was suddenly going crazy. Instead, she believed that he might have a premonition of something.

She grabbed Lilith's shoulders and said with shining eyes, "Angel, have you been to any strange places recently? For example, a very strange place that looks like the Black Abyss, but everything is upside down."

Kira didn't know that Angel was Lilith, but she suspected that 'Angel' had met someone extraordinary recently.

That thing is very strange. It is very good at making puzzles and solving puzzles. Once someone answers the question it asks correctly, the answer will come true!

In the past, the old Black Abyss relied on it to solve mysteries and house mysterious objects.

During the forbidden area incident, the young lady had managed to lure it out once, helping the parliament's rescue team enter the forbidden area and explore the desert.

Lilith's face grew increasingly flustered after hearing Kira's question. She said, "No, no, I haven't entered the 'Inverted Darkness'."

Qila's eyes moved suddenly: "How do you know that place? Did you encounter a beauty snake there?"

Lilith waved her hands hurriedly: "No, no, no! I haven't touched it!"

As soon as Roland heard it, he knew what was going on.

Lilith recently went to play with the serpentine and got a lot of buffs on herself. This is why Lilith disrupted her destiny.

Roland immediately revealed Lilith's identity, and then he and Kira interrogated this guy.

"Well, it's all Usak's fault. He gave me a bunch of homework exercises, and I wasn't very good at them, so I asked the snake mermaid to do some of them for me."

Lilith picked at her fingers and said to Roland timidly, "I thought I'd have to go back to the prison to punch in in a few days, and the wizards of Arakkar recently created a 'Fate Shackle' and planned to use it to imprison me. So I asked the serpent beauty for a 'Key of Chaos'. Maybe this item affected your fate."

Roland was almost furious when he heard this. He grabbed Lilith by the collar and said, "Where's the Key of Chaos?!"

Lilith took out an ordinary key: "Here."

Roland took it and studied it with Qila for a long time, but couldn't figure it out. "How do I use this thing? I mean, you just messed up the fate of the fiefdom. How can you help me get it back?"

Lilith rolled her eyes. She took the key and said, "This is the Key of Chaos. It can disrupt the order of fate, but it can't restore it. However, I can help you choose a new territory."

Lilith inserted the key into the map and said, "This is it. It's right next to Keira's territory. We'll be neighbors from now on."

Roland looked at the map blankly and found that it was 'Straw Town'.

This is option D! It's the option of going to Straw Town to serve as a servant to Lady Helaka!

Roland felt very unwell.

The Book of Alayeh suddenly shook twice, and Roland was stunned to find that the four options had all been shuffled into one.

The content is like this:

What did you choose?

Completion Rewards:
1. Various neighbors and various weird neighbors +???

2. "Do you want me to find you another maid?", Strange Quilt +1
3. Potion Alchemy Level +1, Fire Emblem All Attributes +1, Shadow Emblem All Attributes +1;

4. Mysterious operation +1;

5. Roland the Shriveled +1;

6. Living King of Hell title +1;]

7.凯瑟琳的对你说的666+1、赫拉卡娘娘对你说的666+1；】

Roland sat down on the chair, covering his face and sitting there for a long time.

Lilith and Kira looked at each other, not knowing what Roland had predicted with his magic book.

After a moment, Roland stood up and said, "Let's go and confer the title."

That 'shriveled Roland' could refer to Roland himself - after he died, wouldn't he have become a shriveled Roland?
However, it could also be the 'clone' that he created after becoming a formal wizard - one more clone, wouldn't that just mean one more shriveled Roland?
This matter depends on how you operate it.

If it is done well, even Queen Heraka will shout 666.

After the three of them left, Lilith came over again and said, "I'm working for your fiancée. Why don't you tell her to arrange for me to stay with Qila? We can be neighbors from now on."

Roland simply told her to stay away.

Damn! It was a simple matter, but you had to force it. It's lucky I didn't kill you, and you still want me to help you?

Roland was almost pissed off now. He had originally wanted to be neighbors with his senior and live a shameless life.

Without a doubt, option B is the easiest and simplest route among all the options.

As a result, it has become like this.

But now that all four options have been merged, what kind of neighbors will I have in the future?
According to the prophecy, there will be many normal neighbors and many strange neighbors.

Lilith was very shameless and insisted that Roland help her to mediate with the boss Catherine.

Roland glanced at Kira, who was watching his nose intently, and said to Lilith, "Catherine and I are not familiar with each other. We have only met three times in total, so we can't talk."

Kira had a very strange look on his face, and Lilith was full of disappointment.

As a result, he had just said that he was not familiar with the female boss, but then he accidentally teased the female boss during the enfeoffment ceremony.
