MC's career as foreign lord

"Hurry and make a wish! Human, your wish will be granted everything, and I will be freed because of it!"

The voice became impatient. Zhou Ren's originally intoxicated gaze turned cold. "But, you have to agree first!"

"Of course!" The name of the demon was already signed on the scroll. The name was so eager. "Hand over your soul, human!"

"Strange... the charm didn't work!" Mossa was originally very nervous watching Zhou Ren, but after careful observation, he discovered that the charm magic cast on the scroll actually had no effect, which was very interesting.

He stopped his hand that wanted to shake Zhou Ren awake, and just stood behind Zhou Ren watching, wanting to see what kind of deal his special master wanted to reach with the demon.

A smile appeared on Zhou Ren's face, "I hope your true form appears before me, now, immediately!"

He signed the name, but it wasn't his own name, but HIM!

In some settings, HIM is considered another incarnation of Steve, that is, a fake Steve or an anti-Steve, but no matter what, you have to admit that he is a Steve.

As Steve, Zhou Ren certainly had the right to sign his name. He was also very curious whether this could attract the attention of the demon and the special reaction of the MC system.

"Hahahaha! Even if you sign a name that doesn't belong to you, I can still catch you. My projection will cross the barriers of this world to catch your soul..." The voice began to gradually become clear, and the scroll finally slowly dissipated, and then...

"The contract is established!" Zhou Ren suddenly learned this information, but he did not feel the effect of the contract binding. It seemed that he guessed correctly!

"This is... impossible, the contract cannot be established!" The voice suddenly became very frightened, "I don't want my true form to go to the Prime Material World!"

"Although the demon's contract is very rough, once it is established, it is much more sincere!" Mossa said, "With the existence of the teleportation gate, you can indeed summon him, but master, the price is your soul after death!"

Zhou Ren shook his head, "He can't take my soul, because the name I signed is not mine!"

He looked at the scroll curiously. With the help of the space gate, the contract that had already been established began to change, and then a deep red palm stretched out from the chaotic space gate, and at the same time, there was a surprising voice.

"Huh? Real space gate? It's Baro's aura. No wonder this guy recently came to me to buy scrolls. Is it because his name was signed?"

The voice became rough and unrestrained, "Hahahaha! Baro, your door is mine, and your things are mine too!"

Zhou Ren finally understood why this scroll was passed to another demon's hand. Is this the legendary developer backdoor? After the main user was caught, the aura returning to the abyss was intercepted!

He finally crawled out of the space gate, and a wild, unbridled, and terrifying aura came. This was a Great Demon! A terrifying Great Demon!

"Where is my contractor? I'm here to take your soul! Hahahaha!" He laughed wildly, and after discovering that he could go back, the laughter became even more arrogant.

"Contractor?" Suddenly, his voice stopped.

A strange silence came in the somewhat light air, and then a strange square arm stretched out from the air behind Zhou Ren, catching the contract that was placed in the air.

The three creatures present (I really can't call them people) didn't speak, and the air seemed to freeze. Then the arm grabbed the demon and tore it gently!

The power from an unknown realm made the demon not even have time to resist. He didn't even show his true identity, but just screamed and disappeared.

Zhou Ren vaguely saw that in the unknown world, two identical Steves were grabbing the demon and trying to stuff him into a huge black structure.

This structure was very familiar, it seemed to be... a Tinker's Construct Smeltery?

"I can only say, as expected of me?" Zhou Ren complained. These two Steves must be Steve and HIM. They were more radical than Zhou Ren, and wanted to turn this demon into magma material.

The stagnant air then returned to normal, and so did Mossa's somewhat confused eyes, "Master, why did that demon suddenly disappear just now?"

Zhou Ren suddenly understood that Mossa probably didn't see this scene, but his memory was erased. Although this scene was exaggerated, it seemed very normal for two creator gods.

He smiled mysteriously, "Disappeared? Then let's just say he disappeared!" He picked up the remaining scrolls. After the two masters disappeared one after another, these scrolls remained unchanged even after losing the power of protection.

Mossa explained, "These are scrolls made of demon skin, which naturally have fire resistance, but now that both masters have encountered misfortune, I am afraid it will be difficult to summon new demons!"

Zhou Ren sighed regretfully, "That's really a bit of an accident!"

He waved his hand and put away all the scrolls, "Huh? This space gate, why has it become like this?"

This surprise wasn't faked. Mossa had just explained that naturally generated space gates are extremely rare because traversing through them doesn't require any price!

But now the color of this space gate has undergone the most fundamental change. It is no longer the uncertain chaotic color, but has begun to transform towards deep purple.

"This... what kind of space gate is this?" Mossa was also a little curious, "I have never seen this style of space gate. The power is far beyond the previous one!"

"Hiss! Nether Portal Block!" Zhou Ren blurted out. It seemed that because the hand brushed over the space, this space gate, which was unrelated to the block, gradually changed into other shapes.

Now it is a purple otherworld portal, and of course we can also call it - Nether Portal Block!

Zhou Ren didn't want to leave through the portal block. He found the control of the portal block in the territory permissions and then directly closed it.

Now is not a good time to go to the abyss!

"It seems that our guest has sent us something incredible!" Zhou Ren said, but this thing is not suitable to be opened now.

"Let's go, let's go back to the courtyard," he said, taking the lead to leave.

Before leaving, he took another look at the small courtyard and the small house. Even if it was a "small" courtyard, it was actually no worse than some big houses, but after being ruined by the demons, he always felt a little uncomfortable.

"Go find some cleaning staff to clean this place up! It's also a good place to stay," Zhou Ren said.

Mossa nodded in agreement and followed Zhou Ren out of here.

Returning to the large house, Zhou Ren felt a sense of detachment, as if the recent experiences were all a dream. At the same time, it confirmed the source of his abilities. That block world truly possessed unimaginable terrifying power!

This house was finally bought. Zhou Ren still remembered his initial intention, which was merely to have a foothold and transfer station in the town, as it was somewhat inconvenient to cross a town between the two territories.

Now that the tunnels were dug, all that was needed was a little connection.

"Mossa, where is the connection between this house and the underground passage?" Zhou Ren asked.

"That's for you to decide, Master!" Mossa bowed, displaying his high EQ.

Zhou Ren nodded, "So, the passage is already underground, but the specific exit hasn't been decided yet?"

Mossa didn't speak, but his eyes shone, unfolding a picture!

Lei Qiu, on top of Zhou Ren's head, jumped down and found the location of the three people in this void picture, cheering happily!

"Then let's do it here!" Zhou Ren picked up Lei Qiu, stroked the little guy's head, causing it to make a "humming" sound like a cat, and then said, "Let's do it here, open a road behind the fireplace in this house, and use a trapdoor as decoration."

As he spoke, he took a pickaxe and chiseled open the wall behind the fireplace, and with Mossa's help, quickly connected to a large space below.

This was the large space created by Mossa, just enough to cover the periphery of the entire villa. In one corner of this large space, they could also see torches and a stone staircase, which should lead down to the tunnel dug by Jim.

"Let's go back!" There was nothing to say about this underground passage. Knowing that it could connect to the territory was enough. Zhou Ren's energy couldn't be entirely focused here now.

He returned to the house, the somewhat Western-style high-ceilinged living room with huge chandelier magic lamps made him feel a little novel, but the furniture was intact and spotless, truly a good place to live.

Zhou Ren took out the tea set. Life needed a sense of ritual. Now that he had finally cleared out the unexpected guests, he would celebrate the housewarming with tea!

As he set up the tea set, put on the boiling water, and took out the tea bag, the kettle had just started to boil when he heard the noisy sounds outside.

The only downside to houses in this town was that the streets were too close, making it completely lack privacy. You could hear everything that was being said outside.

"Hiss, that's not right! I don't have many people here!" Zhou Ren reacted. It would be fine if there were people, after all, he wasn't an unreasonable person, but there was clearly no one here, most of the rich people had left.

At this moment, his Elf Handbook began to vibrate again. Zhou Ren opened the book and saw messages from Anna and the town chief.

"Congratulations to Lord Zhou Ren on moving to the town, especially to congratulate you!"

"Do you have this custom of housewarming here?" Zhou Ren curiously asked Mossa.

Mossa nodded, "For nobles, there are countless ways to give gifts, this certainly counts!"

Zhou Ren said helplessly, "Alright! Let's go and welcome them in!"

Before he even reached the door, the huge sound and crowd had already conveyed the terrifying momentum. Mossa opened the courtyard door and saw a group of acquaintances.

Anna and Shia didn't need to be said. Even among the generally beautiful and handsome elves, the appearance of the two was outstanding enough.

"Lord Zhou Ren, excuse me for coming!" Shia said, a group of mercenaries behind her brought a huge crystal base and a huge elf sculpture, "This is a gift from Anna and me!"

"A gift from our Lord Corellon, this place will be the sacred domain of the elves, placing it in the yard can ward off evil demons!"

"Then thank you, Princess!" Zhou Ren nodded very satisfied, this great elf really had a sacred aura in it.

The other few people, namely the town chief, the old priest, and the chairman Brown, also sent some things to decorate Zhou Ren's somewhat barren yard.

Somewhat special were the three people he had never seen before. They also sent congratulatory gifts, mostly furniture and decorations, which was also a token of appreciation, but the specifications did not exceed Shia's.

Huh? So, the elves also have unspoken rules for giving gifts?

Then the few people dispersed the guards, servants, and mercenaries behind them. Locke said, "Lord Zhou Ren, won't you invite us in?"

Zhou Ren shook his head with a smile, "If you're here to see the good things here, I'm afraid you'll be disappointed! Please come in!"

He took out a set of tables and chairs and built a rest platform for them in the courtyard, then put away all the things that everyone had just sent, and then faced Locke and the others, and said with a smile.

"You guys can settle down here first. When we return to the territory, I will give you a special treat, how about that?"

"No need to do that!" Locke shook his head, "This environment is already enough to satisfy us, this rich magical element, you still say you're not a great alchemist?"

Anna nodded, "Zhou Ren has extraordinary alchemy skills. That special alchemy material caused a sensation in the Arcane Republic!"

"These are all exaggerations, nothing of the sort!" Zhou Ren shook his head, looked at the three strangers who came in, and asked curiously, "Who are these three?"

Locke introduced them one by one, "Your Excellency, these three are reinforcements from Val City, Bloodline Sorcerer: Auster Nero!"

Nero gave him a polite smile. Zhou Ren knew some elven knowledge. The surname Nero, if nothing else, was an elven noble.

He also remembered this mage. If he remembered correctly, when he was looking for a secretary in the city hall before, this elven mage was standing next to him.

As a rare elven male, his appearance was not very outstanding, but he could be considered good-looking.

"Grand Knight Commander: Quirion Quaint!"

The strong half-elf male wore plate armor and nodded lightly to Zhou Ren with a cold expression.

It was still a very common elven surname, but the name was obviously more inclined to humans.

"High Priest: Drusilia Amagil!"

This was another noble, a young girl from the Gem Flower family, who looked about the same age as Shia. She gently tugged at her skirt and saluted Zhou Ren.

Zhou Ren also smiled, "Just eight people, it would be a little difficult for me if there was one more!"

"Mossa, bring out the tea!"
