MC's career as foreign lord

Amidst the external tension, Zhou Ren leisurely ate his dinner. In reality, the MC's system of eating wasn't just beneficial. For example, his body seemed to be fixed the moment he arrived in this world.

That mysterious power belonging to Steve prevented him from changing himself. His body seemed to possess infinite strength, but it also fixed him in the form and personality he had upon arrival.

In the beginning, he had felt the influence on his various qualities, including all sorts of personality traits.

That blocky power weakened a part of his emotions and tentatively dulled his sensitivity to certain things. This made him somewhat slow to react to certain probes.

However, whether this rational change was good or bad was unknown. At least, he hadn't encountered any crises yet, so he naturally let it be.

Perhaps because his perception had become dull, he was more suited to farming, mining, or planting trees, building farms and structures.

Only the economic plan mentioned yesterday could stimulate his nerves, allowing him to focus on something instead of burying himself in the fields.

This stimulation could bring him certain special effects, and it could also briefly restore his normal emotions, allowing him to think about whether his recent actions had been problematic.

Then he discovered that even in that state, everything he did was basically fine. Even with two beautiful women stimulating his nerves in front of him, he didn't do anything particularly unexpected.

In short, anyone wanting to obtain something from him had to pay a sufficient price, whether it was resources, seeds, or something else. Since Shia brought the elven trade, he could lean towards her a bit more in the future.

As for Anna... he'd wait until her so-called continental auction was held!

Zhou Ren could also use such an auction to sell his theories and the newly minted coins.

If he could really invite some high-level nobles or legendary-level professionals, it would naturally be very beneficial for promoting his currency.

But as the saying goes, this matter had to be assisted by the Church of the Goddess of Wealth. If they didn't acknowledge the exchange rate of these coins, it would actually be difficult to implement.

"That little dragoness has indeed restrained herself a bit recently, but it's not enough!" Zhou Ren's cold treatment was certainly noticed by Anna.

The lord of the territory deliberately reduced contact with her, actually in order to knock her down a peg. This little dragoness's arrogance was even greater than the elves'.

But as a dragon, she seemed to have a reason to be arrogant. He didn't know the situation of dragons in this world, only guessing from certain people's words that this should be a very powerful and terrifying race, right?

Moreover, this girl Anna had ulterior motives, wanting to directly abduct him to Dragon Island to be her son-in-law at every turn. He'd better stay away from her next time.

Zhou Ren smiled and shook his head. He knew these were just jokes. After the elven god descended, the relationship between himself and the elves had actually undergone a subtle change.

At least until Corellon actually spoke, these long-ears wouldn't dare to do anything to him. This concerned their faith in their god.

So he could leisurely sit at the table, eating the freshly made beef stew, which was also something that appeared in the extremely simple mods of MC.

As the item with the highest satiety recovery in the entire mod, it could restore a full 16 hunger points and 16 satiety points.

Adding this naturally filled Zhou Ren's satiety. Moreover, since it was a soup, it wasn't slow to eat. He finished it in a few gulps, then strolled to the tea pavilion, took out a wooden teacup, and poured himself a cup of green tea.

He dried all the remaining tea leaves into green tea leaves. This was the most cost-effective tea. The Yun Shen effect could ensure that he wouldn't be in danger tonight, unless he was hit by a particularly powerful attack.

As for the refreshing effect, it could also ensure that he wouldn't be drowsy or faint, but could concentrate his mind.

In some ways, this was actually very important. After all, after he went to the battlefield tonight, he would definitely be the most dazzling person in the entire area.

Zhou Ren put on a suit of iron armor, also wearing the diamond chestplate on his body, and then automatically hid it, grabbing his flame-enchanted longbow.

Before he had more ranged attack methods, this bow would accompany him for a long time. Zhou Ren continued to take the shield and weapons.

After thinking about it, he made a battle axe, made a war hammer, and then made another long sword. He didn't have any materials to make a staff yet, otherwise he would have made two staves.

He'd wait until the Tree of Life grew a bit bigger, so he could chop some branches or something.

This was considered a meeting gift for a few people. At least, a few professional combatants should be interested in these meeting gifts, Zhou Ren thought.

He took out a few blank books from the bookshelf next to him. The people of this world were still using books made of parchment. Perhaps they would be very interested in these white books.

He didn't know how the mages of this world released magic. He'd ask Mosa on the stage later.

Thinking this, Zhou Ren hurriedly embarked on his journey with the things in his hands.

The terrifying roar in the distance seemed to be getting more and more intense. Those monsters were slowly and gradually advancing, accompanied by the shouts from those strange creations around them. Some orcs and goblins who had been behaving normally also began to make carnival-like howls.

For these monsters living in the wilderness, attacking human towns was in itself one of their reasons for celebration. The prosperous human towns always brought them endless surprises.

Unlike the barren wilderness, where there was nothing, even the orcs further south didn't want to go north to this desolate and lonely place, which was also constantly swept by fierce winds.

But today, under the increasingly fierce winds, they still came. When Zhou Ren walked onto the city wall, many people were on standby here.

Anna still had a loud and boisterous appearance, "That dragon didn't come today, we can totally fight!"

Shia stopped her, "The teacher is currently in Val City. Once a legendary combat force attacks, we may not be able to win!"

She also had her own considerations. Compared to this attack, Zhou Ren's previous proposal was of course more important, so O'Halloran had unhesitatingly gone to Val City.

But she never expected that as soon as this legendary druid left, those demons would launch an attack.

“As long as that green dragon isn't involved, winning with our lineup will be a piece of cake. It's not like all the monsters in the Northern Wilderness are going to team up, right?” Anna said. “Locke, how are your preparations coming along?”

Locke ignored her, still dealing with the matters at hand. Only after he had completely signed the documents in his hand did he stand up and walk out of the camp.

“Ignoring me… Has he become so arrogant just because he advanced to a high-level professional?” Anna fumed. “I… If we weren't at war right now, I'd really like to beat him up!”

“Alright, say less!” Xi Ya pulled her back. “If you really want to continue living in our elven society, and not just wander around here before returning to Dragon Island, these are things you need to learn!”

“You need to learn to have enough respect for any professional above the high-level. Even I wouldn't yell at a town leader who is also a high-level professional!” she said. “Otherwise, you won't be liked!”

“I've been like this since I was little…” Anna muttered. She had also noticed the strange reactions of the people around her recently. “I'll change! This place is much more interesting than Dragon Island. I don't want to go back and face the old man's grumpy face!”

“Then you should try more!” Zhou Ren said. “You're actually pretty kind at heart, it's just that your personality is a bit nasty!”

He walked over just in time to hear the two of them talking. “Anna, how are the preparations for your auction coming along?”

Hearing this, Anna, who had been feeling a little dejected, immediately perked up. “Ah! Let me tell you, when I contacted those people, they didn't believe it. How could there be such good stuff?”

Zhou Ren smiled and shook his head. “Then have you solved your problem?”

“What's there to solve? As long as they know about this, they'll definitely come when we open! Those legendary professionals, they don't do anything serious all day long. They're really idle!”

The newest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

Anna said, quickly slowing down her tone and asking, “Hey? They said my personality is very bad, is it really true?”

“Hmm?” Zhou Ren replied. “If you didn't have such strong strength with that personality of yours, you would be beaten!”

But then he said, “But it's not like there's no way to salvage it. I'll teach you. See Princess Xi Ya next to you? If you were like her and spoke less and observed more, wouldn't that be a little better?”

“Like her, being a silent gourd all day long? No way!” Anna said dejectedly. “I'll change, I'll change! Can't you give Anna, who is changing, a little reward?”

“Hahaha!” The little silver dragon, who usually had such a proud demeanor, showing such an expression was really interesting, especially after discovering the indifference of the people around her. She also knew that her behavior seemed a little unpopular.

Zhou Ren smiled and threw out two coins. These were two simple copper coins, each containing a little experience value.

“Then I'll give you these to try first! I don't even have many of these brand-new coins myself. Perhaps they will be of some use to you?”

“I know this. It contains something called experience value, right?” Anna said. “Wow, this shiny thing is so pretty. You're not planning on promoting this kind of currency, are you?”

“Hmm? Don't tell me you want to rob me?” Zhou Ren raised an eyebrow.

“I know I can't rob you, you big monster, but those people in my clan may not know!” Anna reminded him. “This thing of yours is really beautiful. If it were piled up together, it would be much more beautiful than the standard coins of the Church of the Goddess of Wealth!”

“You don't have to worry about that. The people who can own this kind of coin should probably be people above high-level professionals. Instead, you should worry about whether those clansmen of yours will have problems!”

Zhou Ren said.

The value of just one gold coin is more than 4,000 standard gold coins. The main reason he wants to create a currency system is the experience value contained in the coins.

Previously, the legendary O'Hare had already tested the value of the experience value contained within, so this time he just wanted to confirm it again.

One is a quasi-legendary, and the other is a high-level dragon. Letting them try the experience value contained in the copper coins, can it bring him a little help?

This is very important for him to continue evaluating the value of the currency. The warning to Anna is also about the same. Giving this little silver dragon a little sweetness is the only way to continue the next thing, right?

“Lord Mosa, I'm afraid your master isn't here…” The two people who walked in hadn't finished speaking when they saw the two girls inside experiencing the power of the copper coins, and Zhou Ren standing aside with a smile.

“Master!” Mosa lowered his head and slowly walked to Zhou Ren's side. He was waiting for things here to end before reporting the situation to his master.

And the person who had just spoken beside him was the newly arrived high-level priest, Drusilla Amagil.

When she saw Zhou Ren, she knew that she had misspoke and quickly apologized, “I'm sorry, Lord Zhou Ren, I didn't see your arrival! The town leader asks you to go to the front line!”

Zhou Ren nodded and said to the people around him, “In that case, I'll give you this coin for now. We'll go to the front line first!”

If he were giving away gold coins, he might still feel a little heartache, after all, they were very high-priced metal currencies, but copper coins were nothing. It only takes a little experience and 2/9 of a copper ingot for a copper coin, which actually doesn't have much value in his eyes.

But he could only keep these words in his heart and not say them to others. If even he himself didn't respect the value of this currency, he probably wouldn't be able to promote it.

As they walked, Zhou Ren listened to Mosa explaining beside him, learning about the main opponents of this attack.

“Orcs? Or Half-Orcs?” Zhou Ren said, which made the elves around him, who were already a little relaxed, tense up all of a sudden.

“What? Half-Orcs?” Dela was a little surprised. “Isn't this attack supposed to be the servants of that green dragon? Some Kobolds, Gnolls, or other monsters? Even a few Goblin tribes would be fine!”

“We forgot this possibility, but the Northern Wilderness itself should be the habitat of Half-Orcs!”

Xi Ya said, “That being said, the war has already escalated. This isn't an asymmetrical battle against the green dragon, but a warning of an Orc war!”

“I will immediately inform Silvermoon City of this news. You help defend here first!” This elven princess showed a side that was completely different from her usual gentleness, becoming somewhat unusually decisive.

“So, do the elves and orcs have some kind of feud?” Zhou Ren asked. He knew that Mosa should explain it to him.

PS: Still outside, only one update today. If I can get back, I can add more, bye!
