Chapter 284: Becoming an Official
In the next few days, Lu Chen was still practicing his level, and the monsters killed by the real clone were all his, so his level was slowly raised. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
It's impossible to squeeze into the top ten in Linhai City, they all have their own mage groups with leveling. But if you want to squeeze into the top 100 level list, it is still easy for Lu Chen.
The situation in Linhai City has become more and more turbulent, since the Liangshan Brotherhood declared war on Qingyun Pavilion four days ago, the two giants have collided more than once on the eight maps near Linhai City, but there is no sign of all-out war for the time being.
Yuwen Demon God's side has been very busy these days, in addition to the development of the mercenary group, he also has to deal with the pressure from Qingyun Pavilion and the Liangshan Brotherhood, it is difficult to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, those two tigers are not so easy to deceive.
Therefore, the poisonous wolf mercenary group has also been attacked several times in the past two days, all of them are some members who are training outside, and they were inexplicably wiped out by the group, and they don't know who the other party is, so they can only eat this dumb loss by themselves.
In this regard, Lu Chen did not mean to tolerate it. Instructed the Yuwen Demon God to let a few trustworthy people bring a few first-order group attack magic scrolls, and when a ten-person team of the mercenary group was attacked again, they directly killed the other party with the magic scroll, leaving the other party with more than 20 corpses and more than 20 pieces of good equipment.
Since then, those who want to persecute or tempt have not appeared again, for fear that the madmen of the [Poisonous Wolf Mercenary Group] will use money to smash them. After all, those first-order magic scrolls were worth nearly 100,000 yuan, which was more than the money Lu Chen earned by assassinating Hu Baoyi once.
But this money must be paid, otherwise who knows what small actions the people behind it will do. In any case, Lu Chen did not plan to participate in the battle between the two giants.
It was noon in the game that day, and Lu Chen was practicing on the Stone Monkey Mountain deeper into the Stone Monkey Forest, and his opponent had become an adult stone monkey of level 20-25. When he inadvertently raised his head, he saw that several small towns and fortresses more than ten miles away from Linhai City were lit with beacon smoke.
The red beacon smoke soared, Lu Chen put away his two swords, and exhaled slightly, he couldn't tell whether he was happy or relieved, anyway, it was finally here.
Fish-Man Riot!
In the direction of Linhai City, a two-legged wyvern fluttered its wings, carrying an old acquaintance of Lu Chen, Vincent, a castle guard. Under the guidance of a crystal magic ball, he found Lu Chen, who was in Stone Monkey Mountain.
"Dear stargazer, Grand Duke Aberliham please!"
When they meet again, Vincent is no longer as casual as before, and his title also shows that Lu Chen's prophecy has been successful, and this trip is probably to be added to the official rank.
Lu Chen nodded, threw out the flying claw, Vincent accurately grabbed the flying claw, pulled Lu Chen onto the bipedal flying dragon, and flew towards the Duke's Fort in Linhai City.
The Ducal Castle is a complex building with a palace hidden in the castle. The duke is actually equivalent to the princes of ancient China, and he is not much different from the emperor, and there are also working meetings such as the early dynasty on weekdays.
This is not the first time Lu Chen has entered the Duke's Castle, but it is the first time he has stepped into the palace in the Duke's Castle. A group of magicians, civil servants and military generals lined up on the left and right, and cast friendly, jealous, or calm glances at Lu Chen.
Lu Chen has been prepared for this, the NPC world itself is very complicated, where there are interests, there are fights, and the Duke of Abriham is not all of one mind, and there are gangs everywhere.
"See Lord Duke!" Lu Chen's identity at this time was no longer the same, he was taken by Vincent to the position of the duke's throne in the center of the palace, and he just hugged his shoulders with one hand and bowed slightly.
"Mr. Poison Wolf, please get up, now that you are a noble stargazer, there is no need to be polite to meet again in the future."
The Western world is very realistic, and when you have no value, the other party dismisses you. When you show your worth, the other person will also show you respect accordingly.
System Prompt: Congratulations on successfully predicting [Fishman Riot], Stargazer XP +1000!
System Prompt: Stargazer Deputy Rank has been raised, congratulations on becoming a [Stargazer].
System Prompt: Congratulations on becoming a [Stargazer] and gaining 2000 World Fame Points!
It is not a joke that a stargazer is a world nobleman, the baronial title only needs two thousand prestige, and as soon as he becomes an official stargazer, Lu Chen's world aristocratic status will be a matter of course.
"Thank you, Lord Duke!"
"I called you here this time to ask you if you would like to be the dedicated stargazer of my Grand Duke of Abelliham. If you want, I can give you a barony, and a hundred private soldiers to help you protect the territory! ”
"Honorable Duke, I do!" Lu Chen has no reason to refuse, barons basically have no territory, even if they are viscounts, there are many people who just have an empty title and no territory.
There are also eight cities around Linhai City, which are the ones of eight marquises, and in addition to more than a hundred scattered counties and viscounts, all of which add up to form a dukedom.
In addition to the fiefdoms, the Grand Duke of Abriham had many fiefdoms on hand that could be used to divide them. Every year, some territories will be recovered due to various things, and some nobles who have not made merits over the years will also be stripped of their titles, so the duke is not afraid of not having a territory.
Trading a small piece of territory for a stargazer is good business for the royal family, let alone a duke.
"Good!" The duke asked people to take the magic map, showed some territories that were ready to be sealed but had not yet been sealed, and asked Lu Chen's wishes.
"I hope the Duke will give me the Fish-Man Bay." Lu Chen also had a plan for this, after the fish-man riot, the fish-man clan would not pose much threat to him, and the fish-man bay was offshore, and there was a suitable place for building a harbor nearby, which was a position he had to take.
"Oh... Fish-Man Bay... After conquering this place, I did order someone to build a town here as an outpost to stop the fish-men from counterattacking, but it has been abandoned over the years. ”
Grand Duke Abellihan was a little hesitant, even if Lu Chen chose the most prosperous tourist town closest to Linhai City, he was willing. But once the territory of Fishman Bay is given to Lu Chen, he will have to fund the reconstruction of the town, otherwise this reward will be a bit nondescript.
Rebuilding the town is a lot of money, but he wants to use the benefits to keep Lu Chen, not to ask Lu Chen to help him expand his territory, or to guard the sea frontier, so what he wants to reward must be good.
