Chapter 25 Expansion (7)
Faced with Abraham's threat, Jing Hua seemed not to understand.
"Since I promised to do it, I would naturally compete on the spot without delay. It is too troublesome to find helpers now. If you feel it is unfair, what if you might as well add a lottery?"
"What?"
In an instant, everyone stared at hearing hallucinations and widened their eyes. Abraham frowned and asked, "Baron Oriental, do you say you don't have a helper...you want a lottery?"
"Yes...If I lose, the Goth Barons and others will do as you say. If I win by chance, can Lord give the "Lion King Castle" the privilege of trading and exempt the relevant taxes and inspections of "Millpan Castle"..."
“Haha…hehe…”
Abraham laughed furiously. The Baron of the East was afraid of being crazy about money, and he fought against Leon and Davis with one against two, and was also thinking about the taxes of his own caravan.
The faces of the guests around him were strange, and a few couldn't help but squirt out. Goth, Sander and others looked at each other, shocked and confused. "Oriental Martial Arts" pretended to be crazy and stupid. Is it because they deliberately admit defeat and show goodwill to Prince White?
Only Kushner Adler's eyes shrank slightly, and he felt thoughtful.
He just told the other party in advance that there was a "gray-robed mage" in the "Millpan Castle", and it was impossible for the Eastern Baron to be unprepared. Through Moran's description, Kushner understood that "Oriental Martial Arts" was by no means a reckless person. No one knew the trade benefits of the Adler family better than him.
The Goth family owns "Blind City", "Swan City" and "Iron Wood City", and has nearly 200 guards under their command. Even so, their strength is still not as good as the "Lion King Castle". One of the reasons is that the Adler family's full support for the Oriental clan.
The gap between the two sides, from equipment to training, is ultimately the amount of finance allocated.
If the Oriental family really gets the privilege of trading, the Adler family's income will be greatly increased, which will further promote the development of the "Lion King Castle". Of course, the premise is that the Oriental Baron can really show his power and defeat the two powerful men of the "Minepan Castle".
"well......"
Abraham picked up the wine glass and signaled: "...As the Baron's suggestion, as long as you can win, don't mention the 'Millpan Castle', the 'Lion King Castle' caravan can pass at will without paying taxes under the jurisdiction of the Salazar family!"
He raised his glass and drank the fruit wine inside, turned his head and stopped looking at "Dongfangwu".
The other party was proud of his own strength and was extremely arrogant. If he had known that the Eastern Baron was stupid and arrogant, he would not have to take it seriously, and he would have spent a lot of effort in vain.
After finishing the words, there was no room for reversal. At that moment, everyone rushed out of the main hall and came to the garden outside.
The bright moon hangs high, and countless torches lit up around it, illuminating the garden like daytime. The duel between the "Gray-robed men" is very dangerous. The guests hid far away and stared at them to watch the duel.
Davis is actually not Leon's entourage, but the two are experienced and know how to cooperate with each other.
They were two in front and one behind. Davis held the shield with his sword and stood in front of Leon. The "Gray Robe Mage" chanted spells behind him. He was not very skilled, and three skeletons appeared out of thin air and were ready to move with Davis.
The skeletons wore iron helmets and wore rotten armor. The swords in the bone claws were faintly green, which was obviously not the ordinary person they usually encountered. Abraham nodded secretly, and the undead summoned by the "gray robe mage" was powerful and each one was not inferior to the regular warriors. As long as Leon was given enough time to cast spells, he was almost invincible.
As expected, Baron Oriental stood opposite him with a smile, without any intention of taking the lead in attacking.
The "Gray-robed Monk" should take advantage of the enemy's spell casting to defeat Davis first and then deal with Leon with all his strength. Even if he cannot defeat Davis, he must disrupt Leon's rhythm so as not to fall into a siege. It seems very abnormal to sit and watch the opponent prepare in front of him.
Many guests asked privately whether the Baron of the East had been hit recently, causing his mind to change greatly and his behavior was erratic. Abraham came to Kushner and said loudly in his finger field: "Mr. Adler, would you like to make a bet with me?"
The Adler family supports the "Lion King Castle", and it is not a secret on the Xiche border. Abraham thought for a long time that His Royal Highness's rebellion not only requires territory but also wealth.
Behind other chambers of commerce are either supported by the duke or a marquis, the Adler family has been around for a short time, not very large in scale, and relatively simple in background. Inviting Kushner to "Millpan Castle" to do business is already a sign of winning over. Now, when it comes to such an event, how could Abraham give up the opportunity?
Kushner bowed and replied, "Hiss Viscount, what do you want to bet on?"
"The Adler family once married the 'Lion King Castle', you see... If the Baron Oriental wins later, I will pay three times the previous payment. If he loses, those goods will be treated as gifts to the 'Milling Pack'. What do you think?"
Kushner pondered for a moment, nodded and replied, "Okay, I've bet."
The guests next to them were either rich or noble. The Viscount Lord openly prying the corner of the "Lion King Castle", so they couldn't hear it. At that moment, five or six wealthy businessmen followed suit and wanted to bet with the Adler family, and Kushner responded one by one.
The chat was full of enthusiasm outside the court, and there was a change in the court. Seeing that he was ready, Davis raised his right arm and signaled: "Baron Oriental, be careful..."
The other party stood quietly and waited without interrupting Master Leon's casting, and his behavior showed a "gentlemanly demeanor". Although Davis did not agree in his heart, he had to make corresponding statements.
Jing Hua nodded slightly. He waved his left hand lightly and a "doll" appeared in the middle of the garden.
The "doll" grows in the wind and is instantly over a meter taller. It wears a black ancient helmet and black leather armor. Its white hair is sparse on its body, and its skin is dark inside.
“Huh…”
"What..."
Others were puzzled by others, but they were familiar with Leon, Davis, Abraham and others. The other party "summoned" a follower, and the Baron was indeed a mage.
However, unlike Master Leon, the other party's "minister" does not appear out of thin air, but changes from small to large. Such "summoning techniques" do not require chanting mantras, which is very different from the methods they are familiar with.
Leon is a necromancer, and he knows more clearly that the other party summons a dead soul. The mysterious armored undead spirit should be of the type of zombie, but it is completely different from the zombies he has seen. He can hardly sense death energy around his body, and his helmet and leather armor have no light at all, and it seems to be an ordinary person.
The black zombie stood in the distance and was motionless, in sharp contrast to the swaying skeleton. As a necromancer, Leon could not sense the level of the zombie.
Judging only on the surface, the Xuan-armored zombies seem to be the lowest-class undead. Mage Leon has extraordinary eyesight and found that the zombie's helmet, leather armor, and even the body are covered with strange patterns, which do not look like a bluffing decoration.
What Jing Hua took out was the "Daowei". Before entering the Nalan world, the "Master Wuji" personally handed him over to him for self-defense.
Due to the limitation of cultivation, Jing Hua was unable to use the high-level "Daowei". The tool in front of him was refined with a "white-haired zombie", and his body was half-off, and he was about to advance to the "Black Iron Corpse".
The "Yi Shenzong" has been passed down for thousands of years, and it is unique to refining "Daowei". The conditions for selecting white-haired zombies are harsh, and they must be foundation-building martial artists before death. After secret techniques and the blessing of Xuanwen, the combat power of zombies will still be improved.
Guanyue Continent’s magical Taoism, how can people in Nalan’s world see it? Leon, Abraham and others originally despised them, but only thought the Eastern Baron was a arrogant idiot. At this moment, they woke up as if they were unfamiliar spells and "summoners", and they regained their opponents from the "Lion King Castle".
However, the arrow was on the string and had to be fired. Leon and Davis looked at each other and nodded silently.
