Chapter 57 The Coronation
I can't hold it any longer so quickly.
Zhou Li squinted his eyes and slowly looked around. The original joy, excitement, and happiness had dissipated from these nobles. At this time, only the greed of hungry wolves remained on their faces. They glanced around
My body seemed to be observing a delicious piece of cake, considering which piece was more delicious.
"oh?"
Zhou Li leaned back quietly, with a slightly puzzled expression on his face, and asked curiously: "Then how are you going to change the contract?"
"Don't worry, we have already prepared a very reasonable and detailed plan."
Carter Roland stretched out his hand, and the maid on the side handed him a document inlaid with gold edges. Carter Roland walked up to Zhou Li and handed the paper to Zhou Li respectfully.
Zhou Li glanced at the piece of paper, glanced at it roughly, and then impatiently took the pen on the side and signed his name. At this time, he could feel the excitement in the air.
"Praise for your generosity!"
Carter Roland stretched out his arms and said to Zhou Li extremely happily: "The duel will begin soon. I look forward to seeing you shine in a while."
Then he made a gentleman's salute, and while bending down, he whispered to Zhou Li: "If I were you, I would definitely take a good look at the contents of this contract."
Zhou Li raised his eyebrows. He seemed to have thought of something and quickly looked at the terms in his hand.
Looking at the content above, in addition to the general rules, what he expected was that "any party that violates fairness will be punished." But he had no words and read on calmly. When he saw "
Final terms." A smile appeared in his eyes unconsciously.
"If Zhou Li fails in this battle, he will work hard to cultivate without getting involved in worldly matters. The unclaimed territory he illegally expropriated will be taken back and he will receive a certain amount of compensation."
"If Don Quixote fails, she will voluntarily become Zhou Li's subordinate. At the same time, all the nobles participating in this event will provide help to Zhou Li."
"Is this what you want?"
Putting down the contract, Zhou Li leaned beside the podium and asked with slight anger to the nobles and Carter Roland in the audience: "You want to get involved in the farmhouse?"
"No, no, no, we have signed a contract, and we cannot get involved in the farmhouse."
Carter Rowland waved his hands repeatedly, then he cleared his throat and stood up straight, as if he was speaking on behalf of an extremely important person, very majestic.
"It is not us who want to take back this land that is full of crises and affects homeland security. It is our constitution and the parliament that decide together."
"oh?"
Zhou Li drooped his eyelids and said speciously: "Are you talking about the parliament and constitution that have been controlled by the king's lineage?"
"I have no idea."
Carter Roland bowed in greeting and said apologetically: "I don't know much about this. After all, I am just an ordinary earl and have no right to participate in such a noble high-level decision. But Mr. Zhou Li, please allow me to say that,
I suggest you sign this agreement. We built this fortress, and it’s not just a few nobles who are here today, our guards and the king’s guard are also here.”
"That is to say, if I don't sign today, I will be controlled by you. When the time is up, I will automatically lose, or will you count me as a winner?"
Zhou Li looked at Carter Roland and asked with a slight smile: "The treaty we signed is only valid for the other party, but the king's guard does not seem to be included, right?"
"What a pity. I hope you can remember today's lesson."
Carter Rowland shook his head with a hint of regret, "You have a smart mind, but unfortunately, your dignity covered your eyes. You didn't bother to study the contract text, so you didn't realize the trap."
"No, it's not a pity."
Zhou Li tapped the tabletop of the podium with his index finger, and said to Carter Roland and the nobles in the audience: "It seems that you came to trap me today, not just because of the king's instructions."
The king alone would not dare to offend a future hero. Therefore, there must be greater strength behind this.
"Let me guess, guess."
Zhou Li sat on the podium, raised a finger, and said to everyone: "The current situation is that you want me to sign this overlord treaty, and then use all means to make me lose in this duel.
The result of this is that this Goblin Farmhouse with unlimited potential will be sold to you at a low price like cabbage, and you will still pretend that this is humanitarian care, right?"
Hearing this, Carter Rowland shrugged noncommittally, with a touch of relief on his face.
"but."
However, Zhou Li extended his second finger without ending the conversation, "It's not just that simple, right?"
"You dare to offend me because after this duel, I will become a ruthless machine of the church, right?"
Is this sentence correct? It directly made Carter Rowland, who had always been calm and calm, feel like he was struck by lightning. His pupils tightened, and then he forced himself to calm down and said with a smile: "What are you talking about? The duel will start soon, why don't you go?
What?"
"Look, you could obviously subdue me directly and make me miss the duel and fail, but you didn't do that."
Zhou Li looked at Carter Roland, who had cold sweat on his head, with some confusion, and a joking look appeared on his face: "It's not that you can't, it's that you don't dare."
"You were afraid that I would stay here, not participate in the duel, and ruin the church's plan. So you threatened me with bluff from the beginning, reminding me that if I stayed here, I would be automatically judged as the loser, and you wanted to make me panic.
Hurry to the ring. Including the fact that you reminded me of the contract is to increase my alertness to the contract and make me pay attention to the contents of the contract and create a sense of crisis. In this case, I will honestly go to the ring to make the last ditch effort.
,Is it right?"
"Guard! Grab him! Throw him in the ring!!!"
Seeing that his plan was exposed, Carter Roland immediately retreated and roared at the shadows around him. However, he saw the king's shadow guard suddenly froze in place, staring at Zhou on the stage.
Li. When he looked at Zhou Li in front of him in confusion, he suddenly felt fear.
"Black gunpowder can produce devastating explosions, and at the same time, it can be limited to a very small range to prevent it from spreading to others. However, black gunpowder is not easy to transport. It cannot pass through the void dimension and can only be transported through primitive transportation. For
?”
Zhou Li, who was sitting on the podium, held his chin with one hand and kept throwing a black piece of standard black gunpowder with a detonation mark in his other hand. He looked at the crowd and his smile gradually brightened:
"See if you don't know, let me tell you that I am not threatening you with blowing myself up with this piece of black powder."
Looking at Carter Roland, whose expression softened slightly, Zhou Li cracked the corner of his mouth, stood up, and kicked open the somewhat hollow floor on the side. When the black powder covered by the floor and fully hidden appeared in front of everyone, the air was filled with excitement.
A smell of urine suddenly emerged. Apparently, some people were so frightened that they became incontinent.
"How is it possible! Those who built this building are all our people! It only took us one day! How could you put all this black powder in it!!!"
"Are they all your people?"
Zhou Li smiled, then waved, and shouted to the crowd as if he was looking for an old friend: "Okay, come here, you will lose your life after being implicated by these mentally retarded people, and it's time for your sister to fight for me.
."
Then, under the gaze of everyone, the blond young man who had maintained zero presence in the crowd touched his head, stood up with a shy look, apologized to everyone, and walked up to Zhou Li.
"Ivy!!!!"
No one expected that the person who was the least likely to defect to Zhou Li would actually do so.
Carter Roland immediately glared and said angrily: "Your sister was caught by him, and your chamber of commerce was suppressed by him! He has bullied you so much and you are still helping him!"
"You are a smart man."
Neither Zhou Li nor Ivy paid attention to Carter Roland's barking. Zhou Li said calmly to Ivy: "You dare to risk your life and personally deliver black powder to me. In order not to arouse suspicion, you still have to pay attention to it."
I have been surrounded by black powder and persisted until now without showing any signs of timidity. You are very good."
"It's an honor to make up for my previous stupidity."
Aiwei bent down to salute, and Zhou Li patted him on the shoulder. After scanning for a week, he said to all the nobles: "I now announce that the Aiwei Chamber of Commerce will become a subsidiary chamber of commerce of the brave Zhou Li. Who is in favor and who is against it?"
There was silence.
Zhou Li winked at Ivey, who suddenly understood and walked straight out of the gate. He did not look at the nobles behind him. In the past, as an emerging noble, he was always the humblest person. However,
Today, he walked straight with a despicable appearance in the eyes of these people.
"Fake! It's all fake!"
Ai Fuxiaogou in the audience was suddenly startled, pointed at Zhou Li tremblingly, and said to him: "These are illusions! Illusions! Not black powder!"
"oh?"
Zhou Li smiled, and then he threw the black gunpowder out of the window. The terrifying sonic boom reminded everyone that these are not things for children to play with. These are enough to make these people go to their graves a hundred times.
Terrorist explosives.
"Zhou Li...calm down! Calm down!"
Knowing that it was impossible for Zhou Li not to guard against the shadow assassins, there was no way to make the bomb detonate under certain conditions. Carter Rowland stretched out his hand and said tremblingly: "Think about it, if you detonate the bomb, whether you can survive or not is a matter of course.
Problem! Even if you survive, you will be against the entire kingdom! Think about it!"
"Do I care?"
Zhou Li arrogantly assumed a strange posture, with his right hand on his hips and his left hand pointing forward, his legs spread apart very arrogantly, "First of all, I will definitely survive."
Zhou Li, who was dragged into the void and released by the Linghai, had a haircut and said to everyone in astonishment: "The void is immune to external damage."
As for the second point…
"I don't care, I am a brave man."
Zhou Li took out the hero's exclusive, walked up to Carter Roland who dared not move, slapped Carter Roland's face with a book engraved with gilded characters, and whispered softly: "Even if I kill you all
, as long as I am willing to bow my head, the twelve churches will come to protect me."
"You are nothing."
"Everyone, my suggestion now is that you stay here well. I will set up a magic circle, as long as you leave two meters away from your current position..."
Zhou Li happily walked among the trembling nobles, put his hands together, and then exploded outwards, everything was self-evident.
"Now, I hope you all will come and say a word with me. Of course, I don't force you, but I don't know what Black Powder thinks."
Zhou Li, who looked innocent, walked to the podium. He sat on the podium table, looked down at the pale and bloodless nobles, and said with a smile:
"I will surrender to the supreme Black Emperor, and I will become the Black Emperor's most loyal subject."
"Come on, read it."
