Seven days later, Viscount Baihua returned to Baihua City.
Viscount Baihua told his adviser this matter with a gloomy face.
After hearing this, the counselor took a deep breath and sighed:
"This Xu Kuang is not simple."
"More than that, it's not simple. This guy's courage is as high as heaven. Now we have completely broken up with him. I'm afraid it's reached the point where we don't have him anymore."
Viscount Baihua frowned, his mind was racing, but he still had no good solution.
But the counselors around him deeply understood that to deal with Mushroom Ridge, one must be quick, otherwise Mushroom Ridge will soon grow into a transcendent force that can confront Baihua City head-on.
But if you want to control Mushroom Ridge, it is no longer possible to use troops.
The opportunity has been lost. If you continue to fight against Xu Kuang forcefully, I am afraid that the first one to jump out will not be Xu Kuang, but Earl Moriel.
This kingdom is so strange. It does not collect taxes from nobles, and it does not allow nobles to fight with each other, but it is helpless about the fights between nobles. In some places, the laws of the kingdom are not even as good as the face of the superior lords. All this all implies that the king
of incompetence.
Of course, the counselor was just thinking about this in his heart, and he would definitely not say it in front of Viscount Baihua.
Suddenly, the counselor thought of something!
He quickly looked at Viscount Baihua, his eyes burning, which surprised Viscount Baihua.
"Sir, although we can't use troops, we can still activate another article of the Noble Law."
"Which one?".
"Duel, nobles can duel.".
Duels are written in the laws of the kingdom. If there are conflicts between nobles, they can be resolved through duels. No matter how big the difference in strength is, as long as both parties agree, the duels can be carried out under the supervision of authoritative nobles.
The hope that was ignited in Viscount Baihua's heart was suddenly dashed.
"He will definitely not agree.".
The counselor smiled and said:
"That doesn't matter. We can use the recruitment method to recruit Xu Kuang and the people in his territory to do things so that he cannot develop."
Viscount Baihua's eyes lit up.
There is no way, the laws of this kingdom are like this. The lower the class, the greater the injustice. As the lowest level of the nobility, the baron is of course the most unfair treatment.
"Just do as the teacher said. Quick, prepare some clothes for me. I'm going to Mushroom Ridge."
The counselor smiled bitterly and said:
"I'll go with you this time. If we can't succeed this time, then we won't be able to restrain Xu Kuang at all in the future."
Viscount Baihua didn't say much. He knew that the situation was basically as analyzed by the counselor. There would be no store like this after passing this village.
…
seven days ago
Xu Kuang led everyone in Mushroom Ridge to accompany Moliel for a whole day. Mollie's strong curiosity about Mushroom Ridge made everyone in Mushroom Ridge feel a little painful, but they couldn't let it happen, so they could only accompany Moliel.
It was only at night that everyone was freed from this pain.
Zhuge Duan found Xu Kuang and said to Xu Kuang:
"Lord, we have to guard against it."
Xu Kuang asked in astonishment:
"What else do we need to guard against?".
Zhuge Duan took out a book of Kingdom Laws and pointed out some of the clauses above to Xu Kuang:
"If he invites you to a duel, what should you do? If you don't agree, he will definitely take advantage of the situation and use the recruitment method. We have to guard against such a countermeasure."
Xu Kuang only thought for a moment and realized that this kind of thing might happen.
It is difficult for Mushroom Ridge and Baihua City to live in peace anymore. Even if Xu Kuang has no intention of dealing with Viscount Baihua, in order to eliminate future troubles, Viscount Baihua will definitely deal with Xu Kuang first while Xu Kuang has not grown up.
This made Xu Kuang a little troubled. If there was a duel, his chances of winning would probably be very small.
"It seems I have to start with what I'm good at."
Xu Kuang is such a person, he will definitely speculate on the enemy's viciousness to the maximum extent.
After thinking for a while, he said to Zhuge Duan:
"I understand. Sir, please leave first. I know what I know."
After Zhuge Duan left, Xu Kuang quickly came to the laboratory.
This was the first place Xu Kuang renovated, from an earthen wall to a solid reinforced concrete wall. At this moment, the place was filled with various materials, and there were several figures busy in the laboratory.
Xu Kuang said hello to this group of people and went directly into his exclusive laboratory.
He didn't rush to make it, but started to check the mall.
After redeeming the powerful sleeping pills, he only had three mall points.
Xu Kuang sighed, closed the mall, and opened the functions one by one, but found nothing that was helpful to him.
He thought about the task. The task of filing a complaint has not been completed yet, which made Xu Kuang a little anxious. He knew that this could not be due to a system delay, but because Moriel did not believe him yet.
Xu Kuang didn't have time to think about why Moriel clearly didn't believe him and still wanted to give him the right to defend himself and fight back. He understood very well that now that Moriel came to Mushroom Ridge, he could no longer be as eager as before. Instead, he had to maximize the
Give Moriel freedom and minimize her own presence.
All in all, let Moriel see and see for herself, let her convince herself.
Xu Kuang scratched his head, put these troublesome things behind, and began to think of alchemy items related to combat.
A lot of alchemical items flashed through his mind. He thought carefully and finally selected some potions.
There was no way, the alchemy machinery in this world was completely supported by the magic circle and did not follow the mechanical principles at all. Xu Kuang really didn't like it, so he only chose some potions.
The first one is called formic acid remover, which is actually just sulfuric acid with added ingredients. The reason Xu Kuang chose this thing was because he had ready-made materials on hand and it was easy to make.
However, Xu Kuang is not prepared to do too much. This thing is a double-edged sword, and it will not be of much use if it is done too much.
The second type is called obstacle avoidance powder, which can resist the curse attack of the curse priest. Xu Kuang was always worried that Viscount Baihua would use tricks, so he prepared some of this.
The third type is called Furious Potion, which can temporarily increase strength, but at the cost of being weak for a period of time.
In addition, there are smoke bombs, lime powder, incendiary bombs, grenades, flash bombs...
Xu Kuang:......
He was suddenly speechless. Judging from these potions and equipment, the Alchemy Priest was really not a good thing.
Time flew by, and ten days passed without Moriel showing any signs of leaving, which made Xu Kuang a little uncomfortable.
On the eleventh day, the rain eased slightly.
Moriel found Xu Kuang and asked Xu Kuang to accompany her for a walk. Xu Kuang had no reason to refuse and had no choice but to agree.
Moriel looked at it and asked:
"I'm basically sure that what you said is right, but there is one thing that I don't quite understand. I hope you can answer it."
Xu Kuang smiled and said:
"Please tell me, Count, I will tell you everything I know."
