Fors chose to face Dorian with the utmost sincerity. Not only was she not blad by her teacher, but Dorian was also touched by her sincerity and beca even more trusting of this student.
Fors recounted her extraordinary experiences: before eting her fiancé, she was sowhat ignorant of the mystical world. Through her interactions with her fiancé, she learned much about the mystical world, but it was incomplete. It was not until she t teacher Dorian that she had a place to answer her questions and gradually gained a comprehensive understanding of the mystical world.
Dorian also spoke of his family's curse and the currently fragnted Abraham family.
Both teacher and student showed great sincerity, making the atmosphere of communication very harmonious.
At the end of the conversation, Dorian left behind the "Astrologer" potion formula.
Fors glanced at it: "Sequence 7: Astrologer.
Main materials: teorite crystal, Lavos squid blood crystal.
Supplentary materials:…"
"Thank you for your help, teacher Dorian, this is exactly what I need." Fors was telling the truth. Although she could get potion formulas at a lower cost than the market price from Hobert, even so, the "Astrologer" formula would still cost at least seven or eight hundred pounds.
Dorian smiled slightly: "Finding the main materials for the 'Astrologer' potion is a test for you. As long as you can find one of them, I will provide you with the other main material."
Fors had a more real understanding of the "Angel Family". Even after more than a thousand years, they still had a huge foundation!
After thanking Dorian again, Fors said, "Teacher, I saw soone at a Beyonder gathering buying dragon-patterned tree bark. I wonder if you have any there?"
Dorian smiled slightly: "This is a coincidence of fate. In addition to the main material for 'Trickmaster', I also brought a few mystical ingredients, one of which is more than ten grams of dragon-patterned tree bark.
"I usually wouldn't carry such materials with , but I happened to bring them this ti."
...
Feynapotter, Jeffrey Town.
Hobert was planning to call Philip and others to deploy the matters of the ntor of Disorder ritual and the subsequent construction work in Jeffrey Town.
Seel suddenly ca to report: "Lord, Knight Louis and Knight Duke request to see you."
Hobert was stunned for a mont, pondered for a while, and then said: "Let them wait for in the main hall."
A few minutes later, Hobert ca to the main hall of the lord's mansion. Albert Louis and Grove Duke imdiately knelt on one knee: "Lord!"
Hobert was not surprised by the two people's sudden "enthusiasm".
These two people can be regarded as the most knowledgeable people in Hobert's territory. Through Hobert's series of policies and the giant beast's corpse on the shore of Full Moon Lake, they certainly understood that this was a lord who had both the ans and the martial prowess.
Of course, they ca at this ti to express their loyalty.
After Hobert sat down, he looked at the two people and then said: "In my territory, every inch of land and every subject must be under my rule.
"You can now move to Jeffrey Town, one to serve as 'Judicial Knight' and the other to serve as 'Taxation Knight'. These are two lucrative positions."
Albert and Grove opened their mouths wide together. They never expected that the "cost" of allegiance would be so high: giving up the territory inherited from their ancestors.
They quietly looked at the unsmiling Hobert, and determined that he was not joking, nor was he like other nobles who were asking for the sky-high price, waiting for them to bargain.
They realized at the sa ti that if they didn't do this, they would face more serious consequences.
"Tis have changed." Hobert spread his hands: "If local nobles don't want to be eliminated in this torrent, they can only lean towards the center, and the center in the territory is !
"Now I can give you generous conditions and solve this problem peacefully. If I take the initiative to find you after a while, you will not be able to keep anything."
The two knights fell into contemplation together. In the past when the waterway was prosperous, the local nobles of Southern Kerr were suppressed by the king in Feynapotter City to the point where they only had honorary titles left. When the waterway was interrupted and this place was isolated from the world, the system imdiately regressed and returned to the land aristocratic era of two or three hundred years ago.
In Southern Kerr, formal barons and viscounts had to bow their heads to so terrifying forces. Even the lords enfeoffed by the king could not manage this closed area.
Nobles with titles had to make huge compromises, even close to being puppets.
However, the most basic knight class was greatly preserved. Their fiefdoms were generally based on villages. In order to maintain the stability of the grassroots, the interests of most knights were protected, and their power was even consolidated.
At this ti, the powerful lord in front of them suddenly wanted to take back the ruling power of the territory, and the two knights were of course difficult to choose.
Hobert was not in a hurry and waited for them to "consider clearly".
In fact, there was nothing to consider. As long as they dared to say no, Hobert planned to kill one on the spot to establish his prestige. He estimated that the other would imdiately yield.
However, Hobert underestimated the two knights' endurance. After considering for more than twenty minutes, the two almost simultaneously expressed their willingness to accept the lord's arrangent.
A smile finally appeared on Hobert's face: "Albert Louis, right?"
Albert imdiately bowed and said: "Yes."
"You have a Sealed Artifact, but you are not an Beyonder!"
Albert was slightly stunned: "Lord, you have a unique vision. In order to express my loyalty to you, I will offer the ancestral…"
"I am not interested in your Sealed Artifact." Hobert smiled: "If you do your job well and are loyal enough, I will give you a choice in three months.
"You can choose to beco an 'Arbiter' or a 'Lawyer'!"
The carrot and stick, a set of combined punches, will never be out of date.
Albert imdiately knelt on the ground and said excitedly: "I choose 'Arbiter'!"
Becoming an "Arbitrator" was the dream of their three generations, but the Feynapotter Kingdom was similar to the Loen Kingdom, and had very strict control over the Beyonder characteristics of the "Justiciar" pathway. They had never had the opportunity to beco an "Arbiter".
After Albert expressed his determination to be loyal, Hobert looked at Grove again: "Grove Duke! Which pathway are you an Beyonder of?"
Grove imdiately bowed and said: "Lord, I am a 'Lawyer'."
Hobert smiled slightly: "Similarly, if you perform well enough in these three months, I will give you the potion formula for 'Barbarian'."
He once again received Grove's allegiance.
"It's almost New Year's Day. The lord's mansion will hold a New Year's celebration. You can stay in the lord's mansion for the ti being to facilitate participation in this event." Hobert said:
"Let your servants move your hos to Jeffrey Town, and then go ho to appease your families."
Before completely taking over the territories of the two knights, Hobert would of course not let them go back.
After coming out of the main hall of the lord's mansion, the two knights looked at each other and felt that the current situation was sowhat unreal.
They were originally under the great pressure of the new lord to express their obedience and allegiance, but now their territories were gone and they had beco direct subordinates of the lord's mansion.
At the sa ti, they seed to have a better future. As long as they served the new lord with their hearts for three months, they would be able to obtain the potions and potion formulas they had dread of before!
Then the two exchanged a few polite words and, under the supervision of the lord's guards, went to order their servants to move their hos.
In the main hall of the lord's mansion, as soon as the two knights left, a majestic figure sitting on a high-backed chair and surrounded by gray fog suddenly appeared in Hobert's mind.
It was "The Fool"!
Then the picture changed and a female voice of prayer appeared: "…Respected Mr. Fool, please tell Mr. Emperor that I have found the dragon-patterned tree bark, and 10 grams will cost 500 pounds."
The picture ended, and Hobert was a little dumbfounded: judging from the dress, it should be Fors.
He returned to the study, locked the door, and prayed to the Fool: "The Fool who does not belong to this era…, Respected Mr. Fool, I am willing to accept this transaction. The 500 pounds can be deducted from my inco at the Tarot Gathering."
At the end of yesterday's gathering, Hobert asked Mr. Fool to temporarily keep the rewards sacrificed by Alger and others, and after completing the transaction with "The Hanged Man", he would bestow the traded materials and the remaining rewards to himself.
He didn't expect that the transaction with "The Hanged Man" had not yet been completed, and Fors had found the dragon-patterned tree bark in advance.
This made Hobert couldn't help but sigh: The resources of the Tarot Gathering are becoming wider and wider. Audrey represents the resources of the Loen nobles and the "Psychology Alchemists", Alger represents the mariti resources, and "Little Sun" represents the City of Silver. Now, Fors represents the resources of the Abraham family.
Hobert completed the prayer, thinking that he would be able to complete the transaction imdiately, but who knew that after waiting for a while, Fors ca over: "Hobert, I have good news!"
She had just returned from Dorian's place, so of course she couldn't go back imdiately to get the dragon-patterned tree bark, so she prepared to trade it at night.
Fors said to Seel: "You go out first."
Seel glanced at the lord, and after seeing Hobert nod slightly, he bowed slightly to the two of them, ca outside the study, and closed the door.
"Teacher Dorian didn't bla !" Fors smiled.
"I told you, your sincerity will definitely move him." Hobert knew Dorian's importance to Fors, and also knew Fors's role to Dorian. He had long "foreseen" this result.
The two had just chatted a few words when Seel outside said: "Lord, Albert hopes to talk to you alone."
Seel was very respectful to these two "Knight Lords", but after seeing their humble appearance in front of the lord, he felt that these knights were just like that.
So the original "Knight Louis" has now beco "Albert".
Hobert was stunned. Didn't he say that he didn't want his Sealed Artifact?
Several Grade 2 Sealed Artifacts are still lying in the "Nation of Disorder". He really doesn't like Grade 3 now: "Let him in."
Albert entered the study: "Lord."
Then he looked at Fors on the side.
Hobert said: "This is my fiancée. Just say whatever you have to say. There is no need for her to avoid it."
He had already prepared to refuse the other party's offer of the Sealed Artifact, but who knew that Albert said: "Lord, I am here to tell you a shocking secret?"
"Your intention… um? Speak."
Albert lowered his voice and said: "Grove has already pledged allegiance to Viscount Teuton!"
Hobert was imdiately stunned, not surprised by the secret Albert said, but realized that these two bottom-level nobles imdiately showed their noble colors after deciding to pledge allegiance to the lord: attacking each other.
But Hobert had to deal with these broken things at this ti: "Are you sure?"
"Absolutely true!" Albert said: "My squire has seen Grove send envoys to Viscount Teuton more than once."
Hobert nodded, was about to speak, but suddenly thought of another thing.
The study imdiately fell into silence, and the invisible pressure made Albert breathless.
After a full half a minute, Hobert suddenly smiled: "Very good, the information you told is very useful! You go back first, I will properly solve this matter."
Albert breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes!"
Hobert deliberately said to Seel in front of Albert: "Call Grove here."
Albert showed a happy expression, feeling that he had already occupied a favorable position in this matter.
After Albert left, Fors on the side whispered: "I think he should also have contact with Viscount Teuton."
"Double-dealing is the nature of nobles." Hobert smiled: "These two knights are afraid that the other will expose their old secrets first, so of course they have to rush to inform!
"According to common sense, this matter can only be resolved through several argunts, and ultimately it will be unresolved due to insufficient evidence, but this has removed a piece of Albert's heart disease.
"Even if soone ntions this matter again in the future, the lord will not punish them for this matter."
Fors shook her head: "I am indeed not suitable for politics."
"However, I don't plan to deal with it according to the usual practice among nobles."
Fors was stunned: "Do you want to punish them now?"
"Punishing them for insufficient evidence will put them on the moral high ground." Hobert smiled: "Moreover, Grove is more useful to now.
"Watch the show quietly for a while, and don't make a sound."
Fors nodded.
Seel soon brought Grove over. After learning that Albert had co in advance, he secretly said sothing bad.
He had to prepare to bite Albert back and then enter the stage of arguing as soon as possible.
Who knew that as soon as Grove arrived at the lord's study, he heard the lord ask: "Does Viscount Teuton trust you very much?"
Grove quickly knelt on the ground: "Lord, in the past few years, this territory had no owner, I…"
"You only need to answer , to what extent does Viscount Teuton trust you?" Hobert said: "I have a task for you to do. After it is done, you will be given a huge reward."
